Flash in Firefox after a certain period of time

I dunno if this is a common problem amongst others that are experienced but I leave my desktop on 24/7 and typically have Firefox open with a session of many tabs, so when I come back to the box and view a flash video (this is after many hours, perhaps after work the next day or such) it pauses about 2 seconds in or so and the sound doesn't work, then a few seconds later it is like it's trying to play the sound but it does the du-du-du-du stuttering thing, it's frozen and I have to close the tab and even 5-10 seconds after that until the sound stops. I pretty much have to restart FF to get flash working right again.
I have never had probs with FF and flash but I think some recent update may have done this, not sure. I use an M-Audio Revolution 7.1 card that works perfectly in all other means (5.1, stereo upmixed to 5 channels, multiple apps using sound simultaneously, etc.). Just a flash issue here or perhaps my configuration?
TIA

That sounds like a plan-- did you install this: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21045  ?? If so, I would just remove the flashplugin I have installed via pacman and install this right? Thanks

    If you update to iOS 8, you can select that in Settings>Messages>Keep Message and then select your option. If you don't update to iOS 8, you'll need to do it manually.

  • How can I set TB to auto delete emails after a certain period of time?

    I have two email accounts set up in TB.. I am using TB 24.5.0, and one of the email accounts is a Gmail account, and the other is a Microsoft Exchange account with a domain I own running through Office 365. I suppose technically TB looks at that account like an IMAP, although it is not an IMAP per se.
    In any event, I am coming to TB new from using Outlook 2010 and 2013. I would like to figure out a way to create rules for each of the email accounts that would automatically delete emails from my inbox after they are a certain age. I would also like to determine how I can establish a retention policy for emails I know I want to keep beyond their automatic purge time frame.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

    This only works with IMAP accounts.
    Tools (Alt-T) - Account Settings<br>
    Select your account - Synchronization and Storage
    Make sure to move any messages you want to keep to the Local Folders account prior to making changes. Local Folders should be set to keep messages forever.<br>
    Note, this is a manual step.

  • Troubleshooting Guide: Audio does not Work after a Certain Period of Time

    Hello everyone, Thanks for choosing the HP Forums! If your sound recently stopped working on Windows 8.x or Windows Server 2012, and you suspect a Windows Update is involved, then look no further! This is the troubleshooting guide that will explain how to resolve the issue! Explanation: Currently, there is a Windows update that may be causing the sound on your computer to stop working. The update is KB2962407, and it is now an “Important” update. That means that it will be installed by Windows Update unless you hide it. This thread also covers generic sound troubleshooting that can resolve "no sound" issues. Before tackling the update itself, since a Windows update may not be the culprit, there is some troubleshooting that can be done. A Round of Troubleshooting: 1. Running the Audio Troubleshooting in Windows 8 can resolve the issue. It does contain the ability to eliminate any setting that affects sound. Here are some steps on how to run this troubleshooter: a) Hold down the “Windows” and “R” key and then type “troubleshooting” and hit Enter.b) A window will open. On the left, click “View All”, then “Playing Audio”.c) Click “Advanced” and run it as Administrator. Then click “Next” to complete the process. 2. Try creating a new user account. The changes forced by the update may only affect one user. This HP document shows you how to create a new user under the “Creating a new account in Windows 8” section: Managing User Accounts and Logins (Windows 8) 3. Try a pair of headphones or external speakers. It will rule out where the issue lies if sound does not work through a second or third output device. 4. Another solution is to uninstall the driver manually then force it to be installed again:a) Open Device Manager, and go to the “Sound, video and game controller” section.b) Right-click on your audio driver and select “uninstall”.c) Restart the computer. This will force the hardware to write a new driver upon startup. 5. Finally, make sure that the remaining steps that you haven't tried from this document are attempted: No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8) New Inclusions: Disabling and enabling the sound driver has been tested with successful results enough for me to post here. These are the instructions to do this: a) Open Device Manager, and go to the “Sound, video and game controller” section.b) Right-click on your audio driver and select “disable”.c) Wait a minute, then right-click on it and select "enable" Also, A System Restore is also a valid troubleshooting step. This will return the computer to a point before the update and/or external source of the issue occurred. Here is a document on how to perform a System Restore: System Restore If you want something stronger, a Windows Refresh completely refreshes Windows 8, without affecting files: Refresh Your PC to Resolve Problems (Windows 8) Also, here is a Windows sound troubleshooting tutorial. Just out of curiosity, I re-created the issue on a Windows 8 computer and went through this tutorial. It was able to resolve the issue: No sound in Windows  *Everything in italics  is currently un-tested, but will be tested as soon as possible. I believe these steps will help: In the search bar, type "services.msc" and hit Enter. Hold down the "Windows" key and "R" key. Type "services.msc" and hit Enter. Look for the following services: - Audio Service- Windows Audio- Windows Audio Endpoint Builder I want you to right-click each of those services, and select "Stop". When they are all stopped, right-click on each one again, and select "Start". As well, make sure each service's status is "Started" and their startup type is "Automatic". Troubleshooting the Update: At this point, unless you want to reinstall the operating system, the only other option is to tackle the update, KB2962407. Please note that the following troubleshooting is ONLY a workaround, for now, and only should be done if the computer has installed this update. First, you can try the Hotfix in this Microsoft document, specifically to address KB2962407: Windows RT, Windows 8, and Windows Server 2012 update rollup: June 2014 If that doesn't help, then uninstalling the Windows Update, and then hiding it, is the only method of eliminating the issue if it caused by this update. Here is the procedure for uninstalling the update: 1. Go into Control Panel, then click on “Programs and Features”.2. Click on “View Installed Updates”. Look for the update with the ID number KB2962407.3. Right-click on the update and select “Uninstall”. Restart the computer. Next, here is the procedure for hiding the update: 1. Go into Control Panel, then click on “Windows Updates”.2. Click on “Check for Updates”. When the process is completed, is should find important update(s) available. Clicking on the message will open a window where the important update(s) is.3. Right-click on the KB2962407 update and select “Hide Update”. This will prevent the update from being installed next time Windows Updates are being installed. Conclusion:
    At the end of this guide, you will have sound working again (assuming that the cause was the Windows Update, or at least software-based). Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks!
    Mario

