Web videos won't run/load... Help please?

So today I went on to watch a YouTube video, and no video actually showed up... Like it loaded the whole page but left out the little video box where the video usually plays. It did the same thing again when I tried to watch a video on Yahoo. Any ideas what the problem is?

HI,
If you have ClickToFlash installed, that's probably the problem. Go to ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins and move the *ClickToFlash webplugin* to the Trash. If not...
Try uninstalling your current copy of the Flash Player plugin, reinstall new, then repair permissions.
Uninstall Flash
Install the most recent version of Flash here.
Now repair permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Safari 5.03 I can not get ANY web pages except APPLE to load Help please

    Hello, I just downloaded thru software update Safari 5.03. I am using SL for OS on Macbook Pro.
    Now literally when trying to go to ANY web page at all I get a bunch of " little squared letter A's on the entire web page.

    please help anyone
    thanks
    scott

    First of all thank you for the reply,
    1. I deselected: enable plug-ins
    Quit Safari- then relaunch-- DID NOT work, I still have all "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" IN BOXES ON EVERY WEB SITE I TRY TO VISIT.
    BUT AGAIN THE APPLE WEB SITE I AM ABLE TO TYPE YOU THIS MESSAGE. ONLY APPLE SITE WORKS
    2. Also tried to turn off any extensions ( i did not have any but turned off-- DID NOT work
    3. I did try to troubleshoot the safari plist file.
    I looked at some of your prior posts and tried those plist attempts. I tried to move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the preferences--AGAIN THIS DID NOTHING.
    BUT......I tried this but not total solution. I went on my other mac--I opened Safari ( i think 4.03) but again another mac, I then went to Firefox web site and I COPY AND PASTED THE ACTUAL WEB SITE IN AND PUT IT ON A SMALL FLASH DRIVE--THEN COPY AND PASTED IT INTO THE ADDRESS WINDOW OF SAFARI 5.03, AND HIT RETURN-- IT THEN WENT TO THE FIREFOX WEBSITE AND IT VIEWED IT PROPERLY, SO I DOWNLOADED FIREFOX AND TRIED TO RUN FIREFOX.
    AND LOW AND BEHOLD FIREFOX WORKS.
    BUT I STILL CANT GET SAFARI TO WORK
    again, i still get ON EVERY SITE USING SAFARI 5.03 " AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" capital "A"s in little boxes on every web site. Almost like some code is not being read correctly by Safari?
    please advise some more if you can
    thanks

    p.s I used caps so you know what i tried, so i am not yelling, sorry for the caps.

  • Video won't run. telling me to update flash player. click on update for mac won't load?

    video won't run, telling me to update flash player, click on update for mac won't update. do i need to load flash player and is it ok for mac?

    Yes, it's fine for your Mac ...
    Most sites such as YouTube require the Flash plugin.
    Flash isn't a player per se, but a plugin.
    Sometimes uninstalling the current plugin then reinstalling new can help.
    Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Make sure and uninstall the old plugin first then restart your Mac.
    If you use Safari to view videos, from the Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try a video.

  • Web page videos won't run

    I have a brand new 27" iMac.  When I try to run videos from the Yahoo web page or You Tube, nothing happens.  Video won't run.  However, when I go to the Apple web page, I can run the Apple videos without any problems.

    Chances are very good it's an Adobe Flash issue. Apple no longer ships new computers with Flash on it, the solution is easy though navigate to:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/  then download it and install.
    BTW you also have 90 days of free AppleCare service,  you can call them and they will coach you through any other issues you're running into. You can find the phone number in your manual.

  • I uninstalled older version of Itunes because for some reason it wouldn't start. I installed new version 10.7 for 64 bit (windows 7) and it WONT RUN either. help please

    I couldn't get my 10.6 version of Itunes to open, so I uninstalled it. Installed newer version 10.7 for 64 bit (windows 7) and it won't run either. Please help?

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • YouTube videos won't run

    Suddenly, YouTube videos won't run. Instead of the video you see "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player". Followed the link and installed the upgrade but problem persists. Starting with add-ons disabled doesn't help. ???

    Make sure that your firewall isn't blocking the plugin-container process.

  • Running itunes 10.6.1.7. did reorg of lib to new struct. reorg left all video podcasts in old folder. I cannot view video podcasts itunes or download. help please.

