Flash 10.3 .... not working in certain applications (YouTube, Comcast), etc/

Hi everyone - I've read several other posts from people who are having the same issue and have done way too many hours of searching, but I haven't found a solution yet.  I use IE 9 with Windows Vista.
I have uninstalled (to the best of my knowledge) all older versions of Flash and reinstalled whatever today's latest is ... 10.3 ---.  Rebooted (again and again and again).  I checked the test site at Adobe which indicates with a flashing red "R" that I have the most up-to-date version installed.  Checked add-ons and Shockwave Flash Object is enabled.  The current version shows up in my "add/remove programs" list.  But I still can't play a video directly from YouTube or view a weather report from my local channel - they both state I don't have Flash.  Also, my videos don't show up on my Comcast home page.  Interestingly, I'm having no problems at all via FB playing a friend's shared video from YouTube, or playing a silly FB game that requires Flash.
I'm about to reset my internet and trusted site settings to medium and enabling any and all scripting ... again!  I'll reboot after I send this post and see what happens.
I would LOVE suggestions!

Hello Regg, Would you mind starting a new discussion/thread? This one has been answered and it's better to have your own. You can copy & paste the info you have posted here, or when I see your new thread, I'll bring it over.
Doing this will help Jen not to start receiving all of the email notifications too:-)
P.S. To Jen: youtube is having issues, so don't think your computer or Flash Player is the cause if you get a black screen.
Thanks,

  • 'Tap to click' not working in certain applications in Vista SP2

    System: Alu Macbook c2d 2.4ghz (late 2008)
    Bootcamp version 3/3.1 (Latest)
    Windows Vista SP2
    OS X 10.6.2
    OK, insignificant problem, but to explain;
    I have the Bootcamp control panel installed in Windows Vista under Bootcamp, and for the last 5 months, all has worked perfectly. 'Tap to click' has never had any problems anywhere in Windows, or related applications.
    For the last few months I have run a game, Championship Manager 01/02 under Windows XP, in OS X 10.6, via VMWare 2. No issues at all, other than it wasn't the fastest. Tap to click worked fine in XP, and in the game.
    A few days ago I gave my disks of VMWare and Vista to a family member as I didn't need them anymore, and planned to delete them both from my system. I then booted into Bootcamp where I run Vista SP2, and installed CM 01/02 directly onto the Windows system.
    All worked and installed fine.... other than in CM 01/02 only, 'tap to click' does not work at all! I have to physically 'click' the keypad, which *****, is loud, and is a real pain.
    I rechecked in XP under VMWare, and it works there, so I reinstalled under Windows Vista in Bootcamp, and again, no go.
    I am just wondering if anyone may be able to tell me why this would happen just in this one application, and how I can go about fixing it!
    TIA
    Marc

    After accidentally pressing down on the Magic Trackpad, I realized the trackpad has tactile feedback, that is, it is a big button that can be pressed down and pop back up like old computer mice. Though this will allow the trackpad to select the account I want to open in the Login Window, it still doesn't explain why "tap to click" isn't working in the Login Window. Nevertheless, my question can be considered as answered.

  • Flash player does not work in Windows 8 tiles

    Flash player does not work in Windows 8 start metro tile applications. Flash player also does not work in Windows 8 start tile internet explorer 10 1n windows 8. Flash player does work in Windows 8 desktop internet Explorer 10. I tried all of the recommended fixes suggested by adobe Flash Player Issues/windows 8 page. I have reinstalled Windows 8 operating system.  What should I try next?

    This is a known issue with Flash Pro CC - GM build.
    this crash has been fixed in the update that was released recently. Please update to 13.0.1.808 version and it should fix this.
    Please reply if it still persists after the update.

  • FaceTime HD Camera (Display) not working with most applications

    The Thunderbolt 27" LED Cinema displays built in camera is not working with most applications. The camera does not work with FaceTime, iChat, Skype and Google Talk. FaceTime says "There is no connected camera", even though there is. Weird thing is it DOES work at http://www.testmycam.com. I can't get it to work with any other flash based apps, just testmycam.com.
    My MacBook Pro 17" (late 2011) built in camera works perfectly with everything.
    Things I've already tried:
    - Shutdown
    - Restart
    - disconnect/reconnect
    - removing power from display
    lame, lame, lame. $1k monitor, flippin' webcam doesn't work.

    I think I have found the problem. I decided to go page by page through the forums and found this argument when running a Java program through the console:
    -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true
    So it would be like:
    java -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true SwingSet2
    That works flawlessly, so it has to do with direct draw (So it's either DirectX or my video card drivers which are up to date).

