Lately I've been getting a black screen on some youtube players and no way to play them.
It turns out than youtube is conducting an HTML5 trial. If you are having a similar problem (I have Safari as a browser and I'm told they don't "get along") you can opt out of the trial. Go here: http://www.youtube.com/html5 and click the blue letters towards the middle of the page that say "Leave the HTML5 trial". It worked for me. Good Luck! -Mary Mowder |

Thanks Mary,
That fixed my Safari as well! I had no idea what the heck was going on,
After much soul searching about a signature, I decided not to have one.

Glad I could pass it along professorwhut,
Now if I could get rid of this Adobe Flash message without losing all the cookies for places I care about. If pressing deny once would make it go away I'd be fine but it keeps popping up again and again throughout the videos often during the most important parts. I never used to have this problem till the last few months. -Mary Mowder Click here to view attached image. |

Mary, I get this a lot on certain sites. Clicking deny almost never works. Here's what you do. Move your cursor anywhere on the page you are trying to view and right click. In that window, click settings. You will see that little window you have will say something like "never show this again". Click on that (it sometimes takes several clicks). When the box is checked, click ok and the window will go away. You shouldn't see that window on that page again.
It's something that Adobe did quite awhile ago and I haven't had any success in finding out how to stop it permanently. It's trying to set up background information that you don't need and you don't have enough space on your computer so it's asking permission to override your settings. If anyone know how to permanently remove this function, I'd be interested. It's a pain in the butt.

Thanks Dave. You've probably helped a LOT of people.
With this answer in mind, can anyone tell me how to do this with an Apple mouse that doesn't offer "right click"? I only want to do something like in Dave's suggestion, that only applies to the page I'm on and not all sites I go to. Thank you. -Mary Mowder |

On Mac OS X, holding 'ctrl' down while clicking should have the same effect as right clicking.
