Adobe Flash Player stops working whenever Flash or Rich Media content is loaded.  Can anyone help?

Whenever I launch a browser, I get a message telling me "Adobe Flash Player 11.5 r502 has stopped working."  Additional message says Data Execution Prevention has closed Flash Player.   I have tried all the applicable fixes suggested on the Flash Player help page (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html).
Flash Player version: 11.5.502.135  and .146
OS: Vista Home Prem, sp2, 32-bit
Browser: Firefox 18.0 and IE 9
Anyone else have this problem?

1st)    Click on the apple at the top left corner of your screen. Fourth option down, system preferences click this. Once system preferences opens up adobe flashplayer should be listed on the very bottom row, click this. Once adobe preferences are open make sure you are on the storage tab (listed accross the top), make sure "allow site to save information on this computer" is bulleted. Next click on the "local storage settings by site...". Once you click that, check to see if youtube.com is listed in the box. If not then click the + symbol at the bottom left. Manually enter www.youtube.com. Close out of everything.
2nd)    Launch safari, look to the very top left corner of your screen. You'll see the word "Safari" just to the right of the Apple logo, click on this and go down to preferences. Next, go to the security tab accross the top. Make sure there is a tick/check mark in the "Allow Plug-ins" option. If it is, click "Manage website settings...". Then on the left-hand column select Flash Player. Then off to the right-hand pane, make sure that youtube.com is listed and that its set to Allow. Quit and re-open Safari.
All of these steps or at least some portion of this should get it operational. If not, post back... more things we can do.

  • Adobe flash player stopped working properly please help

    i'm using adobe flash player version10.0.32.18 on vista, and everytime i open my facebook application, i often encountered adobe flash player stopped working properly, then the page will recover, then after few minutes it will stopped then recover again. please someone help me how to solve this problem.

    Hi, Thanks. Your Flash Player files and the SWO(if it is vs 10.0.45.2) are correct. Are you having problems on other sites
    or just that one? Are you getting a message that is different than "you need to update your Flash Player?"
    Many times it is the websites or if you are getting this from a game, then that can be causing the problem. I haven't been
    able to determine if the websites that have NOT updated to support the latest Flash Player are just putting out a generic
    message or not.  You might want to check with the site to see if they support FP vs 10.0.45.2.
    You may have an add on that is conflicting also, it is hard to tell. Some anti-virus programs have add ons that may conflict.
    Since several users are having problems with Facebook, Farmville, Zynga, etc. my opinion is that it is not your computer.
    One that posted here is waiting on a reply.
    Thanks,

  • Flash Player stopped working for Chrome in Windows 8

    Randomly, the flash player stopped working for Chrome. I run a Windows 8 system. Everytime I go to a website that uses the flash plugin (youtube, video streaming websites) a bar pops up telling me that the plug in will only work in the desktop. I've never encountered this problem before.
    I have:
    1. Checked to see if I needed updates. I'm all updated.
    2. Reinstalled Chrome to try and fix it, to no avail.
    Additionally, when I view the Flash Player settings from my control panel, under Advanced Settings, it says that the plug in version is not installed. However, I'm unable to click on that or click on the settings that say "Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)".
    What is going on? I really disllike running Chrome from the desktop and would like this to be fixed.

    Chrome uses its own "proprietary" build of Flash Player, so you WON'T see any plugin in your control panel for it. You verify that it's enabled by typing "chrome://plugins" in your Chrome address bar. I'd provide a screenshot but I've REMOVED Chroime from EVERY system I have because it uses WAY TOO MUCH processor and  it was launching by itself in the background on my Win 8 machine. I won't tolerate that out of ANY software.

  • Linux - after update to firefox 5 64-bit flash player stopped working

    After updating firefox 5 (from stable repo) the flash player stopped working.
    I have had installed the adobe flash player square (64 bit) - by following http://queleimporta.com/en/finally-adobe-releases-native-64-bit-flash-10-for-linux/ ...
    The .so library is still on its place(/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so), though firefox does not seem to have flash player installed.
    before update to firefox 5 it worked
    system is Xubuntu 10.04

    Finally I've found out that it's possible to install flash from lucid repositories (which works... named 'flashplugin installer')... I've never noticed that before... So sorry for asking stupid question and thanks to anyone who spend some time even only by reading this thread.
    //EDIT: so question 2 - how to tag the topic as solved? :)

  • Flash player stops working after a few days.

    I'm recently having issues with flash player on IE and Firefox each time a new version is released. This time the flash player stops working after a few days without any reasons. I have asked two other questions and I have tried the solutions but this time they are not working:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4617987#4617987
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4548211#4548211
    Could anyone tell me what the reason is?
    I also need links providing Flash player for IE and Firefox which are always updated. I need to first download the installer then install it offline not install it directly from adobe website.
    Please help me solve this once forever!

  • My flash player stops working after a reboot.

    My flash player stops working after a reboot. i have flash 12.0.044 installed on a dell laptop with windows 7. The flash works fine until the next day when I restart my computer. If I go to control panel / programs and features I notice that the program is still there but the icon has turned blank. If I re-install it works fine until the next reboot. I have asked the IT services company we work with and they have completely ‘rebuild’ my computer. (Installed new windows etc etc) and still the problem won’t go away.  I am at a loss. Who can help? Thank you so much in advance. Duncan

    Outlook doesn't need Flash Player.
