Flash 11, does not play some content, cannot fix

I updated to flash 11 this past week, worst decision ever.  This is what is going on, and the steps I've taken to resolve it.
OS: Windows 7 64 bit professional edition.
Browsers:  Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IE 9
Thursday (before update): Have had an issue with a facebook game, would load the game, but not the "invite neighbors" or "send gifts" type of page.  I decided to clear my flash cache.  After doing so, the game didn't load at all.  This is what led me to update my flash player.
Friday - Updated to flash 11.  Game didn't work at all, I couldn't load the video on www.watchtheguild.com (it always loaded the most recent episode on the default page, no longer...).  Youtube works, I play flash games on kongregate (most do NOT work, only tyrant does that i have found).  When I try loading something that doesn't work, it's just a black screen, nothing else. I've tried setting storage settings to unlimited and walking away to see if it eventually loads.. it doesn't.
Friday&Saturday - uninstalled, reinstalled, unistalled, reinstalled, checked settings, cleared caches, checked plugins enabled, etc. etc. etc.  googled googled googled.  (FYI - for each install/uninstall I right click and run as admin). 
Sunday(today) - did the registry thing with subinacl + reset fp10.... twice.  The issue is consistent with all browsers, so you would think it was the registry right? apparently not. 
I'm out of ideas here.  I've tried shuttting down my anti virus (AVG), and all background programs from the task manager before install/uninstall.  I'm downloading an archived versin of 10.1 in hopes that I can get back what I had before, somehow I doubt it.
I do have adobe flash professional cs5, could that be an issue?!?!?!?  I need help and ideas on what I can do next aside from reformatting my entire F*&*^$@# hard drive and starting over entirely from scratch, which I do not want to do since it would take weeks to get back what I have on my PC. 
Should I try uninstalling adobe development stuff? I'm going crazy here.

ManaBarbie,
Sorry to notice your post and your situation as well. You said you cleared flash cache. Which file(s) did you remove?

    My iphone 4 does not play some songs, that previosly it did

    Im having a similar problem since i upgraded to IOS5, ive read on other forums that some people's music hasnt even showed up, so they did a soft reset (turned it off and on again) which worked for them.
    It didnt for me, i have found some of the songs will play if i press the repeat once button, but this isnt really fixing the problem.

  • Flash 10.1 installs in Vista and XP but will not play some content

    I started this morning by thinking the problem I am experiencing with Flash Player 10.1 is a version of the problem discussed in this forum  under "Flash 10.1 not working in User account."  I now recognize that it is a different problem.
    First, FP 10.1 (specifically v. 10.1.53.64) installs fine either in Vista Ultimate 64 (IE Active-X or FireFox Add-in--I use and work in an administrator account) or XP (multiboot machine).  I can confirm the installation at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html and the FLVs at http://www.acpmh.unimelb.edu.au/resources/resources-education.html play with no problem.
    Some content, however, simply will not play.  I need badly to look at http://library.creativecow.net/articles/hansen_jaysen/growing/video-tutorial.php and it hangs and tells me I need Flash Player--both in IE and FF.  I have repeatedly uninstalled FP, rebooted, and reinstalled but that doesn't change anything.  Worse still, since I use Adobe Connect a lot, Connect hangs when I try to enter a meeting.  Exactly the same thing occurs on my laptop which runs Vista 64 Home.
    I have tried everything I can think of and searched with every strategy that seems promising but I have found nothing on this problem.  Surely I can't be the only person experiencing this!. Does anyone have any idea what is going on and how to deal with this problem?
    Thanks in advance!!!

