Flash Player 11 plugin failure on page load(32 bit, WinXP, FireFox 11)

Hello,
        New forum user here - however, I must ask: why is the Flash Player plugin failing whenever a Flash object is loaded?
Before you say anything, bear in mind that I HAVE checked the Adobe help files on "My Flash player plugin crashed" and so on, as well as the Mozilla plugin check. Many times over.
Here are the specific versions:
Windows XP Professional 32-bit
Firefox 11.0
Flash Player plugin 11.2.202.233
A few other things I've tried:
- Running on Safari, Chrome, IE 8, etc. Most of the time, the browser crashes.
- Downgrading to Flash Player plugin ver. 10.3. Nada, plugin still crashes.
(I'm using YouTube to test plugin functionality.)
Finally, I'd like to note that I've also tried reinstalling, uninstalling, deleting AppData folders, deleting Program Files files, etc. Still, nothing.
This problem only started to occur today, if I recall correctly.
If there's some sort of method to recover a crash report, please post and I'll be more than glad to produce a report.
Thanks,

Never mind, found a solution to the problem. Feel free to lock.

  • Flash Player 8 plugin problem, can get Flash content on Safari

    I've been trying to install the Flash Player 8 OSX plugin on my Mac but it's not installing, ie when the installation is success a Flash Player logo is supposed to appear on the Macromedia web page and this hasn't happened.
    I tested the Flash Player 8 plugin download on my PowerBook G4 and the installation was a success on my Safari Browser where I can view still view sites with Flash Plugins.
    MacBook Pro 1.83   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Flash Player comes pre-installed on the MacBook. You have just overwritten the Universal version with a PowerPC version that, as you are now seeing, just plain doesn't work.
    There is a thread that talks about replacing the files that you installed by mistake with the original Flash Player files. If you search I'm sure you will find it.

  • I recently installed Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin, and now can't play any videos from any website in Mozilla, but Google Chrome works.

    Cannot play any video from any website in Mozilla after installing Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin. However, I can play videos from Google Chrome and also from Internet Explorer. For example, when I'm trying to play a you tube video in Mozilla, a black screen comes up with following error message: "An error has occurred. Please try again later."
    (This is like the Wizard of Oz -- when the man comes to the little window in the door and says to Dorothy, "Come back tomorrow." )

    This may be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.

  • Adobe Flash Player 11 plugin not working right

    I have Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin, Widows Internet Explorer 8 and Microsoft Windows XP, version 5.1.2600.  Why is it not dowloading pictures?

    You might as well stop wasting your time. The problem seems to be centered around FireFox (since Adobe Flash seems to work fine with IE and Chrome).  After FireFox begin running Flash as a separate process, it no longer retains preset volume settings for Flash, instead, each new FireFox window resets it to max volume. As a result, several times I've had my ears blasted (this can lead to hearing loss and/or damaged audio equipment). This only happens with newer versions of Flash. Consequently, I no longer use the latest versions in FireFox. I'm thinking about totally dropping FireFox and moving completely to Chrome. Looks like neither Adobe or FireFox are gonna budge to fix the problem.

  • Adobe Flash Player 10 PlugIn

    Firefox 6.0.2
    Windows 7 64 bit
    I installed Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin today. When I go to Control Panel/Programs/Programs and Features it indicates that I have the new program as well as Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX. Should I delete Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX?
    Where can I find Flash Player 10 Plugin on my computer?
    Thank you.

    The ActiveX version of Flash Player is used for Internet Explorer.  Unless you really don't need it, I'd suggest keeping it installed.  You won't find Flash Player in your start menu, but the actual files can be found here:
    Windows 32 bit: C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
    Windows 64 bit: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash

  • Distribution MSI for Adobe Flash Player for Plugin Browser

    The MSI File provided for distributing Adobe Flash Player for Plugin based browsers (in this case Firefox) is not working when we test in our test environment.
    It is working with the Windows XP Clients in the test group however it does not work with the Windows 7 Client Machines.  Firefox prompts for a manual download of the adobe flash software. After the manual install of the Software flash player is working but there is a new item in the program catalog. Adobe Flash Player Plugin it's size is 6.00MB. Comparatively the size that is installed by the MSI is 16.xxMB and it doesnt work.
    What I have tested
    WSUS Install of MSI - Failed, Firefox prompts to install adobe flash
    Client Install of MSI - Failed, Firefox prompts to install adobe flash
    Intercept EXE from Temp Directory and then install after uninstalling MSI - Works
    The problem appears to be in the MSI, like I said before it is working for the Windows XP Clients.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Anand,
    If you have licensed Flash Player for distribution (which appears to be what you are doing), you should have received an email with the download links for the installers.  If you are distributing Flash Player without first licensing it for such, you must apply for a distribution license at Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe.  Once you do this, you will receive an email with the links to download Flash Player.
    Further information on licensing, and distributing Flash Player within your organization is available in the Adobe Flash Player Administration Guide for Flash Player | Adobe Developer Connection.

