Cant get Flashplayer to work with firefox

There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash player; one for IE (ActiveX) and one for most other browsers including Firefox (Plugin). You do not appear to have Flash installed for Firefox (Plugin) on the system used to report your question (click "More system details" to the right of your original question, "Shockwave Flash" is not listed). You can check in your Firefox Add-ons > Plugins to see if "Shockwave Flash" is listed but disabled. When updating Flash on a Windows system with IE installed, you should always update both.
Download (for your OS and browsers), save, close all browsers, run the installers that you just downloaded from the following page:

Flash Player 10 incompatible with Firefox/Chrome

I am seeing this issue listed in forums all over the net, yet not here. (May just be that I'm sick of looking now.) Plain and simple: Something in the Adobe Flash Player causes the browsers, and in most cases the computer, to lock up. On this forum, I am seeing the problem listed repeatedly with IE8. 8 is, thus far, the only browser I am not getting the freeze up with. This happens on both Vista and Windows 7. I have both. I am currently using Firefox 3.6.3. I have both AMD and Intel based systems. There is a lot of blaming of the sites requiring flash, or the 64 bit OS. It is a problem in this program. Maybe it's trying to take over too many resources, or maybe it is exhibiting virus behaviors blocked by the UAC. In either case, it is FP10. If Adobe cannot/does not support 64 bit OS, then Adobe has a problem. You want to stay in the lead of technology, not the backend. So FIX IT.
I'm sick of messing with it. Your steps and "fixes" don't work. It's all through here. Identify the code problems and straighten them out. Quit pointing the blame. Everything about this company is becoming shoddy. Remember what happened to HP in the 90's when they went to trading on their name only? How about Dell? How about the numerous software companies bought up, some by Adobe? This worked when it was Macromedia. So man up and fix it instead of dodging.

What's (likely) happening is that the HTML wrapper around the .swf isn't behaving... which causes Flash Player version detection to fail. Hit this test page at youtube - you should see an embedded movie with Flash Player version information.
http://www.youtube.com/swf_test.html
You may find success by following the instructions in this tech-note for a complete uninstall... then re-install the latest FP.

Flash player lags bad with Firefox but not with google chrome,what is the problem ?

Every time i try to play any game using flash player with Firefox i have a lot of lag time. I have to stop playing and wait for things to catch up to play to play any more,I do not have this problem with google chrome playing the same games.I have updated all add ons and plugins.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a month ago

Everyone can blame flash player if they want, but the truth is for me I went from an earlier version that had plugin container which created lag for me. I disabled the plugin container in about:config settings, and firefox worked fine. Plugin container screwed up any videos i tried to watch on the internet by freezing, lagging, and crashing firefox. I was fine after I disabled plugin container, but then eventually some time later down the road I received a warning that i would soon be forced to update my mozilla so I eventually/reluctantly gave in and complied. At this point the same problems started again!!! I disabled plugin container again and it did help a bit right away. But this version 12.0 even with plugin container disabled with just a few tabs open I receive choppy video (like a snapshot of the video at 3 seconds in, and then another snap at 6 seconds in) I'm only seeing snapshots of the video like every 3 seconds while the audio continues on fine. That"s how bad the lag is. This is horrible performance for a browser. If I try to load a video while one is already playing, just that little bit of stress (2 youtube videos open at once) is all it takes to crash this poor performing version of firefox. I mean I can't even close the tabs after these situations and the audio sometime runs after closing for me as well. These problems did not start until the version changes of firefox and the addition of plugin container, not flash player. I have been a loyal mozilla fan, but my patients is wearing so so thin with the performance of this browser at the moment. Unfortunately I just realized for the first time ever I actually have to (against my will) install another browser just to watch videos. How sad is that? Considering watching videos is one of the main uses of a browser, I consider this version a failure. How could I not??? I guess I have no choice but to Chrome it up. I hope a fix for this problem can be found soon for I miss the great performing days of this previously top performing browser. Fingers Crossed!!!

Why does my flash player always crash with Firefox?

Flash player always crashes and slows my browsing. Firefox is updated and so is flash player yet never works.

You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
*check for updates for your graphics drive drivers<br>https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Flash player stop to work with Firefox

Ok it’s just killing me!! Flash player stop to work
with Firefox
All my web site users including me have this problem and I
guess all the millions of mozilla users
When you press play it’s not working or it’s no
sound
What solve the problem is to download oldest Flash-Player
Please fix it as fast as you can.
Thanks.

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.

A few of my pages don't work with Firefox nor Chrome. How do I fix this?

