Safari isn't working properly, says it cannot find the Internet plug-in

After I installed Mozilla Firefox, Safari is not working properly. It says:
Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in
The page “Now Casting - The Best in Guides & Labels” has content of MIME type “application/x-shockwave-flash”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed.
I tried to install the flasf player and a web page appears saying that it is installed but obviously isn't.
Please tell me what is wrong so I can use my Safari.
Thank you.

Safari cannot find the internet plug in

I have a new Intel iMac that initially had no problem surfing any web site. I now have a problem with any page that contains "shockwave". As and example when I try to got to www.autotoll.com.hk I get stopped by the following message...
++Safari cannot find the internet plug in++
++The page “Autotoll” has content of MIME type “application/x-shockwave-flash”, but you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be available on this page:++
++http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer++
++Do you want to open the page?++
I have gone to macromedia numerous times and tried to download and install Flash Player 9. I still get the same message.
I have also tried using FIREFOX and get the same message.
How do I install Flash Player 9 properly??????
HELP!!!

Re: FLASH 9 won't work with Safari 2.0.4 or Firefox (A FIX!!!)

threejay10,
thanks for pointing me to the other discussion thread on
http://www.justin-cook.com/wp/2007/03/08/flash-9-doesnt-work-on-mac-os-x/
i am not that comfortable in Terminal so I opted for the one other option i could see that doesn't reliance on me typing a slew of sensitive characters into Terminal.
So, instead, I downloaded Pseudo from VersionTracker
http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/9608
installed it in my applications folder. then dragged the Flash 9 installer onto Pseudo. Flash then installed perfectly and all is working well.
It seems there is a simple fix after all. Apparently Pseudo installs into the root and therefore, I assume, bypasses the permissions issues. After 2 days of trying to solve this, I"m happy it's over. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction. I hope others can find this thread and the solution.
Cheers, TM

"video/x-ms-wma" Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in

The page: http://lamega.lamusica.com/player.shtml doesn't load the content because the message "Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in"
I already have this plug-in: Microsoft® Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin but I see in the MIME Type only show "audio/x-ms-wma" but not the "video/x-ms-wma".
Help me....
Thanks a lot

I actually don't get any error message at all. The Q is greyed out and a large ? in center of it and nothing works in Safari. I get the same non-message wherever I go that has QT. I have tried some of the fixes that have worked for other people but nothing works so far. I tossed the webplugin into the trash and restarted Safari. I repaired permissions. I looked at the plug-ins list in help but that was only confusing since I don't have a clue what any of those control. Getting frustrated and have spent a couple of hours trying to fix this.

Sometimes "Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in" which I've installed!?

The page: "http://www.example.com" doesn't load the content because the message "Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in".
Although, I already have this plug-in: Microsoft® Windows Media Player. What to do?

Just wondering if anyone can help....I do not have a Mac so am finding it difficult to test.
I have just published an online magazine which was initially in the .dnl file format, which has come to light that mac users cannot view.
To try and resolve this I created an .exe file but it would seem that most mac users cannot view this either as they do not have virtual pc etc... which is required to view the .exe file.
I have now created a PDF version which has satidifed some people on macs temporarily but trying desperately to offer something to mac users I thought I had the answer, by uploading the magazine to a browser so it does not require downloading.....but:
The first person to try it out for me got: Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in and on trying to obtain one it could not find one.
I really thought it would work as you do not need the .dnl reader until you try to save the book or detach it to view it on screen.
Does anyone know if there is a way to view the content in a web browser????
Any help would be much appreciated as I do not want to leave the Mac users out.
Here is the link incase anyone fancies trying it for me....any feedback would be appreciated.

Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in (MIME type...x-shockwave-flash)

Well, YouTube and other flash sites worked fine just until today. So I get this message :
+The page “YouTube - Meet Single File” has content of MIME type “application/x-shockwave-flash”. Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed.+
I've already tried Disk Repair to repair the permissions, installed, re-installed Flash Player and Shockwave Player and nothing yet. System preferences with QuickTime Advanced Panel to enable flash and the other miscelaneous one I unchecked, the normal procedure, I guess. Also checked the libraries to see if I didn't have the plugin in two libraries, but i'm not sure about the library/plugin issue.
Any help is much appreciated.
Best Regards,
Kinetick

Leopard Safari 10.5 "Cannot find the Internet plug-in" audio/wav

Hi All,
Just upgraded my MBP from 10.4 to 10.5 and im having issues viewing any website that has embedded .wav files.
"This page has content of MIME type of "audio/wav" Because you don't have a plugin installed for this MIME type, this content cannot be displayed"
[IMG]http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s132/nathantesta/Picture1.png[/IMG]
This affects both Safari & FireFox.
Any help?

