Anything that runs flash is blank

Flash player is clearly installed on my computer however when ever I try to run something that uses flash it just shows up as a black or white box. I also get no error message. My computer runs Windows 7 and the browsers I use are IE, Firefox, and Chrome. All of these browsers do not work. Please help

Ok, I'm a bit confused.  When you boot into safe mode, does it work?  If so, then it's definitely a service/utility that is being loaded on boot (in normal mode) that is conflicting.  My first inclination is to suspect the virus/security software that you have installed.
Normally, I'd use the tool "msconfig" to turn different items off until I discovered the culprit.  However, sometimes this isn't enough for a virus scanner.  So, to start I'd try temporarily uninstalling your virus/security software, then rebooting into normal mode to see if that makes a difference.
If it fixes the problem, then I'd recommend contacting the security company to see what they'd recommend.
If it still occurs, then try using msconfig to selectively disable apps/services until you've found the problem.

  • I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image".  I don't know what this is and I cannot see anything that requires Flash Player.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image".  I don't know what that is, but I cannot view anything that requires flash player.  What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for your help, but that didn't do any good either.  I have been double clicking from the download files, double clicking on the "install adobe flash player", closing the anti virus, closing Safari, watching the install progress and clicking finish.  It indicates that "flash player" is installed, but every time I try to view something requiring flash player, it tells me I must download it.  It shows up in the "system preference"  and from there I can make some changes, but it still won't let me view anything requiring "flash player".   It does not show up in my apps like Adobe Reader does.  It shows up in the "downloaded files" section of "Finder".  I'm getting really perplexed over my inability to get this right.

  • What app would you recommend to use for using sites that run flash player ???.

    Want to start using some different sites that use flash player, any suggestions as to what app to install on my iPad 2 ????.

    About.com has a decent list of browsers available for the iPad that will help you play Flash content.

  • I can't open anything that uses flash player in Firefox, I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it and no luck! but flash works fine on my seamonkey browser, can anyone please HELP me?

    None of the flash games will work on FF, I have even uninstalled FF and reinstalled it, I have disabled QuickTime, I have uninstalled Adobe flash and reinstalled it and still NOTHING! Flash works fine on Seamonkey though

    Check that plugin scanning is turned on (it should be by default). If it is turned off Firefox will not search the Windows registry for details of plugins that it can use.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''plugin.scan.plid.all''', if the value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change it to '''true'''
    If it was set to false, re-start Firefox to see if the Flash plugin is now available.
    Also make sure that you have installed the version of Flash used by Firefox. You should have it because SeaMonkey is using it, but if the Flash plugin is in SeaMonkey's own plugins folder Firefox may not be able to see it.
    Download the latest plugin from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/completion/?installer=Flash_Player_10.2_for_Windows_-_Other_Browsers and run it to install the version of Flash used by Firefox, this will install it in the default location so that Firefox should be able to find it.

  • Actionscript that runs Flash animation

    Hi
    I tried out the 101 flash tutorial here -
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/flash/articles/flacs3_createfla_02.html
    The animation works fine (the circle moves from left to right
    thanks
    to a "motion tween") but can I see the actionScript code for
    that?
    The question is essentially, if you make a flash animation
    using this
    GUI editor, can you see the actionScript commands that drive
    this
    animation? e.g. I have Alias Maya before and that generates
    MEL script
    code for all animations so you can control your animation via
    the GUI
    editor in addition to a script editor also
    This would be useful if you could switch between GUI view and
    command-editor view for your animation - I could not locate
    this on
    the net ...
    Thanks

  • Does your boss think anything that runs on electricity is in IT's domain?

    It's not like i'm rude to them. I always tell them it's not really an IT issue and direct them to the person who can probably take care of it. If I were to keep fixing non-IT issues, than why am I even working in IT? I'm a master of IT, not a damn handyman.

    As the title says, does anyone have this going on? I'll have people tell me that their wall outlet isn't working (PC and IT equipment are working just fine) from time to time. Your telling me this why?? People really don't understand what IT is and it can get very frustrating..

  • Cannot accept anything that requires permission.

    Whenever I go to anything that uses Flash and requires permission (For example, permission to save on my hard drive, access my webcam, mic, etc etc), I can't press accept or deny. I can tab over to them and highlight + press enter, but that doesn't do anything either. The buttons are not working.

