yuotube problem

Asked by salam

HI my problem with youtube is that it is reall slow ,its stops every 5-10-seconds ,I do not know what going on ,but I could say one day before,I was downloading a short video from one web for teaching english to kids,that I needed to use to teach,after clicking on download I recieved a message saying this video need an aplication I did not have ,so I was asked to down load the aplication so I did on the same page I did go to no where,so while the aplication was down loaded,I had another message that said ,the aplication is downloaded but its not intalled,in a case to install it ,it will harm my computer,but I did installed it .
In fact I think I am not sure ,cause I am no experienced to tell.

Hi ,
please open a terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) and execute the command below

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

copy-paste the command from here , then reboot your PC and see if video and youtube works better.

Thanks

yes because its not a command, nor did i advise running that. if you copy and paste the command as I gave it, it will work and is why I give the exact command to run.

you could uninstall flashplugin-installer, enable the partner repo and install adobe-flashplugin.

Oneiric is EOL in April 2013 and I recommend you upgrade soon. Once it goes EOL you will get no support anywhere and zero updates

When @actionpasnip said EOL , means End Of Life = no support.

Read here about Ubuntu versions and support ...

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

so backup your personal data (music , documents , pictures...etc) somewhere to a safe place (such as an external HDD) and download Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from the link below
http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/

Then install from scratch ...

If the same problem persists .. post again here..

If problem solved (with the newer version of Ubuntu) , then mark the question as solved (This solved My Problem) ..

Thanks

Hi mate First of all I have no interest in duplicating and I soory I did not mean to,its only of my flagrant ignorance too simple.And about the way you offered me to down load the ubuntu version 12.04 LTS I am afraid I could not cause my
computer is only a note book ,I am reffering to cd ..Thanks

And why you cannot install Ubuntu 12.04 if your computer is a Laptop (notebook) ?

What is the difference , I do not understood..

You can download the iso (image) from the Link I gave and create a bootable media.

Media could be CD or DVD or USB..

Post back here if you want further help on how to create a bootable media of Ubuntu and how you can boot from that to install Ubuntu.

Thanks

No problem.. I'm here for this.. (troubleshooting) :-)

First of all format the USB to FAT32 filesystem.. if is not.. (by default is FAT32).

Then simple follow this answer

http://askubuntu.com/questions/150082/how-do-i-install-ubuntu-from-usb-pen-drive

I would give another answer little different with other program , but above answer has pictures on it.. is easier to read and understand..

After the installation finish , you must configure your BIOS to boot FIRST from USb-stick.

After you press "Reboot" and during boot process press [Del] key or [F12] to enter to BIOS config page.. There search for the option [Boot priority] or something similar.. and change as FIRST boot device the USB-stick..
Press F10 to save and boot in to Operating System.. after this , you should see the familiar Linux/Ubuntu picture of Installation..

Proceed with install as you know (you have already installed Ubuntu , so you know the installation procedure).

Thanks
