Adobe flash 14 (latest version) crashes everytime in Firefox 30.0

I updated from Firefox 28 to Firefox 30 today. Nowhere that needs Adobe Flash will work. not Youtube or even Speakeasy. Just the dreaded "Flash plugin has crashed" notification. Everything worked in 28 and add on manager says my plugin is up to date but nothing works in 30.

This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common reasons for Flash problems in Firefox. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
(1) Make sure all recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them.
(2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Flash
See this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
(3) Disable ''the Flash player plugin's'' protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)
The following pages/posts provide different ways to do that:
* Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
* Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209
* Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078
Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.

  • I already updated Adobe Flash to latest version, why can't Firefox detect it?

    Through a company IT rep, he helped to update my Adobe Flash Player already along with installing Firefox 3.6
    Now why does the firefox claim "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video" when the Flash Player was already updated to the latest (i.e. attempt to view youtube videos for testing).

    There are two different versions of Flash, the ActiveX version which is used by Internet Explorer and the Plugin version which most other browsers use, including Firefox. If both are installed, two versions Adobe Flash should appear in Add / Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Adobe Flash updated latest--11,4,402,278--Is Constantly Crashing & I do sens Report Every Single Time-What's going on?

    I have just updated my Adobe Flash to latest version (11,4,402,278) b/c of numerous crashing problems. Since I have installed the new version it's crashing even more. And, yes I have done all the install-uninstall with last version & it didn't work then. It's not just with videos, it's with anything, article I'm reading,etc. Am tired of waiting from seconds to many minutes for the gray frown guy to come on to send crash report. And by constant I mean like 5x's in last 45min. I would think with the Numerous reports I send in someone could email me as to what to do.

  • 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?

    Reloading the page will often get the video, game or animation to play again.
    If Flash continues to crash, updating to the latest version of Flash should fix the issue.
    As this has been happening to you for a long time, try this too...
    Go to this Flash help page on adobe.com.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html?promoid=ISMRY
    Right-click on the box that lists your Flash player version and then click Settings… in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel.
    Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
    Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    Restart Firefox.

  • You Tube not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after latest update

    You Tube and other sites are not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after latest update for both. Adobe Flash is working on other sites but not You tube and those sites that may have embedded You Tube videos, I'm not sure.
    Adobe Flash does not crash and no error message is showing. All that shows is a dark screen for the Flash video. Right clicking the screen shows only a non-clickable 'Movie not loaded' and the clickable link to the Adobe home page.
    I have spent an hour trying things as suggested for past problems similar to this but none have helped.
    I have sent sad face letting you know what I think of the latest update because of this which says pretty much the same thing as I have said here.
    I have no further info but if I had some input and queries form you I might be able to provide more.

    I'm not sure how to remove the 12.xxx version,. I don't understand why it is there, usually updates over wirte the old one as far as I know. I don't know where to find it.
    pref .js deleted.
    I could not find a user.js
    I disabled hardware acceleration on one of them, not sure which and I don't remember how I did it but think it must have been on the flash.
    No idea what protected mode is
    no new profile, I've never done this.
    Ok, did what you have said as much as I could. I have been fidgeting with things now for a couple hours. After doing a CCleaner and Registry cleanse, turning off and restarting the computer, the videos are now p-laying.
    I would still like to know how to find and get rid of the duplicate Flash plug in though if you would't mind.
    Thanks for the help.

  • 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

  • Now that I was sent by Microsoft to your download update site to get the latest version 4.0.1, Firefox crashes (becomes non-responsive) before opening any site page I try. When will you fix this problem?

    For two weeks I have tried to use your automatic download of the latest version 4.0.1. It would sit there telling me it is trying to connect to the download computer for hours, several times overnight. Then, it became non-responsive and error messages were sent to Microsoft who directed me to your download site. After downloading your latest version several times, the new page would open. After selecting a bookmarked site, it would open (sometimes only partially) but when I tried to scroll down, it would freeze up and become non-responsive, again prompting error messages to Microsoft. They must be getting a kick out of this. I'm running a Gateway 7200S desktop with Microsoft XP and Intel single range Pentium 4 processor. I have been using your Mozilla Firefox as my default browser for several years with much satisfaction. Unfortunately, whatever upgrades were made have rendered it useless for me.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.
