Adobe Flash plugin keeps reinstalling over and over again and what can I do!

Whenever I open firefox, my computer automatically reinstalls adobe flash player. I will accumulate a dozen or so icons on my desk top and then I throw them all in the trash. I don't know what to do to get it to stop this.

Hi Ricky
Could you please send us the .muse file at [email protected] along with a link to this thread and details such as where the file was stored on external storage etc,
We will check and verify if the file can be repaired or not , If the file is larger than 20Mb you can use a service like Adobe SendNow, Dropbox, WeTransfer, etc.
Thanks,
Sanjit

The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0

The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0, and my Plugin Check link in Addons Manager directs to https://www.mozilla.com/en/404 .
Is this a hack attempt? Is Firefox 3.6 safer than the release channel?

Thankss, but it sounds a bit complicated for me. Maybe I can just reinstall FF?
~And would switching back to FF 3.6 (or whatever the latest Official release is), rather than being on the new Release Channel be safer than FF 12?

Well I have a new macbook pro and there is a software update available and after i update it, it keeps asking for the same thing to update over and over again! What can be done?

The App Store version sometimes gives problems. As you can't install 10.8.4 from the App Store, download and install the Combo edition > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US This edition will work and will update OS X to the most recent version, in that case, 10.8.4

Adobe Flash Plugin Crash in Firefox and IE

About a week ago my firefox and internet explorer browsers haven't been able to play any flash movies. For example, I go to http://www.adobe.com/products/flash.html and click play on the main video section that pops up and the adobe flash plugin has crashed screen appears.
I also uninstalled and reinstalled flash to the newest version and back to version 10.3 as well and both of these things did not fix the problem.
Please let me know if you need any other info to help fix the problem. I appreciate the help!

Some additional information:
I am using firefox 18.0.2.
I can't copy of the text from the "about:support" page in firefox because when I type that in the address bar, firefox immediately crashes.

Despite having up to date Firefox and Flash plugin, I still get a crash message. What can I do?

I am trying to use SiteFusion to build a website. When I go to upload a PSD file I get a "Flash plugin has crashed" message and the ability to select the PSD file and upload it stops. I have checked and I am on the most up to date version of Firefox and Flash plugin running Mac OS 10.6.8 on an Intel Core 2 Duo.

Without knowing what settings you are currently using, its impossible to say what has gone wrong.

Latest Adobe Flash Player keeps asking "Allow" and wont play videos

Hi,
Since the latest update of Adobe Flash Player 17 i cant get videos who depend on it to play anymore. Im running latest Internet Explorer in Windows 7 and all was fine until the latest update of the flash player a couple of days ago.
The issue is that everytime i go to for example Youtube the video is black with the small cross top left, and at the bottom of the browser i get the Windows banner telling me about plugins, and especially Adobe Flash Player. And i have the two options of allowing or allow for all. However when i click any of them the page just refresh and the banner comes up again. The only way ive been able to watch videos is to uninstall the flash player since at least Youtube works without it. Any other site that depends on Adobe Flash Player wont work however. Just the same issue with the banner asking me to allow the flash plugin which never goes away.
I tried uninstalling/reinstalling several times without luck. When i check the browser plugins i see Shockwave/Flash being enabled.
I saw an earlier post by someone on this forum asking about this and the respons was that it had been answered somewhere else, but without a link. I cant find that post so i would be thankful if someone could direct me to it. I have thought that there was something wrong with the latest flash player (v17) since it worked fine since 1 year back when i installed Windows. It just stopped working just now a couple of days ago, at the exact time the new flash installed.
Thank you in advance.

If Flash Player works on some sites and not others, then it's an issue with the site not correctly detecting the presence of Flash Player.
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

What was the latest version of Adobe Flash Player for PowerPC. And where can I download it.

It`s all said in the headline. Hoping for an answer.
Thank You

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 or later is for Snow Leopard onwards.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
(If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, try the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the version 11.5.502.55:)
Download this http://scriptogr.am/nordkril/post/adobe-flash-11.5-for-powerpc to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

Adobe Flash Plugin keeps crashing

I can barely get 10 mins of playing a game on Facebook before I get the above message, it has happened on and off for a few months now but its getting ridiculous to try to play my game now, sometimes not loading at all.
I have noticed that it is only this game that causes it to crash, I watch You Tube and other flash using sites no problems at all.
I will add my info, any help appreciated

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. ''This might not be applicable to issues with games.''
(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 the protected mode feature. It has security benefits, but is not compatible with all systems for some reason. You can disable it by creating or editing a settings file.
The following pages/posts provide different approaches for 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.
Any improvement?

Adobe Flash Plugin Crashing With Browser and Computer Softwares

Windows 8.1 64bit
Chrome 39.0.2171.95
Flash Player 16
I was video chatting when suddenly my flash crashed, now it won't work with anything. Some examples are VLC, Spotify, and Skype, the minute i open these programs they will just become unresponsive. It also does not work on either Chrome or IE (Can't watch youtubes videos or go on certain websites). I have tried uninstalling and doing a clean installation of flash, but that didn't do anything. I have also tried re-installing shockwave, but that did not do anything (I did restart my computer). Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

I did what you asked and it appears to have worked! It has not been crashing to say the least! I will mark as solved create a new one if I experience the problem again. That Guig!

Adobe Flash Plugin

About maybe 4-11 times a day my Adobe Flash Plugin keeps crashing. For some reason is causes my cursor to get stuck or freeze, making me unable to do/click anything. I have to keep shutting down my computer and turning it back on, and 15 mins later it ends up going it again. It really gets annoying. A few weeks ago it ended up doing this 10 times in one day. I contacted Dell and they did something and it worked for a day or two and started yet again. I updated the latest version of Adobe Flash and other updates. What can I do do fix this?

Since updating to Firefox 4 My adobe flash either keeps crashing or when viewing videos that use Flash the sound keeps going but the video freezes for up to 15 seconds, tonight I got the message that the plug in had crashed BUT Firefox crashed totally I had to use CTRL+ALT+DELETE to force it to close BUT when it reopened It was still stuck and no pages would load, I then had the shut down and restart my Windows XP computer, when I restarted Firefox it then came up with the this is embarrassing box and I was able to untick the page that had the problem and it restarted, on 3.6 I had very few problems with Flash crashes but never had video freezing problems but it's regular now with Firefox 4. I have checked for Flash updates and even reinstalled it but to no avail, help please!
