Flash 10 works on IE 8 but not AOL

I finally got Flash Player 10 to work if I use IE 8 to access videos on the web.  Have spent many hours to get FP to work in AOL (have both 9.5 and 9.0VR installed).  Have done LiveChat with FIVE different AOL people. OS is Vista Home 32 bit.  Have uninstalled and reinstalled many times; rebuilt AOL Adapter file; Cleared My Footprints; AOL Pop Up Controls-all animated media is allowed; done an AOL Quick Restore; cleared FP cache; in FP Website Storage Settings Panel-deleted all sites; made some changes in the sinf file.  I have tried the Adobe link to their ActiveX control content debugger for IE but can't get that one to work.  FP still doesn't work in AOL.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Try loading any video on youtube.com , if it loads correctly then flash plugin doesn't have any problem. 
Also try downlaoding newer version of flash player plugin to your firefox browser from site  http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.
Also check if you have enabled javascript calls on your browser . use firebug addon/extension for firefox which helps you in debugging of javascript in HTML page.
Thanks,
Sudheendra

  • Firefox keeps asking to install Flash. When I attempt this, I get an error message stating it failed. Flash works in Google Chrome, but not FF.

    I don't know what happened but Firefox keeps asking me to install Flash. When I attempt to install the program, I get an error message that it has failed. There is no other information given and I'm just left hanging. I've tried this over twenty times with the same results. I've even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox, but this continues. I'm unable to watch any YouTube videos. I then installed Google Chrome and all is working fine. I can't stand the Google company though and really with I could continue using Firefox. Why is GC working for me any FF not? How can I fix this?

    Google Chrome comes with its own Flash plugin, so doesn't require to install Flash separately.
    You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page.

    You may have to run the Flash installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator) and make sure that Firefox and possibly other browsers are closed.

  • Flash works in some places, but not others....

    It seems my problem has changed from what I origonally thought it was. I thought my flash player didn't work at all. Mainly because I typically use it for one thing, and that one thing wasn't working (photobucket). After trying to uninstall flash, reinstall it and getting the "getPlus+(R) installation corrupt error", I did some more reading and research.
    I followed this link - www.adobe.com/software/flash/about - and it says I have ver. 10,0,32,18 installed. So that is good, it's installed but it still doesn't work everywhere.
    I've tried youtube and it works just fine.
    The problems I am mainly having is with Photobucket. When I go to my own Photobucket acct. and play a video from my acct. it works but it is painfully slow to load. I might wait up to 2-3 minutes for one of my own videos to load so that I can watch it. This never took more than 10-20 seconds to load before.
    Now when I follow a link posted on a forum that is a video link from another persons Photobucket acct. is where the real problem is. It won't play at all. The player loads, but the screen freezes with the first image of the video. The taskbar shows it is still loading, but it never loads. After a few minutes the taskbar shows 'done', but nothing has changed. The video is still frozen at the beginning and it shows me a pause button in the bottom left, like it is playing....but of course it is not.
    Also, more often than not, while the video is trying to load the web browser will be "not responding", the computer freezes, and I have to end all tasks and restart the browser. This is really driving me crazy....
    I am running Vista Home Premium 64-bit SP1. I used to use IE7. I have now switched to Firefox 3.5, and there is no difference between the two web browsers as far as this problem is concerned.
    TIA for any help with this.
    Chris

    Well, I think there are some big clues here that tell you where you should be pointing..  I haven't read any of your other posts though, so I may be missing something...
    " used to use IE7. I have now switched to Firefox 3.5, and there is no difference between the two web browsers as far as this problem is concerned."
    "I've tried youtube and it works just fine."
    "When I go to my own Photobucket acct. and play a video from my acct. it works but it is painfully slow to load"
    Here's what that says to me... you do not have a problem. Flash Player is installed and running.  It's Photobucket that has the problem, and that problem lies in their code and/or their network.  In this scenario there is virtually nothing we can do for your from the Adobe side of the equation. The fact that both the Flash Player activeX control in IE AND the Flash Player plugin behave the same way indicates to me that this is something Photobucket needs to look into.
    So, what can you do?
    1. Gather a bit more info.  Get a list of similar sites that work fine (Flicker, for example, would be good becuase it's similar)
    2. Uninstall Flash Player 10 and get an old Flash Player 9 install from the Archived Players technote:
               "Archived Flash Players available for testing purposes"   http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html   
              (This assumes that Photobucket doesn't require Flash Player 10.  If they do this step won't work.  But if they do not require Flash Player 10, then testing with Flash Player 9 can help tell them if the problem was introduced by changes made to Flash Player 10 that they need to code for specifically)
    3. Open a support case with Photobucket
    Now, is it entirely impossible that there could be some Flash Player issue here? No, it's not.  But it's the kind of issue that Photobucket would have to find, then they work with us directly to address it.  Nearly impossible to do from the end user point of view because you have no insight into what their code is doing.

