Flash 10.3 not working with Firefox 6

Up until today, I've never had any problems with Firefox and Flash Player.
However, all of a sudden, Flash won't work for me, today.
I've already uninstalled Firefox, uninstalled Flash Player, re-installed Firefox (Windows 7) and re-installed Flash Player 10.3. I already checked to ensure the Flash Plug-in is enabled and updated.
Anyone have any idea what is going on here?
edit: since the original posting, I also ran a malware scan (found no infections) and also cleared the cache. No change in my situation; still same original problem.

It seems the problem was related to the "NoScript" extension. For whatever reason, without my knowledge, "NoScript" started blocking all Adobe Flash. I only discovered that by chance, when I went to: Add-ons >> Extensions >> NoScript Options >> Embeddings, and found the "forbid Adobe Flash" box checked.
I toggled that box to off, and everything started working fine again.
I've been using Firefox, NoScript, and Flash all for a while, through several version updates of these products, and never had this problem before. I don't know why it happened, but it sure was annoying.
Anyways, fixed now. I hope my experience helps someone else get a faster solution to the same problem.

  • Flash video has not worked with Firefox browser for years. When will you fix this?

    Anyone who uses Firefox browser (for Windows or for Mac) knows that flash video playback ceased working sometime around Firefox ver 13 and has not worked since.
    The Mozilla people say it is Adobe's fault - instead of fixing Firefox.
    They say roll back to Adobe Flash version 10.
    This solves the video problem, but then, any other services that depend on the latest Flash build, quit working properly.
    This situation leaves millions of Firefox users in perpetual frustration. We can't use our browser of choice to view any web video built with Flash.
    This is so unacceptable. I am unable to understand why Adobe and Firefox don't get together and iron out whatever code incompatibility is causing this.
    I would really like to hear Adobe's explanation for this.

    Uh... I don't know what planet you posted this from, but Flash video has worked flawlessly with Firefox for hundreds of millions of users here on earth, without any gaps since Firefox was still called Mozilla.
    For the record, I have Firefox 28 with Flash Player 13 installed on:
    WIndows XP (SP3-64bit)
    Windows Vista Ultimate (SP2-64bit)
    Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1-64bit)
    Windows 8 Enterprise (64bit-2 machines) 
    Windows 8.1 Enterprise (64 bit)
    OS 0.6.8 Server
    OS10.7.5
    OS10.8.5 
    OS10.9.2
    And I've had Firefox with Flash Player since 2003 on both OS formats. I've never had a compatibility problem.
    I also use Chrome, IE, Opera, Safari and a few other browsers you probably never heard of (like SeaMonkey, Maxthon, Waterfox, iCab, OmniWeb)... Flash works in all of them.
    I'd have to say the problem is with your system specifically, because if it was a Firefox/Flash compatibility problem, there would have been hundreds of millions of complaints about it, for over a decade. That... just isn't the case.

  • Flash player 10 Not working with firefox Please Help

    I have posted here before and for some reason flash player is still not working.  I haven't been able to get on any of my fb games because of this.  When I go to
    play any games it loads the pic then it fades to a white screen, when Ieft click on the mouse it shows a grey box that states Movie not loaded or Adobe flash player 10.
    Here is some of the files from my Macromedia
    FlashInstall
    flashplayer.xpt
    FlashUtil10l_Plugin
    NPSWF32.dll
    FlashUtil10k_ActiveX.dll
    If you have any suggestion please help it would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm not sure if you will receive this, Tonyae, but my ability to reply in
    that thread appears to have been disabled.  It says below that I can reply
    to this email and you will get it so hopefully that's true.
    I don't know how or why, but things are working again for me.  I uninstalled
    / reinstalled Firefox and Flash countless times.  I disabled Java, which
    someone had suggested in another thread.  Nothing was working.  I had
    restarted Firefox after every installation, but all of my attempts were
    futile.  Finally, I restarted my laptop and it worked - I can finally watch
    videos on my computer again.  (I know I should have tried that much earlier
    in the process.) Very relieving to say the least.  I'm sorry you're still
    having trouble because I know how frustrating it was.
    If you receive this, I know I haven't offered much but I would highly
    recommend restarting your computer after every change you make.  Keep
    plugging away and one of them will hopefully work.  Good luck!

  • Adobe Flash 10.3 not working with Firefox 17.0.1

    I need to use Adobe Flash 10.3 for certain reasons and it was working just fine until today, when my Firefox updated itself to 17.0.1. Now, anytime I visit a web site with Flash (YouTube and others) the area where the video is supposed to be is blank. Any ideas?

