Adobe flash player freezes constantly

hi,
my flash player has been constantly freezes whenever i start using it. Sometimes it freeze after 20 mins, sometimes an hour or so. I have tried FAQ already and tried google chrome, firefox and IE but all of them freezes when it comes to flash player.
OS Name
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
System Type
x64-based PC
Processor
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4771 CPU @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
AMD Radeon R9 200 Series
P.S flash player is most updated version.
Your Flash Version
16.0.0.305
Would be great if you could help me out.
Many thanks!

This is what I wrote at another post:
I too have experienced this problem and was hoping to find help here. Another person has experienced a very similar problem, but without response here: Adobe flash player freezes constantly
This all started when I updated to version 16.0.0.305. When I downgrade to version 16.0.0.296, the problem is resolved. However 16.0.0.305 is a bug fix that patches a critical zero day exploit, so I do not want to stick with it for very long.
I hope this is a known issue and Adobe will be releasing a patch for it soon.
Best Regards,

Perhaps it helps you. FWIW, here is the other thread: Re: Flash player crashes continuously in Firefox--tried everything

  • ADOBE FLASH PLAYER FREEZE

    I have to update adobe flash player on my HP Pavilion m7 (with windows 7) but every time I try to download it the installer starts up and freezes (as shown below). I have already deleted the previous version of flash player on my computer and deleted the folder associated with it and tried restarting my computer but that hasn't worked either. HELP ME!

    Use
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • What are the possible reasons for adobe flash player crashing constantly?

    I utilize mixcloud, soundcloud,and podomatic on a daily basis, and recently have been having problems getting these three to play.  I'm not certain if there is a clash between the various plug-ins within my mozilla firefox browser.  The error messages that I have been receiving sometimes acknowledge the problem as a adobe flash player error, a shockwave flash player error, and sometimes as a flash blocker being enable in my browser, which keeps me from receiving any audio playback and the music from downloading onto the page. I'm constantly being asked to reload the page, or request a crash report. Has anyone encounter this problem?  Help!

    Uninstall BOTH Flash Player and Shockwave using the Control panel.
    Reinstall both using Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    and http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
    Reboot
    In Firefox, click Tools>Addons
    Check to be sure BOTH plugins are enabled and the LATEST version

  • Adobe Flash player freezes on RTMPT stream in Ubuntu 10.10

    For the past few months all flash players have been crashing under ubuntu, when I watch a live stream with Flowplayer using RTMPT, on port 80
    88.
    The stream works on Mac OS and Windows Vista.
    The stream starts fine and freezes if I switch between tabs, or even if I don't do anything for a few seconds.
    At the moment I am using the latest flash player - flashplayer10_2_r2_32bit_linux_012611.tar.gz
    My OS is Ubuntu 10.10
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Anton

    Hi dandab…
    Although, I had installed SubInACL <http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=23510>  once without solving my problem, I uninstalled and reinstalled it and Adobe Flash Player 11 is now up and running.  Thank you very much.

  • Adobe Flash Player freezes at 25% on Mac OS X Yosemite????

    I have been trying to update my Adobe Flash Player because it will not let me watch any videos online. Ever since I updated my OS X Yosemite, my computer says my flash player is outdated. I tried to delete the download after about 30 minutes because it froze at 25%. I then redownloaded it and it has been frozen again at 25% for over two hours. I am frustrated and I don't know what else to do!!!!!!!!!

    This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
    If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
    1.)      Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    2.)      Download the stand-alone installer from  http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

  • Adobe Flash player crashes constantly

    Adobe Flash player crashes in all browsers. I have tried disabling hardware acceleration, expanding memory storage, downloading older versions etc, etc.  I have tried IE10, Firefox 17, Chrome, Avant, and Safari, all with the same issues. I am running an I3 processor at 2.93ghz on an ASUS motherboard, 16gig of RAM, 2gig NVidia graphics card. Any ideas?
    Sorry should add that I'm running Windows 8 Pro

    Usually a complete fresh install resolves this.
    Download the following files by right clicking and selecting "Save Link as"
    Flash Player Uninstaller
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Save ALL files to your Downloads folder - DO NOT RUN anything yet.
    Reboot your system.
    BEFORE opening anything else, go to your Downloads folder and run the UNINSTALLER to remove all instances of Flash Player.
    Next, run the ActiveX Installer.
    Lastly, run the Installer for other browsers.
    Once Flash Player is installed go to: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/#sp
    Download BOTH files, the one on the right FIRST by right clicking and selecting "Save target as"... the other by clicking and following the steps to dwonload the  ActiveX installer.

  • Adobe Flash Player freezes up mid-installation.

    I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.
    I successfully downloaded the newest Adobe flash player, but every time it begins to install, it stops when the bar reaches 32% (I have tried to install it five times).
    I have had all browsers and other applications closed.
    Help!

    Hey m_vargas, I followed the troubleshooting page you posted. I uninstalled the Flash Player (and deleted the related folders that I was instructed to get rid of, see this link: Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS). I then downloaded the Flash Player again, and while it was installed, it froze at 25%. See the attached picture:
    Do you have any specific instructions I could try?

    When I watch videos the flash player will freeze and I have to use the task manager to close the video and any other page that may be open. I am using windows 7 Pro 64 bit. This happens quite often

  • Flash Player freezes after a few seconds of playing

    Adobe Flash Player freezes after playing for a few seconds.
    It does this in both Mozilla Firefox and in Google Chrome.
    It does this regardless of how much of the file has been buffered
    (it's not just pausing and waiting for buffer)
    I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed.
    I have the latest version of Mozilla Firefox installed.
    I have the latest version of Google Chrome installed.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Flash Player.
    I've tried disabling hardware accelleration.
    I've tried increasing the buffer size.
    I've tried setting the buffer to 0
    I've tried clearing the appdata cache

    fourstrings411,
    Could you give our 11.4 beta release a try to see if that resolves the playback problem?  If it does not, please see this FAQ for other possible solutions.  In particular, look towards the bottom for instructions on rolling back versions or disabling protected mode.
    How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Why does Firefox freeze every time I try to install Adobe Flash player? I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it with and without the plugin container.

    When I have Adobe Flash player installed and I open Firefox it will freeze up as soon as I open an additional tab other than my home page tab. In order to close Firefox after it freezes I have to use my Windows Task Manager to end process. As soon as I uninstall Adobe Flash player and reboot and then open Firefox it works fine.

    Does it help if you disable the plugin-container process?

    Everytime I try and watch a video that is using Adobe Flash Player my computer completely freezes.
    I am running windows 7, firefox 4 v6, and AFP 10.1. I have tried reinstalling AFP and upgrading to the firefox beta. I first experienced this after installing ADP 10.1 and have uninstalled that program until I can resolve this issue.

    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
    Click Check Now to make sure the currently installed Flash plugin is up to date.
