I can't get any video to play through Firefox. I have tried diabeling add ons, making sure flash is up-to-date, ect. Nothing works. Help

Videos from youtube, facebook, or other sites won't play. Quizzes from a learning site won't work. All play fine in Explorer. I have updated flash and java. I have disabled my add-ons.

When a video is supposed to play, I either get a screen that won't load OR....an error message saying to try again later. In youtube, I see all the thumbnail videos on the side, but can't play anything.

Chosen solution

You have some RealPlayer plugins that probably need to be updated. See Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox
