1. Hey Gorn
The performance of a hard drive or other storage device - how long it takes to locate a file
application or window at the front (foreground) on the monitor
a message that appears on screen, usually to tell you something went wrong.
an icon that points to a file, folder or application (System 7).
on the left side of the screen header. System 6 = desk accessories System 7 = up to 50 items
a program in which you do your work.
American Standard Code for Information Interchange. a commonly used data format for exchanging information between computers or programs.
part of the multitasking capability. A program can run and perform tasks in the background while another program is being used in the foreground the smallest piece of information used by the computer. Derived from "binary digit". In computer language, either a one (1) or a zero (0).
A portion of memory where the Mac temporarily stores information. Called a Copy Buffer in many PC applications because it is used to hold information which is to be moved, as in word processing where text is "cut" and then "pasted".
a technique that reduces the size of a saved file by elimination or encoding redundancies (i.e., JPEG, MPEG, LZW, etc.)
the machinery that writes the data from a disk and/or writes data to a disk.
to transfer data from one computer to another. (If you are on the receiving end, you are downloading. If you are on the sending end, you are uploading ).

2. You do it in your web browser. On the Mac look in preferences
Edited on Fri Apr-11-08 10:57 AM by alfredo
and look for Security. There should be radio buttons you can click or un-click. If you are using Windows, the names might be different, but you should be able to figure it out.

12. Maybe this will help
Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.



If you get this error message, it means that you either have JavaScript turned off in your browser, or you need the latest version of the Flash player.
To find out how to enable JavaScript, click your browser:

Internet Explorer 7
Internet Explorer 6
Firefox 2.x
Firefox 1.x
Internet Explorer 7
Select Tools > Internet Options.
Click on the Security tab.
Click the Custom Level button.
Scroll down to the Scripting section.
Select Enable for Active Scripting and Scripting of Java Applets.
Click OK.
Select YES if a box appears to confirm.
Click OK. Close window.
Reload page.
Internet Explorer 6
From the browser's Tools menu select Internet Options...
Select the Security tab.
Pick the Internet zone icon and select Custom Level... button.
Scroll down the Settings list to the Scripting item. (You may need to double-click on icons to expand lists.
Under the Active scripting item, choose the Enable radio button.
Click OK and Yes to confirm and close the Security Settings dialog box, then OK again to close the Internet Options dialog box.
Refresh the current page.
Firefox 2.x
Open Firefox.
On the Tools menu, click Options.
Click Content in the Options list.
Under the Content section, check the box next to Enable JavaScript.
Click the Advanced button to open the Advanced JavaScript Options box.
Check the boxes under Allow scripts to section that you want to allow.
Click OK.
Click OK.
Firefox 1.x
Open Mozilla Firefox.
On the Tools menu, click "Options".
Click "Content" in the Options list.
Under the Content section, check the box next to "Enable JavaScript".
Click the "Advanced" button to open the Advanced JavaScript Options box.
Check the boxes under "Allow scripts to" section for actions that you want to allow.
Click OK.
Click OK.
If you are still receiving the JavaScript error when you have it enabled, you should try completely uninstalling the Flash Player, and then reinstalling the most recent version.
For instructions about how to "completely" uninstall a Flash Player, see this Adobe Help article.

If you don't have a Flash player installed or you have just uninstalled the Flash player, download and install the latest Adobe Flash Player, which is available at the Adobe Flash Player Download Center.


If you have tried both of those steps above are still having issues playing videos, try clearing the browser cache and cookies on your computer.



If the instructions above don’t resolve the issue please try the following:

Temporarily disable popup blocking software installed on your computer to test.
Allow YouTube.com as a trusted site in your Firewall software.
Ensure other applications like Quicktime, iTunes, Real Player, or Windows Media Player aren’t set as the default streaming application, as this might affect the video player.


Windows Vista users:

If the flash uninstall reinstall does not work this maybe due to a Microsoft Windows Vista permissions issue.

Please use the Windows button at the bottom left then the search function:

Go to: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\
Right-click on the following file: FlashUtil9b.exe or FlashUtil9e.exe
Select "Run as Administrator" and install the update.
Restart your computer.
