Safari won't play youtube videos anymore. I've never had trouble in the past. I switched to chrome but then back to safari and changed the default browser to safari. Now safari won't open any sites that require a user and password. Any suggestions?

Hello everyone,
I've recently been getting error messages on youtube videos when using safari. This never used to happen. I tried using chrome but it didn't take care of the problem. When I set my default browser back to safari, safari won't open any websites that require a username and password. Any suggestions?

My case is different from those listed below. First, I'm running OS X 10.8.5 and Safari 6.0.5.
My problem is this:
I run a Google search, say, "youtube somesong", and from the hit list returned from google I
pick some selection. Youtube launches and plays the video without problems. However, when
i click on any of the alternate videos from the page's vertical list, only the name of the chosen video
appears beneath the video I just watched. The new selection itself is not loaded by Safari.
This occurs for any selection I choose. My way around this problem is to force a Safari reload of
the page by using the keyboard shortcut, Command-R. This fills in the old video window with the
video I just chose. Can I conclude that this is a Safari issue alone, or is it a Safari/Youtube combo gotcha? Anyway, the present condition *****.
This problem began sometime after i upgraded to Mountain Lion. I have reset Safari and have also
deleted the Youtube.com Cache, Cookies, and Local Storage from the Privacy settings under
System Preferences. I have also tested the problem by running Safari in 32 bit mode (no luck there).
If anyone out there has experienced this scenario, I sure could use a little help here.

Is it possible to play youtube video in safari browser on WiFi in iOS devices ?

Hello Support,
I have a query regarding playing you tube videos in iOS devices (like iphone,ipad). I can able to play youtube videos in safari browser in iphone on 3G data connection but can not play the same video on WiFi. I am facing the same issue in the youtube iOS application also. Is it possible to play youtube video on WiFi in iOS devices ? Please help me to fix this issue.
Thanks

My understanding is that you should definitely be able to play youtube videos using a Wi-Fi network. To me, it sounds as though the issue may be more network related as the videos will work over cellular data. I have a couple questions I believe could help narrow down the exact issue:
• Is the device able to browse to other websites while connected to Wi-Fi, or will no sites work?
• Are there other devices (iPads, iPhones, computers, etc) that work on the same Wi-Fi network?
These are some troubleshooting articles that come to mind as well:

Unable to play youtube videos after OS 10.2.1.2977 update

Hi, I got an OS update two days back "10.2.1.2977". after updating, all the data in my memory card got wiped off and I am unable to play youtube videos both in browser and Supertube/fasttube apps, it's showing as "Error1: Internal" I tried rebooting but the problem is still there. Does anyone faced the same problem. Please suggest me a way to get rid of this problem. Appreciate your help

Alternatively, you can use an autoloader to reload the software.
You can download it here for the same os:
http://filefactory.com/file/7il26x7cisqd/10.2.1_B3247_Z10-3G.rar
Note that using this will also wipe all data from the phone.
How to use?
1) download it and extract it
2) connect the device to a pc
3) run the Exe file, it will automatically wipe and load the os in

Safari in 64-bit mode on Snow Leopard does not play YouTube videos

Recently Safari stopped playing youtube videos while Safari is in 64-bit mode. The entire page renders correctly; however the area where the video is supposed to play remains a black box without controls. I can watch video from other sites, or I can watch video from youtube if I use another browser like firefox. Additionally, I can go to the youtube video owner's channel and view videos there just fine. It's only when I try to view videos that use the "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" method of displaying a video using Safari in 64-bit mode that it fails to play -- it plays fine with Safari in 32-bit mode.

@Annorax64: are you sure the problem is limited to the latest Flash Player? I'm pretty sure I was still running 10.1 when I first saw it, after getting an error "Safari Flash Player (Safari Internet plug-in) quit unexpectedly."
Upgrading to 10.2 didn't help.
It's not !. Flash player 10.1 is no better (as you can verify by downgrading here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html)

Blackberry having trouble playing youtube videos

I own a blackberry curve 8530 and its having trouble playing youtube videos. It plays youtube videos up to 59 seconds and then it stops. It gives me the same error message saying:
"An error has occured attempting to play the media".
I have tried turning on and off my phone, pressing alt+enter+del, and doing the battery pull. None of those methods have worked.
Has anyone had this problem, and if so, how did you fix it? Ive pretty much have tried everything i could think of and none of the forums seems to have a solution.
Is the phone the problem or is youtube?
If you know of the solution, your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello hashbrown602,
The following post by Cory from the Inside BlackBerry Help Blog outlines a few steps you can try to successfully play videos from YouTube.
http://helpblog.blackberry.com/2011/03/watch-youtube-on-blackberry/
If you still have issues after going through each of the steps, you may want to contact your wireless service provider to check your data plan settings.

Safari not playing youtube videos

safari not playing youtube videos all of a sudden plz help playing on chrome and safari plug in and flash player is up to date and java is enabled ...

I found on an other post more informations. The problems is in OS X since Yosemite 10.10.1 it doesn't work, we will have to wait for a new Update form apple (10.10.2) to resolve that issue.
Use an other browser instead meanwhile. For more information ; Re: Yosemite 10.10.1 causing Safari not to play YouTube videos...

Hi Mohan_111
Thank you for posting and welcome to Nokia forum!
Things to try:
1. Uninstall and reinstall the Youtube downloader.
Restart your phone
1. Press and hold the power button until the phone vibrates and switches off.
2. Switch your phone on again.
Reset the settings
Restore the original factory settings (Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone management > Factory settings > Restore). This reset will not delete any data on your phone it will just restore the settings back to default state.
Update the software
Make sure your phone is running the latest software. Use Nokia Suite to update or reinstall the phone software.

