Seem to be an issue under Privacy. If I change those settings I see the video but the next time I restart it's blank again. I have Win 10, FF42 and the latest Flash. I have uninstalled or disabled all add-ons. Works in safe mode.

Other sites work fine - http://www.golfchannel.com/media/night-school-clean-your-downswing But not - http://www.menshealth.com/fitness/bodyweight-lunge-variations

Everything works fine in Chrome.

Thanks in advance.

Load the web page. After the page is loaded, click the down arrow next to the AdBlock icon. Now select Disable on <web site>.

Having more than one version of a program may cause issues. You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Thanks Fred. I disabled AdBlock and Https Everywhere and uninstalled Shockwave from my laptop. Unfortunately there's not change.

All I had to do is disable AdBlock per above instructions.

Thanks again Fred.

I did a FireFox Reset. I uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox. Both with no add-ons and keeping all default settings.

The first time I tried a video, it played. I reloaded the page and the video is gone again, just a blank spot on the page.

This is driving me crazy.

I want you to create a new, blank profile. Do not make any changes at this time. Go to that web page. Is the problem still there?

No change. I deleted the existing profile (deleting files too), created a new one, then Restarted FireFox, but still no luck.
