Adobe plugin crashes in Firefox

Help! I keep getting an Adobe plugin has crashed messages, my computer is very slow, especially in games. I've had my connection checked, and also my computer. Neither has a problem. I've sent multiple crash reports, as suggested, and they say to install an older version of Flash Player. I currently use the most recent version of both Firefox and Adobe Flash Player (11.3.300.271?). Every time I try to install an older version, I get a window that says I'm not installing the latest version, and to check the Adobe web page for the most recent update! I'm stuck in a loop with no apparent way out! Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

Does anyone actually read the problem? The fix is to load a previous version of shockwave, but your website won't let us!! I'm having the same problem, I HAVE THE MOST RECENT VERSION OF BOTH SHOCKWAVE AND FIREFOX, yet shockwave crashes multiple times a day, sometimes multiple times an hour! The only way that I can use my laptop, at all, is to restart it everytime it crashes. Please get a fix for this!

Firefox keeps crashing, and adobe plugin crashing, too?

So, for a few days now, Firefox has been extremely touchy. It would crash at random times, but now, it crashes whenever I try to type something. It has gotten progressively worse. Also, I cannot play videos, as "Adobe Plugin has crashed". This isn't just once or twice. This is every video on every site. Please help!
If it's of any correlation, I was getting bluescreens and such earlier.

I am a webdesigner and developer. I always use firefox for building sites. One day I opened Firefox and from that day is crashing all the time. I open firefox and after 30 seconds will crash for sure ... also when I am building my site [http://www.betsearch.gr Stoixima] on my local enviroment is crashing too when I preview my site ... I unistall it and later install again and is keep crashing ... all the other browsers play good ...
I am very upset cause I love FIREFOX ... specially when I am creating my websites ...

When I attempt to attach a file to Juno email, I get Adobe plugin crash about 50% of time. I can end firefox, restart juno and attach file will work on first attempt.

For later attach attempts, the plugin crashes. This has been ongoing problem for several months. About 3-4 months ago, there was a firefox update version that fixed this problem. However, it has occurred again for most recent 2 or 3 Firefox updates. I have changed Adobe setting dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to "-1" but this does not eliminate the problem. Please provide location for log files, crash reports, etc., that I might find and provide to developers for problem resolution. Thank you.

Anyone know how to read a crash report?
I can print with Lightroom, there is nothing wrong with the printer, or the file. But I want to print with Photoshop without a crash. Besides, Lightroom doesn't give me access to all of my print settings.
Hoping someone can help, I"m exasperated.....

How to find out WHY Flash Player 11.2.202.236 plugins crash in Firefox ESR 10.0.6 on 64-bit Linux

Flash crashes dozens of times a day and I am trying to figure out WHY.
I have the recommended latest player & browser for my operating system.
The only diagnostic information I have is that the crashes seem to occur when a few tabs are open with videos loading in them and when any one video is closed, flash then locks up the browser for about 30 seconds, and then ALL the videos that were loading in separate tabs are dumped & say that the plugin crashed.
Details about the system from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
1. Flash player version: 11.2.202.236
2. Operating System: Linux 2.6.32-279.2.1.el6.x86_64 (64-bit)
3. Browser: Firefox Firefox ESR 10.0.6
This is the correct set of components.
Debugging, I've modified the about:config dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to any value of 10 seconds to 45 seconds (the default), but it doesn't seem to make a difference in the number of crashes.
Any idea how to get more diagnostic information?

Unfortunately, there's nothing in "/var/crash" after the numerous flash crashes so I'm not sure where to look next.
The 'dmesg' command reports:
npviewer.bin[16884]: segfault at 340 ip 00007f26bda22ab0 sp 00007fffa8abbe78 error 6 in libflashplayer.so[7f26bd68d000+1179000]
Bringing up the CentOS 6 "Applications->System Tools->System Monitor", I see the numerous Flash crashes appear to have some relationship with "npviewer.bin", which uses the "/usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so" shared object module and which has numerous "open files", one of which is "/home/<username>/.xsession-errors".
Looking at "/home/<username>/.xsession-errors", we find these lines, which may be useful.
Here are some excerpted errors & warnings:

Adobe Plugin Crash

My Adobe Flasher Player plugin keeps crashing and I get a warning message : A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flasher Player to run slowly.If it continues your computer may become unresponsive.
Do you want to abort this script.Yes or No.When the plugin crashes in the lower left hand corner it shows Javascript :LoadPuzzle0; ?

