Crashes after updating last Flash Player version :(

I've updated my Acer 7720G with Nvidia GeForce 9300m G and W7 64 bit (Firefox) with last Flash Player's version: when i closed video (played with Flash), Flash Player and video card's drivers, both, crashed. Till I don't use command bottons it works perfectly, but if I use a botton like "pause", or "rewind", or "close all the windows", etc. they crash. Then the only solution is reinstalling Windows because it's like Flash Player modifies basic impostation of video card: infact also the bios screen doesn't work with notebook's display, but only with an external screen (even if I try to do the things you suggested in the forum). If I reinstall W7 the video card works on the notebook's display too, but the problem reappears just reinstall Flash Player (after playing a video like I said before). What should I do? May you help me, please? Thank You

Chris,
I removed all of the remaining files from the directories mentioned in your clean install instructions. There was nothing left that I can tell, but the update must have added / removed / changed a system file or registry entry for me not to be able to get this working properly again. As I mentioned, I did a controlled test to see if the upgrade would make the site fail, and it did, I just can't reverse the upgrade. I can still access my Flash Website properly from my Android Phone.
My website is http://deltastorm.org/
The Introduction loads fine, but as soon as you click on the "Home Page", I get a Black Screen in FireFox and Explorer, and in Chrome the site just freezes.
If you have an older version Flash Player still installed on one of your systems (not downgraded - does not work) you will be able to see the site functioning properly the way it has for several years.

Could someone explain to me why Flash virtual tours don't work after update to Flash Player 10.1?

Hello there,
Could someone explain to me why Flash virtual tours don't work after update to Flash Player 10.1?
Thanks!

www.privium.nl
klick the icon image 'virtual tour' upper right corner.
This works on my other pc, on which I did not update to 10.1 ...
(I produced this virtual tour; it is stored on the FTP server of the service provider I use for this)
Awaiting your reply,
Regards,

After updating my Flash Player, the Auto Vector Mask window is now blank.

After updating my Flash Player, the Auto Vector Mask window is now just a blank window.

You can replace the "Auto Vector Mask" SWF file present at the "Fireworks installation folder/Configuration/Commands/Creative/Auto Vector Mask.swf ".
If this doesn't work, then one of the reasons that it could be happening is if Firebug or Flash Firebug is installed.
If you have either of those, can you uninstall them and relaunch Fireworks.
Let me know if it works.

Does the last flash player version works correctly for Adobe portofolio file?

I have a problem with some Adobe Acrobat portofolio files, they were created some months ago with Acrobat X pro version but right now can not be opened.
The first message that appears is:
"To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat"
When I select the option for more info appears:
Online content cannot be displayed.
I installed the most recently Flash player version but the problem is the same
Actual Flash player installed version: 11.7.700.202
OS: Windows XP 32 bits
Browser : Internet Explorer version 8.0.6001
Somebody have any idea?
Please let me know, these files are really important for my work.

There is a separate installer for using Flash with Acrobat.

IMac Flash Freeze! Videos won't play after updating Adobe Flash Player. Send help (and donuts).

Last night I was prompted to download the newest version of Adobe Flash Player. After installing it Hulu and Youtube will not play videos. On Hulu there is a "Plug-In Failure" message. I've uninstalled it, reinstalled it, turned it off, turned it back on, uninstalled and reinstalled again, searched on message boards, turned it off for a long time and then turned it back on, refreshed the pages, and now I'm just drinking lots of coffee and pleading for help.
Hulu is my only t.v.!!!!

After Updating to Flash Player 9 Links stopped working

After I updated my flash plugin to 9 some of my flash links
stopped working. Our site uses CMS to upload the flash files. I
built them using actionscript 2. It's not all of the Swf that were
affected just some of them, but they were all built the same. On
release, get URL script. I tried it on a mac and a pc and neither
worked in firefox, safari, IE, or opera. I did a uninstall and
installed flash player 8, and everything works again. Its pretty
random anybody have any ideas?
Heres the page that does'nt work, but just the pant and
jacket links, not the ones in the header at the top.
http://www.sessions.com/snow.php?sid=3&gtype=M

It's just a regular link.
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.sessions.com/thumbs.php?psid=204&sid=2&gtype=W",
"_self");
I didn' t build the site could it be something in the
php?

Update to flash player version 10.0.42.34 from 10.0.32.18

Do I have to uninstall version 10.0.32.18 first? Or can I just download 10.0.42.34 from the adobe
site and it will autiomatically clean out the older version?
I get confused because when I go to the adobe site
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
then click installation instructions it takes me to
http://adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/instructions/
then under genera when I click support it takes me to
http://adobe.com/support/flashplayer/
under the installtion help tab it has this
How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control (2007/12/05)
and this says something about uninstalling older versions before downloading newer versions or was the above information meant for the really older versions back in 2007 and older?
So bottom line- Do I need to uninstall 10.0.32.18 first before installing 10.0.42.34 ?

or is it really just no big deal to use the uninstall flash player tool
Download the Adobe Flash Player uninstaller:
Windows: uninstall_flash_player.exe (205 KB) (updated 12/08/09)
reboot, then go to the adaobe site and download the newest flash player?

Windows 8: After update to Flash Player 13 no audio/youtube videos

Youtube videos only play a second, after that they reload multiple times and then youtube gives me some error about how it can't play the video.
Audio stopped working completely and itunes won't play songs. It's stuck at 0:00.
I already tried to reinstall. Also, I didn't find any previous versions for my windows like the mac users got.
Any help is very much appreciated. Yesterday evening the laptop did everything alright.

