Flash content causing Adobe Flash Player to crash in FireFox

Adobe flash player is crashing when even visiting YouTube's home page.
I am using Linux Mint Debian 64 bit.
I have the latest FF and FP versions, here is the crash file:
https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/8a074d64-2c1a-468d-8760-87eef2150105
I have tried safemode with no success. (flash works flawlessly in Chromium)

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:
* [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
* [[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
* [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]

AVG causes adobe flash player to crash every browser I use

As my thread subject says, when I have the free version of AVG installed it causes adobe flash to crash any web browser I use. I have tried reinstalling everything and ran registry cleaners and nothing I do seems to fix it. If I uninstall AVG, adobe flash no longer crashes my browsers. But as soon as I put AVG back on, bam - the problem is back. Also if I uninstall adobe flash while AVG is installed, I can view any website just fine. Does anyone have any idea what this problem may be? Any help as to how to fix this will be appreciated.

Ok, Stay in IE and we'll get it cleaned up. Go to Control Panel>Add Remove and find Adobe Download Manager and Remove it. Then just close Add/Remove and close Control Panel. Go back to Tools>Manage Add ons and do this:
Safe Search, if it is Enabled , with the mouse, hi light it, go down where it says Enabled/Disabled and click on DISABLE.
Do the same thing with Adobe DLM, Windows Messenger, Windows Live Sign in Helper.
Make note of anything that IS enabled. It should only be Shockwave Flash Object, you want that ENABLED
Click ok
Then I want you to go to www.sunmicrosystems and download and install Java, you will see on the top left side a coffee cup (steaming:-) and the word JAVA, click on that and follow the instructions.
After that reboot your computer and post back if any problem.
WATCH THAT YOU DON'T PICK UP ANY TOOLBARS FROM THE JAVA DOWNLOAD, CHECK CAREFULLY
While you are doing that, I'm going to have a coffee:-)

"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it continues ...

I'm continually getting a "movie script error" in regards to
a looping interactive. The following message: "A script in this
movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it
continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you
wish to abort the script?" frustratingly comes up despite numerous
startups and taking off information from the server. It seemed to
occur slightly after uploading some content to the admin server
which delivers the info to flash upon rebooting. However this last
time it just cycles through a small portion frantically. How do I
find out where the problem is and fix it?
any clues?
thanks in advance, Patrick

Hi Patrick and welcome to our community
What product are you using? This is the forum for Adobe
RoboHelp. Your post seems to imply that you are using a Flash
output of some type. Is it FlashHelp? Or are you possibly dealing
with Adobe Captivate? Or maybe Flash itself?

PDF error A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly.

When opening a PDF of a website using Acrobat 9.0 Professional, I am recieiving the following notification.
A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly. If it continues to run, you computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?
The error does not occur when viewing the live website from which the PDF was made.
I recieve the same error when trying to open the PDF on other PCs using Adobe Reader 9.
I have updated the flash player on each of the PCs as well.
I am wondering if anyone has any ideas or insight regarding why I am recieving this notification.
Thank you

I'm suddenly getting the same error message, on a variety of web sites. I'm running Windows Vista on a fairly high-end desktop, and I haven't added any new software lately. This just started up out of nowhere. When searching for this error message on the web, people are asking this same question all over the place, and no one has an answer. Does Adobe ever monitor these forums?

Repeatedly, this error code suddenly appears on the screen and I don't have a clue what it means or what to do: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you w

Repeatedly, this error code suddenly appears on the screen and I don't have a clue what it means or what to do: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?
No Yes"

Hi,
Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
A web page can include javascript.
Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

Is there an app that will play this. I can't find one....

Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news and media sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
If you do a search on this forum you will find hundreds of other threads on the subject.

Receive error: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly..." Firefox problem? Adobe problem? Malware?

While browsing a variety of site, while running no movies at all, I receive the following message:"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?" I click "ok", error message disappears. minutes later, error message re-appears.
I've removed Adobe Flash, cleaned registry, rebooted, all to no avail.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

" A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9...

In Safari I recently have been getting this message:
"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? Yes_No"
Safari and to some extent, Firefox, come to a halt.
What is this?

