Adobe Flash Plug-in CRASHES EVERY TIME!

I've updated it, removed/re-installed and nothing helps. Have submitted reports both to Mozilla and Adobe. There is obviously a major new patch/fix required.
Any advice? Thanks

Thank you for submitting crash reports. To share yours with forum volunteers, we need you to post some of the crash IDs. Please check the support article "[[Firefox Crashes]]" (especially the last section) for steps to get those crash IDs, and then post some of the recent ones here.
This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
(1) If you have any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media make sure they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.
(2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) 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 protected mode feature
This involves creating or editing a settings file. 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 (exiting and starting Firefox up again might help) before this takes effect.

Adobe Flash plug-in crashes whenever I try to broadcast on tinychat.

I click on "Start Broadcasting" and choose my webcam, then I click "Webcam Only" and then "Finish" It hangs for a moment and then crashes with the message "Adobe flash plugin has crashed reload this page to try again. (I've also tried to do mic and webcam rather than "webcam only" and it still crashes. For the record I am using Windows Vista (32-bit).
I've done all of these things:
-Used the official Adobe uninstaller to uninstall flash player
-Reinstalled with the latest version
-Updated to the latest version of Firefox
-Ran a registry cleaner (RegCure, I ran it four times to be sure) and fixed the errors that were found
-Ran Windows update and HP update to check for available updates
-Went to device manager and check for updates for video and sound drivers
-Restarted the computer
And yet it still crashes. Anyone have any other ideas?

You are currently using Adobe Flash 10.1 r85, the latest release is 10.1 r102
One method of installing the latest version is to use the manual installers, for details see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller

Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again
The message, "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed," is shown when the Flash plugin stops working unexpectedly. Reloading the page will often get the video, game or animation to play again.
If the Flash plugin continues to crash, updating to the latest version of Flash should fix the issue. This article explains how to update Flash and other possible solutions.
Plugin crash notification Fx21
Update Flash
The latest version of the Flash plugin should perform better and crash less often. To check if Flash is up to date, visit Mozilla's Plugin Check page. If it says that Flash needs to be updated, install the latest version manually using the steps below.
Go to Adobe's Flash Player download page and download the Flash installer.
Caution: Adobe's download page may include a checkbox for optional software (such as Google Chrome or McAfee Security Scan) that is selected by default. If you do not clear the checkbox before downloading, that software will be installed on your computer when you open the Flash installer.
When the download has finished, close Firefox.
Click the menu button New Fx Menu and then click Exit Close 29
Open the Flash installer file you downloaded and follow the instructions.
Note: If you are having problems with the Flash installer from Adobe's download page, you can use this Flash Player installer link to directly download the full installer.
Disable hardware acceleration in Flash
Many Flash problems can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings (Adobe's Flash Player Help - Display Settings page has details). To disable hardware acceleration in Flash:
Go to this Adobe Flash Player Help page.
Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page, then click on 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.
fpSettings1.PNG
Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
Restart Firefox.
Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems
The Adobe Flash Player browser plugin lets you view video and animated content in Firefox. This article has information about testing, updating, uninstalling and troubleshooting the Adobe Flash plugin.
Note: The Firefox Software Update feature does not update installed plugins. See the Adobe Security bulletins and advisories page for information about security and stability issues affecting Adobe Flash Player and other Adobe products.
Testing Flash
Visit Adobe's Test Page to see if the Flash plugin is installed and working properly. If it tells you that Flash is not installed, follow the instructions in the Updating Flash section below to install the Flash plugin.
Updating Flash
The Flash plugin automatically updates itself by default. If Mozilla's Plugin Check page says that Flash is outdated and you don't want to wait for the automatic update, you can update Flash manually by downloading and installing the latest version from Adobe.
Go to Adobe's Flash Player download page and download the Flash installer.
Caution: Adobe's download page may include a checkbox for optional software (such as Google Chrome or McAfee Security Scan) that is selected by default. If you do not clear the checkbox before downloading, that software will be installed on your computer when you open the Flash installer.
When the download has finished, close Firefox.
Click the menu button New Fx Menu and then click Exit Close 29
Open the Flash installer file you downloaded and follow the instructions.
Note: If you are having problems with the Flash installer from Adobe's download page, you can use this Flash Player installer link to directly download the full installer.
Uninstalling Flash
For instructions on uninstalling Flash, see Adobe's help page, Uninstall Flash Player - Windows
Note: Running Adobe's uninstaller will remove Flash from all browsers where it is not built-in, including Internet Explorer. You will be prompted to reinstall Flash when you visit a page that requires it, such as Adobe's Test Page.
Troubleshooting
Flash plugin not working
If Adobe's Test Page does not show that Flash is working even though you have installed the latest version, your Flash plugin may be disabled. To make sure that Flash is enabled,
Click the menu button New Fx Menu and choose Add-ons. The Add-ons Manager tab will open.
In the Add-ons Manager tab, select the Plugins panel.
If the Flash plugin is disabled, select Always Activate in its drop-down menu.
Flash works in Internet Explorer or Chrome but not in Firefox
There are three different types of Flash Players: an ActiveX version for Internet Explorer, a Chrome version built-in the browser and a plugin version for Firefox and some other browsers. If you want Flash to work in Firefox you must install the plugin version, as explained above.
The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed
If you see this message instead of Flash content, see Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again.
Unresponsive plugin warning
Firefox will show you a warning dialog if the Flash plugin is taking longer then expected:
warning-unresponsive-plugin
See the article Warning Unresponsive plugin - What it means and how to fix it for solutions and workarounds.
Cannot view full screen Flash videos
See Flash videos won't play full screen.
Playing Flash videos makes Firefox hang
If Firefox stops responding or if the Flash plugin hangs or stops working when playing Flash videos or games, try these solutions:
Pause or stop Flash in other tabs. You may need to close those tabs.
Update Flash. See the Updating Flash section above for instructions.
Disable hardware acceleration in Flash using these steps:
Go to this Adobe Flash Player Help page.
Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page, then click on 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.
fpSettings1.PNG
Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
Restart Firefox.
Update your graphics drivers. See Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL for details.
Other Flash problems and solutions
Your Flash issue could be caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration in Firefox. See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems to narrow down the cause.
Other solutions for general audio and video problems are listed in the Fix common audio and video issues article.
If Flash content does not work, acts strangely, causes errors, or if you see a notice that you need to update Flash (for instance, at Mozilla's Plugin Check) even after installing the latest Flash version, uninstall and reinstall Flash.