SoundBlaster ZxR Crashes after Update (153.61 MB Version)

Hello everyone,
I installed the SoundBlaster CD that came with the Sound Card and had no issues. Now, when I run the Creative Software Update Check and I install the latest update during the installation process the computer locks up and have to force shutdown (pressing manually the power button). Only way to solve this is to uninstall the drivers and install them again without doing the update.
I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro.
Any help?

After the upgrade to 3.6, my flash player crashes while I'm trying to play Farmville. I have tried updating the flash player. I have tried restarting the computer. Nothing is working.

Last night, my system was still using Firefox 3.5.8. I was playing Farmville on Facebook and everything was working fine. This morning, I log onto my computer and find that I am upgraded to Firefox 3.6. I have been trying to play Farmville all morning, and the Adobe Flash Player keeps crashing. I have tried to update the Flash Player. I have tried restarting the computer. Nothing is working.

To anyone experiencing this problem after trying the steps I posted above, try this potential solution:
# Open Tools->Add-Ons->Plugins, find Shockwave Flash, and press Disable
# Hold down the '''Windows logo key''' and press '''R''' to bring up the ''Run'' dialog.
# Type '''%APPDATA%''' and press OK.
# Open the Adobe folder
# Right click on the Flash Player folder and press '''Rename'''. Type in ''Old Flash Player'' as the new name.
# Go back to the Application Data or AppData folder. (On Windows XP, click '''Up''' in the toolbar. On Windows 7 or Vista, click AppData in the address bar)
# Open the Macromedia folder and repeat step #5
# Go back to the add-ons window from step #1, and press Enable on Shockwave Flash
# Try Farmville, Youtube, and other affected sites to see if the problem is fixed.

After updating to Flash version 11.6.602.171 - can no longer play any embedded videos..and worse

To begin with, I'm running a clean AMD 64 Bit Windows 7 System. Never any problems with any of my video playing scenarios - until now - with this version 11.6.602.171.
After downloading and installing both versions - both for Firefox (other browsers) and IE, none of my browsers can play videos unless they are at their lowest resolution of 240.
So I used the Adobe Flash Uninstaller and ensured that the last vestages of Flash Player were removed - and reinstalled - all to no avail.
Then I downloaded the archived version of 10.3 to see if a previous version would work. But that wouldn't work either. None of my browsers will play videos now and I'm talking:
IE 10
Firefox 19.01
Avant Browser
Google Chrome
Google Chromium
Commodo Dragon
Commodo Ice Dragon
Opera
Waterfox
Pale Moon
None will play the video.
What you get is the video screen but unless you have a 240 option (lowest resolution), all you get is a green screen. You hear the talking/music, but there is no picture and all the green screen does is flash. Here's a JPG of the screen. If you put your cursor anywhere on the progress meter (arrow) it will show you a small image of what's supposed to be playing (see below), but the screen remains green and flashes while playing.
Now here is where it gets interesting. When I completely uninstall Adobe Flash Player and then go to a You Tube embedded video (on any site), there first appears a screen that tells you that you need a plug-in - but then within seconds (without downloading anything), the movie starts playing normally.
I then checked my Firewall (Zone Alarm) - turned it off temporarily - that wasn't the problem. Then checked my latest version of Avast AntiVirus software and temporarily turned it off - that was not the problem either. The videos still won't work and remain green unless you use the lowest resolution.
So this new version 11.6.602.171 has become a nightmare - but I'm afraid it messed up my system big time and I don't know what to do to alleviate this.
Crying HELP!!!!!!!!!!   Is there something I'm overlooking. I'm now screwed - way to go Adobe for releasing such a faulty software product.

It sounds like we've got a number of *different* problems on this thread. I'll try and respond to a few of them.

Sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.

@mem2013 - The Flash Player update service will not impact Flash Player's performance. This is a separate service that runs for just an instant on your system once an hour (if you have automatic updates enabled.) Changing it from manual to automatic shouldn't make any difference.

My IE 10 broswer won't recognize that I have updated my Flash Player to version 11

My IE 10 broswer doesn't recognize that I've updated to Flash Plyer version 11? It continues to tell me I don't have it - even when I can see it is on my program files (?)

You CAN'T see it in your program files because it ISN'T a program - it's a browser plugin, and in the case of IE 10 for Win 8, it's updated through Windows Update. Additionally you may need to re-enable it after the update.

I have iMac (Mavericks). I could no longer view CNN video clips after installing Adobe Flash Player update

Other users and guest account could still view the CNN clips but I can view the Ads and then just a black screen? Any suggestions ?

I uninstalled version 13 and installed the version 12 as they suggested. Did not work.
On my computer now I have three accounts.
1. Mine - Flash Player version 13 originally worked but after updating (as was suggested by onscreen prompt) it did not work with Safari. Uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Playaer version 12 also did not work.
2. Second computer user can still see CNN video clips in Safari. 'This user did NOT install the update to version 13.
3. Guest accoount still can see CNN video clips in Safari.
Any suggestions how to get back to the original configuration on my account. Unfortunately, I did not know about Time Machine and did not have it set up (have subsequently tried to set it up but cannot seem to be able to select a backup disk).
Any suggestions appreciated.

How do I get a user to update to the Flash Player Version to 10.1

I would like to find out if there is a way for a message to pop up on my website if the user has Flash Player version lower than 10.1. If the version 10.1 or higher (in the future) no message should come up. The message should prompt a user to update to the Flash Player version 10.1.
My entire site is in Flash and I am using AS3. So I am guessing I should implement an AS3 code on the first frame of the script layer. Does anyone know what would be this code?

O.K. I see,
HTML code is automatically generated by Flash program.
I am unable to give you a short answer on this and thus attaching the code I
see in DreamWeaver:
