Flash no longer works in Chrome

I was playing apps on facebook on a Chrome browser last night, when at about midnight (cst) Flash crashed. No problem, usually I just refresh & it's fine. Not last night. I uninstalled & reinstalled six times. No luck. Absolutely no Flash working on Chrome. I switched to IE8, where it does crash more often than it used to on Chrome, but was still working after one uninstall/reinstall. Reading the forums, I got so confused, I don't know what to do. I don't understand all the technical terms. I gather from reading that a new version was released, which appears to be the problem. My computer is 64-bit, which I am aware is the problem causing the crashes. Can I get some help in plain-English-computer-idiot? Please. I miss my farmville & my food spoiled in cafe world.
thanks,
Pam (dewolf99)

hey, thanks for getting back to me so fast.
Guess what? My computer-genius son is down for the weekend, and fixed whatever I did wrong. He said that while Chrome appeared to be closed, there were still Chrome.exe processes remaining. As a result, when I tried to install Flash, it would install incorrectly...telling me the download was successful, while in reality it wasn't.
Let me know if you still want that info, I can still post it if you want me to.
Thanks, Pam (dewolf99)

Subject: Flash no longer works in Chrome
Hi, thanks for starting your thread:-) Yes it is confusing, I agree. Some threads are more so and I didn't want you to get mixed up in those.
Please post back what operating system you are using, Windows XP, ??. Also since your system is a 64bit, you always need to use the 32bit browser, which I'm sure you are aware of.
In order to save you some time, go to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash Right click on Flash and Open the folder. Then post back all files listed there. The files NPSWF you will need to right click on each one and then click on Properties in order to obtain the version numbers.
If you need direction on how to get to the Flash folder let me know.
Keep in mind also, that since Adobe come out with an update for Flash Player, some of the websites may be updating as well. Hopefully it was just a glitch and nothing wrong with your computer Flash Player. We'll see.
Thanks,

Upgraded to CS3 and Flash no longer works in browsers

Since upgrading to CS3 my Flash no longer works in my top
table. Exact same files worked fine in CS and CS2 and whatever it
was before CS. Any Flash that is in the top table on any of my
pages doesn't appear.
Now it doesn't appear in IE or Firefox. Can see it fine if I
"preview in browser" but when uploaded to site can't view at all.
Any solutions? Please reply to [email protected]
Thanks.

Ok got this working. Went into my code and deleted everything
from the javascript tag to the closing script tag (see below).
Reinserted my SWF file and it works like a charm.

Flash no longer works with Firefox 13

so I have Firefox 13.0.1 and upgraded flashplayer to 11.3 and flash no longer works. I've tried lots of things, but finally downgraded flas player to 11.2. Still no joy. The only way I can get Flash to work is if I start Firefox in safemode with add-ons disabled. If i manually disable add-ons from within Firefox is still doesn't work, so I guess that isn't quite the same as the safemode disabling. I don't have RealPlayer installed. I tried creating a new profile, but still no joy. Any other ideas for me to try please?

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

Since installing Flash update today, Flash no longer works on FireFox (works fine on IE)

As prompted, Adobe Flash update was installed today. Since installing , Flash no longer works with FireFox (works ok with IE);

Hi guys - for me this helped.
Close Firefox - open Internet Explorer - got to the Adobe Flash Player Site:
http://get.adobe.com/de/flashplayer/
In IE you can see there is the 64-bit version - (in Firefox there was just the 32-bit version) - got to: (others)
http://get.adobe.com/de/flashplayer/otherversions/
choose your system and version
download it via internet explorer and install the adobe flash player
restart firefox and it should work.
helped me after wasting one day of my life to find a solution, alle sites work just fine now.
hope this helps.

