I am trying either a Mac (Mavericks) with Safari OR Windows 8 IE to access my IP PTZ Dome camera and always get the prompt to download and install the plugin.  I do this and restart/refresh and it still doesn't work.

 

On IE, I've gone to custom security settings and followed all of the instructions regarding Active X; I've also listed the IP address as a trusted device.  I still get the same message and I can't see the camera view.

 

On Safari, likewise, I've downloaded and installed the plug in and it too doesn't work.

 

I have the new 30x PTZ Dome with Autotracker camera and need to set up the scene/rules/parameters to auto track.

Did you try chrome the the PC? Chrome has more and more become compatible with the newer camera firmware these days. And if all else fails, I seem to remember reading here to delete your webrec folder on the pc, found in C/program files/webrec. Doing that will force a fresh install for the activeX and camera login prompts. Sometimes things can get a little whacky, especially if you have multiple cameras with different firmware versions prompting different login versions on a computer. A friend of mine with a similar ptz could log in, but could not fully tweak the tracking rules- they were grayed out entirely. The fix was deleting the webrec folder. Good luck.
