Safari 5.1 not playing embedded mp3s

I am trying to initiate the playing of an MP3 file at a very busy common site for listening to online voicemails and setting up greetings at Ring Central (https://service.ringcentral.com).
This works fine on my PC via ANY browser but not on my Mac on any browser.
Here's a link to the screenshot of the offending "play" symbol (>) button: https://skitch.com/davidgaian/g8cx6/ring-central-greetings
What it DOES do is initiates an auto download and saves the MP3 file here locally. Which then can be opened in Quicktime (oddly enough, not in iTunes).
Ideas?
Safari Settings??
Thanks guys for any help!
-David

the webkit2webprocess.exe has something to do with the sound. Safari works fine for me, except for the occasional time when the webkit2webprocess.exe crashes. Sometimes it crashes Safari altogether but sometimes it just reloads all the tabs I have opened. Either way, it's a huge pain. I hope they fix it with an update soon.

Wiki Server will not play embedded MP3 files in Windows Browsers

I have a brand new cleanly installed OS X Server running on a Fall 2012 Mac Mini. I have created a Wiki where I am uploading .mp3 recordings of classes for people to listen to online or download.
I can access the wiki and "quicklook" the MP3s in Safari on a Mac and iPad but I cannot on any Windows based web browser or in Chrome on my iPad or Mac. In Chrome on windows or an iPad the Quicklook preview window appears but no sound ever plays. In Firefox on Windows the preview window appears and plays a few seconds of audio and then stops.
I have mutliple wikis like this set up on Snow Leopard Server and they work just fine in all browsers. This appears to be a bug with OS X Server 10.8 v.2.2.
Any suggestions or does anyone know if there will be a fix for this anytime soon?
Between this issue, the fact that I cannot successfully migrate my old wikis from Snow Leopard Server to Mountain Lion Server, and the fact that I cannot run Snow Leopard Server on newer Mac hardware, Apple seems to be wanting me to jump ship and abandon their platform.

Use the Provide Server Feedback Button in the Server app under the About section.

Safari not playing embedded midi music clips

I recently noticed that embedded midi music clips in Apple Mail and in Safari do not play. Basically, I am referring to background music one often hears while going to some web sites. Particularly those individual web sites folks have created. Of course, many on this forum, who have never been a Windows user and specifically, Internet Explorer, probably never realized there even was any background music.
This is not necessarily a issue for me, but it is for my Mom ,who, along with many others her age, like animated graphics and music in their emails and web sites.
I still can't believe Apple Mail and Safari can't auomatically play embedded midi files. Especially given that Internet Explorer and Outlook Express can.
Many one option is using Firefox and Thunderbird for a Mac?

Hi,
I still can't believe Apple Mail and Safari can't auomatically play embedded midi files. Especially given that Internet Explorer and Outlook Express can.
Safari can provided the page has been coded correctly. Many sites that add sounds use the <bgsound> tag which is only supported by Internet Explorer and not part of the HTML standard.

Creative MediaSource will not play certain MP3

I have a Creative Audigy 2 NX with a remote that I really want to be able to use. Programs such as GIRDER, WinLIRC, and uICE do not support the RM-500 remote control.
I can't figure out how to control the remote beyond editing and creating key files that send ASCII commands, but the problem with that is I cannot control programs that are not currently acti've. In other words, I cannot control winamp if I'm playing a game with my remote, which is what I want to do. The KEY files are structured as this:[KeyEvent690 etc]KeyName=whateveryouwantdisplayedNotification=- or 2 or 4KeyEventRemap=this is the important partHandleByApp=i don't know what this doesAnyway, if I set notification to -, I can send ASCII commands-- BUT these will not send to programs not currently on top. If I set notification to 2, as Creative did in their Winamp .x key file, I could control the program even if it is not on top-- BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE KeyEventRemaps NUMBERS SHOULD BE. I cannot find this information, and I have tested as far as I am capable of doing manually (tested numbers through 500 MANUALLY).So what I want to be able to do is use my remote to control winamp, but that is impossible. And Creative MediaSource will not play streaming audio (for God knows why...). So what I decided to do was record to an MP3 player with a third party program and play that MP3 in the Creative MediaSource software (the built-in recorder will NOT work, as I cannot structure that into a playlist nor can I play the recording media nor can I minimize the program and mute the feedback-- I can only record if I'm playing, and this doesn't work). The first problem I encountered was several programs would not output MP3s that were playable as they were being recorded, however I finally did find one. This program, 3aLab iRadio, allows the MP3 to be played back WHILE simultaneously being recorded. The only problem is that this the Creative MediaSource software will NOT play the mp3. Out of the 5 different MP3 players I tested, ONLY the Creative MediaSource software would not playback the MP3 as being written. I cannot figure this out, and I am at a loss as to what to do next. I realize that Creative won't support streaming audio with their player, MediaSource, but what I like to do is listen to streaming internet radio as an item on my mp3 playlist in winamp. I wish to be able to control this with my remote, but as I cannot find ANY WAY out there to control my remote as I wish without further information, this is a dead end. My alternati've is to use the Creative software for which the remote was designed to work, but unfortunately this does not support streaming internet radio nor does it support MP3s that are being written to. This is driving me insane.
What I want to be able to do is have a playlist that I control with my remote, with the first item on the list being internet radio, the 2nd and such on down being MP3s. In winamp, this is doable, as well as in Windows Media Player, and most MP3 players out there. Since I cannot do this in Creative's software, I need a workaround alternati've. PLEASE.
So, in conclusion, is there anyone out there who can either tell me how to control my remote directly by identifying what the notification=2 keyeventremap=configuarions are, give me a program like girder however which supports the RM-500 remote, or tell me how to get MP3s that are being written to (aka incomplete) to play in the Creative MediaSource software?
Thank you very much for your time.

