Why don't Yahoo embedded videos work

videos from youtube, hulu, netflix, etc. work but not yahoo embedded ones. I have the latest version of firefox and adobe flashplayer on windows 7 64 bit. i have tried installing/uninstalling flashplayer and firefox. i also tried loading it in safe mode but it does not work.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

    why dont the music & music videos work the same as on iPhone?

    Gettingonmynerves, in my honest opinion, you will be gettingabsolutelynowhere in your attemp to edit AVCHD files natively with PE using a Laptop.
    Your system is seriously underpowered for the task at hand.
    Most folks would recommend at least a Quad Core desktop, tuned for perfomance.
    What you might try is to convert the AVCHD to traditional HDV via this link:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/390605?tstart=0
    This may buy you some relief, but even with the convert, I think it will still be a challenge to edit these formats on a laptop.
    You could also try to down convert the video via the Camera, if that feature is available. I don't have or use a High Def Camera at this time so I can't help much with the Camera possibilities.
    Again it's not an issue with the laptop itself, it probably works great for it's intended use, unfortunately it is not up to the task, performance wise, for editing the ACVHD or High Def formats with PE...
    Good Luck...

  • Embedding video, works on my computers but not theirs, why?

    I have made a flyer that has an embedded video clip using Acrobat Pro 9 Extended.  It opens and plays ok on Professional Extended and Reader on one computer, also opens ok on Professional (non extended) and Reader on another computer.  I emailed the file to my client and he only has Reader.  He tried it on his computer and some other computers with Reader and said he gets an error (see below) which comes up when he opens it and doesnt even show the PDF at all.  He said he upgraded his Readers to the current version and still gets the error.  What else could be causing this?

  • Why won't YouTube embedded video play from PowerPoint?

    I have followed the normal process to embed video in PowerPoint 2010 (32 bit), and playback worked without issues a couple of months ago.  Now it does not.  I have completed all of the troubleshooting tips, and reinstalled latest FlashPlayer 32-bit, etc.  When I go to play the embedded video in PPT, the following message appears:
    "To play the selected item, you must install a later version of the Adobe Flash Player. To download the Adobe Flash Player, go to the Adobe website."
    There does not appear to be any settings changed in browser (IE / Chrome), Windows Media Player, or PowerPoint.
    Need a solution.

    I went back to the embedded video code from YouTube, captured it and pasted it into the "insert video from Web site" and then deleted both "version=3" instances in the code:
    <object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/od8cUvPyvsg?hl=en_US&version=3&amp;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/od8cUvPyvsg?hl=en_US&version=3&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
    That seemed to do the trick! 
    Many thanks for that help.  Not sure what caused prior embedded videos to no longer play - that still is baffling, because I hadn't done anything with the code until today.
    Gracias!

  • Why won't my embedded videos play after I reopen powerpoint after saving

    I have just bought a new MacbookAir(Tuesday)
    I do a lot of powerpoint presentations for work and have now compiled one on my Macbook.
    However when I embed the videos into the presentation they are fine while the presentation is ongoing.
    As soon as I shut it or save it, once I reopen it, it does not play the videos at all. The screenshot is there but no videos.
    The videos are MP4 format downloaded from YouTube.
    The same format and videos worked with my old PC
    So just wondered if anyone knows what I am doing wrong?
    Many thanks

    Use the Apple ID support -> http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/ - click through the contact information and select the iTunes, etc., hot button. You can have Apple call you or email them.

  • Embedded video works vertical orientation but not horizontal

    Consistently having problems getting my horizontal orientation to play video.
    Works in my vertical format, I adjust the same layout to fit in horizontal and the button
    no longer works. Is there something Im missing.
    Ive deleted the button and the video and started over and it still doesn't work.
    Any suggestions??

    I'm having something similar. I use a flv player, so I know
    the FLV works.
    I've seen or rather captured FLV's from youtube. and
    converted them to useful stuff that I didn't need a FLV player for.
    Thing is why do the FLV's play on youtube, but not on my
    machine without a stand alone flv player ?
    What I have is a 16 meg avi/wmv that I can trim to a 2 meg
    FLV. That's what I want to put on my web site, and have it play.
    What do I need to accomplish this ? I've not done anything
    with FLV before.

  • Why are colors of embedded videos opened with acrobat different to original files?

