Why won't youtube videos load on my mac?

I recently purchased a macbook pro with retina and i can't seem to be able to watch youtube videos. The problem is not all the plug ins and everything, I have all of those, the problem is that they won't load. Maybe a few seconds of the video will load and then it will stop to buffer. My internet connection is perfectly fine considering I just watched several movies streaming on Netflix and websites have no trouble loading. Sometimes putting videos in their lowest resolution works but I have this nice and fancy retina display and I'd sure like to utilize it. Any help?

1. Enable Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Internet Plug-ins > "Allow all other plug-ins
2. Check whether you are currently in YouTube HTML 5 trial.
     http://www.youtube.com/html5
    At the bottom left of the page uncheck the box for
   "You are currently in the HTML5 trial".
3. Reset Safari / delete cookies.
    Click Safari in the menu bar.
    From the drop down select "Reset Safari".
    Uncheck the boxes next to all items.
    Check the box next to "Remove all website data".
    Click "Reset".

Why won't any videos load from safari that are not related to YouTube work?

I'm trying to load video replies from ask fm but they are not loading, and it's the same with all other videos that aren't related to YouTube. Is there some sort of software or programme that I need to download?

Why won't Facebook (only) load on my Mac?

I get a server error every time. I've tried every browser and none of them load Facebook. (With Chrome, for example, the error message is: Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.) On any other computers and on my iPhone, it loads fine. Clearly it's just my macbook. What do I do? Thanks!

Hi There,
I had the same problem took me several hours to try and sort it out but nothing worked.
I then went to the following apple link

Follow everything to a T and you will get the use of your Itunes again.
Hope this helps. Good luck (And remember to breath lol )

Youtube videos load slow in FF & Chrome, but fine in IE.

So my problem is that Youtube videos load in a very choppy way in Firefox and Chrome, first 15 seconds load, then there's a long pause, before next 15 or so seconds are loaded. However, they load smoothly on Internet Explorer. I've reinstalled browsers and Flash, tried disabling HW acceleration, all to no avail.

It seems to me that you should not need padding if the bottom image is 'pasted' to the bottom of the menu. If the bottom div is the same size as the image, you also don't need to say "background-position: bottom;" You know that it is the 'bottom' of the menu visually. The div doesn't care where it is...it's probable that the padding is pushing the image right out of the picture (so to speak).
I don't see the bottom padding on the markup, anyway. Are the image you are presenting corresponding to the code you pasted in? By the way, seeing code pasted in is not as good as seeing the page and code in situ...by getting a link for it.

Why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

why wont embedded youtube videos play on ipad

Hi..
Try troubleshooting the Flash plugin which is required for most YouTube cotent as well as other sites.
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall first.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

Hey there Ray_J,
I understand that you want iTunes to be opening every time you connect your phone to your computer. You may wish to adjust this setting in your iTunes preferences to affect this behavior:
Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically
Prevent devices from automatically syncing with this iTunes library when a device is connected. To sync a device, click the Sync button when the device is connected.
iTunes 12 for Mac: iTunes Devices preferences
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH19595
If this is unchecked, iTunes will open automatically when you connect an iOS device. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

Why won't YouTube work on any of my computers?

why won't YouTube work on any of my computers?

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):

and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

An easy way to download and convert YouTube videos to MP3 on Mac

An easy way to download and convert YouTube videos to MP3 on Mac
I’m always attracted by the wonderful YouTube video files, and can’t help myself extracting the amazing audios to save them as MP3 to playback on my iPod and other MP3 players. I guess some of you may want to do the same thing as I do, but have not found an available application to achieve this goal, if so, I would like to share my experience here, and sincerely hope you can get what you need from my post.
The software I’m in use is Pavtube YouTube Convereter for Mac, which has performed very well on all the work I let it do. It can finish downloading and converting YouTube videos simultaneously in a few clicks. Besides YouTube, it can also deal with the video files from many other video sharing websites, like MySpace, Yahoo! Video, Google Video, Metacafe, Reuters, etc. Okay, let’s go back to the point to see how to use it to download and convert YouTube videos to MP3 on Mac in detailed steps.
Step 1: Add YouTube URL
Step 2: Select MP3 as output format
Copy and paste YouTube URL to the textbox after “URL”, meanwhile, if you want to save the original FLV YouTube videos, you can tick “Save FLV File”. Click the drop-down icon at the end of “Convert To” to select MP3 as output format. Furthermore, if you want to save the output MP3 file in your specified file name, you can type it into the textbox after “Save As”, and also, you can click “Browse” button to decide where to locate the output MP3 files.
Step 3: Adjust audio parameters
Click “Custom” button, then the following interface will show up, on which you are able to adjust audio parameters like codec name, sample rate, bit rate and audio channels.
Step 4: Start downloading and converting simultaneously
As soon as all the above steps are finished, you can click the “OK” button in step 2, after that, downloading and converting YouTube videos to MP3 will start automatically. Once completed, you can click “Open” button in the interface as below to get the output MP3 files with ease.

Embedding YouTube video into PowerPoint for Mac

How can one embed a YouTube video into PowerPoint for Mac 2010? The video tutorials do not show the same Power Point (for Mac) that I'm using. Even if I can just save (and retrieve) the file I just might be able to convert it to an MP4 for YouTube. I've tried keepvid and it wants a valid file format. The default is a text which doesn't work. I've spent about 8 hours over the past 2 days trying to figure it out. HELP!!!!!!

HT3775 Why won't a video clip play all the way through without stopping and loading so many times?

Any video clip that comes via email will not play all the way through without stopping so many times to load that a short clip takes 10 minutes to watch. Sometimes, the video simply stops and loads forever and ceases to work at all.
This happens for Youtube videos also.
I am using a Snow Leopard Imac.

This happens for Youtube videos also.
Uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin then reinstall new.
Very important to uninstall the old first.
Uninstall > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Then reinstall new from here > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Then restart your Mac.