Flash Player stopped working for Chrome in Windows 8

Randomly, the flash player stopped working for Chrome. I run a Windows 8 system. Everytime I go to a website that uses the flash plugin (youtube, video streaming websites) a bar pops up telling me that the plug in will only work in the desktop. I've never encountered this problem before.
I have:
1. Checked to see if I needed updates. I'm all updated.
2. Reinstalled Chrome to try and fix it, to no avail.
Additionally, when I view the Flash Player settings from my control panel, under Advanced Settings, it says that the plug in version is not installed. However, I'm unable to click on that or click on the settings that say "Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)".
What is going on? I really disllike running Chrome from the desktop and would like this to be fixed.

Chrome uses its own "proprietary" build of Flash Player, so you WON'T see any plugin in your control panel for it. You verify that it's enabled by typing "chrome://plugins" in your Chrome address bar. I'd provide a screenshot but I've REMOVED Chroime from EVERY system I have because it uses WAY TOO MUCH processor and it was launching by itself in the background on my Win 8 machine. I won't tolerate that out of ANY software.

Flash no longer working on webpage - why?

A charity organization I occasionally do photography for has
a bilingual website with a 'Flash only' intro page. But since
upgrading my browser's (IE and Firefox on XP) Flash plugin to v10 I
get just a blank white page. The code is there if I select View
Code, but the Flash does not load.
I succeeded in reinstalling the v9.47 Flash reader and their
site's now working again. But I'm concerned that many visitors
whose support they rely on will not be able to load their website
if they update their Flash viewer and are not computer savvy enough
to know what to do to fix it. The impression one gets is that the
website is no longer there.
Is there something I can tell them to do with their Flash
code that will resolve this? Is this a known issue for which a fix
is forthcoming? Folks designing websites that rely on Flash must be
concerned, no?
I don't know enough about Flash to offer them a suggestion on
how to fix whatever be wrong with their code, if that's what's
causing it. Any insight is appreciated.
The website is
http://www,procure.ca and it
provides information on the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and
eventual cure of prostate cancer.
Thanks,

Dear Chris:
Yes, turning off Protected Mode indeed solves the problem!
Specifically, we today (June 9, 2012) installed the new Adobe Flash v. 11.3.300.257 on several Windows 7 PC's, all running Firefox v. 14 (Beta), and none of the Firefox installations would confirm that the installation was performed successfully. For example, the Adobe Flast test/about site, https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about, would not work. And, likewise, YouTube videos and other Flash-encoded videos did not work either.
So, we tried your suggestion to disable the new Protected Mode, and it worked. That is, every single machine on which Flash did not work in Firefox now functions perfectly. So this conclusively demonstrates that there indeed is some kind of bug in the implementation of Protected Mode.
Can you please let me and the other Adobe users know when this is fixed. Thanks.
Also, could you likewise let us know the risks of turning of Protected Mode (although we really don't have any choice, as Flash will not work on Firefox with PM turned on).
Thank you. Much appreciated.
Kind regards,

Flash no longer working when updating a template page

Recently switched from GoLive over to DW CS3. I've purchased Total Training for DW CS3 to help me with the transition.
I am wanting to create a template page to use for the entire site so that if I need to make a change to the template, it updates my entire website. When I upload the page, the flash image loads fine. The problem I'm having is if I reopen the template.dwt page and make a change, when DW updates the pages that are linked to the template, the flash image in the pages no longer work.
Here are my steps I've taken:
1. Created a page called index.html
2. Made an editable region called "main content" using Insert>Template Objects>Editable Region
3. Created a folder called templates in the root directory
4. File>Save as Template and called it home.html (for testing so I don't mess up my working index.html page)
5. File>New>Page from Template and selected my template.dwt file
6. Added content to the page.
7. File>Save As company-history.html
8. Upload index.html, home.html and company-info.html to the server.
Everything works like it is supposed to.
9. Open template.dwt and make a change.
10. Save page and DW updates the home.html and company-info.html pages
11. Upload to server
12. Flash image on those two pages stop working
Here are the links to my pages
Index - Working properly
Home - (made from template) Flash not working
Company Info - Flash not working (made from template) Flash not working
Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

