Flash not working any browser

I am at a complete loss, flash isn't working on any browser, Mozilla, Opera, IE, SeaMonkey or Chrome.  I uninstalled it and then reinstalled, yet, nothing works.
Thoughts??  Thanks in advance for any help.  Using Windows & Home Premium

When you go here, do you see the animated ball?

If not, please try the following:
1.) Uninstall using the uninstaller, as described here here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
2.) Reboot
3.) Download and install Flash Player from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
What antivirus/antimalware stuff do you have installed, if any?

  • Some browser links not working - any browser, but just on my mac

    I have a strange issue. Over the last while certain page links on browser pages (which seem to be Java script links) won't work in any of my 5 browsers. If I put the same page in to any of my laptop's or my wife's browsers, the links work fine.
    For example, I just tried to order some stuff via Staples, and whenever I tried to go to the next screen via a button, nothing happened. Even if I switched User Agents in Safari or Firefox, the "next" button didn't work. Same in Chrome, Camino, Flock and Opera on the same pages. I have noticed lots of drop down menus are not working properly either on many sites.
    I figure some bit of OS code must be either blocking or misreading the instruction, but what?
    Any ideas? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

    errmm... i'm not sure why you are fiddling with java and system extensions...
    java has nothing to do with javascript despite the name (you can blame sun for that) the javascript engine is an integral part of the browser not a separate extension.
    Java on the other hand is an entirely separate entity and language that is independent of any one browser and is installed on the OS.
    Javascript is commonly used in webpages (all most all these days) where as java is hardly used at all and is usually confined to little "applets" that run separately from the rest of the page.
    If you suspect that it is something to do with your settings/preferences in your library then the easiest way to find out is by creating a new User account (go to system preferences> users> and add a user.) Then log into that account and try the browsers in there.
    If you really think that it has something to do with system extensions then you can disable them by moving them out of the extensions directory (/System/Library/Extensions/) However i must stress that unless you know what you are doing and know what the extension does that you are moving to not do so... you can easily render your system unbootable if you move the wrong extension... unless you have installed a 3rd party system extension there shouldn't be anything in that directory that isn't meant to be there (this is a very different system from OS 9).
    However there are internet plugins that may be interfering with your browsers, you can find these in /Library/Internet Plugins/ you can disable these by moving them also... the defaults are various flash, java, shockwave, quartz and quicktime files.

  • Button not working in browser

    I am coding a video player in Netbeans 6.8. just find two problems:
    1. the browser button not working in browser when I run the project from Netbeans under "run in browser" mode. however under "standard execution" mode, everything is fine.
    2. can not run the jar file in the project's dist directory directly. in other word, I can not run the jar file outside of Netbeans.

    thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
    maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

  • Flash not working in Safari 5

    Flash has been buggy for me in Safari 5, ever since I updated the Flash player last week to "10.1 r53". Either Flash files don't play at all, or just the audio plays without video.
    Per the instructions on these boards, I have:
    1. reset Safari
    2. uninstalled flash player
    3. installed the flash player
    4. repaired permissions
    5. restarted
    The issue is still there. Firefox plays Flash files, YouTube, etc. just fine. Safari does not.
    I'm running SL 10.6.4, latest Software Updates.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I created a new account. Flash works in the new account. That's cool, but I really don't want to re-locate all my prefs, etc., just for a buggy plugin.
    So, I next...
    1. grabbed the Safari plist from the new account
    2. logged out of the new account
    3. logged into the old account (where Flash does not work)
    4. moved the old account's com.apple.safari plist file out of the Preferences folder
    5. moved the clean Safari plist file (from the new account) into the Preferences folder
    6. reset and restarted Safari
    7. Flash worked...for about two minutes. I tested on YouTube, Vimeo and Google Analytics. Back to Flash not working in Safari.
    I then tried repeating the earlier steps.
    1. reset Safari
    2. uninstall flash player
    3. install flash player
    4. repaired permissions
    5. restarted
    Still doesn't work.
    Just one other thing to note: whenever I pull up a web page with Flash, I get a "file not found" error in Safari's activity monitor (link is below)...could this be an error with Adobe's website rather than a Safari-permission thing?

