Flash crashes in Firefox when using a Webcam

Him my issue seems to only aise in FireFox, Chrome seems to handle the webcam fine
Flash (not Firefox itself) crashes every time a website tries to access my webcam at all.
This happens on every website, including the flash version chack page (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html) when right clicking and going into Settings, everything works fine unless I switch to the Webcam tab, which immediately crashes Flash.
Windows 7 32bit, nVidia GTX 560Ti, 4GB Ram, latest drivers for all, latest FireFox and Flash versions.

What webcam do you use? I just tried this with my Logitech C920 but couldn't reproduce.

ICloud keeps crashing my iPads when using photo stream

iCloud keeps crashing my iPad when using photo stream, photo stream has downloaded over 600 .png files to my photo stream which are mac icons - these are causing all 3 iPads on iCloud to crash and report .panic.plist error messages. Help? I have turned off iCloud for now which allows the iPad to work.these icons were on my iMac too on iphoto which I have deleted and on our iPhones again which I have deleted. Would like to use iCloud but not until I can fix this issue.

Hi elizabethfromfernhurst,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are getting the .panic.plist alerts on your iPad when using iCloud, I would suggest restoring the iPad back to its factory settings and using iCloud to sync your data back to the device.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

I fixed it like this. I was sure the problem was not in hardware acceleration but in firefox since flash was working in opera. You can also try this and enable ha again
The problem is in crash reporting in 3.6. More info on
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins#Disabling_crash_protection
type about:config and change value from true into false for all dom.ipc.plugins values starting from this
dom.ipc.plugins.enabled;false
after that change value from 45 into -1 in
dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs
Problem solved. Thanks for the feedback!
p.s
Actually firefox keeps crashing when I enter this. Bummer..

Is flash remoting/rpc reliable when using rtmfp

As we know, rtmfp use udp instead of tcp, which is more efficient for a/v streams. But, you konw, UDPis not oritented connection and unreliable. So i want to konw that how can we ensure that flash remoting/rpc is reliable when using rtmfp, espcially in very bad network evnironment.
anyone knows?

We are using the rtmfp protocol to open a group connection,
using a NetGroup, where each client streams each own video and listen to others.
I've retried streaming between a flash player 10.3 and 11.1, it didn't work.
This involved opening 2 netgroup on each client, where one publishes and one plays the other.
Example:
Client 1 publishes stream "a" and plays "b" using flash player 10.3
Client 2 publishes stream "b" and plays "a" using flash player 11.1
Moreover, the plugin crashes on the client machines.
One more detail: the video stream width is 80, the height is 60.
Please advice.
Regards,
Amith

Flash freezes (halts/hangs) when using SLC FastForward flash based product. Help!

I'm using Windows XP SP3 - Chrome Version 23.0.1271.97 m, Firefox 17.0.1. - i7 Q Core 3.4 Ghz, 4 Gb DDR 3, AMD Radeon HD 6452 (Video Card) : The screen seems to completely lock up with no response from the HID (Keyboard, Mouse). I have to restart the computer, sometimes it will let me restart the browser. I'll be using the product for several minutes and the computer locks up. It mainly occurs in Chrome and am wondering; since it's a peppered version of Flash that it's requiring more resources from the video card (512mb) it's locking the system up. Anyone have ideas why flash would be failing/freezing during the use of this product? The symptoms and behavior are similar to those that occur when using other flash based products such as YouTube. Any one have any ideas?

the next time it happens, post your logs. /var/log/Xorg.0.log would be one of things to look at. Check your CPU usage at that time. See what process or processes are taking most of the CPU cycles and/or memory and other resources.

Background CSS images not loading in firefox when using a CDN

Hello,
I am having trouble getting CSS background images to load in Fire fox when using a CDN.
Here is a description of the problem:
- Everything works fine in Chrome
- Any images loaded through CSS do not load in Firefox (they load in chrome) when i have the CDN enabled.
- Other images / custom fonts appear to load fine with the CDN enabled
My setup:
- wordpress 3.8
- CDN - Rackspace Cloudfiles synced with w3 total cache plugin (using the 'origin push' configuration)
- using Cloudflare (mozilla appears to load the site fine while cloudflare is active)
More about the problem--
I suspect that the problem has something to do with the htaccess file redirecting some urls or something-- but im not quite sure what to do about this.
Has anyone encountered this problem before who can offer some insight?
thanks

Hi pvijeh, is that the explanation for a security error? I'm having trouble understanding the context.

