Videos and animations won't load.

I have an R61. Nothing happens when I click on the "play" arrow on videos, either on the youtube site or embedded in web pages. And when I open a news website with an embedded video, there's just a blank space where the video should be. Also animations won't load (e.g Scrabble on Facebook) and features like scrolling through the numbered top news images on the Daily Beast website don't work. Regular links work fine, but anything that seems to involve videos or animations is just dead. I ran all of the diagnostic tests through the ThinkVantage toolbox, and apparently everything is working fine... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!

Well I uninstalled and then reinstalled (with some difficulty) my flash player, and I finally figured out that there was something in my firewall settings that must have been blocking it. Turned off my firewall and it was fine. Turned my firewall back on and it still seems to be working, so it must have been some some of temporary glitch. Thanks for the help!

  • Down loaded a new video and it won't load onto the video ipod

    I downloaded an episode of Baby Einsteins for my son to watch on the video ipod. iTunes gives the message "Pirates Treasure" was not copied onto the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod. What more can I do. I have a new 12" powerbook, the newest video iPod with plenty of space, and all of the latest software updates! It's frusturating that service for this type of problem is so hard to get. Can anyone help me?

    d Pacifist to reinstall both the Safari
    application and the WebKit framework
    was that before the 10.4.6 combo was applied?
    Nope, I tried the Pacifist route after applying the combo update.
    It does sound as if webkit is busted at the moment.
    What version of osx is on your install disks?
    Not sure, I'll have to check them.
    I'd like to avoid a archive & install, but I'm beginning to think it's my only remaining option.

    Since the ios7 update I go to use my camera and switch to video and it won't switch ! ..why is this ? HELP

    Thanks stedman1 for continuing to push this interface change news...   I must have taken 100 photos last night (of my shoes) trying to switch to video (unsuccessfully).   Very frustrating.
    OTOH, like many Apple interface innovations, it is simple to learn and easy to remember.  
    Honestly, that's all we can ask for, there really ain't no intuitive.

    It sounds like you actually have a 2G iPod touch which can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1.  See this article to help you identify what model and generation your iPod Touch is.

    If possible you need to upgrade OS X. However, what you can upgrade to is dependent on what your Mac hardware and configuration is which you have not provided in your profile.

  • Video and animation Skips 10% of video/animation duration button

    Hello,
    Is it possible to create a button to skip 10% of video and animation duration? I can easily make it work on just the video but I need the animation scroll bar to follow on where I skip. Below is the playback animation I did:
    The play button and the blue with orange bar syncs nicely but I can't sync the skip buttons to work with the video and the bar animation. Basically it's a video player that can do a frame-by-frame for the animation video above to show frame-by-frame when you start drawing. I'd like to have the bar follow the skip buttons on where the video timeline is.
    I'm no code expert but knows how to use Edge Animate, the basic functions.
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    I ve tried to re-create a project with the issue... but it is working all right.
    The timeline animation is not stopping my video....
    If I reproduce the issue I came back to the forum.
    thank you

    After iOS7 upgrade, iTunes only gives blank screens.  And Netflix won't load.  Any idea on what to do?

    Yep. I did some more poking around and found that one. Downloaded it and tried to run it and got more errors. Did some more searching and found a fix for the installer on Vista. Ran the fix and tried the ipod software again. It got further, but then hung up again. I'm still trying to figure this all out. Anyone got any answers it'd be much appreciated.

  • Videos on website won't load/play immediately

    hello everyone,
    i've been trying to find an answer for a week now but without much luck.
    using adobe flash catalyst, i recently created a website with 20 uploaded videos (FLV format; ranging from 2mb ~ 40mb each) and when you click onto any one of them, they will load and play. but here's the problem - they won't play immediately (won't load and play at the same time, WHILE being downloaded in the background - unlike youtube), and most of the time when you click on a video, you'll have to wait (the loading bar won't even start downloading until a good 20-30 seconds after clicking play) while some videos load and play immediately.
    my question is, what do i need to do so my videos will load/play almost immediately after clicking play, while simutaneously being downloaded in the background? is there a way to preload my videos?
    i understand i'll need flash builder to code all this?
    i'm new to making websites and i would appreciate all the help given.
    kenny

    Drat! You might try looking through the Flash Builder forums to see if they might have a video playback tips. There might some property that Flash Catalyst is not exposing or something in the app itself that needs to be changed.
    If you have Flash Professional, you could try creating a simple FLV player using it and see what the performance is like from the server.

  • My iPhone 5c won't send iMessages, snapchats, email from the Mail app, and it won't load YouTube. Other internet apps like Pandora and Instagram work fine though. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

    A couple days ago I first noticed the problem when snapchats would appear on my lock screen but when I opened the app I kept getting the error message that the app was not able to refresh my story. Then the next day I was no longer able to send iMessages, they wouldn't go through and would only reach the second party when I sent them as text messages. Also, YouTube won't load and Mail won't send or receive email. I've already tried restarting my phone but there was no change. At first I thought my network connection was the problem but Instagram, Safari, Vine and Pandora all work perfectly. Any suggestions?

    Try this procedure to be sure of a proper restart.
    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
    I would also try: Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

  • How to trigger based play a text, video and animated symbol

    Hello
    I have an animated text followed by a video followed by animated symbol. I have a next button with the following commands
    sym.getSymbol("slide").play();
    sym.play();
    The problem:
    I can go next from the text to the video but have to wait till the video finishes playing then the symbol comes in automatically. if i click next while the video is playing. The animation progresses in the symbol and it misses the starting animation.
    What i want is while the video is playing and i click next the video stops and the slide starts to play.
    Project file here: https://www.mediafire.com/?0zv067hgt6g0l7x
    Can anyone help ?
    Thanks

    Hi
    I was facing another issue.
    As you can see in the test project. There is a video. It has a simple opacity at the end. When i enable controls for the video and pause and play in the browser to see specific parts. but what happens is that the video fades out when the playhead reaches that point and other slides fade in.
    What i want to do is when the pause button is pressed in the video, the playhead stops and only when the video has ended or the next button clicked, the next slide appears.
    Can you please tell me how to achieve this ?
    Thanks

  • Firefox slow to start and websites won't load?

    Setup: Windows Vista. Firefox 4.0.1. McAfee Total Protection 2011. Wireless home network.
    As of yesterday everything worked well. Tonight I am having problems 1) connecting to the internet - I have to reconnect to my router before it accesses the internet 2) Firefox either doesn't start or is very slow 3) when it does finally slow, all the websites eventually time out and won't load.
    Last night I extended my McAfee - didn't have to d/l or install anything and earlier today my computer did some kind of update. The only way I can get any websites to open is to shut off the firewall in McAfee, then things seem to work fine but I don't want to leave it off for obvious reasons. Oh and I did set up a new Windows user profile for my kids but I don't see how that would really affect anything.
    Is there some kind of setting I need to change? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
