Flash plug-in not recognized in Firefox

I wasn't sure where to put this. I'll be putting it on the Mozilla site as well.
I've installed the Flash 10 plug-in about half a dozen times on my Macbook and I cannot get the web content to work. It appears to install properly, i restart the site and/or reboot the PC and everytime the flash content should come up, it prompts me to install Flash again. It keeps acting like i don't have it installed.
Any help? If this isn't the right discussion, let me know.

Try this one more time. Uninstall FlashPlayer. Install the newest version here.
Repair permissions after the update.

  • PDF Reader plug-in not recognized by Firefox

    Using the latest version of Firefox on a Mac running OS Snow Tiger.
    In my browser prefs I have "Use Adobe Reader (default)" selected for all PDF documents presented to me online yet EVERY TIME I click on the PDF document, I get the error message:
    "It appears you don't have support to open PDFs in this web browser. A plugin is needed to display this content. Click here to install."
    Yet which I follow that link, I get a message "No suitable plugins were found."
    At the Mozilla side, PDF isn't even LISTED as an available plug-in!
    Thus, I have to download the PDF file and open it with Adobe Reader.
    This is truly a nuisance when I'm doing online research that involves a lot of reading of PDF documents.
    Seems that I USED to be able to view PDF docs within my browser once upon a time ... what happened?

  • Where to find a new flash plug-in (not Adobe product)?

    I suppose that Adobe could stop plug-in support. It not work at all - why to continue?
    Is there any other producer that could product flash plug-ins? It looks that many pages have features that need that plug-in but I don't trust Adobe anymore - it is like Microsoft: products that work ... if them work . If them work them works very slowly ... like pdf reader. Use google and try to find better pdf reader... I use one of them ... when Adobe need 10-50 sec to load it starts immediately even if document is big or even huge. Flash plug-in not work ... it had been problems already several months but made full stop with Opera today. As I read - it is not problem only with Opera ... massive problems made by Adobe. OK - it is not surprise ... I wait this already few years ...

  • Flash content does not play in Firefox

    PROBLEM:
    Videos and Flash content hang in Firefox. The screen is grey and the twirling circle is frozen. This is a recent problem; this behavior is new and it is unclear what has changed in my system.
    1. The problem does not occur with I.E.
    2. Win8 , Firefox, and Flash plug-in are current.
    3. Running Firefox in safe mode does not help.
    4. I have removed and reinstalled Firefox , Flash, and RealPlayer
    5. Java is working.
    ''temporary'' SOLUTION:
    Deleted RealPlayer
    ''edited by a moderator''

    Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash update and/or a malfunctioning browser plugin such as Real Player.
    In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
    * [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
    * [[Flash 11.3 crashes]]

  • Flash plug-in not listed in the Safari installed plug-ins page

    Dear all,
    I'm running Mac OS 10.5.8 on a Intel Imac and I'm facing the same problem since the first time I wanted to upgrade the version 10 of the Flash plug-in.
    I have different accounts and various internet browsers (Safari, FireFox, Opera, Chrome) only Safari, on my main account (admin), causes problems. Actually the plug-in (10.3) is properly installed in  /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/, so common to all accounts (the users' Internet Plug-Ins folders are empty) and it is visible from the System Preferences application.
    Internet Plug-Ins folder content:
    AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    CANONiMAGEGATEWAYDL.plugin
    CANONiMAGEGATEWAYLI.plugin
    DirectorShockwave.plugin
    Flash Player.plugin
    flashplayer.xpt
    iPhotoPhotocast.plugin
    JavaPluginCocoa.bundle
    npContributeMac.bundle
    nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt
    Quartz Composer.webplugin
    QuickTime Plugin.plugin
    QuickTime Plugin.webplugin
    VerifiedDownloadPlugin.plugin
    But Safari doesn't lists the flash plug-in in the installed plug-ins page and returns a missing plug-in error message as I visit any website containing a flash movie. When I replace the current plug-in with version 10.0.r2 it works fine.
    Before installing any upgrade I first run the uninstaller, restart the computer and then install the newest version. I tried many things to fixe this very annoying problem without success. I'm not going to list all of them but I mainly cleared Safari and Flash Player preferences, Safari Cache.db, removed all other plug-ins (to check for conflicts). I also used some tools as Apple Disk utily and OnyX to repair disk permissions and fix other possible problems.
    I would be very grateful if you could help me!

