It keeps telling me that on youtube that the video can't be played

it keeps telling me on youtube that the video cant be played. i just got my imac today and i dont know how to fix it.

Hi ...
Is this a new iMac? Your profile suggests 2011 ?? 
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin.  Uninstall the current Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

    Have you tried resetting your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    I have a jetpack, and when I try to "connect" to my ipad or phone, it keeps telling me I am not using the correct password.  I have tried everything.  I even changed the password, nothing is working.  Both are 4G, my ipad is an Air and my phone is a Iphone 5.  I can get connected to other wifi on these features but not with my jetpack.  Please help, I need to use this feature soon.  Thank you so much

    Chances are you mis-typed a character in the Wifi password and the devices saved that information.  Now whenever you try to connect the device refers to the wrong password and the Jetpack does not accept your connection.  Tell your devices to forget the wireless connection and start over.
    Once you enter the proper WiFi credentials the Jetpack will allow you to connect.

    Eva:
    Yes, updated to firmware version 1.28. That was the 1st thing I did.
    Then I authorized my iRiver. ADE had been installed way before I got
    iRiver. It has a couple library books there. I hoped to read them on
    iRiver. After I read this thread and another one at
    http://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1832825, I used
    CtrlShiftE  and CtrlShiftD to de-authorize both my computer and the
    device. Then authorized both and had to download books again, deleted
    previously copied books from iRiver and copied fresh copies. No luck.
    Don't know what to do next. Emailed iRiver.

  • I got a new iPod nano 7th gen., but when I tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Some of the videos in your iTunes library cannot be copied to your iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod.

    I got a new iPod nano 7th gen, but when i tried downloading a video from my iTunes library a message popped up that said: Soem of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to yor iPod because they cannot be played on this iPod. What should I do?

    I kept having a similar problem - 3 out of the 10 videos I had on iTunes wouldn't sync. They were in the right format and I KNEW they worked on my iPod because I'd RECORDED them on my iPod. I finally figured out what to do! Go to the movies in your iTunes library. Click on one that does not sync. Click on "Advanced" at the top of iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version". Once that's finished, be sure you delete the old version so you don't keep getting the error (or have 2 copies of the same video) and sync. This should eliminate the problem. At least it did for me!

  • Where do I put a workflow so that all users on the Mac can access?

    Where do I put a workflow so that all users on the Mac can access it from Automator?
    Also. why does the search pattern "users" AND "workflows" return results whitch math "and" (lowercase)? I thought "AND" (in caps) is for boolean searches.

    Hi, Mike.
    1. You wrote: "Where do I put a workflow so that all users on the Mac can access it from Automator?"Either:
    • Macintosh HD > Users > Shared
    • Macintosh HD > Applications (if you're the Admin user).
    All users (unless restricted by Parental Controls) have access to those folders.
    2. You wrote: "Also. why does the search pattern "users" AND "workflows" return results whitch math "and" (lowercase)? I thought "AND" (in caps) is for boolean searches."It's unclear as to what search facility you are referring, and a bit hard to follow given the spelling errors in your question.
    Do you mean Discussions search? If so, have you reviewed the Search Tips? They're also available from the search page, where one can click "Tips" under the Search Terms field.
    Good luck!

    I purchased an album from iTunes using my desktop computer. All of the songs from the album are on my computer and play perfectly. When I try to sync the songs to my iPhone or iPad, I get an error message that says 3 of the songs can not be downloaded to these devices. Any ideas?

    Thanks very much I have contacted them via this. Just hope they respond quickly- rather annoing! Greatly appreciated though

  • Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    Is there any way to retrieve photos that were put in the trash can and then it was emptied?  Or is there a way to move photos from an imovie to iphoto?

    If you've emptied the trash, ehtn no. However if you have a backup, like Time Machine, or a recent backup copy of your photo library you could recover the photos from the trash.
    The answer to getting a snapshot form iMovie depends on what version you have.
    I should add it technically may be possible to recover the emptied trash, but if you really want to do that you would need to download a utility software that can attempt to recover deleted files. Do it soon before you start writing more data to that disk. At the moment I don't have a recommendation for such a program. Maybe someone else out there will offer suggestion.

  • Is there dvd software out there that allows you to create a dvd menu in which the viewer can choose to play different sequences of the videos offered?

    Is there dvd software out there that allows you to create a dvd menu in which the viewer can choose to play different sequences of the videos offered? It was described to me as a dvd matrix menu but I can't find anything like it for mac. The idea is that there are multiple videos on the dvd menu and you can choose to play "video A, then B, then C" or "video B, then C, then A", etc, in different orders each time. And it would play the sequence that you choose.

    I think that's on the right track but I'm wanting something that allows the viewer to choose the sequence when they're looking at the DVD menu. I only see how the creator of the DVD can make different sequences. It's a yoga tutorial DVD and we are wanting the viewer to be able to pick a sequence from the menu items as such: pick one of the 3 warm-up videos, then pick one of the 2 yoga practices and then pick 1 of the 3 cool-down videos and then the dvd will play the sequence of selected warm up, practice, then cool down. And it can be differently chosen every time the viewer uses the menu.
    You can do this on a DVD with DVD Studio Pro.
    DVD's have some very basic storage called SPRM/GPRM scripting IIRC.
    There are a few tutorials around for DVDSP…
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/dvd_language_nattress.html
    http://www.digitalproducer.com/article/DVD-Studio-Pro-Scripting-Part-4-28784
    You use scripts to set values that are stored in a tiny amount of memory on the player & then have to use additional scripts to respond to the values set, so that at the end of a sequence it will jump to the one a user previously chosen.
    Some things to consider…
    DVD's have limits on the number of chapters & titles, you need to plan around that.
    Some DVD players are terrible to navigate, the settings that a user selects will be forgotten when the player is powered off. Users will need to make the choices over & over, every time they use the DVD (computers may remember it - I haven't tested this in years).
    You will also need to setup many variations of menus to be able to indicate what selections they chose.
    It is not a trivial task, you may want to hire a programmer to set it all up.
    Testing is also a lot of work - too many combinations can quickly cause issues for testing, different players can also do odd things too.
    I have used scripting for basic, 'play all' or 'play chapter' menus where the video is encoded once on the DVD & the scripts will either play through, or simply play a chapter & return to the same menu.
    You may find that it would be better to invest in setting up a website with this. On a custom site it would be possible for users to save a playlist or several, they can also share playlists etc, it would be more flexible & usable IMO.
    See roaring apps for info on others who have used DVD Studio Pro with various OS's…
    http://roaringapps.com/app/dvd-studio-pro …it looks like 10.8 may be the last OS to work correctly with DVDSP.
    Other DVD authoring apps may be able to do GPRM scripting too, but you will have to search for them.
    I think the registers are part of the DVD spec, so devices should support them, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD-Video

  • The window shrinks down and when you expand it the writing isn't there it only shows the small part that does open. Most of the games can't be played this way!

    When you click to play the game, the window shrinks down and when you expand it the writing isn't there it only shows the small part that does open. Most of the games can't be played this way, you can't read the chat or access most of the buttons!!! It is just the newest version of Firefox because it works fine on my other computer that hasn't been updated and it also works fine in IE.
