Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation - using Yahoo Mail
For months I have been getting this error message when using Yahoo mail. Going into the control panel and adding the domain doesn't fix the problem. In fact, Flash Player seems to just ignore any domains I add there (I often get multiple "potentially unsafe" messages as Yahoo loads). Some other web sites also cause this same problem-- for example, YouTube.
I am completely frustrated by this behavior. If there is an open source substitute for Flash Player, I'd be interested to know about it. I'm tired of all these error messages and I'm also tired of constantly having to update Flash Player, which seems to be happening on a weekly basis now. It seems to me that Flash Player has outlived its usefulness and should be done away with because it is way more trouble than it is worth. It is buggy software.
The Flash Global Security Settings Panel
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
is NOT for remote sites, it's for Flash files on YOUR machine that are attempting to connect with Internet loacations.
Add YOUR FILE to the "edit locations" dialog box.
Or, test YOUR file by uploading to a Web server... this security warning will NOT kick in... it's only when testing a Flash file from your local machine that this happens.

Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. Like many others, I am getting this error. However, the people who will be viewing the content do not have access to the internet, nor can they access the Control Panel (computers are locked down) to adjust their Flash Player Settings. How can I resolve this problem for them? Is there a way of saving the files at my end that would prevent this problem at their end? Any help would be appreciated. Lavern
Hi Chris:
Thanks for the fast reply!
I looked. Unfortunately, the people viewing it have their laptops locked down, so cannot access the Internet, Control Panel or Flash Player Settings. So the suggestions there do not help. Anything that you suggest?
Is there anything I can do at the production end to help?
Thanks again for your response. It is a bit of an urgent situation, so I really do appreciate it.

I get a message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
I use Articulate to create my player.html files. When I double click my player.html file I get a message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. Then it shows me the name of a swf file in my files that is trying to communicate with the player.html. Then is say s to let this application communicate with the internet , click settings but that doesnt seem to help. I've tried clicking on all the tabs that are under the settings window that opens up but the problem persists
This is from my Mac, but it's the SAME on Windows.
I'll post a windows screen shot as soon as I reboot my laptop. -
Error error adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation
Dear Sir,
This is regarding the error which i am getting when i open
one perticuler adobe application
"error adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe
operation "
I got one cisco flash presentation i am not able to open the
file because of this error. It would be really helpfull for me if
you could guide how to solve this problem.Awaiting your reply.I
would appreciate your earleast reply
Regards
Lijesh.I'm getting the same problem. No explaination of why, and
downgrading all my security to DANGEROUSLY unsafe levels doesn't
help, nor does setting anything in the settings app. (Have you ever
used a slower application?)
I did find (using a Google search) a blog that pointed me to
the article located at this address:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=13530cdd
I don't know yet if it will help, but it appears to be on the
right track.
Good luck. -

Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation - Facebook
When I look at pictures in facebook and click out of the pictures I have a message that pops up every time and sometimes shuts down Firefox. It says:
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following application on your computer or network: [object] is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location: www.facebook.com. To let this application communicate with the Internet, click settings. You must restate the application after changinn your settings.
I have run my virus scanner and have not picked anything up. My son downloaded music frost and wire frost (or something like those) and I deleted them before he downloaded anything but it somehow changed my settings of the search provider and home page on firefox and now this happens. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance.I think what I would do first, since there is a question on what was downloaded/Installed. Go to Control Panel/Programs & Features and take a look to see if any of those programs are Installed. If you see any that you don't want, remove them from there and restart your computer.
AVG can miss malware and don't find everything. I would go to www.malwarebytes.org and DOWNLOAD and SAVE to your Desktop the Free version. Then update it if it doesn't automatically. Then close the window.
Close all browser windows and Disable AVG. Then open Malwarebytes(MBAM) and run a full scan. If anything is found follow their instructions for removing it. When that is done, run a Quick scan with it.
Thanks,
eidnolb
Also, what pop up are you receiving? Who is it coming from? What Settings are you speaking of? -
Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation: <MySite> is trying to communicate with this internet enabled location. To let this application communicate with the internet click settings.''
I then click settings and the l.yimg.com site is already allowed. This happens each time I go to the page. I went the flash player help section and it referenced a settings pdf which took me back to the same settings panel I first visited. Still the l.ying site is allowed. What to do?