    I have the same problem, I found a temporary fix atleast for me this works. I you open task manager and end the svchost that is using the most memory it will allow access it switches the theme in my windows 7 from aero to basic and the screen flashes and i also have acecess to the flash box after that.
    If you use "svchost viewer" you can see what each svchost is controlling and under mine the process to end in task manager is the svchost that is using these.
    AudioEndpointBuilder, CscService, hidserv, HomeGroupListener, IPBusEnum, Netman, PcaSvc, SysMain, TrkWks, UxSms, wudfsvc,
    Edit:
    After further investigation I pin pointed the service causing the issue directly or indirectly . Type services.msc in the start menu > run and end the service
    "Desktop Window Manager Session Manager" im not sure why yet but that allows the flash player settigs to be modified after that ( camera access and such) I think all that service really does is control the aero desktop. Which makes me wonder if its not a addon or theme that wont allow the flash player box to be modified. Ill try to figure out more but as a temporary fix just disable the above service from starting with windows and i think that will do it however i havent tested that yet.

  • Can't watch videos or see apps that use flash, or silverlight

    I just got this iPod Touch today, why can't i watch or see anything that uses flash, or silverlight
    Is there anyway to watch or see flash, and silverlight using iPod Touch?
    Thanks!

    Because no iDevices support Flash or Silverlight,  There is the SkyFire browser that displays/converts Flash on a special site.  For more info on Flash look at the previous posts on the right under the hading "More Like This"  Also see:

  • How can i get my Ipad to download videos that run on flash

    how can I get my IPad to download videos that run on flash

    You don't.
    Adobe does not make a flash player for ipad.
    Do a forum search as this is discussed over and over and over and over and over again on these forums.

  • Why are most of the apps (anything that has to search) on my iphone4 and ipad (1) running very slow (or not at all) since iOS5 update...esp google. Search seems to go quickly, but then when I try to open a link..nothing. I have turned off icloud.

    I am having the same problem. Did turning off iCloud work? Did you just turn everything off or did you actually delete the account off your iPod?

  • I have an iMac running OX 10.5.8 I need a portable external harddrive to back it up before updating the software to Yosemite but I can't find anything that doesn't require you to be running at least OX 10.6.  Is there a suitable hard drive?

    I have an iMac running OX 10.5.8
    I need a portable external hard drive to back it up before updating the software to Yosemite but I can't find anything that doesn't require you to be running at least OX 10.6.  Is there a suitable hard drive?  I'm not very technical and wouldn't know how to do any formatting so I want it to be very basic so that I can just plug it in.  500GB should be more than adequate.

    Correct.  When you purchase devices, they would have stated the OS they needed to work, on the box.  This can be overlooked, but it is very important to check when purchasing. 
    You current OS, is so old, that they technology build into the new devices, is not something your OS understands.  It didn't exist when your OS was created, and therefore you need to upgrade the OS to work with the newer technology of these devices.
    10.6 software is not downloadable.  You must purchase a DVD disc.  You can order it from the on-line apple store

  • I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini.  Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead."  The mouse still works but can't type.  If I restart, everything is fine again.  Is there anything that will fix this problem?

    I am running Mac OS X Lion on a brand new Mini.  Every now and then, my keyboard goes "dead."  The mouse still works but I can't type.  If I restart, everything is fine again.  Is there anything that will fix this problem?
    Also, I am trying to connect my Mini from the mini-Displayport to the Displayport of my Dell U2410 monitor.  The image is very grainy,even though it is set to the correct resolution: 1920 X 1200 at 60Hz.  If I use HDMI to VGA input, the image is much clearer.  Is there a way to get the Displayport to work?

    I'm having exactly the same keyboard issue.  Certainly nothing has ever enhanced my concentration while coding like suddenly becoming unable to type.
    I'm seeing a great many devicemgr and rake errors in my system log.  I don't know if they're related.  How 'bout you?
    If you're unfamiliar with the system log…
    Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    If necessary, choose View > Show Log List.
    system.log is at the top of the FILES section.
    Try searching it for hot words like DEBUG, FATAL, and aborted.
    I've found some discussions that would tend to indicate my errors are postGres related – I'm running OS X server.

  • Flash swf that runs on every browser except in Firefox. Can anyone help me please?

    Hello.
    I have an flash swf in a site that runs on every browser except in Firefox. I get an warning telling me that the page requires a newer version of flash player but i already have the 10,0,32,18 and the swf was published for flash player 9.
    Can anyone help me please?

    The figures you mention only make sense on your intranet.  Are you still using the same wireless router.  The verizon one is somewhat limited as far as max wireless-n performace.  For one thing it only has a 2.4 radio.   I like many people who wanted wireless-n performance before they even added a wireless-n gigabit router, have my own handling my wireless-n network.
