Video opening on Safari

Hi
I'm using Safari activity window to download youtube videos but when I try to download some mp4 high definition video instead of downloading it open in another tab.
Somebody knows how to solve this? Like disabling quicktime on Safari!
tks

I am having what I believe might be a related problem. I recently discovered that my simple process for downloading YouTube videos no longer works. I was using the activity window and double click method which now does not open the download window and begin the download but only opens another Safari window with only the player window(black with the video in the center). I had to resort to the copy/paste which is really cumbersome. If anyone out there can tell me what I might have done to cause this, I would appreciate the help.

In OSX 10.8.2 with Safari 6.0.2. Many videos will not open in Safari

I am running OSX 10.8.2 with Safari 6.0.2. Many videos will not open on Safari but open on Chrome. I have enabled javascript in Safari Preferences. I get a javascript void message when copying the link of the non-working videos. In one discussion about javascript problems in Mountain Lion a Java Preferences Ap in Utilities was used to fix the problem. I do not have a Java Preferences Ap in Applications\Utilities. I am stuck.

I am having a similar issue, except mine is with a military site. The military sites use java althroughout for downloading files/image. The problem is that it never gives me the notice to enable java for these sites.
I would like to have the ability to manually tell safari to allow java on a particular site so this isn't an issue.
This would solve my issue and allow a way to activate java on sites that don't give you the option to allow it.

U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
Try the following:
Repair permissions & restart.
Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.

Videos in a Safari page start automatically at openning

Since a few weeks, when I open a page in Safari, if there is one or more videos in this page, they all start to run automatilcally. I have to stop each of them to stop the cacophony. It was not like that before. I dont know what I did to have this problem.
How to stop this?
Thank you.

Randomly here is a page :
http://www.cawa.fr/le-groupe-bilderberg-article003895.html
In this page theare are 3 videos. With Safari, all three start running at the opening of the page.
I've tried with Chrome, and there, the videos do not start.
I use Mac OS 10.8.5 and Safari 6.0.5
Thanks.

Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view?

Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view? I have Safari 5.0.6 and QuickTime Player 7.7. Thanks

Hi, Daryl -
If you moved the G4 around to make room for the new machine, that could have jarred the processor loose. It's not unusual for that to happen to an older machine, though it usually happens to RAM or cables, not to the processor.
Years of heating and cooling can loosen a connection and cause some oxidation of the contacts; subsequent moving of the machine, coupled with just a bit of thumping or torquing of the chassis, can cause the connection to fail. Reseating the connection not only makes it secure again, it usually wipes the oxidation off of the contacts.

Quicktime .mov files opens up Safari during video

I have this .mov quicktime file, i can watch it but every few seconds and when it first opens up safari starts up and each time it creats a new window. Is there any way i can stop this?

Steven, I'd suggest you try posting in the QuickTime for Mac forum. You'll be more likely to get help there than you will here in the QuickTime for Windows forum.
Good luck.

Links to MOV files from PDFs don't open in Safari

I have a website that loads PDFs to the user's browser. In the PDF are links to Quicktime MOV files which open floating windows in which users can see videos. These work fine in both Firefox and Windows Internet Explorer on both of my Win 7 64-bit PCs. And they work in Safari on my son-in-law's Mac laptop, which runs OS 10.5.8, although not in Firefox on his laptop. The symptom is that the PDF (or browser) does not seem to even know that the cursor is positioned on a link; that is, the cursor does not change to a pointing finger as it should, and of course clicking on it has no effect.
On my desktop G4 (867 MHz), booted to OS 10.5.8) the links are also not recognized as such (no pointing finger) in both Firefox AND Safari (version 4.0.2, although the download package claimed it was installing 4.0.5). Or rather the icon I downloaded claims to be Firefox, but appears merely to point to a Mozilla web page. So I suppose we don't know about Firefox. What we can say is that Safari 4.0.2 on my Mac G4 PowerPC tower with 10.5.8 booted functions like Firefox on my son-in-law's Mac 10.5.8 laptop - unawareness that the links even exist.
Booting in OS 10.4.11 (which I can do from another hard drive on this G4 Mac), I have different problems. Firefox does load there (version 3.6.8), and goes to the main html page on the website. When links to the PDF files in that html page are clicked on, a choice between Acrobat Reader 7.0 and Acrobat Reader 9 is offered, but only Reader 7 will open - or claim to open: actually, although the title of the page is correct, all I see is a blank page.
The PDFs do open in Safari (version 4.1.3) on this G4 booted to OS 11.4.11, and the links in the PDFs are recognized as such, but when I click on them the little Multimedia Player Finder window comes up, telling me I need to download the correct media player, even though Quicktime 7.6.4 is sitting just below on the dock, and opens the identical MOV files with no problem directly from the hard drive itself (actually a different hard drive, but wait...yes, it also opens fine when the MOV is copied to the hard drive on which the currently booted OS10.4.11 resides).
Okay, so when I click on Get Media Player in that little Multimedia Player Finder window that opens when I try to go to a MOV link, I'm taken to Apple's website, which offers to download Quicktime Player 7.6.9 for Leopard. Drilling down to the appropriate version for Tiger 10.4.11 and downloading that, I find it knows it should install that to the same hard disk on which 10.4.11 resides, forsaking all others. Good. But when I install that and Restart, it's the same story as before: the PDFs load from the website into Safari, but when I click on one of the links in those PDFs to a MOV file I get the same Multimedia Player Finder window saying the media requires an additional player.
Can anyone shed any light on these problems?
Thanks in advance for your help.

