Safari 5.1 won't play with Google Reader, YouTube

For a couple of days now, Safari won't display Google Reader correctly—it just shows text. Then tonight, it stopped loading YouTube videos.
In both cases, switching to Firefox solves the problem.
Anyone else out there having the same problem? Any solutions?
Eric

First, go to Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari. Try Google Reader and YouTube. If that helped, then it's the Extension(s) causing the problem.
If it's not an Extension, quit Safari.
Open a Finder window select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder.
Move the cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari.
For YouTube, you may need to uninstall then reinstall the Flash plugin and delete Flash cookies.

From then on it is not working.
Any solutions?

Hi gajanan vasant!
I have a couple of articles for you that should help you troubleshoot your issue with Safari. First, you may want to try a reset on Safari by following the procedure listed in this article:
Safari 5.1 (OS X Lion): Reset Safari
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5043
If you are still having issues after resetting Safari, you may want to check out this article about third-party add-ons in Safari:

Hi All, I've had a movie on my ipad for 2 years that I can watch on a plane, no wifi. Now all of a sudden with the updates recently, it won't play with wifi off. What do I do?

Hi All, I've had a movie on my ipad for 2 years that I can watch on a plane, no wifi. Now all of a sudden with the updates recently, it won't play with wifi off. What do I do?

Okay, IGNORE. I realized I was missing an update. I did it just now, to 7.1.1 and it's working now. Weird. hope it stays like this.

Have reset Firefox & completed all of steps in "Flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites", but video still won't work. Help!

I have reset Firefox, completed all the steps in "flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites". And the video still won't play in full screen. It will play, but frequently stops or sound continues and picture freezes. I have noticed that if I continually move my mouse, it plays fine. All these videos play fine in IE and Chrome.

Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

Beats Headphones Won't Play With 1st Gen. iPad

I've had the headphones under a year, the headphones have worked with iPad. Just today when I wanted to play some music they won't play. I checked the headphones with my phone and another tablet and it played with the same quality. I tried it again with my iPad it still wouldn't play. The light was on the headphones I made sure that the jack was in securely. The only two things that might be preventing it from playing is I've barely updated the iPad since I've had it. Also, when I went to check the batteries it looks like they've corroded a little bit not too serious. I've called Beats since the headphones play with everything else there's nothing they can do.

I had a similar problem with an earlier iPhone. This sounds like a problem with one of the switches that changes state when you plug into the headphone socket. I had to take the iPhone in for a replacement and since you sound like you're still in the 90 day warranty I would do that right away.
You might also try another device with a mini plug (another pair of headphones, speakers) to see if it is just the plug on that particular headphone set, but it does sound like hardware issue with the iPad audio plug.

Safari 6.0 won't Play .m3u8 files under Mountain Lion

I have embedd some streaming video in my web page, but it won't play in Safari 6.0 under Mountain Lion 10.8.1.
The streaming video shows just fine on my iPad 3 and on my iPhone 4, and it shows just fine in Safari 5.1.7 when I boot up under an earlier system version. In 10.8.1, however, all I see is the black "loading" bar, but nothing ever happens.
Any help will be appreciated.

I am getting the same issue.
In the new Mountain Lion update 10.8.2 it says that it fixes safari so that you can have it automatically open safari and it will open all last windows.
I did the update, I don't have that option still under my general settings in safari, when someone else did the update and they have that option to reopen last windows when opening safari...help please

Safari Memory Leak (especially with Google Reader)

Safari starts gobbling up memory with use, never releasing it. I have turned off extensions, moved all internet plugins to disabled directory, restarted, etc. but nothing helps. Right now its sitting at 1.5GB real memory usage.
One quick way for me to replicate this issue is to go through a few hundred google reader items. It never releases memory even when I close that google reader tab. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

Hi
If a new account is the same, you've done it all; bar a fresh install, unless you're quite certain everything's as standard...

IPhoto videos won't play with Snow Leopard

Snow Leopard is hostile to my fonts, my trackpad, and now my iPhoto videos. When I double-click on the videos, they no longer open in QuickTime or do anything, they won't play. Any suggestions? (Uninstall Snow Leopard?)
Thanks in advance.

I deleted that post 5 times b/c it was a mistake, I do not have iPhoto 5, I have iPhoto 08. If iPhoto 08 is glitchey with Snow Lion, what am I supposed to do, buy iLife? It's not inexpensive.

Safari 5.1 won't play video on YouTube

I did all of the latest Apple upgrades last night and now Safari 5.1 will not play video on YouTube (get message that a plug-in is missing - it doesn't specify which plug-in). Have the same problem with video on www.Telegraph.co.uk. So, is Apple picking a fight with some commom video format or is this just a bug (and we're the beta test site)?

