Flash alternative for firefox

I am running linux
Because of nice people in adobe I do not install outdated flash player for my system.
So what I want to know is there a alternative way to play flash videos in firefox using I do not know an alternative open source flash player or something ??
Thank you in advanced

Thank you for the reply
Sadly I do not have good results so far with Gnash and Lightspark.
as far as I know there is no way to use pepper flash with Firefox. Would be great if I am wrong.
I think i should give up on this.

What are the Flash alternatives for iphone and ipad?

Hello,
I would like to know what could be the Flash alternatives for iphone, ipod, and ipad. I would like to create iphone applications that have 3D animation I usually create with Flash.
But since Apple does not support the use of flash, I need to know what applications or programming languages I must use to create movies or animations for iphone or ipad.

I would like to create iphone applications

Flash Player for Firefox on Win 8 / 64 bit

I'm trying to install Flash Player for Firefox on a Windows 8, 64 bit system, but have been having no end of grief.
I've finally traced the problem back to the origin, and it's happening because when I enter the info on the download page, it serves up the installer for the 32 bit version instead.
It does in fact verify on the page that I'm requesting and downloading the 64 bit version, but what I receive and then install is 32 bit. And consequently, I can't get Flash Player to work in Firefox.
Is there any way at all I can access the real 64 bit Flash Player for Firefox / Windows 8?

There is no separate 32-bit and 64-bit installer; on a 64-bit system the installer will automatically install both 32-bit and 64-bit players.
Download the installer from http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe

I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox

I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox (Firefox version 1.5.0). I've tried to install the latest version 9.0.16.0 from the Adobe Download Centre. There are no error messages or warnings during the installation.
The Flash plugin for IE is working fine.
I've tried everything, uninstall the pre-installed version (7), re-install FireFox, uninstall all plugins, download and install everything over and over..... still the same problem.

Hi Stephan,
Thans for your reaction and suggestion.
I've cleaned up the register, deleted all the macromedia and flash keys.
Restarted, installed Flash plugin again, IE is working fine (again) but Firefox (and Opera!) only showing the message "Flash plugin needed" when I try to display a site with Flash content.
I have the same combination working on several desktops, does it have anything to do with te pre-installed software from Toshiba?
I have two Toshiba Sattelite's P100 with both exactly the same problems! Flash on IE working, Opera an Firefox NOT.

Cannot install Flash Player for Firefox

I am running Windows XP HE with SP4. IE and the latest version of Firefox are installed.
In both IE and Firefox, on attempting to install Flash Player with the standard link, I get an error message in a small window opens, title "getPlus+(R): Error," text "Unable to load a GUI," "OK" box. I got around this by locating a standalone installation for IE, which downloaded an installation file to my computer. However, this does not work in Firefox, even when obtaining access to that link from Firefox. The file executes, but Flash Player still shows as not installed in Firefox.
I cannot find any separate standalone installer for Flash Player for Firefox.
This error message appears to be generated by the Adobe Installer, a getPlus product. My thought was to uninstall the Adobe Installer, and try to start over. However, the Adobe Installer shows up in the list of installed programs reached through Control Panel, BUT clicking the button to uninstall the program does nothing. The program remains listed. I cannot find a location for the Adobe Installer program on my disk drive.

As I said in my first message, Adobe DLM appears in the "Add/Remove Programs" dialogue box, but clicking the Remove button doesn't do anything. The screen flickers for a couple of seconds, and Adobe DLM remains listed as an installed program. There is no installed program listed under the description getPlus or NOS.
I found useful information at http://www.findmysoft.com/news/Patch-to-Fix-Critical-Adobe-Download-Manager-Vulnerability- Released/ . Not to put too fine a point on it, information at various locations shows that the DLM has been a troublesome program.
IE did not list Adobe DLM, getPlus, or NOS as an addon. Firefox listed "getPlusPlus for Adobe 16263" as a plugin. There was not other extension or plugin listed under Adobe DLM, getPlus, or NOS.
Based on the information at the link cited above, I tried the following. First, in Firefox, I disabled the getPlusPlus for Adobe 16263 plugin. Removing it was not an option. First, using services.msc, I disabled the getPlus Helper service. Removing it was not an option. Third, I deleted the directory c:\Program Files\NOS and its subtree. I did not find anything relevant in the Application Data directories.
I then went to the link on the Adobe Web site to install Flash Player. (I know, it's already installed, but I wanted to see if the DLM would now function.) This time, the first thing that happened upon clicking the link to install it was that the site completed a new installation of DLM. However, on proceeding to the installation of Flash Player itself, I got the same error message noted above, "A GUI could not be loaded." So nothing changed. Opening services.msc again, I noted that the getPlus Helper service had been reinstalled, and was no longer disabled. The c:\Program Files\NOS directory had been recreated. I tried manually starting the getPlus Helper service, and trying the installation again through the Adobe Web site. Same result, no help. And note that DLM is not being cleaned up automatically as part of this process, as is supposed to happen.
I'm thinking that a previous installation of DLM left behind some corrupted relic that is preventing it from running properly. Very likely an incorrect registry entry. But good luck finding that one without help.
NOS Micro has a link to "Contact Our Support Team" at http://www.nosltd.com/index.php/support . Maybe as a last resort see if they would respond? Note that I can't locate a way to get support from Adobe except by paying $39.95 per incident for telephone support.
Thanks!

Flash plugin for Firefox: 2, 3 speed audio?

Hi all,
I am having problem with audio using the flash plugin for Firefox. The video
is OK but the audio seems to be played at double or triple speed, which sounds
funy.
Here is the address:
http://news.com.com/1606-2_3-6052333.ht … &subj=news
Anybody else had this problem before?

its playing in the background right now and sounds fine. Motion is a little jerky but acceptable.
using the 2.6.16 kernel from testing firefox from current over a DSL line.
Is the rtc module loaded? Otherwise at a loss (as usual)
BTW, that VW system is the last thing I need in my truck. Would rather have a cup holder that works and a first gear that does not lose sync.

