Safari won't draw my flash files - Firefox will

I am a graphic designer who purchased software that automatically creates Flipbooks out of my PDFs.
The end result are files (including Flash files) that are uploaded to my website area and I distibute the flipbook as a weblink.
I created the flipbook and it works fine on Firefox, but it does not work on Safari. I tried another computer in the office and it does not load on their machine either. I emailed it to a friend and it DID load in his Safari.
Here is an interesting note: I created a new GUEST account on my computer and it DID load in Safari fine as GUEST. Therefore there is something going on with my Admin account (the only account I use). For this to work, I do not want to go around to the other computers in the office and create GUEST accounts. I am of course, concerned that other end-users will not be able to see this - but for now, I just want to fix my machine so that Safari will load these files.
Any thoughts?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Safari won't open web page that Firefox will open

Hello,
I have a specific page on my website that Safari will not display but Firefox will. I have cleared the cache, cookies. Shut down everything, started up...no help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi Eve
Web design & programming are done by humans and nothing is perfect. BUT the site compatibility issues may force me, albeit reluctantly, to switch browsers. I hope Apple, will please, please make Safari more compatible. Form is secondary to function.
On the Mac platform, multiple browsers is the way to go if you want to cover all bases. Here's a list of available browsers:
Firefox 2.0.0.5
Camino,
Mozilla,
Opera,
Shiira,
OmniWeb (shareware).
The Internet has evolved into quite a mess when it comes to site coding practices. For example, there are some sites, using antiquated, proprietary Microsoft software (such as ActiveX) that simply will not play on the Mac platform, Further complicating this situation, some site developers have a tendency to create sites coded specifically for Internet Explorer for Windows, and/or use sloppy coding, which invites other problems into the web experience. By contrast, Safari conforms strictly to web standards promulgated by the Web Standards Project, which may trigger rendering problems when it comes to these sites. In this instance, it's helpful to contact the site developer about your awkward browsing experience.
So there's quite a mix-bag on the web. Personally, I prefer using a browser adhering to coding standards designed to promote conformity, security and safe browsing, rather than the alternative of "form over function". For that reason, Safari is definitely my browser of choice.
For video content, such as Yahoo, CNN etc., which does not play as well on Safari (because of how the developers code these sites), I use Firefox. Others here report Camino or Shiira being good alternatives.
On OS X it's quite easy to have multiple apps open at the same time, so going back and forth between browsers is not a problem. Also, you can export your existing Safari bookmarks to another browser, which maintains some degree of uniformity.

Safari won't open web site but Firefox will

Using Safari 4.0.3 (6531.9)
A site that I visit regularly has recently started giving me an error whenever I try to access it. I can get there just fine using the latest Firefox. I've tried emptying the cache and resetting Safari to no avail.
Here's the error message:

Safari won't connect to internet but firefox will

I just set up a home wifi network. Firefox v 22 works perfectly. However itunes store in itunes fails to open. I also just get a blank screen in Safari with no connectivity to the internet. No address I type into the browser bar generates ANY response. Chrome aso works just fine as a browser, so internet connectivity is NOT an issue. Any ideas on a fix to allow these two Apple products to work?

Back up all data.
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.

Safari doesn't load my flash file

My website (www.webtailoring.com) has 4 pages where flash is
being used near the top banner. Safari has no problem loading the
flash bit on 3 of the 4 pages but for some reason won't load the
swf file on my "contact" page. If you hit refresh or reload several
times it then loads the swf file. Why is this happening???
Thanks for any help,
Dave

I do not have Safari, so I can't check "Activity report".
Could you please forward what's on the report and if you have
suggestions on how to fix problem that would be a great help.
Thanks,
Dave

Swf demo files won't play in flash file on website

Using Captivate 4, I created a project and published to a folder (as Flash 8). The main flash file has 4 swf demo files that are supposed to play on one of the slides; I uploaded all the published files (swf, js, htm) into a folder within my website's CMS. Our CMS uses it's own flash player to play the file; when it plays, all is well except for the slide that is supposed to show the 4 swf demos--these aren't showing up at all. If these demo files are in the same folder in the CMS as the main flash file, why can't it find them to make them play on the slide?
here's a link to the page with the file:
http://stage.lmc.simplicis.net/page/1/testlearningpoint.jsp (see link for "watch this video on city learning point")
--it's the slide with "City Learning Point uses..." that's supposed to play 4 swf demos on the right side of the slide, but they don't show up at all
Our website CMS is hosted and maintained by a vendor--if the issue is with the CMS, I'll need to know what to tell them so we can resolve the issue.

Looks to me like the issue is indeed your CMS. The flash content is loaded in a lightbox, which is most likely controlled by some JavaScript or ASP. My guess would be that the problem lies with the paths to the files. The swf file that the lightbox loads is referenced in your CMS so it knows where to get it - the thing is that most likely it is not played from the location where it's located but instead played from the location where the lightbox script is loaded. Since the 4 SWF's you have are not located there it won't be able to find it.
Also this lightbox approach isn't very good for this type of content. The demo is extremely small and the alignment of the Flash file looks weird. Instead just use the HTML file generated by Captivate and upload that to a directory in your CMS. Then change the link you have so it opens the HTML file in a new window and everything should work out just fine.

Safari won't hit the internet but Firefox does.

I have two Airport Extremes and one Linksys router all on separate channels. I have both Windows and Macs. Windows computers hit all 3 routers. The Mac Air will hit the Linksys using Safari, Mail and iTunes. But is not friendly with the Airport Extremes unless I use Firefox.
My MacBook and iMac will not hit the Airport Extremes with Safari, Mail or iTunes nor the Linksys with Safari, Mail or iTunes. However FireFox will load the internet just fine on all three routers.
When I run Airport diagnostics it reports all three routers are running fine.
What am I missing? My Toshiba, Dell, HP and Fujitu computer hit all three routers using XP and Vista.

Back up all data.
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.

Premiere Pro CC won't play my Flash files

In older versions of Premiere (CS6), I was able to play Flash flv files in my movie sequence. I would download the flv files from iStock as comps and play them in the movie as placeholders until I was ready to purchase them. They no longer play in Premiere CC. What happened and how can I get around this without using an old version of Premiere?
Thanks!!!

Support for importing and exporting Flash files has been removed. Can't import FLV files

When loading any page with Flash content Firefox will always crash. Any Ideas to fix this?

The issue occured following upgrading to 3.6.13 from the previous version.
Firefox will not crash if the Adobe Flash plugin is disabled. I have uninstalled and re-installed Flash player & Firefox, both of which did not solve the problem.
The issue is not present within the latest versions of IE, Chrome, Opera or Safari.
Any help to possibly solve this problem would be greatly appriciated?

Are you getting the crash reporter when it crashes? If so, please provide a crash id -> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report

Safari won't run citrix receiver but firefox does it, I want safari to do this too

Since the change to Mavericks I have a problem running Citrix Receiver in Safari. Before I had no problems what so ever. I discovered that Firefox does the job. But I want Safari to do the job. It must be somewhere in the preference I suspect. Who can help??

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot insafe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Safari won't play all media files.

As the title says I can't play all media files on different web sites. Web sites like SoundCloud and YouTube gives a message about Flash blocker browser setting/plugin error etc. Some files can be played and some can't but this matter only concerns video and audio files. When I go to 'Help -> Installed Plug-ins' there's a '(protected)' text in the 'QuickTime plug-in' list right after 'AAC Audio - m4p' and 'Video - m4v'. I think there's the problem but how can I edit these settings?
This problem came up after downloading the version of Adobe Flash Player. I have installed the latest Adobe Flash Player again and tried to reboot my Mac but it's not helping. I also found doubles of Flash Player from 'Macintosh HD -> Library -> Internet Plug-Ins' folder and deleted older file but neither that didn't help.
This is the QuickTime plug-in list copied from Safari's 'Installed Plug-ins' page:
QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.1

Thank You!

Thanks for your reply baltwo!
It didn't even skipped my mind to look for an answer from System Preferences. Nevertheless it didn't help. When I open 'Trusted Location Settings' it just gives me blank window..
Help still needed.