  • Flash works on some websites but not others

    I have been struggling with some Flash player issues for a
    while. Most of these were, I believe, due to a spyware infection
    that I have since resolved. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall
    the player plugin several times. I have gotten to the point where
    the Flash player plugin works for nearly every website I can find,
    in Firefox and in IE7. The only thing that does not work is when I
    go to ESPN.com while using my university wireless network
    connection -- certain Flash-related aspects of this page show error
    messages or do not show at all. After having visited this site,
    even when I use my laptop computer on a different wireless network
    connection, this site is always corrupted in this fashion. When I
    uninstall the Flash player plugin and reinstall it, these aspects
    of ESPN's website function properly, but only when I am not using
    my university connection.
    All other websites seem to be fine, but ESPN is a site I
    visit a lot and I'm at a loss as to what to do. I have never had a
    problem installing the player, and I use WIndows XP Home so I have
    not used the SubinACL program to fix my Windows system registry.
    I've read and tried most of the other solutions in this forum and
    they do not seem to solve my specific problem. Any help anyone
    could give would be appreciated.

    It seems to be accessible, yes. It's listed as
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.9\CLSID. I can give
    you the data string if you like. I've really never edited my system
    registry so I'm not sure what I'm doing.

  • Flash working on some computers - but not others

    Good afternoon,
    We had a third party flash developer build out the flash
    navigation and masthead videos for a client's web site and although
    it works fine on my computer (and on the developer's computer), it
    does not work on any of the client's computers or my partner's
    computers.
    Here is the web site in question:
    www.quigleysimpson.com/index2.html
    According to the client and to my partner, the video cuts out
    after a second or two, and some of the navigation links are coming
    up 'not found' (e.g. the Multi-Cultural link in the top
    navigation).
    Upgrading to the latest version of Flash Player was the first
    thing we did, and the problem still exists. I can't for the life of
    me figure out why.
    Any help would be most appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Cynthia

    I understand that neither method did the repairs you are seeking. My post was a side-note information update for you and others who read these posts, that we haven't had to boot from the install DVD to do a Permissions Repair since Tiger (I think)or maybe even Panther (doesn't matter when the requirement was dropped anyway), and that you can actually set some permissions wrong by using the boot DVD because of changes in the OS since it was installed.
    For your problem I recommend creating a new temporary Admin user account and seeing if the problem continues in the new account. If it does, then the problem is in the OS, which can be re-installed over the top of your existing installation (without affecting your files in your user accounts). If the problem goes away, then it could be incompatible or corrupted preference files or other incompatible programs in the user account causing the problems. Right now you haven't isolated the problem to either possibility.

  • Adobe Flash 10.1 works on admin login but not other logins

    Latest Adobe Flash 10.1 (7/25/10) works on admin login but not other logins despite being installed "for all users". No change from 32-bit to 64-bit Internet Explorer 8 running under Windows 7. Repeated uninstalls/reinstalls/reboots has no effect. Using online uninstaller also has no effect. User Account Control is OFF. Interestingly enough, the same situation occurs on another computer with the same environment except running Vista. Any thoughts would be helpful to [email protected] Thank you!

  • Ipod works on one computer but not the other?

    Can someone please help me? My ipod works on my laptop but not the desktop. When I plug the Ipod into the desktop it sometimes shows up in Itunes but says it's corrupt. Which it obviously isn't because it works fine on it's own when not plugged into a computer and it works fine when I plug it into the laptop. Also when I looked in my computer the Ipod would show up as drive j and it would flash on and off. Well, I tried plugging the Ipod into a different port and that worked as far as drive j stopped flashing on and off. I tried changing the drive name and it wouldn't let me because it always went back to drive j even after I changed it to drive z. Itunes is playing music and is up to date. I have Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit. Please help.

