Safari stop playing embedded youtube videos

Hi
I am having trouble with Safari 4.0.5 (6531.22.7) which suddenly refuse to play embedded youtube videos. Safari show the video in a web page but when played the youtube default play display "an error occurred, please try again." and Safari display in the status bar "one error in opening the page, for more information, choose Window->Activity". Now when I look in the activity window it show "forbidden" beside the video file.
Strangely I can play the same video from the youtube main page without any errors.
I have already done the following:
- checked permissions with Disk Utility.
- Reset Safari
- Empty caches
- Removed com.apple.Safari.plist
- Uninstalled, re-Installed Flash plug-in
but the problem still persist. Help in resolving will be highly appreciated.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
YouTube streams content using the Flash plugin ... Flash Player support on 64-bit operating systems
Since you are running Snow Leopard, *try running Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64*. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) *make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*


Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
bpageIcons.db to the Trash.*

  • Firefox 3.6.3 wont play embedded youtube videos. It comes up with "an error occured please try again later. this happens all the time

    Firefox 3.6.3 wont play embedded youtube videos. It comes up with "an error occurred please try again later. this happens all the time. If you click to go to youtube the clip plays.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I was having the same issue up until I found a solution myself a few minutes ago. If you have "Accept Third Party Cookies" un-checked it will not allow the embedded "Third party" youtube videos to load. You can either Check the box to allow third party cookies or add an exception to allow youtube.com WITHOUT the www. You just want it to be Youtube.Com.
    To do so just go to Tools: Options: Privacy: Exceptions: Type in Youtube.com and click Allow. Then click Close and OK. It should start working immediately.

  • Firefox no longer plays embedded YouTube videos - message "An error occured, please try later"

    I've updated FireFox, cleared cache etc., but continue to experience this issue on several different sites where I have embedded YouTube videos. This issue has only just started happening - all was well a few days ago. They play fine with Chrome and Safari and I can also play the un-embeded version on YouTube in Firefox.

    Yes, unfortunately, another user reported this a few days ago on his website.
    Currently the only workaround is to click the YouTube button in the player to launch the video in a new window, and then manually edit the -nocookie out of the address and press Enter to load it on the real YouTube site.
    Hopefully someone at Google/YouTube will figure out why this suddenly broke and fix it.

  • Embedded youtube videos will no longer play in Powerpoint 2010

    Since upgrading to Flashplayer 11, I can no longer play embedded youtube videos in powerpoint 2010.  I get the error message that I have to upgrade Flashplayer.  I have performed several clean installs, yet I continue to get the same error message stating that I have to upgrade Flashplayer.  How do I correct this?

    i know right here is one fix if u got 2010 powerpoint  youtube did some changes thats not compatable with it . 1 way around it that might work for you is within the use old embeded code  were it says version=3 change it # into 2 insted of 3. do this in both appeareances.
    example   <object width="1280" height="720"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1rcqwRgVvvw?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1rcqwRgVvvw?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="1280" height="720" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
    change the #3 to the #2 thats it. then paste it in your powerpoint insert video from web.

  • Embedded YouTube videos don't work on Safari on the iPhone.

    Sometime after June 15, 2013, embedded YouTube videos stopped working on web pages on Safari on the iPhone (iOS6).   They work on Safari on the Mac and they work in the iOS YouTube app.   I see the preview frame and the play button, but when clicking the play button, the frame goes black and nothing ever plays.    This worked up until 6/15 and the pages haven't changed.      Did Apple do something to stop them from working on the iPhone recently?

    You may have turned off an option in Flash preferences to not allow sites to store Flash cookies on your machine. Some videos made in Flash and served from third-party (non-YouTube) pages expect to be able to store Flash cookies, so the videos may not work with this Flash option turned off.
    Go to [https://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.html Flash Global Storage Settings Panel] which is served from Adobe/Macromedia's site and check the "Allow third-party Flash content..." box, and the box for "Store common Flash components..." where you can then manage sites you have already visited. You'll have to reload the video page after you change this setting.
    Also, leave site feedback on those sites where you experienced the problems encouraging them to use HTML5 for serving video content instead of the proprietary Flash format.

  • Embedded Youtube videos stopped working...

    hi all
    i've got a problem with a Flash website that has been driving me crazy.
    i have a Flash website that was built for us in late 2009, it uses ActionScript 2 and i have been maintaining it in CS3 on a Mac.
    the site is structured as a heirarchy of swf files, and loads XML files to specify text content, image locations, and Youtube videos.
    all this has worked fine until sometime in the past month or two. the problem now is that the embedded Youtube videos no longer load, although nothing has changed in the code. unfortunately i don't know exactly when the videos stopped loading.
    in the Activity Window of Safari i can see the URLs for the Youtube crossdomain file (http://i1.ytimg.com/crossdomain.xml), Youtube still for the video, and the Youtube player (http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/cps-vfl2P81QA.swf). however neither the still frame nor the player skin load.
    if i run the site directly from my hard drive (with my Flash Player security preferences set to allow the swf to access the internet), the videos do load and play, so i am guessing that it is some kind of security domain issue.
    if i run the site in Flash CS3 in debug mode, when i navigate to a video page, although the video loads and plays, i get lots of these warnings (i've edited the path and file name):
    *** Security Sandbox Violation ***
    SecurityDomain 'http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/cps-vfl2P81QA.swf' tried to access incompatible context 'file:///pathname/site.swf'
    i think the solution is probably fairly simple, however i don't know enough about ActionScript to figure it out...
    any help would be much appreciated!

