Internet Plug-Ins
My friend just got a MacMini and I've had a Mac G5 for a long time and when I first got it I had to go through some troublesome things to get Safari to ruyn the way I wanted it to. His MacMini is an intel based computer and I was wondering how i could get some internet plug-ins for windows media player to work properly in a safari page. I remember before that I searched for a while before i figured out how to get the right plugin to play windows media player videos normally on Safari. Does anyone know how to get these? I know I can't get Flip4Mac on intel-based macs because they don't have any up to date versions of it, although I know it should be able to play windows media in Safari. Any help?
Hi,
Rosetta is for Intel Mac's only. The purpose of Rosetta is to make programs think they are running on a PPC chip

I downloaded & installed Java 7 for Mountain Lion 10.8.3 from http://www.java.com/download/mac_download.jsp . Upon running Verify Permissions in Drive Utility I receive the following messgae: Permissions differ on “Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin”; should be lrwxr-xr-x ; they are drwxr-xr-x . Disk Utilities is unable to repair the permissions error.
Sorry, what I meant is I was getting the message "missing plugin", so I thought I had to repair Permissions and every time I tried I got that message “Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin”; should be lrwxr-xr-x ; they are drwxr-xr-x", but then I followed Java instructions. I went back to Java 6 and finally I could access my bank.
I came across this article on the internet:
For the second time in a month, Apple has effectively blacklisted the current version of the Java Web plugin on OS X. The block comes just days after it was discovered that the latest version of the plugin, which had been rushed out to patch a critical vulnerability, can still be exploited despite its heightened security mechanisms.
Apple has worked to distance itself from Java in recent years. The company deprecated its own version of the Java virtual machine for OS X, instead deferring development to Oracle itself. The browser plugin in particular has become a common vector for malware attacks, and Apple removed the Java Web plugin from recent versions of OS X last year. Those needing the plugin must install it separately.
I even tried "About Java for OS X 2013-003", but it also didn't work.
That's why I decided to uninstalled Java 7 and installed 6 again and it worked.
Thank you anyway. -
When I try to install a plugin in any browser on my Mac Mini or my MacBook Pro, I get a "Can't find Internet Plug-Ins folder" message. Other friends with the same machines can install the plugin just fine. We can't find any reason why the plugin won't install on mine. Any ideas out there?
Thanks,Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
Does the dialog show "You can only read" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above. -

Additional Information
If you need to re-enable an out-of-date version of Flash Player, you can do the following:
Navigate to the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled) folder.
Drag "Flash Player.plugin" into /Library/Internet Plug-Ins.
If the browser is running, quit and restart it.
Which I do not have a Internet Plug-Ins (disabled) folder? Can I just drag the Flash Player Plug In to the trash and start over? Help!! -
How do i disable internet plug ins?
My laptop is telling me that if i want to watch anything on netflix i have to disable an internet plug in, i dont know where to locate the library to be able to do this though, can someone help me out please?
Under the Safari Help menu (furtherest to right) select "Installed plug-ins." You'll open a page that lists your installed Internet plug-ins. Netflix requires Microsoft's Silverlight plug-in to view content so make sure that it shows as installed.
If you need to remove a plug-in, see -> http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11931?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US.
Good luck,

Manage Client Internet Plug-Ins
I was interested in seeing if anyone has any idea how to prevent users from being able to modify browser plug-in settings for Safari. To make things clear I already know how to prevent users from installing browser add-ons onto their Mac's (I have taken care of this simply by removing the clients local administrative rights). I am simply trying to figure out some way to prevent clients from managing the plug-in settings, such as the ability to choose which websites Adobe Flash Player can be used on. Is there a terminal command which can be used to fade out (not turn off) the "Allow Plug-ins" checkbox along with "Manage Website Settings" box?
These are your third-party plug-ins.
I wouldn't delete them, just drag them out of the Internet Plug-Ins folder.
AdobePDFViewer.plugin <- Adobe Reader/Acrobat will install a new plug-in the next time you launch it.
So, first launch Adobe Reader/Acrobat and go to->Preferences->Internet->'Display PDF in browser when using' should be unchecked.
It might even delete the plug-in when you reset it's Preferences.
ContentUploaderPlugin.plugin
DivXBrowserPlugin.plugin

