Flash crash with Facebook Scrabble

Flash Crash with Facebook Scrabble
I've grown accustomed to Facebook Scrabble crashing the Safari on my MacBook at least once or twice a day.
I noticed that a friend, whose MacBook's OS is updated but has never updated Flash, mentioned that their machine never crashes.
My daughter used my computer last night and when Safari crashed she said that she's never seen that before. I assume that her MacBook, similarly, never updated Flash.
I don't know if this is a meaningful pattern, or not, but it appears that my computer, fully up to date with the most current Flash version, crashes repeatedly, but Macbooks with (presumably) older versions, never having upgraded are stable.
Is it possible to get an older version of Flash?

Thanks for your reply. I can only speak of Flash Player in general, since I work with PC's. My sister has an iMac and I know there is a "finder" and a "Library", so you can see my knowledge is very very limited. Having said that, it may be helpful for you to find out what version of Flash Player the others have. If you have the latest (10.0.45.2) then that would give you some info to compare to.
Then I wouldn't judge Safari or the Flash Player version by just one website. If that is happening, it could be that the website has not updated and may not support the latest version of Flash Player which I assume you have Installed.
Should it be happening on various websites, then you could assume something like an add on is conflicting. Adblock or pop up blocker software can actually block Flash content. An Anti-Virus component can as well. Perhaps you can compare add ons with the others that aren't having a problem.
I can say that many users of the PC have issues with Facebook and the various games. You may want to contact either one and ask if they support vs 10.0.45.2. Others have done so and the response varies as to their opinion as to the cause.
I hope this will give you some direction that you can take to find a solution. One final bit of info. Let's say Facebook supports the latest version and you don't have any adblock or pop up blocking software and all of your Flash files are Installed correctly. With a PC, in IE, an ActiveX Control is needed to work with the Flash files. In Firefox the SWF is needed.
Thanks,

Yoga 13: Adobe Flash crashing with Transitions?

Whenever I have Firefox open and flip from laptop to tent or tablet mode, Adobe Flash crashes. This is a major annoyance because really the only time I go from laptop to tent or tablet mode is when I am watching a video within Firefox. I've searched Google but haven't found anything... I have the latest version of Flash (11.6.602.180) and the latest version of Transitions I've found on this horrible Lenovo site.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem, and have you found a fix? Thanks in advance!

I, too am having this issue - however instead of crashing, my PC usually slows down. For anyone at Lenovo that cares to actually test this issue - just open up any web browser and watch a YouTube video. Play the video in laptop mode. Then when you're done, switch to tablet mode and play it again. That same video will either become choppy or crash. Likewise, when I try to use a program to play DRM videos (Vudu) or play flash-enabled games I have the same issue. I have tried to look at task manager and do a comparison of programs running before and after transition to tablet mode, and all I can see is a .1% spike in memory usage by Lenovo Transition.
I think this is a more recent problem as I don't remember this being an issue from the start, but I can't identify how recent. I used to play a game called SoulCraft from the Windows 8 store back in January. This game is most easily played in tablet mode, and it played perfectly. It quickly got old and I stopped playing after about a week. I came back to it about 4 weeks ago but it was choppy in tablet mode. When in laptop mode it plays fine. So I reckon that this issue came with a software update that occurred sometime between late Jan and early Apr. That's just my speculation, though. I have also installed/uninstalled programs which may be messing with the transition software.

Why does ADOBE FLASH Crash with XP, CHROME, 32 bit system

XP, Chrome, 32 bit system, Adobe flash version: 11.6.602.171 . Why does flash crash on a daily basis? (sometimes numerous times a day)

PROBLEM SOLVED. There were two versions of Flashplayer installed. I re-ran Flash Aid and it sorted the problem.
Why does Adobe not resolve this problem at installation or upgrade time????

Make sure you are using the correct version of Flash Player.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version, 10.2.152.25 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Note that the latest Flash Player update only works on YouTube with Safari in 32 bit mode - until YouTube correct this.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Flash crashes playing Facebook games

Why does adobe flash crash on facebook cafe game

After I installed the security update a few days ago, cafe game on facebook crashes and other games are slow
== I updated the security update a few days ago.

