why has my iMac quit showing videos?

Thank you for the idea but I have downloaded Flash three times within the last hour and still no video.  I have tried youtube, FoxNews, and CNN news.
Could I have some settings wrong?  If so whitch settings?

  • Why has Firefox suddenly quit showing pictures in eBay listings.

    About two or three weeks ago I noticed that Firefox no longer showed pictures on eBay. Only a blank box indicating where the picture would normally show. Yes I am properly logged on to the site, and navigation is otherwise normal.

    With eBay on display, click on the site identity button (for details on what that is see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button]) and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.
    First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)
    Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.
    This should hopefully resolve your issue, but also see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Images+or+animations+do+not+show].
    Some add-ons can also block images, for example if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block the images.

  • Why has my iMac screen gone to stripes. I am using Yosomite

    why has my iMac screen gone to stripes and nothing else. I am using Yosemite

    Could be the card or the screen.
    Courtesy BDAqua:
    Take a screen shot & view that in Preview, move the Preview window around, if you see double lines it's a Video card/VRAM problem, if the lines do not move moving the pic around then it's the LCD or cable.
    If your screenshot isn't showing the stripes here, it will most likely mean the screen, LCD panel, is the problem.

  • How can I get my iMac to show videos, such as those on YouTube, again?

    How can I get my iMac to show videos, such as those on YouTubes, email, AOL, and others, again.

    OK. What happens when you try?
    Have you updated your Flash to the latest video? Worth trying again, just in case you haven't.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Click Install Now, download, and run the installer from your Downloads folder. Make sure you install it all the way (it'll ask you to quit Safari). Then re-launch Safari and try the video sites again. If that doesn't work, download and run Firefox, and try there - let us know if one browser works and one doesn't.

  • Why has my iMac started to be slow logging on

    Why has my iMac started to be slow when first logging on, is it anything to do with me upgrading to Mavericks from 10.7, and is there any way it can be rectified?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • How do you get your iMac to show video (or mirroring) with Apple Tv...please help!

    I have searched this forum, read the articles here and on Google and I still can't figure this out. Perhaps what I'm wanting isn't possible.
    All I want to do is watch my CBS show from www.cbs.com on Apple Tv via my iMac. The Apple TV moniker is next to the volume in iTunes, and I can play music through Apple Tv via I-tunes and have it play on my TV. Thus, I know it is connected and working. I thought I could do a mirror screen like I do with the iPad, but for the life of me I can't find anyone who has covered the subject online.
    Can someone tell me, step-by-step, how to show video from my iMac onto my Apple TV. Thanks so much!
    Confused in the Lou

    If the specs you included about your iMac model are correct, it will not support AirPlay mirroring. See About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X - Apple Support for more about this, including the list of supported models & required OS X versions.

  • Why does my imac g5 show a folder in the middle of my screen that loads

    HElp my imac g5 shows a blue folder in the middle of my screen that flashes to the finder logo then back to a question mark and back and forth PLEASE HELP this computer has all my files on it and everything i need answers this is my life

    It means it can't find the hard drive. Get your original gray install disk,insert disk and reboot holding the "C" key until you get the OSX screen. Open Disk Utility and do a Repair Disk on the hard drive. If that works then also do a Repair Permissions. If the Repair Disk doesn't work your hard drive may have failed. My assumption here is you haven't been doing regular backups. If your drive has failed you may have lost all your data.

  • Why has my iMac slowed after updating to snow leopard?

    I'm not that great with the computer language so I need some 'for dummies' help.  I upgraded my iMac with the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and now it is slow as molasses.  I do have time machine hooked up to it but don't know how to use it.  I'm a retired stay at home mom (all the kids left the nest) so I have been learning things as I go but seem to be stuck in time with this one. I did read that people have uninstalled the program and reinstalled it a certain way, but that's where I get lost.  I don't know how to do that without getting nervous that I'm going to loose data. Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    OK, I think the problem is you don't have enough RAM. Even though you meet the minimum for Snow, which is 1GB, that's really bare bones. What happens when you don't have enough is paging occurs (Page outs in your screenshot.) Since there isn't enough physical RAM, the system starts writing the memory outside to the hard drive, and this is very inefficient and slow. If it keeps up, the computer will just eventually freeze.
    Right now you have only 65MB free, and although you have more in "Inactive," which is supposed to be available on demand, it often doesn't work the way it should.
    The temporary fix for that is to keep fewer applications open concurrently. The real fix is to install more RAM. If you're in the US or Canada, an excellent place to get reasonably priced, good Mac compatible RAM is from OWC, macsales.com. They also ship internationally, but don't know how costly that makes it.
    I would install the maximum for your model. If you call OWC, they can walk you through this and there are videos on their site showing how.

  • Why does my iMac suddenly shows the rainbow pinwheel every time I try to type something?

    My iMac shows the pinwheel every time I try to type on a website or email.  Is there a virus?  Looks like someone is remotely messing with my computer.

    tallsweet --
    Seriously, you can't run a Mac with only 85 MB of free hard drive space. It's not quite as bad as KBs, but it's still dismall.
    Can you go click on your Hard Drive icon (right hand upper corder of your screen?  At the same time as you click, press down the letter " i " key at the same time.  You will get a screen with your HD Capacity, Used space, & Available space.  Please let us know what your numbers are:

  • Why does  the iMac quit after 90 minuets when listening to iTunes on Apple TV

    RSS

    I have this same issue, even after new iTunes (12.01.26) and upgrading to Yosemite – iTunes plays nicely for about an hour, then stops and the iMac reverts to the log-in page. Under Energy Saver, Computer Sleep (Never) and Display Sleep (1HR). I have changed the last setting to different times but no joy. Does anyone have a good suggestion for this anomaly?
    Found this text in the help file:
    Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off
    Select this option if you want your display to sleep and your computer to stay awake.
    HOWEVER, this option does not show up under the Energy Saver on my iMac (27in. Mid-2011)
    Anyone?

  • Why has my phone stopped playing videos

    Within the last week (believed linked to my update to iOS 8.2) I can no longer view any videos (other than ones already on my phone - in the camera roll or video section). This includes ones on youtube, app or via Safari, facebook, Instagram, even videos that pop up in adverts on games don't work. All I get is the circle in the  middle of the video whirring round, and they never load. I notice that I get the data download circle whirring at the top of my screen too (next to 3G or wifi symbol) but nothing happens.
    has anyone else experienced this?
    apple, any ideas? And suggestions on a fix, it's driving me crazy, and my user experience is totally reduced from it!!

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.

  • Why has my iMac Internet Connect disappeared?

    After several years of regular internet and e-mail activity, a recent attempt to connect resulted in a dialog box saying: 'Internet Connect - The selected communication device does not exist. Please verify your settings and try again'. I never touch my settings!
    My situation is not helped by being a long way from the telephone exchange - consequently I can only receive a very slow bps and frequent disconnects. Could it be that my lack of up-to-date iMac Firmware is causing this problem?
    I have taken my work laptop, an iBook G4, home, and plugged it in to the network - it connects OK, so the problem resides with the iMac. As it takes so long to download updates, is it possible to download them at work and transfer them to my home iMac via a memory stick?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I just reread your original post. It's possible your internal modem has died. 'Yikes! 'Hope it hasn't. Does it dial and try to connect? Have you tried reselecting it in the network CP? Have you run "Repair Permissions" in the Disk Utility application?
    Your firmware version should be 4.1.9f1.
    Yes, transfering update downloads on a thumb-drive would work fine.
    Yea, all computers are great when they work, and a pain when they don't!
