Flash Player is the Most annoying thing ever

Cant get adobe to work. It keeps freezing my computer for about 60 seconds when i try to watch youtube or something. 'Adobe flash player has crashed do you want to send crash report?' comes up on the screen. Then low and behold it starts working maybe 2 days later then it stops working again in another 2 days! And its a constant cycle like this.Its simply wrecking my head. I've read all the forums and tried everything, nothing seems to be working, and the 'great' people at the help centre gave me great advise, they told me to go to the forums!!! Is that their job to redirect people to the forums? Easiet job ever, i want that job, muppets! Sorry i'm ranting now but its so frustrating!

Hi, you didn't mention any computer info, but you are probably using FF(Firefox)? No one is going to help you until you post your computer information, 64bit or 32bit, browsers Installed and version numbers.
Flash Player is not the problem, it's everything that a user has Installed into their browser most of the time that causes problems. Or they don't have Flash Player Installed correctly and a hundred other reasons:-)
Thanks,

  • Spell check is the most annoying thing ever!

    I have seriously come close to hurling this phone at the wall...!
    because of the autocorrect spell check BS feature...
    when is apple going to give me the ability to turn it off?
    I ABSOLUTELY HATE A DEVICE THAT TRIES TO THINK FOR ME
    IF I SPEEL SOMETHING WORGN - THAT IS THE WAY I WANT IT!

    I'd like to see them improve the "suggestions" (just hire someone from blackberry for this, my (work) BB curve is light years better). iOS almost never gets it right.
    I think that would make the fact that it is a 'click-to-deny' system so much more tolerable. I get so frustrated when it wants to correct a word I'm spelling the way I intended to, to some ridiculous word. Other times my word is only wrong by one letter and the correct word isn't even a suggestion.
    Spellcheck/autocorrect and notifications are easily the worst two features of iOS.

  • Firefox Sync is the most infuriating thing ever, how has it lasted this long like this?

    I'm sorry if this comes across as more of a rant than a query, but I am absolutely disgusted with how incredibly difficult it is to get Firefox Sync working properly (or perhaps how easy it is to break it).
    I opened a previous support thread @ https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/983868 but I was unable to get any advice that seemed to change anything.
    I have tried 2-3 more times on the latest Firefox (27 I believe) with new profiles, clearing my sync data, and every possible combination inbetween, and I can never get my devices to sync reliably past, even the "First sync" progress bar fails while adding devices #2, 3, etc.
    I got so desperate that I decided to try Nightly's new Sync (Firefox 30), hoping that things would have improved without the need for a Sync key (since I was confusingly getting sync key errors, despite entering it manually). Low and behold it STILL does the same thing, except that now I'm provided with an even more transparent service. I am unable to view my data quota, and Firefox doesn't even ask me for my master password now when I hit sync. That, and it's STILL complaining about the lack of a recovery key, when there is no such thing as a recovery key anymore, what the heck?!
    In the course of a few hours I have created dozens of error logs, and this is all by trying to use just 1 Desktop installation and 1 mobile installation. I have probably approached burning over 20 hours trying to get Firefox Sync to work, and it's apparent that the feature is just flat out broken.
    Even with all of the errors, some things sync properly like Tabs and occasionally preferences, but other things like history, bookmarks, and add-ons never work after the initial sync (or even during the initial sync). It seems though that the further away I get from the initial sync point, the less reliably these features work.
    This may fall on deaf ears, but I thought I'd reach out for help one last time to see if anyone can help, or perhaps point me to a place where I can receive more technical support. If anyone is able to help, it would be greatly appreciated. My logs can be found here
    Firefox 27: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4KtJAZ-pKFqZkMyZ3R5MTVRWFE&usp=drive_web
    Firefox 30: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4KtJAZ-pKFqWXFtb3Y2ZWxiQ1U&usp=drive_web

    I'm not exactly sure if that's a statement or a question, but it doesn't really pertain to my predicament.
    I created an entirely new Sync account with brand new Nightly profiles, the only thing I brought over was my places.sqlite file, as I could not transport my history via any other means (passwords, bookmarks, add-ons, etc I all did via other methods).
    The initial sync usually works, but after that things just don't seem to work correctly.
    I also ran into another problem in that I cannot delete my sync data via
    * https://account.services.mozilla.com/
    I also tried deleting the account, which kind of seemed to work as I was no longer able to log in via the above website; however when I tried to create a new Sync account with the same e-mail address, it said an account already existed. I tried logging in to my deleted Sync account via Nightly, and it logged in as if it was never deleted.

  • Sleep Light Most Annoying thing ever.

