Flash Player opens several windows.

Flash Player opens several windows and does not work. Uninstalled yesterday downloaded new rebooted and reinstalled. Same thing. Windows 7 Pro, Firefox 17.0.1 Usually leaves a blank window upper left on my desktop.

Try resetting your Firefox profile (if you have't already).  Instructions to do this are partway down in this FAQ.

  • Flash player opens new windows constantly

    Hi,
    this week my adobe flash started to open separately from my browser.
    When I try to play a game or watch a video it opens the game/video outside the browser page.
    I've already tried to uninstall it and install it again but the problem keeps happening.
    My browser is Mozzila Firefox.
    Could anybody help me?

  • Flash player opening in new window even for flash in websites

    Ok, so ive searched the net and not found a single person with my problem, if its something easy ive missed im sorry. Flash player opens in a new window for every bit of flash. Like if I go to hulu and start to watch a movie it will not load in browser but open a new window on the desktop and begin playing. If I go to a website that has a flash based set up like the air forces website just the backround will load and the flash thats supposed to be on the page tries to load in a new window like hulu but since its not a movie it doesnt work. It does this for everything flash, meaning if I go to a flash heavy website I see only the html parts and end up with tons of blank flash windows in my task bar I cant bring up. Im running firefox but it does it for ie too so I dont think its a browser issue.

    That resolved the issue. Thank you so much.

  • Flash player opens muted by default on all browsers

    In the past couple days I have experienced an annoying issue where flash player opens muted on all browsers.  This is WIndows 7 64-bit OS, the latest Flash Players, the latest browsers (IE, Firefox and Opera).  I can unmute but having to do so every time I open a new video is DANG annoying!  Is there any registry or hidden config settings that controls the opening state of audio for the flash player that I can modify...I have never seen this in years of using Flash Player...help please...
    After reading more discussions and testing flash player on other sites that stream flash its obvious that the issues stems from YouTube...but this only coincides with the latest release of Flash Player.  This indicates that Flash Player is allowing stream content to manipulate controls on the player...so how can we prevent this????

    Google has acknowledged a "glitch" in their YouTube code that is causing this. There is NOTHING that Flash Player has to do with it, and there is NOTHING that Flash Player can fix in YouTube's code. Google has stated that they are working on the fix this week.

  • Flash Player 10.1 + Window printing in IE

    Hi,
    We have a web application that uses a third party flah elements (Fussion Charts). And we display several charts and some texts and use the "window.prin()" system to print these pages and use them as briefings.
    We normally use this ovet IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox and Chrome.
    We have detected an error when using MS browsers (IE6, IE7 & IE8) with the latest Flash Player version : 10,1,53,64.
    Since we updated to that version, when we print the page via "window.print()" menu, the flash objects are not displayed at its original size but the flash elements are very small... tiny.
    I've tried printing other pages wieh flah in them (Even the Adobe web page) and I have the same result... Flash elements are printed tiny and not at the configured size.
    This is happening since we updated to 10.1.53.64, we have some PCs with version 10,0,22,87 installed and the printings works fine.
    Is this a 10.1 version Bug??
    please help!
    Thanks in advance!!,
    Arman

    Yes,  I was able get my hand on an earlier release of flash and it works
    correclty so it is definitely an issue with the lastest release.
    We are having users install a earlier release until the issue is fixed.
    Thanks for the information.

  • Flash Player 7 for Windows Mobile crashes Pocket IE

    I just downloaded and installed the latest Flash Player 7 for
    Windows Mobile on my Windows Mobile 2003 SE device. As a result
    Pocket Internet Explorer crashes whenever it tries to open a page
    with Flash content - including the adobe.com website. Opera Mobile
    seems not to recognize the player and simply ignores all Flash
    content.
    Is there any way to fix this and to get Flash support on
    Windows Mobile 2003 SE ?

    You will probably find that Adobe.com is using Flash 8 or 9
    content, hence
    the crash. Since most up-to-date web sites will be similar,
    you may find
    Flash 7 is largely unusable for web surfing.
    Just speculating.
    I don't know for certain.

