Flashplayer crashing in firefox

Why is my flash player constantly crashing in firefox. I have the most updated one download and am using firefox as my browser and am running windows 7..........please help, i cant play any games and it is driving me crazy!

I have been having the same problem like yours and I just followed the instructions given to you and this is how I got through: to follow the first line of instructions : click 'start' then click 'run' ( usually under the 'search' command on startscreen).
Then a little command window opens on the lower left corner of your screen, above where start button is; type in there what's on the first line of instr. "c:\..."  and  click 'ok', which opens up a list of  flash files where you find
"mms.cfg" .  Now right click on your mouse and choose "open with" command and there choose 'note pad';  a page opens with 2 lines on top and you type in what was given in the help response , ie "ProtectedMode=1"
I hope this will help solve both our problems. It sounds reasonable.

  • Flashplayer crashes in Firefox

    My Adobe Flashplayer keeps crashing constanly whenever I access a website with any video player running.  I'm running Firefox 14.0.1 and Adobe Flashplayer 11.3.300.271.  I am running Windows 7, 64 bit system and AVG as my antivirus.
    Any solutions?

    Follow the instructions here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1343084
    That will do a COMPLETE "clean install".
    After that, if it still stops, it's in your connection.

  • Adobe Flash player 16.0.0.235 crashes on Firefox 34.0.5, Windows 7

    I recently installed Adobe Flash player 16.0.0.235 and now it always crashes wherever I try to watch a video on Firefox 34.0.5 on Windows 7. I tried all the troubleshooting advice from Firefox (checking that Flash is installed properly, checking to see that Flash isn't disabled, restoring default settings, disabling hardware acceleration, ect) and nothing has worked. Here are my last 5 crash reports:

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    It appears that you have multiple versions of the Flashplayer installed on Firefox. Please remove all versions of Flashplayer from your computer and install the latest version from [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ here].

    Flash Plug in is crashing after recent upgrade. I tried uninstalling, and reinstalling, still crashing. Firefox and Plug-in are current. What else can I do?

    What I suggest you do here is to use Adobe's uninstaller tool to uninstall Flash first of all: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then reboot, go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and reinstall it.
    I notice too that you have an outdated version of Shockwave For Director. You can update that via http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/

  • Adobe Flashplayer crashes once any video is started

    As of today, I cannot watch any videos because Adobe Flashplayer crashed upon beginning any video.
    I had nightly. Uninstalled it and then installed the regular firefox. Didn't help
    Started in Safe Mode. Didn't help
    Reinstalled Flash. Didn't help
    Installed slightly older version of Flash. Didn't help
    Even better yet, whenever I try to access trouble shooting information in firefox, the browser crashes every time without fail. I'll try to make a manual list of plugins and addons for you though.
    I'm writing this from Chrome right now. Videos work here
    Pic of error if there's any confusion

    Can you access Troubleshooting Information in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    Two ways to invoke the Safe Mode dialog:
    (1) If Firefox is running,
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    (2) If Firefox is not running, hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox
    In the small dialog that should appear, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any improvement?
    If so, before returning to normal mode, please disable Firefox's use of hardware acceleration for graphics. This feature works with most graphics card drivers, but driver updates sometimes reveal a severe compatibility problem.
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    This change takes effect after you exit and restart Firefox.

  • Flashplayer crashing

    I have tried to update all my Adobe products. When I go to play a game, it stalls and a minute or so later, tells me that Flashplayer has crashed. I click 'send crash report'. I've done this several times and even tried re-installing several times. Normally, I could fix this on my own. I have Windows 7 and use Firefox 6 or Google Chrome (updated recently, not sure of version). I have gone through my video/graphics cards and other accessories indicated on my computer and checked for updates. Everything is up to date. I'm at a loss as to what to do next.
    Deb

