Can't play/view CNBC Videos in Safari?

Hello new:

Welcome to Apple discussions.

There are - occasionally - a few sites that do not play well with Safari. My own 'workaround' is to use Firefox to view those sites and then send the site tech support people an E-mail documenting the problem.

Adding to Barry's helpful direction, the link you posted has poor coding. As Safari follows strict industry guidelines, this type of site usually won't render in Safari.

I tried the link in Firefox where it played without problem, although the CPU temperature when up 10 degrees C.

Poor coding contributes to inconsistancy across platforms and browsers. The Web Standards Project is attempting to raise industry awareness and standards to minimize this type of problem.

In the meantime, it's good to have alternate browsers. I use Safari as a primary with Firefox and Opera (sometimes Camino) as alternatives. Here's the various sources where you can download the browsers:

Firefox
Camino,
Mozilla,
Opera,
OmniWeb (shareware).

You're welcome. Glad to help.

You have the option of "awarding" up to two "helpful" designations - (to the far right of a person's screen name) to anyone who has helped you with information.

In instances where your question was satisfactory answered, one "solved" designation is also available (IMO ought to go to Barry).

Preferred placement for either choice is next to the post solving or helping you resolve your issue. Makes for easier tracking for those looking for the solution. It also adds to a person's Level Status, which in itself is helpful for others knowing a person's skill level and their ability to assist others with computer questions.
