Installed latest version but can't get it to work with you tube videos

I installed the latest version of Flashpayer for Windows XP but when I go to Youtube and try to play videos Youtube doesn't recognize that it is installed
What am I doing wrong or how do I fix the problem? Thank you.

I'm having the same problem, when I try to see a youtube video, it says "you need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video". When I click on "download it now", Adobe says I already have it installed.
I too have Windows XP and using Windows Internet Explorer 8 browser.

  • Upgraded to Mavericks and installed new iphoto but can't get iphoto to work

    I have not been able to open my iphoto library with the current version after installing Mavericks and purchasing/installing iphoto 9.5
    Here's the system info: iMac (from Dec. 2007)
    2.8 GHz Core duo
    4 GB SDRAM
    OS  X 10.9.1 (as of yesterday)
    Iphoto 08 (7.1.5)   lived on a network drive ( Lacie cloud drive) shared between a pc and a mac.
    Upgraded to 9.5 yesterday
    I used time machine backup before installing Mavericks and proceeded to try to upgrade iphoto. However, I did not make a backup of my system after this installation and before I installed the new iphoto. Does Time machine backup iphoto files located on a network drive? Does it matter that the backup was made with snow leopard and not Mavericks?
    I followed instructions on a thread indicating that iphoto Library upgrader 1.1 should be used to prepare my old library prior to opening with iphoto 9.5. 
    When I double-clicked the upgrader it gave me this message:
    Your library can open with the current version of iPhoto and does not need to be prepared with this tool.
    I noticed that the iphoto icon has already changed from orange to blue.
    OK- great! So I go to the freshly installed iphoto and try to open my library and get this message:
    The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto.
    Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete.
    Alright, so I click the upgrade button and I get the beachball of death for about 15 minutes and then see a message that says:
    Examining photo library- Examining with the beachball of death goes on for another 10 minutes and then iphoto just crashes and closes.
    Back to searching through threads- Ah-  try option + cmd while opening iphoto to rebuild the database but then get this message AGAIN:
    The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto.
    Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete.
    And so, the cycle continues....
    After reading through a few other discussion I discovered that the iphoto library should have been on a drive formated as Mac OS extended (journaled)
    So- I format an external harddrive as Mac OS extended (journaled) and proceed to copy the iphoto library (234 GB) onto the external harddrive and after about 30 minutes I received this message:
    The operation can’t be completed because an item with the name “iPhoto Library” already exists. I click OK and everything stops and shuts down.
    Is it possible to get rid of Mavericks and go back to my original iphoto 08 using the time machine backup? If so, should I then use the upgrader before installing Mavericks and the new iphoto?
    At this point I have no clue how to proceed.  I am trying not to panic but this process is starting to drive me a little bananas and my brain is slowly, but surely, melting away. 
    Please help save my sanity. Please.
    Thank you.

    The problem is the library has been damaged from sitting on the Network Drive, and frankly, returning to the old OS won't change anything, nor will downgrading iPhoto. You're going to have this issue once you try and move the Library, or update it in any way, and - even if you stick with the old version of iPhoto, you're going to start having issues just saving edits, sharing and so on.
    So, you're between a rock and a hard place.
    I've no idea if TM backs up material on a NAS, but I do know that it can be set to back up externald rives. I'm somewhat surprised that you don't know, as this is your back up system that you created and the easiest route out of this situation. NOw there's only one way to find out.
    So, my first effort would be to try restore the Library from TM to the correctly formatted drive:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4927?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    will help with that.
    If that doesn't work or is not possible, your next effort is to try rebuild the Library to the correctly formatted drive:
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    If that doesn't work, then you're recovering the masters from the Library and starting over from scratch.

  • I'm moderately competent, but can't get exchange to work with the 2 upgrade

    My original iPod touch synced perfectly with my Outlook 2003 at work, both contacts and calendar until I updated to 2.0 to enable downloading applications. Now I get the "OutlookSyncClient.exe has encountered an error and must close." Error. I have tried all fixes and will have to move on, unfortunately, unless there’s a fix out there.
    This is a corporate email/calendar and I can’t change every entry. It also involves Microsoft exchange, so I’m not sure how the .pst file is involved. Nevertheless. I have tried all the fixes that I can and nothing works. This device has been worthless for the last six months. Clearly something is wrong. I have tried many different computers networked to my account to try and diagnose this. Nothing works.
    Any ideas? Anyone?

    Hello, sorry to see you are running into this today. Below are some suggestions.
    Have you tried uninstalling the following Apple Applications in the following order? After you have done that check out the following directory below.
    1. Uninstall the following Apple Software in the following order to help reduce reboots
    -Apple Mobile Device Support
    -Apple Software Update
    -Bonjour
    -Windows iPod Updater (Name might be different but look for anything with the word iPod)
    -MobileME Control Panel
    -Quicktime
    -iTunes
    *Now reboot the computer
    *Once PC is back up and running, then go ahead and go to C:/Program Files/Common Files
    In this folder if you see an Apple folder. Delete this folder. Reboot one last time. Then download and install latest iTunes

    *Post back as needed.

  • I've installed firefox 7 and can't get it to work with 1password

    One of your techs said 1Password would work with Firefox 7. I can't make it work

    Hi SusieQ,
    Seems they have no idea what they're doing over there, to wit...
    Mac Snow Leopard and above*
    In general, we recommend a multi-core processor and at least 2 GB RAM.
    Connection to the Internet is required; Smilebox is optimized for a high-speed broadband connection, and that faster connection will give you the best performance.
    Smilebox uses your Internet browser and Flash11 (or higher) to run. We automatically detect whether Flash is installed and will help you install the free download if need be. You will also need javascript enabled. Your internet browser and any security software (firewall, antivirus) you have on your computer may need to be configured to "allow" Smilebox internet access. Please refer our article on - I have security software (firewall or anti-virus software) that I suspect is blocking Smilebox.  What can I do to fix that?
    If your computer shipped with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 you can install run Smilebox; we do require that Windows XP computers have Service Pack 3 installed.
    To run Smilebox on your Mac, your Macintosh should have an Intel or Power PC processor on a G5 or higher (if your Mac was made in the past 3 years, it should meet this requirement), 2GB or more RAM.
    *Smilebox will not run on earlier versions of the Mac OS X including Leopard (10.5).
    Snow Leopard is 10.6.x, no G3/G4/G5 PPC Mac can run 10.6 or above.
    So this line is wrong, or two other lines about Snow Leopard are wrong....
    To run Smilebox on your Mac, your Macintosh should have an Intel or Power PC processor on a G5 or higher

  • I have just got a iPod 5 gen 32gb and lightning adapter but can't get it to work with my docking station it will charge but not play audio please help??

    I have bought a 5th gen iPod and lightning adapter but it won't wrk on my docking station it charges but doesn't play audio? Please help

    Does the dock manufacture say it is compatible with the 5G iPod with iOS 6.0.1?
    Have you went to the manufacturer's support site? Contacted them?
    Try resetting the dock. How you do that depends upon the dock
    Sometimes this works
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • HT4356 I was gifted a new Samsung wireless printer model ML-2165W, it works with my desk top and lap top but can't get it to work with IPad.  Did I just receive a "boat anchor" printer in the eyes of Apple?

    I was recently gifted a new Samsung wireless printer Model # ML-2165W and while it works fine with all my computers, I can't make it print from my IPAD.  Was I given a "boat anchor" in the eyes of Apple?

    It looks like your printer isn't on the list of air print enabled printers. It'll still work, you just need to do some tweaking.
    You can see if samsung has any apps to enable printing.
    or
    You can look into a third party app like Print n Share or Print Central.
    Then you can print from your iPad.

  • Has anyone used reMIDI as a plug-in for GarageBand. I downloaded a trial version of reMIDI, which enables MIDI instruments to be strummed or arpegiated, but can't get it to work in Garageband.  How do I set it up?

    Port Forwarding.....or Port Mapping....as Apple calls it is a difficult and complex configuration method for most users. Because there are so many variables involved in this type of setup, it is not possible to provide a step by step guide that will work for everyone with all devices.
    It is possible that a setup guide exists for the the WD drive and AirPort Extreme, but you will have to go looking for it on the Internet. Even if you find one, it may not be tailored to your specific situation or needs.
    Sometimes, you can do everything right....at least according to someone's article or "how to" guide, and things still will not work correctly.
    In situations like this, when you really don't know what to do, you need to enlist the aid of an IT pro, who will know what to do based on your particular products and unique circumstances. Sometimes....they won't be able to get things working either due to particular circumstances.
    But, before you do this, I would strongly recommend that you use a Static IP address for your Internet connection with your ISP. If you do not have this now, contact them to ask them if they offer this type of connection. Expect to pay more for this type of service, of course.

  • My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes.  I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes.  There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE.  How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

    My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes.  I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes.  There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE.  How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
