Have W7 64bit, Firefox 7.01 and Flash Player 11 but unable to play videos in BBC News channel although can use BBCi and Win Internet Explorer works with both.

Have looked at Flash Settings but not able to find solution. Tried reverting to Firefox v.6.02 but this did not resolve the problem.

Try version 4.01 works great with flash for me at least

I have been having crash issues with v 6 and 7 of Firefox. Make sure you update to latest version of adobe as well

I tried Firefox 4.0, and it doesn't work with Yahoo. Until you find a fix, I have to stay with 3.6

For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4.0, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

Flash player 11.3.300.257 plays video too fast

Hi
I have just updated to the lastest version of flashplayer 11.3.300.257. Now, all vidoes in youtube and bbc iplayer etc that use flashplayer run very fast and without sound (just like fast forwarding x4).
I am on Windows Vista Business Edition (all updates included)
Browser is IE9.
I have tried a clean reinstall of flash player a number of times but same issue.
I have cleared caches and deleted all history etc via the advanced section of the software.
I have also removed the hardware acceleration. Nothing has helped.
However, if i run in "safe mode" it seems to run at the correct speed. I have uninstalled all recent software updates (such as skype) but still the issue remains. Is it likely to be a conflict issue?
I have tried to install a previous version of flashplayer from the archives page but get an error message 1722.
Can anyone help?
Nigel

For my reference, here's the bug:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3217331 - Flash player 11.3.300.257 plays video too fast
In order to get traction on this, they're going to need to be able to reproduce it.
It would be great if you could do two things:
- Provide direct links to a couple videos that reproduce this problem.
If they're on different sites, and based in the US, even better. (Geographic restrictions make it hard to troubleshoot. We can VPN, but that can mask/introduce network and timing problems.)
- Provide the output of dxdiag.exe
Go to Start > Run > and type "debugdiag" no qoutes, then hit [Enter]
Save the output and attach it to the bug above.

Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player, some sites do not play video

Hi,
Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player and active x from adobe.com, some sites do not play the video. A request box, install the plug in comes. When i click it, it again tries to install the same version of adobe, which i have already downloaded. it is only for some sites.
May be it is because, it is site problem? How to overcome it

ActiveX is part of the Windows operating system. Plus the ActiveX version of Adobe Flash is for Internet Explorer. Other browsers need their own version of Flash' Firefox needs the Plugin version of Flash.
If you go to the Adobe website to download Flash while using Firefox, Adobe will provide the correct version of Flash automatically. Just make sure you de-select any other programs that Adobe may want to stick you with before you actually download Flash. Then close Firefox and run the Adobe Flash installer.

After trying all procedures I can find in Flash Player Help I still cannot play videos on Firefox, I

I am running Windows 7 64-bit and have tried every procedure I can find, and I still cannot get video on any browser.

Do you mean you can not play video but you can play game or other Flash contents?
What about version info page which is extremely simple Flash contents?

Flash Player requires "Kick start" to play video contents

Am presently Flash Player 11.5.502.146 on Windows 7 64 Bit with Firefox 18.0.1.
I have been having a rather odd occurence. When I go to youtube.com and select a video, all I get is a black box with no controls and nothing happens. (This also happens on other sites such as CBSSports.com) If I right click on said black box, it just says "About Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.146" which obviously takes me to the Aodobe websight.
Here is the strange part: If I start a video on Facebook, it runs, even if I opt to open it up on youtube. Then if I select another video or close and reopen the browser, we are back to the black box. It is almost as if the other website "kick start" the player.
Another odd thing I noticed is that when working with the adobe sites troubleshooting tools (like detecting versions etc) when ever there was supposed to be a box generated from the Adobe sight with some controls or options, it would never appear. I also tried all of the solutions suggested here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html#main_5__Delete_all _Flash_Player_browsing_data to no avail.
I have installed 11.6 beta as well as Adobe Shockwave, tried switching to IE9 as well as Chrome with no resolution.

Not sure it is the "Total Defense" Program as I tried to repeat my earlier results (too bad I did not have the forsight to write down which processes I was stopping) and started with all CA/Total Defencse processes I could locate, logging off and into my son's profile(as this is logging off seemed to be a factor in my earlier success) but have been unable to isolate what service/process is the culprit. I also tried uninstalling Itunes and all the other stuff that came with it (such as Bonjour and Apple Mobile EDevice support) as this was installed around the time this issue started but again no luck. Just this morning I had the task manager open and went to youtube and it showed 2 flashplayer related processes were running but still got the "movie not loaded" message with the right click.
I am going to install an app called Process explorer which from what I gather, gives more details than taks manager and see if that helps in my endevour.
Thanks again for your time!

