Youtube videos will no longer play in Firefox (only) - MAC

I can no longer play videos in YouTube. I am running Firefox 37.0.1 (MAC). This is a new problem, most likely occurring in the last 24 hours. YouTube videos are working in Chrome.

Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''General.'''
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?
If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • Embedded youtube videos will no longer play in Powerpoint 2010

    Since upgrading to Flashplayer 11, I can no longer play embedded youtube videos in powerpoint 2010.  I get the error message that I have to upgrade Flashplayer.  I have performed several clean installs, yet I continue to get the same error message stating that I have to upgrade Flashplayer.  How do I correct this?

    i know right here is one fix if u got 2010 powerpoint  youtube did some changes thats not compatable with it . 1 way around it that might work for you is within the use old embeded code  were it says version=3 change it # into 2 insted of 3. do this in both appeareances.
    example   <object width="1280" height="720"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1rcqwRgVvvw?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1rcqwRgVvvw?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="1280" height="720" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
    change the #3 to the #2 thats it. then paste it in your powerpoint insert video from web.

  • Videos will no longer play with firefox but will still play with explorer. I reinstalled flash player. tried resetting nothing seems to help

    I have tried everything I know and nothing has worked. Yesterday everything was fine and today I can't get videos to play. I have tried Youtube and various news sites as well as Yahoo news. All I get is a blank screen. I tried it with Internet Explorer and all work. Anyone have any ideas?

    There are a number of active threads concerning the latest Flash player plugin (11.3) and the latest Firefox (13). Not all users are experiencing the same issues, but things to check include the following:
    - Conflict with Realplayer Browser Record plugin (to disable this, open Add-ons from the orange Firefox button or the classic Tools menu and look under the Extensions and Plugins categories)
    - Conflict with Flash 11.3 Protected Mode (see [http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071?tstart=0 Adobe Forums: How do I disable Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?])
    Scanning down the front of the forums probably will yield additional suggestions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions

  • Video will no longer play, cannot add video content either.

    Since this afternoon, iTunes video will no longer play. Not movies, not TV shows. I checked and music and podcasts still play. I thought it might be a conflict between purchased video vs video I added from my DVDs, but no such luck. Purchased content will not play. Nor can I add any new video, whereas I added a new TV show episode this morning.
    If I go into the iTunes LIbrary file and select a video and choose "Play with Quicktime" the video plays just fine. But if I select "Play with iTunes" nothing happens. At all. Not even an error code. It's like I didn't select anything. If I try to add content by the keystroke "command O" and choose the file … again, nothing. No error. Just no response at all. When I open that file on my computer, select "Play with Quicktime", then choose "Share with iTunes" inside Quicktime I do finally get an error. "This file cannot be shared (error 206)". I looked up this error code and found this: "The filename or extension is too long." This does not make sense. The file names are fine and the extensions are exactly what I always use to add content to iTunes.
    So it's like the entire video portion of iTunes has ceased to function. Any clues?

    There are a g-zillion posts sharing your problem... but still no answer from Apple. The odd thing is that it is not affecting all of us.

  • After upgrading, my MP4 vacation videos will no longer play.???

    Just upgraded my old Leopard to Snow Leopard and quickly noticed that it takes 10-20 times longer to load some web pages, if they load at all. Also, I've had to switch to using Firefox to pay one of my credit card bills for this reason. And now I have noticed that the MP4 videos from my great vacation (stored in I-Photo) will no longer play. ???? Any idea what I can do? Thanks.

    Use Software Update or the OS 10.6.8 combo update to update your OS.  Also, update everything SU has to offer for your computer.  When done, repair permissions and restart your computer.

  • Videos will no longer play and add-ons and plug-ins say up to date?

    My computer no longer plays videos-- whether on facebook or youtube... facebook videos get a tiny square but never open to play-- youtube screen where video should be is blank... all add-ons and plug-ins say up to date. I have comcast internet. Thank you

    Please try two things, please clear the storage for the flash plug in by right clicking where the video should be and clicking "Global settings" and navigate to storage. Clear the stored data and restart Firefox.
    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • My website doesn't open/start youtube video, after link clicked. In Firefox only.

