[SOLVED] Youtube Video showing up on every window I open?

Hello all, I'm getting this strange error. A youtube video (Appearing as it does before you click the play button when it is embedded) is showing up in every window I open (of any sort, it even shows up on games like minecraft) before that part of the window is filled with the actual program or image I am trying to load. It also seems to show up on black colors afterward. I'm completely lost here, any ideas?

What is other relevant data?
Yes, my system is up to date, and it only seemed to do it starting last night. It wasnt uptodate before this morning though.
I've realized it also shows up in the top left corner over anything black.

Answers in this forum have shown different things have worked for different people.
For some clearing YouTube cookies and the cache solved the problem. For details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Deleting+cookies and https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+clear+the+cache
Others had to go a step further after deleting YouTube cookies and block YouTube from saving cookies. In the Tools menu select Options to open the Options window. Go to the Privacy panel and make sure it is set to "Use custom setting for history". Click the Exceptions button, type in http://www.youtube.com and click on Block
Another option is to disable hardware acceleration for Flash. To do that right-click on a Flash video, select Settings, go to the first tab of the settings for the option to enable/disable hardware acceleration for Flash. This is something recommended by YouTube for those having problems - http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?&answer=1209379

How to "Show options" in every window at once?

In many Illustrator windows, useful tools and settings are hidden by default unless you open the flyout menu in the top corner and choose "show options".
I always want to "show options", everywhere, all the time.
Whenever I come to use or help someone with Illustrator on a new machine, new user account, new install, or after trashing preferences for any reason, it's necessary to click through every window showing its options. It's a nuisance and I always forget some windows, which means when I then use that window I'll be puzzled that a tool I'm used to isn't where I remember it being.
Is there any way to "Show options" everything at once? Or set it to never hide options anywhere? I've been right through Preferences and found nothing that looks relevant.
It'd be really useful for the above situations and also for helping beginners ("Let's see, is 'Scale strokes and effects' ticked in the transform window?", "There is no 'Scale strokes and effects' in the transform window!", "What, are you sure?" etc etc...)

I think you're misunderstanding the question, I'm asking how to open out all the options in every window.
Your answer is how to save it as a custom workspace after I've shown options. It saves them as being open by default, so that isn't a problem. A custom workspace might be useful as a backup or to transfer to another computer but I often want different workspaces on different computers (e.g. because of screen size differences). I just want to know how to "show options" in every window at once.

my iphone 5s was stolen and i gps d it and found where it was but they turned it off and denied it and i googled how to open iphone 5s without passcode and a youtube video showed how, so now i am out of a phone that i just paid 300 dollars for because i dropped my last 5s and the glass shattered and i didnt have any insurance. so now it seems like i am out again. i was sold on the fact that the fingerprint sensor would stop that from happening but they can just reset the phone and have it as theirs new. is there anything i can do to get my phone back.

If you set up your phone correctly, it is still protected by the Activation Lock and can be used without knowing your AppleID and password.
Here are some more things about that:
What if your iOS device is off or offline?
If your missing device is off or offline, you can still put it in Lost Mode, lock it, or remotely erase it. The next time your device is online, these actions will take effect. If you remove the device from your account while it's offline, any pending actions for the device will be cancelled.
How do you turn off or cancel Lost Mode?
You can turn off Lost Mode by entering the passcode on your device. You can also turn off Lost Mode on iCloud.com or from the Find My iPhone app.

everything right with IE but problem only with firefox :(
please help me

Hi,
Does this happen in Safe Mode or with extensions/plugins disabled? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
[Try the add on HTTPS Everywhere and disable youtube.com in the HTTPS Everywhere rules and I can watch YouTube videos in this Firefox profile as long as it's not over SSL]
In youtube you can also try to change the video quality or disable hardware acceleration.
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

Youtube videos show blank

If I go to Youtube, all videos show blank. No video. No playback. Nothing. Just a blank white area where the video should be. No problem with Firefox. What is going on?
Safari 4.0.5 on Mac OS X 10.6.3.

HI,
Try uninstalling then reinstalling a new copy of the Flash Player plugin which is required for YouTube content.
Uninstall Flash
Install Flash
Then Repair Disk Permissions
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac.*

YouTube videos not working properly in Windows 8

Hello - I have bought my first windows 8 computer today.
One of the first things I did was install Mozilla Firefox and then Adobe Flash.
To my horror, when I tried to load a YouTube video, one second of the video clip played, then the standard YouTube error message appears.
I have checked that I have properly installed flash player, that my firewall settings are correct, and that i have the latest video drivers.
Flash seems to work on everything besides YouTube and the Microsoft help forum (the submit button wouldn't work...) this is the same in Firefox and whichever version of IE I have installed on here
Any help is greatly received!
Thanks
Sam

Hello - at the time of writing the original post, I thought I had tried everything...
It turns out, however that Mozilla Firefox does not give you the option to enable or disable activex. As I hate Internet Explorer with a passion, I completely forgot to try disabling activex in that browser until I was absolutely forced to, when I re-read the instructions on the page that you have linked me to... (however I did this before you posted it.)
To cut a long story short, I ended up (after a solid four hours of trying different things) deleting my favourite browser (Firefox) and have now installed Google Chrome, which allows me to watch all the YouTube videos I desire... I'd just turned my computer on to remove this post when I saw that you had replied.
I shall send the Mozilla Devs an email and let them know about this issue - hopefully it will get somewhere in future updates!
Many thanks!
Sam

New canon SX50 Does not to zoom as well as YOUTUBE videos show....

