Mac Mini 2010 You tube videos stutter

Hi Everyone,
I have just switched from windows to a Mac mini and am just wondering why when i watch a video in you tube it is jerky/stuttering. My other video files on the hard drive play fine but the web ones do not. I have tried waiting for them to fully load but it makes no difference.
Any help would be appreciated
Regards
John

How much RAM do you have installed? How many apps are also open while this occurs?
I have some issues with Flash when there is not much RAM available. Flash eats RAM.

  • What do I need to watch you tube videos on my mini mac 10.9

    When I try to watch certain you tube videos a pop up states to download adobe flash but my mac mini os v. 10.9 can't seem to download the recommended adobe flash player. What is my alternative to this problem, please anyone.... I am you tubeless in Michigan

    Update your browser (Safari, Firefox, etc.), then update Flash. Flash is best updated from the "Flash Player" option in System Preferences--don't respond to pop-ups that try to guide you to sites not run by Adobe. That's a sure path to malware.

  • Why does adobe reader 11 not allow you tube videos to be viewed on my MAC?

    Adobe reader does not allow me to view you tube videos on my MAC.  Why?

    Every time I install the newest version, for whatever reason, if I want to watch a video, I get a missing plug in message.  I don't get the usual "allow or deny" message with it, it just won't allow me to view the video.  I watch a lot of art lessons on line and participate in blogs and this becomes very frustrating.  The odd thing, is that when I un-install Adobe 11, I can view the videos but, of course, then I can't download PDF files.  The weird thing is, other people in my neighborhood are having the same issue and don't know what to do about it.  I may just download an earlier version of Adobe because I didn't have this issue until I updated it some months back.  Maybe my 6 year old MAC can't handle the technology even though I am running on the latest Safari version?

  • I tried playing a you tube video, but received a message prompt to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. The link to Adobe stated that there are issues with MAC OS X 10.7 and Flash Player 10.3. The new version did not download. Any Suggestion

    Hi Seattle

  • For Mac OS 10.8.2,latest flash plug in, Firefox 19 will not play any You Tube video. Am at wits end.

    The video seem to load, then start, run for about 5 secs, and then stop, no more video. This is on every You Tube video I try. Your instructions-troubleshooting ideas almost never fit a Mac OS 18.8.2 with the latest Adobe flash plug in. Nothing I have seen on your troubleshooting web site solves my problem, and I do not have the time to spend on this for the rest of my life. Fix it.

    I just recently registered on this forum to see if I could help with answering questions from the users here. I did this because I like the apps and aims of Mozilla, and I'm willing to spend time helping people out with using these apps if I'm able to. That being said, questions worded like the one above do not make me want to spend much time being all that helpful.
    My suggestion is that you wait a few hours (or day or so) before posting about a problem that is causing some negative emotional response for you.
    If anyone has the same problem as what is described above, please post more information about their software versions (i.e. flash version), and whether or not the issue remains when taking the flash plugin out of the equation and using HTML5 on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/html5).
    My initial thought is that the issue is with the flash plugin being used. Has another flash version been used?

  • Upgrade Mac Mini 2010 to SSD, have you tried this?

    Hi all, and this is my first discussion thread.
    I'm currently running my Mac Mini 2010 with a SATA Male to Female cable and ext. SATA power on a WD VelociRaptor 150GB.
    The solution isn't really elegant i feel and it generates alot of heat from the drive and some extra noise when loading heavy applications eg. parallels desktop.
    I've even up the ram to the max 8GB as well and everything seems zippy so far.
    Earlier there are alot of talk about SSDs requiring TRIM on the operating system and as what we know Mac OS X Leopard
    does not have integrated TRIM support.
    So i'm basically looking at SSD candidates that will:
    - run the power provided by the Mac Mini's (5V) integrated PSU
    - don't require TRIM support to manage garbage collection on the hardware level.
    So far, i've only 2 candidates:
    - Crucial RealSSD
    - Kingston V100+
    Which one will you shell out for and why?
    Additional question:
    - If i remove the superdrive on my mac mini, can i get a external USB superdrive? is there such a thing at all?

    theres no reason why it should not work, plug in the HDMI cable, select the Source input on LCD(HDMI 1/2), if still no picture on the Mini open System Pref>Display : Resolution> it should show 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p and other lower resolutions, just select 1080p and to your right select 60hz. Hope this helps.

    This is the thing I'm talking about. It should be directly to the right of the Google search bar. If not there, maybe you can customize the toolbar and put it back.

  • New Mac Mini output to S-Video

    I'm trying to output to S-Video using a new Mac Mini (2010).
    If I use a Mini Display to DVI adapter and then the DVI to S-Video, will that work?
    Mini Display to DVI: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570Z/A
    DVI to S-Video: http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9267G/A
    Looks like it'll "work", but will it "WORK"?
    Thanks

    Adapters won't work. MDP to DVI is digital only and S-Video needs 480i (analog).
    You would need an expensive converter like http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=5280

  • Mac mini 2010 very slow after update to Mavericks

    My mac mini 2010 (2.4 Ghz, 8GB ram) is running really very slow after updating to Mavericks.
    Clearly OneDrive is a pain... but had it running on ML as well, and though it is a memory and CPU hog, it never really slowed down the system.

    Did you even read the article you linked to?
    Here's a quote from it
    "The video itself looked fine when it played properly, but it stopped and started constantly, and often displayed with huge, ugly artifacts. And at times, the app would freeze completely and require a force quit.
    Just to make sure it wasn’t a problem with one Blu-ray disc, I tried some others. With Hot Tub Time Machine the results were much, much worse. It got a few seconds into the United Artists logo before the movie and completely froze playback. On several attempts. With David Cronenberg’s The Fly, playback was generally better—but the software played the ‘making of’ movie instead of the actual film. I thought there might have been a preference to help with the movie selection, but—wait for it—the Preferences item didn’t do anything when I selected it."
    Not very promising is it

  • Easy You Tube Video Downloader not showing up

    I've downloaded Easy You Tube Video Downloader, and it shows up in Tools/Add-ons. But I see no little icons anywhere on my main browser window, and can't see anything that seems relevant when I'm on a You Tube page. So How do I access/use this program?
    I tried emailing the developer, <[email protected]>, but it bounced. And I made the mistake of giving a donation in advance!!

    No i have no message to verify/ repair your disk with disk utility. I am 62yrs old and i am not very technically minded. Sorry it`s an iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8) Does this disk utility automatically appear. As i have said it only happens in the first ten mins.with the spinning wheel. I can go back down now and they will all be showing you the original icons. Sorry to cause you bother.

  • Problem upgrading memory of a mac mini 2010

    I have a Mac mini 2010 with these memories

    I bought a memoir of Ebay and do not work.
    Insert 2 modules and makes strange beeps on boot, if I put up does nothing starts without beeping and not send video signal and if I put the form below makes the odd beep.

    Can anything be done?