    I have exactly the same problem as the OP, on both my desktop (Windows XP) and my laptop (Windows Vista).  Both PCs have the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, Opera and IE but no browser on either PC will display video content from the BBC website bbc.co.uk/news any more.  Before the Flash Player 10.1 upgrade about 10 days ago everything worked fine.
    It still works on YouTube videos and the OP's http://www.acpmh.unimelb.edu.au/resources/resources-education.html but it won't play http://library.creativecow.net/articles/hansen_jaysen/growing/video-tutorial.php that the OP wants to view.
    All that happens is that the first static frame is shown, but the 'telephone dial' animated icon (circle of white dots) just keeps going around forever and everything stays frozen and there's no sound.  Except when I've uninstalled Flash, there is no error message.  I've tried going back to a System Restore point but it didn't work; perhaps it's not far back enough.
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ confirms that I have the latest Flash version 10.1.53.64, it says it's successfully installed and plays the rotating 'italic F' animation.  Incidentally, that's a better test page than http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html as referenced by the OP which seems out of date and claims that 10.0 is the latest version.
    I've temporarily switched off my Firewall (Windows or Zone Alarm).  I've uninstalled and re-installed Flash several times for each browser on each PC, using both the Vista Control Panel and Adobe's uninstaller, I've tried switching off the hardware acceleration but nothing has fixed the problem.
    Some other points (sorry if they are red herrings, please excuse my ignorance):-
    If you uninstall Flash but find the test page still works, remember that the Chrome browser has Flash embedded within it.  See http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=108086dobe Flash?
    Is Shockwave Player the same as Adobe's Flash player?  Very confusing!
    Apologies if this hasn't solved your problem, but perhaps it shows that something in Flash Player 10.1.53.64 really is broken.  If some sites never work any more but others will, it's just too much of a coincidence !

  • DVD drive does not play some DVDs properly

    Hi,
    My Macbook was purchased in 2007; So it is a bit old. I haven't used the DVD drive very often.
    I bought two new DVDs from Amazon recently. However, when I played them in my Macbook using DVD Player, the disk pauses and skips very often, making it impossible to watch the DVD. In addition, the Player would display the "Skip over damaged data" warning.
    I thought it was a problem with the software (DVD Player); so I installed the VLC player. Problems occurred as well. Disk would pause and then simply stop (the screen closes).
    I thought that perhaps it was the problem with the Amazon DVD disk. So I played some other DVDs in my Macbook, with both DVD Player and VLC Player. There was NO problem at all with the other DVDs.
    Then my conclusion was that the Amazon DVD was faulty. I requested a replacement, which they sent to me promptly within a day.
    However, the same problem occured. The replacement DVD would not play properly in either DVD Player or VLC Player in my Macbook. It would pause and skip very frequenntly.
    Now I began to suspect that maybe the Optical Drive was faulty. So I brought the DVD to my school and tried to play it in two computers: one PC (with VLC); the other Mac (DVD Player). To my surprise, the DVD played flawlessly in those two computers.
    Now my conclusion is that the optical drive of my Macbook is faulty.
    However, after doing some preliminary research on the internet, I find that replacing the internal optical drive is a difficult process. The alternative seems to be buying an external drive. But there seems to be concern about booting the computer (when the need arises) from an external optical drive.
    Questions:
    1. Is my conclusion justified? (That I have a faulty optical DVD drive)
    2. If the optical drive is faulty, then why do some DVDs play with no problem in my Macbook?
    3. Would you recommend replacing the internal drive or puchasing an external optical drive? What are the advantages and disadvantages to both?
    Thanks a lot!

    Thanks again. I went ahead and deleted the DVD Player folder and the plist file.
    The result is that it appeared to temporarily improve the playback of the DVD. For the first two hours, the DVD paused considerably less and each pause was of a relatively short duration. There was much less skipping. So the playback was almost tolerable, if I lower my standards.
    However, after two hours, it reverted to its old ways. The pauses and skipping became so frequent and long (as before) to make the DVD simply unwatchable.
    I don't know what to make of this.

  • Video in Flash player does not play in C6

    I have purchased Nokia C6-00, but in this phone videos do not play in Flash player. It gives me warning message that flash player required to play this video. On flash player site, it is mentioned that android 2.2 is required to install Flash player on your mobile.
    How is it possible to play video in flash player on Nokia C6-00? 

    Symbian anna (new software version) update is available for C6-01 and C7 but there is no software update for C6-00 (with QWERTY keypad).
    I am eagrly waiting for software update for C6-00. At least to provide support of FLASH LITE 4.0 so that flash video can be played on C6-00 handset.
    I am facing one more problem with Skype utility on C6-00. I have installed latest Skype version on my mobile but even with 3.5G network speed, Skype login does not work.
    When ever I sign-in on Skype, it will become idle in between signing process and nothing is happened and after frustration I have to close Skype application.

