Flash player doesn't work on firefox

Flash player 10.1 won't install on firefox, I can get it to work on IE but everytime i try to install it on firefox it says insufficient permission, which im assuming means i need to be admin, which i am. I've tried uninstalling and installing but nothing works, I've evening tried deleting the NPSWF32.dll file, but it says i need admin, which again i am, so any help would be awesome.

Hi A, thanks. Since you have Uninstalled and Installed we don't know what is Installed now. Is Flash Player still working properly in Internet Explorer?
By the way, what version of IE are you using?
You said you are using the Administrator account, so continue doing that for the Install.
Using Firefox do the following:
Download the Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Close All browsers, you only want to be looking at your Desktop. RUN the Installer and when finished, Restart your Computer.
Using FF(Firefox) go here to test:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Then, still using FF, find the plug-in SWF vs 10.1.53.64 and make sure it is Enabled.
Post back your results or if you have any questions.

Flash player doesn't work on firefox even when reinstalling

The flash player is not working on many sites and this issue is only happening on firefox. Every time I go to youtube, I would have to click play and nothing but an error shows up. I have to use chrome to use youtube. I already deleted firefox and reinstalled firefox but nothing works even when I reinstalled flash player.

hello, please have a look at [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]] & see if this article covers your problem

Flash player doesn t work with firefox

hey every body
after a lot of tries ,the version 11.8.800.168 doesn t work properly
a good down load ,good installation without error message but youtube doesn t detect the plug in ?
i check and it s installed :just a remark :the plug in weights about 6 mo installed and i downloaded 16mo ?
and if i try with IE9 to compare:surprise the video is good but no sound
perhaps a good idea will arrive ,but it s not very easy
bye

Thanks for the assistance Chris. I tried the 11.7 option without success. I downloaded the 11.7 file, I closed all browsers, used the flashplayer uninstaller, restarted the CPU, installed the 11.7 (with auto updates disabled). Restarted Firefox, tested a Flickr video, same "no-play" results.
However, after doing the same thing and downloading the Archive version http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.3.183.75_archive.z ip I was able to play the Flickr videos! WooHoo.
I completed the update process to the latest version, and now the videos play properly with the latest version!
Not sure what the bad actor was, the 11.7 version did not fix it, but the older 10.3 version did!
Thanks to all for the assistance with this pain in the arse issue.

Adobe flash player doesn't work correctly. firefox 4 and 5.

pictures doesn't look right

You'll have to contact voxnow.de and ask them to not black list that version of Flash Player. It's their website that is requiring you to upgrade (which as I'm sure your aware of isn't possible to do with your operating system version.)

Sound doesn't work(only in firefox). why? sound doesn't work(only in firefox). why? (adobe flash player doesn't work even thought it's installed)

sound doesn't work (only in firefox). adobe flash player doesn't work correctly, thought it's installed. can't solve the problem. i need Sound.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== don't know

What does the Adobe test page say?
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Flash Player doesn't work, either IE or Firefox.

Flash Player doesn't work, on either IE or Firefox. Vista 32 bit, Firefox 10.0.2, Shockwave Flash 11.1.102.62. Reloaded Firefox and Flash. I get the spinning circle, but video never starts on IE or FF. Settings manager works. I'm at a loss. Update - actually it works on most video now, except Fox Sports or ESPN, either IE of FF.

After browsing the forums a bit, it would appear that this has been an ongoing problem for more than a month and the only 'inquiry' on the part of Adobe that I can find is one gentleman consistently asking people to report through the adobe bug/crash report process
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/953796
While I'm certain there have been many, many reports offered up, we have yet to see any solutions from the company, and admissions that there are issues with this product, or any ETA on expecting a reliable, stable version of Flash.
It would be very nice to have some feedback formally from the company. Many users (including myself) are experiencing frequent BSOD, having to spend hours uninstalling, reinstalling and aimlessly troubleshooting our computers all because of this add-in.
I recently updated every single hardware driver from my manufacturer, flashed my BIOS, troubleshot memory through self-diagnostics for days, and i still have issues related to Flash. I've tried the quick fixes suggested by (not sure if he's an Adobe official voice) user 'Chris' to no avail.
Certainly I could offer my dump file, by what good will that do me? Adobe, you certainly have enough crash reports to make SOME progress, please offer us up something, even if it's just to update us on any progress or research? All we know is you want information from us, while we still have nothing from you

Flash Player doesn't work after update

I'm using windows 7 with Firefox browser. I installed an update and now Flash Player doesn't work.
I've tried re-installing but it still doesn't work.
Can you help please.