    Hi Deb,
    I'm sorry you're running into crashes here.  I'd like to help investigate further.  If you're crashing in Firefox, can you get me one or two Report ID's?  Here's what you need to do:
    In the Firefox Location bar, type about:crashes and hit Return. A page listing submitted crash reports will appear.
    Hold down the Ctrl key while you click on the latest crash under Report ID and choose Open Link in New Tab. A tab will open to a page on crash-stats.mozilla.com, saying that "Your report is being processed".  When it is finished processing, your report will load.
    Go back to the tab with your submitted crash reports and copy the long Report ID number for the latest crash (eg. The Report id starts with the string "bp-" as in this example: bp-6bf400e3-3b71-4717-9941-be6332110919)
    Please post back with the report ID's and I'll follow up internally with our Mozilla expert.
    If you're finding the crashes instead occur on Chrome let me know and I'll get you different steps we can take.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • 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?

  • Adobe Flash Player crashes on Firefox (NetSteam, Stratus)

    Flash Player version: 11,8,800,97 (last)
    OS: Windows 7
    Browser: Mozilla Firefox 22.0 (last)
    Problem: Adobe Flash Player crashes on Firefox, when runnig project with such elements like NetSteam, Stratus.
    When problem happen: Only when some streamed data is incoming, after random time. Time before crash can be 4 minutes, it also can be 2 minutes. Memory leaks or disk space usage didn't change and don't seem to be a reason. Problem happen when I was testing my voice chat together with few people. At one moment it crashed at few computers at the same time (which were using Firefox). Then we had luck with repeating this problem several times - simply by asking one of us to play any music into Microphone. Then Firefox Flash Player always crashing.
    Here you can see repeating of problem: http://youtu.be/BdkoQxloyDA
    It also show that it does not crashes if nobody is sending audio stream in created group, but it does when somebody is sending audio stream. In that video I'm repeating problem by myself, with help of one computer and 2 tabs of Flash Player. First is running in Chrome, second in Firefox. Player in Chrome is used to send system sound from speakers to peer group. Player in Firefox is listening and playing everything he hears (this is why I set it's volume to near 1).
    Here is .swf :
    http://www.plazmaburst2.com/vchat/vchat.swf?1375377116&l=ANY_LOGIN_NAME&g=b1a2e6f17f339b63 6382b2d6cccadb21
    It's very simplified voice chat which only displays streams which are being heared. It's adding " is talking" when stream is sending data. "g" parameter is a group name, I think you can choose any, but tests were made with this one.
    Hope it helps. If you will need .fla file - just tell me.

    Your issue is distinct from the original poster's issue about a crash on Mac.  I've branched this out to a new thread so that we're not confusing everyone.
    Firefox on Win8 isn't very stable.  We're collaborating with Mozilla on improvements, and my test results with the daily development builds are really promising, but it will be a few more weeks before they actually make it to production releases.
    In the meantime, you're way better off using IE or Chrome. 

  • Trying to find out which line of AS2 code is causing flash player crash in firefox & chrome browser

