Unable to open view youtube. Add-on and plug in open in basic view only no images. why?

FIRST PART. All of a sudden we can no longer open or view videos from youtube. All that appears is a black box. Next is when we open add-ons the view is basic, no images, unable to do certain trouble shooting. What have we done over the last four hours to try and correct? From what we remember, deleted and reinstalled firefrox, reinstalled adobe, java, real time. deleted plug on and addons. reset numerous box's in security and other various screens, deleted files extension and plug ins. open in safe mode. I think you get the point, we are at our wits end and need some help. i will try to past a screen print of what the addon page looks like.
Of course that did not work either, I could not find the paint program and tried to save word, no luck. AARRGGHHH.
Any new suggestions?

Since you already tried deleting the permissions database and creating a new profile, I would not expect you to find that Firefox is blocking images on the Add-ons site. You can double-check using the Page Info dialog, Media Panel.
While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Media
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Media
Click in the list of files and use the down arrow key on the keyboard to move down through the list, keeping an eye on the "Block Images from" checkbox, and uncheck it if you see it checked for any of the servers. (see attached screen shot)
Can you load any of the images from the page directly? For example:
* https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/media/img/app-icons/med/firefox.png (inline image)
* https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/media/img/zamboni/discovery_pane/promos/monthly-bg.png (background image)
* https://addons.cdn.mozilla.net/media/img/app-icons/16/sprite.png (icon sprite background image)
If any of those do load, if you reload the main Add-ons page, do the images now populate?
I still suspect external software or an external filter. Maybe it triggers on "addons" (looks like an ad server?) or "cdn". See whether you have anything that might block images based on the address, and see whether you can educate it.

    Hi
    I have Mountain Line with Safari 6.0.2. I used to open Facebook, Youtube, Twitter etc. and everytime I select "Stay signed in" "Remember my password" etc. but it doesn't save my passwords and everytime I have to sign in again. I never sign out from these websites but when I open it next time, it requires username & password.
    Does anybody know the problem & solution, plz help. I also found disk erros and reaoired permissiomn and the restarted and did disk utlty again and repaired the same disk errors and then did a restart and still does not remember passwords or ask me. Did all this still no luck it saved apple login on here and saved gmail account but others one it used to save does no longer.here is what i did below and still no luck.
    Instructions
    Set Your Passwords Preferences
    1
    Open up your Safari Web browser and choose 'Preferences' from the Safari pull down menu
    2
    Click on the heading 'AutoFill.'
    Click on the box next to 'User Names and Passwords.'
    4
    Close the 'Preferences' window.
    Save Your Passwords
    5
    Go to a Web page that requires a password and enter in your chosen password. Safari will then ask if you would like to save this password.
    6
    Click on the button 'Yes' in order to save the password.
    7
    Complete steps 1 and 2 for any other passwords that you want Safari to remember.
    Manage Your Passwords
    8
    Go to the 'AutoFill' section in the Safari Preferences window.
    9
    Click on the 'Edit' button to the right of where it says 'User Names and Passwords.' This will bring up a window displaying all of the passwords and usernames that you have authorized Safari to save.
    10
    Click on a password listing and push the 'Remove' button in order to delete the password from Safari's memory.
    11
    Choose 'Remove All' in order to delete all of the saved passwords.
    12

    I suggest that you run software update, after which you should have Safari 6.0.5 - then check Safari - Preferences - Privacy & see that 'Block cookies' is not set to Always.
    Failing that - switch Safari extensions Off via Safari - Preferences - Extensions & test again

  • Videos will no longer play and add-ons and plug-ins say up to date?

    My computer no longer plays videos-- whether on facebook or youtube... facebook videos get a tiny square but never open to play-- youtube screen where video should be is blank... all add-ons and plug-ins say up to date. I have comcast internet. Thank you

    Please try two things, please clear the storage for the flash plug in by right clicking where the video should be and clicking "Global settings" and navigate to storage. Clear the stored data and restart Firefox.
    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.

    Open the General tab of the Safari preferences and correct the home page; the default page is this one. If it has become set to a folder on an FTP server or a local drive, that request will be sent to the Finder. (28252)

    Clicking on the dashboard icon opens up the dashboard briefly, and then it opens up Scrabble in Chrome. How do I get it to operate properly?

