Why am I having trouble making any download helper work?

I have a new MacBook Air. I have tried downloading several Download Helpers to download videos from YouTube, but none seem to work. When I downloaded the product "Dowload Helper" I did see an icon on the tool bar. When I would open Firefox I would see it in color momentarily, then it would "ghost". It would never activate or spin on any videos.

stuart7491,
Firefox is released on a posted 6 week schedule, so their is no reason for any add-on developer to be caught by surprise when their add-on stops working or needs to be updated.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar#Future_branch_dates
Central (Nightly), Aurora (aka Developer Edition), Beta, and Release
All "channel" versions are available for anyone that wants to "test" them, to see what is "coming down the road", or to contribute to the development of Firefox.
The "life cycle" of each new version of Firefox is 24 weeks.
6 weeks in the Nightly channel in Alpha 1 development.
6 weeks in the Developer Edition / Aurora channel - Alpha 2.
6 weeks in the Beta channel - "fit and finish" stage. ''(And very rarely a new, smaller feature is added in Beta when it was developed off the normal "channel route" in secret. Has happened just once, iirc, somewhat recently.)''
Then 6 weeks as the latest Release version, before the next Release version comes out.

Why am I having trouble running Adobe Flash Player 11 on my 2011 Macbook Air? I've downloaded and installed it repeatedly; yet when I try to open certain images online or play certain Youtube segments, I get the message, "You must have Adobe Flash 11..."

Why am I having trouble running Adobe Flash Player 11 on my 2011 Macbook Air? I've downloaded and installed it repeatedly; yet when I try to open certain images online or play certain Youtube segments, I get the message, "You must have Adobe Flash 11..." My computer tells me it is installed and running.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 5.
1. If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, sign in to your YouTube account and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
2. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
3. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
4. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
5. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
6. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
7. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Why am i having trouble updating itunes on my windows 7 (64 bit) computer?

Why am I having trouble updating itunes on my windows 7 (64 bit) computer?

Doug
Thanks for the update.
nothing is getting installed, copied or otherwise loaded onto my computer....first the program starts to load, then it asks for my serial number, then it goes out and seems to check the serial number then it says it can't be installed then it erases everything it just spent 10 minutes loading.
In view of the above and your prior descriptions, have you tried alternative installation files?
If you want to give a look to that approach, please download and install the tryout files for Premiere Elements 9 from the following web site and then insert your purchased serial number into them during installation.
With this route, you need to carefully carry out the web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" in order to avoid an Access Denied message.

Back to my questions from post 3
Are you getting any Shared Technologies error message any where in the installation process that is failing?
If you follow the following path, do you find an OOBE Folder?
Local Disk C
Program Files (x86)
Common Files Folder
Adobe
and in the Adobe Folder should be the OOBE Folder which you rename from OOBE to OLDOOBE to disable it.
When you are forced into a roll back for whatever installation has taken place, do you ever see a message about Shared Technologies?
And, whether or not the program installs to any extent, does your computer have the OOBE Folder? If so, then please rename it to disable it before
you try for another 9 install.
Looking forward to your results.
ATR
Add On....Please remind me....since you purchased Premiere Elements 9, have you ever installed and used it successfully on any computer?

[SOLVED] Having trouble making QT apps use GTK theme

Hello everyone, I'm having trouble making QT apps use my GTK theme in openbox.
Some apps seem to work just fine but others don't.
^Such as above, as you can see VLC is working, as is qtconfig, but k9copy and k3b are not.
I've did the suggestions that are listed in the wiki. (http://tinyurl.com/ybhb7yr)
And even rebooted after I did them, still no go.
My .gtkrc-2.0 file simply contains:
gtk-theme-name="Clearlooks_blackblue"
gtk-icon-theme-name="Tango"
Does anyone have any ideas why it's not working with k9copy and k3b/how to fix it?
Thanks.

Yes, but don't they use QT?
And if not, what do they use? lol. And is there anyway to make them use my GTK theme?

Why am I having trouble importing vCards? I follow the Help Center instructions by dragging and dropping, but some don't sync into the cloud. And why can't I drag multiple vCards? I have over 4,000. Please tell me I don't have to do one at a time?

Sometimes downloaded mix tapes come as zip files. Is that your case? if so, double click it to unzip, and then add the contents to your iTunes library.

I am having trouble making TM work with my new iMac.

I'm having trouble making TM work with my new iMac. I have an external drive, Freeagent GoFlex Drive, that is recognized on the desktop and in the drive utility. Time machine just "spins it's wheels" and doesn't seem to transfer any information. I have run repair disk on both drives and repair permissions. Any ideas how I can make this thing work?

Did you format the HD first. It has to be formatted to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). If you're not sure how to do this please read:

I am having trouble transfering any media from my windows 7 pc to my iPad 3. Currently using the latest version of iTunes n my windows pc but still the media won't appear on my devicewhen being transferred..

The window would open and I would get the hourglass cursor suggesting something was happening, but the Apple home page (default from the install) would not load, nor would any other page I tried (google, yahoo, cnn).
Even though it's about a different application, I'd try the following document with that:
iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(Safari uses the same webkit engine to render web pages as iTunes uses to render the Store pages. So an issue that can cause the iTunes Store to blank can also cause a Safari for Windows application on the same PC to produce blank pages.)

Im having trouble making some changes to our webite. Im using DW CC 2014, 8.1 , HP Pavillion pc. Id be happy to pay someone to help.

im trying to make some changes on our website (oilfiltercrushers.com). Im using DW CC 2014, 8.8, HP Pavion pc. The problems include:trying to move an image farther to the left & also to remove too much vertical space, trying to remove "AAAs tht show up on a webpage table even they don't show on the local file that was put, a webpage that I cant see on the website even though it was put & appears in the remote files folder. Id be happy to pay someone to help me fix these problems. Thanx, Paul ([email protected], 4146514636)

Hi Nancy
Thanx for your response and commenting on our homepage. I wasn't aware of the problems you mentioned. However it has ranked on the first page of Google, etc for 20 years, so that's not my concern at this point.
The 2 most immediate things are getting rid of the A"s showing up on the table on oilfiltercrushers/truck_ofc.aspx and on /defaultnew.aspx , (the intended home page when I get it fixed,) I get a server error highlighting line 293
&nsp;
. Im not sure what to do about that...
I hope you can help me with this. If its more convenient, you can call me at 414-651-4636. I'll pay you for your input.
Paul
I look forward to hearing from you.