    i should add that the same thing happens on three different servers, on Safari or Firefox, and on Windows or Macs, so it seems pretty likely that it is a change in either Youtube embedding or Flash Player that has broken the embedding...
    it's been doing my nut in that i can't find any reports of similar problems on the interwebs...

  • Dreamweaver CS6: Embedding Youtube Video causes DW to stop responding

    HI,
    I'm trying to build a simple site that displays an embedded youtube video on the main page. The video is placed in a div tag that is placed in a specific spot on the page background to make it appear as if it's playing on an old PC that's part of the image. I paste the code into the div tag in the code view and it appears as a grey box in design view. Everything seems fine up to there, however when I click live view DW CS6 stops responding and the design view window goes white. I've tried pasting the video embed code into my other page, and into a blank html document to see if it was a problem with the rest of the code but the same thing happens on any of the pages. If I save the page and preview in Chrome or Firefox the page displays the windows loading cursor for a few minutes and then returns a youtube error 6 (ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND).
    I spent a few hours researching and found nothing via Google searches, Adobe help or Lynda.com tutorials. I'm new to web design and CSS and got as far as I did through Lynda.com lessons. Which is to say I have an index page and a seperate game guide page that links back and forth displaying images and text exactly as I'd like. Everything else works well enough only the video embedding is giving me trouble which is frustrating because according to everything I've read it's supposed to be one of the simplest processes.
    I'm really at a loss as to how to fix this issue and would appreciate any help the Adobe community can give me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Good to know,
    I fixed the problem but I'm not exactly sure why this worked. I went to a different site that uses Youtube hosted videos and tried their embed code which appeared the same to my untrained eye. But to my surprise this other video worked perfectly, so I just put the url for my video in and it worked. I'm not sure why, as far as I can tell both embed codes are the same. Both use <iframe> tags. But it works now, suffice to say I've gained some respect for the people who do this stuff day to day.

  • Why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

    why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

    Hi..
    Try troubleshooting the Flash plugin which is required for most YouTube cotent as well as other sites.
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Very important to uninstall first.
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

  • Embedded Youtube Video's not Playing in Web Viewer

    I have several YouTube videos embedded in my folios. They all play fine when being viewed in the app, but if the folio is shared (by any channel) and viewed in the web viewer these videos won't play. Instead the user is greeted by this error:
    Not found
    Invalid character in path
    I know that other apps using embedded youtube videos are playing just fine in the web viewer (I check out Wired) so I'm curious why mine are broken.
    Any thoughts?

    This streaming YouTube example works fine in DPS Tips web viewer:
    http://contentviewer.adobe.com/s/DPS%20Tips/7f80a0ffed3a4ff08734bc905aac4a29/Advanced_Over lays/29_Video_Stream.html

    <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/QV1UZ-88HeE?rel=0" frameborder="0" ></iframe>
    Are you using the same embed code format for your overlay?

  • Embedded YouTube videos do not play on my Mac Mini

    Embedded YouTube videos don't play in non-YouTube web pages.  I can click the link in the top of the video to be taken directly to YouTube, and I can watch the video there, but when I click the big Play button in the middle of the video window, I just get a black rectangle.
    I tried uninstalling Flash player as suggested in another thread, rebooted my machine, and reinstalled Flash player, but that did not fix the problem.  This is a non-Flash player problem that Apple should look into.  I have not tried this on other browsers to see if I have the same problem there or not, as I do not use other browsers besides Firefox.  I would rather not have to use another browser just so that I can watch embedded YouTube videos.  I would prefer if Apple (or another knowledgeable user) can post the solution to the problem.  Thanks!

    In Firefox, click Tools>Add-ons. Make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is enabled and "Always activated".
    If that fails, see: How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X  in the Adobe Forums. That will clear out the pluigins and allow a fresh install with the new plugin.

  • Only safari adress bar visible after playing a youtube video.

    Only safari adress bar visible after playing a youtube video, rest of the screen is white, what can I do?

    If you are using Safari for Mac, it could be a Safari extension causing this.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
    If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari, try a video.
    It would really help when you post to tell us which operating system you are using, Mac or  Windows.
    You could also try troubleshooting the Flash plugin which is required for most of the content on YouTube.