    Hello,
    I have a flash movie (AS2) created for the website visitors' registration and this flash movie is longer in size than the browser's window height so that site visitors need to browse down using browser's vertical scroll bar to see all of the contents in the flash movie.
    When users click the submit button in the flash movie then
    Firstly, the AS2 code attached to the      on(release){    event scrolls the html page back to the top (because the user must have scrolled down to view the flash movie content at the bottom of the page and I want the html page to go back to the top of the page)
    getURL("javascript:window.scroll(0,0)");    // this is the AS2 code I have used for scrolling the page back to the top. I suspect this code is causing the flash player crash in firefox and google chrome
    and also tells the _root of the flash movie to go to and stop at a frame named "StartEnteringData".
    _root.gotoAndStop("StartEnteringData")     //making the _root of the movie to go to the "StartEnteringData" frame
    this.gotoAndStop("Start")                                  //making this movieclip which contains the registation form to go to the first blank frame labelled "Start"
    The "StartEnteringData" frame on the _root of the flash movie has AS2 code for entering the registration data to the database by using loadVariablesNum( ... )
    Here's my question.
    Almost everytime the user/visitor click the Submit button, the firefox browser users and google chrome browswer users see the Flash Player CRASH...
    This doesn't happen often with the website visitors using MS Internet Explorer.
    I have read some www articles (by searching google) saying that Adobe Flash Player in Firefox and Chrome browsers crash a lot.
    But, for my flash movie, everytime the visitor clicks the submit button, flash player crashes. Therefore, I guess it is the AS2 code that I'm using (associated with the on(release) event of the submit button) is causing the flash player crash rather then the flash player compatibility with Firefox and Chrome browsers.
    So, someone please tell me what's causing the flash player crash.
    Is there a better code to make a web page to go back to the top?
    I am also using the codes shown below on the first keyframe of the main movie. (_root)
    //For custom flash right click menu:
    var myMenu_cm:ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.zoom = true;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.quality = false;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.print = false;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.save = false;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.loop = false;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.rewind = false;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.play = false;
    myMenu_cm.builtInItems.forward_back = false;
    _root.menu = myMenu_cm;
    //For tiling the flash movie background with bitmap picture
    import flash.display.BitmapData;
    var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("pattern");
    this.beginBitmapFill(tile);
    this.lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
    this.lineTo(Stage.width, Stage.height);
    this.lineTo(0, Stage.height);
    this.lineTo(0, 0);
    this.endFill();

    by repeatedly commenting out lines of code you suspect are causing the crush and retesting you should be able to pinpoint the problem.

  • Flash Player crashing in Firefox

    System is:
    MacBook Pro
    OS X 10.10.2 (14C1514)
    Firefox 37.0.1
    Flash Player 17.0.0.134
    Any web site with flash video causes the beach ball spinner, firefox freezes, flash then crashes and firefox unfreezes. This has been happening through different versions of ff and fp. I have turned off hardware acceleration and flash protected mode - no change. When will this be fixed? As is, Flash Player is useless, I have disabled it.
    Ron Halstead

    ProtectedMode is a Windows-only feature, so that doesn't change anything.  If it's happening in software mode, then it's not related to the GPU (Mac configs are pretty constrained, so that's not typically the deal anyway).
    You might want to run Disk First Aid and repair both the filesystem and filesystem permissions (sometimes verify filesystem permissions will return clean, then repair will fix a bunch of issues). 
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203176
    Caveat: Sometimes corrupted software is an early indicator that your disk is going bad.  It's wise to ensure that you have current working backups, especially if you have anything important on the machine.  Checking the disk for problems is a relatively safe operation, but will also give the disk a workout.  If it's on it's way out, you may not get a lot of additional warning.
    At that point, go ahead and blow away all of Flash Player's data files by going to:
    Control Panel > Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All
    If you're *still* having problems, let's try a clean install:

  • 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.

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

  • Mountain lion crashes, with firefox as well

    Hi,
    having seen others having problems with crashing Mountain Lion, my issue seems to be slightly different. I am running 10.8.3, so the alleged Safari 6 issue should have been fixed already. However, Mountain Lion keeps on crashing horrendously often in Safari (which I now have stopped using), but, annoyingly, it also crashes in Firefox (version 19.0.2), even if not as often (but still often enough to be incredibly irritating). The screen just goes black without any warning in the middle of using a website. Initially, I thought it was an issue with Flash (fully updated as is Java), but the problem persists even on websites with no videos running.
    Would really appreciate help on this.
    NM

    If you are having the same problem with multiple browsers, then the problem is probably something common to both browsers. Like something in your internet plugin folders, which are /Library/Internet Plugins and ~/Library/Internet Plugins. You could remove the plugins and see if the problem is fixed. Here is a reference:   Safari 6 (OS X Mountain Lion): If you need to remove a plug-in
    if that doesn't work, I suppose I'd try some routine maintenance/troubleshooting maneuvers, like a safe boot, a test user account, repairing permissions, and repairing my hard disk.
