This is a short video my wife took with her iPhone. She claims she has
learned how to play our piano. :-)

It was originally a .mov file in her iPhone.

I converted it to an .avi file and then to a .wmv file using Windows
Movie Maker.

Then, I uploaded it to Photobucket. If you right click on it, it shows
it is playing using the Adobe Flash Player, however Photobucket lists
it as a .mp4 file.

Be interesting to see if your computer can view it in Chrome or Firefox.

'Mack the Knife' -- Chrome is a 'yes'.

Firefox and IE are both a 'no'.


Try uninstalling flash and downloading the latest version. Firefox needs
a plug in. I think flash is one of the ones that loads "bonus" software
if you don't un check it. Watch every screen you come to in the install
process.


I've done that a couple times. Flash (12.0.0.43) wants to load Chrome, and maybe MacAfee, but it's
bypassable. I've got the latest version on both IE and Firefox, and 'always activate' is the
setting.

They work in Chrome. That's good enough.

Have you tried Windows tech support? IE, after all, is a Microsoft
product. The techies there should be able to fix you up.

Nope. I don't use IE. I've been using Firefox for years. Now I've got Chrome loaded and finding
it's not bad. I think it's a lot more robust than either of the other two.

More robust in what ways? I don't use IE, but I've never had any
problems with Firefox that would call into question its "robustness."

I don't like Chrome because a lot of the add-ons I use in Firefox and
would like to use in Chrome ain't available, or weren't the last times I
checked.

Brighter, faster, easier to use...I don't do a lot of add-ons, other than the minimum.

I use Chrome on the iMac mainly because it retains the browser window
size. Safari doesn't. Everytime I open Safari I have to do the
command and + thing to expand the display.

Haven't found any need to install Firefox on the iMac, however I *did*
install Thunderbird, mainly because I like it and use it on the Windows
laptops.

I'm not sure why I didn't like Chrome last time I installed it - maybe a year or so ago. I've never
tried Safari, and I use MS Outlook for email, calendar, contacts, etc. As a matter of fact, it's
reminding me that I need to clean the coils in the refrigerator.
