Flash player 10 very slow to initialise

Hi , does somenone know why the flash player is so slow on my
computer on certain web sites since I upgraded to flash player 10
version ? ( i don't have any problem with the 9 version)
In fact, it takes easily 20-30 seconds to initialise and then
all is fine.
On certain website it's ok.
( and of course the site that I am developping is slow since
flash player 10)
thanks a lot!

This page tells you all you need to know about downgrading a package:

Edit: I would recommend the ARM method for finding an old binary file if you don't have it in your cache.

Flash player very slow only in FF

Firefox: 16.0.1
Flash player: 11.4
- Running in safemode
- Latest video drivers
When on a youtube video, I can move the mouse around the buttons and it will take about 3 seconds for the mouse to travel between the buttons. The same happens on the BBC News website.
All other flash videos seem to function correctly.
Watching youtube/BBC news in IE works fine. Currently, FF is unusable for these websites.
This also happens in safe mode.

since version 11.3 adobe ships its flash plugin with the protected mode for firefox - ie and chrome get supplied with different versions of the plugin:

Flash player 9 slow & choppy - is it Firefox?

Hello all,
Any sites with Flash Player 9 like ESPN play very choppily. This just started in the last couple of months. I have done these recent updates: Firefox 2.0.0.7, installed Cocktail (for maintenance and run it every week), and I did Aiport Software update 4.2. These are the only changes I have made to the computer. I will post in Adobe flash forum as soon as I figure out where that is. Checking there before; I didn't see a big thread on any problem like this.
thanks,
Al

Resetting my router resolved my issues but this isn't working for others...
I also re-installed Firefox and Flash Player but the router seemed to do it and I have no idea why.
Most flash videos for me like Comedy Central for ex. barely play ahead of the download so I have to pause the vid and let the download get ahead of it. Perhaps my computer is too slow.
Flash player forum has lots of help ideas to and there are techs trying to help.

Flash Player still slow on Linux

I've tried, with my hi-configuration pc, last beta flash
player amd64 version, on last Jaunty Ubuntu 9.04 with last nVidia
driver 180.37 and with
Direct rendering enabled... but still very slow (with HD
videos, worse with fullscreen mode) VS Windows Vista platform on
the same machine. I tried to uncheck and recheck "hardware
acceleration" on Flash Player 10 settings box without see any
difference (if don't work, why is present a box?).
With some player (mplayer/smplayer for example) I can see
without performance problems Full-HD videos... but with Flash
Player, HDReady videos is "slow and choopy"...
Can I hope better performance on Linux for the future?
Thank you much and sorry for my english!
Intel Q6600 2.4GHz, Asus P5Q Deluxe, 4Gb DDR2, nVidia 8800 GT
AMP!,

I am using a very fast computer: Phenom quad-core 2.6GHz with an NVidia GeForce 8800GT. I notice a number of issues with flash 10 performance on this platform. For one, it's barely fast enough to play the Youtube HD video windows and not fast enough to play anything but traditional low def youtube FullScreen. The player doesn't thread at all so it relies soley on the clock speed of the machine. And as another poster said, the hardware acceleration box doesn't really seem to do anything.
To some degree HD video is going to be a CPU hog...but this performance is far worse than what flash gets on the same machine on windows. That is the first issue. The second issue is that the player really needs to be threaded. Sure, some systems have the power to decode high res x264 with a single core. But there is no point...it's like lifting heavy things with one finger just to show how strong you are. Linux supports threads and the vast majority of machines have multiple cores, so use them! To release a player with such an obvious deficiency is simply lazy programming and design.

Flash Player verrrry slow.

This problem has been going on for at least a month now, and I've asked numerous different places without fixing the problem so far.
Firefox asked me to update to the newest release before the 4.0 beta (I apologize, I can't remember the version). I went to Farmville after updating and noticed that it was very laggy and taking a long time for my mouse to respond to my clicks. After this, I have been having all sorts of problems with anything that uses Flash. In Tinychat, sometimes I'll be typing and the words will take a long time to appear after I've finished typing, they appear one letter at a time, slowly.
I also apologize because I can't remember everything I've done in the past month to fix this problem, because I've tried a lot of different things. The ones I've tried the most are:
Uninstalling Flash, restarting, reinstalling Flash.
Updating my drivers
Turning off hardware acceleration
Using a different browser (Safari, tried Internet Explorer but a lot of ActiveX stuff, I just didn't really bother. Problem persisted in Safari.)
And a bunch of combinations of the above. Needless to say, NOTHING has worked and the problem persists. I will add that yesterday I was at a friends house, and for whatever reason, without trying any of these methods, Farmville was back to normal again. I asked if it was the internet speed, but my friend said likely not. I just thought I'd add that in case it means anything.
Operating System: Windows 7 64 bit
Web Browser: Firefox 4.0beta 1 and 2(it says Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; rv:2.0b2) Gecko/20100720 Firefox/4.0b2 but I'm not sure if its 32 or 64 bit.) , Safari 5.0.1 (7533.17.8)
Flash Player Version: WIN 10,1,82,76 (Also says "Debug Player: No")
I hope that's enough info, but I'll be happy to supply more if asked.