    I was wondering if t here is a way to turn off the sleep light or if Apple could programm a way in the future to turn off this sleep light. I have my mac in my bedroom and cannot turn it against the wall or throw something over it. I have taped stuff over the light but this is sooooo ugly. I like to have a nice bedroom with my beautiful apple computer, not some taped up one. The other thing that drives me crazy is the Aiport Extreme base station lights. Whoever thought of these flashing lights needs to change it.

    You do know that you can change the light behaviour of the AirPort Express station with the AirPort Admin Utility under "Base Station options", do you? Set it to constantly on, and it will be less annoying.
    What exact Model is your iMac G5? Maybe you can install the ALS firmware Update to get a turned down light during the dark hours.
    Each Mac with an ALS (Ambient Light Sensor) will turn down the sleep light intensity when it is dark in the room. With Portables this of course only works when the lid is open. Obviously otherwise there would be no reading on the sensors.

  • Is this machine the most annoying PC EVER?

    is there any way that I can speed up my internet performance? I am so sick of watching that stupid little circle spin that I'm ready to buy a mac and just be done with it all.
    What are the tweaks that will smooth out how this thing operates? Does anyone else see the same issue?  Blame it on Vista if you want, but I have another vista box that does not have this problem.
    Why is it that when I click a link that the little circle needs to present itself and spin for a few seconds before it decides to go to a link?
    ALSO, what does that stupid circle continue to recycle every few seconds?? I JUST DONT GET IT?!!!! 
    By the way, I do not have McAffee.... Using Trend; which, all my other machines use as well.
    What can I do??
    THANKS IN ADVANCE

    Described problem has nothing common neither with Vista nor Lenovo. It's your Internet - it may be slow or you may have problems with your router or you've launched torrents/eMule in backgrond. Many things can cause such behaviour but none of them can be adressed Lenovo or Vista.
    Plese try using Mozilla Firefox 3.0.1 instead of IE that is buggy. Also test your speed and post it here - that'll help to resolve the case.

  • The most annoying "Ad" ever

    OK, I get it. You want me to pay. But I am not going to pay.  And I am not going to listen to a 3 minute, 30 second long ad disguised as music, from a genre I consider junk, in the middle of a classical music playlist. The Mates of State are not Bach. They aren't Beethoven. They don't use violins, cellos, or flutes. You may think they are the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I didn't come to Spotify to listen to The Mates of State.
    Don't get me wrong: I will be happy to listen to real ads, because that's what I signed up for, ads in the middle of my playlist. But if you must force me to listen to someone else's musical tastes, well, then I will say goodbye. And that really is that. Google Music is one click away, and guess what It's free.  What a shame. I was really enjoying listening to the collections people create here. But if I come back and here this hideous song by Mates of State again, if you insist that I listen to music I don't like, don't want to like, and well, refuse to like, well, then goodbye. 

    I came to complain about the same thing. I am sitting here listening to a playlist I made for my church and then this comes on. Some people might like it, and I might even listen to it when I am in that kind of mood, but to make me listen to a whole "song" that I didn't ask to listen to is terrible. 

  • Possibly the most annoying thing on the face of this planet.

    Obviously I've done something horribly wrong because I absolutely cannot log into a computer I've been trying to set up for my parents. My parents have a 1.25 GHz eMac and needed Leopard installed so they could sync a new iPod touch with iTunes, since Tiger does not support iTunes 10. So I upgraded the computer via target disk mode with an iBook G4 that collects dust in my closet and restarted the eMac, followed through with the setup assistant and created an account. The problem is that directly after the setup assistant finishes and ironically tells me "Enjoy your Mac!", instead of going straight to the desktop like I'm used to, it brings me to a blank login box. It shakes no matter what I put in. Even the user name and password I just created. If anyone happens to know what's up, I'll be forever grateful!

    Which exact procedure did you use? If you booted the ibook and installed to the e-Mac then the installer may have put an ibook version of the OS onto the e-Mac. If the e-Mac does not have a DVD drive you can borrow the ibook's drive by putting the ibook in TDM and do it that way around.