@unclepete THANK YOU!! I tried uninstalling 5.1, back to 5.0.5 only to have the same issues. Then back to 5.1 and the issues got even worse, this is after making sure all Internet Plugin's were eliminated and newest flash plugs installed. I was at the end of my rope! Not only was I having problems with Safari not playing videos on YouTube (only would play audio) and other video sites, but some of my pro applications started getting weird on me, saying I had no VRAM (thats a whole other topic!). I made sure I had applejack for SL installed, then did the "Command-S" at startup, went through all 5 steps, and POW!! When I rebooted everything worked, including 5.1 complete with YT video and audio with no weird page refresh issues!!
APPLEJACK IS THE ANSWER. Everyone needs to try that FIRST, before messing about with the plugs, installs, prefs, etc.

YouTube videos won't play on Google Chrome anymore!

I noticed that today Google Chrome won't play YouTube videos anymore, even in HTML5. If I try to watch a YouTube video, the buffer bar appears for a split second, but then it vanishes and the loading takes forever! I'm using Google Chrome 33 on Windows 8. Is there some way to fix this? Here's a video I was trying to watch.
Never mind. It seems that embedded YouTube videos work fine here, but not on the YouTube site!

Hi!
I am having a similiar issue since the last update. But contradictory to what you said, i am able to see only videos on Youtube site and not the embedded ones.
Hope it gets fixed soon, for this is very annoying

Choppy sound and game play with Google Chrome.

I'm getting choppy audio and game play with Bejeweled Blitz with google chrome. I tried all the solutions offered on the "Flash player games, video, audio don't work" site. None of which helped.
Any other ideas?
running flash player version - 11.5.31.137
Chrome version - 24.0.1312.57

Do you notice any difference if you use the system version of Flash Player instead of the built in version included in Chrome?

I'm having problems with syncing my iphone 4s calendar with google calendar. google calendar will sync with phone but phone calendar won't sync with google calendar.

I can't get my iphone 4s calendar to sync with google calendar. I can sync the other way i.e from google to iphone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

You need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer per the instructions included with this link.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
If you don't do this per the instructions included with the link, all iTunes content on your iPhone will be erased with the first sync. If you haven't transferred photos from your old computer to your new, any photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your previous computer will be erased when selecting to transfer any photos from your new computer.
Not sure how cancelling a sync with iTunes and importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll with iPhoto could have an effect on your GPS reception and location services.

ITunes music won't play with burned QT movie on CD

I made a slide show movie on my Powerbook using Quicktime Pro and purchased a song (purchased just for this use) on the iTunes store to add to the movie. Then burned the QT movie to a CD and gave it to friends to commemorate a party that they gave. But the music wouldn't play. A window came up on their PC computer asking them to go to the iTunes store for verification or something like that.
Then I made another movie on my Powerbook using Quicktime Pro and added music to that one that was already on my computer. It wasn't music that I'd bought on iTunes. It was music I had imported to iTunes from a CD that I had purchased. I burned that movie and music to a CD and then tried to play it on a 20" iMac. The music wouldn't play. I didn't have that music installed on that computer but I wouldn't have thought that would be necessary. It should have been burned to the CD.
This is puzzling. I have done this same procedure in the past. I may have done an upgrade to the OS since making movies previously. What changed? How can I get music to play with movies on CDs that are played on other computers than my Powerbook?
Ginny

Hi!
The sizes and everything of your music files are normal right? Between 2 and 10 MB or so?
Edit: Copying one of the songs from your laptop back to your desktop works fine on the desktop? That would rule out the following...
This is getting a little bit desperate, but it might help us figure out what the heck is going on with your songs!
Can you install Notepad++ and try to open a malfunctioning song file in it?
Maximize the window and maybe hold Ctrl and scroll down once or twice to bring the font size down. Then take a screenshot of what you see in Notepad++'s window and share that here.

Safari cannot make a secure connection to Google or Youtube--but only on my home network

Recently, when I am on my home network, I cannot connect to Google or Youtube. When I try to, I get an error message that says that Safari can't make a secure connection to the site. (I can connect to these sites with Firefox at home though) However, when I am at work, both Google and Youtube load just fine on Safari. Any idea what could be causing this? I suspect that it's the repeater that my landlord installed in my apartment, but I really have no idea.
I am running Mavericks (10.9.4) on a 15-inch, late 2011 MacBook Pro.

Safari 5.1.5 not working with Google Docs

In a Google text doc, there is a problem with line spacing such that all the lines in the doc are stacked up on the first line making it unreadable and unusable. I've had this problem with the last few releases of Safari but the problem has just become worse.
If I click anywhere in the body of the doc I get:
     Google Docs error
     This error has been reported to Google and we'll look into it as soon as possible.
     Please try one of these interim solutions:
Reload this page.
Download the document by right-clicking on it in the main document list and selecting "Export."
I'm running Safari in 64-bit so that's not the problem and switching back to 32-bit doesn't fix it.
I can view the original format of the doc with proper line spacing by selecing File > See original, but can't edit the doc at all.
Anybody come across a solution or work-around for this?
Thanks,
Paul

Try another browser, such as Chrome, Chromium, or Firefox.
