anyone else having problems with sites such as cnn and mlb not playing its video's in windows 7? it just sits there and does nothing. I have flash and everythign installed. This happens on 2 32bit PC and the same pages work perfectly with windows xp and even vista.........any help would be appreciated

i've installed flash player, shock wave etc. and still have the very same problem with mlb.tv, youtube etc. it's driving me crazy.

I can't load videos either

Videos on CNN no longer play in either Firefox 3.5 and Internet Explorer 8. I have the Windows 7 RC and this is totally frustrating. Any help would be appreciated. I've tried uninstalling an reinstalling Flash many times and also did the same for Silverlight.
Thank you.

This is driving me NUTS . Me got 7600 and Firefox 3.5.3 and i absolutely cannot run flash player (or whatever it is) for peanuts.

I tried to run MS e-learning and it kept on saying do not have the required Macromedia Flash Player plug-in installed with your web browser.

What's doing?

If FF is your default browser have you got the latest Flash installed on it - you need it installed in FF as well as IE? The Microsoft e-learning would, I'd imagine, use Internet Explorer by default and if you have a 64-bit system you would have to make the 32-bit IE the default browser and ensure Flash is installed on it as Flash doesn't work yet in 64-bit IE. There are shortcuts to both in your Start/All Programs.

I would've used IE however i removed it becos there are some work apps that won't work with it yet. I followed the prompts and install 10x what is recommended by MS e-learning and it seem to install fine however the adobe page kept on appearing.

You can't uninstall IE, it's part of the system! (Unless you got one of those special EU castrated systems). If you mean you uninstalled the latest version of it, then you've rendered the system unsafe as it should be kept up to date at all times. Many applications rely on a working Internet Explorer set to its default settings, and often use it in the background without you even knowing about it, so I would go to Windows Update and install anything it offers, critical or otherwise.

Did you install the Flash player specifically for other browsers as the default Flash download is only for IE. See the thumbnail attached (click to enlarge).

As I said, I would imagine that Microft E-Learning uses IE by default.

I just read this under System Requirements for one e-learning course advertised at Microsoft.

System Requirements

To view this course, you need:

• A Pentium II, 256 MB RAM with a processor speed greater than or equal to 400 MHZ
• Microsoft® Windows® 2000 or higher
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher
• Macromedia Flash 7.0 or higher (1MB disk space needed to install)
• Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.0 or higher
• Microsoft XML Core Services 3.0 or higher
• A Super VGA monitor with minimum screen resolution 1024x768, with 16-bit color.
• A sound card, and either speakers or headphones (for multi-media audio).
• Internet bandwidth of 56K or faster. Broadband internet access is recommended.

For courses containing Virtual Server-based labs (courses in the IT Professional and Developer Catalog), you will need:

• Microsoft Virtual Server ActiveX control (1MB disk space needed to install)

Test your computer's capabilities to see if it supports this course.

I cannot recall seeing that option when installing Flash Player. Can u give me a link for that install?

About removing IE8, I'm not sure where it is now but it's no longer on my Win 7 Install. This is what i did to it.
How do I uninstall or remove Internet Explorer 8?

lol that would be right about their own websites. So are you saying it's not that i have not installed Flash, rather e-learning isn't working with FF?

 

[Brink]

Hello AEM,

You can download the Firefox Flash add-on version from this link after you select your OS (Vista since that is all there is), click Continue, and select the "Other Browsers" for Firefox.

Adobe - Adobe Flash Player

Hope this helps,

Adobe - Adobe Flash Player

I would reinstall IE8. You don't have to make it the default browser and you can switch defaults anyway, it's easy.

Here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx

Don't forget to reinstall all the add-ons for IE...Flash, Java etc. etc.

From what I can read yes, IE must be installed for e-learning courses to work.

Adobe - Adobe Flash Player, i cannot see Windows 7 in the OS choice ??

I tried and reticked the IE8 as to reinstall it, reboot the machine and it still not there

And it seem i am not able to download IE8

"We're sorry, but you won't be able to download Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 Beta at this time"

 

[Ex_Brit]

Re-ticked it....where?

 

[aem]

How do I uninstall or remove Internet Explorer 8?

Just the reverse of how it was removed.

Cannot download IE8 as per Notice "Attention windows 7 user" link

Internet Explorer 8: Worldwide sites

 

[Ex_Brit]

Did you mean you ticked it in "Turn Windows Features On and Off", and it's not showing in your Start/All Program list even after a reboot?

(I had to boot over into my Win 7 as I was using Vista when I last answered you. I see now that IE8 is part of Win 7 RTM in any case & I believe that a beta version of IE8 came with Win 7 beta).

What version of Win 7 are you using and is it 32 or 64-bit?

 

[aem]

That's right, i re-ticked the check box, the system then looked like it was re-installing, rebooted the machine and it's not in the Start menu.

I'm using 32Bit.

I tried browsing the Cd to reinstall IE8 but can't find it..or not looking at right place.

 

[aem]

Found it! It was sitting under Program Files but not under Start Menu.

Still need to find fix for Flash under FF.

 

[Ex_Brit]

aem, which country are you in so I can look for that elusive Flash player for FF?

On my Win 7, admittedly it's the final RTM version, IE is listed before all the programs at almost the very top in the Start menu.

At least you've now found it so you can place a shortcut to it on your desktop. Make sure Flash (& Java) is installed on it first.

It's very possible that e-learning doesn't work in beta versions...but I would have to research that a lot.