Error: The Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
The .html file plays in Firefox, but the url link does not work. I'm on Mac 10.6.8.
html plays fine in Test Movie/ Flash Pro CS6.
All software is up-to-date including Flash Player just downloaded.
I click on Settings on the error message and Check 'Allow site to save info on this computer'.
Add to Local Storage Settings By Site – Allow. But not fixed.
Also will not work at all in Safari. Says
This page requires Flash Player version 9.0.124 or higher and will not play)
Help. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.I'm new at this. I hope this is what you require:

Remove the message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
I have a flash that I will be sending to different clients on a usb stick. When I run it, it comes up with the following message:
I know I can goto flash player settings> Advanced and add the file in to remove the message but i dont want to have to explain this to the 200+ people. Is there a reg file or anything I can have them run before starting it that will either:
A) remove the pop up all together
or
B) Automatically add the location to there flash player settings.This can be done using the mms.cfg file and distributing that to your users. Take a look at the "The Global FlashPlayerTrust directory" section in our Flash Player 11.9 Admin guide.

I am running Windows 7 SP1, Presenter 7.0.0 version 7328 and Powerpoint 2007 (v12.0.6525.1000.)
My powerpoint file is running in 97-2003 compatibility mode, and I have produced a Presenter project with a link to some web content (a youtube-like video).
In Firefox browser v23.0.1, I can open the Presenter project from it's html starting point, right click on the SWF presentation as it is running, select global settings, on the advanced tab select trusted location settings, enter the website adress to the youtube-like content, and close the browser, reopen it, and the content launches without a Java script alert.
The Chrome browser will not do this. (Version 29.0.1547.76 m) (We are not using IE)
Even setting the web page security permission from the control panel and rebooting will not hold the website in place in the Flash Security settings.
Even going to the web site and editing directly will not work for chrome - ie, here:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
By the term "not hold the setting" I mean upon reboot the website is no longer listed as trusted in global settings, nor in Chrome, nor in Flash security settings via Control Panel in W7. It IS listed in Firefox global settings as trusted, and so the content launches from Firefox, as said.
Firefox is persistant, Chrome is not, and so - is it a buggy Flash Security setting issue? Or a windows/chrome issue? Or my poor local machine....
Anyone have any ideas?

Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation..is this bad?
In the past few days I've been receiving this message when I visit certain sites, it shows briefly and then goes away before I can click on it or take a screen shot. My concern is because I clicked on a bad link (but provided no personal information). I'm worried that a virus of some kind is on my machine. I have a MacBookPro running OS 10.6.8. I was running Firefox 8.0.1 but just updated to 9.0.1.
After I clicked the link, I cleaned out my cookies, history, cache, and active logins. I made sure all my software was up to date. I tried to search for a solution, but I have been unable to determine whether this new error message is bad or not.
Thanks!

If you didn't grant permission to the Flash Player then it probably is OK and nothing went wrong. -
How to bypass "adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation" in IE

I tried it.. doesnot work . I have set up Documents > My Adobe Captivate Projects as the trusted location. This is where I publish my files. -
It happens with firefox since the latest update, every time I refresh a page or open a new page.
Hi ebombardi,
Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-crashes-or-flash-plugin-crashes Flash plugin troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of useful information in there that should help you get to the bottom of your issue.

Adobe flash player has stopped a potentialy unsafe operation
I have just on Dreamweaver add a swf file to my web page and the two scripts files were added, expressinstall. swf and swfobject_ modified.js when I try to open the pages on a pc with xp I get a message (Adobe flash player has stopped a potentialy unsafe operation) The following local app C:\\site\the bead game\mysite\scripts\expressinstall.swf is trying to communicatewith this internet-enabled location fpdownload.macrmedia.com What do I do It plays in the properties panel but not in live view or on browser lab should I Allow this is this normal.
Yes the popup is a local security warning if you test a page containing a Flash <object> that is attempting to communicate with another Web site via the Internet.
You can change the security settings to allow that file to communicate with the Internet the next time you open it by adding the file location on your local machine to the security panel settings:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
Choose "Edit location", "Add location", browse your local machine for the file and confirm your choice. Then you should see that location listed under the "Always trust these files" dialog box.
But yes, this only happens when testing locally and does not come into play when testing from a remote server.

Overiding "Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation"
Hello,
I have an application that is causing flash player to display
the ""Macromedia Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe
operation" warning message and I was wondering if there was a way
to override this w/ a publishing setting or an actionscript System
command.
It's rather crucial that I kill this error message for our
users.
Thanks for your help!
Clem CTabNavigator causes that dialog to crack. When I remove it, dialog doesn't open, add it back in, unsafe dialog pops.
I made it as simple as:
<mx:TabNavigator width="100%" height="100%" />
Removing that one line determines whether dialog opens or not.
Weird.
I created a simple SWF with a panel and tabnavigator on it and attempted to run it but no dialog opens so there is another variable somewhere causing this.
