During my most recent update of Apple software (which, by the way, I recommend everyone should be doing on their Macs--desktops and laptops), Quicktime was updated. After this update, I noticed in Firefox that I could no longer see Quicktime videos on webpages--I'd get this Q symbol with a question mark). After testing out Safari and finding that I could view Quicktime just fine, I found out that I needed to make a few changes in Quicktime. Here's what to do if you're having that problem:
1. Click on the blue Apple at the top left of your screen.
2. Click on System Preferences, then Quicktime.
3. Click on Advanced tab, then MIME settings.
4. You should see lots of MIME types; click on the arrow next to Images, and make sure that FlashPix image is unchecked. Then click on the arrow next to Miscellaneous and make sure that the Flash media box is unchecked. Finally, click OK.
5. Now, when you're in Firefox, you should be able to see Quicktime video ads, etc., again. If you have any problems or questions, post a comment below. Hope this helps.
