I have a MAC running Maverick. MP3 sounds will not play in Safari or FireFox, but will play if you download the file locally to the Desktop. How to resolve this?

You probably have an internet plugin installed that is preventing the MP3s from playing. I just checked a site with an MP3, and it played, rather than downloaded.
The internet plugin folders are at:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins and
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
(~/Library is hidden by default. Let me know if you don't know how to access it.)
My internet plugins were all in /Library; there were none in ~/Library.
Try moving these folders to the desktop (don't delete them), restarting, and then seeing if the MP3s play.
They it will be trial and error to see which plugin is responsible.

  • In Flash the sound does not play only started from the beginning. Can anyone please help?

    In Flash, the sound only plays if the file is started from the beginning. The sound doesn't play if starting from anywhere other than the beginning.
    This is very frustrating when trying to sync the animation with the sound as it's not possible to scroll back and forward with the sound playing. The only way the sound works is if it is started from the beginning.
    If anyone can help that would be fantastic.
    Thanks

    Hi Jeromie,
    Many thanks for your help. Here is some additional information, which may shed light on the problem.
    I am using Flash Professional CC  2014.0 release,  Build 14.0.0.110
    The computer I'm using is then iMac running OSX version 10.9.3 Build 13D65 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
    I am using Flash, not a web-based editor that leverages Flash Player.
    "a direct link to the project or tool would be useful in allowing us to attempt to reproduce the problem" -  Not sure how to do this, how can I add the project to the forum?
    Many thanks once again for your help, let me know if you need more information.
    Cheers

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

    Did you try dragging the corner to stretch the screen? Or the green traffic light?
    If so, try pressing the green traffic light while holding the option key... or delete the .plist for iTunes or edit it manually.

  • I keep getting the message that I am not on the current version of Firefox, but when I attempt to download the latest version I am told that I already have the latest version. What's going on?

    I have no more details to provide. The question that I asked summarizes the problem completely.

    Since I continue to get the cryptic message, I have decided to try a different browser, namely Google Chrome.

  • Mac running Mavericks Crashes Firefox Daily. EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE Please help.

    Hi,
    I have a Mac running Mavericks and Firefox keeps crashing most daily for the past three months and I get a "Firefox has crashed submit report" popup.
    It is usually if I am playing a youtube video or a movie (more then one) at a time. Or if one video is loading and I try to play or load another. I notice if I "que" or pre-load a long video (more then 15 minutes), then try to play a new one it will crash.
    I have tried the following solutions none of which have worked:
    A) Uninstalling and reinstalling firefox
    B) Reset Firefox (Help, troubleshooting information, reset firefox)
    C) Turn off hardware acceleration (Firefox, preferences, un-check hardware acceleration)
    D) Turn off "enable hardware acceleration in "youtube" (it now asks me each time if I would allow it to play)
    E) Plugin Check and Updates are all up to date (http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/) I only have:
    SharePoint Browser Plug-in (research)
    Default Browser Helper (research)
    These plugins are up to date: (as of March 7th 2014)
    Shockwave for Director 12.0.6 (Up to Date)
    Shockwave Flash 12.0.0.70 (Up to Date)
    QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.3 (Up to Date)
    Sometimes I get this as the "signature": libsystem_platform.dylib@0x4280
    Again I have tried the above solutions but they have not worked. Any help or advice will be appreciated.
    Thank you
    Shawn

    Hi Guigs2, Thank You for the reply. Was getting worried no one was going to help me. I am not sure how to attach the crash report. I have copied and pasted it here:

  • I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey.  Is there any way to convert them?

    I have an iMac running Mavericks 10.9.4 I also have about 30 Kodack photo CDs that I wish to convert from PCD to Jpeg but Mavericks will not see the files, they are grey.  Is there any way to convert them or must I do it on another machine?
    Kaibil

    iPhoto used to support the PCD format up to a few years ago. It's extremely frustrating that Apple decided to no longer support this format and now I'm directed to pay nearly $40 for an app that will (GraphicConverter 9). Did Lemke Software make a deal with Apple so we'd have to pay a premium for a very overpriced converter? And, how are decisions like this supposed to encourage the use of iPhoto?
    Apple users already pay a premium to use a Mac. Obstacles like these eventually destroy loyalty to the Apple brand. Just ask Microsoft how their back room deals that exploited their customer base worked out for them.

  • I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My wireless mouse with not scroll in mail but works fine in other applications? Any suggestions?

    I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My apple wireless mouse will not scroll in Mail but works fine in other applications.
    Any suggestions?

    First, see this discussion. If the solution suggested there doesn't work for you, continue.
    If you've installed a Mail plugin called "Mail Unread Menu" and you know how to remove it, please do that, then quit and relaunch Mail. Test. Otherwise, see below.
    Back up all data.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select 
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
    2. Repeat with this line:
    /Library/Mail/Bundles
    This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    I have a Mac running OS X 10.4.11 with a 1.83 intel core duo   what is the highest operating system upgrade that I can get?

    You can check to see if yours meets the system requirements for Snow Leopard - that would be the highest; Lion will not run on your machine.
    Please note that the minimum 1 GB RAM is a minimum - 2 GB would be better.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A
    You can buy it at the Apple Store, other online resellers, or ebay (but be careful there to only bid on a new retail shrinkwrapped package to you don't get suckered into a used install disk which won't work on other machines).

  • I have a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 and have installed all updates and disabled Java Applets.  Do I need to put virus protection on this computer and, if so, any recommendations?

    I have a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 and have installed all updates and have disabled Java Applets.  Do I need to install antivirus software and, if so, do you have a recommendation on what works best.

    Mac OS X versions 10.6.7 and later have built-in detection of known Mac malware in downloaded files. The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders. In most cases, there’s no benefit from any other automated protection against malware.
    The most effective defense against malware is your own intelligence. All known malware that affects a fully-updated installation of Mac OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of trojans, which can only work if the victim is duped into running them. If you're smarter than the malware attacker thinks you are, you won't be duped. That means, primarily, that you never install software from an untrustworthy source. How do you know a source is untrustworthy?
    Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown site, merely in order to use the site, is untrustworthy.
    A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim.
    “Cracked” versions of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
    Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
    Disable Java (not JavaScript) in your web browser(s). Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those versions has bugs that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. Those bugs will probably never be fixed, because those older operating systems are no longer being maintained by Apple. Migrate to a newer version of the Mac OS as soon as you can.
    Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
    Never install any commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use ClamXav — nothing else.

    I just paid for and downloaded the wrong version of Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I downloaded the Microsoft version and I have a Mac running OX Yosemite. How do I get a credit for what I ordered and then reorder the correct Mac version of Adobe Acrobat X Pro

    If you ordered Acrobat via subscription, then you can use either Windows or Mac version.  Just download/install the Mac version, then activate it with your Adobe ID.
    If you purchased the perpetual license, then you need to Contact Customer Care bu chat or phone.