  • Flash player 11.5.502.149 will not install, states that the version of flash is not the most current

    I'm using the runtime (install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe) install for Flash 11.5.502.149 which I just downloaded.  I'm trying to install it on a Windows 7 64bit system.  When I try to run it the install tells me that the version of flash is not the most current and I should download the most recent version.  Accorsing to the site, this is the most recent version.  Any thoughts?
    Thaks,
    Keith

    By the time I saw this, the OS was corrupt.  This isn't going to help me right npw.  One very important item, though, for those of us who use the runtime to install, it needs to be modified so that it doesn't look for a newer version of the install before it actually installs.  We use Altiris to push this out to our folks and that check causes the installation process to stop.  My guess is that it is waiting for a response which will never occur since it is running in a hidden window.  I agree that it needs to be updated, but this method is causing significant issues.  This was the same problem I found when trying to install an older version of Flash that didn't  have the issues with Sysprep that later ones did. 
    That said, is there a switch for the install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe that will force it to run without checking first?  The -install doesn't stop the checking.
    Thanks,
    Keith

  • Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser

    Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser.
    WIN 7 enterprise 32 bit / Firefox 19.0.2 /
    Internal company website keeps giving attached screen shot error, and hangs the browser when error pops up.
    Steps taken:
    Uninstalled Adobe Flash player with the file “uninstall_flash_player.exe”
    Deleted provided directory in instructions
    "Copy and paste the following and click OK.
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash        
    Delete all the files in this folder."
    Rebooted PC and reinstalled the flash player directly from “http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html”
    Re launched company website and received same error.
    Repeated above steps as well as uninstalled Firefox browser.  Even went so far as to remove all profile information to start fresh from all profiles on the laptop with the same results.
    Note: The web page will work without the flash player plugin, and my page doesn’t hang the browser. Required to open page in FireFox per company policy.

    I'm sorry you're encountering this.  Could you paste a few of the most recent report ID links displayed when you go to "about:crashes" in the Firefox address bar?
    As for workarounds, the first thing I'd suggest is trying our 11.7 labs release which you can get here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html
    If that doesn't help, please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:
    How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
    In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.
    Thanks,

  • Premiere has the most enoying error ever in history

    Hello people, I'm working at a project that involves a lot of Premiere and after I've progressed with it, it gives me the most killer error ever. How can I solve this? I can't recover my work, so everytime I have to start over from some point it auto-saved. Please help me with this!
    I'll be waiting for your suggestions.
    Thanks!

    So... this isn't actually any help, but I would have to say the most annoying error message ever is FCP's "General Error". Which would then be followed by your system crashing. Has to set a record for least informative error ever, and it used to come up fairly often.
    I'd follow Steven's advice, and import either you project or sequence into a new project.

  • Flash Player on the Touch's Safari Browser?

    I'm I right in assuming that the Safari browser on the (16GB) iPod Touch does not support Flash, as so far any attempts to use Flash programs like YouTube (not through the dedicated browser) and other video streaming applications have not worked. If it does support it, how do I go about installing it? Thanks
    Another slightly related question: when I use the dedicated YouTube browser I keep finding that it crashes a lot, and when it doesn't crash it takes an awful long time to load and is very slow to respond to the video controls. Is this how it is meant to be or is there another reason behind this. Thanks again.

    There is currently no Flash player for the Touch. There is no way to install anything that will enable it. Whether there ever will is beyond the scope of my crystal ball.
    Can't answer the YouTube question as I've never had that problem.

  • I know longer have a flash player because the update will not accept my password.  I even changed my password.

    I no longer have a flash player because the update process will not accept my password even after I changed my password.

    We are all alive here, but not working for Adobe. Installing Flash Player isn't asking for your Adobe password.
    When you install or update most software you will be asked for your own computer's administrator password. This is the one you chose when you first switched on your machine, and nobody can tell you what it is.

  • My new speakers make the most annoying hissing noise!

    I have just purchased a set of creative megaworks 250d, now having owned an older set of speakers from creative in the past (dt surround system) i had expected the same good quality sound and craftsmanship.
    What did i get? The most annoying hissing sound in the world!
    I switch my system on and it gives out an audible hiss which can be heard upto 5-10meters away, this is completely ridiculous and pretty much ruins any sound which isnt played at a loud level!
    Ive contacted creative customer support who told me to return my product? well, fat use that is when i got my system from ebay and apparently the entire range does the same thing anyway?
    Please no comments about how my system is setup wrong and whether i have power interference, because just to check this i've been to maplins today to buy a power conditioner/filter (which cost me ?100 i may add) and a ground loop isolator, neither of these made any difference at all, still the digital snake invades my ears every time i turn the system on.
    Now i dont know what your trying to pull down at creative labs, but i can guarantee you wont be staying in the market lead making 'high quality computer audio products' that are by design defective. I want a valid solution to my problem please, i see 100 other threads on the internet concerning the same thing and quite frankly its not good enough. How much would it have cost you to install a pass filter inline to the amplifier to reduce this hiss? or is there one and its broken? is it the remote like some people are suggesting?

    *BUMP* Any solution would be good? im fairly adept with electronics so dont mind taking the unit apart if a technician would like to tell me how to fix this hiss. Would a low pass filter on the speaker line be a good solution or maybe ferrite coils on the positve wire?, would either of those work before i go out and spend yet more money?