I created my website from scratch (enjoyaquatics.com) but unfortunately a few of my pages don't work with Firefox nor Chrome. How do I fix this?
Everything looks and works GREAT on Safari but not Firefox, Chrome, nor Internet Explorer.

The pages look fine in FF and Chrome on my Mac. Didn't check with Win XP.
If you use MSIE on a Mac, know that it became obsolete in 2003.
I noticed what I call wobbly text on your pages. Here's the solution :

Laptop Mouse touchpad doesn't work with Firefox 4

Previously in Firefox 3, I could use the touchpad on my laptop to middle click, and scroll. Now it won't work with Firefox 4. When I try to use the scroll feature it registers the mouse as scrolling, but the page doesn't move at all in Firefox. When I try to open a link in a new tab using middle click it shows the auto scroll but even then the orientation is wrong as well. When trying to close a tab using the middle click it shows the same left to right auto scroll instead. It works fine with a normal mouse, but with a touchpad it doesn't work at all. I have also tried using drivers to fix the problem, but that was not the issue.

well, if you stick to firefox 4, then i'd say, well, babylon in my memories, it offers a online prompt method of translation, supporting tens of languages, similar to google translate webpages, the url is http://translation.babylon.com/ you can keep firefox 3.x and 4.0 in the same time in your windows. firefox 3.x to 4.0 update is not compulsory, so use the one you feel good with.

Does McAfee siteadvisor work with Firefox - if not, why not?

does McAfee siteadvisor work with Firefox - if not, why not? Is there a way to make it work?

No, it is blocklisted by Mozilla due to that Site Advisor extension being the #2 cause of crashing the Firefox 5.0 betas. McAfee was notified of the problem long before that extension was added to the blocklist. Now it is up to them to fix it. <br /> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/
I have read that McAfee is working on a re-written version that is projected to be available in the 3rd week of July.

Flash Player 11.3.300.262 Not working with Firefox. I think I found the problem.

*Flash Player 11.3.300.262 is not working with Firefox. I think I found the problem.*
Millions of people got off work & turned on there computers recently to discover that Firefox is not playing any videos or flash content. Just like me, millions of people are randomly searching the internet in a futile & frustrating attempt at answers. Unfortunately, many of those people will simply stop using firefox & deem it a glitchy, unreliable browser.
This happened to me a couple days ago. I started up my computer & got a pop-up from Adobe saying that I need to update my flash player to 11.3.300.262. I've always thought of adobe as being a reliable software company, so I clicked on it with confidence that things will be working even smoother. To my horror, I relalized that right after the update, my main browser, firefox was destroyed. Then I went on the frustrating process of uninstalling, re-installing, running virus scan, researching the internet like a lost child. I said to myself, "that's why I hate updating stuff, because updates always seem to change stuff you don't want it to change & there always seems to be a problem with the updates." I usualy update software months after it releases, because microsoft & all the other software companies always seem not to test there stuff properly before releasing them. Then we have to look at a glitchy computer until the next update fixes it. Well, that is my rant. Now let me discuss the problem I found.
Problem:
What I did was, go into my firefox extentions menu & I disabled the 11.3.300.262 & I re-enabled the previous flash player. After that, everything worked perfect again. Then a today (a week later), I turned on my computer & my firefox wasn't playing any videos or flash content again. I went into my firefox extenions menu again, & I discovered that my old flash player had been deleted, & this new glitchy 11.3.300.262 had been enabled. Why did adobe feel the need to into my computer & automaticly delete & update my flash player. Now it doesn't work. THIS IS REALY FRUSTRATING!
The Issue I discovered:
"RealPlayer" is the most popular video program & it is installed on millions of computers. For some strange reason Firefox does not want its users to use Real Player. Specifically the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin 15.0.2. I also discovered that my Browser Record Plugin 15.0.2 was automatically disabled when the Adobe 11.3.300.262 was automatically updated also.
- Maybe this could be because of some copyright conspiracy to keep people from downloading videos from the web.
- Maybe firefox wants people to use there download add-on instead of RealPlayers downloader.
I don't know what ther reason is. But what I do know is Nobody is going to delete there RealPlayer from there computer just to use FireFox. We can simply use Chrome or Internet explorer. I took the advise from Adobe & disabled the FireFox RealPlayer Extention. I also went into my RealPlayer preferences options, But there was no option to disable download recording from FireFox. BECAUSE I ALREADY DISABLED THE ADD-ON in FireFoxes menu.
Solution:
Step 1: Adobe needs to update all the computers with the previous flash player. That way we can choose to enable the previous flash player in our FireFox. or wait until a new update fixes the problem with firefox.
Step 2: Adobe & FireFox need to get together & go back to the drawing board. They need to create a update that actually works on computers that have Real Player installed on them. I don't care which company does the update. All I care about is if it works. Thank You.
Oh yea, Im running FireFox 13.0.1, Windows 7, HP computer, Real Player is up to date.

