Flash doesn't work on PBS website

Recently, I installed a new hard drive in my MacBook. I used the opportunity to install fresh copies of everything. When I go to http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/politics/jan-june13/shieldsbrooks_06-14.html, all I get is a black screen where the flash video should display. The same problem has happened on other web sites but Flash also works on some web sites. I have had this problem on earlier versions of Firefox and Flash too. I have Apple OS X Snow Leopard v10.6.8 installed. I have installed all the updates available for this version. I am using the latest version of Firefox, v21.0. I am using the latest version of Flash, v11.7.700.225. I have uninstalled both Flash and Firefox and reinstalled them. I have scoured all the Mozilla support web sites, the Adobe web site and I Googled the problem and only found a suggestion to reinstall everything which I have already tried. The PBS web site works fine in both Safari and Chrome. To be honest, I am tired of the Flash problems and the slowness of Firefox. I have to restart Firefox often. Is there anyone who knows how to fix Firefox and Flash?

That is a CloudFront media player:

Do you otherwise have problems with playing media files?
Does the player load when you click the PBSPlayer.swf link?

  • I just installed Lion and now my adobe flash doesn't work at a website where i like to use it to cam

    I just installed Lion and now my adobe flash player doesn't work to allow me to cam at a website that uses adobe flash to support camming there.  It worked fine yesterday when I had  Snow Leopard installed but right after I installed Lion it stopped working.

  • Back Button Doesn't Work on Some Websites

    How come my Back Button Doesn't Work on Some Websites? It just keeps redisplaying the same page over and over. Example:
    http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/front

    Back button behaviour can be pretty wierd. I usually use the keyboard combination, but for some reason it doesn't work on PDF's and I have to end up using the graphical back button.
    There are some websites out there that for some reason or another break the Back button's behaviour. Sometimes I have to hold down the mouse button to get the back button menu in order to work around that problem.
    In another case there was this page in Amazon that wouldn't allow me to go back to. Everytime I went to that page the browser to automatically kick me to the next page. I had to disable javascript to work around that problem.

  • I have a black iphone 5 and my flash doesn't work it used to work every once in a while but stopped

    I have a black iphone 5 and my flash doesn't work it used to work every once in a while but stopped I went into the camera app and tried to see if it would flash when I took a picture but I saw it light very faintly and hasn't done lot up since. Should I get the led replaced?

    First, try bringing up Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the home screen.  Turn on the flashlight by tapping the icon in the lower left.  Does the flashlight work?  If not, perhaps you have a hardware issue.
    If it works, check the top of the screen when you open the Camera app to make sure you have the flash on.

  • IPhone 4s glitches, is cracked, and camera flash doesn't work. What is the cost to exchange for a new one?

    Front screen of my iPhone 4s is cracked, it freezes/lags, camera flash doesn't work, and every time you press a bit harder on the front screen red and grey vertical lines appear. I have had it for more than a year now, so how much will it cost for me to replace it?

    These prices are for the U.S.
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
    iPhone model          Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 5          $229
    iPhone 4S          $199
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
    iPhone 3G, Original iPhone          $149
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax.
    When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorization for the maximum service fee listed above.  This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

  • Flash doesn't work suddenly [SOLVED]

    Today flash doesn't work anymore, I do not remember any modifications. In Firefox the browser segfaults after a few seconds of flash content. In Opera the flash area is replaced with weird graphics http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/5845 … 0x800s.png like this. I reinstalled flash10, no help. I installed flash9, no help, same problems.
    Also, gnash plugin works for most flash content, but not for youtube though (on youtube I'll just get a blueish empty screen). Viewing flash videos is a must for my PC use..
    EDIT:
    I discovered that my sound didn't work, and I remember removing dbus from my modules since somebody says HAL starts it.
    I solved it by adding dbus after hal in modules. I know that people say you shouldn't do that, and it creates this error text at bootup, but that did fix my sound, and my flash issues. Weird.

    that didnt do the trick either.
    I decided to reinstall flashplugin, and then i noticed a warning that said "warning: directory permissions differ on usr/lib/mozilla. filesystem: 700 package: 755."
    should i just try to chmod /usr/lib/mozilla, and then reinstall Flash?
    EDIT: Yep, i just ran sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/mozilla, and reinstalled flash. Works well

  • I have latest version of flash but flash doesn't work in safari!

    Why do I have latest version of flash but flash doesn't work in safari!I have flash for mac.Your help will be appreciated.

    If you're talking about using Flash on your iPod, you can't. There is no version of Flash that will work on any iOS device. If you're talking about using Flash on your computer, you may want to repost in the correct forum.

  • Flash doesn't work and work with another browser!!

    ''locking as a duplicate of - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/900202''
    Flash doesn't work and work with another browser!!.
    The message is " An error occurred, please try again later" just with youtube. Other sites work. Another browser works with youtube!!

    Whay do you mean "difficult with the camer?"
    Two things that might help. Reset all your settings and reset the phone.  Use the Settings app to reset all settings. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings  Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that helps.