    Hello Chris,
    Any other suggestions? Because this story drives me crazy !
    I don't know if it matters, but  Flash CS4 is installed on my Mac.
    Event if it doesn't make sense I tried to clear any file related to the flash plug-in, Flash Player and Safari
    Safari:
    com.apple.Safari.plist
    Cache.db
    Flash:
    ~/Library/Caches/Adobe/Flash Player/
    ~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/
    com.macromedia.Flash Player Debugger.app.plist
    Flash Player Debugger_00000000-0000-1000-8000-0016CB846CCB_CrashHistory.plist
    Flash Player_00000000-0000-1000-8000-0016CB846CCB_CrashHistory.plist
    com.adobe.flash-10.0.plist
    Flash 10 MRU
    flashplayer.xpt
    I have uninstall Flash Player Debugger and the Flash Plugin
    removed all plug-ins from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Replaced all previous versions of Flash player by the latest version (10.3r183)
    I ran all OnyX maintenance scripts and repaired disk permissions
    After restarting the computer I installed the plug-in and replaced all previous plug-in version everywhere
    e.g. : /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Flash Player/Flash Player.plugin
    Restarted again and then launched Safari. The plugin is well in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, but not listed in installed plug-ins list
    I repeated this "procedure" several time, from different accounts, I also removed the admin rights on the problematic account and perform the installation from a new admin account without success!
    I can drop any plug-in in the Internet Plug-Ins folder and I only have to refresh the the Installed Plug-ins page in order that Safari takes it into account. All, but the flash plug-in! 
    I really do no understand why Safari can't "see" newer plug-ins than the 10.0 version.
    I'm lost and ran out of ideas!

  • 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: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

  • Flash 10.3 not working with Firefox 6

    Up until today, I've never had any problems with Firefox and Flash Player.
    However, all of a sudden, Flash won't work for me, today.
    I've already uninstalled Firefox, uninstalled Flash Player, re-installed Firefox (Windows 7) and re-installed Flash Player 10.3. I already checked to ensure the Flash Plug-in is enabled and updated.
    Anyone have any idea what is going on here?
    edit: since the original posting, I also ran a malware scan (found no infections) and also cleared the cache. No change in my situation; still same original problem.

    It seems the problem was related to the "NoScript" extension. For whatever reason, without my knowledge, "NoScript" started blocking all Adobe Flash. I only discovered that by chance, when I went to: Add-ons >> Extensions >> NoScript Options >> Embeddings, and found the "forbid Adobe Flash" box checked.
    I toggled that box to off, and everything started working fine again.
    I've been using Firefox, NoScript, and Flash all for a while, through several version updates of these products, and never had this problem before. I don't know why it happened, but it sure was annoying.
    Anyways, fixed now. I hope my experience helps someone else get a faster solution to the same problem.

  • Why are my plug-ins not recognized by Photoshop CS5?

    Hello,
    It seems my plug-ins are not recognized at all by Photoshop CS5:
    - Imagenomic

    and even the - Optional Plug-ins given by Adobe are not working
    I get a panel that says:

    Am I doing something wrong?
    The plug-ins are in:

  • Flash 10.1 not working in Firefox 3.6.6

    I have been trying to get video to play in Firefox after downloading and installing 10.1 last weekend.  Sites like ESPN3, Hulu, CBS, USA, Daily Show, etc. no longer work.  Everything will load any commercials play then the player sits there and does nothing.  Other sites that need it seem to work fine, like Mafia Wars on FB.  I have gone through all the online help on Adobe's site and followed some of the forums discussions that were similar and none of it has helped, except that I did successfully install it for IE8 32 bit (and it is working fine).
    My laptop is running Vista Home Premium 64 bit, Firefox version 3.6.6, AVG version 9.0.839, Flash Player version WIN 10,1,53,64.
    Any ideas?

