Can't View Flash Content in Opera 9

Hello,
I'm having viewing Flash content with Opera 9. I have downloaded and installed the latest version of Flash (9.0.18), and my other browsers have no problem showing the Flash content.
Am I missing something here with getting Opera 9 to display Flash movies, etc.? I can't figure out how to instruct the browser to display it.
Many thanks,
sarah

Sheeesh, fixed it.
Open Opera 9 Preferences
Click the Advanced Tab at the top
Select Downloads in the left column, you will get a Mime type window
Scroll and find .swf extension then click Edit
At the bottom of the window that opens it should be checked "Use plug-in" and show Shockwave Flash
Select Shockwave Flash and you will see another one listed as well, swap to it and restart Opera.
Somehow, even though I did uninstall all older components, it's found and used the wrong one.
Now Flash works fine in Opera 9, Safari and Firefox.

Blocking all flash content with Opera

Hi!
How can I block all flash content except Youtube with Opera?
Do you know any system wide methods to block flash (except youtube)?
cheers

Press F12 (or "Tools > Quick Preferences") and disable plug-ins. Then go to youtube.com, right-click and choose "Edit Site preferences". Add youtube.com (delete the www.) and enable plug-ins on the Content tab.
Not all flash content on Youtube comes from youtube.com, so you probably have to create more exceptions over time.

Any recommendations for a flash player? I've tried opera mini but it really doesn't work.

Any recommendations for a flash player to watch videos and movies? I've tried opera mini per support but doesn't work.

Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). In terms of browsers there is Skyfire which 'works' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites.

Problems with loading flash content in firefox, chrome, and opera

Salutations. The past couple of days, I've been having trouble with loading flash content on many sites. In particular, many flash games on sites like facebook will not load for me. Sporadically on other sites, flash content will not load, either.
I have no trouble with flash in IE9, but when I try to load these same pages in opera, chrome, and firefox i receive a "This Adobe flash plugin has crashed" error. I do send a crash report each time I receive this error. I've uninstalled flash and reinstalled it several times and it still performs this error. Sometimes when i try to load certain flash games on Chrome a "the following plugin is unresponsive: shockwave flash. would you like to stop it?" error and this makes the whole browser unresponsive. I receive the same error in Opera.
I have the following browsers and flash versions:
Firefox: 6.0.2 with adobe flash 10.3.183.7
Chrome: 13.0.782.220 with adobe flash 10.3.183.7
Opera: 11.51 with adobe flash 10.3.183.7
As for my system, I have Windows Vista Home Premium with service pack 2.
Prior to upgrading to this new version of flash, everything worked fine in all of these browsers for me.
As an afterthought, I figured that I should mention that I'm running adobe flash 10.3.183.5 with IE9, which is the main difference between that one browser and the other three.

Thanks for the report. Odd that IE is fine, though maybe something broke between .5 and .7. Would you mind opening a new bug on this issue over at bugbase.adobe.com? Here's a post that describes the information we'll need and instructions for generating a crash log:

Opera Mini problem with E72

Hi all..
This is my first post here.
I can't use Opera mini web browser at all! It loads and finally throws up the following error:
"Failed to connect to the Internet."
It's frustrating coz I was (am) able to use Opera mini without any glitch on N73..
Thanks,
Cheers!
Nokia 1108, Nokia 2626, SE k750i, XpressMusic 5220, N73 Music edition, E72.

hi every one,
I have the same issue too, both with opera mini and opera 10. Not able to connect using wifi connects.
I have already updated the nokia software to 051.18
what I think the main issue is related with JAVA. As I am also not able to connect / use other JAVA related applications as well on my set. Like ebuddy, nokia chat and mobi cast (cricinfo mobile application ).
The error msg when I try to connect with ebuddy: "Your internet settings must be activated for JAVA APPLICATION or try again later". This is the default error msg which comes again n again every time.
I did chk the java setting ---> Menu --> Internet ----> Web ---> Options ---> Settings ----> General ---->
Is there a solution for this? Can some one help me to sort out this issue? Please.
all the best,
junaid

Are there other internet browsers that work well displaying websites with a lot of Flash content?

