Why does Safari say "Blocked Plug-in" when I want a video?

Why does Safari say "Blocked Plug-in" when I want a video?

When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.

  • Tried to install Adobe Flash Player - says old version is outdated. Why does it say blocked plug in?

    Tried to install Adobe Flash player update. Site says blocked plug- in ---so did the update work?

    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:

  • Why does Safari still accept cookies, even when I put Block Cookies "Always"

    Why does Safari still accept cookies, even when I put Block Cookies "Always",? There are always a list of every website with cookies. Is that just a record of what could've been accepted or its a bogus feature that still accepts regardless of what feature is on?

    Apple has rolled over users since OS X 10.6.8 when this issue first appeared.
    If you want a browser that actually CARES about it's users, then install Firefox, it's the only one that does.

  • Why does Safari quit (on my Mac) when opening PDF?

    I'm on a Mac OSX 10.5.8 on Safari. Each time I first want to open a PDF, my Safari crashes. The note says, "Problem caused by Acrobat plug-in". After relaunching Safari I can open PDF files. Help?

    Hey thanks for responding so quickly! I've downloaded AppDelete
    Forgive my ignorance - what is Reader X app and how can I find it?

    Subject: Adobe Reader Why does Safari quit (on my Mac) when opening PDF?
    One of the things I have loved about Macs since switching in 2003 is:
    They tell you what went wrong when something does.
    The Acrobat plugin is corrupted.
    Solution:
    Download a trial of AppDelete. Install it and open it.
    Drag the Reader X app to the window.
    Delete everything it finds associated with Reader X and empty the trash. Re-download Reader X and re-install it.
    It will install new support and preference files and plugins. and things should go more smoothly.

  • Why do I see "Blocked Plug-Ins" when I try to play a video - this is generally on the BBC News website.  I haven't tried elsewhere.

    Why do I see "Blocked Plug-Ins" when I try to play a video - this is generally on the BBC News website.  I haven't tried elsewhere.
    I have an old Mac 2009.

    Hello alymarvellous,
    Take a look at the article linked below, it provides information about the plug-in alert that you’re seeing when browsing specific websites on your iMac.
    Safari 8 (Yosemite): Safari troubleshooting
    Problems with plug-ins
    If a webpage has trouble showing plug-in content such as video, you may see a placeholder with a button that describes a plug-in problem. For example, the plug-in might be old, missing, or blocked.
    Try clicking the placeholder button to resolve the problem.
    For more information, see If a plug-in is missing and If a website has plug-in content.
    Cheers,
    -Jason

  • WHY DOES IT SAY BATTERY NOT CHARGING WHEN I TRY TO CHARGE MY IPAD??

    WHY DOES IT SAY BATTERY NOT CHARGING WHEN I TRY TO CHARGE MY IPAD ???

    How are you trying to charge it, via a computer or the wall plug ? If a computer, then a lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
    If the wall charger then have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If that doesn't work then have you tried a different charger and/or cable ? Do you know anybody else with an iPad so that you can try their charger and cable and they can try yours ?
    And for info typing in capitals is considered SHOUTING.

  • Why does safari freeze on Facebook whenever I scroll to a video? This only happens in Facebook and only when I scroll to a video.

    Why does safari freeze on Facebook whenever I scroll to a video? This only happens in Facebook and only when I scroll to a video.

    Hello,
    Most videos on the internet are played using the Adobe Flash plugin.
    Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash update and/or a malfunctioning browser plugin such as Real Player.
    In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
    * [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
    * [[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
    * [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]

  • Why does it say "unsupported language/platform" when I try to download Adobe Standard? I have the latest updates of IE and Google Chrome and have tried both.

    Why does it say "unsupported language/platform" when I try to download Acrobat Standard? I have the latest updates of IE and Google Chrome and have tired both.

    The message doesn't mention IE or Chrome - it mentions language/platform.
    So...what is the language of your system?
    And what is your platform - by which we mean for example Windows Vista or Mac OS Lion.

  • HT3702 Why does it say invalid security code when I'm prompted to sign in?

    Why does it say invalid security code when I'm prompted to sign in. I have intered my security code from my credit card several times. It will not allow me to use the app store, even for free purchases.

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

  • Why does it say Apple ID disabled when I try to update an app

    Why does it say my Apple ID is disabled when I try to update an app.? My ID works for everything else. Also, I thought with the new iOS update that apps are supposed to update themselves but mine haven't.

    On your Mac/PC open iTunes (make sure it is updated). On the tabs on the left click on "iTunes Store". This will change the window on the right to the iTunes store. The top right corner should have your Apple ID or Sign In written. If there is an Apple ID written click on it and Sign Out. The corner should then change to "Sign In".
    Now click on Sign In and sign in with the wrong/incorrect Apple ID that you no longer wish to use or update from.
    Once logged in, click on the down arrow that shows when you move the pointer on the top right corner where it should now show the apple id, and select Account.
    The page that opens up should have a section called "iTunes in the Cloud" with a tab on the side saying "Manage Devices".
    Click on Manage Devices. Its should list your iPhone or iPad that you no longer wish to use with this Apple ID. And click Remove.
    Once its confirmed click "Done" and from the top right corner select Sign Out.

  • Why does safari reload page from beginning when going back in history

    This behavior in safari is driving me nuts, i'm using mountain lion 10.8.1 and everytime i swipe two fingers to the left after having left a page to checksomething, safari goes back to the page and starts me in a different place (usually very beginning) than where i was when i navigated away from the page.  i mean what the ****? this gets very infuriating pretty quickly, especially on really long pages that i now have to navigate to the same section i was when i navigated away from the page.
    example, i was reading about the samsung apple verdict on cnet, and i was reading i dont know, the 30th or so comment in:
    http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57500273-37/apple-v-samsung-the-infringing-dev ice-scorecard/
    I then navigated away from the page to look for a tangent the comments made me think of, and when i swiped two fingers to the left, low and behold, i am now at the top of the page and have to figure out what comment i was up to.. what.. the.. heck man?? am i doing something wrong? is there a way to 'fix' this behavior?
    I remember on snow leopard i could go back and forth between pages w/o the page having to reload/leave me at the top..
    another example is newegg.com, i was looking at monitors and playing with the differnet choices when clicking 'more choices':
    http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=20&name=LCD-Monitors
    scroll down to where it says options on the left pane, the page displays drop downs, i select a few, click on Search, and when i two-finger swipe to the left to get back, the drop downs are now gone!! that was the "last state" of the page, so why does the page have to get entirely reloaded?? It SHOULD still be in my cache and viewable in the exact same way as when i left the page..
    someone please help!

    Jesus H Christ this is still driving me up the wall, i can't believe everyone is just accepting this.  Isn't there a way to fix this?  Can we at least have an option to turn this OFF?? Reloading a page everytime i go back is such a waste of time/bandwidth/my nerves when i am in the middle of a page