Latest Version of Player not playing YouTube videos to end.

Version 11,4,402,287 on Chrome and Safari play YouTube video short of end.
1080p is like 15 sec from end, 720p plays to 10 sec from end, 480p to end or just short of end.
Seems like a buffering problem.
But Version 11,5,31,101 on Chrome Canary plays fine.
Mac OSX 10.7.5

This sounds like a problem with the current version of the PPAPI version of Flash built into the Chrome browser (especially if this is fixed in a canary build.) Try installing the system plugin version and switching Chrome to that one to see if it helps.

Why does Mac Safari stutter playing YouTube videos?

While playing YouTube videos (or other streaming videos) in Safari
using both Snow Leopard and Lion, the video's stutter and stop.
When I use the Google Chrome browser, the videos play perfectly.
I can find no way to set the buffering values.
I don't feel that this is a hardware or network problem.
This is very annoying, Apple please fix this.
An example video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=Yfbchq0xQmQ&vq=medium#t=

You posted in the correct forum... Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin. Try troubleshooting.
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 the currently installed Flash plugin first before reinstalling.
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.
BTW, this is not an Apple issue. Flash is third party software for which Apple is not responsible for developing or updating. That's Adobe's job.

Why won't Firefox for Android on my Kindle Fire HD play YouTube videos?

The default browser (Silk) on the Kindle Fire HD plays YouTube videos. Both Firefox for Android and Silk obviously use the same operating system and hardware. What needs to be done to/with the Firefox for Android browser so that it will play YouTube videos. Firefox on my desktop machine plays YouTube videos.

There is the old insecure Flash 11.1 Plugin that Adobe (and Google Play) has not supported since Android 4.0. As long as you have Android 4.3 or older then you can get the Flash plugin to work in manual install though Android 4.4 has made it so Flash will not work.
However Mozilla has made a workaround for Flash can still work in Firefox on Android 4.4 in as early as Firefox 27.0 if I recall.
There is this thread on getting Flash installed however the poster mentions Dolphin and not Firefox instead.
http://www.amazon.com/forum/kindle?_encoding=UTF8&cdForum=Fx1D7SY3BVSESG&cdThread=TxTR71JR4GVXQM
Not that some sites (News sites are among some I encountered) have since lately been requiring users using Flash 11.1 on Android, PlayBook and Flash 11.2.x on Linux to upgrade to more current (not possible) to view their Flash videos.

Can't play YouTube videos on Safari

Hi I can't play YouTube videos on Safari any more. I have noticed that I can play videos on Safari but not on YouTube. When atempting to watch a video on You Tube it won't finish loading. It appears to load at first evenutally stops before the video can play. I then receive the "Plug-in Failure" message.
I am using Safari 5.1.7 on Mac OS X 10.7.4.
I believe I am using the latest version of Abobe Flash Player, which I downloaded when I first noticed the problem.
Please note I do not wish change to a different web browser. Thanks for reading.

Yes, but I could be mistaken. Below is the version of Flash Player I am using:
Shockwave Flash
Shockwave Flash 11.3 r300 — from file “Flash Player.plugin”.
application/futuresplash
FutureSplash Player

application/x-shockwave-flash

Why won't my macbook pro play youtube videos?

Why wont my macbook pro play youtube videos????
I bought this over the summer and it's now Nov 28th. I've had it with this thing and nobody is answering my question! Please help!
I reset safari, emptied my cache, cleared my history, uninstalled and re-installed flash player and nothing has helped. In fact, un/reinstalling flash player worsened the problem. And I cannot update it becuase it says "not recognized".
I do have avast anti-virus: but I can't fix the warnings in it (after I scan, some warnings popup and it wont let me fix it and I have no idea where to find it in the computer itself). Does this have anything to do with it? I need virus protection, so I dont want to get rid of it.
I do not have the money to buy firefox (and it's never worked for me ever anyways).
I know it's not my internet because my dad's pc works great and my sister's mac (for school) loads youtube videos instantly.
I also have this annoying issue where every page on the interned needs to be reloaded three times before itll load the first time. It sits there for five minutes and does nothing, then I reload the page and BAM its loaded: EXCEPT YOUTUBE.
For a $1400 machine, I'd like to know what and why this is happening.

Perhaps there is something wrong with your software and/or a corrupt cache file outside of the browser.

Hmm hard to tell what's causing this. May have to do a process of elimination to cure everything on the machine.

Uninstall the anti-virus, they always cause issues on Mac's.
You say you need anti-virus, so install the free ClamXav, it's a program you run as you need it, because 99% of the malware out there is for Windows and won't run on a Mac, thus you can just run ClamXav when you need it on where you need it. Won't bugger up the machine.
I do not have the money to buy firefox (and it's never worked for me ever anyways).
Firefox is a free web browser by the open source community, it's very powerful and highly customizable with more add-ons, extensions, personas, themes than any other browser. Some things can be done on Firefox can't be done on any other browser at all. Certainly for someone who is a bit more seasoned to use it fully.

You mentioned your "dad" and you've mentioned a delay loading pages and not YouTube at all.
Are you by any chance the Administrator of the computer? Can you install Firefox if you wanted too just as a experiment or does it ask for a Admin name and password and you can't provide it?
"Nannyware" has the ability to block sites and slow down page draws as it's consulting with the nannyware company if that site is suitable to be loaded on your machine.
If your are the Admin of the machine, then your going to have to methodically go through the fix it list I've generated here to resolve your issue as I cant' tell what's causing your problem specifically behind a screen.
If it's too much for you, take the machine to a local Mac/PC software repair shop and they can fix you up.
I suspect by #12 your machine will be fixed.