    Firefox 3.6.23 is experiencing constant freezing and rebooting issues with Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin, not sure if it is a conflict issue or not.
    Since the update there had been no reported issues till today when the blue screen came up on me, this issue prior to plug in 11 had occurred at least 6 times, this issue only happens on firefox.
    I do not wish to update since recent firefox browsers seem to have a lot of ongoing issues.

    Anyone able to help please?
    Thanks.

  • FLASH PLAYER MISSING PLUGIN PLEASE HELP!!

    Since the Last Safari Update,I've been constantly getting a missing plugin message whenever FlashPlayer was required.
    I have tried uninstaling/installing FlashPlayer from the adobe website. But still always asked to download the latest version.And later did disk permission repair/check, nothing worked. I even disabled som of the plugins i had read in the discussion that might cause some problems such as the java cocoa plugin, but flash player's plugin is still missing.
    PLEASE HELP!

    Latest version of Flash is 10.3.181.26
    It installs in Macintosh HD/Library/Internet plug-ins and is available to all browsers.
    Make sure you're getting the right one; there is  one for Firefox, Safari and Opera and a seperate one for Chrome.
    Best to install with all browsers closed (note - you have to open and authorise the installer - it doesn't install automatically on download).
    If a browser's open, quit and reopen it to enable the plug-in.
    Be wary of error messages claiming you don't have the right plug-in. Don't follow links from them, they're often used to redirect you to malware sites.
    And ensure JavaScript is enabled when trying to view Flash; it won't work without it.

  • Cs4 / win7 install stalls flash player 10 plugin--how to fix?

    I am transferring Creative Suite to a new computer, Win7. I have CS3 with a CS4 upgrade. The CS4 upgrade install window is stalling halfway thru, on 'currently installing flash player 10 plugin'. Any suggestions? Do I have to quit and uninstall everything so far, just retry the install, or is there some other workaround?

    Uninstall Flash Player separately from your Add or Remove Programs panel. it chokes, because there is already a newer version on your system and you need to get rid of it first. You may even go so far as to unistall everything Adobe and delete the caps.db as explained here.

  • McAfee installed with Adobe Flash Player 12 plugin update

    Why did McAfee Security Scan Plus install when I updated Adobe Flash Player 12 plugin?

    As I said in my first post, I not only saw this "no opt out" bundling myself, but I screencapped it and documented it.
    That was... wait for it... LAST JULY.
    If anyone had the intention of ending it, they would have by now.
    THIS is the reason I always update EVERYTHING (Windows, OS X, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS5.5 and CS6, Office, Roxio... you name it) manually.
    Microsoft keeps trying to push 8.1 and their %&#*'ing "Bing Desktop" with EVERY Windows Update, even though I've hidden both mutlitple times. You can't even update Java without the freakin' "Ask Toolbar" being pushed at you.
    I know I'm not going to change it, so I changed my process for updating stuff.

  • Flash Player 10 Not installing on Win 7 64 bit PC

    Flash Player 10 download goes through install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
    After that There is always  a Flash Player Install file on the PC.
    When I click on that it goes through the install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
    Have tried above install more than 6 different times. Also on my wife's new PC.
    Always the same bad result.
    These two new PC's are both on WIN 7 64 bit OS.

    I tried the suggested method of uninstall and then install.  Also the disable instructions for Norton AV.
    Still no success.  When I again check the list of programs in Control Panel for possible uninstall the Flash Player 10 has returned there.
    But the player does not play when needed for some videos on Facebook, etc.
    One thing I could not find to disable on Norton AV was "Smart Firewall."  It was not in my NAV 2011.
    Any other suggestions appreciated.

    Hi, I would try this method and see if it works better. There is a link for FF(Firefox) If you don't use FF, ignore that. Also before you begin this procedure, I need to know what Anti-Virus/Spyware programs you have Installed. Some will block the Install of Flash Player and that needs to be taken care of first.
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
    Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
    Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
    Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
    Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
    Run the Installer for IE, Run the Installer for FF(If needed/used) and when finished, Reboot.
    Then go to this test site and test each browser:
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    You may want to print these instructions to make it easier to follow. If you have any questions, let me know.

  • Flash builder 4 plugin for eclipse on win7 64-bit problams

    where can i find a version to download of flash builder 4 plugin for eclipse on win7 64-bit?

    Hi,
    I'm not an eclipse user but at the moment the recommended version of eclipse for the plugin is 3.4
    http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flash_Builder_4:Release_Notes
    The stand alone version of Flashbuilder works fine on Win7 X64 (FB is x32 not x64 both standalone and plugin)and I assume using the specified eclipse ide and FB plugin would be the same.
