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.

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&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&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!

There wasn't an answer, just a question. If you can provide a little detail around what's actually happening, and more about the environment (e.g. what model computer, its configuration, etc) it'll help people provide a solution .

Why doesn't my imbedded video play on iPad?

Why doesn't my imbedded video play on iPad?

Is it running flash? Because the iPad 2 does not run flash. Or it could be a bug in the embeded video. Run the debugger and see if that helps. Good luck :-)

Hi bsiria,
If you are having an issue with one or more songs not playing completely, you may want to troubleshoot this by using the steps in this arcticle -
Songs in iTunes may not play back completely
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4357
Specifically -
If iTunes in the Cloud is available in your country, try the following steps to resolve the issue:
Delete the purchased song that is exhibiting the problem from your iTunes library.
Click on the Purchased link in the iTunes Store to view your previously purchased music.
Download your previously purchased song from this list.
Note: iTunes in the Cloud, which allows you to download previously purchased songs from the iTunes Store, is not available in every country. Learn if iTunes in the Cloud is offered in your country.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Perhaps try resetting your iTunes Store Cache.
Go "Edit > Preferences". In the Advanced tab, click the "Reset cache" button shown in the following screenshot:

Restart your iTunes, and head back to the Store. Are you getting full previews now?

Why won't my Embedded forms show up at all?

I've followed directions exactly on how to embed forms to my website. I'm using iWeb and pasting the code into HTML snippet widgets. I've built a few website before using this procedure, and Adobe Forms worked great in the past. Recenly, I've updated a website and created new pages. Is there something I have missed? Did Adobe change protocol? Is there something wrong with my account? Is there additional code needed? The form dispays in my website editor, however: Why won't my embedded forms show up at all in any browser,(IE, Safari, Firefox, or Chrome) whether the browser is pulling files from a local folder, or from a hosted server?

Hi,
Will you be able to provide the link to your web page? you can either paste it here or you can send it to [email protected]
Thanks,

Embedded Video Plays on PCs but Not Macs

As the King of Siam declared, "It's a puzzlement."
I'm updating a site and have embedded a .mov from the client's YouTube channel using YouTube's preferred <iframe> code. Here is the URL: http://www.realcosmetics.com/ourStory.html.
The video will play in all of the browsers on my Win7 PC (latest Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera, and IE which also emulates IE7 & IE8). It will also play on the PCs of friends I've asked to test. It will not play from the page on any Macs where we've tested. [FYI, the .mov file was edited on a Mac and plays there.]
It will play on the Macs, however, from the YouTube channel. And the guy who is building the Facebook page embedded the same video on a tab using the old YouTube <object><embed> code. The test Macs have no problem playing the video from the FB page.
So, I tried switching to the old <object><embed>. Still doesn't play on the Macs, so I restored the iframe code.
What is totally confusing is that I recently embedded videos from YouTube into another site using YouTube's <iframe> code, and the client can play those on the Macs. Both pages use the same DOCTYPE (XHTML 1.0 Transitional) and code copied from YouTube. The page validates (after I removed the allowfullscreen switch which W3C said wasn't valid under the DOCTYPE).
I've searched online through forums and discussion threads for solutions, and while I found several that seemed to work for one person but not another (having to do with changing Mac preferences, etc.), none of those solutions worked on the test Macs.
Any ideas from you wonderful gurus? The answer may be staring me in the face but can't see it for having stared at it for so long. The only difference between this application and the previous one that I can think of is that the host servers are not the same company.
Thanks for pondering this!
Chris

Adninjastrator,
My advice was on the back of testing in Firebug - it was there I saw the .text div overlapping the Video. The video will become 'active' if I remove the float from #rcsVideo, however there are other floats and positioning that aren't helping anything.
To clarify, I can't get the play button to change when I hover over it (and I can't click it to play it) until I disable the float on #rcsVideo. Bizarre but that's what happens - in both FF and Chrome. No idea why this works in Windows machines without disabling the float. As you can see in the images attached, .text highlights the entire video area. Then, by disabling float:left on #rcsVideo, the text area is not covering the video.
The video itself is direct from youtube and has a flash fallback as well as many other kinds of fallback for all machines. As such, this displays in my iPad.

