Computer goes power-off when using flash player

Hi,
When using Linux (both Fedora 20 and openSuse 13.1), the latest updates installed, with latest flash player, recently my computer either starts rebooting continuously or just goes power-off. This happens between 15 seconds to 1 minute into a video. Earlier I thought it was the computer hardware being at fault, but after thoroughly cleaning it, it still happens and without playing a flash video, the computer just keeps running. List of my hardware (from dmesg): AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3100+, ATI RV620 LE [Radeon HD 3450] video, 2 GB RAM.
Thanks for any suggestion or solution...
H.

It's either graphics drivers or a heat problem (but that would be more the turn-off, but not the rebooting symptom).
You can disable hardware acceleration in Flash to try and avoid it.

I encountered a problem when using Flash Player V9.0.115, can somebody help me?

Hello all, can somebody help me?
I have encountered a problem when using Flash Player
V9.0.115. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
The problem described as follows:
1. The flash file with sound works well before uploaded to
website. The audio lost when uploaded to the website(There is no
problem with the flash file size). I have uploaded the flash file
to website for you to test. Please go to
http://www.sameshow.com/democreator/create
a new site.swf and kindly check with it.
2. When we open the flash movie in IE with Flash player
V9.0.47 and previous versions (Flash9d.ocx), the flash movie with
sound works well.
3. When we upgrade the flash player to the latest version
V9.0.115 (Flash9e.ocx), the video works well, but the sound just
can play several seconds and then stop.
4. On Flash Player ocx V9.0.115. If we publish the flash
movie on web with 24fps, the sound just can work several seconds
and then stop, the problem is the same if we use the
TShockWaveFlash control to play the flash movie.
5. On Flash Player ocx V9.0.115. If we publish the flash
movie with 12fps, the sound works well but the quality is really
very poor. It seems that the sound plays shorter with more frames
per second. But the flash file works well with the Flash Player
V9.0.47 and previous versions (Flash9d.ocx).
Can somebody help me to figure it out? Thanks in advance!

Sabrina

When using flash player for games, the mac runs real slow

When using flash player for games, the mac runs real slow. It's also not the fastest at anything. Can I do anything to speed stuff up ?????

Have no clue. You provided no details and your system profile is blank.
Which os are you using?
How are you connected to the internet?
Have you contacted your isp to make sure the slowness is not coming from their end?
Max out your ram.
How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?
You you using the latest version of Adobe Flash?
Please describe in detail all you have attempted to do in order to resolve the issue.

I cannot get rid of the permissions box when using flash player in firefox

Hi
I have explored on the web about this problem. When attempting to use flash player in firefox, I cannot click on the allow button to allow my video camera and microphone to be used on sites. I CAN go to Global settings and allow the sites by putting their URL, but this makes no difference, the little permissions box keeps appearing and won't go away.
Anyone know what else to try if changing global setting permissions doesn't work?
Barry

This sounds like a bug. The direction that we're heading is to have the browsers present these permission dialogs, and to eliminate them from Flash completely. It is unlikely these native dialogs will support an "always allow" or "remember" option.
If you're not able to click the button in the dialog when it's displayed, that's problematic. We have a couple things in the pipeline to make the dialog bigger. Usually those problems are resolution specific, although if there's moving video behind the dialog, that can trip our security controls. We do a bunch of checks to ensure that the dialog you're clicking isn't obscured by something else, so that we're sure you know that you're clicking and approve button.
There is an improvement in the pipeline to make these dialogs bigger. They were originally designed for 640x480 screens (they've been around *that* long), and they're way too small on modern high-density displays.
Anyway, you're welcome to file a bug at http://bugbase.adobe.com/. Please be sure to include a link to the problem content, and the configuration you're using (OS and browser version, and screen resolution would be particularly useful -- these are often resolution-dependent issues).

