Smart Zoom in Safari with YouTube

Hello.
I like the Smart Zoom feature that OS X and Safari has. It allows me to easily doubletap my mouse and Zoom in to whatever I want. I used to do it all the time when I watched YouTube clips, just doubletap and the clip is almost (but not) in full screen. Nice and practical.
However, that is now impossible. Whenever I smart zoom onto a clip, the "black box" that has the actual clip in it and also the controls gets zoomed, but the clip itself does not follow suit.
See the attached screenshot to see what I mean.
I have tried this on a completely new and fresh install of Yosemite.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it? Is this a known issue?
My setup is:
27 inch iMac, Yosemite, Safari 8.02

I mean to say: after you enabe Smart zoom, you have to restart your Mac for the changes to take effect.
I apologize for accidentally leaving out that detail.

  • Smart Zoom in Safari 7/Mavericks?

    After the upgrade to Mavericks Smart Zoom seems not to work in Safari.  Is there a way to re-enable the convenient zooming in of a web page by double tapping my magic mouse?

  • Poor Performance of Safari with YouTube

    Recently I have noticed really poor performance of Safari when I try to watch videoes on YouTube.
    I have experienced this both with my 2009 iMac desktop and my brand new MacBook Pro w/ Retina Display.
    This can't be a network problem because I pay Verizon way too much money every month for their FiOS Quantum service and various speedtests that I run look OK.
    Is the problem with Safari or what?

    You guys are not following me. And, I'm not sure if I used that term right. I was talking about answers you see from google searches, not from people here. I am a 40 year old business owner not a kid. What I meant by "fanboy" is that a lot of times when you search online for something like "Itunes on my PC is not seeing my ipod", you see the most popular answer is "Buy a mac". Yes it may be funny, but it is not really helpful. That is the type of person I was referring to, and I was not talking about people here. People on this discussion board seem to be very helpful. I own macs and PC's, so don't like the answer "get a mac". I have one (three in fact), but I also have PC's. I love my mac computers, my iPhone, my iPad, my AppleTV and all of that just like you guys probably do.
    I still think it is an interesting and strange issue. If you contacted the IE folks, they would say "Are you having this problem on all websites?". As soon as you said "No, just this one". They would say "It must be the way the website is written". If you talk to someone here, the answer might lean towards "If it runs fine on Safari, but not on IE, it must be an IE issue".
    I was just thinking it was an interesting enough scenario that someone had looked into it. Sorry if I was misunderstood and riled someone up.

  • Smart zoom doesn't work in Safari with Mavericks

    After update Mountain Lion to Mavericks, smart zoom in Safari doesn't work for me. Same case with swipe pages. Am i the only one?. Thanks.

    Check your Mouse and/or Trackpad settings in System Preferences. The upgrade may have disabled the Smart Zoom and Swipe gestures.
    Some users (myself included) are finding that re-enabling them doesn't work, though.

  • Smart zoom in Preview?

    You'd think smart zoom would work in preview.............but it doesn't with the images I've opened.

    It works with a PDF for me, with the mouse.  I can't get it to work with a .jpg, and the pinch zoom doesn't work for me either.  Of all the documents you'd think smart zoom would work with, an image file should be at the top of the list!!

  • Smart Zoom Problem? Safari keeps zooming OUT.

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I've had a problem with Smart Zoom. Using a Magic Mouse, I'm aware that it's a double tap to zoom in and another to zoom out. I actually like this feature and use it frequently enough that I don't want to have to turn it off to solve my problem.
    The issue is that pages seemingly randomly zoom OUT and the text becomes very small. I do not know what gesture is doing this and it happens ALL the time. If I double tap, it zooms in, but it is the enlarged zoom in, as if I had done it from the normal text size. I have to hit cmd+0 to get it back to normal. It's become very annoying and I can't seem to find any info on it; everything out there is about zooming in, not out.
    Thanks.
    Safari 6.0
    OS X 10.8.0

    This is a definitely a problem and I've now not only noticed it happen on 2 macs but actually waited and monitored until I finally observed it happening WITHOUT ANY MOUSE CONTACT. Having now witnessed it in two different locations with two macs and two mice, it certainly isn't absent-minded tapping!!
    I wonder if the mice have a static problem or are just oversensitive even to something coming near.
    And btw this only started when I on one occasion upgraded to and on another bought Mountain Lion. It's quite random.