Other than the browser that came on the Samsung Droid Charge....
Are there other internet browsers that work well displaying websites with a lot of Flash content?
Thanks in advance!

I use Dolphin Browser 6.0. Its faster than 5.0 and has no issues with Flash. I have used flash and used the Beta 6.0 and now the actual released version. Its the best so far. It has tabs like a normal computer browser and even has a gesture feature to do scrolling.
Others are Firefox which has NO flash. Then there is SkyFire which is ok, uses its servers to compress data and show it on your phone, its quick but I found the quality of images not as good as stock.
Opera Mobile and Mini do the same as skyfire.
I personally just didnt care for Xscope of Miren browsers. Didnt care for the feel of Xscope and Miren was developed in China and is modeled after Iphone Browser.
Try em all if you want, biggest benefit of the aftermarket browser is you can sync certain accounts (dolphin with google, firefox with firefox) and instead of storing the Cache info using phone memory you can now save the data and the web browser on the SD card.

Nokia browser/Opera Mini

Is there any way I can set-up Opera Mini as my main default browser (for example if I recieve a text message including a web link so that I can open it with Opera rather than Nokia's browser) Thank you very much!

There seems some bugs on the Nokia in-built browser to browse large sites and advanced flash based sites. Please try loading small sites.
Solution
1. Close all applications running in the background.
2. Delete the contents of C:\System\cache.
3. Delete the contents of C:\System\dmgr.
4. Delete the contents of C:\System\temp.
Avoidance
1. Large and slow loading sites.
2. Full flash based websites.
3. Flash based games sites.
Why?
- Because, we're using smartphones and not a personal computer, the device built in browser has liitations and dont expect it to deliver what you always do on the personal computer.
However, if u intend to use Opera Mobile 10, u may type in opera:config in the address bar and scroll down to Disk Cache section, change the unit 4096 to 2048.
Also, please feedback the results as the results could be useful to other members / visitors.
Thanks & best regards,

Why is my flash content not working on my dreamweaver created html site?

This is a problem that's happening on my website I'm creating. I created a quick test website to show you the problem on the fourm. It's the same problem, and if you can provide the solution to this test website I can apply it to my main website.
Test website on server:
test331754952.net23.net
What I did:
-launched flash
-typed "test" and made it spin 360 degrees
-published swf
-launched dreamweaver
-created a site
-moved swf to site folder
-saved a html file to the site folder
-in dreamweaver, went to insert, media, swf, then selected the swf I made
-it inserted the swf, creating a gray placeholder for it
-re-saved the html document, at which point dreamweaver created a folder named script and 2 files, an swf, and a javascript file
Site Directory:
Scripts Sub-Directory:
What happens:
-when I launch the swf on my machine, it plays fine
-when I open the swf directly on the test website on the server, it plays fine
-when I open the html with the embended swf on the test website on the server, it shows a gray box, then goes white
-In dreamweaver, when I go to preview in browser and choose internet explorer, it tells me I don't have new flashplayer(I do: flashplayer 11)
Ie also pokes up a box at the bottom that says its not allowing content. When I click allow content, it creates a gray box
-In dreamweaver, when I go to preview in borwser and choose google chrome, it tells me flash player has stopped a potentionally unsafe operation. When I close this dialog box, it gives me a gray box where my swf should be embeded.
-I've tried changing global flash secuirty setting and it does nothing
-I've tried visiting the test website on multiple computers in my household to no avail
-I've tried having friends visit the site on their computer at their house to no avail
-I did't touch the code on this test website-the code is exactly what dreamweaver generated

Can someone please help! I've looked and tried prety much everything. If you can provide a solution I would GREATLY apreciate it!