Flash Player loads but doesn't play

I just recently got a new computer, one running Vista
Premium. For the first few days after I installed flash player, it
worked perfectly in whichever browser I used. However, starting
yesterday, whenever a web page has flash on it, the browser crashes
after it has loaded. The same thing happens on IE, firefox, and
opera, all of which are the lastest versions. I've tried
reinstalling flash player, but to no avail. Hopefully, I'll be able
to find some reason for this here. =\
Edit:
Well, I feel stupid. I didn't restart the computer after
reinstalling flash player. Although, I'm not sure why it stopped
working in the first place. But anyways, everything seems to be
working fine now.

Hi dhessi,
Glad to hear that your issue was resolved. Flash Player does
not normally require you to reboot your machine; however Vista does
require that IE 7 is restarted after installation of Flash Player.
For more information please see: After installing Flash
Player, Windows Vista initiates Protected Mode for Flash content

SpryTabbedPanel: Flash player in tabs do not play video streams

Note: I am a complete noob (no experience with Javascript and rudimentary experience with htlm/css). Please be patient (I hope that this is the correct forum for this) and know that I am appreciative of any help or solution that anyone can provide.
Using Dreamweaver CS4 on Mac OS 10.5.8
We recently switched all of our streaming servers from Windows Media (good riddance) to Flash Media Server 3.5 (now getting awesome H.264 quality in comparison).
I was asked to re-design this webpage with the aim of re-organizing the content so that it is more accessible:
http://www.librarymedia.net/VideoGallery.html
We used Adobe's test page for our first page:
http://www.librarymedia.net/flash/videoplayer.html?source=rtmp://63.116.232.4/live/livestr eam&type=live&idx=10
This was meant as a temporary page to get us started, and as you can see, it needs work but at least it works.
I've been working the the final version of this page. My boss wants a tabbed web page with links to our video streams (tab for each category of streams).
This is what I have so far:
http://www.librarymedia.net/Flash2/videoplayer2.html?source=rtmp://63.116.232.4/live/lives tream&type=live&idx=10
I realize that I had several options before building this. One, I could have made a separate page for each tab and linked them with a tab menu. In hindsight, this might have been a better option since I could have just copied the working page that we already have for each tab. Or I could have done what I have tried to do: to use Dreamweaver's SpryTabbedPanel to make the tabs and insert a Flash player with links into each tab.
The problem:
1. The streams do not play. The player says "initializing" and then "please enter a stream name and play". Please note that I used SpryURLutils to get each link to open in the appropriate tab.
2. After reading about the benefits of external vs. inline javascript, I took all of the inline javascript that was contained in Adobe's sample page and placed it in an external file. I tried placing the javascript back into the source code (inline), but this did not fix the problem. I guess there is a Javascript problem or I need extra Javascript code to get this to work. The javascript code is below. Use view source in your web browser to see source code. Please let me know if I need to provide more information.
Thanks.

>There is a sample application of the code included with the zip file which shows how to implement it.
The sample doesn't really tell me what I need to do to the code to make it work (I do not know javascript), and unfortunately, I have not found any helpful instructions/documentation online. You've given me the answer, I just don't know enough to implement it. This is what I've done:
1. Placed the FAVideo.js file in my site folder and linked it to the page: <script src="FAVideo.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
2. I added the following code (taken from the SimpleDemo.html example inside the FAVideo folder). My comments in bold. Page at
http://www.librarymedia.net/Flash2/videoplayer2.html?source=rtmp://63.116.232.6/vod/mp4:Ol ympics2010_640x480.mov
         <! To the <body> section:-->
<body onLoad="">
    <div id="divOne"></div>
<!-Do I have to place the entire page within the "divOne" div (or just the section containing the tabs) in order for the javascript to work?-->
         <!-In the <head> section: -->
   <script type="text/javascript">
        playerOne = new FAVideo("divOne", "TabbedPanels1", "demo_video.flv",0,0,{ autoLoad:true, autoPlay:true });
    </script>
<!- I noticed that the body code added a div id called "divOne", so I added the "TabbedPanels1" div id to the above code thinking that this would apply the javascript code to all of the tabs. Dreamweaver adds <div id="TabbedPanels1" class="TabbedPanels"> to the page when you insert the tabbed menu, so I'm thinking the javascript has to point to either one of those for it to work. The "demo_video.flv",0,0 code is probably unneccesary, right? As you can see, I'm completely clueless. -->
    <script>
        playerOne.addEventListener("playheadUpdate",this,myHandler);
        playerOne.removeEventListener("playheadUpdate",this,myHandler);
        function myHandler() {
            //alert("eh");