  • My Flash doesn't work on IE 8

    I am a webmaster with an existing flash on
    http://www.patriciawells.com
    No changes to the flash in about a year. Works great on IE 7,
    Firefox, Netscape, Opera, etc....
    Downloaded IE 8 Beta 2 this morning and the flash doesn't
    work.... Displays an x in the box (like a missing pix on an html
    page).
    Called Microsoft and they basically told me take a long walk
    off a short pier.... So much for them caring about how their beta
    works....
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Well, all your object embed tags are correct so it's
    obviously the Beta problem.
    Nothing can do about it.

  • IPhone 5 torch and flash doesn't work

    iPhone 5 torch and flash doesn't work? How can I activate?

    The flash is activated as follows:
    When you are in camera mode, and the camera is open about to take a photo, you will see an elliptical button in the upper left with a flash-like sign.  Press that button and you will find it has three settings: Auto, On, and Off.
    Choose one.
    I don't know what you mean by "torch".

  • Flash doesn't work in Firefox 13

    Installed Firefox 13 yesterday. Now flash doesn't work. Have done all the supposed fixes to no avail. Have uninstalled and reinstalled flash. I'm at my wits end with this issue. I'm a web designer who uses flash in a number of my sites. VERY IRRITATING when my sites don't display properly. Anyone have a solution other than the pat Mozilla "fixes"?

    I received a PM from '''CheckMate''' about this thread. Since this is something that I think should be discussed openly I'll reply here.
    The ActiveX plugin (npmozax.dll) issue is now fixed via the Mozilla blocklist, which automatically disables it. For some background on the ActiveX plugin issue, see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/forums/contributors/708425 Blocking the old ActiveX plugin] in the contributor's forum thread.
    The Flash 11.3 Firefox protected mode problem is a separate issue and one related bug is [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747683 747683] So, if you did have the ActiveX plugin installed and it is now disabled, AND you have Flash 11.3 installed, then the issue is no longer the ActiveX plugin.
    If the problem is Flash 11.3 protected mode (or other issues with Flash 11.3) it's not a good idea to suggest downgrading to 11.2.202.235. The reason why uninstalling Flash and going to a page that requires Flash installs an older version is because the Plugin Finder Service hasn't been updated yet! This is from http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Installing_Flash_on_Windows <br>
    '''Quote:'''<br>
    ''If the Flash plugin is not installed and you visit a page that has Flash content that requires the plugin, the Plug-in Finder Service can download and install Flash for you (see [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+the+Flash+plugin Installing the Flash plugin (Firefox Support)] for more information). If you want to try this method and Flash is already installed, you can [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Uninstalling_Flash uninstall Flash] and then visit [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Adobe's Flash test page] to launch the Plugin Finder Service ; however, it may offer you an outdated version.''
    The alternative (disabling Flash 11.3 protected mode by editing an obscure file) is not good either. I don't know what to suggest in those cases. I think it would be a good idea if you could bring this up in the SUMO Community Discussions forum. There's already a topic started on Flash 11.3 issues, here:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/forums/contributors/708430 Flash 11.3 issues (was: flash 11.3 released)
    Here is your original message, for reference:
    ''Hi, Alice- You locked the thread on the Adobe Flash Plugin update 11.300.257 not working question but you really shouldn't have for the following reasons. First, although I too found today that the Active X has been blocked as of June 7, the problem persists and the instruction is to contact the manufacturer. How about contacting Adobe and straightening this out on the Developer level instead of closing the thread because there's another temporary but much simpler solution that I found. Second, the instructions on how to disable Protected Mode are nuts. I'm pretty advanced, but my common sensed tells me this is too complicated to bother with and shouldn't be necessary and you yourself say this isn't a permanent fix. Third, I found a much simpler solution, at least until this bug is fixed. Completely uninstall the Plugin from the Add and Remove Programs list. Then, when you try to access any video on YouTube which uses the Plugin, Firefox reports that it needs an additional Plugin to play the video (look specifically for the FF blue plugin icon). When you click on it, it automatically downloads the PREVIOUS VERSION, 11.2.202.235 which works perfectly. But if you click on the warning below it that Adobe Flash is needed, the buggy 11.3.300.257 version will be installed again! This has to be fixed by the Developers. Until it is, the fix is simply to roll back the faulty update, which could have also been done with a restore point but I wanted to find the cause. FF apparently knows automatically that this plugin is faulty and installs the previous version, but the other instruction is contradictory and installs the 11.3.300.257 Nice!?!? ''

  • Flash player doesn't work on some websites

    Hi,
    For some reason, video stays black on some websites, some other websites like youtube work. I applied the permissions fix that I found which worked at first but now the problem is back and this fix doesn't work anymore.
    I tried everything from fresh install to using older version, nothing works.
    I don't know what else to do.
    Thanks

  • Updated to Flash 10 for OSX10.4 but it doesn't work on some websites

    I'm using Firefox but it happens in Safari as well. Some websites are OK. But others with flash appear blank or on myspace the music says i need to update my flash player. I have the newest flash player. I went to the check if flash installed correctly and i see the animation and all is fine. But some websites with flash don't seem to work.
    Is there an easy fix somehow? Why do some work and others left blank?

    there must be a solution. come on guys... i uninstalled using the adobe uninstaller and reinstalled but still no good. works for some websites, doesn't work for others
