I still cannot view flash players in firefox after uninstalling and reinstalling firefox and flash multiple times. how do i fix this issue perminantly?

I can go into chrome without any issues and watch any video without any problem. the second i get into firefox nothing works. i have had this issue on and off for years. i really do not see why you cannot fix this if everybody else can. i have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and flash player multiple times. nothing seems to work. I am truly getting really tired of this same problem year after year, i stay with firefox because you are privacy conscience and are being more so consistently. i do not know what other details to tell you other than this just keeps happening and it is making it very tough to do anything on firefox when i cannot use a simple thing such as flash player. as i said, if the other browsers can fix this i see no reason why firefox cannot year after year. i hope there is a simple fix for this problem because it has basically halted a lot of my work on the net as i will no longer use google or microsoft. thank you

Firefox does not play videos. That is the job of the plugins.

  • Just updated to Firefox 8, can only connect 1 User at a time, how can I fix this so both users can connect to Firefox at the same time??

    I have just upgraded to Firefox 8. I have 2 user accounts on my computer. Since the upgrade, only 1 user can access Firefox at a time. I am able to use IE on 1 and Firefox on the other. I have to close Firefox on 1 user before I can open it on the 2nd.

    I also have gone back to V 7, which fixed the issue. I have stopped the automatic updates so the issue doesn't hapen again.

  • Firefox on my laptop will not allow me to open multiple tabs, how can I fix this issue?

    I usually use firefox and yesterday was downloading a photoshop program called gimp. all of a sudden after downloading it, firefox stops allowing me to open multiple tabs. I click on file and new tab, but it still will not work.

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • I use a web site called ACRIS- up until yesterday I could access all parts of the site, including calling up images of deeds. Now I can no longer get the images via firefox, but can them via windows explorer. Why? How do I fix this?

    I use a web site called ACRIS- it allows me to access NYC Finance dept records- specifically images of deeds. Up until yesterday I had no problem. Then without any apparent reason I could access all parts of the site, but could not access the deed images. First I thought it was a problem on their end, which sometimes happens, but after waiting 24 hours I was still having the problem. Then I tried windows explorer and it worked without any problem. How do I fix this?

    Hi jeffbeal,
    First question I would ask is what has changed recently? Did you add any new extensions or add-ons?
    I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

    You are getting this message because you are attempting to create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.2) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account on your PC.

  • HT201077 I accidentally grabed my My Photo Stream from My Pictures & transfered it to a FOB. Now I can't view any of the pictures from my phone & I cant up load any. How do I fix this?

    I accidentally grabed my My Photo Stream from My Pictures & transfered it to a FOB. I put it back as soon as I realized. Now I can't view any of the pictures from my phone & I cant up load any. How do I fix this?

    Thanks, Eric. I'm not sure what I should be checking using your suggestion--as I said, I'm an utter novice with the iMac. However,  I saw a reference to problems with the Library entries, so I checked mine and the iWork files were missing, something confirmed when I checked the crash log. In desperation, I did another software update, and that seems to have fixed the problem completely. Now wondering if I dare upgrade to Lion!

  • Firefox won't start, but possible to troubleshoot as compatibility. how can I fix this without running compatibility?

    2014 April 29, Firefox works fine but April 30 it won't start, the possible to work is running compatibility (troubleshoot). Is there any solution for this without running compatibility or without formatting computer? And works during 2014 April 29.
    I've already uninstall anti virus
    I try also restore and repair windows
    I've also uninstall and reinstall firefox.
    still doesn't work :(

    If you had an update of Firefox, the firewall may be the problem.<BR><BR>
    This problem occurs when your Internet security program was set to trust the
    previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as
    trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet
    again:<BR><BR>
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version)<BR><BR>
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back. For detailed instructions, see Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.

  • Firefox on Win 7 64 won't shutdown when closed. how do I fix this?

    On Win 7 64 bit Home Premium version my Firefox won't shutdown when I close it. This started since the upgrade to version 29. It is very annoying to have to go to the task manager and stop the process in there every time I exit Firefox. How to I correct this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but that does not solve the problem.

    From what I have been reading from other posts on this forum, the issue may
    be caused by the clear history settings.
    Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
    Then '''Tools > Options > Privacy'''.
    The button next to '''History''', select '''Use Custom Settings'''.
    At the bottom of the page, turn on '''Clear History When Firefox Closes.'''
    At the far right, press the '''Settings''' button. Turn on ONLY '''Cache''' and
    '''Form And Search History''' leaving the others off.
    This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

  • Firefox downloads a file with the wrong file extension. How can I fix this?

    The title says it all. When I download files, it comes out with the wrong extension, not sure what extension it comes out as.
    It actually just comes out as "file."
    How can I fix this? Is there something in about:config I can tweak to eliminate this error?

    Hi dartz!
    This type of problems are not related with the browser you are using, in this case, Firefox. This issues are the consequence of the way that the website "packed" the file.
    What you should do is download the file, locate the file, give right click on the file and select "Rename". Now, don't change the name!!! Just add "." and then the extension that you wanted. Example, you download the file "norwegianwood", after renaming it, it should read "norwegianwood.srt".
    Hope this works for you, take care!

  • Only firefox is reporting my SSL certificate as revoked. How can I fix this issue?

    I have recently re-keyed and re-installed an SSL certificate on my server (https://beta.alicorsolutions.com:2087) running WHM on linux.
    The SSL certificate is passing all the 3rd party SSL tests (https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=beta.alicorsolutions.com) and works perfectly fine in Chrome and IE. However, in Firefox I get an error page that says: "Peer's Certificate has been revoked. Error code: sec_error_revoked_certificate".
    After doing some searching, I can see that the problem is specific to firefox and the only way everyone else seems to be fixing the problem is by turning off OCSP under Preferences > Advanced > Validation.
    This of course is not an acceptable long-term solution. I need to fix this issue as quickly as possible, ay help at all would be appreciated. Please let me know if there's any other information I can provide that would assist you in solving this issue.

    hello jcsarda, it's only working in chrome because its security settings are more relaxed per default (when you set chrome to check for certificate revokation in settings > advanced > HTTPS/SSL it shows the same error for me). i don't know about IE...
