Are Java and Flash (or any plugin; as a matter of fact) supported on Linux Firefox 8? I don't see any lib or plugins directory in the install directory.

I don't see any plugin support on installing Linux Firefox 8 tar.bz2 package. I've tried symlinking libnpjp2.so and libflashplayer.so to the isntall directory but Firefox doesn't seem to recognize those. I don't find any mention of disabling plugin support (Java and Flash specifically) on Firefox 8 release notes. Is anybody else facing this issue?

Thanks. Creating a "plugins' directory inside the profile directory, and putting symlinks to plugin files inside the directory solved the problem

    Google show that you have to cut what you want to print and then paste it into a new app and print from that app.

  • Tutorials on the Apple Website play in Safari and Chrome, but not always in Firefox. Java and Flash plug ins are up to date.

    I was trying to play the Time Machine video tutorial on the Apple Website (I have an imac 10.6.6) and it won't play in Firefox, but it will in Safari and Chrome. This has happened before but then seemed to fix itself. Other videos (Youtube for eg.) play fine. All plugs (Java and Flash) are up to date. Just wondering why this could happen.

    I have had this problem for a few days, no sound in Firefox, but IE and WMP (offline) have sound, this is a Firefox ONLY problem, so the volumes are all set correctly and the drivers and needed files are there, I've tried every fix that people have suggested on Google like checking the flash player settings, creating the "missing.reg" registry file and importing it, etc...
    nothing works, I may just have to switch to Safari or Chrome, I watch a lot of video online (Youtube, ESPN3, NFL.com, etc.) so this is a huge problem...

  • Java and Flash not working ONLY in Safari

    Ok, so Java and flash stopped working in Safari on my 10.6.8 system. It seems a recent update caused a problem and all of the normal items I have gone through have made it worse or not helped.
    Java is not working in Safari (My account or guest account)

         http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp " attempted to load Java content, but Java is unavailable or not installed."
         http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/  Error "Missing plugin"

    Java DOES work in Chrome and Firefox
         http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp
              Java SE 6 Update 31
              Flash - 11,2,202,235 installed
    Able to use apps and other items online that are not working in Safari.
    Have downloaded and installed the following and done the following
         Ran software update
         Verified Java and Java Script are enabled via Safari > Preferences > Security
         Re-installed Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8
         Reinstalled current version of flash
         Looked around and deleted all plist, and java folders in library locations (user and main system)
         Cleared out metadata folders
         Reset Safari several times
         Java Preferences
              Cleared all cache
              Made sure no old versions there (2 entereis)
              Reset all defaults
              Removed any blocked items
    Current Java version per terminal
    java -version
    java version "1.6.0_31"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_31-b04-415-10M3646)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.6-b01-415, mixed mode)
    So - Java is up and working - works in Chrome and Firefox. Have reinstalled both from current versions. Reset all browser cache. Issue follows Safari. Normally installing these and trying again works. I do not know what other things to reset or clear out.

    Yes, I got distracted for a moment with something, came back and I didn't finish reading the OP's original post, I have since edited mine.
    BTW, the Mozilla plug-in checker is basically useless for Safari users, since have of those I have have no status, but work in Safari:
    I don't know the causes for the "Research" one's, why there isn't a link or why it doesn't update the checker,
    But at least it's infomative, as vulnerable plug-ins are responsible for MacDefender and Flashback malware attacks.
    Someone with a lot of plug-ins should be running Firefox and NoScript, as your very exposed to multiple attack vectors from any of those plug-ins, which is the purpose of the web site, to get the word out about outdated plug-ins with potential security issues.

  • Java and Flash broken

    Forgive me if this is a redundant topic.
    For about a month now, both Safari and Firefox have been unable to play video in any player nor display any other flash based medium. While Safari displays a blank area where the player would be, Firefox usually displays this message:
    "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player."
    I know I have all of the latest updates for both Java and Flash. Any ideas? I've had a similar problem with my iMac in recent years, except instead of a blank space there would be a QuickTime logo with '?' in the center. This resolved itself after many months.
    For the time being I can switch to Opera to view video, but if you've used Opera before you can understand my pain a desperation to have Safari or Firefox back.

    Have you tried repairing permissions, or setting up a new User Account with Flash and JavaScript installed and testing there to see if the problem persists? Have you considered re-applying the 10.5.4 Combo Update (after repairing permissions)?

  • How do I get a refund?  I have tried to use this converter to change a PDF to a word document or excel document three of four times and it always fails..  I want my money back but don't see any way to communicate with Adobe.

    How do I get a refund?  I have tried to use this converter to change a PDF to a word document or excel document three of four times and it always fails..  I want my money back but don't see any way to communicate with Adobe.  i really just want my money back.  Very disappointed.  Also disappointed that it is so hard to find a way to communicate with Adobe that I have to resort to asking this question in this forum. 

    You need to use the CHAT link in support to reach Adobe staff. Be sure you know the product name you are trying to cancel, Adobe have lots of products, several converters etc. I think it is ExportPDF you have, most likely.

    Hi,
    If you want to remove the add-ins of Office 2010 programs, you need to remove it from control panel.
    For example, if you use Excel, please try to follow the link to delete the add-ins:
