Flash plugin crashes everytime I touch a key on the keyboard.

I've tried Safe Mode but I get the same issue. Firefox is updated and so is Flash.
It happens 100% of the time on YouTube, but not every site that uses Flash.
I've tried fresh installs, reinstalling graphics drivers, safe mode, new users, hardware acceleration, you name it.
This has been happening since last December.

Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it
won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it
If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
* see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

* disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)

While you are in safe mode;

Under '''Advanced,''' Select '''General.'''
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

  • Every time I click on Firefox window &/or touch a key on the keyboard a NEW window opens and eventually opens up to some advertizement that I do NOT want to see

    It happened to me again(which it ALWAYS does) when I entered the above question...and I got a add about something from APPLE and I do NOT have any APPLE equipment...

    Hi asduane, <br /> Sorry you are having problems.
    I guess you have picked up some sort of adware or malware. Try to check and get reviews on both software and download sites. Then take care to read the small print about what is being installed.
    Run scans with multiple and up-to-date tools. Hopefully it will be easily detected and removed. I would not suggest you try any manual hacks or edits of the Windows registry. (Once rogue files are removed any residual registry entry will not normally do any harm.)
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

    * [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

    * [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ AdwCleaner: (for adware)]
    * [http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan Kaspersky Free security scan]
    You need to use multiple and up-to-date tools as they will not all pick up the same things.

  • FireFox opens & Adobe Flash Plugin crashes in a WOT "automatic" download.

    WOT “automatically downloads” on a separate tab every time I start FireFox. Almost every time I start FireFox the Adobe Flash Plugin crashes in the WOT automatic download and ties up my PC. The problem does not occur with Internet-Explorer which I seldom use.
    1- I removed WOT and re-installed it, but it continued the same.
    2- I reinstalled the Adobe Flash Plugin which I always keep up to date.
    3- Please work this out.
    4- Why must WOT automatically download on a separate tab every time I start FireFox? It is very annoying.
    Thank you for all you do. Have a blessed day, Steve Lahey.

  • Lion 10.7.4 Flash Plugin Crashes

    I am using a mid 2009 Macbook pro, and just updated to 10.7.4. Since doing this my Flash plugin crashes on both Safari and Firefox so I can't even load Youtube videos.
    I've got the most updated version of Firefox and Flash player, and after looking through forums have tried rebooting my Macbook several times. Each time I reboot Youtube videos load a little bit more without crashing, but I havn't got more than 5 seconds into a video yet.
    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Hi...
    Quit your browsers.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Very important to uninstall the currently installed plugin first.
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

  • When I try to print coupons, I get a message that the coupon printer plugin has crashed. I've tried following the instructions for when the Adobe Flash plugin crashes, but reloading the page does not work. Just sits there for 5 minutes doing nothing.

    Happens when going to print.coupons.com. I click the "learn more" button on the message that the plugin has crashed, and I get sent to the Adobe Flash plugin crash info page on Firefox. They say just to reload the page. There is a button for this. I click it and the page tries to reload for 5 minutes before freezing.

  • Flash plugin crashes after Lion 10.7.4 update

    Has any one had this most recent Flash related problem?
    After updating my system to 10.7.4, the flash plugin crashes in both Safari and Firefox.  Videos don;t so much as start.
    I reverted back to 10.7.3 with time machine and flash workes fine again.  Reinstalled the update, and broken again.
    Safari and Firefox are all up to date as well as the flash plugin. All caches have been cleared. Based on info I have gotten from this and other forums, I have checked all the settings in the flash system preferences.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    I've had a similar problem.  On my first boot up after installing 10.7.4,  Firefox would not open.  Crashed every time.  Safari was not affected.  I have no idea if it was related to the flash plugin, but I did install a the latest version of that a couple of weeks ago. 
    Here's what fixed it: a second boot up.

  • Firefox 16.0.1 Crashes, Not Responding with Unresponsive Script Warnings and Adobe Flash Plugin Crashes

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing some issues with Firefox 16.0.1 which I had also experienced with Firefox 15.0.1.
    On numerous occasions Firefox has crashed while attempting to access a website link contained in an AOL e-mail message.
    Unrelated to that issue, Firefox has hung up frequently with associated unresponsive script warnings and occasionally with the Adobe Flash Plugin crashing. Some of the unresponsive script warnings are:

    I've reset Firefox and disabled all the plugins and yet these problems persist.
    What are those script warnings actually telling me and are there any recommendations on how to resolve these issues?
    Thank you,

    You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
    *disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
    *disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

    While trying to play a game on facebook called "FrontierVille" I always get "adobe flash plugin crashed".  I have uninstalled and re-installed the adobe flash player but to no avail.  All the other games like "Farmville" work fine. 
    Can anyone help me out?