    Hello,
    I generated a videoclip in Premiere CC in different formates ( mp4, mov; flv.... ) and embedded it in an Indesign document. From there I generated an interactive PDF. Opening the file in Acrobat, the colors of the video are different as in a videoplayer like quicktime. Opening the pdf in a browser like safari, the colors are correct. Alternative I embedded the video with acobat pro but the result was the same like before. What is the reason for this problem? Do I have to mange some special colorsetting in the video or are there some presettings to be done in Acrobat?

    If you open System Preferences / Displays / Color can
    you change the color profile to others in the list?
    Or, do you get a "beep" and no change?
    I can change the color profile.

  • Why won't my music videos work on my ipod?

    After downloading the new itunes 7, I found that my music videos and video podcasts (downloaded from the itunes store) were erased from my ipod and will no longer transfer to the ipod. I keep getting a message saying it can't download to my ipod but, why? I've had no problems before. Is there a solution to this problem?

    I, too, am having problems with iTunes 7 and videos. I got the "cannot be read from or written to message". So I restarted the computer, reset the iPod and repaired permissions, then I got this message. "Some of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to the iPod "Video iPod" because they cannot be played on this iPod." All these movies and TV shows worked perfectly well yesterday, but now iTunes removed them all from my iPod and will not sync them back. I have tried restoring the iPod software, and resetting the iPod but that did not fix the problem. Any ideas?

  • Why don't pages and keynote work since mountain lion was reinstalled?

    I just had Mountain Lion reinstalled to fix a problem with reading DVD's. That problem was fixed but now I can't use Pages or Keynote. When I try to open them I get a message saying "files that need iwork are missing" and it says to use the iwork installer to reinstall iwork. So I downloaded and installed iwork 9.2, but pages, numbers and keynote still don't work. Help! I need my documents for work!

    Plus when I tried downloading updates to pages and keynote from the Apple support site, I got a message saying they couldn't be installed because they were from an unidentified developer, not approved by Apple. Huh?

  • Why don't standard XPath functions work in XSLT?

    I'm having a lot of trouble trying to do some simple string processing in XSLT. What I would like to do is make selection using the standard xpath functions defined by the w3c. I'm using this as my cheat sheet:
    http://w3schools.com/xpath/xpath_functions.asp
    I've tried the default XSLT parser that comes with Java, the latest distro of Xalan and the latest distro of Saxon. Nothing seems to recognize the fn namespace:
    xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions"
    In particular, I'm trying to use the tokenize(string, regex) function. Only Xalan seems to support this at all, only recognizes {http://xml.apache.org/xalan}tokenize, and it is treating the regex as a literal.
    This is very frustrating. Is it possible to get the standard Xpath functions to work for XSLT?

    How did you get it to work with Saxon? I have saxon9he.jar on my classpath. When I try to transform this:
    <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
        xmlns:src="http://xml.kitfox.com/schema/game/tileWorld/textTable"
        xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xalan"
        xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions"
        version="1.0">
        <xsl:output method="text"/>
    <xsl:template match="/">
        <xsl:for-each select="fn:tokenize('a b c', '\s+')">
            "<xsl:value-of select="."/>"
        </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:template>
    </xsl:stylesheet>I get the error
    Error on line 100
      Cannot find a matching 2-argument function named
      {http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions}tokenize()Is there some other jar you need to include to get http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions to resolve?

  • In Firefox 3.6.17,why don't the tab buttons work?

    I've tried left and right click to gain access to new tab, but they do not work. I know they work in a later version, 4, but with version 4 I experience a lot of "freezing up".

    I didn't have the plain Ask toolbar, as I have refused it whenever it was offered. However, I updated Foxit reader yesterday, and noticed it was included, but couldn't see any way to not install it with the upgrade. So when my New Tab button didn't work, and I read here that Ask was probably the problem, I went and found the Foxit Toolbar and got rid of it. That worked a treat, and my button works again. Using Firefox 3.6.18. Thank you Edmeister :) Cheers, Keith

  • Why don't the add ons work when I install them? I can see them in the addon manager, but they don't work when I want to use them. Also very annoying when you have to register for one stinking question!!!

    I installed a new dictionary. Something that worked fine when I installed it in the previous versions, works fine on my pc. But I have installed the dictionary 3 times now and it won't "take". I see it in the addon manager, but when I want to switch from us to dutch dictionary, it's just not there to be switched to. It's annoying and I need the dictionary

    You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
