Annoying Flash Player Font Problem

I have a Mac running OSX 10.5.6 and my in browser flash player is displaying a bizarre default font that is nearly unreadable. How do I change this? I've checked to see if the problem exists in both Safari and Firefox and it does.

You don't provide enough information, but my suspicion is that your system is infected with malware.

    9 problem with Chinese language

    Thanks for the helpful posting. I came searching here for advice because I could not get my Flash Player 9 installation to succeed using the trouble-shooting information provided on the Adobe web site, and from experience I have come to know that my best resource in trouble-shooting is to seek the help of other Mac users.
    In following your instructions I discovered that "Enable Flash" was not checked in my preferences, so that was definitely part of the problem. However, I still could not get Flash Player 9 to work, so after doing a Google search I found a posting on Version Tracker (under feedback at the bottom of this page: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/11622 ) that provided the last little bit of instruction I needed to get Flash Player 9 to function properly.
    Before attempting to install Flash Player 9 I had used Adobe's uninstaller to uninstall previous versions, as instructed on the Adobe website. However, AFTER repairing my disk permissions, I needed to restart the computer and run the uninstaller again. After uninstalling I restarted once more, ran the installer and, VOILA!, finally Flash Player 9 worked as it should.

  • Flash Player SurroundSound Problem

    Hy!
    My problem is, that the flash player on my system doesn't
    output the sound on the rear speaker and the subwoofer of my 5.1
    soundsystem - only on the front speaker.
    But the sound-output works on every other player on my
    system. Also the speaker self test of the driver software perfectly
    works.
    The problem remained after a fresh installation of winXP.
    I would really appreciate if someone could help me!!! It's
    annoying listening to pandora.com with poor sound....

    Thx Toni

    Hello Chris, first let me thank you for taking the time to respond to my dilemma.  I am using WIN7 Home Premium and IE9.  It took me a long time to find out where the Flash program reside.  I found them to be in folders on SysWOW64 and System32.  I attempted to delete the files in the Flash folder with the intent to uninstalled Flash so that I could do a fresh install.  I was not able to complete this exercise as I was unable to delete the .ocx file.  It required an administrator to do this.  Although I am the administrator on my system, it would  not delete.  There you have in a nutshell where I am with this problem.  Regards. Patti

  • Flash Player Strange Problem

    On my website (cube-field.com) I added the .swf file but when I start the game only opera have the problem.
    Problem is that when game starts you should press left and right arrow keys but doesn't work only when using Opera browser.
    I've checked this with lots of computers it's the same.
    I can't understand why it happens, is that flash player issue...
    Thanks.

  • Solution for flash player crashing problem

    This fix works pretty well, as all the latest versions of flash crash continuously, on almost every video.
    First, download these two items:
    Flash player Uninstaller
    1. Flash player Uninstaller - http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/support/uninstall_flash_player.exe
    Flash 10.3.183.25
    1. http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
    [Editors Note: I updated the link to point to the Flash Player archives page, instead of the non-Adobe site.  Please, ALWAYS download Flash Player directly from Adobe to ensure you have a valid, authentic copy.  Malware distributors often attempt to trick users into installing malicious files by naming them as legitimate software programs.  Wherever possible, always download software from the author's site.]
    Run the Uninstaller (with browsers closed).
    Then run the new Installer. You should not have problems anymore.
    This version also switches from full screen and back, smoothly (without freakin crashing).
    So far, it is running smooth as a lamb. I have no idea what is wrong with the other versions of flash player, but it is annoying. Even the very latest version crashes.
    I am back to enjoying videos again, hope you will be too. :-)

    Here are  4 links. I hope these are right, never looked at this data before.

    http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-8a3371b0-ead0-4e32-a212-aa3c72121003
    The freezes, crashes, green screen, etc occor basically on any video. for ex https://vimeo.com/50512991 , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfulqRdDbsg
    Basically if i am doing nothing and just let it play a freeze, crash, green screen, etc will occur sooner or later. But skipping through the video will also result in such behavior.
    I have these GT220 drivers (306.23)  installed already.
    hardware acceleration is permanently off indeed.
    Here's a list.  But you know, i think i have ruled out the plugins and addons already because i also used flash on a fresh Firefox install and on a complete new profile without any plugins and addons installed.

  • Flash player installation problem on MAC

    I have repeatedly tried to download and install Flash player v14 for my MacBook Pro and it constantly hangs at the "Retrieving Install" screen never moving past 0%. Then it times out and says the install has failed. I have also completely wiped old versions of Flash from my system (now NO Flash-enabled sites will work at all--even more frustrating).
    Any clues to remedy? Thanks.

    The new Adobe Flash 14 installer does not work when you have an automatic proxy set. I've installed many versions of Flash on Mac without problems, but the new v.14 installer would never even start the download. (Of course the installer dmg would download, but when I ran the installer app, the download of Flash would not start, seemingly hanging at "Retrieving Installation"). I tried the uninstaller, which worked great. Then I tried installing v.13, which also worked fine. But I only got v.14 to install after I ... went to System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Proxies and de-selected Automatic Proxy Configuration. Be sure to make a note of your Automatic Proxy URL, because after installing Flash and going back to the network Preference, I saw that the Automatic Proxy Configuration field was blank. But when I re-entered my APC URL, and clicked to select APC, all was well and I had flash installed while still able to browse external web sites when behind my companies firewall.