    Back up all data.
    In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the menu bar. From the Library folder, move the following item to the Trash, if it exists:
    Caches/com.apple.dashboard.client
    and move the following items to the Desktop:
    Preferences/com.apple.dashboard.client.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.dashboard.plist
    Log out, log back in, and test. If you still have the issue, put the items on the Desktop back where they came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the items.

  • Unable to open .eps file "unknown format and cannot be opened" ?

    A client sent me an .eps file (logo). I tried opening it in Illustrator AND photoshop (just to see if it was saved in one vs the other program) - however to no avail.
    Illustrator gives me a message "unknown format and cannot be opened"
    Photoshop gives me a message "photoshop was unable to parse the postscript".
    I'm using Adobe CS4, and I've never seen this message before—would love to know what this means and how to resolve?
    File attached if anyone is able to open / fix it?
    Thanks kindly,
    Chemol

    Thanks for the advice Scott - does compression improve the .eps?  Is it
    silly for me to ask them to compress it since the file is only 766 KB
    (that's how big the attachment is in my email - though I am unable to open
    it)?
    My friend is able to open it on his end - however the 3rd person (client) is
    the one who sent it, and I have already requested a different version - no
    response from them yet.  Unfortunately what the company "has" is what he
    will likely give to me again (ie: same file / unable to open).  So ... I am
    curious about how I can resolve this issue on my end - if possible?
    Do you know what the AI and Photoshop error messages mean? Could the issue
    be a mac vs PC concern? Or is it a corrupt file? Could it be a software
    version issue (old vs new) ... or Quark incompatibility?
    .... just guessing at this point....Any insight as to what different
    scenarios may apply in this situation would be greatly appreciated ..thank

  • Bad script nsExtensionManager.js:623 locks up Firefox add-ons and plug-ins

    I've started getting the message below any time I try to use add-ons or plug-ins such as Google toolbar and Yoono.
    A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
    Script: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js:623
    Neither the "cancel" nor the "stop script" button will make the warning box go away. Nothing but a reboot will. And any time I try to go to Tools-Add-ins, or use any Add-ins, the box comes back and I'm locked up again.
    Rebooting does not solve the problem, and oddly, reinstalling Firefox does not solve the problem. I also opened Firefox in SAFE mode, and I still get the exact same problem.

    You're probably not exiting Firefox completely. Open the task manager and choose the Processes tab. Find the firefox.exe, select it and end process. If you have the Firefox Preloader installed, look for the FirefoxPreloader.exe and end that process as well. You'll know everything is closed when the error message stops reappearing. Hopefully this will enable you to open safe-mode. (;

  • Try to open Acrobat 7.0 standard, and the reader opens

    The title says it all. The Reader is the default to look at pdf documents, but why does the reader program open when I want Acrobat?
    I have to have the reader as the default (long story, but we have some accounting software that might be 'upset' at the change.
    If I have to set Acrobat 7.0 as the standard, how do I do it, since the reader opens?
    two cents ¢¢

    Thanks, but that does not address what is the problem. I did just that. I double clicked ACROBAT, and the reader opened. I closed the reader, and doub le clicked Acrobat again. Again the reader opened. I did this about 3 or 4 times.
    Eventually, acrobat did open (and then, when I wanted the reader, acrobat opened..
    So, it sounds as if this is a program that might have to be wrestled with.

  • After installing Firefox 12.0 now it freezes on "checking add-ons" and won't open

    I got an update notice and installed Firefox 12.0. I installed and the program froze during "Checking Your Add-Ons" portion of the install. Now Firefox will not open. Keeps getting stuck on that same step of the install. Tried installing 4 different old versions of firefox and the exact same problem. I sit and wait up to 20 minutes and nothing happens, I just get an hour-glass for checking add-ons phase of install. I'm using windows 7.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
    Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
    New files will be created when required.
    See "Corrupt extension files":
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
    If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to check if there is a compatibility update available.
    Also check for problems with the prefs.js file and a possible user.js file.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Preferences+are+not+saved
    You can create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Firefox keeps opening a YouTube tab over and over

    I have two separate PCs that run the latest version of Firefox.
    The homepage on both is the same...www.centurylink.net
    When Firefox has been opened for a couple minutes it adds a tab of a YouTube page of a McDonalds Super Bowl commercial. As time goes by it opens more and more tabs of the same thing.
    I have done the following...
    Scan and remove malware...None found
    Ran CCleaner
    Removed Cookies and Extensions
    Reinstall Firefox.
    This does NOT happen with Internet Explorer.
    It has me stumped.
    Thanks for any ideas!
