J2re blackdown not installing, no mozilla plugin [solved]

I've installed j2re on other distros but I am stuck
have blackdown 1.4.1_01 gcc3.2
extracted / installed it to /opt
created a sym link via mc from the mozilla java plugin to mozilla's plugin folder
but no plugin shows [except the null plugin]
what gives?

The following worked for me...I'm not sure why using mc to create the symlink didn't work, but you may want to try this:
root@wyvern:~# cd /opt/mozilla/lib/mozilla/plugins
root@wyvern:/opt/mozilla/lib/mozilla/plugins# rm libjavaplugin_oji.so
root@wyvern:/opt/mozilla/lib/mozilla/plugins# ln -s /opt/j2sdk/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
And the plugin shows up and works fine in Mozilla.

Firefox could not install the search plugin from "chrome://tnt2toolbar/content/yos.xml" because an engine with the same name already exists.

each time I open Fire Fox I get this error "Firefox could not install the search plugin from "chrome://tnt2toolbar/content/yos.xml" because an engine with the same name already exists." and
I can't search for anything. HELP!!!
Thanks
Tom

That is a problem with an extension that tries to install a search bar. The tnt2toolbar should give you a clue about which extension. You didn't add troubleshooting information with the list of installed extensions, so I can't give a suggestion about which extension is causing this.
You can check for problems with preferences. 
Rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js and user.js files to reset all prefs to the default value.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

J2re is not installed from j2se package

this only happens in windows 2003
(1) using another installer to call j2se 1.4.2_01 installation
(2) select only development tools and jre then install
(3) only development tools gets installed
is this known issue??

i did select j2re1.4.2 during the installation process. when this installation package is launched from antoher installer, j2re1.4.2 is not installed to local machine. and this ONLY occurs in Windows 2003.
do you think this is installshield's bug? or sun's?

Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 will not install on mozilla firefox 27.0.1

I am using Windows XP. I downloaded Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 and installed it on my computer. I opened Mozilla Firefox 27.0.1 and went to Youtube. I clicked on a video to watch and received the following:
The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback.
Get the latest Flash Player.
I opened Control Panel of my computer and saw that Adobe Flash Player is indeed installed. So why is Firefox not using it?

It seems to work in my system. However, to get a reasonable answer you should ask in the Flash forum and not this one.

Firefox29, on a new win7 computer which has never had ff installed, will not install the latest flash plugin from adobe.

I promise to refrain from venting my disgust :-) but when FF 9 blew up the entire web. I had all kinds of issues so I did things like Bill Gates taught us to do. I re-installed windows 7, brand new, formatted HD and all. The very first thing I did was open IE to download FF29 from the mozilla site and it installed. I went to pages I know have fits with flash on purpose, www.nydailynews.com, for instance and got the message that no flash was installed, do I want to install it? Well, yes, I have brand new FF on a brand new computer, so to ahead. Did the usual, installed Flash, shut down, and even rebooted the computer, and golly gee, the web pages tell me I have no flash installed. Its in IE, and of course chrome, and it appears in the installed program control panel, but I can't use flash with FF 29.
I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled win 7, then installed ff 28. Went to adobe and installed their latest flash version, and still no flash in any version of firefox. I also checked the option to never update, but when I rebooted an opend FF29, it miraculously turned into FF29, and of course still does not work with the flash plugin.
I think firefox has had a world of trouble with Adobe Flash for over a year and have hoped for a solution. Basically a browser that cannot run Flash media is totally useless. I wonder why this problem was no addressed and corrected, when instead all the the resources were put into raping my computer and forcing FF29 onto it?
I am not a cry baby, who wants to complain, but will you please fix this issue so I don't have to abandon my favorite browser.. I don't enjoy Chrome, and IE is just not an option for me.
Before you make any moreoverhauls on the UI, could you fix the problems with flash. I find it a little condescending to tell a 25 year user of computers to make sure " you have the latest versions" when in fact I have a brand new install of windows and the very latest from Adobe and Mozilla and they do no wok together, even when I down grade to FF 28, which as I told you, automatically upgrades to FF 29 each time I boot up.
Please help. IF installing the latest Adobe onto a brand new hard drive and install of windows 7 fails, what do you suggest, as the usual " version issue" cannot apply here.
FWIW, I have vista on my laptop with the same problems, the same reinstalls and the same guaranteed latest versions. Since the hd is formtted, there cannot be an residual FF dlls hanging around or in the registry.
I have always seen open source as the way to the future, since the first PC arrived, but its looking like a bad idea.
If you want to build a firefox that works, I will pay for it, so long as I can get help when things break. Browsers are huge in the web, so paying for reliable performance seems like a fair thing to do.
I am sorry, but I am frustrated at the lack of progress towards a solution and really do not wish to be told to see if I am using the latest versions. I have taken every step possible and gone all the way to a brand new machine and FF does not work with flash reliably.
Help? Please?