First I'd check to see if your system is functioning normally. Run both a virus and malware scan (www.malwarebytes.org). If scripts are timing out on your system, especially on sites like FarmVille that are visited hundreds of thousands of times a day, then I suspect something is going on specific to your setup.
What browser and OS are you using? Have you tried different browsers? What version of Flash Player are you using?
Flash Player Version
Thanks,
Chris

Shockwave plugin crash. FIREFOX SUCKS

Continuous Shockwave Plugin crashes while browsing. Browser is up-to-date. Firefox is up-to-date.  SCREW IT. I've deleted firefox and now use IE solely.

This has been ongoing for about a year now, on multiple PC's running firefox. They've had a LOT of time to get this sorted. No, I would not throw out my car, but in the case of an Internet browser, where there are tons of free and better choices, yes, I'd throw it out. As I just did.

Quicktime Plugin crashes on Firefox 11&12. No problem with IE 8

I keep getting notifications that my quicktime plugin has crashed. I have the latest Quicktime Edition 7.7.1 and Firefox 12 installed. This does not happen with IE 8. OS is Windows XP Pro SP3.
This is the website on which Firefox plugin crashes for me consistently. http://www.janalea.com/. It's my realtors website.

Quicktime plugin is to be honest a piece of crap, slows down Firefox and causes problems like this. As Quicktime is maintained by Apple, you should complain to them.
Personally, I recommend you disable it completely and install [http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ VLC media player], it has a plugin component that you can use instead.

FF crashes regularly, Adobe plugins crash FF/hang FF,

Scrolling will cause crash, clicking a link will cause crash, opening new tab will cause crash, and just sitting quietly and looking at the screen without doing anything will cause crash.
Adobe plugins won't open and cause crashes and hangs. (And the instructions in FF Support to go to Adobe and "click on logo" is garbage- there is no logo on the page linked in FF.)
FF is the latest version, being run on Windows 7 Home Premium
Using Avast, Spybot S&D, Malwarebytes.
Stand-alone Adobe products work fine

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!

Adobe plugin crash - one user profile only

HI
I have been using adobe flash with no problems until yesterday. I go onto facebook and the page loads but when I go to "home " on facebook a message states flash plugin has crashed reload again. I was using IE but loaded Mozilla firefox. I uninstalled flash and reloaded and still same problem.
I logged on to another user name on the same laptop and the problem did not occur. How can I fix this ? Should I just create a new user ?

I'd try Refreshing Firefox first:
Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings | Firefox Help
If that doesn't work, you might give the Firefox ESR a spin. Mozilla has been experimenting on their own recently with a number of changes that impact Flash.
Firefox Extended Support Release FAQ — Mozilla
If that doesn't work, do you have better results with Google Chrome, or are you seeing similar problems across multiple browsers?

Adobe flash crashes in Firefox but not with Internet Explorer

I don't wish to go back to an earlier version of Adobe flash as the earlier version caused other problems.i.e. with RealPlayer. Why is it that the latest Adobe flash works perfectly with Internet Explorer but will not work with Firefox.
Is there any way I can get it to work with Firefox, rather than when the problem occurs having to download IE and start again?
Would appreciate your advice. Thanks

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?

FireFox opens & Adobe Flash Plugin crashes in a WOT "automatic" download.

WOT “automatically downloads” on a separate tab every time I start FireFox. Almost every time I start FireFox the Adobe Flash Plugin crashes in the WOT automatic download and ties up my PC. The problem does not occur with Internet-Explorer which I seldom use.
1- I removed WOT and re-installed it, but it continued the same.
2- I reinstalled the Adobe Flash Plugin which I always keep up to date.
3- Please work this out.
4- Why must WOT automatically download on a separate tab every time I start FireFox? It is very annoying.
Thank you for all you do. Have a blessed day, Steve Lahey.

Firefox 16.0.1 Crashes, Not Responding with Unresponsive Script Warnings and Adobe Flash Plugin Crashes

Hello,
I'm experiencing some issues with Firefox 16.0.1 which I had also experienced with Firefox 15.0.1.
On numerous occasions Firefox has crashed while attempting to access a website link contained in an AOL e-mail message.
Unrelated to that issue, Firefox has hung up frequently with associated unresponsive script warnings and occasionally with the Adobe Flash Plugin crashing. Some of the unresponsive script warnings are:

I've reset Firefox and disabled all the plugins and yet these problems persist.
What are those script warnings actually telling me and are there any recommendations on how to resolve these issues?
Thank you,
Mike

You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
