No Sound when viewing Flash content in Safari for Windows

Hopefully someone can help.
Just recently, I've been unable to get sound when viewing Flash content on the web.
I currently use Safari for Windows, when I use Internet Explorer on the same computer I can get sound. Just no sound when using Safari for Windows????
Please help, I like Safari for Windows much better than I.E. but I'm forced to use IE when I want to watch something with sound.
Thank you

Are you using Safari 3.1.2?
Try reinstalling the Flash plugin at: http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html

I have a ipod touch. Does anyone know how I can view flash content in Safari? Is it available yet by Apple?
Thanks.

Yes you can by only to certain extent. You can get I trasnmogrify which makes it when you see a video in safari you can click on it and it opens the video up in YouTube. To get itrasmogrify search it on YouTube

Macbook Pro Late 2008 gets real hot when viewing Flash Content. Does anyone have a solution?

Macbook Pro Late 2008 gets hot, fans kick on at 6200 rpm, and CPU usage of about 65% when viewing Flash Content. I've been to the Adobe Forum, but saw no solution for this. Already unchecked Hardware Acceleration. I had motherboard replaced just a week ago, so that's not the issue. I hope someone can help.

Yes it was happening before the logicboard was replaced. I'm up to date with Flash and Software Updates too. Macbook can handle everything but Flash content. So I assume its related to some kind of incompatability. Not sure though. I have come across others who have the same issue.
Ok, dumb question on my part, but did any of those others find a solution? If not, what have they, and you, tried? If you don't mind, posting a link to content which causes this might be helpful (I don't watch a lot of Flash-based video, but I've never had an issue like that on my early 2008/less able MBP . . .).

Sluggishness when viewing Flash contents

Im not sure when, but probably after I updated my Firefox
from v1.5 to 2.0, I experienced sluggishness whenever there's Flash
contents in websites.
I realised the quality is set to high by default. And that
caused the sluggishness. How to configure the quality setting so
that I can change it to Medium as default? Because whenever I
change manually by right clicking on the flash content as set it to
'medium', if i close the broswer and reopened (or even refresh the
page), the quality flash content is set to high again as default.
anyone can help me with this? Thanks

This isn't just an issue with FF2. I have experienced this
issue on both FF 1.0.5 and 1.5.
The more flash content, the worse FF responds.

Flash regularly freezing Safari for seconds

Hi folks,
This problem only happens in one session.
When using flash content in Safari (looks ok in Firefox) I get the browser regularly freezing, with the colored wheel of death. What I can do to make it run again is clicking on the finder for example, it looks like some events un-blocks it and it starts again at a moment later.
I did not investigate further yet, maybe I need to move away preferences and try to determine if there is some faulty file in there, but If someone already solved this I would be happy to hear !
Thanks

You need to update to 10.6.4 and Safari to 5.0.2.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):

The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

How to Uninstall a Plugin in Safari for Windows?

Hi,
Im using Safari 4.0.3 on Windows XP and can view my installed plugins through Help>Installed Plug-ins, but how do I uninstall plug-ins?
I know that on the Mac they are stored in specific folders but I dont know how it works in Windows. How do I uninstall Safari plugins in Windows?
Thanks,
Dan1ell

I am also trying to do this. I am trying to remove the Flash plugin from Safari for Windows. Anybody know how to do this?
Or, is there a Flash blocker for the Windows version of Safari? That would work, too.

Can't open pdf files in Safari for Windows

Hi, I haven't been able to open pdf files in Safari - each time I click on a pdf link, a new tab opend and then a pop-up window says "can't open Adobe" (or something like that), and then Safari crashes. I've read that the solution is to install Adobe Reader 8, but I can't because I already have Adobe Acrobat which doesn't seem to work with safari. Does anyone know a way to view pdf files in Safari for windows?

Try to uninstall and after that install Acrobat Reader 8 again.

Flash Content on Safari Stutters Badly...

I am trying to troubleshoot for my sister who has an iMac G4 800mhz; 768mb RAM; 64mb VRAM; running 10.4.10
Quicktime trailers play fine for her in Safari, (or on her desktop), but with Flash content, like at Youtube, or Comedy Central, the video playback stutters badly. I define stutter, as unwatchable jumpy video, and audio that plays back better than the video, but also drops out occasionally.
I've upgraded her to the the latest version of Flash, and that did nothing. I also downloaded Firefox, just to check another browser, and Flash content stutters there to.
My next idea, as a test, was to download a flash file to her desktop, and see if it stutters there without using Safari, and it's flash plugin, as the player.
So I downloaded a flash file from youtube, (by doubleclicking it in the activity window, which automatically downloads a file called, "get video," with no file extension, and a generic icon.)
I then added a .flv on the end of the file name, and the icon turned into a flash icon.
Now, I want to note, on my computers, when I add a .flv on the end of the name of one of these files I've downloaded from Youtube, when I highlight it in a finder window under column view, I see a preview of the movie, which I can play there. I can also ctrl click, and choose, open with other, (because flash player will not open an flv file), and choose Quicktime as the app, it opens and plays.
On her computer, when I highlight the same file in column view in her finder window, there is no preview visible, just a large flash icon, and the file will not open with her Quicktime app either.
Now, I could care less whether she can play the darn things on her desktop, though I am perplexed that I cannot. (I was just troubleshooting.) Btw, we are both using the same versions of OSX 10.4.10; Safari 2.0.4; Quicktime 7.2; and Flashplayer 9.0
All I want is for her to be able to play Flash content on Safari without the stutter.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for your reply.
I've been hearing nothing but crickets!
I guess it's just the old machine that's the problem. Thanks for the confirmation, -that you have had the same experience.
No wonder the "five bar," pros that work these boards have had no solutions to offer. They're usually, on the money.
I am aware of downloading the flv files and converting them with iSquint. I've told her she can do that, and while that would be fine for me, (though I don't have this problem), it's not a solution she is happy with. I use my activity window to find and download flash files all the time, that don't have a download link readily available. I suppose if she wants the vid badly enough, she will call me and I'll walk her through it.
She has been talking about upgrading her system, for some time now, so this will just be one more reason for her to do so.
Thanks again!