  • How do I disable the hardware acceleration in Flash player on a Windows XP machine remotely?

    How do I disable the hardware acceleration in Flash player on a Windows XP machine remotely?
    I have a few hundred computers running Adobe Flash Player.
    The operation system is Windows XP.
    They are Compaq 6005 desktop PC’s, with an inbuilt ATI radeon HD 4200 video card.
    We have a persistent issue where viewing a flash video (e.g. something on youtube) causes the video card driver to crash.  You are left with no video signal to the monitor.  Audio continues and the computer still responds to commands. This only happens when watching flash video.
    We have tried:
    Updating flash plugin (numerous versions)
    Updating the video card drivers (we have tried the last three video card driver versions, including the HP drivers and ATI drivers)
    Updating the browsers (this problem happens with IE8/9 and Firefox10/11/12)
    There seems to be two ways to work round this issue.  One is to disable the video acceleration in the ‘troubleshoot’ section in the advanced part of the display settings area in windows.  The other way is to start a flash video, right click, go to ‘settings’ and untick the box marked ‘Enable Hardware Acceleration’.
    Doing either of these things allows the user to view flash videos with no apparent issues.
    Is there a way to disable the hardware acceleration in Flash without visiting the PC?  Perhaps an undocumented option in the mms.cfg file? I understand that you can use an option to skip the video card check, and so force hardware acceleration on, can you do the opposite?
    Thanks in advance
    Daniel.

    Hi.
    I have had over 200 views, and no suggestions as to how this could be fixed.
    I have also posted in the general flash forum, that thread has fewer views.
    If I should put this question in a different forum please let me know which one.
    If what I am asking is not possible is there a mechanism for escalating this issue or requesting a feature for the next version of flash?
    Thanks.

  • Everytime I start my iMac it opens several windows. I don´t know what to do to prevent this.

    Everytime I start my iMac it opens several windows: Word, Excel, etc. I don´t know how to prevent this. I have to spend several minutes everytime closing 5 or 6 windows. I close everything before I sign out so I don´t know what to do. Please help.

    In addition, OS X Lion includes a function referred to as Resume, where it will automatically re-open any app left running when the machine was shut down or restarted.
    To prevent that from happening, you can uncheck the item in the shutdown or restart splash screen which refers to re-opening running apps. Unfortunately, this has to be done every time.
    The alternative is to get in the habit of quitting all apps before shutting down or restarting.
    Note that in the user's guide Apple suggests not shutting the machine down unless it will be unused for more than a few days. Not sure how many 'few' is in that context, but since I use mine every day I never shut it down (unless there's an electrcal storm in the area).

  • Flash Player 9 And Windows 98

    I am current having a problem wwith flash player 9 under
    windows 98. It seem that when I visit a site that uses Flash player
    that Flash keeps using more and more of the system memory to the
    point that the system resources will be exhausted, causing the PC
    to slow and stop functioning properly. Once either all instances of
    IE or Firefox are closed the resources are returned and my PC
    operates "normally" again. Depending upon which web sites are
    visited this problem can occour after as little as 5-10 minutes.
    Returning to flash player 8 removed this problem. Are they any
    known confiliction under windows 98 when using flash player 9?
    Any help with this problem would be greatly
    appreciated.

    well I managed to generate some good news. I attempted
    installing the version 9 again and it didn't work so I went
    throught the install list and located the subdirectory it was
    attempting to ubsuccessfully install into and deleted the entire
    subdirectory and reinstalled again. this time it correctly
    installed version 9 and when I rebooted and ran the version checker
    it finally responded with the correct version 9 within the correct
    oS win 98. I think what had happened is I accidently clicked the
    uopgrade icon and it overwrote version 9 with version 10 and
    wouldn't allow me to rewrite the version 9 back into its original
    location. anyways it is now working and I'll know better that to
    authorize a version upgrade on the 98 system.