Hello,
First, go here and make sure your Mac meets the minimum requirements;
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/systemreqs/
Second, make sure you have enough available drive space to access video on the net. Click once on your MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop. Then Command + I. That will prompt a Get Info window. Where it says: General click the black arrow so it points down. You will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you have a minimum of 15 to 20% free drive space. A utility that can tell you which files that are taking up the most space is: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/21149
Also, read the following from the Apple Help/Safari Menu:
Resetting Safari
IMPORTANT: Resetting Safari removes all cookies, saved passwords, and saved AutoFill information, not just the ones saved during the current browsing session. Cookies saved by other applications may also be removed.

Click Reset.
Open windows are closed and a new window opens. The new window has a new history for the Back and Forward buttons and the SnapBack buttons.

Cannot access flash content in adobe reader

Opening flash content in Adobe reader causes Adobe reader to advise me that "flash player" is required.
I have cleaned and reinstalled the latest flash and adobe reader multiple times.
I have reset the internet options and checked the plugins
I have installed shockwave
I have verified flash works fine in internet explorer
I have tried the "repair installation" in Adobe Reader.
I have manually scanned the registry and cleaned it of all adobe registry entries then reinstalled all adobe applications (they all acted as if it was their first time and functioned properly).
ANY help would be appreciated.

Adobe and Flash content wrote:
What is the difference between that file and the one that ends with "AX" from the adobe web site.
Further from what TSN has already explained: Internet Explorer uses a technology called ActiveX for browser add-ons; that's what the "AX" stands for. All other browsers use the "plugin" technology (NPAPI) originally developed by Netscape.
I have for years tried to convince Adobe to provide a single installer for Windows that installs all Flash Player components, instead of two different installers (https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=2945082). Unfortunately this seems to be a lost cause. But you can go to the bugbase link in the previous sentence, and cast a vote to implement it.

Flash error in Safari: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash P..."

When using the BBC iPlayer to watch movies in Safari they freeze after 8 seconds (although the sound continues). After a few more seconds an error message pops up that says "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? Yes/No". If I click "Yes" the movie will jump frames until it catches up with the sound and then play normally, although a lot of functionality will be lost in the player (pausing, time elapsed etc.). If I click "No" the browser will crash.
I originally had Flash Player 10 running, which gave me the same problem. I uninstalled it, fixed permissions, installed Flash Player 9 and fixed permissions again. There is no difference.
The same problem exists in Firefox, so I believe it to be a Flash problem rather than Safari but the Adobe site is no help and the forums there have a lot of people with the same problem but no solutions. So I'm hoping that someone here might have an idea...

Klaus1:
You also asked if I had installed the latest update to iPlayer. I assume that you mean the Desktop iPlayer, but this is a whole different issue! When I first tried to download the movie using Desktop iPlayer I was presented with a button to install it. This surprised me as it was already installed, but maybe it was really just offering an update. As it wasn't optional, I clicked the button. It then tried to install AdobeAIR (which was already installed) and failed as it couldn't get permission to write to the disk.
I thought I'd make things simple and uninstalled AdobeAIR and Desktop iPlayer. I then tried to reinstall. Again it tried to install AdobeAIR and failed. So I tried downloading and installing AdobeAIR direct from Adobe. The installer loads into the dock but that's it. I've spent many hours trying to resolve this without success.
Hence I'm just trying to use the browser version of iPlayer.
I thought I'd get the Flash Player thing resolved first and then start another thread about AdobeAIR! I thought Adobe products were solid but I'm now seeing lot's of differing opinions on that.

Flash content in Windows Media Player

Can Flash Content play in the Windows Media Player? I don't see it as a supported file type but found this on the Microsoft site:
...you must have Adobe Flash 9 installed to play Flash content through Windows Media Player. If Flash 9 is not installed, a dialog box that contains the following text prompts you to install Flash 9
Thanks

I looked up the internet but can't find anything on this. As no replies here too I guess I'm the only one. The other thing that struck me is the enormous CPU usage when playing flash in the browser. Up to 95%-100% cpu usage when playing HD flash content. First I assumed it was a Flash issue but Internet Explorer never used more then 35%-55%. I then assumed it was just Flash in Safari. Strange thing is, if I maximize the window the cpu load actually drops to 55%. I only get high cpu usage when flash is played in the Safari window. I guess that means it's something to do with the browser and not an isolated flash 'bug'.
Also still no luck playing WMV in the browser itself. Maybe time to look for yet another browser. A shame as I like the Safari browser a lot. MobileMe and iPhone are great to sync bookmarks and the look and feel is great. The engine is not so good unfortunately.