  • Embedded Youtube video is not playing in PDF while it is playing in Adobe Content Viewer - Indesign CC

    Hi,
    as a newby to DPS with Indesign CC, I'm currently working on a catalog that contains internal jumlinks and embedded youtube video's.
    All works fine in preview (Folio Overlay > Preview on desktop).
    Then I export to Adobe PDF (Interactive).
    When I open the PDF the internal links work just fint.
    But the Youtube video is not popping up.
    To embed the video I've inserted this code: <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6EXxtnTOnqA?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" ></iframe>
    And I've selected 'autoplay' in the Folio Overlays
    So what am I missing here?
    Thanks for you help,
    Dimitri

    Hi Bob,
    Like I said I'm a Newby, I even don't really understand what you mean with this.
    I'm working in de Digital Publishing toolset (I thought that was DPS).
    I use Folio Overlays over the embedded youtube code, with autoplay on.
    Than I export to PDF interactive, but neither Adobe reader, nor Preview is showing the vid.

  • Embedded YouTube video's keep playing audio after leaving page

    Hi guys,
    My problem is that when I leave the page of my website playing a YouTube video, it just keeps on playing the audio. I will put a copy of my code in this message, maybe I just need to tweek it a little.
    Somebody please help, this is very important for my website, thanks.
    So here is the code I use:
    Security.allowDomain("www.youtube.com");
    var player:Object;
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, onLoaderInit);
    loader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.youtube.com/v/h814ob7nCxo?version=3"));
    function onLoaderInit(event:Event):void {
        addChild(loader);
        loader.content.addEventListener("onReady", onPlayerReady);
        loader.content.addEventListener("onError", onPlayerError);
        loader.content.addEventListener("onStateChange", onPlayerStateChange);
        loader.content.addEventListener("onPlaybackQualityChange",
            onVideoPlaybackQualityChange);
    function onPlayerReady(event:Event):void {
        trace("player ready:", Object(event).data);
        player = loader.content;
        player.setSize(480, 360);
    function onPlayerError(event:Event):void {
        trace("player error:", Object(event).data);
    function onPlayerStateChange(event:Event):void {
        trace("player state:", Object(event).data);
    function onVideoPlaybackQualityChange(event:Event):void {
        trace("video quality:", Object(event).data);

    You added a couple of spaces to the Youtube code.
    Change:
    & border=1
    to:
    &border=1
    in two places so that it matches the code from the Youtube embed code. Or copy the code from Youtube again. The result:
    <td width="45%" align="left"><object width="305" height="214"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4_hzyUKzRII&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x2b405b&color2=0x6b8ab6&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4_hzyUKzRII&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x2b405b&color2=0x6b8ab6&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="305" height="214"></embed></object></td>
    It works in my test.

  • Embedded YouTube videos not working

    Hello,
    Embedded YouTube videos used to work fine up until a few days ago but they have stopped working in all browsers. I use Safari, Firefox and Netscape Navigator.
    I am using Mac OS X (10.6.3) and have just conducted a software update and installed a fresh version of flash. This can't be a browser problem because it is not working on any of the browsers. I am having problems viewing embedded YouTube videos on such sights as Blip.fm, Facebook, etc but they used to work fine a couple of weeks ago.
    Is this a problem with flash? or Mac OS X?

    Another me too. In particular the symptoms are this:
    + any YouTube video embedded within a webpage loads the poster frame and the controls, but after clicking the play button only shows the progress indicator briefly before showing "An error occurred, please try again later." within the video frame.
    + the same YouTube videos play fine on the YouTube site.
    + other Internet video plays fine, embedded or not.
    + when the error occurs Safari reports "One error in opening the page. For more information, choose Window > Activity".
    + the Activity window shows "forbidden" for http://v13.lscache4.c.youtube.com/videoplayback?ip=0.0.0.0&sparams=id%2Cexpire%2 Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Calgorithm%2Cburst%2Cfactor%2Coc%3AU0dWSVhMVV9FSkNNNl9QRllH &fexp=900028&algorithm=throttle-factor&itag=34&ipbits=0&burst=40&sver=3&expire=1 274817600&key=yt1&signature=C15947474FA80C9A1B9DA597103C5FF7D621A478.0C1490DE456 5D519F602B0043A4E1F9D800417A0&factor=1.25&id=c3e8886e8b459334
    + the same URL downloads fine when visiting YouTube directly, except the signature value is different.
    I have tested the following:
    + the same computer worked fine a week or so ago
    + other computers on the same shared ADSL connection work fine
    + Firefox works fine (contrary to other's experiences)
    + deleting com.apple.Safari.plist doesn't help
    + disabling/enabling the "Enable Plug-ins" preference doesn't help
    + deleting Preferences/Macromedia folder doesn't help
    + reinstalling Flash doesn't help
    + empty cache doesn't help
    Tis quite perplexing.