Hello!
SX50 HS
I've been seeing Youtube videos of people shooting the moon, but even with my lens all the way to 1200mm, Digital zoom on to 2x, I'm still not getting as close to see the craters as some people can get...what am I doing wrong?
Should I also be concerned that when I zoom onto a subject..like the moon, and track right on top of it, the lens seems to FLOAT all over the place...would the image stabilizer help this?
Thank you!

It's a bit confusing because Canon has two different features... one called "digital zoom" the other is called "digital teleconverter" in the manual... but the menu system label for that same feature says "digital zoom" (but is not the same digital zoom.)
See page 55 of your manual for instructions on how to use digital zoom. Briefly... you use the zoom level to perform optical zoom until the lens stops moving. THEN... release and push the zoom level again and it will add digital zoom to the optical zoom.
On page 132 they explain "digital teleconverter" via the menu system... but then go on to say that you cannot combine digital zoom and digital teleonverter at the same time. Digital teleconverter (labeled "digital zoom" on the menu) will only offer 1.5x and 2x.
Not the most straight-forward user interface, I agree... but now that you know, hopefully you can get the camera to do what you want.
Good luck!
Incidentally... if you don't have your owners manual, you can download it here: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/digital_cameras/powershot_sx50_hs#BrochuresA...

How do I solve this error issue i get every time I open the program?

This happens every time I open muse. It just happens in muse and nothing else. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and i have wiped all of my adobe files off my computer and then re installed them and it still didnt solve the issue.
Adobe Muse CC has encountered an error and will now exit. Please report the last few actions you took leading up to this error to the Adobe Muse CC team. Assertion failed in file "/Users/erato/Desktop/workspace/Build_Blob_Mac/dvaapp/Muse/project/mac/../../src/MuseIMSC onnector.cpp" at line 856: fUserEmailId==dvacore::utility::UTF8to16(emailID) user id mismatch

Hello,
please do the following steps and you will be all set.
1. Sign out from Muse By going to Help > Sign out. (if you see the option to do that)
2. Sign out from Creative Cloud Application. (Steps are mentioned in the link Sign out, Sign in | Creative Cloud Desktop app), then Quit Creative Cloud Application.
3. Rename the "OOBE" folder to "OOBEold"
MAC : (This folder can be found at Finder > Go > Go to Folder> Type ~/library/application support/Adobe > Hit return)
Widows : ( This folder can be found at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe )
4. Relaunch Muse, Sign in with your Adobe ID.
Please let me know if the steps above do not work or if you have any confusion.
Regards
Vivek

Since updating Firefox, just about every window I open uses a script font that is very small and unreadable -- why, and how can I get it to use normal fonts?

I never had this issue before the last update I made. The font is a font on my computer and I thought that maybe it was the font and if I disabled it, the problem would go away. But sadly, it just picks another fancy script installed on my computer. It doesn't matter how many I disable, Firefox continually picks another fancy script to replace the ones I've disabled. What's odd is that some windows I open are almost entirely the fancy script and others may only have one line or a heading in the script. This is not an issue at all on Safari and was never a problem on Firefox until the next to last update I made.

You can do a check for corrupted and duplicate fonts and other font issues:
*http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/multipleappsquit.html - Font Book 2.0 Help: Checking for damaged fonts
*http://www.creativetechs.com/iq/garbled_fonts_troubleshooting_guide.html
You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
*http://browserspy.dk/fonts-flash.php?detail=1
You can also try different default fonts.
* Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced
*[ ] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

Why do Youtube videos show being completely loaded, but aren't actually loaded?

It's kinda hard to explain. Ever since downloading Firefox 4, I've been getting this odd error in Youtube, and Youtube only. When viewing a video, the time bar or whatever you want to call it shows it's fully loaded, even when just starting to view. Also, when it ends the recommended videos, replay button, Like button, etc, show up a good 3-5 seconds before the video actually ends. This is not an error with Youtube itself. Since I tested it in other browsers. Namely Google Chrome, Opera and even Internet Explorer and didn't experience this problem. What should I do?

It's very difficult to say without knowing more about your system. There are a number of possibilities. First, your 13" lacks a discrete GPU, so the CPU is doing the work that a GPU would have done as far as decoding video streams, etc. Each video stream will consume considerable resources from the machine, and if you have multiple things running with video streams being decoded (for example, a browser with video Flash or cumbersome animation and iMovie running at the same time), then that may be a factor.
Additionally, it could be that you are memory constrained. You didn't post a picture of the process list from activity monitor or the memory usage stats, but you probably want to look and see what the memory and CPU usage is and who's consuming what. Some applications are pretty inefficient. For example, if you have iPhoto open and have thousands of images, the indexed metadata and thumbnails are all stored in RAM. iMovie pulls in clip thumbnail sets - (and worse, it has to do on-the-fly transcoding video assets from some cameras that don't encode the video using the parameters it expects to make indexing frames easier). Again, this would show up as periodic spikes in CPU activity for the app.
You seem to have plenty of disk space, that's not likely to be a problem.
Check if Time Machine is running. Time Machine introduces a performance impact, but it's exacerbated by the presence of frequently changed large files (e.g., you don't want Time Machine backing up your video projects while you are working on them).
Lastly, you may consider checking the console for error messages. This might reveal background processes that might be bogging down the system, or things like filesystem/disk errors. If there are errors in the filesystem, when you access certain portions of the disk, the OS and applications can slow down or lock-up as a result.