Adobe Flash plug-in crashed ! Help?!...please.

Okay, my Firefox has crashed apparently. So it says 'The Adobe Flash plug-in has crashed'. Okay, so what do I do? I tried fixing it on my own, scene I am usually good with this kind of problems, and what I researched it tells me to click the little 'send crash report' link. But it doesn't show and says 'no crash report' so like HELP?!...please.

AVG causes adobe flash player to crash every browser I use

As my thread subject says, when I have the free version of AVG installed it causes adobe flash to crash any web browser I use. I have tried reinstalling everything and ran registry cleaners and nothing I do seems to fix it. If I uninstall AVG, adobe flash no longer crashes my browsers. But as soon as I put AVG back on, bam - the problem is back. Also if I uninstall adobe flash while AVG is installed, I can view any website just fine. Does anyone have any idea what this problem may be? Any help as to how to fix this will be appreciated.

Ok, Stay in IE and we'll get it cleaned up. Go to Control Panel>Add Remove and find Adobe Download Manager and Remove it. Then just close Add/Remove and close Control Panel. Go back to Tools>Manage Add ons and do this:
Safe Search, if it is Enabled , with the mouse, hi light it, go down where it says Enabled/Disabled and click on DISABLE.
Do the same thing with Adobe DLM, Windows Messenger, Windows Live Sign in Helper.
Make note of anything that IS enabled. It should only be Shockwave Flash Object, you want that ENABLED
Click ok
Then I want you to go to www.sunmicrosystems and download and install Java, you will see on the top left side a coffee cup (steaming:-) and the word JAVA, click on that and follow the instructions.
After that reboot your computer and post back if any problem.
WATCH THAT YOU DON'T PICK UP ANY TOOLBARS FROM THE JAVA DOWNLOAD, CHECK CAREFULLY
While you are doing that, I'm going to have a coffee:-)

