Why isn't Firefox playing any streaming videos anymore?...On youtube or wherever I go the audio keeps going but the actual video just skips and freezes up the computer..

Any video that is viewable on the internet(youtube, flash, etc.) does not play in Firefox. The video is shown and everything but when I click it the audio begins playing normally and the actual video itself skips horribly and my computer begins to freeze up.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== After my little brother crashed my computer a few days ago(blue screen and everything).

    jean156,
    I am a little confused, you are posting in an iMac forum however your profile only indicates you have a MacPro. While I agree a SMC reset may help please carefully read the link The hatter provided because different Mac's have a different processes for resetting the SMC.
    In the mean time you may want to update your profile (Your Stuff in upper right and click Profile) and also please post in the correct forum to avoid confusion.

  • Why does the video freeze half way through my movie and the audio keep going?

    Why does my movie freeze half way through and the audio continues?

    Most likely this is due to running out of virtual memory. You can reset virtual memory by restarting your Mac.
    Long term you may want to consider purchasing more memory.

    What are you exporting?
    How are you exporting... QT Movie, Conversion, what settings?
    What drive are you exporting to?

  • How do I delete Photo Stream photos that are taking up hard drive space in my Masters folder, but not actually appearing in any event, or on the interface at all?

    A couple months ago, I activated photo stream using my apple ID. I was under the impression that all the photos uploaded to my photo stream would only use server space on icloud and wouldn't actually utilize disk space, or at the most, the option was available to only download specific photos to my hard drive. My hope was that I could upload the photos to a specific drive, and view the uploaded thumbs or low-res comps on any device as a reference.
    This is not the case.
    What I have found is that iphoto has been automatically downloading any and all photos uploaded to my photo stream. Not just the thumbnails, the entire thumbnail + all resolutions. I shoot RAW photos so in my case, the original averages about 15-25MB per photo.
    I have been uploading directly to an iphoto library on an external hard drive specifically designated for handling all my RAW high-res images.
    What has been happening is all those RAW files are also being uploaded directly to my iphoto library on my iMac and eating up memory which I cannot reclaim, even after deactivating my Photo Stream in preferences. We're talking almost 100 GB of memory is tied up right now.
    I don't want to just go in and start deleting files and folders in my Masters folder, since I have heard this will break iphoto, but the photos in my photostream do not show up in any event and I need to reclaim the hard drive space.
    How can I safely delete them?

    If the files are loose inside the iPhoto library package here's one way to get them out:
    1 - open your library, select all of the photos in the library and add a unique keyword, XXXX,  to all of them.
    2 - Rebuild the library with  iPhoto Library Manager  as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
    2 -  select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
    3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox  "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
    4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    5 - in the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
    3 - open the library, create a smart album with the criterial "Keyword is not XXXX".
    4 - the smart album will include those photos that were not visible in your original library. Select them and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move them to the iPhoto Trash bin.
    5 - empty the iPhoto Trash bin via the iPhoto ➙ Empty iPhoto Trash Bin menu option.
    6 - empty the Trash bin in the Dock to remove the files from your hard drive completely.
    Be sure to read Note 1 above.  You can use the new library without your books, slideshow, etc. and it will not  contain those errant files.  Of course delete the original library if the new one is satisfactory.

  • Why can't I update any apps? When I hit update it gives me an old id. But in settings my new id is totally set and verified. How cam I make the change in App Store?

    Why can't I update any apps? When I hit update it gives me an old id. But in settings my new id is totally set and verified. How cam I make the change in App Store?

    App purchases are permanently tied to the ID with which they were purchased. They cannot be transferred to a new ID.
    You will have to enter the password for that ID or delete the apps and re-purchase them with the new one.

  • Why is my purchased tv show skipping and freezing?

    I bought two episodes of a TV show and they've both completely downloaded, however when I try and watch them they skip and freeze and it seems as if the sound doesn't match up with the picture.  Any idea why this is happening? I've never had any trouble playing content on my laptop before.

    Hi, ANM100.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Here are a couple resources I could recommend to help you troubleshoot this issue.  The first article will help troubleshoot the audio and video out of sync issue.  If the media has been purchased from iTunes it could be an issue with the downloaded media.  You can delete the problematic media and download it again free of charge by following the steps in the second article.

  • I am having trouble playing MFX files in Premiere Pro CC. The audio is out of synch. Is there a way to monitor the audio correctly?

    I am having trouble playing MFX files in Premiere Pro CC. The audio is out of synch. Is there a way to monitor the audio correctly?
    Many thanks

    Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
    Keep copies of the originals.
    Another option might be to try to install Perian.  Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

  • I have a band video that I want to edit. In iMove 09, I could clip to crop or add a transition or both without altering the audio. In iMovie 11, the audio lower or drops out when I clip for and use a transtion. Is there a setting to preven this?

    Thanks for that info! Even in my time answering questions on iMovie Discussion Group, I never had a good understanding of when and how Optimize Movie came into play. I always would import as Optimized and Large Size and figured that was good enough. But knowing you got much, much more flexibility doing it the way you describe gives me a much better understanding of the different routes you can take into the Event Library.

  • Why is elements better at photomerge than CC- CC does not appear to automatically fill image based on content but elements does when merging a panorama. Also the stitching is visable in CC but almost perfect in elements- why?

    I took 6 panorama shots of a scene and used CC to Photomerge them as one. Couldn't see where to automatic blend the edges and there was 'stitch' lines when the images were merged. So i did the same in Elements 11 and it was perfect. Am i doing something wrong in CC or perhaps not doing something at all?
    Any help, please?
    Dave

    Hi - Thanks for taking the time to reply and i appreciate the remarks- if a little harsh- we all have to start somewhere and i am fully aware of the limitations of Elements which is why i decided to add CC to my software. I can only say that if an inferior quality software from Adobe does the job well then CC must also be suited to doing the same which is why i can only think, from your comments, that i have not done something simple- however- following tutorials to get to the end result should have sufficed- it didn't so perhaps i will consider posting the difference between the two applications- and, perhaps suffer a few more 'harsh' comments. The learning curve is quite steep and i am a visual learner, but i'm also not totally incompetent:)
    Kind Regards

    First a clarification: you are not addressing Adobe here in these user forums.  You are requesting help from volunteers users just like you who give their time free of charge. No one has any obligation to answer your questions.
    I'll give it my best shot anyway.
    Few folks in this forum are really familiar with Elements, for which there's a dedicated, totally separate forum.
    Different engineering teams, also.
    From this perspective, it will be difficult to give you a direct answer to your "why?" question.
    Personally, I blend very large panorama shots in Photoshop proper since I can't even remember when without any issues whatsoever, up to and including in Photoshop CS6 13.0.6.
    Without being at your computer and without looking at your images, I couldn't even begin to speculate what you are doing wrong in Photoshop, which I suspect you are.  The least you could show is post examples from your panoramas that have gone wrong.
    I can tell you that panorama stitching requires significant overlap between the individual shots, besides common-sdense techniques like a very solid tripod and precision heads.
    The only version of Elements I have ever used for any significant time was Elements 6 for Windows, which I bought in 2008 to use on a PC (I've been an avid Mac user for 30 years).  I found Elements so limited and so bad that I successfully demanded a refund from Adobe.  IU mention this only to emphasize that I can truly only address your question from a Photoshop (proper) and Mac user point of view.  I couldn't care less about Elements, but if you have comparison examples of panoramas processed in both applications, by all means post those two.
    Generally speaking Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve, while Photoshop has many hand-holding features for amateurs and beginners.
    Perhaps the bottom line is that you should stick with Elements if you personally manage to get better results there.
