Flash plugin only crashing in Mozilla

Have trouble when navigating facebook.
Mozilla hangs for 5 to 6 seconds, freezing every mozilla tab or window that is open and sometimes crashes.
On facebook I get the "script is taking too long" message but I suspect that it has something to do with flash cause from time to time I get the plugin container failed related to flash and some other weird behaviour with flash (see below)
Things I tried:
- Disable every plugin.
- Running safe mode
- Refresh Firefox
- Disable hardware accelleration on the flash plugin
- Disable safe mode for Flash plugin
- Completely uninstal flash according to this procedure:
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
I am running a recently freshly instaled win 8.1 on a 12GB RAM i7 quad processor.
The thing that makes me suspect is that according to this link:
https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
When I right click the flash logo for that procedure, Mozilla freezes, nothing gets displayed and some seconds later I get a "Shockwave Flash might be busy... stop plugin..." message
This is very annoying and I want to use Firefox but have been forced to chrome lately cause I cannot find this problem.
Please, any help is appreciated.
Here are the latest crash reports:

System File Check didn't produce any improvement.
Graphics driver are updated with last available from Manufacturer for this laptop (ASUS N550JK)
Main problem is not using or not using flash.
Main problem is with facebook page hanging mozilla for several seconds at a time and sometimes getting "script is taking too long" I guess this have to do with the scritp that loads posts on your facebook wall as you scroll down but cannot find what is causing that.
This only happens with Mozilla.
Searching for the cause, I found that odd behaviour with flash on that page wich maybe suggest the problem is there but I still haven't found a solution.

The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0

The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0, and my Plugin Check link in Addons Manager directs to https://www.mozilla.com/en/404 .
Is this a hack attempt? Is Firefox 3.6 safer than the release channel?

Thankss, but it sounds a bit complicated for me. Maybe I can just reinstall FF?
~And would switching back to FF 3.6 (or whatever the latest Official release is), rather than being on the new Release Channel be safer than FF 12?

In Gmail. "Adobe Flash PLUGIN has Crashed" trying to ATTACH a file

"Adobe Flash PLUGIN has Crashed" error message in Gmail when trying to attach a large file. Error pops up after 7 to 8 megs are uploaded.

Thanks for that, I had this problem too and it solved it out for me.
The only problem was to be able to find a flash video that would work,
you might want to try to open a youtube link that somebody posted on facebook,
and than right click it and disable hardware accelaration.

Firefox crashes: "Adobe Flash Plugin has Crashed" (in safemode)

In Gmail / compose / attach a file (about 11 Megs)
about 3/4 of file is uploaded when a bar opens at the top with error message. "Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed" ... click to reload the page (reload never works & "attach file" button is dead)

You can also set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs to -1 to disable the timeout.

I have the latest plugins and firefox but it still says 'adobe flash plugin has crashed' How do i fix this?

Every time I go on YouTube, it comes up with: 'adobe flash plugin has crashed'. I have tried refreshing and restarting my laptop, I have also got all the latest flash and Firefox, but it still won't work.

I'd start with disabling Hardware Acceleration, as described in the video troubleshooting guide below:
Video playback issues
If that solves the problem, make sure that your graphics drivers are current.
If it *still* happens with current drivers, please give us detailed information on the graphics card and driver, so that we can disable hardware acceleration on this configuration and start a conversation with the appropriate vendor.
The best way to get this information is to do the following (on Windows):
Open a command prompt
Type: dxdiag
Hit Enter
This should launch the DirectX Diagnostic Tool
Click Save All Information (or whatever that save button says).

"Adobe flash plugin has crashed" error. Help?

I have tried a bunch of fixes I found searching through the web, but nothing so far has worked. I thought you fine fellow Apple folks might know what the heck is going on. After the last update, I started getting the error message "Adobe flash plugin has crashed" in both Firefox and Safari (both updated fully). I'm running Snow Leopard on a Mac Pro. Using latestet version of the Flash plugin. And, I have uninstalled and installed again per Adobe's website... not helpful, still having the issue.
Funny thing is, I have all the same software, updgrades, etc. on my Macbook Pro, and the Flash plugin works fine. Can anyone help me find out what might be causing this issue?

I cannot recall ever being this frustrated with my Mac and I have been faithfully using Mac for 20+ years!!
I am currently using a Macbook Pro 2.3 Ghz intel Core i7 4GB RAM Mac OSX 10.7.5
Problems encountered:
Very slow browsers chrome, safari, firefox - have tried them all in hopes of finding one that works with no luck!!
Adobe Flash crash error codes all the time. I receive update request links from all three browsers asking me to update adobe flash software which I have done repeatedly numerous times with absolutely no success, just a waste of time and lots of frustration.
Spinning rainbow sprocket is a common thing on my macbook, drives me insane!!
I found this thread and followed the instructions to go into "System Preferences, Flash Player, selecting the Advanced tab, and delete all browser data and settings." I then updated my Adobe Flash in my System Preferences, not the typical browser update method.
So far, this method appears to be working - will keep my fingers crossed!!!

The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed! Help please.

I can't load any flash content within Firefox. I instantly get the following error: "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed. Reload the page to try again.".
So far I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash, restarted my computer, and disabled hardware acceleration all to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, so scratch my last response. Disabling hardware acceleration through Firefox (orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available" ) did not work however step 3B did. Following your link, right clicking on the Flash logo and disabling hardware acceleration there has fixed my issue.
Thanks!

What operating system? What browser? What Flash Player version?

Problem with Adobe Flash (plugin has crashed). Have updated, uninstalled etc.

Recently I keep getting the Adobel Flash plugin has crashed message. Not aware I have changed any programs or software.
I have ensured every thing in uptodate. Tried uninstalling and re-downloading. No success.
Read your help page.
Are there suitable alternatives to Adobe or is this limited by the websites that use Adobe?

I am adding screen shot of Yahoo messenger to my previous question. Though it is in Japanese but there is a little English too which will be helpful to those who could not read Japanese.

Your installed plugins list shows two different versions of Flash. Use the Adobe uninstaller program to entirely remove Flash and then install the latest version.

The Adobe Flash Plugin has Crashed. Submission Failed.

The Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed. Submission failed. I tried to copy the Send Report link and send the report using another browser, but there was no way to copy it, since that option was not given. The Plugin was for a John Deere add in the following web page:http://www.accuweather.com/blogs/news/story/34316/exploding-thunderstorm-cause-u.asp
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== When there are ads using the Adobe Flash pugin. It has also happend with wunderground.com

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins

I often get the message "The Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed / Reload the page to try again" but the plugin check page does not list Adobe Flash.

The plugin check page does list something called 'Shockwave Flash." I went to the Adobe site and downloaded and installed the latest version of Adobe Flash but it still does not show up on the plugin check page. I don't see how Adobe Flash can be crashing in Firefox when Firefox doesn't even know that it's installed.

Your System Details List shows the Shockwave Flash 12.0 r0 plugin as installed, so you appear to have the Flash plugin installed.
You can check the version of the current Flash player here:
*http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
*http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
What is the current setting for the Flash plugin on Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Why does Adobe not resolve this problem at installation or upgrade time????