adobe test page says it is installed. but I said, some pages I visit say I don't have it installed.
I use prefbar ( I delete it and reinstall to make sure its not an issue) usually because it lets me turn off flash and avoid the crashing and locking up but when I check the flash block on prefbar, it says " plugin is not loaded"
I posted from the machine that does not work, but it does not work on my Vista Laptop, or my daughter's computer either. In all cases, I wiped the drives and reinstalled the OS and went directly to Firefox for 29 and to adobe for their latest.
Flash IS installed on my machine... It works in IE, and Chrome, but firefox 29 does not install the flash plugin, even tho the installer says all is well
The reason I went totally clean is to make sure there was no process blocking it or if Java was creating the issue as well. The reality is, I started with a brand new computer, three times, and Flash will not load into Firefox 29 in any case
I have started clean many times now and backed up and installed ff 28. I had no problem with the flash plugin using ff28, . I would have stayed there, but when shut down ff 28 and opened it later, it "magically downgraded to version 29" and i do mean " downgraded -( even tho I had gone into options and said do not install updates.
I am grateful for your attention. I find that web browsers are very important anymore, an a non functional one makes the web a waste. I mentioned www.nydailynews.com and would really not want to make a long list of every page that demands a flash plugin, for they are legion that I don't have, mostly because when the page wants flash, FF locks up. Its will not even let me copy the URL to try and make a list, but the browser is totally locked up and I have to kill the process I get the message I have been getting for about a year that the shockwave plugin has stopped working. There is no shockwave on my computer.
I know it looks like I have two different problems as the plugin does not load, but for instance, when I got it worrking in FF28, it loaded but constantly crashed an locked up the browser with the shockwave message, even tho I never install shockwave any time
Frustration is the word for the day, or the week :-)
Thanks much
Kind regards,
John

What is the problem with addons not installing

We are regularly running into an issue where installing adobe flash player is not installing the browser plugin for both FF and IE. I have used information from a non-english forum post that i forgot to bookmark to try and resolve the problem but can no longer find it. The forum post basically said that sometimes explorer.exe will lock the system32 folder during the install causing it not to copy the browser files.
I have installed and un-installed the following versions of flash
15.0.0.167     IE
15.0.0.152     FF
14.0.0.125     IE and FF
13.0.0.182     IE and FF
I have used the MSI packages to deploy through GPO, Manual install, and MSIEXEC via a 3rd party tool.
I have tried the web installer
I have also tried disabling and removing our secure endpoint solution
we are constantly plagued by the installs completing but never installing the browser plugins. I have been removing the anti-virus, then removing flash player, then starting the installer, then killing explorer.exe- letting the installer run then rebooting and re-installing the AV. THIS ONLY WORKS SOMETIMES AND CAN TAKE 4+ HOURS AT A REMOTE SITE.
I have 500+ computers to maintain flash installs on- I NEED HELP
we are using a mix of ie 7,8,9,10,11 and ff 3,17,24,31 windows XPSP3 windows 7sp1 domain environment.
The problem seems to show up the most on WIN7 IE10 IE11 machines.
We are also constantly battling content our partners post prompting our users to update flash player saying it is out of date. They are unable to do so and we have had this happen even when the install is one patch revision behind the newest- the content is then never delivered and requires our staff to manually update the machine. I am conviced this is a configuration on the web server or page hosting the content- does anyone know how to stop this?