    Flash is totally unrelated to Java, so what you're saying is that certain plugins are not working under Safari of which one just happens to be Java. You're the second one I see make mention of that, but the fact remains that you'd need to ask Apple what is going on with their browser.

  • Search in saved preview .pdf files not working any more

    When I download a .pdf file from the internet and open it in preview, the search command works ok. When this same file is saved to disk and opened again, search is not working any more. Is this a bug, or my fault. Regards Rolf

    Hi,
    I hope this helps...
    A while back we have more than one browser running on our PC (IE, Firefox, Chrome) and we messed by how Acrobat views documents over the web.
    I think that this has some relevance here, as around this time LC also started falling over previewing forms.
    Now if we open LC and Acrobat is not running, the "Preview PDF" is not present or accessible. So now we fire up Acrobat before we open a form in LC Designer and the preview tab is there and functioning.
    Not much of a workaround; but I am hoping that someone will have a better one!!!
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • E72 - Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V not working in browser

    yesterday i updated my nokia e72 mobile to latest firmware 31 , after that Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and Ctrl+A shortcut keys are not working in browser. which have made me feel as bad as typing the same text again and again (usfel in blogging or web messaging).
    ALthough these shortcut keys are working in notes and sms application, but not in browser and Quick office applications (word, ecxel etc).
    Can some one tell , how to fix it. or do i need to wait for next firware update. firmware 31 was released on 31 of march 2010. and today is 26th of May. almost two months have passed, and nokia has not yet released patch for this bug ....
    Nokia, how long i need to wait ?, for this bug fix release.

    (Had to edit because didn't read previous post clearly.)
    I originally thought this was a problem of Quick office 6.2.217 Nokia_S603.2. I think it is a Nokia firmware problem as the previous post had stated.

    Hi, Adobe Acrobat Pro is not opening any more and giving the error "Licence is not working any more". I have a CS4 on Mac OS X 10.5.8. I tried all the suggestions in the Help Forum. What remains is to install CS4 again. Is there any risk doing that? Or is there any other option. Best, Felix

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help.

    Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help. BTW the same 'Save As' dialog in other applications still allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory.

    cor-el,
    I kept forgetting and procrastinating about following your instructions, since I have internet access only for limited amounts of time and usually I am busy with important tasks when I am.
    Out of the blue, the problem corrected itself (the Save As box started to open full screen, then shrunk down to a normal size and the edges can now be dragged to a custom size).
    Even the copy and paste problem in the filenaming area seems to have been less troublesome lately even though there have been no updates to Firefox in a few weeks.
    Even though I marked the solution as not helpful, the problem has in fact been resolved. I will save the solution instructions in case the issue returns.

  • Flash not working in photo booth.

    The flash in photo booth on my iMac is not working.  When I take a pic, the screen flashes but the pic is still dark.  Was working fine yesterday.  I did install the latest osx today.  That's the only changes since then.

    In case anyone is interested in your screen flash not working in the Yosemite or Maverick photo booth application, I finally called Apple today and he kept insisting it was working on his - I asked him to take a pic with the screen flash enabled and then disable it and he said it came out the same. And rationalized that it was because he was in a well lit room. I kept telling him in my old photo booth from system 10.6.8 that my face was lit up and my husband had reflections from his glasses so we went from him wanting me to reinstall my software (I refused since both computers were having the same problem - one using Yosemite and the other using Maverick)  to him finally going into HIS partitioned disk that has system 10.6.8 on it to discover that the flash there reflected off HIS glasses too. Bottom line is he admitted there has to be some flaw that prevented the photo booth flash from working for Maverick and Yosemite. Whew, finally validation!
