Adobe flash 11.4 keeps crashing in Firefox--I see fixes for 11. 3 but not for 11.4; HELP!

Every time I open Firefox, I get the popup message that says "Adobe flash player 11.4 r402 has stopped working." It pops up over and over and I have to cancel it just to perform a simple function in Firefox. I'm not even trying to view a video through Flash Player. And if I try to, it doesn't work, anyway.
I don't know what to do, but I've basically stopped using Firefox altogether, and that's not what you want. Please help!

First, try to update to Flash 11.5. [[Use plugins to play audio, video, games and more#w_how-to-update-plugins|How to update plugins]]. Then, if Flash still crashes, follow the directions for Flash 11.3 and see if they stop the 11.5 crashes. [[Flash 11.3 crashes]]

  • Adobe Flash and Shockwave keep crashing in Firefox and Chrome.

    The problem just started last night.
    Firefox 6.0.2
    Chrome13.0.782.220
    I have uninstalled, then rebooted and reinstalled Flash Player, Shockwave, and plug-in for Firefox.
    After installing it worked and then stopped working again about an hour ago.
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit OS
    Service Pack 1
    NVidia GT220 driver is up to date.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Using FireFox 10.0.2 and Flash Player 11.1.102.62 (or any other combination that I have tried so far) on Windows 7 64 bit, after a few seconds of playing a YouTube video the video freezes up and after a few more seconds I get the frowny face with the message that Flash Player has crashed.  Several people have recommended disabling hardware acceleration but that didn't help.  The only way I can get it to play YouTube videos is to go to FireFox Plugins and disable the Shockwave plugin.  Now I can play YouTube videos, but some videos that come to me from other platforms pop up with the message:  "This plugin is disabled."
    I used to be able to play all videos with no problem up to about two weeks ago. I don't want to have to restore to a previous time if I don't have to.
    Also, when I use Internet Explorer I have no problems playing either YouTube of those from other sources.
    I have seen a lot of questions on this problem but no good answers that have worked for me.
    BTW, on each crash I clicked on reload and submit report, but don't know if it goes anywhere.

  • MY ADOBE FLASH 11.6 KEEPS CRASHING HOW DO I FIX

    MY ADOBE FLASH  11.6 KEEPS CRASHING KEEPS CRASHING VERY ANNOYING! HOW DO I FIX THIS?

    To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
    Operating   system  
    Browser  
    Flash   Player version
    When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details.  Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
    Windows  
    Mac
    Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player.  I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform.  If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing.  You can verify the user of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
    HTML5   video  
    Non-HTML5 video

  • My Adobe Flash Player Plugin keeps crashing. Annoying

    I play games from the developer Zynga and I keep getting Adobe Flash Player plugin has crashed. I downloaded Mozilla Firefox thinking that I would have more luck with it than IE. Not so far. What can I do to correct this?

  • Adobe Flash Plug In keeps crashing, extension runs slowly and have to abort script on Pandora Radio website.

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

  • Cannot print from Adobe Flash Player even though there is a print option. IE works fine but not Firefox.

    I found a site that uses Adobe Flash Player to show pictures and there is a "Print" selection/icon but when selecting from that the picture does not print, but it does when using Internet Explorer.

    Firefox must not be open when the Flash installer is run. Use the following information and instructions.....
    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
    *an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only
    *a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox
    *On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
    '''''You do not appear to have the Plugin version for Firefox installed. ''''' If you did, in Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash ''(version)''". If "Shockwave Flash" is there and is disabled, click the "Enable" button.
    Check your Plugins often --> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    *only the most popular/used Plugins are known by this page
    *page will detect only installed, '''''enabled''''' Plugins
    '''<u>Install or update Adobe Flash</u>'''<br />
    #'''<u>Using Firefox</u>''', go to the following link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later. Un-check any items on that page that you do not want to download (i.e., "McAfee Security Scan Plus":
    #*http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    #When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
    #Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
    #*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
    #*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
    #*The installation is quick.
    #Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    #To update/install the ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''', repeat the process, '''<u>but use IE to go to the above website</u>'''.

  • Adobe Flash always likes to crash in firefox

    So I used to be able to watch two different youtube videos or at least have two different flash programs open on two different monitors. Now whenever I have a video open on one monitor, I can't even click on the video loaded in the other monitor without it crashing. If I'm playing a flash game on one monitor and watching youtube on the other, I can't click on the game without flash freezing, too. Yes, hardware acceleration is off.
    Here is the crash report.
    https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/fbf957bd-5028-4de0-abda-780ea2150405

    I tried to test two youtube videos on two monitors and it did not crash. I am guessing its os related. (This is the first screenshot)
    I then tested one in fullscreen and a game and with farmville in the other screen. This is where I started to see some issues. I did find a work around in the meantime however. I watched the youtube video in HTML5 player and loaded farmvill before starting the video in fullscreen.

  • Adobe Flash Plug-in keeps crashing

Continue and 2. Stop Plug-in.  Neither seems to help.  I have searched the web and tried to even go in and update the mms.cfg file by adding ProtectedMode=0, and that hasn't helped.
