Tried to watch a video, says safari can't download

Safari can't download videos,

Correct. Safari doesn't download videos or any files except PDFs and Images.
However it can play videos if they are in one of the formats it supports. What format was the video you were trying to watch in? What website is it on?

    I have an iPhone 4 and want to download an audiobook from audible.com. My iPhone says safari can't download the item . Why? Also the audible app is for iPhone 5 and above ? Any suggestions ?

    Also the audible app is for iPhone 5 and above
    According to https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/audiobooks-from-audible/id379693831?mt=8 it only requires iOS 5 or later and it is "optimized" for iPhone 5. I think it will likely work well on your iPhone 4.
    Compatibility: Requires iOS 5.0 or later. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.

  • HT4623 I tried several times to download iTunes version 6.3.1 but it says safari can't download file. What do I do next?

    Need help installing iTunes version 6.3.1 or higher on my iPhone 4S. It tells me that safari can't open the file.

    You don't update Safari on your phone, it's built into the iOS.  You update Safari on your computer, and the latest version is 10.7, not 6.3.1; available here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/.

  • I cannot download Firefox on my iPad. Says "safari can not download." help!

    I have os 10.5

    Apple's restrictions prevent Mozilla from distributing Firefox for iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch). But you can install [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/home/ Firefox Home] , a free app that lets you have access to your Firefox desktop tabs, bookmarks, and history on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
    Apple dislikes any application that takes focus away from their own products. If Apple allowed Mozilla to release an official Firefox app, it would take their customers away from using the Apple developed Safari browser.

    i am trying to watch a video on youtube but i have no flash player?  I downloaded ADOBE but it keeps saying i need to update my flash player.

        Enable Plug-ins
        Safari > Preferences > Security
        Internet Plug-ins >  "Allow  plug-ins"
        Enable it.
        Press " Manage Website Settings" button for more options.

  • Can you lower FaceTime volume while watching other videos in Safari/ listening to music in iTunes?

    Can you lower FaceTime volume while watching other videos in Safari/ listening to music in iTunes? Many times when I am FaceTiming I also watch videos in Safari and listen to music in iTunes. Can the volume be adjusted for FaceTime in Mavericks because the audio now overtakes every other application on my computer?

    Yes, it is standard. But be sure you're looking in your main library, not the library in your home folder. But I recently discovered something far more convenient in the Developer folder. You can install the developer tools on your install/restore disk.
    Check out *Developer > Extras > PreferencePanes > Processor.prefPane*
    That'll actually let you modify the CPU activation settings from your menu bar or *System Preferences*.
    Oh, sweet nerdery!

  • HT4157 My iPad. Oonnects to other wifi it used to connect to my work wifi but it will. Not connect now what is work I am connected with my iPhone but iPad will. Not connect or it says safari can not open page

    I can connect my iPhone to my work wifi but when I try to connect my IPad it will not connect. It says safari can not open page.  What's up with that I have used IPad connected to work wifi before

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Why do I keep getting error occurred. Please try later again when trying to watch youtube videos

    Why do I keep getting "Error occurred. Please try later again." , eveytime when trying to watch youtube videos. I have the latest adobe flash player and java so why can't I watch videos at youtube??
    It's very, very, frustrating having had so many people tell me I need to change my browser to you guys at mozilla firefox.
    I've tried everything but still cannot view the youtube videos. I have a 32 bit Toshiba laptop.
    God bless, I await your reply,
    Daniele

  • How can I watch a video? I can hear it but I can't see it.

    How can I watch a video? I can hear it but I can't see it.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately the number you've posted is not the Model or Product No. - see the guide on the link below for details on finding this information.
    http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00033108
    In the meantime, try a clean installation of the flash plugin/activeX as follows.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the notebook.
    When windows has reloaded,use Recovery Manager to reinstall your original graphics driver(s) - see the guide on the following link on how to use this software to reinstall drivers.
    Recovery Manager - Windows 8.
    After this reinstallation, restart the notebook again, then download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    When the installation has completed, restart the notebook once more.

  • Hello my MacBook is crashing when I watch Youtube videos. Safari and Flash Player are updated.

    Hello,
    My MacBook is crashing when I watch Youtube videos. Safari and Flash Player are updated.
    What is the problem?
    It will be necessary to take him on a technical assistance?
    thank you

    Have you tried an alternate browser to see if the same issue happens? Try Firefox or Chrome. Chrome has Flash embedded in it, so if it doesn't work, it's probably not a Flash issue. FIrefox is at http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and Chrome is at https://www.google.com/chrome .
    Another thing to try is to sign up for HTML5 video from Youtube. See http://www.youtube.com/html5
