Flash crashes sound and prevents sound from being used on the entire computer

Hi everyone,
I have been using firefox all my life and have been running into the following issue recently.
Whenever I play flash games (such as chess.com), after a minute or two the sound stops working. At first I thought it was just the website, but I would navigate to a youtube video that used flash and it would crash after 1 second. I then tried to play a song locally and it said that I was out of memory, which I doubt since I have 16gb of RAM. I tried running chess.com on IE (sadly) and everything worked fine.
I am starting to run out of ideas. I have reinstalled firefox and flash. Any debugging information that I can provide, just let me know how to get it for you.
Some info about my computer/setup:
Windows 7
Firefox 34.0.5
Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.235
Thanks
Update:
I am now experiencing similar issues on my Windows 8.1 box. This might be caused from a windows update. Will update if I find out more

It's related to your video card drivers.  You can tell Flash to not use hardware acceleration.  This might solve the issue.  You also might want to make sure you're running the latest available drivers for your hardware.

  • How can I prevent breadcrumbs from being used on the first page?

    Hi,
    I'm using the latest version of the technical communication suite to produce a WebHelp
    layout from a framemaker book. Thanks to all the help I've received so far it's proceeding
    well, although slowly.
    II have an initia l'home'  page, that isn't present in the TOC, just with a program logo, a company
    logo and a helpdesk address. How can I stop breadcrumbs from appearing on this page?
    I'm happy for this to be the Home page and to keep the word Home, and it is a separate
    document in the linked framemaker book.
    Has anyone got any ideas as to how I can do this?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Best wishes,
    Karen

    Hi Karen
    To each his or her own. Jeff's approach certainly will work but will require you to repeat the process each time you generate. With the approach I outlined you would only need to do things once.
    As for the breadcrumbs not appearing at all, it depends on *WHERE* in the Master Page you elected to add them. In order for the approach I outlined to work, you need to ensure you add the placeholder *OUTSIDE* the Body placeholder. Then you should see breadcrumbs on the pages you have associated with the Master Page.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Is there a way to send an email and prevent it from being forwarded

    Is there a way to send an email and prevent it from being forwarded

    Not with the most common email systems - webmail, POP, SMTP or IMAP. 
    The only email system I know of that can prevent forwarding (or copying or printing) is Lotus Notes (now called IBM Notes).  I believe it can technically be done within an MS Exchange environment, but I have never actually seen it implemented in one.

  • Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    After I had updated to Itunes 11 (also on Windows 7), I had the same experience, but I suspect that it was because I accepted a proposal to set up an external media library in order to simplify security backups. An associated result was that I had lost all of my playlists!
    What I did was to restore the entire library off my Ipod, using a very good program called PodToPC (a free download is available) selecting an option to replace all of the stuff in the Itunes library. I use the Ipod Classic simply because it has a large capacity to hold my collection of CD and Vinyls. No way was I going to modify duplicates of 10000 tracks in 750 playslists by hand!  I did have a few residual problems with some of the playlist specs but, after a few hours of work all was restored.
    I hope this is useful.

  • How can an iTunes Match user prevent songs from being uploaded to the iCloud?

    Has anyone who is currently using iTunes Match found a way to prevent selected songs in their music library from being uploaded to the iCloud. I have a number of audio files that are hour long mixes, but aren't quite large enough to run afoul of the 200MB size limit. I'd like to keep using iTunes Match, but would like to prevent it from trying to upload any of these larger files. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Another oddity I just discovered is that if I turn on wifi hotspot on my phone and connect my iMac to my phone's 3G service then iTunes on my iMac will stream music just fine from iTunes match (yes, the music was only in the cloud, not on my drive).
    I've tried everything I can think of to get iTunes Match to play tracks over cellular.. including totally deauthorizing all my computers and devices, totally removing all tracks my itunes match in the cloud and re-scanning/uploading everything. Purchased new tracks, and they won't play unless they are downloaded. But they will play just fine when previeing them for purchase in iTunes app.

  • Prevent JNLP from being cached in the Java Web Start cache

    Hi,
    when i launch a JNLP it's always being cached in the Java Web Start cache. Is there a way to prevent it from being cached? Some attribute/property inside it?
    Thanks!

    Set the http headers in the response from the server when the client downloads the jnlp file.
    eg Cache-control no-cache
    Expires (use same date as "date" header)
    Note that over SSL on Internet Explorer 8 this will not work. All other configurations should be ok.

  • Is there a conflict between Reader XI and Acrobat being used on the same computer?

    I downloaded the new Abode Reader XI. The computer in question has, also, Adobe Acrobat 7. Is there a conflict between them if used on the same computer? I can not open any PDFs and now the saved PDFs I had on the computer will not open and the icon shown on the desktop is gone. Please advise as I scan documents to this computer all the time and the person who needs to see them can not.

    I have Acrobat 8.1.6 and Reader XI on Win XP. Do these conflict? Should I get rid of the newer Reader?
    I'm having problems printing to the PDF print driver, locks up system, shows printer offline in spooler. I doubt problem is with driver itself because I can print a Test Page from it ok. But printing to Adobe PDF from Word & other apps locks up & never completes.
    There's an Exclamation Point next to Acrotray in Explorer. (see image)  What does this mean??
    Have tried Repair install of Acrobat twice.