Installed Adobe Flash Plug-in Player many time,Safari5.1 not Recognizing Flash Player

I have asked and requested for help for my last Safari 5.1 Problem and I did get some help but the person didn't finish helping me or didn't answer my questions the second time around, I am hoping that I get a complete and full help and answers to my other Problems that I am still having with Safari 5.1 on my Snowleopard.
My Continuing Problem that I am having is; when I had updated my Snowleopard to Safari 5.1 I was having a Flashplayer Plug-in problem so I updated to the new current Adobe Flash Player, after doing the update, My safari 5.1 isn't recognizing the Flash Player Plug-in whenever I go to a web site that uses or has a embeded Flash Plug-in in it Safari doesn't reconize the installed Flash Player Plug-in and doesn't play the embeded Plug-in on the web site, I have installed the Flash Player several times I even installed the Shockwave Plug-in Player that too hasn't helped Safari 5.1 to recognize the Flash Player Plug-in.
After installing the Flash Player Plug-in Safari 5.1 How come Safari isn't Recognizing my Flash Player?
Does anyone have any suggestions that can help me solve this Problem and get Safar backi to start recognizing the Flash Player Plug-in again?
If anyone can help me and has a solution to my Problem and I have more questions will that person please get back to me? The other person didn't get back to me when I had more questions from my last Problem and my last problem still isn't solved.
Mrs. Trisha Foster

Tisha, I too get quite bent out of shape when not a single soul in this forum gives me the courtesy of a reply. It's especially bothersome to me since I know that many literally "live" in this forum only to answer questions and rake up thousands of "points" to show off. And yet, when a really tough question comes, no answers are to be found.
Although I don't have the solution you're looking for, I would like to chime in with my own Safari 5.1 experience in hopes it can help you better decide on what to do (which may be to downgrade to an earlier version of Safari or use Google Chrome instead).
You are using Safari 5.1 under Snow Leopard while I am using Safari 5.1 under Lion. You have a problem whereby the Flash plugin doesn't load at all, whereas the problem I have is that the Flash plugin loads but is basically unusable.
When using Safari 5.1 and the latest version Flash plugin under Lion, my web pages partly lock-up or freeze after I display Flash video content. Specifically, I cannot scroll up or down by using gestures on my Apple mouse. And after using gestures to scroll up or down if I then resize the browser window, suddenly the place that I scrolled to (and couldn't see originally) appears. I have to quit Safari 5.1 and relaunch it to get it working again. But if I encounter another Flash object, the same partial lockup occurs again. I am using Click-to-Flash to allow me to continue using Safari, but every now and then I forget that this problem will occur and I click to view a Flash video and it locks up again.
I have installed the latest version of Flash player, but to no avail. It's a very serious problem that did not happen in Safari 5.0 under OS X Snow Leopard.
Furthermore, if I switch to Google's CHROME or another browser under OS X Lion, I do not have this problem at all.
What this means is, even if you are able to get the Flash plugin to load in Safari 5.1, will your web pages lock up as they do in my case? In any case, I believe it shows that Mr. Job's hatred of Flash in general has led Safari engineers utterly ignore how the new Safari 5.1 plays with Flash. It's a travesty and an absolute crying shame. I say this as someone who is not necessarily a fan of Flash. But until Flash is completely dead on the web, Apple should support it on their desktop computers under any flavor of OS X. To avoid doing that is nothing more than a slap in the face to all owners of Mac desktop or notebook computers. And having owned a Mac since the 128k in 1984, I don't say these words lightheartedly either.

Hi Sam,
Doing repair disc permissions, normally should not create problems, reason being this is Apple's own built-in utility.
I am guessing there might have been permission issues already on your computer and repair disk permission tried to resolve that problem. But if the problem is severe these things may happen.
I would suggest you first you may try it again if that didn't resolve you should contact Apple support. They may help to repair the permissions.