Have OMD EM5, need Camera Raw and PS Elements that work with this camer

I've been using PS Elements 9 on a MAC. Can't use RAW. Know I need a plug-in. If I upgrade to PS 12, how do I find out what Camera Raw I need? What is compatible with this camera (OMD EM5)?

Yes, you need at least PSE 11, but PSE 12 should work just fine. Download the trial and check it out.
Here's a list of the minimum versions of ACR for each camera model:

PSE 12 comes with ACR 8 and can be updated to 8.5.

Adobe flash player installs but doesn't play

I have installed (uninstalled-reinstalled) AFP. The set up
screen says that it installed correctle, the little flassh played
demo plays, but when I go to a site that requires the use of AFP,
it says that I need to install the player. I have followed Adobes
suggestion of checking IE settings but still the same issue. Any
suggestions?

I'm having the same problem & have spent far too much
time trying to figure this out. Help

Can't connect to any website through Firefox (Connecting...), but Internet Explorer works.

I have had on and off problems with Firefox working, but up until now, restarting the computer solved the problem. Now it won't load any website for anything...it keeps circulating with "Connecting...". Internet Explorer works just fine and the internet is working with all other devices, the only thing I can find that may be impacting is that the internet has no IPv6 access (I have no clue though and the box is checked). I have tried all of the advice I have found on other similar posts such as disabling the IPv6 and the Prefetch through 'about:config', I restarted the computer multiple times, unplugged the router, checked the firewall and removed and re-added Firefox, cleared the cookies and cache, reinstalled Firefox, uninstalled Chrome.
Nothing seems to be getting me any closer to having Firefox up and connecting again.
As a side note, I only have been having those on and off problems, and this current problem, while connected to my home internet--other connections have had no problems. Also, I am using Norton Antivirus which is up to date and showing no problems at present.
Any ideas on how to fix?

Have you flushed the dns cache on the computer recently? It could be that it has stored the unsuccessful message.

With Firefox 5, I cannot watch videos on any site. Yes I updated Flash. I have reverted to Firefox 3.6 and everything is working fine.

Videos just appear blank on any site that I've gone to. Also, Grooveshark tells me that there is a problem resolving the host. Also, on average pages take about 15 seconds to load which is much longer than normal. I have a 20 MBps connection, and pages load in about 2 seconds using Chrome. Firefox 3.6 works fine.

As posted above, Firefox versions 4 and later require a Mac with an Intel processor and no longer run on a Mac with a PowerPC processor.<br />
It says recommended, but it is now a requirement to have an Intel processor.

I think it is from 2006

Hello,
10.5.8 is the highest OSX it can run.
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash.
SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...

Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.

I am sick and tired of Firefox crashing from Adobe Flash player. All support statements say to reinstall and that doesnt solve the problem!

I am sick and tired of your Firefox not supporting Adobe Flash player. Windows explorer no problem it works fine. All of your support statements tell me to reinstall and I've tried that more than once and nothing improves! It is slowing up my computer, and I have a windows folder with 4.8Mb of auto generated crash messages!

I can't access the internet with Firefox on my computer (Windows 7 PC). I have used Firefox as my browser for 1 year but 5 days ago it stopped working even though Internet Explorer worked fine. I can't solve the problem and need some help.Randy Brown

Dear Mozilla,
I am having some difficulty accessing the internet with Firefox on one of my PC computers. I normally use Mozilla Firefox as my web browser and google is my homepage and gmail is my email system. The operating system is Windows 7. For over a year this system worked perfectly but a few days ago it stopped working. When I launch Firefox now I get the message that that website (www.google.com) is unavailable. In fact, I can’t access any website and I am blocked from the internet entirely within Firefox. My internet connection is fine because Internet Explorer works fine. I can access google and any other website within that web browser. I have investigated all the security issue I can manage and found no smoking gun. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox to no avail. Is Windows 7 compromising the effectiveness of Firefox? Any suggestions or other assistance you can offer would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Randy Brown

You only have to clone your mac when using certain cable modem. You don't clone your mac when using dsl.