    Try disabling hardware acceleration.  If that does not solve the problem, you have to post some more information like

    I'm running on Ubuntu 9.10 with Firefox 3.6.10.
    thanks to the first post, i didn't downgrade Firefox to 3.5 but i did download 3.5.
    Here is what i did:
    I downloaded 3.5.13 : http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    The link to 3.5.13 is on the right under Other Versions.
    Once you click on FF 3.5.13, it'll take you to all different languages of 3.5.13.
    I got the English version. The name of the file is : firefox-3.5.13.tar.bz2
    Once downloaded, i opened the location of the file( Downloads folder) and opened the package by double clicking on it. YOur 9.10 should be able to recognize bz2 format and you will see a folder called Firefox in the archive.
    Simply, extract the folder and place it on your desktop.
    IF you want to run FF3.5.13, close all firefox browsers that are already opened.
    Once this is done, Open the folder "Firefox" that you just extracted and double click on the file firefox. It should ask you to run, display, run in terminal... simply press run.
    This is how i got it to work. simple steps. to confirm it is working, check the version of firefox and try paltalk express

  • Problems with "v", "]", and command keys on the keyboard

    Hi,
    On my MacBook, pressing either the "v" key or the command key to the left of the space bar, without pressing the other one as in a keyboard shortcut, pastes what is currently on my clipboard. Pressing only the command key to the right of the space bar, and not the "]" key in combination, moves me forward in my web browser. When I do press the "]" key, nothing happens (I had to copy and paste the "]" and the "v" for this post). Obviously this is somewhat annoying as typing anything with these two symbols becomes a chore. I am still able to use other keyboard shortcuts, however, but in doing so the command key either pastes from the clipboard or, if I'm using a web browser, moves me to the next page in my history before completing the shortcut. How can I fix this? Thanks.

    Try resetting your SMC.
    Resetting the System Management Controller >>
    Try resetting PRAM:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    3. Turn on the computer.
    4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound (bong) for four times.
    6. Release the keys.
    If neither help, you could have a hardware issue with the keyboard.

  • Adobe Reader X closes when I press any key in the keyboard.

    Hello,
    I have recently updated my windows from xp to 7 and installed the latest version of adobe reader. Then I encountered a problem, after some time using my PC, Adobe Reader would close whenever I touched any key in my keyboard, but not on my mouse, so I could only view pdf files by moving around using the mouse, and loss funcionalities like searching for a word in the document, or saving it with a different name. The only way to solve this problem was to restart my PC, and then everything would be allright for a while, then the problem happened again. I uninstalled and installed Adobe again, however this problem persists, so I'm seeking help here.
    There is another thread with the same problem here http://forums.adobe.com/thread/901383, however it's dead and no solution is presented.
    Any help would be great, regards from Chle.

    I answer myself, solution is here http://forums.adobe.com/message/3806894#3806894, it took me a while to find it though.

  • Glitch with the Arrow Keys on the Keyboard

    Hello all,
    I apologize if this has been addressed somewhere before, I assure you I've checked the FAQ's but to no avail. Out of the blue my arrow, or "nudge" keys on the keyboard for moving objects incrementally stopped working. I have to select objects and move them with the mouse or with the "Move" menu etc. The crazy thing is that the keys work in other areas of the program, like scrolling through font's and such, as well as all other apps, Photoshop, Flash, etc. I'm just stabbing here to make sure I didn't unintentially disable those keys in the program somewhere. It's not a huge deal, aggravating, and very, very, strange. BTW, I have done the uninstall, reinstall but no change. Any input will be appreciated...

    Something else to consider is the increment setting you have entered in your preferences.
    If it's exceedingly small (say 0.001 pt) you may not see the movement from a number of keypress arrow nudges unless you're zoomed in tight.
    Resetting your Illustrator prefs will merely set it back to the default, which is something you
    i can
    see at normal viewing magnification.