HT202681 Is Flash Player only for Safari? Do I need Flash Player for Firefox?

Is Flash Player only for Safari? Do I need Flash Player for Firefox?

A Flash tip to help avoid security issues later: There are known scammer who fake a "Flash is out of date" pop-up that leads you to a site that installs malware or can compromise your private data. If you see a pop-up in FF saying you need to upgrade Flash, the only safe thing to do is go to this official Adobe site:
https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
and follow the downloads instructions there. It will show the currently available version. You can quickly tell what version is on your computer by doing System Preference > Flash Player and selecting the "Updates" tab.
Do NOT choose to update Flash from any pop-up. Here are several articles with more info on the "Fake Flash" issue:
http://www.thesafemac.com/?s=flash&submit=Search
Fake Flash pop-ups commonly contain grammatical or spelling errors. One common one is "Failure to install this update may cause your computer to crush." Using only the official Adobe site I linked plus checking your current version via System Preferences will avoid your having to figure out if a pop-up is fake.

Flash player for firefox

t downloads fine,but when i try to install i get failed to initialize. WHY?

I have a similar problem regarding flash player (newest version - 11.1.102.55) for firefox/safari on MacOS 10.6:
It downloads fine, but when I try to open it, there is an error: Image could not be opened, Image data is damaged.
I have downloaded it several times from the adobe downloads page, I have uninstalled the old version, I have deactivated popupblocker and sophos antivir-software and so on. I even tried to test / repair the image with the disk-utility-program of MacOS. The test said everything ok, but repairing it was not possible (not able to open again). curious file.
I have the same problem with an other program that I downloaded recently, but old dmgs that I downloaded earlier are no problem.. Perhaps it's also a problem with my computer, but at first glance it seems to be a problem with the file. Perhaps could you also tell me the exact size the file should have? Or should I try an other, older version?

My adobe flash plugin for firefox is not working? I have windows 7

I have uninstalled - reinstalled, I have checked plugins - and when I run the plugincheck via mozilla it says it needs up dated. ?? I have windows 7. I have specifically downloaded the version for firefox flashplaer 16 and windows / browser is still not recognizing it. This has been an issue I have been trying to correct now for 3 days and is sucking up my time as a designer working from my home. I'm very disappointed in the creation and issue of this product. Please help.
Sincerely,
Tracy

It looks like you have two Flash Plugins installed for Firefox.
Flash
Shockwave Flash 16.0 r0
I'm curious what that first one labeled simply as "Flash" has for a description in the add-ons manager. Does it say anything about Lightspark?

How Update Flash Player for Firefox Without Running Firefox?

I have had a problem with Firefox freezing when I try to do just about anything other than simple browsing for at least two years. Updates don't help nor disabling all add-ons, nor reinstalling, etc. Nobody can figure out how to fix it so I use it as-is. I would like to update the Adobe Flash Player add-on but Firefox freezes every time I try. Is there a way to update the Flash Player in Firefox with actually running Firefox?
Thanks
Running XP SP3 and latest Firefox.
Also running IE8 using the latest Flash Player.

That worked, thanks so much. Now all I have to do is figure out where I can find similar files for all the other plugins that are outdated, Acrobat, Java, DivX, etc.
Thanks again.

Flash plugin for Firefox: it has trouble after 6-9 hours!

Hi,
Vista32 sp2, 4GB Ram, ALL Adobe Flash plugin for FF versions, now 11.1.102.55.
perhaps dxdiag.txt needed?
Issue:
when Firefox 3.6 (in the past) or 8.0 (now) remains open, after 6-9 hours I become issues with Flash plugin for FF.
ALL YT videos (240p up to 1080p) playback with jumpiness!! with or without acceleration.
ActiveX for IE9 works fine on the same machine. No problem with Silverlight in FF.
Solution: kill the flash plugin process in task manager >refresh the YT video's page > playback again ok.
why the flash plugin is fatigued after 6 or 9 hours?
is it able to handle good the memory usage?
May you want to suggest me a workaround to get the video's palyback smoothly even if Firefox is running a lot of time (without killing the process in task manager)?
or could I to wait for an update of flash plugin in the future that adresses this issue?
Thanks a lot in advance.
best regards.

Hi,
Thank you both for your reply!
@Campbell:
the same effects with or without having the flash acceleration enabled.
I dont know if I am enough able to file a bug request.
I have done (hopefully it is right?
I warmly hope that the Adobe Engineers will read and reproduce my issue and they may want to send me an email if the issue will be resolved.
this were wonderfull.
my OS/hardware seems not too old
no problem in watching/editing full HD content.
if you mean that my bug report looks correct and exhaustive, please forward him to the developers.
(I hope that the report will not be closed, even if it becomes poor votes). thanks.
@ ɹəuəllıʍ :
Yes the same problem in Firefox 8.0 too
(in my old FF 3.6: no issues regarding the jumpiness in Silverlight, therefore I think that this was/is perhaps an issue in "Flash player for FF" only: jumpiness after 6-9 hours usage).
But the new FF 8.0 offers the same behaviour after 6-9 hours.

thank you both

Problems with Flash plugin for Firefox

I've already tryed to install and uninstall adobe flash
player 9 for firefox several times (windows vista) but it keeps
having a problem:
some flash movies are not displayed complitely, if the movie
is 800x600 and i embed it into an html page with the same size,
when i open the page with firefox it is something like 600x400!!
If i open that page with Internet explorer or Opera there is
no problem!
here is the code i use to embed the movie:
quote:
<script language="javascript">