We make a number of packages available specifically for centralized distribution by IT organizations.
Redistributing FlashPlayer requires that you apply for a free distribution license, but it's pretty painless:
Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe
Once your application is approved, you will be granted access to the repository where the distribution packages live.
There's a System Administration Guide here that offers recommendations on how to manage Flash Player distribution in your organization:
Adobe Flash Player Administration Guide for Flash Player | Adobe Developer Connection
If you would like to be notified when security updates are available for Adobe products so that you can push them out to your users in a timely manner, you can sign-up for alerts here:
Adobe - Security Notification Service
Typically we're aligned with Patch Tuesday, but in the event of a 0-day, notifications are definitely handy.

My 3.6.8 Mozilla is not recognised by Mozilla webside when I want to install a plugin, it wants me to update first.

I was trying to install "Better Privacy" plugin but the Mozilla webside show a sign saying the plugin is not avoilable for Firefox 2.0.0.14. And that I should update my browser. I did. It didn't work, the sign didn't disappear. Before updating I had Firefox 3.6 already installed.

Your user agent string, which identifies your version of Firefox has been changed by the megaupload toolbar, it incorrectly makes it appear that you have Firefox 2.0.0.14 instead of 3.6.8
If you reset it, you should then be able to install the add-on. For details see [[Web sites or add-ons incorrectly report incompatible browser]]

J2SDK 1.4.2 plugin not installing

I'm installing the j2sdk_nb cobundle on SuSE 8.2 Linux with Mozilla 1.2.1
The sdk and ide appear to install correctly, but the plugin doesn't:
- I uninstalled old java plugin (blackdown)
- root installation on /opt/j2sdk_nb
- also tried user installation on home
Installation is reported successful but no plugin.
Any ideas?
Michael.

The plugin does not get installed automatically. You have to create a symbolic link from /opt/j2sdk_nb/j2sdk1.4.2/jre/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so to ~/.mozilla/plugins, and then restart Mozilla.

Flash plugin will not install even after installing the latest version Flash

When I go to a site that contains Flash content, it says "A plugin is needed to display this content" and there is a link to install the plugin. Additionally, there is a message at the top of the page that says "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page" with an option to "Install Missing Plugins." I click the link to install the missing plugin, and a dialog box pops up that says "The following plugins are available:" and lists "Adobe Flash Player 11.0.1.152" with a check box next to it. The box is checked, and I click "Next" to install. It goes through the motions, and then tells me that "No plugins were installed." There is a link to manually install the plugin, which takes me to Adobe's Flash download page. I unchecked the box to pair McAfee Security with the download, and downloaded the latest version of Flash (to be honest, I've actually downloaded this exact same version about 10 times today). The dialog box pops up, I save the file, and once it has downloaded, I open the containing folder (my downloads folder). I then close all programs (including Firefox) except for the Windows Explorer folder that I'm going to run the installer from. I double-click on the Flash installer to run the installation. The installation process completes, the installer tells me that the download is successful, and my browser opens back up with an "Installation Successful" message from the Adobe website. Yay! My installation is successful... Orrrrrr not. Navigating back to the page with the Flash media - still have a message saying I need the plugin. Attempt to download plugin again...no dice.
THEN, I go to "Manage my add-ons" thinking maybe I need to enable the plugin. There is no Flash (or Shockwave) plugin listed on any of the menus - it's like it doesn't exist.
I downloaded the latest version of Java because I read somewhere that Flash requires Java to work; I installed the "Add-On Compatibility Reporter" so I could force Java to be enabled. It made no difference whatsoever, as best I can tell.
I also went to Adobe's page where you can see what version of Flash you're running (http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/) and it doesn't even show that I have Flash installed. In Internet Explorer, it does show that I have Flash installed, but it's the previous version (but that is likely due to the fact that I downloaded Flash from Mozilla, not IE, and they use different modes in each browser - so an update that you download from one browser does not necessarily apply to the other browser).
So in summary: I do not know what on earth is wrong here, but I am about as frustrated as I have ever been in my life. I don't know why the Adobe Flash installation is saying it is successful (is it lying to me??), but there is no plugin showing up in my Manage Add-Ons menu, and I have googled every possible combination of the content in this post and have not found a solution that works yet.