  • I want to prevent history from being erases and prevent settings from being changed

    I supervise the macs for a club and our policy is no nudity (porno,) lately we have been having a lot of trouble with that and in trying to track the culprits, they have started deleting the history. how can I prevent them viewing porno and /or prevent them from erasing the history? this has become a huge issue, we even have one person who has ended up in jail because of this.

    You can't really prevent people from erasing the history. You will have to install a router with a (password protected) logging feature and reroute all computers through that router.
    You posted with a Firefox 2.0.0.20 version, so I assume that the computer run an older Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier version.<br />
    Are all computers old Macs that still have a Mac OS X 10.3.x or lower?

  • How can I prevent commas from being entered in the zip code field?

    I tried entering the following validation on the Bill To Address field but it did not work. Not sure if it's because the address fields are grouped together.
    NOT(InStr([<PrimaryBillToPostalCode>], ',') > 0 AND [<PrimaryBillToCountry>] = 'USA')

    The Billing and Shipping fields are links to the address records in the adress table. Validation will not work on them. The only avenue that I can find to try to accomplish this would be to have workflow that monitors the address fields and takes action accordingly. That workflow can always set the Country to USA and it could also update the Address field or whatever field you are monitoring for commas.
    Good Luck,
    Thom

  • Need to disable the Software Center or prevent it from being installed with the agent

    Hi,
    I have done a client push out to all systems in my environment, including servers, in order to keep our systems patched.  My server admin has requested that I remove the Software Center and only keep the agent.  I would have thought I'd be able
    to find this in client settings, but wasn't able to find anything there.  I understand my server admin's concern because we have software deployed to the All Users collection, and we don't want that software to be available for installation if an admin
    user logs into one of the servers.
    Thanks in advance for replies!

    Hi,
    You can do that by installing the SCCM client with CCMSetup.exe /ExcludeFeatures:ClientUI more information on the command line switches,

  • Is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten when importing data via xdp-file?

    In an pdf-form designed with LCD everytime the form gets merged with an xdp-datafile content of all fields get overwritten, regardless which data-binding (normal, global, none) is assigned to the fields and regardless if the fields are exluded in the xdp-datafile. Is this normal behavior and is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten?

    The xdp-file is first exported from Acrobat Professional 8 (export data as *.xdp) to get the complete structure. Then in the xdp-file some fields are removed manually and other fields are filled with data. When the modified xdp-file is opened again with Acrobat Professional 8 it grabs the original pdf-form and merges the manually filled fields into the form. With the merge all other fields in the form are overwritten, even if they are not defined in the xdp-file. And that is what I want to avoid. I want to merge the xdp-file into the form and keep the data in fields not defined in the xdp-file.

  • Prevent batches from being changed in MB1A

    Hi,
        I am looking to prevent batches from being changed by the material handler during the MB1A transaction. Does anyone know of any user exit or BADI in the MB1A tcode to acomplish this or any other way to do it ? The batches determined during production order batch determination are the ones which should be issued out and if for some reason the batch needs to be changed, they should get back to their supervisor to issue a different batch. Is all of this even possible ?
    Thanks

    Hi GS,
    Please check  Enhancement MBCFC010  Propose batch number on Inventory Management item screen or MB_CHECK_LINE_BADI - BAdI.

  • Preventing iPhone from restoring using iTunes

    Hi all
    Is there any way to prevent the iphone from being restored when connected to iTunes?
    I want to do this because everytime the iPhone is restored, there is an option to restore as a new phone, and the iPhone has some "Restriction" settings that would be removed in this case. I would like the "Restriction" settings to be in place and prevent it from being bypassed.
    Please advise, thanks.

    Is there any way to prevent the iphone from being restored when connected to iTunes?
    You can setup iTunes to not sync the iPhone automatically when connected to the computer.
    Launch iTunes. From the menu bar top of your screen click iTunes > Preferences then select the Devices tab.
    Select:  Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads form syncing automatically
    Click OK.

  • How to prevent ipad apps from being stored in the iCloud and how to bring them back to the iPad

    I have an iPad Mini Retina with 128GB of storage.  I purchased about a dozen apps and it gets stored in the iCloud and I don't know how to access them on the cloud storage.  Plus I have many apps from me itouch that I use and they are also stored on the iCloud. 
    How can I prevent further apps that I buy from gettting transfer to the iCloud?
    How can I download my existing apps that I purchase and that are from my itouch that are stored in the iCloud into my iPad?
    How do I access my iCloud storage from my iPad?
    Thanks.

    You make it sound like apps are disappearing from your iPad and uploading to iCloud. That's not how it works. Maybe somebody (or you) deleted the apps and you don't realize it.
    You cannot prevent apps from being stored in iCloud. That is one of the reasons for using iCloud. It will store all of your purchased apps and you will be able to download them if you delete them, or if you buy another device that you want to use the apps on.
    If you have apps that are in iCloud, just go to the Purchased Tab in the app store, tap on the Not on this iPad button at the top. Look for any of the apps that you want to download and then tap the cloud icon in order to download them to the iPad. You access your iCloud storage in the purchased tabs of the different stores or in the apps themselves. Any data that is being backed up in iCloud is on the device in the corresponding apps and you don't need to access that data in iCloud. It's at your fingertips already,
    Purchased apps do NOT count against your iCloud storage. If you have 60GB of apps, they do not take up the alloted 5GB of free storage that you get. The app data would count against the storage but not the apps themselves.