Finding Flash Installation, alter settings and use with webcam

I am running on Windows 7 using Chrome. I am doing a course where I need to send information from my webcam to a website. I downloaded Flash Player and somewhere on the website it had a section where it had the address of the university. It also had another address not applicable so I deleted that and in doing so also deleted the address of the uni. I know diddly squat about both the webcam and Flash and am really running out of time to submit my assignments. Flash did unload on my computer, but to where, I have no idea. I have done searches but it nothing. So that took most of yesterday. Today, I researched it further and it was suggested that Flash was incorporated in Google and was enabled by fault and included in Chrome system updates. So I went into plug ins and find the Flash listing is enabled. There is also only one listing on the plug ins in spite of me downloading one yesterday and it is supposed to be on Chrome as well. .Bottom line ..... how do Flash and the webcam work together? How do I reinstall the university's web address on Flash, does it automatically attach itself to webcam and then do I get the option of who I share my webcam work with. Hope you can understand all this because I can't and I am getting a mighty nervous about getting these assignments out. Many thanks

This is the Shockwave Player forum; your question should be posted in the Flash Player forum.

CP 8 crashes and closes when using the web object.

Adobe Captivate 8 is crashing when using the web object, give me a box which says I need to close the program. How can I fix this issue?

Hi There,
Can you please confirm your operating system ? Do you have the full administrative rights ? Are you getting any error when trying to insert Web Object interaction ?
Would like to inform you Captivate 6 onwards interactions have been uploaded on server. Captivate pings this server on a regular basis, If there is any firewall or strict network policy then it might take some time to check the URL or might be result in crash or freeze.

Flash player controls missing when using embedding in HTML

I would really like your help on this one

Hi,
Please check that your swfobject.js file is located where your .swf file and.html file are published. Your .swf file, .html file and swfobject.js should be placed on the same folder.
In my Flash CS4 the code generated in the HTML file is different and is having 318 lines of code. But the code which you pasted below looks different. If you are not able to see the flash content only in HTML file then it might be active content blocking. Please refer the link which provides fix for active content blocking manually.

L655-S5154 Freezes when using the webcam

I completely rebuild my laptop with the restore discs provided by Toshiba. I also installed all of the drivers that Toshiba support pointed me to. After the rebuild the laptop runs great except when I use the webcam. Whenever I use the webcam after about 3 mins the whole system locks up and you have to do a force restart to get it going again. After having this happen a few times I noticed that right before the unit freezes it makes a buzzing noise. If you end the webcam session when you hear that noise the unit doesn't freeze and it's functional until I shut it down. I used the drivers Toshiba told me to use, why is this happening only when I use the webcam?

DEAD BATTERY!!!! Removed dead battery, performed without a flaw, replaced the battery, froze up... Who knew????

Repeated flash crashes in Firefox

Flash crashes repeatedly for me in Firefox on a new 2015 MacBook Retina (12" display)
I saw from another thread that the Firefox crash reports are helpful to the group moderators for crashes, so here are some of mine:

the crash analysis shows it's likely 1146036 – Adobe Flash 17.0.0.134/169 crashing on Flash thread in libGL.dylib in FF 34 and up which makes sense (crash on retina displays with flash hardware acceleration on) Unfortunately there's no clear fix yet other than turning off acceleration as a workaround...

Adobe Flash crashes every time I use it in Firefox

I am tired of Adobe Flash constantly crashing on me using the latest versions of Firefox and Flash. I have tried updating both Firefox and Flash to the latest versions. I have tried disabling hardware acceleration. I have uninstalled Realplayer. NONE OF THESE RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS have helped. This is making Firefox unusable for me. I am having to use Chrome now. Help me.

Hi savandarm, you may need to disable some advanced features to get Flash to work correctly.
'''(1) Hardware acceleration (triggers graphics card driver incompatibilities)'''
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here (this takes effect after you restart Firefox):
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
'''(2) Protected mode feature (spawns multiple external Flash processes)'''
The following pages provide different ways to disable the feature:
* Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
* Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209
* Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078
Any improvement?

Flash player crashes my computer when used . . . please help!

the newest versions of flash player required for use in you tube and hulu crash my computer and causes it to reboot. I'm using windows xp home edition 32 bit, have updated my drivers, and have tried to use several different versions of the flash player 10( installing the other versions first), as well as trying to use it in internet explorer 8, firefox 5, and google chrome. The computer does not crash unless the flash player is in use. I have tried everything I can think of, to no avail. This problem did not happen UNTIL I was forced to udate the flash player to the latest version in order to watch Hulu and you tube due to their requirements. PLEASE HELP!
