Firefox crashes when using Adobe Flash

I am using the newest version of Firefox (5.0.1) and the newest version of Adobe Flash (10.3.183.5) without any other add-ons. For some reason Firefox keeps crashing when playing Flash. Anything from Youtube, Flash webpages, online games, etc. It's not just the Flash add-on that crashes, but the entire browser.
I have to force it to close it via Task Manager (Windows 7 Professional).
When looking at the crash reports (about:crashes), it says there are none.
I have tried restarting, uninstalling both add-on and browser and I have even reinstalled my entire operating system. Nothing has changed.
This is obviously not my fault. Please fix this.

Hi roy6640,
Have you looked at the Knowledge Base articles [[Troubleshooting plugins]] or [[Using the Adobe Reader plugin with Firefox]]? There is some good information in there. You may want to try reinstalling the plugin as well or updating it if it is out of date.
Hopefully this helps!

Firefox crashes when using Google as startpage

Firefox crashes and gives me a general error mesage that it had to close down for certain reasons.
This only happens when I use Google as my startpage.
If I use any other website as startpage all works well and I can go to Google from there and everything works.
In short: FF crashes at start-up only when using Google as starpage, I see the Google page very briefly and then FF crashes.
I would realy like any solution because I have always used Google as startpage and want to keep it that way without having to start with i.e. altavista and go to google from there.

A possible workaround for now is to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Firefox crashes when opening new tab

Crash-ID: bp-681f1751-fc5b-4f14-a30b-f93ed2150407
I have tryed:
Clean install (with removing of C:prog..\mozilla)
Uninstalling and deleting extensions
Restarted Firefox in safe mode without addons/extensions.
Uninstalling/updating flash/adobe
I can start firefox, but when i press the "+" to open a new tab Firefox closes and "Mozilla Crash-report" window opens.
It seems like firefox it self can open a tab. For example when i do a fresh installation, Firefox opens with 2 tabs.
But when i want to open one it fails and Firefox shuts down. Its really wierd because i have never run in to this kind of problem before and i dont recall installing anything new before this problem showed up.

What is the setting of the new tab page?
You can check the browser.newtab.url pref on the about:config page.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

Thx! For some reason the string was set to "about:newtab" or something like that. Changed the name to my default homepage and the problem was fixed. Any ideas on why this happend? I didn't change it myself.
Never the less! Thank you for saving my haircolour from turning gray of frustration. Was worried i had to turn to Chrome or.... IE....

Firefox crashes when using youtube, soundcloud on x86_64 and nvidia

Hello everyone
For the past 6 months or so Firefox has been crashing on me and the only error I get is from dmesg saying:
[118237.001846] Chrome_ChildThr[2120]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f3211f66391 sp 00007f31fc8ac500 error 6 in libmozalloc.so[7f3211f65000+2000]
Is this a hardware issue or maybe a flash issue? Because I did a fresh install of Arch about a month ago hoping to fix the issue and it hasn't solved the problem.
I'm not sure if it's caused by using youtube or soundcloud, but I think it's crashed a few times when I'm not using either of them.
Does anyone has any sugestiong for how I can debug or look deeper into what is causing this issue?
The only thing the mozilla wiki said was to look at the mozzilla crash reporter output, but that doesn't exist on 64bit
Arch x86_64
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
Nviida 480GTX @ Nvidia 343.22
Thanks

As it turns out, Skype also crashes if I try to use video - so I'm forced to confront the possibility that the problem is actually with my PC, or the updates windows has just installed.

Firefox crashes when using Chinese (Taiwan) Phonetic Input

I am currently running Firefox 3.6 on Windows 7. Whenever I use the Chinese (Taiwan) Phonetic Input, Firefox automatically crashes at the point when I select the character from the drop-down menu. This is a recurring problem, not a random one. I now have to resort to installing and using Google Pinyin, which does not crash, but is less preferable for me. I have never encountered this problem before when running Firefox 3.6 on Windows XP.

i've got two iphone (one is 4S and other is iphone 4) both have the same issue on IOS 5.0.1 .
have to reboot to get it fixed for a day or two.

Firefox crashes when using Flash video (and Chrome does too); having uninstalled Flash, it won't reinstall

Going to youtube crashes my browser; going to youtube with noscript on, and allowing the videos, does the same - as does using google talk's built-in video chat. I assumed something was wrong with Flash, but checking via about:crashes gives me nothing. I downloaded the flash uninstaller from adobe's website but now, when I try to get flash again, the program crashes. Maybe something's wrong with my PC, not with Firefox...but I simply have no idea.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== this morning I started up my computer after a supposed crash (although I suspect it was the Vista automatic updater/restarter cropping up while I was asleep). Skype's exe was corrupted and I had to reinstall; then FF wouldn't work with flash.

As it turns out, Skype also crashes if I try to use video - so I'm forced to confront the possibility that the problem is actually with my PC, or the updates windows has just installed.

Firefox crashes when closing a tab

Well, the title says it all.
I don't know if it is coming from the addons or Firefox itself. If you have two tabs and if you close one of the tabs. It freezes and it will say not responding. Eventually, it will close the tab.

Actually, never mind. I got this fixed. Apparently, MSN Toolbar is the issue. I uninstalled it from my computer and it is working fine. Thanks, anyway.

Safari and Firefox crash when using Adobe Shockwave

Hi
I have done some research and it seems that this is an old problem but I haven't managed to find a solution. I am trying to watch an animation that uses Adobe Shockwave. I have run it on my old PC using explorer and there isn't a problem bit when i run it on my Mac it shuts down the browser and says there is an error with the IMLLib plug-in.
Does anyone know what this means?
I have uninstalled everything and installed latest versions of everything and still it kicks me out!!!
Any tips advice or info would be very much appreciated!

Hi Fireflower,
Welcome to Discussions!
Just to clarify, do you mean Adobe Shockwave or Adobe Flash? Could you give us an example of an animation that you've tried to watch unsuccessfully?

Firefox crashes when I try to use DataLoad, and I was able to use this program a month ago.

In the recent past I have been able to use a program called DATALOAD (shareware) to load data into Firefox web forms (specifically web based sales tax returns).
However, now every time I try it now Firefox crashes, so I am forced to use IE (which I hate). The last time I used Dataload was in April 2011 (for my quarterly tax returns).
On of the latest updates to Firefox must have a conflict with this program.
Can you please research to see what changed in Firefox to make it crash when using Dataload? I do not want to use IE if I do not have to.
