it uses scripting that is only usable in IE and I believe AOL.

You have to have the appropriate "Plug-In" installed for whichever internet browser you are using.  Like Shockwave, or Real Media Player, or Quicktime.  Check to see what version the video file is.  Likewise if you are on dial up it may not be that you can't watch the video but the connection speed is so slow it seems you can't see the vid.  I would say it's most likely a browser plug in issue.

That has nothing to do with Yahoo. Open your control panel and click on the mouse icon, then click on the "pointer" tab. There are also many on line places (some free ware) that you can down load from the net.

Maybe you need a Codec.\nCertain videos needd certain add-ons for media player to make them play - you just need to take a look at the error messages, find the codec, and download it.\n\nEDIT: The others are right, I used Div-X

I have the same problem. I think it's a problem with the internet explorer.  Open Yahoo with Firefox and you won't have that problem.

You must be trying to view an .avi that is divx or xvid encoded, try downloading klite codec pack.

Hi!\n\nLike you, I use a Mac and am frustrated that Yahoo! would be so short sighted as to not be compatible with Mac users.  This used to be evident with Yahoo!News and their news videos not working with any browser on a Mac.\n\nNow, at least, their Yahoo!Video service does... but you need to use Firefox rather than Safari.  You can d/l Firefox at www.firefox.com.  It's free and works well.\n\nYes, we have to "adapt" more than the Windows users ever will... but we're much happier using the Mac than they'll ever be.  ;)

its possible that the pages you are trying to view don't have the latest updates and thats why its taking to you an older version.  If you can get to the pages through firefox then its not an issue with your MAC its an issue with the site.

One of two things could be going on:\n\nYou either don't have the software to view multi-media files (like flash or quicktime)\n\nor\n\nYou have set your permissions to not allow active-x content in your browser.\n\nCheck to see if you have Flash Player installed on your computer, and Java.  If yes, then change your security settings under tools in your browser.

through what browser?\n\nwhat's your operating system?\n\nupdated your OS recently?\n\nhave you installed Adobe/Macromedia's Flash players current version?

1) Make sure you have on your computer Flash Player for your browers or you can find it here http://www.macromedia.com\n2) Try to visit the site with another browser like Opera http://www.opera.com or Firefox http://www.mozilla.com

simple straight answer, would be,\n\nto just uninstall the yahoo and then install the latest version, in case you were not doing that.\n\nthis would be true for any software on a computer if its not loading properly.

you need to use firefox, and search for an add-on that can download video from youtube