Please ask your question on a forum for the Flash Player

The latest version of Adobe Flash Player doesn't work on my Mac

The latest version of Adobe Flash Player doesn't work on my Mac?
What is the solution?

Download and install a version compatible to whatever cat flavor you have on the computer.

Maybe Flash 11 is too big and you need to stay on Flash 10.3

After update flash player doesn't work most of the time

Hi Folks!
Windows XP
IE 6
About 2 weeks ago I installed a flash player security update and ever since then flash player doesn't work most of the time. On most websites with embeded video all I see is an empty placeholder where the video is supposed to be.
If I go to a site like Youtube all is fine. However, if I go to a site that has embeded a Youtube video all I see is the empty placeholder where the video is supposed to be.
Some folks have recommended I uninstall and download and reinstall. The problem with this is that there isn't *anything* related to Abobe flash player in Add/Remove programs.
Not sure what to do about this (read: I'm totally lost!).
Here's a screencap of the empty placeholder:
http://i27.tinypic.com/2wrdttf.jpg

The standard warranty is for 12 months from the date of purchase, unless you bough AppleCare which would have extended it to 2 years.
If it's out of warranty, then you pay for repairs, and it's expensive. There are 3rd party repairers who are cheaper.
Did you try these?
The Five Rs.
As the previous poster said, it's more than likely a hardware issue, but there's no harm in trying the software fixes before you decide it needs repair.

Macbook air adoble flash player doesn't work after installation

macbook air adobe flash player doesn't work after installation

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 6
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 7
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 8
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

The flash player doesn't work on my IE9

I have a windows 7 - 64 bit operating system. The flash player doesn’t work on my IE9 and it does work on Google Chrome. I have tried uninstalling the flash player and re installing the player. The download file doesn’t download when I try downloading through IE9and the file fails to initialize when I download the flash player for IE9 through google chrome. My antivirus software McAfee is not working because of the flash player and other softwares like yahoo messenger . Please help.

Assuming you've checked to make sure that Shockwave Flash is enabled in IE's addons manager and you do not have ActiveX filtering enabled, Could you check to see if you have the following Windows update installed?
KB2670838 – Platform Update for Windows 7 x64
If so, please uninstall it and try Flash Player out again.
Thanks,
Chris

Adobe flash player does not work on Firefox, but does on Wind Exp

I have reinstalled Adobe Flash Player many times and also reinstalled Firefox, but flash player does not work. Every tim I try to play something it tells me to install the latest version of flash player. Flash player works fine on on Windows Explorer

IE uses a different version of Flash (ActiveX) than other browsers use, you need to install the Plugin version of Flash.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

Adobe 10.2 flash player doesn't work on some site with diff browsers

WTF! I've been through every forum about new adobe flash player it doesnt work on some site i.e facebook, ustream, fox news, dailymotion and cartoon network...Nobody, not even adobe has a real solution to this problem! Some site stream good other don't at all. All I get is a blue box in the display sometimes it loads, but doesn't play the video or games. Updated Java and SWF and by the way this a brand new computer fresh out the box WIN7 64 worked before why not now! I've reinstall and uninstall, checked active X java scripting, and global settings and so on, but nothing seems to work. WHY? Global settings doesn't work for some unknown reason can't enable some of the settings. Everything work fine on my PC before the update, so go figure adobe. No! browser works with the new flash player properly. Fire, IE, Safari, and Opera none of these browser work with the flash player like it should! HELP!!! "I see why apple doesnt wont to have anything to do with adobe flash."

I don't understand - in your post you mention "new Flash Player" several times, but in the subject you mention 10.2...?
What is the exact FP version you have?
For your blue box problem, have you tried to disable Hardware Acceleration?

Flash player doesn't work on some websites

Hi,
For some reason, video stays black on some websites, some other websites like youtube work. I applied the permissions fix that I found which worked at first but now the problem is back and this fix doesn't work anymore.
I tried everything from fresh install to using older version, nothing works.
I don't know what else to do.
Thanks

Sorry guys by relive this thread but i'm out of ammo to solve this problem.
I have this set for chrome plugin

For some reason flash player doesn't load the swf file with Shockwave Flash 11.4 r402 enabled, only the Shockwave Flash 13.0 r0 works.
Since the swf file was build to work fine with 10.2 from flash player version(build on flash builder 4.5), i really don't know what is happening
Hope some *great* solution for this.