>With Perian you just goto System Preferences>Other Row, right click or Control+click on Perian, choose Remove Perian Pref Pane.
That sounds like Perian is NOT one of those you can just delete. How does one know which is which?
>But Perian would only help if you want to display the movie in the Browsers.
In fact, due to issues of publisher's permission regarding about half the video clips, for the present I would prefer the user NOT to be able to download them, but only to be able to open them in the browser, or even better, in a floating window that's a child of the browser, as I specified to Acrobat, and as in fact happens on my Win 7 PCs.
>Do you need PDFs to be downloaded, or could you do this in HTML and have the Movie links right on the site?
I'd rather they NOT be downloaded, at least in the sense of winding up in the Mac's Download folder and opening in a separate window. I want them to open directly in the browser window, as the do in my Win 7. (MOre on this below.)
As to HTML instead of a PDF, what I need is to be able to provide commentary about each video clip, which HTML could do just fine, and I could get free of the VERY troublesome problem that any time I make more than a trivial change to the text, I must re-link every stinking one of the MOVs in a time-consuming process. So far, however, all of my attempts to show video via the <OBJECT> or <EMBED> tags have either failed, or opened the clip directly in the page, not in a floating window as I prefer. I believe there's a new <VIDEO> (or is it <MEDIA>?) tag in HTML 5 I may look into.
> Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible... /private/var/run/StartupItems; /Library/StartupItems;
/System/Library/StartupItems; /System/Library/LaunchDaemons; /Library/LaunchDaemons
Thanks much for this tip. Indeed Protools itself is in the System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items folder, and I'll be removing it from there, but I'll still have the 'In use by another application' problem when I load Protools as a conscious choice. There's a bunch of Digidesign (a.k.a. Protools) stuff in /Library/StartupItems, but ... (I was about to say I would investigate further because Protools is notorious for placing files all over the place and not have a clean uninstall, but I just realized these are StartupItems - meaning, I suppose, *boot-up* items, as opposed to any time one starts up Protools? If only boot-up, there should be no harm in deleting them.
>I don't think that is any part of the problem.
Thank goodness! Just guessing: can I assume that (in principle, at least) any app from a prior OS Applications folder should run in a later OS, but generally not vice versa? That's the default assumption in Windows. However, I know of at least one app I have that was written for OS 9 and they announce does not run in higher OS's, though to be honest I've never tried it.
>The problem seems to be that the ones that do not display the links, or display the links but won't play it, are looking for the Movie file in the Download folder. No expert, but I kind of think it's some MS "stanrd" involved, which Apple trys to keep pace with, but...
I'm convinced you have the right answer here - except perhaps for the Microsoft part, because the 'Cannot play media because file not found' problem also occurs in Foxfire on my two XP PCs (although not in Internet Explorer where everything works properly on those two XP PCs). The evidence that you're right? I noticed an instance - TenFourFox when booted in 10.4, I believe - where not only the links to the MOV clips have that problem, but also links from within one PDF to another PDF, which generally *were* working in most scenarios tested so far when the MOV clips were not. For what it's worth, the links to the other PDFs specify another folder on the server, while those to the MOV files specify no folder at all since they're all in the same folder as the PDF that links to them. Which is why the Mac assumes they must be in the Download folder. Depending on the situation, apparently, in some circumstances if you do specify a folder Mac figures it must be on the server if not found locally.
In general, the problem seems to have a lot to do with browser configuration issues, including security, but I don't know what. Perhaps related, perhaps not: Every time I try to load a PDF in TenFourFox it asks me what app to open it with and I have to specify Acrobat Reader. I have found no way to load that as a plug-in (and even if I did, how to tell TenFourFox it should use it). The Get Add-on dialog lets you hunt for plug-ins but neither Acrobat Reader nor Quicktime show up when you ask for them in the Search box.
But now... guess what?
Today, suddenly, when I access the site with Safari while booted in 10.5.8, EVERYTHING IS WORKING! All the clips open, and they open in floating windows just like I want. This, remember, is the situation in which the links were not even recognized earlier. I have no idea which if any of the changes we've discussed could have brought this about. I've not even been able to find out how to tell Safari it should be using Acrobat Reader and Quicktime. But somehow, it is! (I'm not making this up, nor, despite my admission of memory lapses on occasion, is this a case of a memory lapse. I described this situation early in my initial post, when I had just verified it.)

