I have a 5 line html code on my server uses the video tag; the movie I mention, in the code, is a file xxxxxx.mp4 I can play this mp4, online or offline, in IE,Safari, Chrome and Opera, but NOT in firefox (I have v12). It gives err: "no video with supported format of MIME type found" or the like. Must I convert my mp4 to another filetype, or is there something I can "do with" my FF vers 12!? I use XP, on a desktop.

I was having issues with Videos playing so figured I had to update my Flashplayer, but when I tried to update it kept failing to install and on the Control Panel for Windows XP I clicked on the Flashplayer Icon and went to the Advanced Tab and it states that there are no ActiveX Control installed but I know I have ActiveX version 10 installed due to some Games I have installed on the PC. So I was wondering how FireFox worked with or around the ActiveX Controls. This is for my piece of mind and future reference as I do all my own Tech Support for my PC and am self taught through trial and error about XP. Am running an Intel Celeron processor, 697MHz with XP Service Pack 3, FireFox 12.0, 192MB of SD RAM. Yeah it's old but it works for what I do. LOL Anyway any info on this would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance Craig

About an hour ago Facebook's home page stopped displaying properly in Firefox. I tried re-logging into Facebook only to discover that the logon page is also displaying all wrong. I'm having no trouble with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome so the problem seems to be between Firefox and Facebook. I have not downloaded/installed any new add-ons. The problem appeared while I was in Facebook.

I cannot get rid of the Yahoo Toolbar in Firefox 12. It does not show up under extensions or add-ons.
I have eliminated all Yahoo programs (Toolbar, IM, and some updating program) in the control panel Add/Remove Programs.
I have restarted the Firefox in safe mode. There are still no Yahoo Add-ons or Extensions that show up.
I then went Help | Troubleshooting Information | Show Folder
I clicked on Show Folder.
There's a folder called "Yahoo! Inc". When I open Yahoo Inc., there's another folder called ytoolbar. I have deleted Yahoo! Inc both when Firefox was open and when it was closed. As soon as I restart Firefox, the Yahoo Inc. folder is recreated.
I am unable to remove the Yahoo Inc. folder permanently.
This is one invasive program.
How do I get rid of it?

I have read and tried several suggestions on how to change my search engine to google and it will not change to google. I have deleted anything yahoo from my computer, I did the troubleshoot suggestions, I used malawarebytes, and microsoft essentials. Additionally, I deleted the spigot/youtube downloader and toolbar, that includes the add-ons, ms config, the registry, and in my programs. Does anyone know, outside what has already been mentioned what I can do to change the yahoo search engine to google. I would like to add, I still have the same issue in safe mode.

I had a similar problem previously, and was able to find a setting under 'tools' that allowed me to set it back to 'blank page' but I can no longer seem to find that setting and this incredibar.com thing is really obnoxious. I can't find a cookie or any sort of data stored anywhere that will allow me to remove this ad-on.

There seem to be a few threads about this topic, however none have answered/resolved my questions.
I set up an account on an airline website to manage frequent flier miles etc., and the first time I logged in, Firefox dutifully asked if I would like the page to "Remember Password?". I selected "Remember Password" and navigated around the site a bit. I then closed my browser. I opened it again, went back to the site, and my password was supplied, however not my username. So I went to Tools-->Options-->Security-->Saved Passwords and cleared the entry for this site from the list.
Why doesn't Firefox ask me to "Remember Password?" anymore? It is not on my Exceptions list. I have cleared cookies etc., but checked all settings, and still, the page will not ask me to "Remember Password?" again, even though it did the first time and worked.
How can I FORCE Firefox to "Remember Password?" Is there a way I can just input it, or at least prompt Firefox to ask me again?

I've noticed since updating to FF12 that now when I click to get "open link in new tab," the new tab opens on the far right of my tabs rather than next to the tab I clicked from, as it did in FF3.6. Is there any way to get it to work the old way?

I can play videos on YouTube, NBC, Fox News, but NOT on CBS. First, a message came up, stating that the video was "expired or unavailable", when other people could see it on other computers. So, not the site itself. Now, the message is gone, but the videos still never load. They sit with a blank screen, with an "advertisement is loading" message in the left corner, and they never actually load.
I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled both Java and Flash Player (which were already fine), but this didn't improve anything. I also completely disabled AdBlocker, and the AdBlocker Pop-Up, and they still won't play. So, at a loss here. My antivirus isn't set to block the site, or videos. The site clearly has the video, since other people can load and play it fine, so I am stumped.
Running Windows VIsta, 64-bit, and Firefox 12.0. Any help appreciated!
Oh, if it matters, there are SOME other videos I can't seem to play. I can play the normal videos on Fox, for example, but small, embedded ones (NOT YT), won't play. Some other sites, various news types, won't play, either. Most, no issues, but a few are just weird.
