Adobe Flash Player and Shockwave Player

In the past, when I goto Adobe's website and choose the "flash and shockwave" test, I could easily see what version were installed. At some point with version 3.2, I guess shockwave was removed. It is no longer in the plugins folder.

Regarding Rosetta emulation for Intel Mac... If you have installed the latest update of shockwave 11 you will need to untick/disable Rosetta as sw 11 is supposed to have resolved the reason Rosetta was needed in the first place. Also, having Rosetta enabled causes web pages running on Java to not work.
I have a problem using Safari with a shockwave dependent web game that I am an administrator for so this problem is something I hope I can somehow fix. Other administrators using Safari are not experiencing the same issues so I'm thinking it's something in my computer causing this issue. I cannot supply the URL for this site as we are working on a beta for a new release of the game and the URL is password protected and I am not free to disclose as per confidentiality agreement with the game's creator.
iMac G5 OS 10.4.11 Safari 3.1.2 Recently uninstalled and installed the latest update added to shockwave 11. I have not yet updated Safari to 3.2.1
I have no crashes while on the site but I have a very annoying delay when entering text into the text field of the game. The characters delay before showing up and I have to hit enter several times to send my text to their server. I used the browser Opera v8 for a few years due to this issue with Safari but after the site was updated to allow for shockwave 11 I had to update Opera and the text issue is even worse than Safari. The game's creator and other admins using Mac are of no help as they are not having the same problem. Is there anything I can do within my system to try to resolve this issue? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

  • Flash Player and Shockwave player Not Recognized

    I have Safair running in Rosetta.
    Some webisites state I need 7 or above Flash Player and that I don't have Shockwave Player- but I do!
    I tested them at the Adobe webiste and it states I have Flash Player 8,0,24,0 and Shockwave l0,1r,11 Successfully installed.

    Susiecat, there is a new Flash Player 9.0 plugin beta that runs natively on Intel Macs and probably will be general release soon. The new Shockwave Player 10.1.1r16 plugin still needs to be run with Safari in Rosetta mode but probably will be ported to run natively on Intel-based Macs soon.

  • I just switched from an HP laptop to a MacAir. I am trying to view videos from within my power points. These were played on Adobe player and shockwave player. Is it safe to install that on a Mac? If not how can I play these?

    I just switched from an HP laptop to a MacAir laptop. I had previously developed a number of powerpoints in which i have video links that require adobe shockwave player. I can no longer play them on the MacAir. Is it safe to download the Adobe player? If not how can I play these videos now?

    Adobe players are safe.  Go to adobe.com and their site should detect the latest version for your hardware.

  • Flash player and shockwave player "not installed"

    I recently downloaded the most current shockwave player and
    flash player, but when I go to a website that requires the program
    it tells me that I need to install the shockwave player/flash
    player. I download each again and have even shut down and rebooted
    to see if that helps but it doesn't, it keeps telling me that the
    shockwave player/flash player is not installed and that I need to
    install it again. Can anyone help me find out if there are any
    settings that might need to be changed on my computer to let them
    run? Customer support was no help what so ever and just told me to
    reinstall.
    Operating System: Windows XP
    Browser: Microsoft IE version 7
    Thank you very much

    I am having the exact same problem. All are Windows XP SP2
    machines. Funny thing is, it seems only to be occurring on a
    certain 'block' of newer computers. anything more than about 8-10
    months old, and the app runs fine. Brand new machines <1 month
    old are fine. I have a number of machines in that 1-8 month-old
    range that are exhibiting the problem. I found this
    here
    but it does not seem to work. Anyone else with this issue?

  • What's the Difference Between Flash Player and Shockwave?

    Hi,
    I was wondering what's the difference between Flash Player
    and Shockwave? And how do you know which one isn't working? I
    downloaded and installed Flash Player successfully but it did say
    that the plug ins might be in another file and may not work
    properly. There is one game that will work, but most everything
    else doesn't. I don't get pictures (like adverts, ect.) in my
    email. What is the problem?

    I have found this site helpful. Adobe has a "Test Adobe
    Shockwave & Flash Players" site. Here is the address:

    Hate to suggest this, but you need to ask in the Flash forum. This forum is for Acrobat.

  • Why does my flash and shockwave player crash

    Whenever I run anything in google chrome with my flash player or shockwave player it says flash or shockwave has crashed. Why?

    You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
    *check for updates for your graphics drive drivers<br>https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
    *disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

    Is there something I should be aware of when attempting to run Adobe Flash (application/x-shockwave-flash)?
    I've been on a couple websites that tell me that I should download the above mentioned plugin.  BUT when I click for it to be installed, I receive the mesage "No suitable plugins were found".  I remember some comments about Flashplayer (?) being a problem and I don't want to screw things up.  I'm running OS X 10.7.4.  Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

    Only download it from a trusted site such as adobe website. It's fine.

    The Norwegian users get my apps in english instead of Norweigan. Desperate for help!
    Regards Ylva

    Sorry but you will not get help here for that problem. This forum is about AIR Help, an online help format produced using AIR, it is not about AIR itself.
    I'll see if I can move it.

    when i wath youtube adobe flash crashed and in instell last firefox and the last adobe flash

    A couple of things:
    * Upgrade to Firefox 13 (you're currently running 12). Select Firefox > Help > About Firefox to upgrade.
    * Check if your Flash plugin is out of date on this page: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/. If it is, follow the instructions on the page for upgrading Flash.
    Hope this helps!

  • Adobe Flash Player and Shockwave crashing has disabled my computer

    I have downloaded a second flash player and it is still the same. Firefox has been crashing daily for a few weeks. I noticed that your adblocker plus was updated 6/4. Since then I have almost no use of firefox, because the Adobe flash player 13.0.r0 and Shockwave crash notices are constantly popping up. Could that update have something to do with why the flash players are not working? Below are an example of the crash details.
    Thanks for the help. I prefer your browser, but this has made it non-functioning.
    In trying to fix it, a window came up that asked would I like to change it back to a previous working image, which was Windows XP. Although this computer is Windows 7, I clicked the box yes, and said I wanted it to work like Windows XP. I see in your Operating System below, that it reads Windows Xp, but this computer is actually Windows 7. I can't find that menu to change unclick and change it back, so that it is working as Windows 7.

    AdBlock Plus isn't maintained or connected to Mozilla as they didn't develop it. ABP and Flash don't interfere with each other except on same cases that ABP blocks Flash content.
    You can Try disabling Hardware Acceleration. <br>
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.

    If that doesn't work try Try to disable Protected Mode in Flash 11.3 and above by adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to the Flash "mms.cfg" file located in one of these locations: [46]
    (Windows 32bit) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    (Windows 64bit) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    For example, on a Windows 7 64-bit system, open the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, copy the file "mms.cfg" to the desktop, open it in Notepad, add a new line <code>ProtectedMode=0 </code> and then close Notepad, saving your changes. Next, go back to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, rename the original file to "mms.cfgBAK" (to save it as a backup) and then drag and drop in the modified "mms.cfg" file from the desktop. [47] [48] [49]
    Note: To re-enable Flash Protected Mode, either restore a backup of the original mms.cfg file, if you saved one, or else re-edit the mms.cfg file to remove the <code>ProtectedMode=0 l</code> line you added. Updating Flash Player or installing a newer version does not automatically re-enable Protected Mode
    Flash has been a pain since day 1 and Mozilla is currently working to replace Flash with Shumway. Unfortunately it's in the Nightly channel, doesn't come activated automatically and it isn't quite ready for normal usage. I just tested Nightly yesterday with Shumway and it wouldn't play.