  • Flash player is not working whenever I switch to airport connection

    Any further ideas? Or tips on how I could try debugging this? Console gives me squat.

    Crashes or other problems with certain multimedia content in Firefox (such as Youtube videos and Flash animations or games) can often be resolved by performing the steps in these Knowledge Base articles:

  • My flash flayer does not work on my Windows 8 Surface Tablet, it also won't let me see if i already

    My flash flayer does not work on my Windows 8 Surface Tablet, it also won't let me see if i already have it installed...

    1.      Are you getting any error message?
    2.      Which browser are you using?
    3.      Were there any recent changes made on the computer prior to the issue?

  • My flash player does not work on my tablet.

    My flash player does not work on my tablet

    Your tablet uses Android OS.
    There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player. Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it drains your battery, also shortening the life of it. Android (Google) recommends using either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" as your browser if you need to view Flash content with a mobile device running Android. They're both free in the GooglePlay store. These browsers use "server side" rendering to reduce the load on your device.

  • Flash Player does not work with Standard User, but will work when browser is "Run as Administrator"

    I don't understand why this is happening, but Flash Player will not work when a Standard User is using the browser. It will only work when the browser is run as an administrator. Any way to fix this? I've tried to uninstall, and reinstall the player, and it still wouldn't work.
    The user is on Windows 7, 64-bit. Using IE 10.
    Flash not working for Standard User - YouTube

    Any update to provide at all here guys?  Again, in my situation, it's very much rights-related as a standard user doesn't even report that the flash player exists when testing it on the Adobe Flash Version Detection website (despite it showing up in Control Panel and under Add/Remove Programs).  I've already tried giving the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed and files/subfolders appropriate permissions for the standard user and still nothing.  If I either give the user in question full local admin rights or logon as the domain admin, then the Adobe Flash Version Detection website says Flash is installed and Flash works fine.

  • Flash Player does not work after steps to resolution

    I am using Windows 8.1 and flash player will not work.  I have "enabled" and removed Active X control as per instructions but it still does not work.

    8.1 means Ie11... and that means...
    "User-Agent Strings"
    That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
    Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
    The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
    Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess thay've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
    They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Flash player does not work under one user account.

    Flash player does not work under one of my user accounts.
    My system: I work with a mac mini with Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    What I have done:
    I installed the flash player maybe one year ago under my "first" user account. At that time this user account had had administrator authorization. In the meantime I had to change this "first" user account in an account without administrator authorization and created an administrator user with which I installed different programms. Lately, the message came up that it would be necessary to update the flash player. I did it; under the "first" user account, but of course with the administrator's password for installing. The installation had been "successful" - so I was told. But it did not run. I tried it again and again. Each time with "deinstallation" first. No way; it did not work.
    After asking Adobe for the reason of the problem, they suggested to install the programm directly under the administrator user. I did that (of course after deinstalling under the "first" user account) with the result, that flash player runs under my administrator and my "second" user account, but not under the first user account. There I am always told to update my flash player.
    With this result, I talked to Adobe. So they told me to contact the producer of the operating software, since this would be a mistake of the operating software.
    And here I am - full of hope to get help from you.
    Thanks for reading. And thanks in advance for helping me.

  • Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1?

    Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1 64, If i try and play a video I get the message to install Flashplayer.
    If I try and install it it says it is already installed. Your onsite  installer says it is not applicable to my machine.
    I have followed all the normal steps re enabling addons and active filters etc.
    all to no avail Pc is Dell 6 months old, Flashplayer has never worked on this machine. Last MS update mid Dec 2014.
    Version of flashplayer is 15....03.......

    Flash Player is a built-in component of Internet Explorer.  There's nothing separate to download or install.
    Firefox requires a different version of Flash Player (the NPAPI plug-in), which will be served to you if you go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Firefox; however, there are some unique stability issues related to Firefox on Win8.1, and you're probably better off using Google Chrome if you want a more optimal experience with Flash Player.
    For problems where IE isn't being detected by sites that require Flash:
    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

  • Flash player will not work on my computer, would love advice

    I have windows vista.  When I visit a web page that requires flash, it instructs me to download it (even though I'm sure I have it ialready...).  I do so, it says it has downloaded successfully but I still cannot view the website.  I have uninstalled my current version of flash and reinstalled the latest version numerous times.  It even shows up in my list of programs.  But each time I visit a site that uses it, it tells me I need flash to view it.  Very frustrating.  And suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    This was very helpful - thank you.  I unchecked "active x filtering" and it seems to be working, under tools in IE.  a simple solution, that may have taken me days to figure out myself!  Hopefully it continues to work from thiis point forward.  Thanks!
