Using WMV on a Website Won't Work...

I'm trying to open a video on a website (no, not that kind of video...) and it uses WMV. So I have tried downloading it for Mac and it doesn't work. I also tried Flip4Mac and VLC but nothing is working.
How do I download something to get this video to work on the page?

My computer is Windows, and it uses Windows media player to play those video files (i think wmv means windows media video), so you could try this from Microsoft.

(when I tried to find the page, the website was not working because it is ran by Microsoft)
That should hopefully solve your ploblem!

After safari 7.1.3 upgrade some features and links in websites won't work

I upgraded to safari 7.1.3 for mavericks. I have a macbook pro 13". Everything worked fine before, but after the upgrade some features and links in different websites just wont work. what can I do? Also different pop ups like mackeeper keep coming up, and that didn't happen before.

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the string something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

Particular types of websites won't work

I have a MacBook Air. I have been using it with no troubles for about 3 months. I am using it for work (I run a fabric shop and upload photos of the fabrics for people to buy). I am trying to use websites like www.craftumi.com and www.hand-made.com.au but these sites will not work on this laptop. I have reset safari, emptied cache, deleted cookies, reset my internet settings, firewall on/off, adjust proxy settings, updated software etc - pretty much everything within my knowledge plus the knowledge of a few friends/relatives/co-workers. I am using wifi internet.
No-one has had the answer.
What happens is when I try to load the website it starts to load and then just stops (craftumi), the hand-made site won't load at all. It was fine when I signed up and set up my account but now it won't appear at all. I have tested these sites on several other computers and they work fine. My sister bought the same laptop at the same time and these websites work on hers but not mine.
I NEED these sites to run my business, I need to be able to access them from this laptop, not running around using other people's computers.
Similar sites like etsy and ebay work with no problems. I have contacted the owners of the above websites but they have no ideas either/or have suggested the things I have already tried.
Has anyone any idea what this is? Why my laptop won't access these sites?
Should I take it to be serviced?
Thanks

Thanks for replying.
I've tried clicking links in emails, from Facebook, google and typing in the addresses but nothing works. The page starts to load and gets maybe halfway and then just stops and sits there thinking.
It just seems to be these craft websites - maybe there's some clash between internal programming of the site and something that is just different on my laptop than anyone else's.
Now that I have the Hand-made one working I think I will just give up on the other one.
Thanks for the help!

No Pageload as soon as applying update from FF18.0.2 to FF19.0 and the solution in website won't work

i used FF18.0.2 without any problem till update, it stops loading pages
i can use all my browsers but not firefox
i tried all the options in that help like disabling firewall, changing to IPV6 and that DNS something
none of them worked!
and in FF safe mode, it's the same Server not found error

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Report using two different data sources won't work.

I'm trying to build a report that shows information from a production table and an archive table.
Tables are in different databases, which are defined as their own Data Sources in Publisher.
Two data sets containing the same query but using different Data Sources are defined in the Data Model.
When selecting option 'Concatenated SQL Data Source' the report never completes.
If any of the two Data Sets is selected as the Main Data Set, the report shows information related to that source only.
Any hints on how to make this work would be appreciated.
Thanks.
ccastillo

More details on this issue:
The production database has a synonym pointing to the archive database. I build a query using a UNION ALL statement linking both tables.
For the same set of parameters, this query completes in a couple of minutes outside BI Publisher, but never ends (I cancel after an hour) inside Publisher.
Is there any special considerations for the use of synonyms inside Publisher?

Some websites won't work after install

I installed SL on my iMac and for the most part I'm happy with it. I recently purchased Photoshop CS4 upgrade but had issues with it. SL solved all of those problems.
...but it created a new problem.
I cannot go to certain websites after upgrading to SL. Facebook and Twitter for example but there are several others. It states that it cannot find the server.
I did not install snow on my laptop and I can get to those sites fine on that computer.
A friend of mine purchased snow and just called me to let me know that he's having the exact same issues.
Anyone else have these problems? Do you have a solution??
Thanks

Hey, my brothers computer is doing some of the same things you guys have going on. For him, he cant login to citizens bank or upload photos on facebook. I have tried it with safari, firefox and opera and still the same results. Every other website works fine for him. As for it being the host site, I have 2 machines myself that have 10.6 on it and they have no problems. If I can ask, how old or new is everyones computer. My thought is that is deals with only certain models, mine are a few years old, and his is new. Another person I know upgraded a new IMac, purchased around the same time as my brothers, and when he installed it gave him and error. Now his Mobile me is screwed up, wont sync, doesnt detect iphone and god knows what else. Has anybody figured out a way yet. Besides trying the browsers, I have cleared caches, did new installs of firefox and opera, and still nothing. Maybe this is Apples version of Microsoft 2000.