I don't know if there is something odd in your existing Safari application or an out of synch preference setting exists.
Go to your System Preferences>Flip4Mac panel. All boxes, except for "Launch QT Player" ought to be checked. In the Player Panel all boxes ought to be checked. If different, correct then restart Safari and try the file type again.
If settings are correct, reinstall Safari from your Installer DVD. You can follow these instructions - More custom reinstallation options - even though they are intended for Tiger users.
If you reinstall, make sure you "repair permissions" using Disk Utility in your Utilities folder when complete.

Safari cannot find the Internet plug-in? Please explain.

I cant watch/stream? an internet video because I dont have a mime type plug-in?

RealPlayer is the only option for playing those streams. However, the quality of the video depends on your internet connection speed and the settings in RealPlayer.
To adjust the bandwidth parameters, open RealPlayer and from the RealPlayer menu and select Preferences.
Click on the "Connection" tab.
If you know the speed of your internet connection, you can manually set the connection speed from the drop-down menu.
If you don't know the speed of your connection, click the "Test Connection" button to automatically adjust the parameters.
Once you are finished adjusting the connection speed, quit RealPlayer and go back and try the stream again. I suspect the quality will be improved.

My safari doesn't work sometimes, but I connect with the internet.

my safari doesn't work sometimes, but I connect with the internet. Some of the videos I can't see with the Safari browser, but I can see it with other brower. But my friend can see these videos with her safari. And I can not connect with the app store sometimes.

Before you try to configure the settings on your Router, first thing which you need to do is, Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
Connect the Modem to the Linksys Router on the Internet Port and then connect your computer to the Linksys router on the LAN Port 1. On your Computer click on Start - Run - CMD and click Ok... Now in the Command Prompt window type "ipconfig" and hit enter and note down the "IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway" , Now again in the Command Prompt window type "ping default gateway IP" and hit enter and check if you are getting any replies, If yes then you can login to the setup page of the configure all the settings on it from scratch.

What computer, OS and iTunes version are you using?

TS2776 i recently transferred my itunes file to a new pc. i am unable to play some songs i had imported to itunes and it says it cannot find the original folder. how can i play these files?

Now, i am unablt to play certain imported files and have and exclamation mark. it says itunes cannot find the original folder. how can i play these songs if there is no other folder to find them in?

If you right mouse and select Get info it will show you the Apple ID used to purchase these songs.
Usually the name of an apple id is based on the email. So knowing that you may have forgotten the Apple ID password.
You can request a new password here http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/

Get error "Safari can't find the Internet plug-in"

I get error when I tried to open a Potcast on IBM's website in Safari 5 for Windows 7
"Safari can't find the Internet plug in. Some content on the page "IBM Cloud Computing - idea - United States - United States' Can't be shown because its MIME type is unspecified.
I checked these settings
-Plug-ins enabled in edit\preferences\security
-Java enabled in edit\preferences\security
-JavaScript enabled in edit\preferences\security
-Quick Time Player 7.6.6 is installed and works
-Potcast works on Google and IE. Note: IE prompted for MIME type configuration, clicked Yes and Potcast worked.
I tried to search the web for answer but couldn't find solution for this error.
I checked Apple's forum and didn't find anything so Please help.
thanks

Is that the "Listen and learn about cloud computing and the IBM difference" podcast on this page, Concise?
http://www.ibm.com/smarterplanet/us/en/cloud_computing/ideas/index.html
If so, I can replicate the effect on my XP SP3 box (running Safari 5.0).
A bit odd, because it just looks to be a QuickTime plugin when I click on it in IE.
The W3C Markup validation service doesn't like the code on that page much:
[88 Errors, 69 warning(s)|http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ibm.com%2Fsmarter planet%2Fus%2Fen%2Fcloud_computing%2Fideas%2Findex.html&charset=%28detect+automa tically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0]
... but it might be worth doing a "Help > report bugs to Apple" (in Safari) just in case the effect isn't related to the code.
(If anyone has suggestions for Concise on workarounds to get safari to play the podcast, please feel free to leap in.)
