Problem Watching Videos Online
About two or three days ago, I started having trouble viewing videos online from Youtube and others. It seems not to matter which website I try, but the video will start and stop every 10 seconds or so, buffer some more, and then start playing again, stop again etc. I tried using different browsers and it had no effect. The browsers are not causing the problem. It's obviously not the individual websites either. So I suspect it's something in OS X, but I don't know what. The first browser I had the problem in was Chrome, and I tried clearing the cache----no effect.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Well I think I found the problem. iIhave a wireless router, and I had lost the connection. I just noticed my Menu bar wireless icon was almost greyed out completely. Two or three days ago I had restarted the computer, and I believe that had something to do with it. The videos seem to play just fine now. I was still getting internet though, because it seems I was picking up the signal from one of my neighbor's routers in the same building I live in that's not password protected. Just a much weaker signal, and that is what was causing the erratic video viewing.
Thanks for your time anyway if you read this.

Sound through hdmi to my tv works but not when watching video online like 4OD
the sound through hdmi to my tv works with music and videos I have downloaded, but not when watching video online like 4OD and youtube.
How can I get it to work?Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

Macbook Pro keeps restarting when watching videos online
My Mid 2011 13in, 500GB HD, 16GB Ram Macbook Pro keeps restarting whenever I'm watching videos online be it Youtube, or Xfinity or anyother video site. Browsing online works fine, nothing happens. I also watched a movie I had on my harddrive and that worked fine as well. The problem is with online video. I even tried it on both Chrome and Safari and I still get the same result. This started about 3 days ago now my Macbook restarts around 8-10 times a day. It has become a constant hassle that I had no issues with before. After it restarts it leaves a Kernel Panic Report reading: Can anyone help me figure out what the problem might be? Please and thank you.

If the hard drive died, replacing a bracket (whatever that means) could not possibly have revived it.
The panic log indicates a hardware fault, probably in the mass-storage subsystem.
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider. You may have to leave the machine there for several days.
Print the first page of the panic report and bring it with you.

I used to watch video online, I am using internet explorer, but now I can't watch anymore videos online and it keeps poping a message says that " I need to install Adobe flash player " . I installed it several time but I am still having the same problem.
Please, can someone help me to fix itThis is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in. -
Why my notebook sometimes blacks out, in windows 7, when I watch video online or just browse some web pages which contains quite a lot pictures?
1. I am not sure whether it is the problem of the graphic hardware, relevant softwares or the system itself.
2. I am not sure whether browsing a webpage with a lot pictures would make the graphic hardware, or other hardwares if possible, massively burdened and then just crash.
3. Or if possible, is the reason that the heat dissipation doesn't work well?
I am looking forward to any replies that might be helpful. Really appreciated.it could be heat, not enough RAM, but you don't tell us enough.
There is no reason to assume this is anything other than running Windows natively btw.
Browser of course matters probably the most.
I like IE10 now, but use to use FF until recently. I'd like Chrome except for a few concerns I have over using it, it can eat up a lot of RAM and it builds up HUGE disk cache if you don't clear history and cache on exit and run CCleaner regularly ( good for all browsers )
So assuming 64-bit and 4GB or more and core i5 or better...
Also make sure Wiindow has 10GB of free space or more.
Biggest concern is what happens afterwards and whether you have run a check of your hard drive (chkdsk on startup) or if the problem cascades and gets progressively worse on top of the first - like do you have to do hard restart or able to bring up Task Mgr and kill or better yet, Resource Mgr and see if you have any thread locks.
Safari is not well versed in multithreading and handling what you want to do and are doing. IE9 isi usually good but I found it could not handle a lot of tumblr photo streams and sites. Try Chrome. With Firefox, use noscript, blashblock and see how it goes. -
I haven't been able to watch video online. I downloaded Windows Media Player 9 for Mac but I still get an error message that says:
The page MTV.com: Media Player has content of MIME type audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin. Because you dont have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content cant be displayed.
What can I download to make it work?It sounds to me that you need real player for mac. going off the plugin command.
if you go into amazon and try to play a playable song you will get this same message. this will prove this factor as amazon will only play using real player.
download realplayer of osx (a sod to find) and then all problems solved -
Why does ma older apple laptop cancel Safari when I a m watching videos online? Also,I used to be able to run Firefox but now message states "can't use with this operating system"?
You can't use Firefox, because your operating system, OS X, is a version 10.4 or earlier.
Firefox "upgraded" its Mac compatible version, so that it will only operate with OS 10.6 or later.
Your Safari also might quit, because it too has an upgraded version with greater stability geared toward 10.4 and later. Perhaps you are using system 10.3 or earlier.
It is also possible that Safari quits, because the video sites you watch have changed to be compatible with newer browser versions with later Flash Player compatibility, like Adobe.
It is difficult to find browser compatibility or stability for earlier than 10.4.
What the above post is showing is in the drop down menu in the upper left of your screen. Click on the blue Apple for its drop down menu. Click on the first in the list, About This Mac. That's where you'll see the version as shown in the previous post.
If you upgraded your Safari, even that could be a problem, because it might not work as well with your older operating system. I haven't tried the following link, but it offers the Safari versions that fit each system. You can try downloading the one that matches yours. If that doesn't work, you can always upgrade again.

Can't watch videos online... Do I need some flash player?
Can't watch videos online... Do I need some flash player?
There is no flash player for the iPad, it's not supported.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store. -
All of a sudden I have a problem watching video downloaded from the web. The videos seems to download fine, but when they begin to play in Safari, all I get is the audio. No video image plays at all. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Cant watch videos online on Nokia500
Hello, ive recently just got Nokia 500, i've updated all the upgrades and everything, now i want to watch videos online, but i cant, there is like a "Flash Player" sign on the top left corner, this is strange because i cant watch videos on youtube.
Please help
Moderator's Notes: This post was edited. Some parts were removed as they may offend other users of the forum.I will completely ignore the porn reference, because that is quite sad, and I don't know why you felt the need to mention it to anyone. What you do is your business, so keep it to yourself.
Now to answer your question, have you checked that you have all your settings for access point and data access correct with your network carrier? and have you tried going to http://m.youtube.com and does it play videos there? Or have you tried a dedicated app from the Nokia Store such as cuteTube and does that play videos? -

Satellite A500/026: problems streaming/watch videos online
Hi,
I wasnt sure where to ask for some help, so i figured id start here since i just purchased my Toshiba A500/026
basically im having problem watching/streaming videos online. doesnt matter the source of the video, youtube, megavideo, veoh. the problem is i have to wait for the whole video to load and then it starts playing. i cant watch it as it streams.
it doesnt tell me its loading, it just shows a black screen and then all of a sudden it will show that the bar is full and the video starts, now this is fine on short vids as it doesnt take long, but for movies it usually fails as they take too long to load so the site will usually come up with some error.
Now ive search on the web and i cant find this problem else where, ive checked that i have the latest abode flash installed and the debugging driver. i usually use firefox, but im getting the same problem on IE.
any help would be approeciated.
Thanks in advance.Hi
This is very strange and I never heared about such an issue.
What security software (Antivirus) have you installed? Maybe its blocking something or the firewall. You should disable it and try it again - Just for some tests. ;)
Do you run factory settings (preinstalled OS) or another Windows? Maybe you should try it with factory settings again
