Flash and Silverlight suddenly not working?!

Hi,
This evening I went to check the football on skygo. Where the stream would usually load, I was presented with this...
Silverlight on grey background and no video.
I then went to the BBC website and clicked on the football latest and it showed me this...
Flash on grey background and no video
I 'right clicked' the main video window and it gave me the option to 'restore flash'. I clicked this and was then confronted with this...
HTML5 text across video window. I could still click play and it refreshed itself and then played normally, but upon re-entering the page the same happened again.
Does anyone know why I am suddenly having problems with various video formats? I've done nothing different to normal whatsoever and although flash seems to be working (albeit a bit strangely), silverlight it not, so nogo-skygo!
I'm hoping this will be riculously obvious to someone and they will call me an idiot and tell me what needs installing/uninstalling/reinstalling/molesting/fingering to get me back to the smooth operation i've enjoyed for the last 5 years.
I'm running:
Macbook Pro
Mountain lion 10.8.4
Gracias amigos...

Try this for Flash ...
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
Back to Safari. Press Command + Option + E to empty the Safari cache.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, please post a link in your Reply.

Flash and java games not working

hi,
when i try to play online games that uses flash or java, they wont load, flash games just show the red F, IVE TRIED DOWNLOADING FLASH FROM ADOBE, but that didnt work, ive tried updating my software to the latest version, that didnt work either. ive also tried the update app, but none were found.
the phone is a nokia 5800 music express,
any help would be apppriciated,
many thanks ,
wayne.

The flash app you're trying to play has to support Flash Lite, otherwise it won't work. Flash content has become pretty demanding in terms of hardware required to run it smoothly, or run it at all for that matter...
The question here is, did the content you're trying to view/play work before, and on which mobile phone? If you never had success in using the same flash/java apps/applets on any phone, then trying to solve your problem is feasible. If not - most likely you've run into a demanding app(let) which simply needs the full Java RE or Flash, and it won't work with mobile Java or Flash Lite.
Careful what you wish for... You just might get it.

IPad (3rd gen.) speaker and microphone suddenly not working and iPad freezes. Help!

I was just watching some YouTube videos on my iPad and noticed that it only had 5% battery left. I plugged it in for charging and continued to watch. After that video had ended I moved onto another one, only to notice that I had no sound. I thought this was just because of low battery, and left it to charge. I came back to the iPad later on, only to find the display not turning on from the home or lock button. I did a reset by holding the home and lock buttons down for around 10 seconds. I showed the Apple logo and turned on. I still had no sound though. I tried using Siri to see if he would sound, but then noticed that my microphone is also not working, and then my iPad froze, and it has continued to freeze in a variety of different locations on the iPad since.
When I attempt to play I sound, I hear a quiet, static-like sound coming from the speaker, as if it is attempting to play it or something. I tried an iPad restore using iTunes but it would not take place, so I erased all data on the iPad and that had no effect. Most times to turn the display I have to reset the iPad also.
Please help!
Thanks,
Tom

You rebooted - by which you mean powered off, then powered on?
Then try a reset:
Hold both the Home button and the Power button down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
Let go promptly when it appears.
Wait 30 seconds or so for your iPad to restart.
No information or settings will be lost.

Flash and Silverlight don't work at all in Beta 34.0, when Internet Explorer properly works with these; happened immediately with update to Beta 34.0.

Hello!
Immediately upon updating to Beta 34.0, Silverlight and Flash, completely stopped working in Firefox. I am running Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2.
They work fine in Internet Explorer.
This happens in any website I go to.
For example, I can go to Youtube, and the page will show a black box where the video should be, but there are no play controls, or any way to enable the video. Clicking within the black box does nothing.
On the music play site, Grooveshark, the site does not recognize Flash as being installed at all. (If you don't have Flash installed, this site pops up a message every time. Grooveshark correctly recognizes that Internet Explorer has Flash installed.)
I updated the Flash plugin to the current version, which also did nothing.
I have not reinstalled Firefox, or done a System Restore, yet.
I just bought a new computer that I was going to migrate to, and retire this computer, so I was not going to do heroic efforts to fix this. I was reporting this more on the order of a bug report.
Thanks.
Karl

This happened to me as well with Windows 7 32 bit (which I did as as upgrade from Vista Home Premium - if that might foul things up a bit) and affects Firefox 34.1 and IE. I did a system restore which took me back to Firefox 33 and Flash was fine. Later in the day Firefox updated back to 34.1 and I lost Flash again.

Guide and dvr suddenly not working

The last few days the guide and dvr haven't been displaying. Pushing either guide or dvr will only make the current channel display in the upper right corner and the rest of the screen is black. Any idea how to fix this?

Hello lilstar...sorry to hear of your tv issues, if you can send me a private message with the serial # of the box, it's located on the bottom of the box, we can do some trouble shooting on the box. The serial # starts with an "M"

Flash and Drop down not working properly on safari

I have some of my safari users experiencing trouble with my
swishmas flash image on my home page. Apparently it is causing my
drop down menu to disapear when it is selected. I know its related
to the image because yesterday i was experiencing issues with
firefox. I think its related to the transparent parameter. Anyone
run into this problem?
Any help anyone can provide is greatly appreciated!!