How do I play embedded mp3 files?

Hello,
Is Adobe Reader for iPad capable of opening my embedded mp3 files? If not, then how can I get the audio to play inside the document? The original document was created in Publisher 2012...converted to pdf where I embedded the mp3.
Thank you for your help.

Adobe Reader for iPad has no support for MP3 or video files. You would need to use a paid PDF reader like PDF Expert.

Windows Media Player will not play embedded in Firefox

I'm puzzled over the sudden inability to play embedded Windows Media Player files in Firefox. Everything was working fine, then suddenly yesterday with no changes made by me and no updates or other changes to the system I am aware of, suddenly it will not play.
I can right click a link and save it, and it will play in the regular Media Player. However, when the content is embedded in a website, it loads the page and just sits there. Won't play.
I'm using:
Windows Vista Home Premium
Windows Media Player v. 11.0.6002.18311
Firefox 3.5.5
I went to this page:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=206213
And when I type in about:plugins, I cannot see the DRM files. Am I supposed to? I tried using the Windows Media Player Plugin for Firefox (wmpfirefoxplugin) to repair it, but that hasn't helped.
Any advice? Please keep in mind that I am practically retarded when it comes to tech stuff, and working several jobs and in school full time, so I really don't have the ability to spend hours and hours researching this. I need a concise, quick fix. Thanks!

Why are you using such an old Firefox/3.5.3 version from 2009 (Gecko/20090824) as shown in the user agent and haven't updated Firefox for such a long time?
See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Finding+your+Firefox+version
The Firefox 3.5.3 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates.
You should at least use the latest Firefox 3.6.x version if you do not want to switch to Firefox 4+ versions.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Updating+Firefox
Your plugins list in the system details list shows the WMP plugin (np-mswmp), so that plugin should be working.
Do WMP test pages work?

Acrobat will not play embedded videos...

After embedding a video, I click on it and it will not play. However, our IT guy opened the .pdf file in Acrobat Reader and it played just fine. So his solution is to do my work in Acrobat 11 Pro, then check that it works in Reader.
So, according to him, I need to get out of the program I'm in and check my work in another.
Sorry, but to me, this seems goofy.
So my question is: Should I be able to watch the video I just embedded in Acrobat? And if so, how do I do it?
Thanks!

According to our IT guy, Flashplayer is installed. However, when I click on the video in Acrobat, I get the message, "To view the flash technology in this PDF file, please install the required version of flash player".
I'm beginning to think the IT guy doesn't know what he's doing.

JMF can not play some MP3 files on the web

I try to write the application using JMF with MP3 plug-in. The application will search the word in Google dictionary
and play the MP3 sounf online.
The almost word is playing good with the MP3PLAYER, but some is always no sound.
And Itry to add ControllerListener for this, and every word got the realizeComplete and endOfMedia event.
but I just can not here the sound for some word.
for example -
http://www.google.com.tw/dictionary/sounds/actress.mp3 does not work
http://www.google.com.tw/dictionary/sounds/actual.mp3 work
This is one first java application. And I got stuck for couple days. Is anyone can give me some hint ?
Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But my requirement is to play the MP3 immediately when the user search the word.
Covert from MP3 to and WAV take too much time. I never said to do that as a solution, I told you to do that "to test that" the problem is that you're trying to play unsupported MP3s. Please do listen when people are trying to help you out.
Is there any other soulution except JMF ?To play mp3 files? Ummmm, yeah...go Google to your heart's content on ways to play MP3s (but you'll have to find another forum for help with that, because this forum is only for JMF)

How can I play embedded MP3 files in Firefox 19?

I am on a site where I can buy MP3 files. There is a preview of each song. When I click the preview, nothing happens.
If I open IE and do the same thing, I hear the song.
When I return to Firefox, I can then play that same song in Firefox. I can only do this if I open the link in IE first.
I have the Quicktime plugin installed and enabled. In Firefox options, it shows to open MP3 links using the Quicktime plugin

HI,
Open Keychain Access (Applications/Utilities) Select Passwords on the left.
Delete your Google keychain. Relaunch Safari. Navigate to the Google site, login as usual. Click Yes when prompted to save your username and password.
Make sure in Safari/Preferences - Autofill you have User names and passwords selected.
If that doesn't help, from the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset. Relaunch Safari.
Still no joy, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