    The FlashPlayerTrust folder contains 2 files:  EACoreTrust.cfg and rpconverter.cfg
    The grayed out button says Movie Not Loaded.  I just checked YouTube and the same thing happens.  Nothing plays, so I can't click after the flash starts.  I have left sites sitting for 10 minutes to see if it starts, but it doesn't.
    I am not using AdBlocker on FF, and the pop-up blocker in IE is turned off.
    I am using CA Security Suite.  I've been using it since 2008, get it free as part of my RoadRunner subscription.  I see no add-ons on either FF or IE.
    As I said, everything worked fine before the update, earlier in the spring I believe.  There was an update to FF this morning, I was hoping it would address the issue, but there is no difference.
    I really appreciate all the assistance you're giving me.
    Thanks

    Just wanted to add, when I go to the Adobe sites to check, the Shockwave Player animation works for both browsers, but the Flash animation does not work for either one.

  • Adobe Flash Upgrade will not install after Firefox upgrade to 3.6.7

    I upgraded to Firefox 3.6.7. After the upgrade I got a message that I needed to upgrade Adobe Flash due to security vulnerabilities. The Flash upgrade will not install. It simply sits and never installs no matter how long I wait.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice

    Thanks for your response. I have previously reviewed this. The only potential problem it seems to resolve is having 2 versions of Shockwave installed. I only have one. The only thing I can think of to do is just uninstall the one version and see if it will trigger an installation. When I go to the Flash install site, I agree to the terms and get the next screen that says download will start. I never get a message asking if it's ok to run or anything. No matter where I look for a download for Flash I wind up at the same place with the same problem. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Flash Plug In not working

    Hello. I have been having some serious trouble playing videos
    on Youtube and Video Google. I don't know if something got messed
    up on my computer or what. I had trouble watching anime on my new
    system. (Youtube and Google video used to work fine before this).
    So I downloaded Gspot to tell me which codecs I needed. It said
    Xvid. I read on some sites like vidoehelp.com what other common
    codex I should install so I installed Xvid, FFDShow, and divX. My
    anime didn't work. I uninstalled all of them. I tried a K-lite
    codec pack since that worked on my old system, anime still didn't
    work. So I uninstalled that one. My youtube and google video audio
    from this point on has not worked. I deleted the remnants of the
    folders of Xvid, ffdshow, and divX after I uninstalled them,
    reinstalled them, and for some reason, my anime worked. (I also
    installed WMP 10 insted of WMP 11 since I didn't like WMP 11). I
    uninstalled my flash plug in with the uninstall_flash_player.exe,
    rebooted, and re-installed it. I reinstalled my realtek audio hd
    driver (I have the Abit AW8D mobo). I still do not have any audio
    on these streaming websites which I am guessing use the flash
    plug-in. Any advice? Thanks!

    If your device is a Galaxy Tab 3 10.0 then you have an Intel Android device. Adobe never released an Intel versions of Adobe Flash Player. In addition Adobe has stopped releasing new versions of Flash.
    You would need an ARM based Android device to play Flash content. In addition Google removed key bit of code that allowed Flash to work as of Android 4.4. Adobe Flash on Android does not have a future.

  • Plug-ins not recognized

    Logic is not recognizing:
    - Cakewalk Dimension Pro
    - Native Instruments StormDrum
    - Native Instruments Battery
    - Spectrasonics Atmosphere
    - Spectrasonics Stylus RMX
    Logic is recognizing:
    - IK Philharmonik Orchestra
    - IK Sonik Synth 2
    So, any ideas on what could be the problem? I rely heavily on these plugins.. What things could I try to have them work?
    The strange thing is that; Rax can see all the plugins and Digital Performer can see all the plugins. But it's Logic and (Garageband) that cannot see any but just those two.
    Thanks in advance.

    Have you tried opening the AU Validation tool, and re-scanning from there? Often times, that'll fix plug-ins that you know have passed before.
    NI's Storm Drum, and Spectrasonics Atmosphere and RMX passed fine over here.
    And there is a new 1.6.1 update for RMX available now, specifically for Logic 8 users, that fixes the multi-channel problem.