Hi Marie's husband,
If you feel safer with Firefox 3.6.6 and prefer to use that then that's fine. Firefox 3.5.10 was only meant to be a temporary fix until the problems with "plugin-container.exe" were resolved one way or the other, then you could update to the latest version. According to the release notes Firefox 3.5.10 should have the same security updates as Firefox 3.6.4.
As an alternative to Firefox 3.5.10, I just found some information about how to disable "plugin-container.exe" at the following link:
Disable plugin-container: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/706123?#threadId706192]
I haven't actually tried disabling "plugin-container.exe" in Firefox 3.6.6, so I can't tell you whether this works or not. I've listed it as an option, in case you want to use Firefox 3.6.6 and are still having problems. I may try it myself later. There is more discussion in the link above, which you should read, so you can make a more informed decision.
I hope you find this info useful.

Firefox crashes with facebook upload

whenever i try to upload pictures to facebook firefox crashes, the first time i upload pictures it works fine but the second time it crashes.. thats really frustrating..
any suggestions..

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Using Flash with Facebook Connect

I was wondering if anyone has any information or resources on using Flash AS3 with facebook connect. What I'm particularly looking for is how to do facebook authentication within the flash interface (so the user doesn't need to exit to the facebook website to connect) and also if there are any ways to make facebook calls from within flash once you have authenticated (rather than loading xml generated in PHP as I am currently doing).
Any information or resources would be appreciated.

The dial in process would be exactly the same as if you were dialing into the bridge as a participant. Most of the time it needs the following steps.
Phone number:           800-555-5555
Delay:                        3000 ms
DTMF: (passcode)     123456#
Delay:                        3000ms
DTMF:                      1 or # (for a roll call or to join the bridge)
However if the provider is not using a SIP compliant bridge, the Universal Voice tool will fail upon attempting to dial out.
Also, for the hosted environment, the phone bridge must have a toll-free number.

Adobe Flash crash when I try to upload some photos to create an album on Facebook . I think this issue related to the new version of Mozilla Firefox that I had installed 3 days ago and cause my system not able to open the internet . But I have sent a rep

Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC.

Constant crashing with FF13 and newest Flash. Tried reinstall of previous version; nothing but trouble

A few weeks ago, everything worked very nicely on my desktop computer. Then I succumbed to the nagging and "upgraded" to FF13, as well as the new Flash and Real players. Immediately, FF started crashing. First, it would instantly crash with any tab that had Flash embedded.
OK, I disabled and then finally uninstalled Flash and Real, but that didn't solve the problem; it would still crash 3 or 4 times a day, and with as few as 30 tabs open (the previous version could easily run 100+ tabs). Apart from those 3 "updates", the only other thing I had done was to update my existing plug-ins and add-ons, but I even tried disabling all of my plug-ins and add-ons; FF still kept crashing!
Today, I got fed up and uninstalled FF13 (after using MozBackup), and d/loaded and installed the previous version of FF. Did that solve the problem? Nope. Now, I can't get Tab Mix Plus to work, nor can I find my hundreds of old saved Sessions with Session Manager.
I tried uninstalling Tab Mix Plus and then reinstalling it, but I just get an error message saying it couldn't be installed. In fact, this is the THIRD time I've had to type this post, since the first time, I mistakenly tried to open a new tab to search Tab Mix Plus in Google, but the f{ck1ng tab opened Google right over this page, wiping out my almost finished post, and the second time, I went to Tools-->Options-->Manage Add-Ons-->Tab Mix Plus-->Options, and it froze up FF, requiring restarting it! Indeed, it seems as if the entire Manage Add-Ons menu is now buggy and generally freezes up.
I am *this*far*away* from ditching FF entirely (after 7 years of being loyal to it) and trying Chrome. It really is infuriating how difficult it is to get this straightened out! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried creating a new Firefox profile and testing whether that will run without crashes? This is a non-destructive test that creates a new settings folder. It picks up plugins from the registry, but otherwise looks like a fresh install.
If you haven't used the Profile Manager before, this article describes how to start up into it and create a new profile: [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]].
You can import your bookmarks by restoring a backup from your previous profile folder. For convenience of access, make a copy of your last bookmarks backup on the desktop. You can find that folder using Help > Troubleshooting Information > Show Folder; navigate up one level to view your last active profile, then into the bookmarkbackups folder. Copy the latest .json file to the desktop. Then in the dialog pictured in the article "[[Back up your bookmarks or move them to another computer]]", use Restore > Choose File to import that file into your new profile.
Can you get through a day without crashing?

