Adobe flash player has stopped
Adobe flash player has stopped, it reads click settings restart application after changing settings. This spinning colorful ball won't allow me to click on settings, how do I get rid of the spinning ball? Once I am able to click on settings what am I supposed to change my settings to and how do I restart the application?

The version of “Adobe Flash Player” on your system does not include the latest security updates and has been blocked. To continue using “Adobe Flash Player”, download an updated version from Adobe’s website.
You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe. -
When I try to watch any video clip I get this:

I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player. It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!This did not work

After clicking Safari prompt box to "Download Flash..." , I'm linked to the Adobe Flash Player Download page. I click the "Download Now". The page advance to next page in the download process but then immediately goes black and nothing happens. System preferences firewall is off and apps are allowed from anywhere and in Safari other plug ins are allowed and cookies are not blocked and pop up windows are not blocked. Why won't Flash Player download?
Don't DL Flash from web sites. If you have Adobe Flash installed it should be in System Preferences and you can find the latest version and download from there.
If you are installing for the first time,this is where to DL it.

Hopefully this helps! -
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation - Facebook
When I look at pictures in facebook and click out of the pictures I have a message that pops up every time and sometimes shuts down Firefox. It says:
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following application on your computer or network: [object] is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location: www.facebook.com. To let this application communicate with the Internet, click settings. You must restate the application after changinn your settings.
I have run my virus scanner and have not picked anything up. My son downloaded music frost and wire frost (or something like those) and I deleted them before he downloaded anything but it somehow changed my settings of the search provider and home page on firefox and now this happens. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance.I think what I would do first, since there is a question on what was downloaded/Installed. Go to Control Panel/Programs & Features and take a look to see if any of those programs are Installed. If you see any that you don't want, remove them from there and restart your computer.
AVG can miss malware and don't find everything. I would go to www.malwarebytes.org and DOWNLOAD and SAVE to your Desktop the Free version. Then update it if it doesn't automatically. Then close the window.
Close all browser windows and Disable AVG. Then open Malwarebytes(MBAM) and run a full scan. If anything is found follow their instructions for removing it. When that is done, run a Quick scan with it.
Thanks,
eidnolb
Also, what pop up are you receiving? Who is it coming from? What Settings are you speaking of? -
How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro? It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place? If so, how can I disable it or get Adobe Flash Player?
That message is just a standard one issued, mainly for Windows users, you can disregard it if you didn't install any anti-virus. (OS X has one installed by Apple that doesn't interfere)
It's just some forms of anti-malware are really paranoid and lock the entire machine down. (like Norton)

Adobe flash player has stopped a potentialy unsafe operation
I have just on Dreamweaver add a swf file to my web page and the two scripts files were added, expressinstall. swf and swfobject_ modified.js when I try to open the pages on a pc with xp I get a message (Adobe flash player has stopped a potentialy unsafe operation) The following local app C:\\site\the bead game\mysite\scripts\expressinstall.swf is trying to communicatewith this internet-enabled location fpdownload.macrmedia.com What do I do It plays in the properties panel but not in live view or on browser lab should I Allow this is this normal.
Yes the popup is a local security warning if you test a page containing a Flash <object> that is attempting to communicate with another Web site via the Internet.
You can change the security settings to allow that file to communicate with the Internet the next time you open it by adding the file location on your local machine to the security panel settings:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
Choose "Edit location", "Add location", browse your local machine for the file and confirm your choice. Then you should see that location listed under the "Always trust these files" dialog box.
But yes, this only happens when testing locally and does not come into play when testing from a remote server.

I keep getting "Adobe Flash Player has stopped potentially unsafe" but can't click Settings
Every time I open a blank tab in IE8, I get a message:
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following local application on your computer or network about:blank is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location: s.nsdsvc.com. To let this application communicate with the Internet, click Settings. You must restart the application after changing your settings.
I have tried clicking the Settings button, but that just closes the message box. I have added both about:blank and s.nsdsvc.com to my trusted sites. I tried creating an html file with nothing in it and setting that as my home, but I am still getting the stupid message.
This is driving me to distraction. How can I fix it?
p.s. If this is already posted and answered, I apologize. I searched for it but it appears that the forum search is still broken.There is no swf in a blank page, so I don't know how to do what you suggested.
However, I tried something else that seems to have worked. I took EVERYTHING out of my list of trusted sites. I know it doesn't make sense, but I'm not getting those messages now.
Thanks, -
Error error adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation
Dear Sir,
This is regarding the error which i am getting when i open
one perticuler adobe application
"error adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe
operation "
I got one cisco flash presentation i am not able to open the
file because of this error. It would be really helpfull for me if
you could guide how to solve this problem.Awaiting your reply.I
would appreciate your earleast reply
Regards
Lijesh.I'm getting the same problem. No explaination of why, and
downgrading all my security to DANGEROUSLY unsafe levels doesn't
help, nor does setting anything in the settings app. (Have you ever
used a slower application?)
I did find (using a Google search) a blog that pointed me to
the article located at this address:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=13530cdd
I don't know yet if it will help, but it appears to be on the
right track.
Good luck. -
