Safari 5 Wont Play VIdeos On Sites Like Yotube And Facebook

I recently downloaded the new safari update and now i can play videos on websites like youtube,myspace, or facebook. I also downloaded the newest version of adobe and it worked for a few hours and now its back to the same problem.
The videos wont load its just a black screen. What should i do?

I just tried this, also. Video are now playing again in Safari 5. Thanks for the fix. If they stop playing for some reason, I'll let you know.
Now only problem is some photos/gifs/ won't load onto some pages & ? in box appears instead. The links are there but may or may not be in the correct position for mouse over because ?s are misaligned. Will look for answers to this next.

  • My computer won't play videos from site like the Daily Show and the CW, but they stopped working last week. I have the newest version of Adobe player. Anyone know why the full videos will not play?

    I failed to mention that the sound does play on the videos that are not playing.

  • How do I place an icon in the task bar of a frequently used site (like Yahoo and Facebook have)?

    I've tried holding down the cursor and dragging a website I'm working on, into the task bar and it doesn't work. I know there's an easy way.... please help

    When I was using Windows XP, the only things I saw in the task bar were shortcuts to the applications I was running. The system tray also has shortcuts, but to background processes that have changeable settings.

    Hello,
    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.

  • Encore wont play video files

    I recently upgraded encore from ver.2 to cs3 and find that ver.cs3 wont play video files.
    It wont play the file in the project window, it just stops at the first frame. If I move the slider below the viewer the video material is updated but it wont play.
    In the monitor view it wont play either, I can view the material by manually moving the cursor.
    It wont play a preview either, it just stops.
    It builds a DVD without problems and the dvd plays fine without errors but the program wont play any video files.
    Ver.2 plays all the same video files without problems.
    Please help!

    Whew!
    Glad that you got it fixed, and thanks for posting what worked for you.
    Good luck with the interview,

  • Does anyone know how you can play video with the screen locked and not just recorded video. Like downloaded video?

    So I want to be able to play video mp4 for my kids and lock the screen so that they don't disable or stop the video. Is there anyway you can lock the screen and play video? I've seen an app that tries to do this, but it only plays video recorded from the device. Also, it's not very good. I've also looked at IOS 5, but it only seems to support audio, not video, unless I am not doing something correctly? What happened to the simple old manual 'hold' switches that most devices have, like the PSP etc? It seems like all of the touch devices have neglected a simple touch disable button? Anyway, please provide any enlightenment here. 

    actually nevermind, it's working now. I closed iTunes, then waited a little, then double clicked one of my iTunes video files from my documents, which opened up iTunes again and the video started playing. I tried restarting iTunes before and that didn't work, so maybe for those who have similar problems, just try clicking on the video file in your documents/desktop of your computer, rather than directly from iTunes.

  • New ipad wont play videos on facebook

    i have the NEW IPAD (4G) and whenever i try to view videos on FACEBOOK, it wont play.
    It opened a browser and a play icon appears.
    I was able to play it on my laptop and saw the video without problem.

    It's likely that those particular videos require Flash Player to view.  Adobe discontinued supporting Flash Player for mobile devices a year ago, so you can't view those videos on your iPad.  You CAN view them on a laptop because Flash Player for computers still works fine.  This has been discussed endlessly on this Forum.
    Hope this helps

  • There are diagonal stripes on some clips on the timeline and wont play video in the program monitor.

    After reconnecting some origianl files after a hard drive crashed, there are diagonal stripes on some clips on the timeline that wont play video in the program monitor. They do however play in the source monitor.

    Those stripes are most likely the missing media indicators, which means you've relinked to the wrong clips.

  • I'm using OS X Mavericks and Safari cannot play videos on Apple website. Any clue?

    I'm using OS X Mavericks and Safari cannot play videos on Apple website. Any clue?

    Usually, that's due to a DivX plug-in or Safari extension... start with Safari - Preferences - Extensions & switch them off. If nothing there, see Safari - Help - Installed Plug-ins & note any that are for DivX.

    *** may have found a fix ? *** Thanks to your post re: GDI objects I checked task manager ( added column "GDI objects")and saw 700+ whereas working 6.18 was 160 ish Got thinking - what could possibly  use that many GDI objects ( firefox only uses a few hundred and it's a platform ) Then it hit me - emoticons ! So in tools/ options/ IM&SMS/ IM Appearance    unchecked "show emoticons"and also unchecked "show images and other media previews"restarted Skype and GDI objects now only 164 ( down from 729 )and all other windows are repainting fine and are usable again( my problem was RDP sessions that became unusable, as I work remotely  ) To be sure, have rechecked the options and restarted skype and see 700+GDI objects ( goes up from 660 when place call to echo/sound test )and removed them again to get only 164have also rebooted a few times and gone through the whole processof unchecking emoticons, restart, rechecking emoticons, restart to make sure itsnot a fluke.  pretty sure this has fixed it for me ( so I now have a working 7.6.0.105 on XP SP3 ),and as your problem "sounds" the same I hope it also works for you. Thanks again for the GDI hint
