Firefox 4.0 flash error

Having upgraded firefox to version 4.0 i seem to be experiencing flash content errors. The display of flash tends to have large blocks of color (generally white/grey) in the middle or near the edges of flash content. Many times this is around the buttons one can press.
My best example is when using hulu the screen showing latest shows will flicker with random boxes, many times this has to do with the position of my mouse over the flash box. Any help/known issues.
Using ubuntu 10.10 with firefox 4.0. Have shockwave flash 10.2

Hi again, LOL, sometimes it is just a small thing like clearing cookies/history that gets overlooked:-)
You know, can't see the Forrest for the Trees..
I'm glad it's working as it should for you!! We have enough to do, right? Like dealing with all of the Windows Patch Tuesday Updates, LOL
Thanks for marking your thread as answered too.

  • Firefox freeze whenever flash error happens

    I have the newest firefox and the flash debug version. Whenever there is  an flash error happen, the error message window popup, and then my  firefox freeze immediately. It seems like the problem only happen on  debug version of flash. I searched online, people said change the "dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs" to -1 will fix the problem, but I tried, it doesn't really fix it. Anyone know anything I could try to fix it?
    Thanks.

    Hi. karaoke I am not sure if its the same issue. The crash at language switch on my computer was due to the IME for Eastern Language Banks (Language option -> Detail under text services and input languages -> Properties -> reset/untick auto learn).
    If you are not using Eastern Language IME... I am sure others here have more experience and can better help you. =)

  • How do I fix the "shockwave flash" error, causing firefox to lock up, slow, or crash?

    continous errors about "shockwave flash", "script has stopped working" etc, causing numerous slowdowns, lock-ups, and crashes. have tried several fixes, but none have worked.....please advise

    Is it a permissions problem? Here's another way.
    (1) In a My Computer or Windows Explorer window, open this folder:
    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    If that folder does not exist, then you are using 32-bit Windows, and you can open the following folder instead:
    C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    ''(Note: This folder exists on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, but on 64-bit Windows Firefox uses the Flash player in the SysWOW64 folder instead.)''
    (2) Check for a file named mms.cfg:
    (A) ''If mms.cfg exists,'' drag it to your '''Documents folder''' where you can edit it without being bothered about administrator privileges
    (B) ''If mms.cfg does not exist,'' open your '''Documents folder''', right-click > New > Text File and name the new file mms.cfg
    (3) Open mms.cfg from Documents into a text editor such as Notepad. Add this on its own line (I put it last):
    ProtectedMode=0
    Save the file and close Notepad.
    (4) Hold down the Ctrl key and drag the mms.cfg file back to the Flash folder to make a copy there, keeping the original in Documents
    This change should take effect the next time you restart Firefox.
    Hopefully that works around the permission issue.

  • My 14.1 firefox , websites with flash contain or videos don't work & youtube give me a message "an error occurred please try again later"?

    '''Hi,

    ''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/934607]''

    Can you open up your Real Player and tell me what version you have? I think Real Player 15.0.6 is supposed to fix this problem. There was a conflict between Real Player and Flash this whole summer that broke Flash videos. Real Player released a update that might help in your case.
    If that doesn't help, I think a addon might be to blame here. So do this:
    <br> '''Firefox button <img src=https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/images/2012-03-27-09-22-48-1204f1.png> > Help > Troubleshooting Information'''
    <br> (or '''Tools > Help > Troubleshooting Information''')
    Then click the "Copy all to clipboard" button then paste it here. It will tell us what addons you have installed and I can see which one might be causing problems.

  • I get a recurring error in Firefox regarding Shockwave Flash not respoding, etc.  Firefox locks up.

    I get a recurring error in Firefox regarding Shockwave Flash not respoding, etc.  Firefox locks up.  I've uninstalled & reinstalled Shockwave & Flash Player to no avail.  Can't find an answer (Windows 7).  Is there one that works?  I've looked quite a few places on the internet.

    It seems you both did get lost and per accident ended in this place for last hope.
    For Yammers Microwave I would say to pull out the power plug as the perfect solution but Shockwave Flash is a complete mystery to me.

  • Download of firefox and adobe flash will not install file corrupt message

    cannot install firefox or adobe flash get file corrupt message:
    cannot play videos

    Try installing from the Offline Installer. It may be a temporary folder permissions error, so this may fix it. Here is a link to try to download from:
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe
    If that doesn't work, try this one: http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox/

  • You Tube not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after latest update

    You Tube and other sites are not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after latest update for both. Adobe Flash is working on other sites but not You tube and those sites that may have embedded You Tube videos, I'm not sure.
    Adobe Flash does not crash and no error message is showing. All that shows is a dark screen for the Flash video. Right clicking the screen shows only a non-clickable 'Movie not loaded' and the clickable link to the Adobe home page.
    I have spent an hour trying things as suggested for past problems similar to this but none have helped.
    I have sent sad face letting you know what I think of the latest update because of this which says pretty much the same thing as I have said here.
    I have no further info but if I had some input and queries form you I might be able to provide more.

    I'm not sure how to remove the 12.xxx version,. I don't understand why it is there, usually updates over wirte the old one as far as I know. I don't know where to find it.
    pref .js deleted.
    I could not find a user.js
    I disabled hardware acceleration on one of them, not sure which and I don't remember how I did it but think it must have been on the flash.
    No idea what protected mode is
    no new profile, I've never done this.
    Ok, did what you have said as much as I could. I have been fidgeting with things now for a couple hours. After doing a CCleaner and Registry cleanse, turning off and restarting the computer, the videos are now p-laying.
    I would still like to know how to find and get rid of the duplicate Flash plug in though if you would't mind.
    Thanks for the help.

  • I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox several times. Every time I try to open Firefox I get an error message saying "Close Firefox"," A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time."

    I uninstall Firefox, then reinstall Firefox, try to open Firefox, and get an error message in a popup box saying,
    "Close Firefox"
    "A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time."

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

    If you can't reinstall Firefox yourself then you need to contact your IT department and ask them to check the Firefox installation.
    It is possible that some files got broken with the latest update.

    You need to do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder before installing a newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