Hey Chris,
I was able to duplicate this issue on my Windows 7 laptop as follows:
     1) Completely uninstall FlashPlayer (using your tool) as well as Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Maintenance Service (used Windows 7 - uninstall from Control Panel). Please note that I checked the box that said "Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations" to ensure that Firefox was completely gone from my laptop.
     2) I then went out to the Firefox website and downloaded the "Firefox Setup 13.0.1.exe" app to my laptop. I ran this app to install Firefox.
     3) I then went to the following website http://www.ishmael.org.uk/karaoke02.php as I know that this URL uses Flash Player (obviously you can go to any URL that uses Flash Player - I'm just letting you know which one I used). I then clicked on the icon on this page to install Flash Player.
Once the install was completed, the URL stops responding and appears to be locked up (although it will occassionally hiccup and display portions of the page and then lock up again). You will eventually get a pop-up notice from Firefox that has the header "Warning: Unresponsive script" and says the following:
     A script on this page may be busy or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to to see of the script will complete. Script: chrome://browser/content/browser.js:6551
Selecting "Stop script" will get Firefox working until you hit another page that uses Flash Player.
To ensure that the above URL is not the culprit, I used one from your website http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html and had the same results.
Hope this info helps!
Jeff
NOTE: As a reminder, I do not have RealPlayer installed on my laptop (and never have had it installed)

Flash player doesnt work on safari, even with the last version 11.6

hello,
Since yesterday, my flash player doesnt work on safari (OS X10.8.2). I tried to update flash with the last version (11.6) from adobe website, but i still have the same probleme. Can you please help me ?
Thank you

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 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. 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.

Flash Player 13.0.0.206 not working with Firefox 28 or IE, using Windows 7 64 bit

Hi, I've been having problems with Flash Player all week, and I've tried everything I've found so far, including completely uninstalling and reinstalling Flash multiple times, reverting to previous versions of flash (Flash 11.7 or something similar) uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, checking for viruses and malware, updating my video drivers, disabling hardware acceleration, but for the life of me I cannot figure out what is wrong. Videos will only load momentarily before hanging and I eventually keep getting an "Unresponsive Plugin" error for Shockwave Flash on Firefox 28 despite having double checked for the most recent available version of the plugin. Internet Explorer also gives an "undefined" error when I try to access videos or Flash content as well, leading me to believe it's not just Firefox but a larger issue.
I am currently using Windows 7 64bit with Firefox 28.0, but the issue happens in the most revent version of Internet Explorer as well. Can anyone offer some help?
EDIT: I have updated to Firefox 29, however the issue still persists

Seeing similar behaviour, there was a suggestion to upgrade the video and audio drivers, but I'm at the latest version.
Your description is almost identical to my situation.

Flash not working with Firefox

I have a site built using Dreamweaver and FD24 extensions for the Flash elements.
http://www.amesis.co.uk/redcard/
Until yesterday everything was fine. Still ok with IE ver 8.0.6001 and both Vista and XP operating systems
Flash ver 10.0.45.2 installed
However my client cannot see any of the flash images in the header and on the leisure page gallery (just a white box). The front side panel works ok on the home page
He is using Firefox. again ok yesterday. He has tried to reinstall the latest version of flash and received installation successful message.
Using the same PC's he can see if switches to IE
Would appreciate any help in getting this sorted nad what advice I can give him. It is essential that the site works with Firefox so need to resolve.
Thanks in anticipation
Ken

Hi ken, If I understand your post, you are wanting help for the Firefox user. And he has installed Flash Player using the FF
browser.
The first thing would be to (using FF), go to plug-ins and find the SWF plug-in, made sure it is vs 10.0.45.2 and is enabled.
And be sure there is only one listing of the SWF. If there is another listing, it needs removed/deleted.
Also, he can go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash Find the Flash folder and post back all files listed there.
If he has installed Flash Player in IE, those files will be there also and the version numbers will be evident. However,
the files for FF will not be. The FF files are NPSWF32.dll and NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe. Right click on each and then click on
Properties to find the version numbers, which I need.
This is the best way to determine if the Flash Player files that are installed are correct and the FF plug-in is correct.
The IE equivalent to the FF plug-in is in the IE manage add ons and is listed as Shockwave Flash Object..ActiveX Control..
Flash10e.ocx and must be enabled also.
Please let me know if I have not understood your post.
Thanks,