There is no Flash player version 15... as in your code:
<param name="swfversion" value="15.0.0.0" />
For some reason Adobe thought it would be a good idea to target a Flash player version (15) as default.....which may be out a couple years in the future. Go figure!!!
If you don't like player version 9, change to 10 or 11.... just not 15 (yet).
Best wishes,

Flash Content on the BBC in Safari 5.0.6

This question applies to my G5 2.5 gHz Tower running Safari 5.0.6. and an issue with Flash content on the BBC News website.
I often the BBC News website, and until a few months ago was able to play all of their video content. For some inexplicable reason their website now tells me I do not have the minimum Flash version (10.1.0) for playback. However, I do have the minimum Flash installation (v.10.1.102.64) as confirmed by the Adobe web site, and, seconded by the simple fact that Firefox 3.6.25 on the very same computer does play all the content at the BBC News web site and fails to generate any warnings.
So, Mac gurus and assorted experts who have earned my depest respect... what's going on? I have written to those in charge of the BBC News web site and indications are they probably didn't read my message past the subject line as they proceeded to ask me all the questions they'd have had answers to by reading my message in the first place. In short, they asked me to upgrade to Flash 10.1.0... so that route is not going solve my problem.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks...

BBC iPlayer relies on Adobe Air. AIR 1.5.3 is the last version of AIR that supports Mac PowerPC and Windows 2000. AIR applications that require AIR 2 or later cannot be installed or used on a Macintosh PowerPC or a computer running the Windows 2000 operating system.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/853/cpsid_85304.html
I am in the same boat. I cannot watch flash videos on the BBC website or on BBC iPlayer, although all other flash videos (YouTube for example) are fine.
For reasons that passeth all understanding, they work with the PPC version of Firefox, called TenFourFoxG5.app, once you have anabled plug-ins, as it does not natively support Flash.
You can download TenFourFoxG5 from here:
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
But there is a workaround!
Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
I am using Flash 10.1.102.64 in TenFourFox and it works just fine.

Firefox closes on websites with Flash content

I have been experiencing this problem after the last couple of updates. I'm currently running 3.6.6. On nearly every site that runs Adobe Flash content, the content loads to the point that I know it will work, but Firefox stops loading the content, freezes, and then closes with no error messages. I reopen it and it asks for a session restore, but only about half of the time. The other half, it restores the tabs to about 10 seconds before the crash. I would open Speedtest.net, for example, it would load the player to when the blue line appears in the bottom, and then the loading wheel in the tab would freeze. After that, it closes. It has happened every time I opened that website. It would happen on other site with flash games as well.
I have reinstalled Adobe Flash by uninstalling and then reinstalling. I have also manually upgraded Firefox again. None of these have fixed the problem.

Open up computer case, unplug and take out the processor fan cooler and wipe out all the dust, speccially in the heatsink, with a soft little brush and compressed air spray (also check power supply fan). I discovered this solution after weeks of trying all software related recommended steps and nothing worked, adobe flash player was still crashing in firefox, chrome and opera even after completely uninstalling flash and installing latest version 10.2.152.26 of the plugin. I realized this was the problem when pc started to crash unexepectedly when not playing flash videos. So, EUREKA, that did the trick for me. Hope it does for you.

Flash Content Freezes Temporarily in IE

After moving the mouse on to Flash content on a web page in
IE6 and IE7, it freezes for a few seconds, and then becomes
responsive again. It seems that when this happens, everything on
the page including links and rollover images become unresponsive as
well.
I tried reinstalling IE7 (during which time I tested the
problem in IE6) with no luck in either browser. There was still a
slight duration of unresponsiveness. I also uninstalled flash
player and installed the standalone version of 9,0,28.
Firefox and Opera are both fine and do not present this
issue.
I know this is confined to my PC only as I tested it on my
flat mate's PCs. But I was wondering if anyone else has had this
problem or might be able to help or suggest something to try.
It might be worth noting that when the Flash content is
playing audio, the audio does not stop when the mouse and visual
frames halt for that short period.

Solved!
It was a problem with FlashGet 1.80. This version of FlashGet
introduced a Flash download button which annoyingly popped up right
under the mouse cursor when you moused over a Flash object on a web
page and must have been causing any Flash content to pause for a
short time.
The latest version of FlashGet v1.82 does not present this
problem :)

Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.

== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Not sure when it statrted

Hi.
When this happens, please press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and see how much RAM and CPU Firefox is using. If they're sky high, then... Well, that kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
#run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
#update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
#enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
#you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
#do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
#disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix you issues with Firefox, proceed;
#check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
#check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.

Graphic accelellator used by flash content

Is the possibility of graphic accelellation hardware usage by flash content a valid option/preference
of current flash version?
As described here:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
Why is this preference not placed in Global Settings Panel?
I think, it should be placed in Global Settings Panel, so one can with one operation
disable this support for all url's.