  • HD Flash Video does not play smoothly on brand new Mac Mini

    I just bought a new Apple Mac Mini (2.5GHz model with discrete 256Mb AMD Radeon HD 6630M graphics card, OS X 10.7.3). One thing I bought it for was watching HD video on the BBC iPlayer site here in the UK, but I found that it won't play it smoothly. It drops frames, particularly noticable as the camera pans. I'm using Safari and the current 11.1 Flash Player, but I've tried the latest release candidate too (11,2,202,221). The videos are 720p 50Hz, H.264 encoded, 3.2 Mbps, and use 80% - 100% CPU, so it seems to me that I don't have hardware acceleration. Enabling or disabling hardware accleration doesn't seem to make a difference.
    I'd like to test it with other HD H.264 Flash videos, but I can't find any. Can anyone point me to some?

    Not all video will have full hardware acceleration (stage video) enabled.  Can you try the following link?
    http://youtu.be/SHZFsJKlsuA?hd=1
    I just gave this a try with Chrome on my Macbook Pro (15", mid 2010) and Flash used between 8% - 25% cpu, the average being somewhere below 15%.

  • Imported Flash files are not playing in published output

    Adobe Presenter 7 with the latest updates and PowerPoint 2007
    When I insert a Captivate 3 generated Flash file into a Presenter slide, the flash file does not play in the Published output. The slide's image is displayed for 5 seconds and then stops.
    After further review, I found that my imported Flash files are not included in the output. Any ideas?
    Terry

    Hi Terry,
    It's been awhile since I've messed around w/ Captivate 3, but I have a quick question: does your Captivate content include a skin.swf file?  If so, then you may have to look at a couple of different solutions to fix the playback problem that you're seeing with Presenter.
    One fix includes eliminating the skin by turning the borders option off which will eliminate the "_skin.swf" file. That'll be one less file to deal with, but you need to do that BEFORE publishing in Captivate.  From there, you should end up with one swf file from your Captivate content; and then at that point you can include that swf in your Presenter content.
    And while we're at it....are you using any Full Motion Recordings at all?  I've seen instances where, as you reported, Captivate content will run for awhile, but then the screen "goes blank"...so I'm just curious to know if your Captivate content in actuality has many more files than the "base" swf---which is probably the swf you included in PowerPoint.
    Having said that, can you share more information about what your Captivate project looks like (in terms of the number of swf files you're working with, etc), and let's see if we can resolve this for you.

    Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash update and/or a malfunctioning browser plugin such as Real Player.

  • Flash audio player not playing in safari (it shows but does not play).

    Basically i own an internet radio station and for some reason the web player (flash player) no longer plays in Safari since i upgraded to OS X Lion, was working before but not now, it does show the player it just does not play any audio, however it does work in Google Chrome.. any ideas why its no longer working since installing Lion??

    The error is "Internet Explorer has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then when I click on the Windows solutions icon, it says:
    Adobe Flash Player has stopped working properly.
    To troubleshoot this problem, follow these steps:
    Click to go online and run the Flash Player  uninstaller
    In the File Download dialog box, click Run, and then follow the  instructions to uninstall flash player. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the  password or provide confirmation.
    Click to go online and install the Flash Player update
    I've done both these things for 2-3 days now.  Nothing works.

    I cannot play music with my slideshows. I setup the music but it does not play, even with my older slideshows I hear no music.

    This category is for iPod shuffle.  Is that the type of iPod you have, because your description of the problem does not sound like it's about a shuffle?  If it's not a shuffle, what is the iPod model...?
    There is music there and I can play it connected to laptop.
    Are you doing the playing using the iPod, or are you playing the music using iTunes on the laptop?
    All mucis icons read "No music" and this is not correct
    Do these icons with "No music" appear on the laptop's screen, or on the iPod's screen

  • Captivate 7 App packager Browser does not support some of the content message

    I have succesfully creating a training app using the app packager for IOS (and to a certain extent android), however when you start the app a message starts up saying :"This browser does not support some of the content in the file you are trying to view.  Use IE 9 or later, Safari 5.1 or later etc. "  The interesting thing is that I am using the latest versions of both safari and chrome?
    I checked out the javascript and and althouth there is an "if then" test, clearly it is not testing correctly.  Has someone got a fix for this e.g. modifications to the code to make it work?