  • Is there a fix for a Flash Player compatibility problem?.

    My computer is a imac g4 1.25 Ghz 17 inch flat panel running OS X 10.4.11 and can no longer view anything on the internet that uses the newest version of flash player.  I have tried to upgrade to that version but it won't work on my computer. When I try to download it I get this message "Devices with powerpc processors are no longer supported." Is there a fix for this?

    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, 10.2.152.25, 10.3.x beta, or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, 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, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip 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.
    It works for me.

  • Flash Player installation problems with Windows Embedded (WES/XPe)

    I've deployed 13 HP T5740 Thin Clients at my office, each have Windows Embedded Standard (WES/XPe) and with Internet Explorer 7.
    With limitations on VMWare servers and sound, users need to view webinars on their local client. When I try to install any version of Adobe Flash Player, the installation instantly fails...no reason given.
    Is there a known issue with this? And is there a workaround?

  • Flash Player sound problems on a 5.1 system

    I don't know if i found the right topic for asking for this question, but here it goes.
    I noticed that flash player has this issue with my 5.1 system, when i play music (and i mean any music, like my online radio, played through flash, or music through the site VK.com), the sound is extremely awful. Words actually can't explain it, there is no bass, and the sound, overall, seems to be of very low quality. But it's not. When the same music is played via stereo system (any), it seems to be perfect - with bass and etc.
    Now i'm really confused. It's either a problem of flash, or a problem of somewhat in my system. My guess is that flash simply does not support audio output rather than 2.0. I will be really grateful if anyone will at least point me in the direction of the source of this problem; it makes my life miserable. Thank you.

    Is it possible to have e version of flash player like silverlight which give thepossibility to hear audio on whole 5.1 system?
    I have the following system computer:
    Case: Thermaltake Mozart; PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower 750W; MainBoard: Asrock 4coredual-sata2; Heatsink: ZeroTherm Zen120; CPU: Core2 Extreme X6800 3,2Ghz; RAM: OCZ Platinum DDR400, 2x1 GB; GPU: Sapphire HD3850 AGP; PPU: BFG Ageia; HDD1: WD Caviar Blue WD5000AAKS; HDD2: WD WD2000BB; Monitor: Asus VB175T 17" 5:4; Audio System: danneggiato, in corso di sostituzione; OS: Xp Professional Sp3; Browser: Srware Iron.

  • Flash Player having problems while playing online games on OS X Mavericks

    i use mbp mid 2010 with os x mavericks 10.9.2 and while playing online games, it usually happens some freezes and delays. when i play same game with same browser on windows 7(bootcamp) there is no freeze and delay. i have made lots of search about this and made some optimizations on flash player settings but the problem continues. i use both chrome and firefox on both mavericks and win7 (bootcamp) but having the same problems on mavericks every time. the game is very slow with freeze and delays on mavericks. will adobe make a real effective upgrade about flash player for macs.

    Hmmm... Win 7 will run faster than Mavericks with 8Gb. Even my Vm of 7 runs faster once I get it past all the startup processes.
    It may or may not be a connectivity problen since Windows uses a different protocol, even though it's on the same hardware. Usually though, what affects OS X will affect BootCamp too.
    What browser?

  • Adobe flash player security problem

    Hello bodies
    I have problems with ExternalInterface and navigateToURL,
    How can I avoid flash player to show this box?
    when I've already enabled this setting
    Also I've checked some flash banners and disabled options above for test and they worked fine anyway
    I want to make my script work even if users has disabled those options above.
    I don't want when using ExternalInterface flash player to throw these alerts also
    Please Help

    For you to override that securioty alert you need to add the location to that second interface you showed.  So you could add the "C:\Documents and Settings\George\Desktop" to that lcurrently empty list.
    That security applies to local file usage.  So if you have this file deployed on the internet, people should not have the issue you are having.

  • Adobe Flash Player 10 Problem.

    Alright everyone, this issue has been bugging me for so damn LONG!!!!!
    The problem is:
    I'm trying to make my Adobe Flash Player 10 to work in my Mozilla Firefox because a certain website is asking for my flash player to get updated to 10. I've both installed from the adobe download manager and the direct link, I've also got the ActiveX installed and it's updated and I've unistalled the previous versions, only the flash player 10 is installed. I'm running on a Windows XP and I have no idea how to fix this situation... it won't load whatsoever!
    Please would anyone help me.

    Hi, "finally replying"? LOL, maybe I'm in a different time zone? Just to clarify, contrary to what some may think, I am not an Employee of Adobe nor Microsoft. I am just an end user as yourself, taking my time to help those that are having problems.
    Since you stated that Adobe Flash Player is not working for you in either Internet Explorer or Firefox, then I am going to suggest to you a thread that has the latest instructions by a very knowledgeable person. He has helped many users on this forum.