    There is a conflict with Flash Block and Firefox 17.0.1 update watching videos on Facebook.
    One has to disable Flash Block extension now with this new FF update, whereas this problem did not occur prior to the Firefox update and recent Flash Player update.
    The problem is limited to the Firefox 17.0.1 update/Flash Player 11.5 update/and videos on Facebook interface.
    My system is Mac OS 10.6.8. iMac desktop.
    Would appreciate a notice if Firefox finds a fix for this.

    My browser is Firefox 3.6.8 32bit

    Hi, Just got my Internet connection back! Without knowing what add ons/plugins/extensions you have in FF, it is difficult
    for me to say what else may be conflicting.
    Other than that, your choices are either Uninstall 3.6.10 and Install a version that wasn't giving you a problem. You could Install the FF beta.
    Mozilla has a list of many extensions that conflict with FF if you want that link to look over. One of the other links has to do with other issues that may be helpful.
    Let me know and I'll post those to you.
    Thanks,

  • Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1?

    Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1 64, If i try and play a video I get the message to install Flashplayer.
    If I try and install it it says it is already installed. Your onsite  installer says it is not applicable to my machine.
    I have followed all the normal steps re enabling addons and active filters etc.
    all to no avail Pc is Dell 6 months old, Flashplayer has never worked on this machine. Last MS update mid Dec 2014.
    Version of flashplayer is 15....03.......

    Flash Player is a built-in component of Internet Explorer.  There's nothing separate to download or install.
    Firefox requires a different version of Flash Player (the NPAPI plug-in), which will be served to you if you go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Firefox; however, there are some unique stability issues related to Firefox on Win8.1, and you're probably better off using Google Chrome if you want a more optimal experience with Flash Player.
    For problems where IE isn't being detected by sites that require Flash:
    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

  • Flash Player 11.3.300.262 Not working with Firefox. I think I found the problem.

    *Flash Player 11.3.300.262 is not working with Firefox. I think I found the problem.*
    Millions of people got off work & turned on there computers recently to discover that Firefox is not playing any videos or flash content. Just like me, millions of people are randomly searching the internet in a futile & frustrating attempt at answers. Unfortunately, many of those people will simply stop using firefox & deem it a glitchy, unreliable browser.
    This happened to me a couple days ago. I started up my computer & got a pop-up from Adobe saying that I need to update my flash player to 11.3.300.262. I've always thought of adobe as being a reliable software company, so I clicked on it with confidence that things will be working even smoother. To my horror, I relalized that right after the update, my main browser, firefox was destroyed. Then I went on the frustrating process of uninstalling, re-installing, running virus scan, researching the internet like a lost child. I said to myself, "that's why I hate updating stuff, because updates always seem to change stuff you don't want it to change & there always seems to be a problem with the updates." I usualy update software months after it releases, because microsoft & all the other software companies always seem not to test there stuff properly before releasing them. Then we have to look at a glitchy computer until the next update fixes it. Well, that is my rant. Now let me discuss the problem I found.
    Problem:
    What I did was, go into my firefox extentions menu & I disabled the 11.3.300.262 & I re-enabled the previous flash player. After that, everything worked perfect again. Then a today (a week later), I turned on my computer & my firefox wasn't playing any videos or flash content again. I went into my firefox extenions menu again, & I discovered that my old flash player had been deleted, & this new glitchy 11.3.300.262 had been enabled. Why did adobe feel the need to into my computer & automaticly delete & update my flash player. Now it doesn't work. THIS IS REALY FRUSTRATING!
    The Issue I discovered:
    "RealPlayer" is the most popular video program & it is installed on millions of computers. For some strange reason Firefox does not want its users to use Real Player. Specifically the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin 15.0.2. I also discovered that my Browser Record Plugin 15.0.2 was automatically disabled when the Adobe 11.3.300.262 was automatically updated also.
    - Maybe this could be because of some copyright conspiracy to keep people from downloading videos from the web.
    - Maybe firefox wants people to use there download add-on instead of RealPlayers downloader.
    I don't know what ther reason is. But what I do know is Nobody is going to delete there RealPlayer from there computer just to use FireFox. We can simply use Chrome or Internet explorer. I took the advise from Adobe & disabled the FireFox RealPlayer Extention. I also went into my RealPlayer preferences options, But there was no option to disable download recording from FireFox. BECAUSE I ALREADY DISABLED THE ADD-ON in FireFoxes menu.
    Solution:
    Step 1: Adobe needs to update all the computers with the previous flash player. That way we can choose to enable the previous flash player in our FireFox. or wait until a new update fixes the problem with firefox.
    Step 2: Adobe & FireFox need to get together & go back to the drawing board. They need to create a update that actually works on computers that have Real Player installed on them. I don't care which company does the update. All I care about is if it works. Thank You.
    Oh yea, Im running FireFox 13.0.1, Windows 7, HP computer, Real Player is up to date.