OK I understand more clearly now.
No, there is no public option for disabling GPU acceleration across all played content. We intended to leave it to the developer as to whether or not they chose to use gpu mode (which most do not).
This seems like an unusual request. Why do you want it?
Actually, don't tell me. Write it up as a feature request in the public bugbase:
For beginners, see "Introducing the Flash Player bug and issue management system" at
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/logged_in/tmccauley_fplayer_bugbase.html
If you've been involved in the public Flash Player bugbase before, go directly there:

Cannot play Flash content in IE7

When I navigate IE7 to any site (including adobe.com) that
has Flash content, I get a message saying I need to enable
javascript (it is) and/or upgrade my Flash player. I am running
Vista, and this worked until sometime in the last week or so.
Flash content does run on this machine inside Firefox 3.0.1,
but IE7 appears to be dead.
The error message I get is "Error in loading DLL". It appears
to pop up when the javascript code is trying to load or access the
flash content.
I tried installing the Flash Player 9.0.124 using the web
site - no luck.
I tried uninstalling (clean), rebooting, then installing from
the web site - no luck.
I tried uninstalling (clean), rebooting, then used the manual
installer (Install Flash Player 9 AX) - no luck.
I tried uninstalling (clean), rebooting, then used the manual
installer (FlashUtil9f) - no luck.
I tried running reset_minimal.cmd (per instructions) - no
luck.
I tried disabling my AV (Kaspersky) while repeating all of
the above - no luck.
I tried running sfc /scannow but it reports no errors.
I tried the Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/Reset to "reset"
IE to its defaults - no luck.
I am really, really stumped on this one. What should I do
next?

BWolfe, dougclutter, and others with Doug's problem:
BWolfe, I'm truly amazed that dougclutter and others have had
this very specific and real problem for so long, and Adobe hasn't
lifted a finger to cure it. I'm stunned. I've been plagued with
this thing for at least 3 months now, and have been all over the
net looking for a remedy, after finding absolutely no help from
Adobe.
Here's what my symptoms are:
IE with Flash works in all accounts but mine.
Latest Adobe Flash player (10) is properly installed. Flash
content will play on IE8 in anyone's User Account on this machine
but mine. The only way flash content will play in my user account
is if it is started as "Run As Administrator". Can actually run 2
instances of IE side by side, one started normally, the other
started as "Run as Administrator". Oprah, U Tube, etc., will run
flash content in the latter window, but won't in the former. Flash
errors (in IE7} are something to the effect, "Can't run DLL", with
line number reference, etc. No help from Adobe, HP (my machine
manufacturer) or Microsoft without paying them a bundle. Just
updated IE7 to 8, problem unchanged.
Elaboratiing:
When right clicking on where Flash Player is supposed to be,
then clicking the "about Adobe Flash... ", the browser is sent to:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/
When clicking on the error message at the bottom of the
browser, the following error message is displayed. (This was
copied, which Vista gives you the opportunity to do, then pasted
here.)

Flash content DOES play with Adobe Flash 10 in my user
account with Apple Safari browser when started normally, just not
with IE8 browser. However, the IE8 browser does play Flash content
in any and every other user account.
BWolfe, instead of telling us about proper Adobe procedures
for reporting and troubleshooting these things, how about you
forward this to someone who can tell us how to fix this thing! I,
like dougclutter and others, have been thru the entire Adobe Flash
Player troubleshooting guide, carried out every suggestion there
exactly, to no avail. I can show you at least 3 other instances of
different folks with this same problem. And, as I think I've seen
elsewhere in this thread, and tried myself, Adobe certainly doesn't
make it easy to report non-paying customer problems, as with Flash
Player.
It's high time Adobe gets with at least one of us to help
diagnose and cure this problem, and then adds the info to their
troubleshooting guide, or else fix it in the application if
possible. Whether the problem is in the app, or do to interaction
with Vista and possibly XP, you guys need to look into this thing.
I, for one, would be more than happy to help you 'shoot this thing,
I am and engineer and have been computing since the DOS days.
Bewildered,
Dave