  • Problems with YouTube - iPad app and Safari on iPad

    Recently, I have started to encounter problems with YouTube on the iPad. The first is the desktop version of YouTube on safari. At first it worked fine, but a few days ago, whenever I try to watch a video, the playing area stays black and a message appears saying 'This video is currently unavailable.' One 'solution' I found online was to switch to the HTML5 video player in 'TestTube.' However, as the videos had been working before I didn't see why it was necessary, and anyway when I tried it only a few videos worked, with the rest showing the same message I described earlier. The mobile version of the YouTube site woks fine.
    The second problem lies with the subscriptions feature of the YouTube app. When I tap the subscriptions button, not all of them show up. I've tried finding a video by the user I want to subscribe to, tapping 'More From', followed by 'Subscribe,' but this brings up the error message 'YouTube not avaliable.' Subscribing to any other channel from the app works fine.
    Thanks - any help with either porblem would be greatly appreciated! I don't really want to go to the Apple store, and my free telephone support that came with the iPad finished some time ago.

    OMG Apple, I'm am fed up with this stupid YouTube problem I paid $500 for my iPad if not more, and I expect better! I cannot view official music videos, episodes and I can't even view 2 out of 10 videos I search for. stop trying to make people buy from your stupid iTunes store and let them be able to view all videos on YouTube. Anyone who asks me if I'd recommend and iPad, you know what I say? Its not worth the money because the reason I got an iPad was being able to have freedom just like a pc and clearly I don't have that. They ask me; can an iPad do everything a pc can do, and I say no it can't, all because I can't view videos properly on YouTube. I'm 15 and saved for an iPad and it took me 2 years, $500 I regret spending!
         Kind regards

  • Any ideas why Smart Zoom only working in Safari and not TextEdit, etc.

    I like using Smart Zoom, but it only works in Safari for me. Is anyone else experiencing this or have a suggestion for fixing this? I thought it was supposed to work in TextEdit and some other Apple programs.

    System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing. Is Zoom turned on?
    Also look in System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll & Zoom tab > uncheck Smart zoom
    Or System Preferences > Mouse  > Smart Zoom.
    EDIT: Just tested Text Edit and it won't respomd to a SZ

  • My iPod didn't come with safari or YouTube??

    I bought my new iPod and it doesn't have safari or YouTube.  How do I get them ?

    Those apps can't be deleted.
    - Have you used the Spotlight search on the iPod to try to find them? Maybe you just can't find them.
    - Those two are are ones that can be hidden by Restrictions.  Go to Settings>General>Restrictions.  If it asks for a passcode then Restrictions are set.

  • Smart Zoom Query.

    Does the Smart Zoom function only work with Apple programs like for example Safari, iPhoto or Preview?  I ask because I can't get it to work using Chrome or Acrobat and I have to use the ctrl key then even then it isn't a similar kind of zoom as just tapping the Magic Mouse.
    Is there a way to get the Smart Zoom function of the Magic Mouse to work on non-Apple programs?
    Thanks

  • Hi everyone.   Weird Zoom in Safari

    Hi everyone.
    Something weird is going on with Safari where suddenly and unexpectedly, it will ZOOM in.
    At first I thought it was the new scrolling, three finger swiping, etc that Lion has but I cannot get my Magic Mouse to zoom in or out at any time, without holding the command key, just as before with Snow Leopard.
    Also, when it has super zoomed, the Command Key + Magic Mouse function will not zoom it out again.
    So either Safari 5.1 or Lion has a bug, or I'm doing it with my Magic Mouse but I don't know what I'm doing!
    Anyone shed some light or anyone suffering the same problem?  It makes filling out forms on most sites impossible.  I am using Mozilla for most browsing now.''

    It sounds like the new Lion feature of "smart zoom"  only a few programs support it but Safari is one of them.
    A double tab with one finger will zoom and another double tap will unzoom.

  • Why does Android Reader smart zoom not work as described on Google Nexus 7 2013 tablet?

    The smart zoom feature in Android Acrobat Reader allows you to double tap on a text column and the reader will zoom up to the column in improve readability.  This feature works great on the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 smart phone, but only appears to zoom half way on the Google Nexus 7 2013 tablet.
    Is this a bug?
    Thanks in advance for your replies.

  • Safari and Youtube can't connect to server

    Safari and Youtube can't connect to server but I can use iTunes online store. Isn't that strange? Any ideas why?
    I use static ip-adresses on my home network with a WEP 128bit security. I have entered all configuration that I enter under tcp/ip properties on my but there is one property on the touch that I don't recognise from my PC and that is someting that translated could be named "Search Domains". It's the last property under the static wireless config tab.

    I have no idea what I am doing... but once i changed the proxy (HTTP) my life is just miserable, no sites open, like its really annoying. Do you know how to fix it.

    I have a problem with youtube...i can't watch some videos from youtube! They stop after few seconds of playing!! what can i do to fix it??

    Try loading the same video in different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer are your best options). If the issue is across all of them, make sure you've downloaded the latest version of Flash at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    If it's still stopping after that...Do the tried and tested method for everything: reset your router.