No sound in any flash content

Hi.
I have this weird problem. I have no sound in any flash content. Websites with sound I cannot hear. Applications using flash player does'nt put out any sound.
I have the volume turned up on my speakers and am able to listen to music from iTunes, also music and videos played with Quicktime sound comes out fine.
It's the same problem whether I use Safari, Firefox, Camino or directly via the adobe flash 8 software.
Could this be a virus or a bug in flash player? Is there some hidden setting I can adjust?
I am using an intel 20" iMac.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks
Vayu

Thanks for your reply, but that is the version I have installed.
I have version 9,0,28,0 installed.

Can't View Flash Content in Opera 9

Hello,
I'm having viewing Flash content with Opera 9. I have downloaded and installed the latest version of Flash (9.0.18), and my other browsers have no problem showing the Flash content.
Am I missing something here with getting Opera 9 to display Flash movies, etc.? I can't figure out how to instruct the browser to display it.
Many thanks,
sarah

Sheeesh, fixed it.
Open Opera 9 Preferences
Click the Advanced Tab at the top
Select Downloads in the left column, you will get a Mime type window
Scroll and find .swf extension then click Edit
At the bottom of the window that opens it should be checked "Use plug-in" and show Shockwave Flash
Select Shockwave Flash and you will see another one listed as well, swap to it and restart Opera.
Somehow, even though I did uninstall all older components, it's found and used the wrong one.
Now Flash works fine in Opera 9, Safari and Firefox.

Flash content on Safari

Sorry if I am duplicate posting!
When will Flash content be playable on IPT, getting a little bored of Lego Block.
Does anyone know if there are plans to have permissions for alternative browsers installed (i.e Firefox) in the future?

When (and that's an entirely different topic) the Software Development Kit (SDK) is released, we should see more applications. Whether any of those will be flash players or alternate browsers, where they will be sold, and how much they cost is, as yet, unknown.

Why don't I have sound when viewing videos on Facebook or you tube?

Why don't. I have sound when viewing videos on Facebook or you tube?

Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).

No sound when viewing movie in Windows browser

Hi.
I posted a video on my website and it plays fine when viewed on any Mac browser but plays without sound when viewed with IE after booting Windows XP under Boot Camp. The following message appears under Windows when the video is selected:
"Additional software is required for QuickTime to play back this media. It may be available from the QuickTime Components page."
I couldn't see anything on the Components page that seemed suitable.
The video was taken with a DV-PAL camcorder, edited in iMovie HD and exported to QuickTime movie with Expert Settings using H.264 codec and MPEG 4 Low Delay AAC sound setting at 48 kHz (the only available rate option) and 160 kbps bit rate. As well as the original soundtrack (dialogue) the movie has an imported music soundtrack consisting of two files, one .mp4 format and one .m4a format. I assume it is these imported tracks that are causing the problem, since I have QT Pro on my Mac, but only the free QT on Windows. All the other movies I have posted only have a single soundtrack (either original camera soundtrack or imported music, not both), and all play fine on both Windows and Macs.
My question: what do I need to do to make my movie play without problem on any platform, without additional software being required by the viewer?
Thanks.

I solved the problem by re-exporting my movie with IMA 4:1 format sound. This doesn't compress as much as MPEG 4 Low Delay AAC but at least IE8 can handle multi-track sound with it. IE8 can handle MPEG 4 Low Delay AAC encoded SINGLE-TRACK sound fine, just not (apparently) multi-track. So if your movie only uses the original video soundtrack, or if it only uses a music track (with a slideshow, for example), it'll work fine. But if you have both, for example fading dialogue and music in and out, you might want to check that it plays as expected in the Windows IE world. If your movie plays without sound in IE, try another sound format. I didn't experiment with all the iMovie sound export options as I struck lucky first time with IMA 4:1.
I learned about and recommend the free program IE Tester (http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage) from another poster here. It allows you to test web pages with IE all the way back to version 5. If 80% of internet surfers use IE (as some claim), we Mac-users really need to test our sites using this browser. My problematic movie now works fine with all tested versions of IE.

Folio images disappear when viewed in content viewer

Hi, I am currently having a problem with most of the pdf images in the folio disappearing when viewed in content viewer on the iPad.
I'm using Adobe CS5.5 in layouting the folio.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks.

If the images are visible when previewing through Folio Preview option, try reinstalling Folio producer tools and Folio builder Panel and reinstall Adobe content viewer. That might fix this.

What do I need to know when developing Flash content on Windows 8?

Flash Player for Internet Explorer is now embedded in Windows 8 and works in both Desktop and Metro modes. Please see the following document for details and instructions on how to make your Flash content work seamlessly in Windows 8.
Developer guidance for websites with content for Adobe Flash Player in Windows 8
The Flash Player debugger for Windows 8 will be available for download on the Microsoft website a few weeks after Windows 8 is released to the public. This post will be updated with the download URL's as soon as they are made available.

Your driver should work with later versions, but you will need to address signing the driver for those later versions. In particular Windows 10 is going to require a different signing model. I know of no guide for this.
