Why has bbc iplayer stopped working on OS 10.5.8

My mac mini has stopped downloads of the latest iplayer and firefox versions sayng that it it not compatible with the software.  The os check says that there is no softwaqre update available.  Ideas please.

This is so annoying!
I'm running an intel iMac with OS X v10.5.8.
I don't really want to upgrade the OS to a later version because I've got all my software set up the way I need it.
I don't want to risk messing it all up and having to reinstall it all or something.
Is there no way of converting the app to run on older OS versions? That would be handy.
Mislet, What the BBC nerds say?

    Why has my camera stopped working on Skype on my macbook air after running a software update to 10.8.5?

    See this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
    If that doesnt pass,
    Suggest looking here, much success has been found:

    Cellular data is a feature from your phone carrier.  Have you contacted them to resolve your issue.

  • Why has Lighting Effects stopped working in CS6 32 bit

    I have just upgraded my graphics card and Lighting Effects has stopped working in 32 bit CS6.  It never worked in 64 bit but it was OK in 32 bit until now.  I press the effect and nothing happens.  Can anyone help?

    Hi,
    If you revert the driver update do you get the Lighting Effects menu back? What is your OS, video card, and driver version? Do you have 13.0 or 13.1?
    regards,
    steve

  • Why has Media Encoder stopped working?

    Hi,
    I've been using media encoder to output files. It was working fine but it's suddenly stopped. All I get are 24 kb files. Has anyone had any experience with this issue? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank You !

  • Why has my Pandora stopped working and is asking for Adobe Flash V 10 or better

    When trying to access my Pandora Music account, it will not load, asks for Adobe Flash v10 or better. It has been working in the past but suddenly puked. I have been trying to download the latest flash player and it seems to download ok but times out on the upload, gets to 25-30% and loses connection. And I hate to say this but I have Hughes Net satellite. But like I said it worked before. As usual Hughes says that there is not a problem with their equipment. Speed tests have been all over the place, in other words not very consistent . I just had the Hughes Tech here at the house and he pretty much did everything that I have done with their customer service. And like I said everything has slowed down drastically.

    The Flash Player version you need is currently 16.0.0.305 and is only 15 MB which should take very little time to download. Moreover, there is nothing to upload, so it's not clear where you're getting the installer from. You should get it only from Adobe, such as this link. Download the installer file and run it.

  • Why has iTunes Radio stopped working?

    So this fun little bit of trivia has not been answered in these forums or on the interwebs. As of 3 weeks ago, when I go to play any station on iTunes Radio, my own or the defaults, the song info will populate but it just sits there as if it's bufferring. It never plays. I've done the basic shut down/restart, rest PRam, trashed iTunes prefs, nothing works. Is anybody else having this issue? Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.
    iTunes 11.1.4

    It seems to want to work, however it just sits there trying to buffer. It's been "buffering" for about 30 min now. Here's a screenshot

  • Why has itunes match stopped working

    i was uploading music onto itunes match this morning and everything was fine after i had finished i looked on my phone and iphone match had vanished now all i get it the cloud sign then no music
    i have rest my phone and restored it and still nothing i cannot find anythiing on the threads that work please help.

    I just had a 1 hour talk with applecare about this.  I was esclated through several levels. 
    They are not reporting an issue with the iTunes Match service but I can nolonger add a device to iTunes match and they have no idea why.
    I still have an open ticket.  But no known resolution... So I am betting it is a server side issue that Apple is not reporting.

  • Why has Elements 11 stopped working with OS 10.10.2

    I have recently changed from PC to mac. I have downloaded my copy of Elements 11 to the Mac successfully and was working for a while. Now the Editor won’t open. If I open it from the Icon, it just sits on the initialisation screen and I have to perform a forced exit. If I open it from finder, it goes to the Welcome screen and then when I select Editor, it stays again on the initialisation screen again. I have no problem with opening Elements Organiser, but still can’t go on to editor from there. I have uninstalled/reinstalled it several times with no success.
    I installed a copy of Elements 9. This works fine on photos from folders, but when I use it as an external editor from iphoto, it will only open jpegs, not RAW photos.
    I was thinking of moving to Elements 13, but am reluctant until this problem is sorted.

    What happens if you try to open the editor directly from applications? It's this file, not the one at the top level of the PSE 11 folder:

  • Why has Firefox Sync stopped working?

    Over the past three days, I've been getting an error saying "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action." It retries, or I try it myself, and it fails. Nothing has changed on my system in the past few days. My upgrade to FF4 was weeks ago so that's not the problem.

    I looked at the JSON backups, and they are all empty, which is when I realized this has escalated from a serious inconvenience to a full-blown disaster.

  • Why has my Airport stopped working?

    I have been using Airport Extreme to connect to my Belkin Pre-N Router for a long time with no issues until today. It was working this morning, then I left for a meeting. When I came back, it was not.
    I have a laptop in the same office, and it could see the Router, so I know that is not the problem. When I check "About this Mac," the card shows up in the Network info. I tried manually connecting the Airport to the Router, but I get a dialog saying "There was an error joining the Belkin network."
    Firmware version on the Extreme Card is 405.1 (3.90.34.0.p18).
    Any ideas of what is happening and/or what I should check next would be appreciated.

  • Why has Image Capture stopped working?

    All of the sudden Image Capture it won't open. It used to open whenever I plugged my phone in. Now I can't even get the program up and running.
    I tried this Pacifist thing, but it keeps telling me that the downloader or something isn't available in the iTunes store in Canada.
    Can someone please help me please?
    I even searched for iPhoto on my computer... nowhere to be found.

    Something isn't making sense - you say you have a MacBook Pro Mid 2010 with 10.5 Leopard on it? But Snow Leopard is the version of Mac OS X that came with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro. Perhaps you mean you have Snow Leopard installed which is 10.6, not 10.5?
    In any event, sounds like there might be some serious disk issues going on - do you have a local Apple store nearby or an authorized Apple dealer?
    If not, do you have an external disk that you might install a fresh copy of Mac OS X onto your system with the original DVD that it came on to do so? If so, I would recommend doing that and then copy as much of your personal stuff off the original disk as soon as possible before it gets any worse. Do you have a copy of DiskWarrior or some other disk repair/recover tool? If not, do you have a friend or mac user group who might be able to help?
    Good luck.
