My MIS professor is using firefox on a mac and cannot play a video that I put on my google site, how do I fix or recreate a video that he can play?

I am not a firefox user, so would downloading firefox be the first step?

The solution was embarrassingly simple: I whitelisted YouTube in Flashblock.
Which doesn't solve all the mysteries - why didn't YouTube work when I started Firefox in safe mode? Why did I never have to whitelist YT before? - but, mission accomplished.
I'm glad this is here for the next person to find, in case it's helpful.

  • When using Firefox my number keys do not work on prompts to fill in my number. I'm using Firefox through my Mac. Ideas?

    Filling out an application where it prompts me to fill-in my number. Using Firefox through my Mac and a wireless keyboard. The number keys work everywhere else just not in the prompts.

  • I am using Firefox 3.6.13 and have installed Windows Media Player 1.0.0.8 for Firefox. However, if I attempt to open a file with a .wmv extension it appears to function properly, except, that I cannot "play" the file. What am I doing wrong?

    You probably have not seen anyone reporting the exact same problem as you. All three crash reports have the same crash signature and as currently ranked 67 it is not the commonest of reasons for a crash.
    I hope you enter your email contact information when reporting crashes. I note you see this crash when using videos, others may possibly see this crash in other circumstances.
    You have already tried the obvious, attempts at a fix so it is now down to wait and see, maybe developers working on the bug will report something or fix it.
    Did you try my suggestion of installing portable ESR ?

  • Using Firefox 3.6.20 and Windows XP Home SP3. Firefox sporatically deletes bookmarks from the bookmarks toolbar. Additionally, when I try to import from a saved HTML file, Firefox does not import the complete file. Results are inconsistent.

    Using Firefox 3.6.20 and Windows XP Home SP3. Firefox sporatically deletes bookmarks from the bookmarks toolbar. Additionally, when I try to import from a saved HTML file, Firefox does not import the complete file. Results are inconsistent.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How do i select multiple items on a page using firefox on a mac?

    I am trying to to figure how to select multiple items (email addresses) using firefox on a mac. I use a web based manage my business. I am trying to send emails to multiple people.
    I have tried clicking on the first email and hold the command key while selecting the others. The selection just jumps.
    I tried holding the shift key and and it selects everything between the 1st and 2nd email address I want to use.
    I also tried the control key which just brings up a menu.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This may just be a limitation of the email site you are using. Is this a public site that I can test and try to reproduce the issue?

    See if the "stable" version released on 30 June is compatible with Firefox 5.0. That page doesn't mention which versions of Firefox it is compatible with, a serious oversight, IMO. <br />
    https://www.torproject.org/torbutton/
    Plus, it looks like that developer hasn't updated his AMO page in over a year, which makes it impossible for users of that add-on to get automatic updates as each new version of Firefox is released. <br />

  • I am using Firefox ver. 3.0.19 and I have Windows 7. When I use Firefox as a browser I cannot print my emails. I get an error message: "pcfax not availabe". If I use IE I have no problem printing the emails.

    I am using Firefox ver. 3.0.19 and I have Windows 7 which came with a new computer. When I use Firefox as a browser I cannot print my emails. I get an error message: "pcfax not availabe". If I use IE I have no problem printing the emails.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == From day 1 with the new computer about two weeks ago.

    It sounds like you have the wrong printer selected.
    When you get the Print window, pick another printer from your printer dropdown. You seem to have a fax printer selected instead of a physical printer.

  • Using Firefox version 29.0 and want tabs below toolbars. Any ideas?

    I am one of those users who prefer the tabs below the toolbars. In version 29.0 there does not appear to be any solution to getting them there. I have searched all the menu bars and gone the route of changing browser.tabs.tabsontop to false. Nothing has worked so far and I'd hate to load an older version of Firefox just for tabs. Has anyone else used version 29.0 and solved this dilemma successfully?
    Thanks for any help or advice...ahava1313

    For around 4 years now I have had to train and show many hundreds of people how to make forefox work properly with addon features like Tab mix plus and how to put there tabs below so they could improve there work productivity becouse they just didnt know any better way existed. '''With over a million people now having downloaded the new classic restore addon in order to get just ONE FEATURE "TABS BELOW" It defies logic that the Firefox Developers either dont know how to use a browser properly or dont care. '''They are sheep following Internet explorer and google down a black hole of stupidity. I use Firefox becouse its different and its able to work the way I like with TABS BELOW. Firefox 29 lasted aproximately 5 minutes before I went back to FF 28. I would happily use FF 29 but ONLY if tabs are below. This should not require an addon. Tabs below should be the standard and it would be the defining feature that makes firefox stand out. The inability to have tabs below is the very reason I Dont use other browsers. If a petition to get tabs below is made just how many signatures do we need to get the developers to listen. What does it take for the developers to listen to its users. I just dont get why this has gone down the path of becomming more and more like crome and internet explorer both of which I utterley hate becouse I cant put tabs below and organise things in the same way I have always been able to do in Firefox. Where has the difference gone. May as well rebadge as "crome clone" or "baby IE". '''Please listen to your users and fix this issue as some of us do know a better way and its TABS BELOW '''