    I just installed itunes 10.6.1.7. on a new PC connected an external hard drive containing my itunes library and pointed to my library on an external hard drive.
    I also did reorganization of my library structure via "organize library" menu option. The reorg left all video podcasts in the old podcast folder and will not let me copy them to the new podcast folder.
    From the itunes store I cannot select a new video podcast and download and view it in itunes. The podcast will show up but the file or episode has a "GET" button next to it and never shows it as available to view in itunes. I have attempted to download many time with no success.
    I have podcasts that are all video podcasts and some that are mixed audio podcasts and video podcasts. in both cases the video podcasts remained in the original folder location.
    The video podcasts are not in movies or in tv shows. All music is present and accounted for that I know.
    How can I restore all video podcasts previously downloaded and view them on itunes or an ipod?
    Can I create a video podcast option in itunes?
    Please help.

    Issue solved - It turns out that the QuickTime version on my PC was 6.5 and I needed to update to version 7.6 or higher to allow videos to play in iTunes. I updated to QuickTime version 7.7 and then added the old podcast folder to iTunes while in podcasts. This found all video podcast content and then the auto reorg moved all folders to the new podcast directory. For the videos I manually moved earlier, I had to move (not copy) them back to the old directory or folder then add that old folder and they were now in the right directory and viewable in iTunes.

  • Videos won't run on certain sites

    Why won't videos run on the O'Reilly Factor web site but will on the FoxNews site. Same with On the Record? I have uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player several times. Deleted cookies and cache several times. FireFox won't run them.  The Guest User used to run them but now won't. YouTube works great.

    Ok, point given on the ad block plus, however all three systems have ad blockers installed.
    Ad Block Plus (Firefox Only)
    and Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 (Firefox & IE9)
    both however were disabled on the two computers that are affected, to resolve the issue, I'll re-examine differences between the working and non-working computers.
    The Kaspersky addon that blocks it hasn't worked/been updated to work with firefox 10/11
    The computer that isn't affected has ad block plus enabled. and kaspersky is again disabled due to incompatability
    All computers have 11.1.102.55+ installed

  • Mpg video won't run now

    I have an mpg video embedded into one of the pages on my web site.  I recently upgraded to windows 7 64 bit, and to Director 11.5.9.  The video now doesn't load or run.  Is there something special I need to do in either Win7 64, or in Dir. 11.5.9 to correct that?
    Thanks.
    Dewey

    Thanks for the response, ginod.  I decided to put the video on YouTube and just link to it from my site.  Your suggestion is a good one, though.  It would work with mp4.

  • Just downloaded new IOS 8.2 on MacBook Pro shutdown ready to restart & it won't reboot up HELP PLEASE...???

    Hi Ive just downloaded the new IOS 8.2 on my MacBook Pro, it tells you to shutdown now, to finish installing - which Ive done. Went to boot it up again and all it dose is show me the apple sign and lots of black letters numbers and the odd word something about the 64bit is missing - Im doing my Criminology Honours Degree & doing a PowerPoint lecture - or should I say was!!!! And now my macbook won't turn on.... HELP PLEASE??????

    use a torx screwdriver and open the back casing, from there you can proceed to get your hard drive out. then you can retrieve the data using a universal hard drive to usb adapter (you can find them cheap on amazon).
    and if you are desperate to get it to turn on you can use the power on pads: from there we can see what is going on. (this is NOT a technique for every day use)

  • Certain video won't run.

    The videos that won't run are on the top portion of the msn.com home page. (See screen shot).
    The dotted circle continues to run and run and run....., but the video doesn't play.  The other videos on the page run well. I have tried to run them on Lion (10.7.3) and Snow Leopard (10.6.8), but they won't run on either. I have tried to run on both Firefox 11.0 and Safari 5.1.5. Nothing! I have the latest Flash Player, Silverlight, and Quicktime Player installed. These videos DO run on my Windows Vista laptop, so the problem lies somewhere on my Mac Pro. Could it have anything to do with the graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB)?
    Does anyone know where the problem lies, and of any fix?
    Thanks.

    I'm sorry. I hope I don't sound too clueless, but when you say "account," to what are you referring? Setting up a  new user account? I am running as the Admin. with root access, and the only user on this machine.
    I deleted the FlashPlayer .plist file, but when I then tried to view the videos, the problem was still there.
    Is there any way to identify a corrupted file? I've also repaired the the permissions on both drives, but that wasn't the answer either. Would a corrupted file be found and repaired if I ran disk utility Repair Disk? Is there an app. that can locate and repair a corrupted file?
    As you can see, I'm blindly flailing around just trying to locate the problem. I appreciate your brainstorming this with me.

  • Pple Application Suport isrequired to run itunes helper.Please uninstall itunes then installagain.  Error 2  Please help

    Apple Application Suport was not found.
    Apple Application Support is required to run itunesHelper.
    Please uninstall itunes then install again.
    Error2         Please help i did everything and still have the same problem

    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
