Have just spent several hours trying to get through to "LIVE CHAT" with this issue, and the Linden blew me off without helping. I can't hear music or see my television in Viewer 2.  I've enabled both in preferences.  There isn't a toolbar option with this viewer, so how does one start and pause sound and media? The Linden gave me a link to a Wiki article about firewalls.  I'm on a home computer, where there are no firewalls. I have no problem with this issue in Viewer 1, so what is the deal with Viewer 2? 

I'm new at "talking" in this forum...but I'd like to close this question now because have more.... I've downloaded both Phoenix and Kirsten viewers, but have found that I'm better to struggle through the SL viewer 2.1, than to attempt adjustments to these new viewers. That's just the sort of person I am. I'm going to attempt to close down this discussion because I have more worries with viewer 2.1

The advice on how to download the Phoenix viewer was very helpful. I was able to do it very easily, as described. I didn't like the picture that this viewer provided, so I've returned to our Linden Labs 2.1 Viewer. I seem to have corrected my no feet issue by stripping down to nothing, placing myself in an elevated float and redressing and attaching all.

I am truly not "a techie." I've been in SL for 3.5 years and had nothing but enjoyment, until the release of the new viewer, which I consider to be a nightmare in too many ways to list right here. A lot of my friends in SL are in agreement. I don't know of anyone who uses it. I've been forced, by some of the new skins, and some of the new clothing, to use the viewer 2.1. It says that the SL version must be upgraded to use the product. I checked the 3rd party viewers, which seem to all be 1.2, so I believe that I'd run into the same problem. Also, I don't begin to know how to go about establishing my SL with a 3rd party.

I'm being forced to use the new viewer by some of the products I've purchased.  A very big problem that I need to overcome is that my feet sink below the floor system of my home, so that I appear footless.  Hope someone can help with this issue.
