Can anyone help me? Flash player issues

For about 3 months now i have had some flash issues which i believe i have tried everything i can possibly think of. I am using 11.2.205.235 currently up to date and my main browser is firefox, however this issue happens on all browsers.
I, whenever a new update, do a clean install as per your site instructions. However the last 2 updates it seems that it installs fine, works fine and then once i have restarted my laptop stops working within a browser and has to be reinstalled. The files are still there, it doesnt tell me to reinstall, but it doesnt work, nothing works, so i reinstall and it starts working again.
I have made a new admin acct on my laptop, no joy. I have done at least 100 clean installs, no joy. I have tried many browsers, no joy. I have tried the windows fix for allowing flash you describe, no joy.
I am out of ideas, i continue to reinstall everyday for it to work and its very annoying, please someone help.
Windows vista 32bit
firefox 12

thank you

I have seen this symptom dozens of times here at the forum, and normally a clean install fixed the problem permanently.  I don't know why it does not for you.
Things to try:
see if a driver update improves the situation (black instead of video may be fixed with a driver update): http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765
see if there is a permission problem somewhere: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/987370
If that still does not fix it, hopefully someone from the Flash Player team can step in (after the weekend is over in the US).

  • Can anyone help with Flash Player?

    I have tried to install Flash Player many times and it never seems to work. I get the download, and install the program however when I go to sites that have told me to download it in the first place, I still get the message to download it. What is the problem? Why isn't the installation taking?

    Howdy,
    It may be useful in this case to know that Security Update 2006 - 006 has bundled the Flash player v.9.0.16 stuff with the other security installations.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304460
    "Flash Player
    CVE-ID: CVE-2006-3311, CVE-2006-3587, CVE-2006-3588, CVE-2006-4640
    Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9, Mac OS X Server v10.3.9, Mac OS X v10.4 through Mac OS X v10.4.7, Mac OS X Server v10.4 through Mac OS X Server v10.4.7
    Impact: Playing Flash content may lead to arbitrary code execution
    Description: Adobe Flash Player contains critical vulnerabilities that may lead to arbitrary code execution when handling maliciously-crafted content. This update addresses the issues by incorporating Flash Player version 9.0.16.0 on Mac OS X v10.3.9 and Flash Player version 9.0.20.0 on Mac OS X v10.4 systems."
    I've just installed the Security Update and confirmed that it updated the Flash player plugin as described.
    Unfortunately, the plug in has gone back to its old habits of hogging processor - - so badly in my case that I can run nothing else while using it in Safari.
    At least it is only hogging around 65 percent of processor when it plays in Firefox.
    good luck with your upgrade.

  • When i update my IOS7 i lost my all pic from my IPAD2 how to get back those pic? and i don,t think so i did kept back up before i did that. can anyone help me for this issue?

    When i update my IOS7 i lost my all pic from my IPAD2 can anyone suggest how to get back those pic? and i don,t think so i did kept back up before i update ios7. can anyone help me for this issue?

    The photo's in your camera roll would be in a backup, if you have one (iCloud or iTunes).  If you did not keep a backup somewhere, they are gone.  Sorry, but that is the way of any data - if you don't have a backup of it somewhere, there is nothing to restore it from.
    All other photo's should be on your computer somewhere anyway - whereever you had them to sync to the device originally.

  • Can anyone help me with an issue with opening PDF files- ?

    I have windows vista 34 bit, IE 8. I have had adobe reader on my computer for 7 yrs. Never had a problem with it until now. I have kept it updated, since it is vital to my work. Last week, I tried to open a PDF file for work, and I get a "white/blank page". I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 9, 7 times, tried the "Repair tool". and nothing works.  Can anyone help?  I have very little computer knowledge.. do not understand computer language, or anything tech-- so please don't reply as a developer or IT tech language.  Dummy it down for me.

    There are multiple people using this same site, and I am the only one that is having this issue-- everyone else can open/download their documents/ PDF files,, Why can't I??   I am loosing buisness because of this issue. There has to be an answer somewhere?? Does anyone have anything???? HELP!!!
    Ok-- Everyone and anyone!!!!  I really need help desprately.. I have called the company's web site IT department,  it's not thier issue-- it's mine.  In addition to uninstalling and reinstalling, making sure that everything is up to date on Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash and Sun Java, and Windows vista 32 (only updated) --- all these have the latest updates. I have done a System Restore to 5 days before the issue started. Nothing has changed. I still get a white/blank page on this one area. There has to be a setting, a block or a glitch somewhere that someone knows about and can help me fix. Please, Please Help!!!!