Follow Alex's advice.
The Recent Items list is like the human memory and car keys. You know that you saw your car keys the last time you used them, but you cannot remember where you misplaced them — now that you need them.
Recent Items only knows where the document was at last use. If the document is renamed, moved, or deleted, that file activity is not updated in the Recent Items list. -
Internet Plug-Ins: Adobe Flash PLayer 9
I thought I share this for all of you who were having the same problem I was with Safari failing to load pages incorrectly because it didn't have a certain plug-in related to Adobe Flash Player 9/Shockwave. Here's what I did:
Install Adobe player from the Adobe website and once it says the installation is complete (you should be back on the Adobe webpage that lists your new version in a box on the right hand side), there is a link above for a program called Adobe AIR. Click on it, follow all the prompts to install it, and if you let that install fully, your Adobe Flash Player should work. I don't know why the installation without AIr isn't the complete installation, but I decided to click on the AIR link and download it and from there my Flash Player works like new. I hope this is helpful.Here's an addendum to my first post...
This is the page you should get to in order to fully install Adobe Flash Player:
http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/index.html
That's the page that should have your version info on it and it should say:
You have version 9,0,124,0 installed
On that page a banner ad will appear for Adobe Media player which will eventually stop animating itself and allow you to "Launch now' or 'Learn more'. Click on Launch now and follow the prompts to install it. If you install the media player, it should uniformly finish installing the Flash player. The Adobe AIR program is part of the installation if I remember correctly) but I do know that installing the media player should solve this (see below) error message when you get to pages that require Flash Player:
"The page has content of an unspecified MIME type. Because you dont have plug-ins installed for this MIME type, this content cannot be displayed." -
I'm using Firefox 11 on an Intel iMac OS 10.6.8. This problem has just presented itself. First noticed it after intalling the latest Flash plug in 11.2.
Then realised that in fact I wasn't able to read a pdf on a web site or watch videos that need Microsoft Silverlight. Tried cleaning temp files and cookies, and
restoring permissions which were corrupted for Flash and Java script but to no avail. Anyone with any ideas please?Firefox does not support most plug-ins.
But there is a workaround!
Open Firefox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
Look/search (scroll down) for: firefox.plugins.enabled
Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
Now close Firefox, open it again, and Flash etc will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored. -
Can't get Safari to open. Message says that Safari quit while using the sb_plugin plug in. Can't find that plug-in in the library........... as other posts have suggested when looking for plug-ins. What is the sb_plugin anyway? The only thing different lately, is that I imported a couple of videos from the Flip camera.
You installed the Conduit spyware. To remove it, back up all data, then follow the instructions on this page:
Help Center | Community Toolbar
If those instructions don't work, proceed as follows.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/Conduit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). From the Finder menu bar, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder…
Paste (command-V) into the box that opens, then press return. A Finder window should open with a folder named "Conduit" selected. If it does, delete the selected item.
Repeat with this line:
/Applications/Toolbars
Now you're deleting a folder named "Toolbars". You may be prompted for your login password. Next, copy this line:
/Library
Select Go to Folder… again and paste. Don't delete the Library folder. Delete only the following items inside it, if they exist.
Application Support/Conduit
InputManagers/CTLoader
LaunchAgents/com.conduit.loader.agent.plist
ScriptingAdditions/ct_scripting.osax
Close the Finder windows you opened. Log out and log back in.
I've seen a report that Conduit may be bundled with a scam "utility" called "MacKeeper." If you installed MacKeeper, you should remove it according to the developer's instructions. It's worthless and causes many problems reported on this site. -

Restore it from your backups if you have them. Otherwise see the following:
How to Use Pacifist to Replace Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist from VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.

/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.
• Click on the "Go" button .....
• Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
20 files were scanned.
20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk.
0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package.
0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8. If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9. In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10. If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11. Type in your password, click “OK”

I want to uninstall Acrobat reader. I got support in the community to access my HD and to send to trash the internet plugs in for PDF viewer, but when I try to download a PDF from internet a black screen appears and preview doesn't open
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