NOTE: Just discovered that Adobe is making a bigger mess than any previously.
They now have a 32-bit uninstaller for Flash '''''AND''''' a separate 64-bit uninstaller for Flash. You will need the 64-bit uninstaller for what you had installed above.
*32-bit uninstaller: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_32bit.exe
*64-bit uninstaller: download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_64bit.exe

I keep getting the message "This search engine isn't supported by Firefox and can't be installed" whenever I try to install ANY search plugin on the Mozilla Add-ons website. Why?

No matter which search plugin I choose to install from the list of FireFox search plugins on the Mozilla Add-ons website, I get the same error message - "This search engine isn't supported by FireFox and can't be installed". I tried deleting the 3 files in my profile identified in the article on troubleshooting plugins, but it didn't help. I am running Firefox with administrator privileges, but that doesn't help. The problem appears to be only with search plugins. I can install other extensions that are not search plugins from the Mozilla Add-ons site, but not search plugins. I tried restarting FireFox and rebooting the computer severaltimes, but I keep getting the same error message when I try to install a search plugin.

If you are creating your own search plugins, be aware that you will get this same error if the path to the XML in your action script must be an absolute URL, even if the XML file is in the same location as the page that is pointing to it.
IOW, this will never work:
* window.external.AddSearchProvider('MySearchDefinition.xml');
it must be:
* window.external.AddSearchProvider('http://mysite.example.com/.../MySearchDefinition.xml');

I am using Mandriva Linux now and I have installed Firefox 6 but I could not install Java plugin with it. Can anyone please help me how to install it?

I am using Mandriva Linux now.
But I am using Firefox 3.6.8, but I cannot install java plugin in it.
Can anyone please help me how to install it?

The plugins folder in the Firefox installation folder doesn't exist by default. There is no default plugin in Firefox 4, so that folder would be empty and in thus not included. If you want to use that location then you need to create a plugins folder.
Did you try /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins ?

How to solve "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed"?

Hi all,
I've just started using a new computer with WIndows 8.1 within the last week and have loaded my Adobe Premiere Elements 11.0 software into it.
In trying to view and edit a video I created on my old computer, I got "Media Pending" and "Media Offline" notices as soon as I began. The source files are located on an external drive with a permanent letter designation. I began the process of reconnecting my Project Assets files with the source files this morning, but have now encountered a new roadblock. Each time I try, I get the message "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed." It offers no information or options other than to click "OK," which is not very helpful.
All the source files are located in one folder on my external drive. I have been able to reconnect the JPEGs and the mp3 source files but not the AVI video files.
Here are three screenshots. The first is the "Media Offline" message, the second is the message I receive when I try to reconnect my Project Assets to the source files and the third is a screenshot of the codecs installed on the new computer.
Here is my new computer information:
Model: Del Inspiron 3847
Intel Core i5-4460
CPU @ 3.20 GHz 3.20 GHz
RAM 8 GB
System type: 64-bit, x64-based processor
I hope someone can guide me. What do I need to do to solve this problem?
Thank you.

Thank your for the information supplied.
But, what are the properties of this .avi file that you seek?
Video Compression
Audio Compression
Frame Size
Frame Rate
Interlaced or Progressive
Pixel Aspect Ratio
Right now of prime interest is the video compression that is being wrapped by that AVI wrapper/container.
AVCHD.avi
MotionJPEG.avi
XviD.avi
DviX.avi
other
There are instances were a particular video compression or a particular container/wrapper format is each supported by Premiere Elements, but
not a combo of those particular two. But, in this instance, I suspect this to be a MotionJPEG video codec issue, but your details will
point us to the actual situation, and we will plan troubleshooting strategy from there.

Can not install a plugin in CS4

hi there
i tried to install three plugins on my cs 4 (using x64 SEVEN OS), it finished installing but there were no sign of that plugin in filter menu ...
i tried "Imagenomic Portraiture Plugin v10.1008" but there were same reslut ...
the point is that i can not install any plugin on my CS 4 ...
i also tried opening cs4 32 bit in my x64 OS but there same result too ...
its making me crazy ...
please help ..

Some plug-ins are found under FILTERS, some under IMPORT-EXPORT, some under scripts, possible some under ACTIONS, etc. Have you checked in these odd places as well?
Another possibility is that it is installing under an earlier version of Photoshop if you have one installed.
That excludes the possibility you are dual booting Win-7 and it is, for some reason, installing on the wrong partition.