Every time I try to use the camera feature it won't work

Anytime I try and use the camera feature -- the one built with the phone, through Instagram or Facebook it just closes down that app. Any ideas?

Basic troubleshooting from the Users Guide is reset, restart, restore. Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Using Mail with CaCert certificate won't work

Hello everybody!
I have a problem, I can't resolve right now. I have a CaCert.org certificate for my emails. I importetd it to my keyring, where it shows up and is marked as trusted. So no problem till this point.
Now, when I start Mail and want to write a new mail, I don't get the buttons to sign or to encrypt emails.
Thanks for your help in advance!

Huh. Sascha, with apologies, I think this is a case of wanting to answer the question I wanted to ask, not the question you actually asked.
For signing and encrypting, you need to have imported your personal certificate, and its corresponding private key, into your keychain. If you have done so, it will show up, in the Keychain app under My Certificates and you should be able to verify it as being correctly trusted (by you). This should be in the login keychain.
Once this is confirmed, you should be able to verify that, when writing a new email, the encrypt and sign buttons appear towards the right of the composition window, right above the composition text:
This all happens automatically, provided the "From" address for this account is the same as that recorded in your certificate. This is another point you should double-check.
Finally, note that you can encrypt only to recipients for whom you have a trusted certificate, as recorded in the "Certificates" section of your login keychain.
Now, I would assume there is a problem with the first part: there being your certificate and private key in the keychain, with the appropriate trust. If you can indicate what seems to be mismatched, we can continue the conversation to help drive a resolution.
Good luck!

I did a site in Adobe Muse 4. Now i updated to Muse CC trial and my website won't work.

"This Adobe Muse site file requires a newer version of Adobe Muse. Please update to the latest version."

What does the version number say in the 'About Muse' dialog?

ICal Crashing after startup; iTunes won't work

My problem is twofold:
My iCal calender (desktop) crashes upon opening every time. I reinstalled Tiger (from "not for resale discs" supplied by Apple). It did not fix the crashing; I still can't use iCal. Now, iTunes won't work with this installation of Mac OSX.
I deleted iCal and reinstalled the OS again and I have the same results. Coincidentally, this crash happened after I upgraded to the iPhone 3Gs.
Can anyone help me?

Wireless router model befw11s4 won't work

I just moved into a new place, and got my internet connected today. I am trying to set up the wireless so that i can use my laptop but it won't work. I plugged everything in, turned it off, reset it, waited a bit, but nothing. I think it has to do with configuring ips, but i don't know how. I used to just go to the 192.168.1.1 page to do that, but it will not load, it just times out. What do I do? Please help, thanks

First power cycle computer ...router & modem .... after powering up ...check the Ip address on hardwired computer ... also check the light status on the wireless router ....
If getting Ip - 192.168.1.X ....ping 192.168.1.1 ..... if getting positive replies .... try going online ....
If you are getting request timed out .... disable all firewall on the computer then again try to ping the 192.168.1.1 address ....
After opening the setup page .... reconfigure the wireless router ....

After upgrading to Mavericks, some websites won't load (using wifi)?

Hey guys,
I upgraded my Macbook Pro to Mavericks last December. I had some problems when loading some websites (such as eBay, Society6, etc) while I was at home using my home wifi in Indonesia. It's like, sometimes these websites won't load, but sometimes they do.
I've tried different browsers and it's still the same. I thought, it was just the wifi at my home in Indonesia that's problematic, because at work (using cable), the internet's just fine. But THEN, I am now here in Australia, I don't usually have problems with my aprtment's wifi at all, but now it's doing that thing. Some websites won't load properly or won't load at all. I realized that this is most likely has something to do with my laptop (ie. upgrading to Mavericks. I've never had this problem before), because the wifi works just fine with my smartphone and my iPod.
Has anyone encountered similar problem? How do you fix this?
Thanks so much,
S

Hello sharlegit
Try creating a new network location and test to see if the same thing happens of certain websites not working.