    On my Joomla project (running under xampp local host) has a link to a youtube video, which worked fine, but not anymore. After clicking it, the resized pop-up window (java script) doesn't open the video. Window remains black and status beam at the window botttom shows 'ready'.
    This problem wasn't there in former Firefox releases (3.6.. now) and doesn't occur in ms-IE, Safari and other browsers.
    Please let some one fix this.
    Regards
    Jac

    Can you post a link to your website?
    Do you see any errors in the Tools > Error Console about that problem?

  • Since the lastest update, videos will no longer play. They start and stop over and over again.

    Since the latest update to Firefox, I can no longer view videos on my PC. They start, play for a few seconds, then stop and repeat this process over and over again.
    I have a high speed internet connection and never had this problem until this past Thursday (10-06-11) after Firefox updated.

    Restart the Apple TV >  Apple TV: How to restart your Apple TV

  • Iphone videos will no longer play on mac after upgrade

    Hi, I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and since doing so, all the video's that I took with my iphone and moved to my mac (everything that was on my mac already prior to the upgrade), no longer work. I basically lost all videos of the first 6 months of my daughters life following the upgrade and I would like to know how I can get the videos' to work again or if this is lost for good?

    Hi, Slumdog13.
    Where did these videos come from? Did you download them directly from Nokia Suite or did you sync your mobile device and got these videos from there?
    What is the format of the old videos that you are trying to play? Have you also tried to sync/transfer new videos and then play them? If yes, have you encountered the same error message?
    Have you also tried transferring these videos from the Nokia Suite to your Desktop and check if you'll be able to play them?
    You can also try to update the Nokia Suite to the latest version "Nokia Suite 3.8" or uninstall and then re-install it. Just visit the link provided below:

  • Videos will no longer play on laptop

    i have tried to look at some of my old videos in my Nokia Suite on my Vista laptop today, but none of them will now play.
    I get "video cannot be played, the video file may contain an unsupported video format."
    They have always played before why not now?
    Could it be because I haven't been able to update the suite to 3.8.48.0?
    Thanks.
    Solved!

  • Videos will no longer play in iTunes on computer

    I am running 32 bit Vista and iTunes 8.02 and quicktime 7.5.5. I just installed the digital version of Appoloosa and it either crashes iTunes or plays with a green screen. I tried my other digital copies I have watched before without a problem and they crash iTunes. I tried disabiling Direct 3D in Quicktime and even safe mode. The only thing I got was it playing in white. HELP!

    Here is the log. Looks like its QT is crashing it. So, again, its either QT, or one of the Vista updates. I haven't tried to watch a movie on the computer in awhile so I have no idea what update in the past few months is causing the problem.

  • Purchased music will no longer play on iPod only

    Has anyone else had this problem with iTunes 6? None of my purchased music wil play on my iPod anymore, I have updated to the latest versions of all the software, iTunes, iPod and QuickTime. I bought music today. As soon as I copied it to my iPod, not only will the new music not play, but nothing I have purchased from iTunes will play anymore. The device simply skips to the next song on the list not from iTunes. No messages or explanation. It simply ignores the files and moves on to the next. All music plays on my computer. This seems to be an iPod problem, and there are no updates to add for it. It only happened after I upgraded to and purchased music from iTunes 6, Any ideas? All suggestions would be appreciated.

    Thank you for responding. I am using iPod software 2.3 on what I believe is a second generation 15GB iPod, the one with the four buttons below thw screen; the last one before the click wheel version. I think it's the only one they made in 15GB size. Anyway, 2.3 is the most updated software that this model can take. I've noticed from the discussions that many people are having similar problems that vary a bit. I hope Apple is noticing these glitches.

    My iPad will not play sounds on certain applications. ie: if I click on a video from FB sound will not play. If I go to YouTube and play the same video sound will play. Also certain games will no longer play sounds. They always played sounds but now won't now. I just went to my churches web site to watch live service and again no sound. I grabbed my dads iPad and the sound works fine.

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
