Error, The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed. Where do I go to down load it or how do I fix it??

Error, "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed." I get this error when I try to watch a video even on YouTube. Where do I go to down load it or how do I fix it??

I'd start with disabling Hardware Acceleration, as described in the video troubleshooting guide below:
Video playback issues
If that solves the problem, make sure that your graphics drivers are current. 
If it *still* happens with current drivers, please give us detailed information on the graphics card and driver, so that we can disable hardware acceleration on this configuration and start a conversation with the appropriate vendor.
The best way to get this information is to do the following (on Windows):
Open a command prompt
Type: dxdiag
Hit Enter
This should launch the DirectX Diagnostic Tool
Click Save All Information (or whatever that save button says).

  • I'm getting the error "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed" whenever I try and watch livestreams on Justin.tv, although any other content that requires flash works fine.

    I've tried uninstalling flash and firefox separately and neither helped.

    I cannot recall ever being this frustrated with my Mac and I have been faithfully using Mac for 20+ years!!
    I am currently using a Macbook Pro 2.3 Ghz intel Core i7 4GB RAM Mac OSX 10.7.5
    Problems encountered:
    Very slow browsers chrome, safari, firefox - have tried them all in hopes of finding one that works with no luck!!
    Adobe Flash crash error codes all the time.  I receive update request links from all three browsers asking me to update adobe flash software which I have done repeatedly numerous times with absolutely no success, just a waste of time and lots of frustration.
    Spinning rainbow sprocket is a common thing on my macbook, drives me insane!!
    I found this thread and followed the instructions to go into "System Preferences, Flash Player, selecting the Advanced tab, and delete all browser data and settings."  I then updated my Adobe Flash in my System Preferences, not the typical browser update method.
    So far, this method appears to be working - will keep my fingers crossed!!!

  • The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed! Help please.

    I can't load any flash content within Firefox. I instantly get the following error: "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed. Reload the page to try again.".
    So far I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash, restarted my computer, and disabled hardware acceleration all to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

    Ok, so scratch my last response. Disabling hardware acceleration through Firefox (orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available" ) did not work however step 3B did. Following your link, right clicking on the Flash logo and disabling hardware acceleration there has fixed my issue.
    Thanks!

    Your installed plugins list shows two different versions of Flash. Use the Adobe uninstaller program to entirely remove Flash and then install the latest version.

  • I often get the message "The Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed / Reload the page to try again" but the plugin check page does not list Adobe Flash.

    The plugin check page does list something called 'Shockwave Flash." I went to the Adobe site and downloaded and installed the latest version of Adobe Flash but it still does not show up on the plugin check page. I don't see how Adobe Flash can be crashing in Firefox when Firefox doesn't even know that it's installed.

    Your System Details List shows the Shockwave Flash 12.0 r0 plugin as installed, so you appear to have the Flash plugin installed.
    You can check the version of the current Flash player here:
    *http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    *http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
    What is the current setting for the Flash plugin on Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

    Hi,
    I have exactly the same problem for a while (FF 3.6.13,Win 7-32 on HP 8730w)and I cannot understand that the Mozilla foundation doesn't do anything about it.
    I tried to deactivate the Skype plugin that seems to be at the head of a lot on unstability but no use.
    Going to 70% of the websites with flash and having FF that hangs really sucks and I am close to re-install explorer on my PC Guys, so DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, Call the Adobe engineers and sit around a table or you will loose market share soon... :-((

  • The Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed

    Shockwave - Version: 11.6.1.629
    Flash  - Version: 11.0.1.152
    AIR  - Version: 3.0.0.4080
    And if i try to start the game League of Legends i get the following Error : "Adobe AIR Debug Launcher hat ein Problem festgestellt und muss beendet werden." ( in english its something like :

    many people are not able to use flashbased sides anymore and are not able to conect to Games than need the AIR tool.
    *sorry for my bad english, but i hope you understand what i want to tell you*

    Not quite sure if your problem is with Flash Player, or Adobe AIR, or both?
    For Flash Player, can you try if the problem still exists with the 11.2 beta: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplatformruntimes/flashplayer11-2/ ?
    There is also a AIR 3.2 beta if you want to try this: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplatformruntimes/air3-2/

  • "Adobe flash plugin has crashed" error. Help?

    I have tried a bunch of fixes I found searching through the web, but nothing so far has worked. I thought you fine fellow Apple folks might know what the heck is going on. After the last update, I started getting the error message "Adobe flash plugin has crashed" in both Firefox and Safari (both updated fully). I'm running Snow Leopard on a Mac Pro. Using latestet version of the Flash plugin. And, I have uninstalled and installed again per Adobe's website... not helpful, still having the issue.
    Funny thing is, I have all the same software, updgrades, etc. on my Macbook Pro, and the Flash plugin works fine. Can anyone help me find out what might be causing this issue?

  • I have the latest plugins and firefox but it still says 'adobe flash plugin has crashed' How do i fix this?

    Every time I go on YouTube, it comes up with: 'adobe flash plugin has crashed'. I have tried refreshing and restarting my laptop, I have also got all the latest flash and Firefox, but it still won't work.

    I'd start with disabling Hardware Acceleration, as described in the video troubleshooting guide below:

  • I have updated my Adobe Acrobat plugin three times today but the firefox plugin check says it is out of date, a problem as I repeatedly encounter "The Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed" when I attempt to download pdfs.

    I am attempting to download pdf's from a library search on JSTOR. I can view the pdf but cannot download them as they say "The Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed". I have been to the firefox plugin check and have updated Adobe Acrobat three times in the last hour, but it still says my plugin is not up to date. This leads me to believe that this may be the source of my crash errors.
    I updated Adobe Flash from the same firefox plugin check page and after one try it now says I am up to date, so my system is obviously accepting these updates.
    Help!!!!!

    The following solution is useful for people who have the full version of Acrobat 9, but are getting the error message "the Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed". You probably want the features in the full version of Acrobat, but still need to be able to open PDF files from your Firefox browser.
    Go to Tools > Options > Applications. Scroll down and change all of the Adobe Acrobat files to open with Acrobat 9 (or whatever version you have) instead of "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". This may not be as handy as having it use Acrobat inside the Firefox browser, but it will still let you open PDF files without having to uninstall the full version of Acrobat. Hope this helps.

  • Firefox crashes: "Adobe Flash Plugin has Crashed" (in safemode)

    In Gmail / compose / attach a file (about 11 Megs)
    about 3/4 of file is uploaded when a bar opens at the top with error message. "Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed" ... click to reload the page (reload never works & "attach file" button is dead)

    You can also set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to -1 to disable the timeout.

  • In Gmail. "Adobe Flash PLUGIN has Crashed" trying to ATTACH a file

    "Adobe Flash PLUGIN has Crashed" error message in Gmail when trying to attach a large file. Error pops up after 7 to 8 megs are uploaded.

    Thanks for that, I had this problem too and it solved it out for me.
    The only problem was to be able to find a flash video that would work,
    you might want to try to open a youtube link that somebody posted on facebook,
    and than right click it and disable hardware accelaration.

  • The adobe flash plugin has failed and none of the solutions have helped

    the adobe flash plugin has failed and none of the solutions listed in the help section works! I've tried all the solutions listed but none seems to work.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == it started a week ago

    Why is Flash now so unstable in Firefox? The Flash has crashed indicator is now a familiar visitor (it generally goes when I refresh the page so it's not hugely fatal!) But . . . I am having to go back to IE to check the reliability with my own sites - which are heavily dependent on flash for animation and video. What can be done? My Firefox and Flash installations are kept up to date. Really disappointing.
