How can I stop receiving the "unresponsive plugin" warning?

I originally posted this question in the "Using Flash Player" forum on 9/19/13 but got no replies.
For the past 3 weeks, I keep receiving the following warning:
"Shockwave Flash may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the plugin now, or you can continue to see if the plugin will continue."
I know this question has been asked before, but none of the proposed solutions have worked for me.

I have installed and unistalled Firefox and Shockwave Flash many times. I am now on Firefox Version 24.
Shockwave Flash
File: NPSWF32_11_8_800_168.dll
Path: C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_11_8_800_168.dll
Version: 11.8.800.168
State: Enabled
Shockwave Flash 11.8 r800
I am disabled and my computer is my lifeline to the world. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For some reason, the number of "unresponsive plugin" warnings that I am receiving has remained at around 2-3 per day (for the past 4 days) versus the 15-20 per day that I had been receiving for the prior 3 weeks. Please bear in mind that I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and Adobe so many times, I am not sure what step helped remedy the problem.
BTW, I am running Windows Vista Home Basic (32 bit).
1. I went to the "Help" Menu in Firefox and clicked on "Troubleshooting Information." I then clicked on "Reset Firefox" in the upper right part of the screen.
2. I am now running Firefox Version 24.0.
3. I just now went back to the "Troubleshooting Information" tab and looked at the "Application Basics" section and clicked on "about:plugins" in the Enabled Plugins row. What I just discovered is that this section has changed!
Previously, I showed just Shockwave Flash (see my original post above.) I am now showing Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director.

4. I just went to my Control Panel and looked in "Programs and Features." I see that on 9/26/13, I installed Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0.
Whether this installation is what remedied the problem I do not know, but this is the only concrete evidence I can point to.
Finally, I think solving problems like this is made more difficult because in some instances Adobe uses the terms "Shockwave Player" and "Adobe Flash Player" interchangeably but in other instances seems to make a distinction.
I would like to thank all the people who replied to my post.

How can I stop receiving the support discussions etc.?

How can I stop being in the apple support community? Too many messages.

Hello Gwendolyn,
Frank's reply will sure solve your immediate problem but to answer your basic question ... you cannot remove yourself from the community (short of the hosts taking extreme action). Indeed, you should stay with us. Your current problem arose because you didn't have the benefit of Frank's advice. Now you have, you can control your reply count.

A lot of tabs loads and tells me there was a problem loading the page. How can I stop all the tabs loading because ist slows down Firefox.

When I open Firefox, a lot of tabs try to open at the same time. They all say Problem loading the page. It happened after I tried to download a owners manual for Harley Davidson motor cycles. How can I stop all but one tab from opening.

This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

How can i stop uploading the videos everytime i upload new photos?

Every time i plug in my phone and upload photos, it uploads all the videos, even old ones that are already downloaded. How can i stop that happening so it just uploads new videos? Thanks

This is dependent on the application you are using on your computer to import the photos. It is not a function of iTunes or the iPhone.
If you have a Mac and use iPhoto, you can specify that it not import photos that are already in your iPhoto library. This applies to both photos and videos.
Maybe instead of using the camera roll to store photos long term, you should consider syncing photos BACK to the phone from your photo library after you import them. Then you could delete them from the photo library when you import and keep better control of what lives on the phone.

Podcasts: how can I stop iTunes (the newest version) from displaying Podcasts in the list

... which are available but which I dont want to download, maybe because I already listened to them and deleted them?
My Podcasts list is now like 100 pages long, scrolling down and checking which podcast is actually new takes me about an hour...
Can I get the older iTunes version somewhere?
Thank you in advance!

Will that be fixed by updating to ACS 5.5 too? I've looked through the 5.5 release notes and can't work out if that bug would be resolved.
Thanks.

Slideshow: How can I stop on the last slide?

How can I get my slideshow to stop on the last slide? I set the slide to stop as the end action, but it goes to a black screen.
Anyone know how I can do this?

Slideshows slides are timed by default.
If you want the last slide to freeze, set it to Manual Advance in Slide properties. Then it will hold the last slide until the user hits the Next/Previous buttons (if they figure that out on their own, that is...you might want to post an instruction of some kind on the slide).

How can i stop receiving messages (SMS) On my noki...

I Want to stop receiving messages on my Nokia 1661 So no one can send me any kind of messages (Text.SMS.Multimedia)
Please Help!!!!!

I don't think that is possible, if it is you have a better chance of getting it done via your service provider than directly on your phone. Do you by any chance no any other mobile device that can do this?

When i open a pdf from any website to read , firefox automatically downloads to the hadr disk, safari does not do this. how can i stop all the clutter resulting from these downloads

as above ,

The text editor is the text area that you use on the webmail (Yahoo, Hotmail) website to create a new mail.
You can compare that with the ''Post new message'' text area that you use to create a new post on this forum.
Just above the text area that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons that allows some text formatting like Bold and Italic and can also include a button to make a clickable hyperlink.
Check the tooltip of each button by hovering with the mouse over each button.

How can I stop all the messages in a thread opening when I only click on 1 of them?

I click to open a mail and the others in the thread also open. I only want to open one at a time. [I'm new to Thunderbird, I used to use Outlook Express. ]

re I click to open a mail and the others in the thread also open.
when you select to read an email which is part of a thread:
A single click on email will display it in the Message Pane below.
A double click will open in a new tab or window if you have this up.
A right click and select 'Open in conversation' will open a new tab showing all received and your sent responses in that thread as a list, which if you switch off the threading and choose sort by Date, will reorder the list.
What do mean by open?
Are you saying that several tabs or windows open all at once?
OR
Do you mean that you can see the email response in the Message Pane but below that email there is some more From,Sent, To, Subject headers and email content, which is what the sender was replying about.
If yes, that's because the person 'Replied' or 'forwarded' the email, so that it is part of the email.

How can I stop getting the error message of firefox not being permitted into a website?

Okay so yesterday while on my school site trying to do work and access my course, this error message popped up saying either my internet connection is not good, which it is working, or that the website is busy but it wasn't so it had to be with my firewall and firefox. So I went to firefox website to see if I can fix it, I did what they said to do and to remove firefox from the list of programs I'm allowing in and then to allow it back in. And it didn't work. So i updated firefox and it worked perfectly.
Until today, I tried to access my course and it popped up with the same message. So I tried to do what I did yesterday with removing it from the list and allowing it back in but it didn't work. And firefox is up to date so I honestly don't know what else to do. Can you help?

Sounds like you were 'fixing' the firewall for Firefox access. If Firefox is working everywhere except your school website, I doubt if your issue is with the firewall.
Please provide a screenshot of that error message.

It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
Then use the '''Browse ....''' button below the '''''Post a Reply''''' text box to upload the screenshot.
