So, I have new MacBook Pro 13.3", but videos won't load or they are VERY slow in loading. I don't know if its me and the computer or just the internet. It's driving me insane. ): I am using safari. I have all the updates. I just don't know why life is doing this to me.
I'm a new Mac user and I recently purchased a 15" Macbook Pro. I noticed that it takes a while for youtube videos to load which is quite annoying. I've tried different browsers (google chrome, safari, and firefox) and emptied browsing history, cache, temp files, cookies, etc but it didn't change much. The videos still take a long time to load.
I have just updated my Macbook to Safari 6.1.4. Since doing this I cant load any Youtube Video's. Have tried everything youtube has suggested, & nothing is working.
I did a search for this, but couldn't find any recent posts with this strange issue. For me, some flash videos will load and others will not. Youtube works, for example, but other video site often give me a black screen with the spinning white "loading" message, but the video never loads. One thing worth noting: I've noticed youtube videos do NOT work when it tries to load an ad beforehand. However, if I refresh the page, the video loads, because I guess it assumes I've seen the ad once already, and therefore doesn't need to load it up again? I've tried repairing disk permissions, emptying the cache, deleting all cookies, and uninstalling and reinstalling flash. What might be causing this odd problem?
I'm currently using a MacBook Pro, and Safari runs perfectly except videos on sites such as Youtube won't load (black square, where video should load or just blank area) music also doesn't stream on sites such as Hype Machine.
I've reset Safari and emptied the cache. Can download files fine, pictures load fine, everything works perfectly except for the video and music streaming.
Some YouTube videos just wont load. The counter of the video counts up to 00:04 and then resets to 00:00 again and again, while the loading wheel in the video box just spins. Firefox plus others - works fine.
Here recently when I've been watching videos on YouTube, The Video will load to a certain point then after that it stops and when the video gets to that point it just pauses and stops. To be able to watch farther into the video I have to keep refreshing my computer every time this happens and sometimes it loads farther, and sometimes it doesn't. I've tried to reset Safari, Deleting cookies, Deleting history, but nothing worked?
Safari takes AGES to load pages and play videos!!! It takes 40 seconds to load the page the first time Safari is open (quit and open Safari or open after Mac reboot or cold boot) and 20 seconds to reload pages afterwards. Frustrating!!!
Firefox takes about 2 seconds, Chrome takes one second and Opera is real time. Latest versions of all in Mac OS X 10.6.8.

Info:Mactel, Mac OS X (10.6.8), Booting from external FireWire disk
I have no idea what's wrong. I tried reinstalling os x with no luck. 21.5" 3.06GHz 4GB ram 500GB hd iChat keeps disconnecting, pages and youtube vids load extremely slow(about 1min to load this post page).
Certain webistes like [URL], take ages to load after i login. I have cleaned my cache , deleted cookies,etc.... In the apple store everything works fine , but not at home. When using other PC's / notebooks it all works fine, except my own Macbook. Other browsers on my Mc , have the same problem.
I am doing a school project where I need videos. How do you rip videos off Youtube and have them in the format for imovie (free). Also does anyone know how to rip videos off the c-span website?
I've recently upgraded to Lion and have found that Quicktime movies and embedded Flash movies won't work. With the embedded flash all I get is a black box, and with quicktime movies, such as the ones on the Apple website, I get nothing - the irony of not being able to watch movies on the Apple site with my Apple iMac gives me a little chuckle. Anyways ....... I've been reading thread after thread and trying lots of different things but nothing works. I've got this feeling inside that says it's something simple but just can't seem to find it.
I have a problem where finder (under any condition even after a fresh restart) does not load the folder contents on my computer. Sometimes it loads after multiple restarts but somtimes it doesn't. I cannot browse through files anymore as nothing appears. Nothing also appears on terminal either. Here is a screenshot.
My MacBook would not load web pages, do I restarted it. Now it will not load anything at all. The screen comes on, but the color wheel spins, then all applications disappear. There is only the background picture and the arrow, nothing else. I already shut it down, removed the battery and then turned it back on, nothing still.
i got rid of bootcamp from my mac osx hard drive, but when i turn on my computer it leads to a blank screen and i am doomed to do the hold option on loadup.how do i get it to go straight directly to macosx hard drive?
This started occuring very suddenly for the past week or so. I especially cant load anything related to google. Not even youtube. No matter the connection, wired or wireless, different networks, or the web broswer. How do I fix this!?
I just received my MBP yesterday. Installed a new HDD right from the get go.
Though, I read something disturbing about load cycles of an HDD which is not native to a MBP. Apparently the load cycles can get really high which decreases the lifespan of an HDD.
Now, obviously I don't want that to happen and took a look at my load cycles. The MBP has been on for about 3-4 hours now and the load cycle is at 224.
I have a dvd-r that has a bunch of IVR video files and some text files that I use for school. For some reason when I put this dvd into the macbook It prompted me as if I had inserted a blank cd. I knew it wasn't blank because I have used it on my old windows laptop. Knowing this, I put the disk into my windows laptop, ran it, and pulled up the content. Then I tranfered all the files from the disk to a external hard drive and pluged that into my mbp. The Mac could now see all the files including the IVR fomated files(??) but did not know which program to open the IVR files with. So I drug the IVR files in to my VLC player and it reconised them but showed them as being 00:00 long and played no content. This was confusing because VLC usually could play these files. To be sure that it wasn't just VLC, I downloaded Real Player ( IVR native player) and tried playing them in that but got the same 00:00 play length and no playback. What I want to know is why didn't my mbp reconise the dvd-r and are IVR files just not compatible with OSX or is there somthing else I could should do?
I am unable to get FB to load. Tried eliminating cookies as advised to another user. Did not eliminate the problem. I do not get any type of error message but rather the loading stops when it gets past the www. This happens whether trying to sign in to the facebook website or opening a FB message from friends. It won't load beyond the www.
My 2009 13" Unibody MBP will overheat if I so much as look at it, or so it seems!. The issue here is that the fan will come on really loudly and the bottom of the machine will become unbearably hot under the following conditions:
1. CPU load = 20%, temp = 76 C, browsing the web
2. CPU load = 33%, temp = 77 C, watching an online video
3. CPU load = 35%, temp = 82 C, watching a movie on lovefilm
3. The lid of the laptop is closed, and I am carrying it in a bag
4. I am charging it with the lid closed.
5. Using an external monitor I have to keep the lid open and on battery use, otherwise it overheats and the fan come on loudly. Obviously if I shut it down there is no fan noise, however it still gets hot when charging.
I recently updated safari to 7.0.6 and I am also on the newest maverick software but, when I try to go to any web page I get a blank white page that goes nowhere. It's not the internet because everything else works but safari.
I purchased the original macbook air. The fan would kick on at full blast within minutes and it would get very hot. I sold it and got a MBP. Needless to say, the MBP handles videos without any issues.
How would the newer rev C MBA play videos? n I typically watch youtube vids and movies on the plane.
I'm looking to purchase the 1.86 GHz model. Just looking for something a little more travel friendly.
