"Blocked plug-in" wont go away

On my macbook there is a gray box in the top right corner that says "blocked plug-in". If you click it it doesn't do anything. Its been there for about a week now. How do i get it to go away?

Uninstall the old Flash plugin versions > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
And turn OFF Extensions in Sarfari > Prerferences > Extensions. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. Get your lock button fixed then you can restore your phone.

Blocked plug in message won't go away

I have installed the new version of flash player several times. I still get the blocked plug in message.

What OS X version, and
asking multiple times won't get you a faster answer or a different answer. Only post once, please.

When I try to watch YouTube videos or do homework online, it says that there is a Blocked Plug-in. How can I make this go away?

How can I un-block the plug-in? What is a plug-in?

A "plug-in" is an applet that is integrated with your we browser to add a feature to that browser if it didn't come with it natively. For example, YouTube may require a specific plug-in in order to play videos within the browser. A blocked plug-in could be for a number of reasons. I would suggest starting by first removing, and then, reinstalling the problematic plug-in through the browser's administrative interface.

My ipod touch 4g is turning up or down by itself, and the speaker icon wont go away

Okay this first started yesterdy morning, when my ipod touch4g was acting funny it wouldnt turn off, so i thought if i plugged it in it would fix itself, so i thought restoring would help it,made it worse it started turning off and on apple logo came on a few times, now i got it where i can turn it off and on okay but now i cant seem to controle the volume, and the speaker icon is showing and wont go away, and when i try turning it down when i play a song or a video, it will turn back up by itself, or it will turn down by itself,
what would be the best way to fix this without taking it in? the nearest apple store is dallas and i dont wanna spend all the money in gas to go up there, and then see what arm and leg i gotta cut off to get them to fix it.
should i restore and resync it one more time or should i start saving for a new ipod along with the new computer im needing?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Blocked plug-in sign on safari after trying repeatedly to download new version of flash

downloaded the new flash, and now it wont work on safari. Never had a problem with it before. I tried installing the unistaller but can't find it in downloads( I made sure that downloads went to the download folder). i tried all the other links for downloading flash-they didnt work. it does work on google crome. I prefer safari, so I would like it to work on that browser. I get the blocked (plug-in) sign.
NPAPI Plug-in version 15.0.0.152 is installed
PPAPI Plug-in is not installed

If you want to update the OS, you initiate the download through the AppStore. That said, someone tried this yesterday and it didn't resolve the issue for them.
We tested the upgrade scenario and blocklist functionality on a MacOS 10.6.8 machine and are unable to reproduce the symptoms, but we believe that they exist. We don't know what the common denominator is yet, though.
I'm wondering if a complete uninstall and reinstall of Flash Player might solve it:
Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS
Then run the installer again.

How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away.

Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins installed?
Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto. Is there anything installed?

Hangs, severe slowness and lock-ups running Firefox 27.0 / 28.0 on Windows XP / Is it possible to block plug-in container?

Been experiencing severe slowness and lock-ups with Firefox of late, which ends with a sudden drop in memory usage and me having to repeatedly shut it down through Task Manager. I have created a new profile and disabled hardware acceleration. I have tried disabling all plug-ins and extensions, yet I noticed that at times (not always) plug-in container was still an active process, which I don't understand. Why would it be active when there are no enabled plug-ins? I also noticed that when plug-in container is not active (showing under Processes in Task Manager) I do not have this problem and Firefox runs normally? I need to block plug-in container. Please help.

I have just tried on Windows 7 and used process explorer on that. I would expect the results to be displayed in a similar manner on Windows XP.
Plugin-container is shown as being run from Firefox, and in turn if I mouse over or left click the line for plugin-container .exe then under ''command line'' it tells me what is running, in my case at this instance it is Flashplayer and so it displays
.... \Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_12_0_0_77.dll .... plugin ....
It is identifying it is FlashPlayer
The worry with your apparently unknown operation is that within the plugin-container it may be safe but if plugin-container is disabled maybe it could be malware and cause a problem.

I have a Apple Mac desktop and recently was unable to access any YouTube, movies, videos, etc because a "Blocked Plug-in" message comes up with no error message. It asks to upload Abode Reader, but upon completion of this the message is the same.

I have a Apple Mac desktop and recently can no longer access Youtube, videos, movies, etc because I get a message reading "Blocked Plug-in". There's no error message but it does say to upload Abode Flash Player and the problem will be solved. I do this but it doesn't fix the problem. What am I doing wrong?

if you already downloaded the adobe flash player onto your mac and still getting that message that means you need to finish the installation of the flash player
you do this by opening a finder window and going to your downloads, find the flash player in here and then double click on it and follow the prompts to complete the installation.
after this is completed you will need to completely quit out of the web browser you're using then reopen it for the change to take affect and your issue should be resolved. if it's not you need to contact adobe their number is 800 642-3623.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 6
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 7
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 8
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

For the past week, I am unable to view videos. The page comes up with this comment: "Blocked plug-in" and it suggests that I download the latest version of Flash player. I have downloaded that and still get the same comment. Please help.

I have an iMac11.2 and am running Mac OS 10.6.8. I have not had a problem viewing videos until the past week or so. Now I cannot view videos on my news, facebook or in email messages at all. A message pops up in the window that says "Blocked plug-in". I have downloaded the latest version of Flash Player for which it asks and still no luck. Can anyone here help me with this? Thank you. Grace

TThere have been 3 updates to flash player ink the past month.
download and install the latest.
this warning seems to be a part of the newer security updates.