Hey, just wanted to say I'm having the same problem as you.
You can see my site in progress here:

I can't get anything to stay on top of the Flash banner in
Safari. I noticed it's happening on the Adobe site as well. Is this
something that is being addressed by the Safari dev team?

Flash Player 9 suddenly stops working,Flash 10 won't install

Hi all!
I have been going around in circles on this.(and you can see on secondary Details what MacMini this is...an older one running Os 10.4.11) Below is a clip of the Disk RepairLog re: the Flash 9 Player suddenly not working. I downloaded the Flash Player 10 (which is all Adobe seems to want to let me do...can't get 9 again!!) It shows Permissions repaired (and I have tinkered with User Permissions too)...No Luck. When I go to Library>Internet PlugIns the Flash PlugIn won't open. I have updated Quicktime (and in Quicktime I DO NOT get the choice to enable Flash ,but a selection under Mime/older encoders..(all are checked). It's Quicktime Pro,latest version. Quicktime should display that Flash option in the Advanced Menu. Here's Clip re: Permissions:
**Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”**

SO....HELP...anyone know what could be happening here?
One other thing grabbed off another forum. Do any of you think this is advisable or could I make matters worse?...See Following:
Okay, solution found! It's dangerous for newbies but experienced Mac users can handle it
Go to System Preferences>Accounts. Right-click on your name on the left, and choose Advanced Options. You can now change your UID and GID. They should be 501. Set them to 0. This gives you the all-powerful (and dangerous) root access. Log out and log in again. If it happens the same for you as it did for me, you'll be scared at first if you've never done this before. The log-in process changes to the more secure form, and you may log-in as root, not as yourself at all!
That doesn't matter, though. Run the Flash Installer and it will do its thing. If you had any kind of permissions setback before this will plow right through it. The Installer opens a test page when it's done so you'll see its success. Now, immediately change your GID and UID (for your own name, of course, not the System Administrator if that's what you're logged in as now) back to 501. Log out immediately after this, and log in as yourself again. The browsers should have working Flash under your name as well. Mission Accomplished!
P.S.: Adobe can still bite it (particularly their tech "support" site), but without Flash the Internet is a much less interesting place, unfortunately, so I'm glad I got it working again.)
Thanks for any help...I can't view the multimedia content on my own web site and this makes things pretty non functional.

When Disk Utility reports failure on exit, it means there is something it can't fix. Usual solution is to use Disk Warrior or TechTool Pro to fix the problem. That Disk utility found issues with Quartz is interesting, as Quartz is OS X's foundation for it's graphics system, and coincidentally your primary issue is with Flash. It may just be coincidental, though.

Safari - Flash and Silverlight Plug-ins NOT working

Safari does not seem to recognize my Flash and Silverlight Plug-ins so that I can watch and stream videos. I might have messed it up, but I can not fix it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

There's no Auval or RA or Garritan Personal Orchestra in the Audio Units Manager in Logic Pro. Though Stylus RMX that I also use and Kontakt Player 2 are there and successfully validated. The RA and Kontakt Player component are exactly in the place you said they would be.
I've since discovered that RA does not in fact work in Logic Express. As for whether it's loading up in Rosetta or PPC version - how do I tell that?
I really appreciate your help but I'm still stuck at square 1. Any more suggestions?!!

Flash Slideshows Suddenly not working

Hi All,
My site is "www.neilmarksphotography.com"
I have 5 pages leading off "GALLERY" menu option, which all contain flash slideshows created in Lightroom. They have all been working fine, but today I slightly changed the content of the slideshows, and now they are not working - they just show the "GET ADOBE FLASH PLAYER" icon. The home page (index.html) is working fine - I have not changed the code there at all.
I have tried to compare the code in the changed gallery pages with the home page, but cannot see what I have done to stop all the galleries from working properly. GALLERY pages are previewing fine locally off the hard drive. It's only on the live page that I am getting the problem
Any suggestions?
thanks
Neil

Hi
thanks for your suggestions - I finally found the problem!

Subject: Flash Slideshows Suddenly not working
Hi
Try removing the following line of code (marked in red), from the problem pages -
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = gat.getTracker("UA-3534258-1");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");
</script>
It may be that your pages are cached in your browser, (viewing locally, in browser), or that the Google analytics code is being ignored by dreamweaver, (if working in dreamweaver), as this requires a live page /server.

Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working. I can login to my account but as soon as I do that the screen goes completely white. I can change the volume and I have a mouse but that is it. I've tried safe starting my computer and that doesn't work.

Help! My MacBook is all of a sudden not working past the login page. A white screen comes up that I cannot get rid of. I attempted a safe start up and that failed as well. It's a white screen where I have a mouse and when I click the volume buttons I can hear it working but nothing else just white. Please help.

Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store & sign out & log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

What is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?
What means "not working"; what do you see instead of the expected Flash content?

Does the app now use iCloud, do you use iCloud and do the two of you use the same account on iCloud?
Just a guess.