    Hey Chris,
    I was able to duplicate this issue on my Windows 7 laptop as follows:
         1)  Completely uninstall FlashPlayer (using your tool) as well as Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Maintenance Service (used Windows 7 - uninstall from Control Panel).  Please note that I checked the box that said "Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations" to ensure that Firefox was completely gone from my laptop.
         2)  I then went out to the Firefox website and downloaded the "Firefox Setup 13.0.1.exe" app to my laptop.  I ran this app to install Firefox.
         3)  I then went to the following website http://www.ishmael.org.uk/karaoke02.php as I know that this URL uses Flash Player (obviously you can go to any URL that uses Flash Player - I'm just letting you know which one I used).  I then clicked on the icon on this page to install Flash Player.
    Once the install was completed, the URL stops responding and appears to be locked up (although it will occassionally hiccup and display portions of the page and then lock up again).  You will eventually get a pop-up notice from Firefox that has the header "Warning:  Unresponsive script" and says the following: 
         A script on this page may be busy or it may have stopped responding.  You can stop the script now, or you can continue to to see of the script will complete.  Script:  chrome://browser/content/browser.js:6551 
    Selecting "Stop script" will get Firefox working until you hit another page that uses Flash Player.
    To ensure that the above URL is not the culprit, I used one from your website http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html and had the same results.
    Hope this info helps!
    Jeff
    NOTE:  As a reminder, I do not have RealPlayer installed on my laptop (and never have had it installed)

  • Flash player stop to work with Firefox

    Ok it’s just killing me!! Flash player stop to work
    with Firefox
    All my web site users including me have this problem and I
    guess all the millions of mozilla users
    When you press play it’s not working or it’s no
    sound
    What solve the problem is to download oldest Flash-Player
    Please fix it as fast as you can.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the assistance Chris.  I tried the 11.7 option without success.  I downloaded the 11.7 file, I closed all browsers, used the flashplayer uninstaller, restarted the CPU, installed the 11.7 (with auto updates disabled).  Restarted Firefox, tested a Flickr video, same "no-play" results. 
    However, after doing the same thing and downloading the Archive version http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.3.183.75_archive.z ip I was able to play the Flickr videos!  WooHoo. 
    I completed the update process to the latest version, and now the videos play properly with the latest version!
    Not sure what the bad actor was, the 11.7 version did not fix it, but the older 10.3 version did!
    Thanks to all for the assistance with this pain in the arse issue.

  • Adobe flashplayer not working with firefox

    I have downloaded the latest adobe flashplayer plugin but it is not working with Firefox. It does work on Internet Explorer.

    I'm running Vista 64 bit and the current version of Flash (11. whatever) doesn't apparently work with Vista 64 bit - why, I'm not sure but this is what happens when one company dominates the market like Adobe. Anyway, I have the 10. whatever version installed now and Flash is working in Chrome and in IE. This problem occurred because I updated Firefox to version 8, after which Flash was still working with the old version installed. THEN I got the annoyingly repetitive reminder from Adobe to update Flash to 11 and finally succumbed. After updating Flash, I could no longer get sound from any online videos. So I uninstalled, found a 10. version of Flash and figured that would solve the problem since Firefox 8 WAS working before using the 10. version. Not to be. Now I can't get it to work at all. And to tell you the truth I like the old interface of Firefox 7 much better anyway. SO... how do I get 7 back and hopefully resolve this problem so that I don't have to make IE my new browser - which I'm not too crazy to do since I've been using Firefox from day 1...

  • Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox

    For me, the problems described in the thread "Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox? " Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
    are continuing with Java 7 Update 11.
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Firefox 18
    The problem is that "Java(TM) Platform" is missing from the plug-in list.
    I've uninstalled Java 7 Update 11 and reinstalled Java Update 9 which correctly installs the plugin and restores Java functionality which was broken immediately upon installing both Java 10 & 11.

    So why not using Ju11 ? You can workaround the issue. It would sucks but still be safer than using Ju9.
    Also ask Mozilla forums if Firefox has options where to search for plugins.
    Or try 64-bit Firefox.As I explained in both threads ...
    Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
    Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox
    ... neither jre7u10 nor jre7u11 are working ... and they are BOTH broken with the same problem ... "Java(TM) Platform" pliugin is missing from the plug-in list. It cannot be enabled, because it simply is NOT there. A suggestion was made the jre7u12 will be the "fix" for this issue ... so I installed the Update 12 Preview and it sis ALSO broken, no "Java(TM) Platform" in the plug-in list.
    The ONLY Java version that actually works for me is jre7u9.
    As far as installing Firefox 64bit ... I see no future in installing a browser that has been discontinued.
    http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9233976/Mozilla_suspends_work_on_64_bit_Firefox_for_Windows
    Even though Mozilla relented due to backlash, I continued development will be a somewhat low priority.