Videos won't play until fully loaded when using Flash Player

Hello,
When I try to play videos using flash player, it usually takes a very long time for them to start playing, because they do not start until the entire video is loaded. However, disabling flash player and using something like Quicktime allows me to start watching a video once enough of it has buffered.
I'm currently using Windows 7 x64, and it happens across browses (Firefox, Chrome, IE). I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling the latest version of Flash player several times, but no luck. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

How video is played is determined from the content/server, not flash player itself. Are you seeing this happen with YouTube?

Screen Flickering when using flash Player after suspend

Hey,
I've got a Samsung R40+ a pretty old Laptop everytime I set him to suspend and wake him afterwards the Screen flickers as soon as I use Flash player. I'ts mainly black and white stripes flashing across the screen especially bad when I watch Videos in Fulscreen. This happens with the Flashplugin aswell as with the Pepper-Flash in Chrome.
This has been an Issue Forever even back when I used Ubuntu I just Ignored it and never Let My Laptop suspend but if there is a solution I would love That.

High cpu usage when using flash player

Hi,
Just updated to Mavericks and now I'm having very high cpu usage while watching streams using flash player. CPU usage is somewhere around 110% and after a moment the stream starts to lag and fps is slowing down. I also tried using Chrome but with no difference. Flash player is the newest version 11.9.900.117.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

i think its the best to hit the report a problem button in safari, since its appears since i updated safari to 5.1.4! maybe they make a additional update

Iphone 4s turns off when using flash for photograph

so here is my problem. i have an iPhone 4s 16gb bought back at launch in 2011. since updating to ios6 i have this dumb issue.. whenever i try and click a photo using the stock camera app (with FLASH) the phone (sometimes) just turns itself off and when i try turning it back on, it tells me i need to connect it for charging (regardless of how much juice is remaining).. when i try turning it on after a few minutes it boots up normally with the amount of battery it had prior to the shut down.. i thought that the new software updates might solve this issue but it hasnt at all.. i have searched these forums and it seems im not the only one having this issue.. even upgrading to ios7 did nothing and its still the same.. it was working fine when i had ios5 out of the box.. also when i use flash (in a low light enviorment) the images are completely washed out/ heavily overexposed.. i mean you can only see the 4 corners of the picture.. i have no covers etc on the phone just fyi.. btw this only happenes in the stock ios camera app and not any of the 3rd party apps that i have tried.. also when i use the new quick flashlight it works perfectly without issue till the battery really drians out (just fyi for a perspective).. is there like a fix that im unaware about? or apple doesn't care about 4s people anymore??

Same thing happening here.
iphone4s 64gb switches off when taking pictures (sometimes) (often enough to be annoying!)
always with 10-40% of battery remaining
it shows flat battery animation and will NOT switch on, even if holding both buttons for 2mins+
but it turns on immediately when i connect charger, no waiting to charge
and immediately shows 10-50% of battery that i knew it had
it also did it once when playing music and then someone called me
device switched off when i pressed answer button
i am on 5.1.1 but know others on forums running 6.0.1 with same problem
so telling me to update will be pretty stupid advice
it did not happen on 5.0 (but that was when battery was new - 4 months old!)
had device for 13 months so warranty/swap is out of the question
as i paid £270 upfront for the device and still have to pay £37 per month to o2-UK for another year
i find it disgusting that i would have to pay to have it fixed/swapped considering its not my fault
im actually looking for a definite fix for this
NOT the usual 'take it to apple store' babble as i cant afford that
but we all know im not gonna get one....

Stage3d will always fall back to software mode when using flash player 11.6 content debugger

I just update my flash player and air sdk to 3.6. My game is being developing using starling. And after update was complete, weired things happened. First,it would always fall back to software mode when debugging with content debugger. I just couldn't get to the gpu mode with content debugger! Second, when I run my game with IE 10 with flash player 11.6, some transparent black skins becomes transparent white skins!!!! That drives me crazy! Surely there are lots of bugs with the release of flash player 11.6 for windows 8!