Hi, Your thread doesn't close. On your drivers, you can contact Microsoft and the Manufacturer of your computer. They can help you with those. All of your drivers must be the correct ones and compatible with Microsoft. If your computer was made by Dell, then you go to the Dell site, etc.
I don't understand how you can think that Flash Player is the cause of your problems, because it is Installed correctly?
If your Flash Player was not Installed correctly, then I may agree with you, but I cannot agree that Flash Player is your problem. It doesn't even make sense.
Malware, viruses, too many add ons on a computer can cause slowness. There are other reasons but those are some.
Facebook, Farmville and their many games are known for problems.
If you do some searching on the Microsoft sites and forums about the slowness, you'll find more topics than you would have time to read:-) There are forums for every Windows edition, and every Internet Explorer version and anything made by Microsoft. There are many reasons that a computer can be slow, but I can't get into all of that. The Flash Forum is for Flash issues and problems that are related to that.
Perhaps another user will have some suggestions and will post to your thread.
Thanks,

Multiple crashes fixed by turning off hardware and Flash acceleration; very slow now. Takes five seconds to exit and still listed as a running process

A workaround was suggested by a member of the community to turn off both hardware and Flash acceleration. It worked fine (no crashes since), but runs very slowly. In particular, takes five seconds to exit and is often still listed as a running process. Very slow in connecting to Web pages, and very slow loading them because of the graphics. Very slow in loading video. I expected slower responses, but this is REALLY slow. I'm running 64-bit Windows 7 and an Nvidia GE Force 7800 graphics card with all the drivers updated and the plugins for Firefox mostly set on "ask to activate". Should I expect this much reduction in performance when the workaround I mentioned was put into place? If so, it's half a loaf at best. The only thing questionable is that I have two Youtube downloaders that I am trying, but I made the assumption that these were only applied when you downloaded something from Youtube.

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes": do not clear the Cookies
If you clear cookies then Firefox will also try to remove cookies created by plugins and that requires to start plugin-container processes that can slow down closing Firefox.
Instead let the cookies expire when Firefox is closed to make them session cookies.

Flash builder very slow

Hi all,
i'm using Adobe® Flash® Builder™® 4.7
with Windows 7 64bits, Core i5, 8Go RAM, SSD Samsung EVO PRO 256Go
After a few minutes Flash Builder becomes very slow. I can no longer enter a lineunless it freeze. The processor increases its frequency and everything returns tonormal after a few seconds if I did nothing...
I tried the methods provided in this link:
Flash Builder 4 Extremely slow under Windows 7 + Java
It is better but still not enough.
Thank you for your help in advance!
Best regards,

Hi,
Don't know if it's the same problem that I have but here's my problem and solution.
Every time I embed CFF fonts in code I get the same behaviour, ie:
[Embed(source="E:/Library/fonts/arial.ttf",
fontFamily="Arial_CFF",
fontWeight= "normal",
fontStyle= "normal",
mimeType="application/x-font",
embedAsCFF="true",
advancedAntiAliasing="true")]
private const Arial_Normal_CFF:Class;
So my solution is to place all embeds in a separate master package like InitMaster.as
Then I just extend the main class with it.
package {
     import InitMaster;
     public class Main extends InitMaster{
           public function Main() {
               //Do your other stuff here
The sluggishness (is this a word?) happens only when I open the InitMaster and do copy/paste.
Oh, and I have a dual cpu, 12 core (24HT) machine with SSD dics and 64GB RAM so it's not a hardware issue.
Hope this helps.

Flash export very slow

Hello!
I did some captures (242 slides) but when I export the slides
to a Flash file, and when I read this file, it is very slow! For
instance, I can't see the animations completely, and the mouse
movements are jerky.
I tried to watch the project on a more powerful computer, but
it's also very slow. Is my project too big? (98,8 Mo and 8,95 Mo
for the Flash file).
What can I do? I already resized it to 640x480. I still have
to add some audio commentaries and I fear it might slow the project
again. Thanks for your help!

Hello ameloche35,
Whilst it would be impossible for me analyze this without
taking look at your source Captivate 2 file, I would suggest that
you take a look at
Exporting
your Adobe Captivate 2 to Flash article. I have to be honest
and say that having 242 slides won't help. I would try looking for
any redundant or slides you can get rid of and see if that makes
any difference.
Tip: In Adobe Captivate 2 you can remove all unused items by
showing the Library panel, clicking on the select unused items
button on the Library tool bar and then clicking the delete button.
Regards,
Mark

Flash CS5 very slow to start up

My version of Flash CS5 has recently become very slow to start up, taking well over a minute sometimes.
It appears to stall for the longest time during a loading process called "...Loading Accelerators" (yes, very ironic).
Anyone have any idea what may be causing this behaviour?
Mac Pro running Mac OSX 10.6.7 (Snow Leopard) and 14Gb RAM.

Yes I am using Sophos!
Do Sophos have a feature/bug request page? This is one feature I can do without!
Thanks for your help.

Flash player 9 slow & choppy - is it Firefox? or QT?

