Macbook Pro Dock doesn't disappear when watching a fullscreen youtube video?

The Dock should hide itself after a few seconds when watching a full screen video but IT DOESN'T. It really is ******* me off, any answers?!?!

When watching a video full screen make sure the cursor is no where near the bottom of screen, the Dock area.
Double check your Dock settings.

never heard of perian. its a quicktime player? would this help?
Give Allan's advice a try. I'm curious to see how that works for you.
4GB RAM could be part of the issue. Open Activity Monitor, select System Memory and see what it says for Page ins, Page outs, and Swap used.
Perian isn't a necessity, but those three together usually cover all the different formats you might encounter.

MacBook Pro 17" doesn't sleep when top is closed

The problem is described in the title of this thread. Is there a .plist file where the setting for this may have gone wrong.
Have had the MacBook Pro about 5 months. It has functioned normally during most of that time - the computer went to sleep if there was no input for a set amount of time, OR immediately, when the top was closed...until recently. Now, shutting the top puts out the monitor and shuts down the hard drive, but the computer does not sleep until the set amount of time passes, and the computer then sleeps due to inactivity.
May be due to some screen "savers" I installed (from uselesscreations.com and sandiegoscreensavers.com). But I'm not as much looking for causes as a solution to restore default behavior. I suspect a .plist file setting to default values would do it, but which one(s) ?
Thanks for any solutions or clues.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Might this apply?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304372
Thank you for taking time to read my question and for offering help. But, no, that article does not apply.
The article describes a different problem (monitor failing to go out) to mine (computer failing to go to sleep). The article also describes a cause that cannot possibly be the cause of my computer's problem: Boot Camp Beta. I have never installed Boot Camp Beta, nor any other non-OS X compatibility software, on this computer.

New Macbook Pro 17" doesn't sleep when lid closed, but works if done manual

I never had this problem with my last macbook pro. This is the new unibody 17"
The computer will not go to sleep when I shut the lid. The screen stays on (the apple logo glows). And the little light on the right stays solid (no blinking).
Yet, when I go to the apple in the top left of the screen and manually put the computer to sleep, it goes to sleep very normally.
Please Help!

Macbook Pro (2011) freeze and lag when watching youtube etc

My macbook have start to freezing and are general slow in my point of view. Really frustrating, how can I fix this!! ? Tried to fix permisions and so on

Firstly, it's never supposed to be on your lap. Read the manual warning regarding this. It's not a laptop, it's a notebook computer. Keep on a flat surface preferable with the rear elevated at least 3/4 to 1" to provide adequate ventilation.
Secondly, yes these computers do run hot because of the processor speed, GPU, and Retina screen.
Thirdly, refer to More Like This items listed on the right side of this page.

Macbook Pro says plug in failure when trying to watch a movie

My Macbook Pro says plug in failure when trying to watch a movie.

This did not work and I'm glad that I only paid for the cheapest plan on macupdate.com. For other people that view this discussion, after a couple of days of trying things and then viewing a couple of other discussions, what worked for me was uninstalling my Silverlight and then reinstalling it. Thanks for everyones input !!!!

My macbook pro (August 2010) keeps freezing when apple mail starts up. This happens every 2nd time I turn on my Macbook Pro. This forces me to hold down the power button to restart my Macbook Pro. Does anyone else experience this, and is there a fix? Thx

since upgrading to OS lion, my mac book pro (2010 August) keeps freezing (non responsive, requires restart) when i turn on my mac and the system is trying to open apple mail. while apple mail is attempting to collect new mail, the macbook pro freezes. this happens every 2nd time i try to start up my computer. this only started happening after i upgraded to OS lion. please let me know what I need to do to fix this. being forced to restart every 2nd time i turn on my macbook pro has been very frustrating. not sure if apple mail is also the cause of my macbook pro for being very slow during start-up (on the occasion the computer doesn't freeze).

I am having similar 'freezing' problems with many programs (Mail, Safari, iTunes, etc.). I have done a clean install of Lion instead of an upgrade when it came out. Perhaps something went wrong with my install? I'm thinking about wiping and reinstalling.

Have you attempted to reset the SMC? That would be the first step. Hold the left control, option, shift key and the power button for about 5 seconds and release. Then try to reboot. Might as well reset the PRAM as well. Hold command, option, P, R on start up until the machine restarts. If that doesnt' have any affect we'll have to dig deeper into a potential hardware failure.
If this method doesn't work, check the webcam that will tell the problem is on the iSight & WiFi cable. If your webcam is ok, then it'll be the WiFi card problem. Hope it can help ;-)

How to Make my Macbook Pro's internal HDD external, when I get a SSD?

Hey, I know there are other posts on what enclosure you can use and if it's a possibility, but I haven't seen any that tell me how I get OS X on the SSD without a disc? Can I download the installer on a flash drive somehow? Also, I am wondering if this really is a good idea, using my Macbook Pro's HDD for a backup HDD, instead of buying one? I have no use for it anyway, if and when I get a new SSD. BTW, the HDD is the upgraded factory 500gb 7200rpm. Also, do you think it's smarter to have a bigger backup drive than internal drive? In other words, I would like to get a 1TB Samsung 850 Pro SSD, and my current HDD is only 500GB.... I am a musician and need a lot of storage for musical purposes. I use Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro X, Ableton Live 9, Office, and Photoshop.... My Macbook Pro is a Late 2011 Macbook Pro 15.4' 2.2ghz quad core i7 8gb RAM. Oh yeah and a mother thing is, I think I should get an enclosure that has a thunderbolt port with usb, what are your thoughts?

How to Make my Macbook Pro's internal HDD external, when I get a SSD?
Get an externel enclosure at the same time.
You can order from OWC
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
Put the SSD in the externel enclosure and use something like Carbon Copy Cloner, to clone the internal drive and all it content to the SSD. Then swap them out.
Always good to have more than one backup.

I want to buy a hard case for my macbook pro, but I don't know what year it is. When I use the serial number to try and find out, all it says is, "~VIN,MacBook Pro (15-inch Glossy)". When I type that into amazon for a case it gives me nothing!

We had a MacBook Pro stolen from our home when we were out of town and I am pretty sure we never activated the LoJack type of function on it not sure if its called lojack but you get what I am saying is there any way we can activate such hardware/app now so we can possibly recover our laptop? Any one who can point us in the right direction that would be great and we would be very grateful. Thanks So Much

Lojack for laptops - if that is the product you purchased and installed, you will need to read the user manual or contact the manufacturer as it is 3rd party. You did file a police report right?
