I deleted Octoshape and now videos won't stream

My MBP was running slower and slower so I went to the forums and it was suggested that Octoshape be deleted.
So I did that.  Now I can't get videos to stream from youtube, hulu, news sites etc... I have downloaded and installed
Flash Player a couple of times but still can't get the stream working.  UTube still gives me a message to update
Flash Player. ugh. Help!

Same problem here.  I have 20Mb connection speeds.  My wife's Iphone5 works fine. (Not upgraded from IOS 5 yet)
WiFi just drops off during stream.  It's on 'connect automatically' but doesn't reconnect. I then manually connect and repeat this.  However, it automatically connects and doesn't drop if web browsing. Only experienced during video streaming.
Same thing with Audio Podcasts. 
Tried clearing history, forgetting network and restating. 
I stupidly installed IOS6 on brand trust.  Wish I'd waited and checked reviews first.  iPhone gone from very useful device to painfully useless.

  • Updated to ios6 and now videos won't stream (YouTube etc.)

    Since updating to iOS6 on my iPhone4 I am now unable to stream videos on YouTube and other sights, the video will buffer about 5 seconds quite quickly then just stop :/. Be it playing videos off of safari or the new YouTube app. But this is only using wifi at my house, 3G and other people's networks work fine. It's not a case of it being my wifi because I am still running the same speeds as before the update and my laptop loads stuff fine. Anyone else having the same trouble?
    Cheers, Calv.

  • I deleted adobe and now files won't open with preview automatically like they use to. How do I fix this?

    I deleted adobe and now files won't open with preview automatically like they use to. How do I fix this?

    I think you solved my problem! Upon following your advice, I first got a message that I had not allowed a connection to the Tax dept computers, which would prevent the file I need to fill out from being e-filed. I proceeded to then open the file at the top of which was a security banner at which I chose the site as safe. I then filled in the first line of the form which autofilled other lines telling me I was connected with the tax site. In a few days when I have the data I need, I will actually attempt to file the return. If there is a problem, I will send another message. Thanks so much for your assistance!

  • Upgraded to the latest Keynote (5.3 1170) and now videos won't play in presentation mode, only audio

    Upgraded Keynote on my home and work computers to the latest version in the AppStore and now videos won't play in presentation mode.  In edit mode you can double click and it will play in the editor.  This happens on both computers running the latest version of ML (10.8.4).
    Any help here?  Alread tried a reinstall of ML on one machine with no luck.
    Was previously running Keynote 08 (non AppStore version).  Tried creating brand new presentations in 09, no luck.

    I had the same problem today in front of an audience with 300 people (MacbookPro OSX 10.10, Thunderbolt-VGA adapter, PPT 14.4.6).
    Here what I figured out so far:
    1. It happens when you have PPT open and connect to beamer afterwards
    2. You can resolve it (in my case) by quitting PPT and launching it WHEN connected to beamer
    3. Yet, make sure Mac does not go into sleep mode or you get a lock-screen in the waiting time. if you do so, you get back to square 1. quit PPT again 2. restart it.
    4. Also.... in one case I had to hit the volume control once to get the sound back even though movie was playing
    So in short: Connect to beamer first, then launch PPT
    I know it is only a symptom fix but it worked for me

  • I may have deleted something and now iPhoto won't load any longer.  Please help me

    I'm very new with my macbook pro and I have been using iPhoto from day one.
    However, I was messing around with the photos, and I deleted neccessary items for iPhoto unknowingly, now my iPhoto doesn't loat at all.
    It shows loading logo spinning but never load and screen is blank.
    Please help me get back my iPhoto.
    Thank you.

    Do you have any idea what you deleted? 
    Try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and try to create a new, test library.  If you can then the problem lies with the current library.
    If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I updated shockwave recently and now videos won't play in firefox, it says the addon has stopped working

    Can you tell me what version of shockwave I should have and how to update it so it works properly

    First, grab the Adobe uninstaller from here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
    Then download the latest Flash Plugin version from here:
    Select ''Plugin-based browsers'' - the EXE version.
    https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
    Run the Flash uninstaller program, then reboot your PC.
    Then install the Plugin version of Flash. So you'll have a clean installation of Flash for Firefox.

  • I restored my HDD and now iTunes won't stream music from the cloud.

    As title states, I replaced/restored the HDD in my Mac Mini and everything works perfectly except iTunes Match songs in the Cloud no longer stream in iTunes, they just skip to the next song. They all play fine when explicitly downloaded, but ihave many thousands of songs and it is supposed to work that way. I've tried many solutions and have also seen no one else with this problem. What am I missing here?
    Thanks,

  • I downloaded an app called 'Cinema but instead of promised movies got trailers. Then I deleted it etc A dvised on help page and now it won't reinstall any ideas? Have contacted itunes x 2 but no response and unable to contact app developers.

    I bought an app from itunes called 'Cinema' It promised loads of movies but all I got was trailers. No way to contact the developers of the app. So I followed the 'Support' advice and deleted etc and now it won't reinstall. there is no install button next to it!. It was only £6.99 so not a fortune but I'm wary of trying any others now. Where did I go wrong and how do I put it right?

    Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

  • ITunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video. Any thoughts on why not?

    iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
    I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
    iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
    Any thoughts or suggestions, please?

    So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
    So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
    So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
    I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
    I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.

  • Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either.  I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too.  is there anyway to recover these documents?

    I accidentally deleted documents from Pages on my iphone - and now they won't show up on my mac anymore either.  I must have saved them just on icloud and not on my mac, too.  is there anyway to recover these documents?

    On a mac, when you save docs to icloud, a local copy is also saved.  It's saved at:
    ~/Library/Mobile Documents
    Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
    The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
    If the file(s) are no longer there, then use your Time Machine backups to get copies back to the mac.

  • I installed snow leopard and now videos on my Xfinity home page won't play

    I installed snow leopard and now videos on my Xfinity home page won't play

    You may be in the same boat as me.
    I deliberately bought a refurb Feb 2011 MacBook Pro, because it would have originally shipped with Snow Leopard. I have to run an application for my job, which does not run under Lion.
    Unfortunately, Apple is now upgrading all Snow Leopard machines, before selling them as refurbs. I purchased a legal copy of Snow Leopard, and have tried various downgrade solutions that I found posted on the net, without success. No matter what I do, it always goes into "three beep mode" after trying to install Snow Leopard.
    The latest development came this evening, while I was talking to the "geniuses" at Apple. Apparently, there is now a firmware revision that loads the first time you run Software Update under Lion, and it locks the machine so that it can't revert to Snow Leopard.
    The only option they have been able to offer me so far, is to return the machine and get a refund. This is maddening, as I HAVE to have a Snow Leopard machine, and can't find any other way to purchase one.

  • Plz help Help I have accidentally deleted the var folder on my mac and now it won't start up what should I do?

    Plz help
    Help I have accidentally deleted the var folder on my mac and now it won't start up what should I do?

    /var is a hidden folder, so you mustn't remove the folder.
    The only solution is to reinstall OS X. If you have OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, use OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    Hold Command and R keys while your MacBook is starting and reinstall OS X. You won't lose anything. If you have a backup, you can restore it after starting in OS X Recovery instead of reinstalling Mac OS X, so you will save a lot of time

    Reinstall OS X.
    Reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