Hello all,
Any sites with Flash Player 9 like ESPN play very choppily. This just started in the last couple of weeks. I have done these recent updates: Firefox 2.0.0.7, installed Cocktail (for maintenance and run it every week), and I did Aiport Software update 4.2.
Wondering if this is related to QT ?
Adobe has offered no help and says since it is free that's that. There are a bunch of people with same problem who have posted in Adobe Flash forum.
I'm at wits end.
I have: repaired permissions, uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player and reinstalled Firefox. The player installs fine but continually rebuffers every few seconds.
thanks,
Al
Same on either computer. Using 10.3.9 on ibook and 10.2.8 on imAc

"but I have repaired permissions a lot"
But did you do so directly from your System Install CD/DVD? Also, when using 3rd party utilities to fix directory damage it is best to use the CD rather than install the utility to avoid system interference & false readings.
You must use the versions that are compatible w/your OS system & keep the utilities updated to avoid damaging/harming/trashing your system.
The following are 3 of the Discussions favorites:
DiskWarrior
Highly recommended for *directory damage* repairs.
TechTool Pro
Multi-functional utility.
Drive Genius Multi-functional utility.
You will need to make your own decision on which to purchase. Read up on them on their websites because each does something a little different.
"I'm confused. Isn't "the newly installed Adobe software work its magic," = installing Adobe flash player? "
QT does not play flash files. It needs help (plug-ins) to play those type of files.
"How do you view say the ESPN vids with other players - I don't see how to do this?"
The players that I listed in my previous post in this thread play flash files in conjunction w/QT.

Why is Flash Player so slow?

I can't play HD videos from Youtube or Vimeo smoothly with Flash Player. (Flash 10.0.45.2, Windows XP SP3, latest ATI drivers)
The framerate is low and sometimes the sound and the video hangs. The problem is the same on Firefox 3.6 and Internet Explorer 8.
When I download the videos (with DownloadHelper) and open them with Media Player Classic and the FFDshow codec, it works perfectly. Unfortunately FFDshow can't be used for streaming, I always have to download the video first.
It seems that FFDshow is much faster than Flash Player.
Here's a vido who hangs on Flash Player but not with FFDshow : http://vimeo.com/8614771

Speed problems with Flash usually have nothing to do with the computer, but rather with Flash itself. Unfortunately, Flash has become ubiquitous on the internet, especially when it comes to video. Flash certainly has its uses, but video is not one of them. I can normally run 3 HD videos on my computer simultaneously with no problems. Play even one video (not even HD) on my computer with Flash, and it uses 100% of my CPU and is still very choppy.

Firefox + flash player 10 = slow

i had flash player 9 on firefox working perfectly
but actualy most of the apps need flash player 10
so i installed adobe flash player 10.0.42.34 for firefox
when i load a page with an animation or application

i have not idea what can be the problem because works fine on internet explorer
anyone knows how to solve this problem ?
by the way my currently firefox version is 3.6
please i need to fix this its frustrating and annoying

Not that I'm aware of. Can you create a new bug report at bugbase.adobe.com detailing the problem? Please include URLs so we can quickly test this out. Once the bug has been entered, please post back with the bug number or URL so that others affected can add comments and votes.

Flash Player runs slow on my Mac

When I browse flash websites on my Mac the flash movies run really slowly. I have the latest versions of flash player installed and I as a web designer I run Flash 8 on my machine.
Is there a setting that needs to be adjusted or could have been changed to affect the flash player on my machine?

Do you have the lastest beta?
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/public_beta/
If not, then try it, it may bring the speed up to your liking. If you do have the beta, then it may be what is causing the slow-down.

Flash player runs slow, jerky, performance problems (Apple OS 10.4.7)

I'm working on a Macintosh 1.35GHz PowerPC G4 Mac OSX version
10.4.7. I have Flash Player 9 installed on my machine. When I run
games on the Neopets web site (yes, I am an adult and yes the games
are actually fun) many of them are so jerky and slow that they are
completely unplayable. I have the same problem on another machine
(Dual 2Ghz processor, Mac OS 10.4.7). What's weird is that the
games used to run faster. I believe the slowdown occured in one of
my recent OS updates. I've tried this with both Safari and Firefox
and have the same problem with both.
In particular: Moon Rock Rampage (try picking up a piece or
killing a creature - both will grind to a halt), which can be seen
here:

Hi, LOL at my screen moniker. That's interesting that the FF beta has an Option for that. The only problem, is that I have heard that each browser must UNcheck the H.A. I'm sure you'll find out.
Hope that works at least for FF. Let me know if you have time.
I've been checking out Apple TV and Google TV. Just saved the links and some info, haven't had time to go further. I'd prefer Apple TV over Google tho.
I have a 55" HD Sony/Blu-ray Surround Sound Speakers, etc. I hooked up the VGA cable for Internet, and WOW on the Screen/Monitor!! Now I'm thinking about the iPhone 4 with VZ too, on their pre-order list for 2/3/11!
Hard to keep up with the Technology, moving faster today for some reason.
We are under the Snow & Ice warning, getting it now. Hope I don't lose power! If so, I'll be offline for sure.
If I find anything on that H.A. for IE, I'll let you know.
Thanks,
eidnolb