  • Trouble playing .swf - works offline in browser but not online on website

    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble displaying a flash .swf file properly on my website: http://dreamriderproductions.com/fun/game-test/
    When I view the .swf file locally on Chrome, I get a text box to enter my name and I can click Go and keep playing the game. For some reason, when it's up on the website, there's no text box so I can't progress. Can you?
    Background: The game did used to connect to a database, but the upgrade of our website (and relocation of the swf) seems to have broken the database connection. People couldn't progress past the first screen presumable because the information on which city they were in couldn't be submitted to the database. We've got a version of the game with the database connection disabled and so the game should now work - it works locally for me but not on the website!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Sion

    The code you have posted is not the same code as used in:
    <div id="gallery">
    in the link above.
    The reason that the Flash is not displaying in FF is that the portion of the code used by FF was omitted. The code currently used on the page only works in IE.
    I'm no great fan of the IE conditional statements used in the code you posted so I don't blame you for not using it. But you do need to provide something for FF.... the old, out dated method would be to add and <embed> for FF... here's the newer method..
    So either use code you posted above or better yet, get rid of that and replace the current <object> with
    <div id="gallery">
    <object id="FlashID" data="flash/201.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="958" height="242">
       <param name="movie" value="flash/201.swf">
       <param name="quality" value="high" />
         <param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
         <param name="swfversion" value="6.0.65.0"/>
    </object>
    </div>
    Give that a try. Will work in both FF and newer IE versions.

  • How do I troubleshoot installation/distribution of a LabVIEW .exe which processes data using Matlab when it works on some computers but not others?

    I've been given the unenviable task of troubleshooting and installing/distributing software written by a former co-worker. I've modified the LabVIEW code and built an .exe file. I've successfully installed the Labview .exe file on several computers, but it won't work on some others. What's more baffling is that I installed it successfully on one computer, uninstalled it, and tried reinstalling it with no success. In fact, it's a new error (Dr. Watson for Windows NT application error). It doesn't help that I have different versions of LabVIEW and Matlab on the target computers. Some have LabVIEW 5.1, some
    have 5.0, and some don't have it at all. Some have Matlab 5.2, some have 5.3 (R11) and some have 6.0 (R12). It's also not clear to me where the Matlab m files should be located. I'm not sure if it's a LabVIEW Runtime Engine problem, or if it's a Matlab problem. I've also wondered how LabVIEW and Matlab talk to each other. When LabVIEW calls Matlab, it seems that Matlab is running in the background. In other words, clicking on the Matlab Command Window and typing "whos" or any other command/variable doesn't work.

  • Site works in the app, but not in the browser.

    Hello iWeb experts,
    I've got problems.
    Last night I published my site. And while it appears, and functions, properly in my iWeb app, it doesn't do the same in Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
    Two issues...
    FONTS
    I chose Bellamie, Univers Condensed, and Marydale as my fonts. From reading these forums, I've discovered those won't wysiwyg on other computers if the fonts aren't available and open on them. So my two choices are to make every bit of text a graphic or to use a set of more universal fonts, correct? So my questions are...One, is there a list somewhere of fonts that will work in any browser? And, two, is there a short-cut, or easy way to transform type into a graphic without having to create image files?
    FUNCTIONS
    Here are the functions that work fine in iWeb but have gone haywire in all of the browsers I tested...
    • The type in one nav link appears smaller than all the rest.
    • Some links are active, others are not.
    • Rollover highlighting works on some links, but not others.
    • Most of the rollover links appear in the proper static color, a few do not.
    I've tested these functions on three Macs, one PC, and in the three browsers mentioned above. All of them show the exact same problems. So something must be going wrong with iWebs coding, or my host server musn't like iWeb.
    Any thoughts, suggestions on these two issues? Thanks much for any advice.
    John

    When I drag across your page most of your links do not change. The "text" portion of them doesn't change, either. Something is covering them.
    I can see that. But for the life of me, I don't know what could be covering those links. In my app, when I click in the area of the links, the type is the first item selected. Unless, possibly, it could somehow be the faint reflection of my black-and-white image (me & the ground I stand on). Hmmm...

    This I don't see. An outline? As in "an object outline," or as in "a list of dimensions and locations?" When I click outside my page contents, I get nothing.
    Thanks, QTK. I truly appreciate your troubleshooting here.

    You would have to change it back to your old email address in order to turn off "Find My iPhone" on your devices. After you changed it back to your old address and deactivated "Find My iPhone" (activation lock) you could change your Apple ID to your new address again. Now it should wok on all your devices.