Momentary pause in Sound when using Flash Player AND Flash CS4

Hello,
When ever I play something in Adobe Flash Player (a flash movie, for example) and there is an absence of sound, the flash player will momentarily pause (for about 1 second) RIGHT BEFORE an incoming sound is made.
Imagine in the movie someone swings a hammer towards a plank. The animation will pause RIGHT BEFORE the hammer makes an impact and thus creates the hitting sound. The sound and animation will time up correctly, but there is that brief pause before, as if the internet browser, or flash player, or my sound card has to 'load' something before executing the sound.
I tried experimenting with my sound output via the bottom-right hand control properties on the desktop, and when I choose "Digital Output Device (SPDIF)" and disable my "SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC," there is absolutely NO sound at all, yet there is also NO lag prior to where a sound would play in the movie. This leads me to believe it may be a problem with my sound card.
As I said before, if the Flash player is playing a continuous sound, a background song, for instance, there is no momentary pause when the introduction of new sounds happens.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the player - no luck. Obviously i'm currently running the player at the newest version.
OS: Windows Vista Home Basic
RAM: 2G
Processor: Genuine Intel CPU 1.6 GHz
Sound: SigmaTel High Definition
Browser: FireFox

Right now the process is using 170 000 K and Safari is using around 130 000 K while im typing this. When i go to youtube it uses 290 000 K and safari runs slower. Its even worse with games when i tested a game

Browsers "Not Responding" when using Flash Player

New thread started on request (original text pasted) ...
--->8---
I too am having problems with any site that streams video using FP, and not just in IE 8. Internet Explorer (and Safari) try to buffer the video, and then stop responding.
A reboot will "solve" the problem, but for an indeterminate amount of time, then FP will start to cause problems again.
I have uninstalled FP, reinstalled FP, uninstalled FP again and manually emptied the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder and reinstalled FP to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated, as this is starting to bug somewhat!
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) - and yes I'm using the 32 bit IE 8
Browser: IE 8.0.7600.16385 (also tried Safari 4.0.5)
FP : 10.1.45.2
---8<---
Cheers,
Tony

Contents of C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash:
Flash10e.ocx - v10.0.45.2
FlashUtil10e.exe - v10.0.45.2
install.log
uninstall_activeX.exe - v10.0.45.2
Shockwave Flash object is enabled in Add-ons Manager, and i no longer have another browser installed.

When using Flash Player 11.4 and IE9, some sites display "Page cannot be displayed"

I am also having the similar problem with IE9 on windows 7 x64. IE9 showing "Page canno tbe displayed" for some of the sites (one of them is netbanking site for ICICI), however if I disable the shockwave flash object in addons, everything works fine just flash content is not dispalyed.
I tried every bit of setting for other browser these sites are working. I tried chrome.
Any solution? I already on the latest flash playe.
It is very annoying to first disable the flash then access these sites and then reenable it.

Jeromie/Chris-
Appreciate the effort to create this util, but this isn't a valid solution. Up until 11.3, there was no issue installing Flash regardless of the user profile that you were logged in as. That obviously changed in one of the 11.4 builds. Considering Flash is one of the MOST attacked and exploited pieces of code on user's PCs; as evidenced by all of the updates, these updates need to be quick and seemless without all of the extra steps which you are describing. Please dedicate some staff to review the code and figure out where the permissions problem is so all of us can stop wasting our time with this issue. Your installer should be able to write the necessary ACLs to eliminate this problem without having us jump through all of these extra hoops.
Again the problem stems from the fact that our users run as standard users and do not have rights to install software. Keeps our network nice an clean for the most part. Whenever staff visits a PC, they apply the latest version of Java and Flash using an admin account. Until version 11.4 this worked fine. Now if we are not logged in as the user (all accounts are in AD domain) it will appear to work fine, until the user logs back in. The solution we have found is to uninstall Flash, login as user accout and install with elevated perms.