  • Can anyone help with my battery issues

    This past month my battery has been draining really fast, it could be sitting at 53%, then after a couple of minutes could be at 40%. It used to last all day easily, and I'm not doing anything differently.  I have tried discharging and recharging fully a few times, and thought maybe installing ios 7 might help, but it hasn't

  • Please can anyone help with my registration issue?

    Hi - I am having great difficulty registering (and therefore continuing to use) CS6. I purchased this a few days ago and installed.. at the time I could not register as it stated I had no internet connection or my clock was wrong - neither is the case (clock is fine and I have internet). So I chose to register later. Now, every time I try to use Photoshop it states I must register within x number of days or it will stop working.. but every time I try to register it again tells me I have no internet connection. SO I get a message stating I should contact customer support (hard as they are closed when I get back from work) or visit www.adobe.com/getactivated_uk, which I do. This tells me that if I am permanently offline (which I'm not but for the purposes of actually managing to register, let's say I am) that I can: ' Follow the installation or product launch screens until you see a link that says "I cannot connect to the internet" or "Having trouble connecting to the internet". Click the link and follow the instructions on the subsequent screen to initiate offline activation. Instructions there will tell you how to generate a Request Code.' What installation or product launch screens? I have already installed. I can nowhere find an option that states 'having trouble connecting to the internet'. How do I therefore generate a request code? Please can anyone help drag me out of this loop of madness? I am not on t-3 days and counting before it stops working:( So confusing, not at all easy to set up as I had hoped. Please help?

    Will do my best. No, I appreciate is isn't Adobe support, I had thought that was forums were for - support and advice, sharing of knowledge? I had hoped someone else had experienced something similar in the past. Maybe I'm wrong, this is fairly new to me.  Once I am up and running I will be offering helpful support to others. Thanks for your helpful support

  • Since downloading Mtn.Lion my epson printer doesn't work correctly & the entire system seems to be slower plus my iMac now disconnects from my wifi every time the mac sleeps. Can anyone help me with these issues?

    I am having problems with my Imac (approx 1 yr old) every since I downloaded (from the App.Store) Mountain Lion.  I am a working mom with 3 toddlers.....I have very little time to work on the computer which I primarily use for photograhpy needs.  I am not computer savvy enough to figure out how to "fix" the new issues/problems and am frustrated.  I am hoping someone can help me........
    Issues just since downloading Mountain Lion:
    1)  My Epson R2400 printer is not printing properly.  It wouldnt print at all from CS5 the first 2 days.  Then just started printing.  The prints aren't nearly as good as they used to be.  I just installed Photoshop Elements 10 and have been able to print but the prints are just awful. I printed a test page and it was perfect.  I've triple checked the settings in the print dialogue box to ensure the correct paper is chosen, etc.  I've never let the printer manage the color before but it is the only option that gives a mediocre print at best.
         I've gone to Epson.com.   It says to update driver through Apple for Mtn. Lion.  According to my computer I have no updates.  Printer is connected via USB. Changed the ports, turned printer on & off.  Emailed epson & they said to reset the print queue, which I did.  Restarted the IMac Still no luck.  (The error message I got when trying to print from CS5 is "filter failed." But, as stated before it just started printing today as I was typing this.      
          I print out pics quite a bit and it seems the only time I have ever had problems is when I upgraded the OSX system. Why is that??  When I upgraded to 10.7 is when I first realized my print quality went down.
    2)  Now every time I "wake" up my computer it has become offline and has to go through the steps to reconnect to my wifi.  Never did that before Mtn.Lion.  I purchased the Airport Extreme Dec 2011.  My computer was always connected before the update.  Now I have to scroll down & pick my network & wait for it to connect before proceeding.   I double checked preferences and it is set up to check for updates automatically.  What is that about??
    3)  It just seems that my system overall is slower.  I love my mac but I am frustrated because I don't have the free time needed to do all this problem solving.  I just need it to work properly when I have a few minutes to work on a picture.  I imagine there are other issues, but these are the only  2 areas I've focused on since the upgrade.
    I've read different views/feedback on Mtn Lion but haven't come across the printer issue or the wifi connection issue.
    Can anyone direct me towards a solution? I really appreciate it!
    T

    I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
    She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
    Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
    The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
    Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
    Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
    If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
    One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15947486#15947486
    On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
    I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

    *Thanks to Klaus1 for the following:*
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    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.*_