AE CS3: Crashes on export to Adobe Flash Video (with audio)

I have a 10 second comp I'm rendering to Adobe Flash Video. The comp has a wav file on it.
I have ram previewed the comp and it plays back just fine.
When I render it to Adobe Flash Video via the render queue my comp crashes at 30 frames in everytime.
However if I remove the wave file from my comp, AE will fully render the comp to an FLV file.
I have also tried replacing the wav file with another random wav file - I get the same crash everytime at 30 frames in.
I also made a comp from scratch and tried to render it to Adobe Flash Video with a wav clip and it crashes 30 frames in every time.
Please note when it hits frame 30 on the render, a window pops up ( a dos type window ) and then the window closes along with AE right away leaving me with no error messages or even an error log. I was able to get a screen cap of the error and it's attached.
I am running Windows Vista 64-bit and this is the first problem I've had with AE CS3.
Is this a known issue and is there a workaround for this?

That is not an Apple or OS X issue, I'd suggest contacting the modem manufacturer to see what the issue might be.

Shockwave/Flash Player crashes with every browser...Ugh.

I can't find a solution in this forum although a lot of people seem to be asking this question. Flash crashes constantly and it doesn't matter if I use Chrome, Firefox or IE. It's quite unbearable. I don't have multiple Flash players and if an add-on is causing this, I can't draw a link between it crashing and me disabling them. I've scanned for malware and gotten rid of anything found. No viruses that my virus protection reports. The problem just gets worse. It used to be occasionally, then multiple times a day, now its pretty much anytime I want to use Flash...which seems to be constantly. It freezes my computer then an error message comes up and says Shockwave player has crashed. I have updated shockwave and flash, so I have the most recent versions....any solutions?
Thanks in advance.

If your machine had a recent malware infection, you might want to consider backing up your critical files and starting fresh. It takes time for antivirus and anti-malware packages to discover and push signatures for new viruses, and it's standard practice to deploy new malware to ensure that an attacker maintains their foothold on a compromised machine.
If it was my personal machine, I would back up any critical data files, wipe the machine and re-install everything from pristine sources. Not exactly convenient, but you can be reasonably sure that the system is running the software you expect (discounting the possibility of malware that compromises the system BIOS).
That said, there's not a lot of actionable information here. I'd recommend uninstalling Flash Player and re-installing fresh. You actually have three different Flash Players -- there's an ActiveX control for Internet Explorer, the NPAPI plug-in for Firefox and the PPAPI Flash Player for Chrome. The PPAPI Flash Player for Chrome is totally encapsulated -- it doesn't even share settings.
SO... malware aside, the next most likely culprit is graphics drivers. Each of the independent Flash Player installations attempts to use a hardware accelerated feature (like video playback), but the driver crashes. Typically updating the graphics drivers would resolve this, or you can experiment with disabling hardware acceleration. How do I disable or enable hardware acceleration? Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?

Macbook crashed : Flashing folder with question mark (noise on hard drive)

My macbook (intel core duo) just crashed a few days ago. This is what it's doing:
The screen displays a a flashing folder with a question mark. I did find an article in apple for that : http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58042
But the think is, it (macbook) turns off after a while. I did try to boot up with the installation CD, but it can't find my hard drive. So, I thought it must be a hard drive problem. And I could hear that the hard drive makes a noisy sound. So, before I run to bestbuy or futureshop to get a new hard drive, I wanna make sure that it's really the hard drive that went kaput!
I was trying to install the leopard. It just crashed when I went surfing, and editing on iMovie.

I have a MacBook 13" Core 2 Duo, 160GB HHD, 2GB memory. My hard drive appeared to "crash" a few days ago. Whenever I pressed the power button, I would eventually get a grey screen with a folder with a "?" in front of the folder icon. I decided to re-install OS X thinking this would resolve the issue. During the install process, I would eventually get to the point where I am asked which drive to install OS X. The computer didn't recognize the internal hard drive. I do have an external hard drive for backups and the computer did recognized this one (WD MyBook).
I have since bought a new internal hard drive (Seagate 200GB 7200RPM 2.5" Mobile with Shock guard), installed it and went through the process of re-installing OS X. Again, the computer doesn't recognize the new internal hard drive. And again, the external hard drive is recognized.
For the time being I've installed OS X in the external hard drive. But now I have a new internal hard drive but is useless since the computer will not recognize it.
Anyone installed a new internal hard drive and experience the same thing as I have? Anyone with possible solutions or any advice you can offer?
Thanks.