Oh, I see you did. So in the template file, make this -
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0','width','900','height','256','title','Main Flash Slideshow','src','../images/Main-Flash-Slideshow','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash','movie','../images/Main-Flash-Slideshow' ); //end AC code

Read like this -

Flash no longer works with YouTube

I updated Flash, Firefox, and Windows 7 on 12/10/14. Since that time I am no longer able to use Flash on YouTube. I get a black player and the message: "An error has occurred. Try again later." I'm using Firefox version 34.0.5 and Flash version 16.0.0.235. If I disable Flash the HTML5 player works. This is a real pain because I'd rather use the Flash player and several other sites I visit require Flash. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? I don't know if the problem is with Flash, YouTube, or Windows. Any help would be appreciated.

Please ask your question on a forum for the Flash Player

Firefox Mac: Flash no longer works after upgrading to latest version of Yosemite.

I'm running the latest version of Yosemite and with the recent upgrade, I can't get any video (Flash, YouTube, etc.) to run using Firefox. Works fine in Safari and Chrome. I did all of the usual permission repairs, reboots, Firefox resets, etc. Nothing seems to work. Any advice?

With a bit more digging on the net... I fixed it!
Check this crazy stuff out:
AS3Verbose=1 # Traces detailed information about SWF ByteCode structure and Runtime parsing of the bytecode
http://jpauclair.net/2010/02/10/mmcfg-treasure/
In mm.cfg is bad. Turn it off, everything's happy. Some add-in must've turned it on for me.

Flash no longer works in some browsers

Hi guys,
Unfortunatly flash is not my strong point so i have no idea how to best diagnose this and thus need some help. we have a flash app on our site http://www.ecorepay.cc/epg/ it all used to work fine. Then in stoped
working in firefox. Then IE. Now it only works in older firefox versions or Safari. Any one have any ideas on whats happen in browser updates that has stoped our flash from working/loading etc?
Thanks for your time in advance. Any help appreciated.
Regards
Martin

That works better ("https" matters) That opens a page where some Flash file is attempting to load something, seemingly failing or just taking longer than I care to wait for it to load.
For what I can see of the html embedding code, the file is using the AC_RunActiveContent.js approach, however I do not see where you tie in the file in the code... There should be a line somewhere that ties it in in the head section, something like...
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
I can suggest two things...
1) Republish the html page in Flash so that it creates the proper embedding code and be sure to have the
AC_RunActiveContent.js file planted on the server and properly targeted in the line that resembles what I show above (resembles, not necessarily identical since there might not be a Scripts folder).
2) Instea dof that embedding approach try the latest in Flash embedding approaches and use swfobject.js. You can find it here... http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/ including instructions on how to implement it.
Beyond those, as I said, I arrived at a page that appears to be trying to load something, but isn't getting there. It is possible that whatever file it is trying to load is not where it needs to be or there is some other path/targeting error occuring.

Why does flash no longer work in viewing SnagFilms or Hulu under Safari Browser but still works for Netflix. And, where can I receive directions on how to install the PPAPI Plug In for Flash Player for Maverick 10.9.4.

Until recently, I was able to watch both SnagFilms and Hulu within the Safari Browser successfully. In both movie sites, I no longer get video and am asked to download Adobe Flash Player (which I already have 14.0.0.125) but my system indicates that Plug-In PPADI has not been installed? Where to go to find this correct download? When consulting with SnagFilms and Hulu, it was recommended that I download and watch in the Chrome Browser, which is successful. However, I don't like the idea that I must run a second browser to do stuff on my Mac. I don't have any issues with watching films under Safari within Netflix. I am so confused. What about the security issues with respect to running google products--do I need to be concerned if this is the only method for accessing my movie sites.

The problem is that your Flash Player is not current. Check this to see what the current version is (vs what you have) and here to get the latest version. There is supposed to be a major security issue in the version you've got so Apple is blocking its use. In any case, don't get Flash Player from anywhere except Adobe.