Embedded VIdeo Play Issue in Firefox

Hi peeps.
My OS is Win7 Home Basic 64-bit. I can't play any embedded video in Firefox, but I can in Chrome and IE. The video screen just goes black with circle loading stopped in motion. The tab isn't frozen or not responsive, simply the video wouldn't load. The only solution I have is uninstall both Firefox and Adobe Flash Player and reinstall both. After that I can play embedded video (like in Youtube, DailyMotion, etc). Even if I close and reopen Firefox, I can still play them.
But whenever I restarted my laptop, I'm back to square one. Unless I reinstall both Firefox and Adobe Flash Player, I can't play any embedded video again in Firefox. I have tried disabling protected mode in Firefox (when I could play the video in Firefox, I have unchecked the Hardware Acceleration-whatever). Already tried Firefox Safe Mode (Shift+Click on Firefox) but same problem. I have tried installing Firefox v24, 27, 28. Adobe Flash Player is the latest version 12.0.0.77.
I don't have any conflicting extensions or plugins. The other plugins I have installed are Adobe Acrobat 11.0.6.70, Google Update 1.3.22.5, Yahoo Application State Plugin 1.0.0.7 (I can say for sure Yahoo plugin isn't the root of this problem since I have experienced this problem way before I have YM installed). The other extensions I have are Greasemonkey 1.15 (same with Yahoo plugin, I have experienced this problem before I added Greasemonkey to Firefox) and IDM C.C. 7.3.68.
My guess is the problem is related with IDM. Iirc, before I have IDM installed, I could play embedded video in Firefox. But it's strange, since my netbook (this Firefox problem is in my laptop with win7 Home Basic) with XP SP3 can play embedded video in Firefox with IDM installed. Actually, I never had any problem regarding playing embedded video in my netbook.

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if this helps.
You can use the MSConfig program or the Autoruns utility to see which software and services are getting started (be cautious with disabling services).

If you have software like Advanced SystemCare that might reset some files to older versions to protect these files against changes then check the settings or uninstall this software.

View Solution.

Have you installed the quicktime software from Apple? There are other players that may also have the required codecs to play the video.
That is what is required in order to play a quicktime movie.

Embedded video plays and then shows frame one at end.

Hi,
I have an embedded video that is approx 500 frames. It plays through but at the end, when it stops, it shows frame 1. At the end of the video I have placed stop();
Any ideas on how to get it to stay at the last frame at the end?
Thanks for any help.

If you are playing the video in the timeline, shorten the number of frames that the video occupies until the video stops at the end. If yo are using the FLVPlayback component, set the autoRewind property to false.

Why is my .H264 rendered video playing in IE with darker colours?

I have created a video using black text on a white background. When I use Media Encoder to export as a mp4 file, the finished video always plays in Internet Explorer with a grey (instead of white) background. My graphics card is ATI. My colleague tried it on his computer and it played with a white background as intended. His graphic card is NVIDIA.
Under 'Project settings' in After Effects, I set the working space colour settings to: sRGB IEC61966-2.1. I read that you cannot choose colour output in Media Encoder so I put a 'Color Profile Converter' effect to my layers with the output profile set to sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
After rendering out as a lossless avi and then using ME to create a mp4, the video plays back in IE with a grey background. Most confusing... and I am wondering what I am doing wrong as I found a mp4 video that plays with a white background here: http://media.w3.org/2010/05/video/movie_300.mp4
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Rick, I have turned off colour management and the video still plays with a noticeably grey background.
In the attached screenshot from Internet Explorer 11, my video is on the right, and the video I found is on the left.
In Firefox and Safari my video plays with a white background, it's just Internet Explorer that plays it with grey. Is it possible that it is Internet Explorer's problem and not my video render settings?