My EKM Powershot Site won't open in Safari

I have an iMac. It is running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. I have an internet website with EKM Powershop. It worked fine until a few weeks ago. Then, at some times during the day it said I couldn't log in because of a problem with cookies but at other times it was ok. Now I get the same message all the time and can't log in at all. If I use Chrome it is ok but it is easier for my work if I have it open on both Safari and Chrome. I haven't changed anything with my cookies and that doesn't seem to actually be the problem. Can anyone help?

OS X: Link shouldn't open in Safari (e.g. opera ist my standard browser)

Hi,
I use Snow Leopard. I've got Opera as standard browser. If I click at an http link in Acrobat Reader, it opens in Safari. Why? Every other programm (e.g. Thunderbird) opens the links in my standard browser. Is there a hidden way to change that? I think, Acrobat Reader should rely on the standard OS setting up,
best regards,
darth

Can you describe what happens in your browsers when
you do try to load a movie?
In both, there is a black box where the video should be. Sometimes it will say "loading" but it never does.

An ad for cnn floats at the top of every web page I open in safari and won't go away

For some reason an ad for the CNN ios app is permanently stuck at the top of all web pages I open in safari. There is an x for closing the ad, but clicking the x does nothing. The ad also covers part of webpages which is extra annoying and occasionally I am pulled to the App Store for no reason.

I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.

Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.

How can I get a pdf. to open in Safari, all i'm getting is a new window with a black, blank page, instead of the pdf., and I don't want to save the file to the desktop, Safari didn't use to do that, and I don't have Adobe in the internet plug in folder.

Hi
Please take a look to this thread Re: Can I refresh the browser rather than open a new tab?

Mail opens two Safari windows when I click on a link in email

When I click on a link in Mail, it opens in Safari -- that's the way I have it setup. Yet, the problem is that it opens two windows in Safari, one empty and one with the content of the link.
This is the second problem I have with Mail. The second one was posted to this discussion but it was not resolved. I repeat here the text of the problem:
I've been having a problem with mail for a while, when sending attached JPEGs from my Mac using Mail or Entourage. The photos are split -- say a 140 kb file will show up in my two other computers (both Windows PCs) as two files, one 65 kb and the other 75 kb, for example.
Yet, when I click on Mail's (in my Mac) sent folder and click on the particular sent email, it shows a full blown 140 kb attachment, not split.
Several weeks ago, my Mac Address book got cranky and for some reason it would repeat the name of an addressee. I finally deleted the name of that addressee and created a new entry and it seemed to work, so it did not split JPEGs -- or at least I thought that was the case.
Now it is back splitting the JPEGs but this time, the addressee's name is well formatted -- no repeats within the entries in the card in Address Book.
When I mail something from my Windows PCs and open it in my Mac, the file is complete.
What could be causing this split?

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.<br /><br />

Mail hyperlinks open in safari, but screen is not automatically moving from mail to safari, only manually

Hello,
i'm facing already for some time an issue that i can get solved unfortunately.
After OS update towards mountian lion (i believe, but not sure), a hyperlink in an email is opened in Safari, but my screen is not automatically swapping towards safari from mail. Not if i'm working on the desktop, nor working in full screen mode. I need to move manually to the other screen, to see the webpage opening.
In the past it was working, but I can't find the settings to get this solved. Today I've update to Yosemite, and it didn't solve this for me.
Who can help me? It is really appreciated
thanks
Ruighe
