Flash plugin is installed and enabled, but Firefox doesn't recognize content.

I have the latest version of flash player installed and enabled. When I go to Adobe's test page, it recognizes the install and lists the correct version number, but the test animation at the top of the page fails to load properly. Also, the applications handler in Firefox's 'options' menu fails to list any flash compatible file types. On YouTube, I'm met with the video throbber stuck, unmoving, against a black rectangle. Right clicking the video and trying to view the 'settings' dialog does nothing.
I have tried deleting 'pluginreg.dat' and a number of other solutions I've found online, but nothing has made a difference. My other plugins (java, acrobat, etc.) all work fine. Thanks, in advance, for any help.

Grab the uninstaller from here:

'''[http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html Uninstall Flash Player | Mac]'''
Then reinstall the latest version.
Flash player '''v15.0.0.189 http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/'''

fixed first download link as it was linking to Shockwave player and not the proper Flash player. If it says shockwave in end of link then that is not Flash but the shockwave for director or rather shockwave player.

  • Flashplayer 11 installed and enabled but not working

    using IE 11 with Windows 7. previous version(s) have worked in the past. However IE version 11 was recently installed and flash player issue started at that time. Maybe related??? Adobe site says installation successful. Went through all related troubleshooting tips and no issues were found.

    IE11 has wrought havoc since it was released.
    Facebook, Yahoo, YouTube, Pogo... all have reported numerous problems.
    Microsoft has recommended enabling Compatibility view for affected sites: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11  but that has met with about 50% success.

    Hi,

    The thumbnails (buttons to navigate the photo gallery) didn't show up at all. (The thumbnails should show up under the photo gallery box.)
    The text doesn't show up (the text should be in every photo as describtion)
    I want to include Swipe in the photo gallery, how can I do that?
    When I click on "Chocolate Sources" button, the photo gallery appears in every section, here are print screens describe what I mean:

  • HP Pavilion dv6t- power cord in and charging but computer doesn't recognize it

    Hello all,
    Sometimes when I plug my laptop in, my laptop says it's still on battery power, the light on the outside of the ac outlet won't turn on and my battery bar tells me the battery is discharging, even though it is definitely charging, the charging light on the front of the laptop is on and the battery will go to 100%.  I don't know how to tell if this is a software issue, an issue with the cord, or an issue with the computer's outlet.  Usually when this happens, I unplug it and plug it back in multiple times until the little light comes on and the computer recognizes the ac. Any suggestions?  I want to resolve this before my computer gets some kind of electrical shock.
    Thanks,
    -Rebecca

    YAY!
    called HP support and they won't even talk to me unless I pay them for support.  This is bogus.  Obviously, this is either a known issue or a normal indication that either the battery or the ac adaptor is malfuctioning.
    So, as I understand it, these are my choices:
    1.  Give in to HP extortion and pay them just to talk, in hopes they actually have a relevant solution.
    2.  Pay $100 for a new battery and see if that is the problem.
    3.  Pay $75 for a new ac adaptor to see if that is the problem.
    4.  Live with the issue and pray that my laptop doesn't just stop working at the worst time possible (on a stage in front of hundreds of people).
    Thanks HP, the only thing I know for sure is that I will not be buying another one of your products.

  • Flash plugin works well on Chrome, but why it does not work on Firefox? :(

    I've updated Flash Player quite a number of times, but whenever I try to play a video on Youtube or any other websites, the same line of words appears asking me to download Flash Player. I've got the Adobe Flash Player installed not long ago and it works just well on Chrome. The flash plugin in Internet Explorer is not working too..
    please help ~

    Google Chrome comes with its own version of the Flash Player plugin.
    Your system details list doesn't show that the Shockwave Flash plugin is installed and enabled.
    You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page.

  • Installed and verifed but Flash Player continues to crash in Firefox.  Any suggestions

    Flash Player sometime activates and then crashes after a few seconds.

    Thanks for responding Chris.  Flash Player consistently crashes no matter what site I am in.  I've tried all of the suggested fixes in Flash Player help and nothing has been successful. The computer confirms that I have downloaded the most recent file but Adobe Flash Player doesn't show in the Firfox Add Ons.  I also tried Firefox flash player suggestions but none worked.  It crashes no matter what page I am on.  If flash player is required, it crashes.  It also crashes in Internet Explorer.  I am a novice so please bear with me.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    created by chris.campbell in Using Flash Player - View the full discussionHello,I'm sorry you're encountering these problems.  I'll try what I can to help. 1. Have you tried any browser other than Firefox?  It would be helpful to know if these same types of crashes occur with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome.2. Did this crashing behavior just start occurring?  If so, was there a particular update or event that preceded the crashing?3. Does the crashing happen consistently?  Ie. If you go to the same web page that contains Flash content, does it crash every time you visit?  Does it crash when you visit this page?  Flash Player Help  What pages does it crash on?4. Can you visit about:crashes within Firefox and submit some of the most recent crashes.  Once submitted, please post back with the crash URL's.4. Can you try resetting your Firefox profile?  Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
    Firefox Help5. Finally, can you try temporarily disabling protected mode to see if that makes a difference (this will be the last step in the faq)?  How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox? Thanks,

  • Adobe Flash 11.4 Installed on pc, but doesn't appear in plugin add-on list. flash or youtube videos won't play

    Hi
    I updated to the latest flash player 11.4.402.287 today, both the activex or plugin versions appear in the flash manager. However, I am unable to play flash videos in youtube, the bar at the top indicates "Install missing plugin" I have repeated the installation process, it does appear to complete successfully, but again when attempting to play youtube videos the "install missing plugin appears" and videos will not play.
    I have also installed and re-installed the latest version of firefox today, thought that may help, seem to have the same problem. The flash player isn't listed in the plugin add on list. I'm not sure what else to do or what the problem could be.
    I would appreciate any advice, please

    H Shaun, <br/>I am using Ubuntu at the moment. I am not sure if the Adobe installer recognises you are on a 32 bit browser and even if it does it presumably allows you a choice, but why not just check and ensure it is a 32 bit version you have installed; and if in doubt uninstall and reinstall.
    If Flash is installed and suitable for Firefox it should show as a [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Gecko_Plugin_API_Reference/Plug-in_Basics#How_Gecko_finds_plug-ins listed] plugin so if it does not show something has gone wrong, and there can be little expectation of Flash working in Firefox.

  • Since installing Firefox 4 Beta 5, the Add-Ons manager is empty. My add-ons still appear to be installed and working, but I can't install more, or uninstall, or configure them.

    My add-ons still appear to be installed and working, but I can't install more, or uninstall, or configure them.

    Try forcing Firefox to rebuild the list of installed add-ons.
    # Open the profile folder, for details of how to access it see the [[profiles]] article.
    # Close Firefox, then delete extensions.sqlite (you can also delete extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.rdf if they exist)
    When you restart Firefox the list of installed add-ons should be rebuilt.
    If that did not work, you may have an add-on that is causing the problem, try the options in the [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article.
    If you type '''about:addons''' into the location bar does that bring up the list of add-ons? I have seen a blank add-ons list if Mr Tech Toolkit add-on is installed, accessing the add-ons manager by typing about:addons in the location bar is a workaround with that add-on installed. The author of that add-on is working on an update.