    Hello everyone  Thank you so much for making use of my thread, dedicated to resolve the issue. I appreciate all the feedback  For those who are still experiencing issues, please reply to this post with the following information, and I can continue to assist: 1. The computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your notebook product number 2. The computer's operating system. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website to determine your Windows operating system. (Make sure to include whether it's 32 or 64 bit.) 3. Does this occur on certain programs, or all programs? 4. Have you installed any new software or drivers on this computer, before the issue appeared? 5. What steps have been attempted from my first post on this thread, and what were the results? Additionally, if the issue just began occurring, I would perform a system restore. I want you to bring the computer back to the earliest restore point possible, in an attempt to dodge whatever caused the issue. Here is a document on how to perform a System Restore: System Restore Thanks again for all the continued support! Mario

  • Flash movies stop after a random amount of time,

    The problem that I am having is that flash movie files (Every website) play for a moment or two and then stop with the little “loading” symbol turning endlessly in the center of the screen. Flash movies used to work with no problem but over the span of the last few months it went from not working well to not working at all. In a perhaps related problem sometimes downloads will stop after a certain length of time and also seem to “hang” at a random spot. If I pause the reload and then restart it the program or whatever will usually finish downloading. This doesn’t happen often but does happen. The flash movie thing, though, happens every time – no matter what browser I have tried. (Firefox, IE, IE with no add-ons, and Chrome anyway.)
    I have tried solutions that I have found all across the internet, including the Adobe and Microsoft forums, to no avail. I have unloaded flash with the Adobe uninstaller and reloaded flash. I have tried various flash releases – with and without a firewall on. I have made sure that I am using the 32 bit version of IE and even tried running everything in “administrator mode.” I’ve upgraded every driver that I can upgrade. I’ve used a registry checker as a last resort. I even used the Dell partition to return my computer back to the condition that it was in when I bought it and that didn’t change anything either.
    Everything I have tried has made zero difference. In the hopes that someone will have another idea for me to try I am putting all the stats for my computer that I can think of below.

    Thank you for answering eidnolb -
    Answering your questions...
    Have you had a Virus and if so what Anti-Virus program removed it?
    No virus that I am aware of
    Since you have a Dell, McAfee came pre-installed? Did you remove it prior to Installing MSE? If so, did you use the McAfee Removal Tool or just remove it from Control Panel/Programs & Features?
    My computer did come  with McAfee which isn't on my computer now. I used a program called "Decrapifier" that removes unwanted preloaded software that comes with PCs.
    Is McAfee still Installed?
    No
    Do you have any Anti-Virus/Spyware programs other than MSE?
    No - I have just used MSE until now. I thought about using AVAST but was't sure what running 2 virus/spyware programs would be like.
    Since MSE doesn't have a Firewall, do you use any Firewall other than Windows? If so, which?
    I use Windows Firewall. I have tried both adding Youtube as an allowed program and switching the firewall off enirely with no luck.
    Do you use a Router? Is it Wireless?
    I do have a Lynksys router that is a little older but I've also tried hooking the modem directly to the computer.
    Is Qwest wireless?
    I use the wired ports and not the wireless for my connection.
    Other than IE8, what browsers and versions are Installed now?
    I only have IE8 now. I never reinstalled the other browsers after using the Dell partition. I prefer Firefox so having to use IE is frustrating.
    I've also used "RegestryBooster" to make sure that my regestry looked okay.
    Thanks again for taking the time to answer. I think you are right about me doing too much - LOL

  • Youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time, but audio continues.

    As it says in the title, most Youtube videos freeze after a certain amount of time for me, but the audio continues.
    Happens on Firefox, IE and Chrome

    This happens mostly because of obsolate drivers.

  • Information on the reports that have run over a certain period of time

    Hi everybody,
    do you know any report (programme, table or other object) that provides with the information on what reports have been called by the users over a certain period of time in the past? I am especially interested in the reports in the customer name space (z-reports). Once there was a programme called RBE (Reverse Business Engineer) that could give this information, but it doesn't function in ECC 5.0 & ECC 6.0 anymore and no longer supported by SAP.
    I would be grateful for any information. Thank you! Nat

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    You will need to show patience with the procedure and be prepared to demonstrate without question that the account belongs to you. Don’t expect access to be restored immediately and if you aren’t the owner of the Apple ID registered to the device the account won’t be reset.

    Have you tried a hard reset yet?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Otherwise, try a restore from an earlier backup in iTunes.

    Firefox has been working great, until I booted this morning. The first part of the page below the toolbar, about 1/4, if there are any search fields or hyperlinks I am unable to select those. After a certain point. only then am I able to make selections,chat, or anything else that requires a selection. All other browsers work fine.

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.
