I am running v.12 over Win v.7 on an i7 PC. The Adobe Flash plug-in keeps hogging the CPU excessively. Is there a known fix please?

I find the browser slows to a crawl and all channels of my i7 CPU are indicating high loading. So I shut down the Flash plug-in via Task Manager to restore system usability.
Is there any fix other than removing Adobe Flash - or switching to an alternate browser?
Thanks

What version of Flash do you have installed?
Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. You can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections.

Adobe Flash Plug In keeps crashing, extension runs slowly and have to abort script on Pandora Radio website.

Adobe Flash Player 10.1.82.76. Signature : hang | mozilla::plugins::PPluginInstanceParent::CallNPP_Destroy(short*). Plug In regularly crashes AND I get Error message "Script in this movie causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive.Do you want to abort the script?" Attempts to download plug in update get Adobe Download Manager but no resolution to problem. Should I disable hang protection? Uninstall DLM?

When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

I tried using the downloaded update. It still didn't work but at least I did not have to restart my computer. The message was a little different too: "The installation failed. The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."

Hi...
For videos. Uninstall the current Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Quit then relaunch Safari. From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Try a video.
All online bank statments are in PDF format.
Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
Now try a bank statement.

Win 8.1 PRO: Internet Explorer and integrated Adobe Flash Player no hardware acceleration on GMA

HI, i have a little problem with your latest release.
I have make a total update of the system today (win 8.1 pro 23 March 2014) and i saw that hardware decoding is not working on Internet explorer (the option is not available in the adobe tool: right click\settings)
How can i resolve?
Using Adobe Plugin+an other browser resolve this bug but i want to use IE
Another question: is coming a new version optimized for low-end video card? i have a gma 500 GPU and the performance are sufficient
Have a nice day

is coming a new version optimized for low-end video card?
Not likely, since the trend is to move to higher performance cards and not the toher way around.
As to the inability to access settings, that's in your browser, most likely ActiveX controls blocking it. There are two options:
1. Disable ActiveX controls: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
2. Use the online settings manager: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html <--Choose from the links on the left of the page.

I have updated Adobe flash plug-in but it continues to crash. It has crashed on me over 3 times in the last hour; why is that? Is it firefox?

I have updated Adobe flash plug-in more than once, but it continues to crash. It always does it right in the middle of a game or something I'm playing. Now, I pay real money to play these games so that I can purchase certain things, so this is now frustrating me. If it's firefox that keeps adobe crashing please let me know so that I can go back to using internet explorer.'''bold text'''

James j,
You have a different problem. Your screenshot shows "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed".

Displaying report in .pdf format while Running oracle reports over the web

I am running a report over the web via IE. I am suing .pdf

Any explanation for this bezarre behavior and any suggestions?
I will very much appreciate your help.

layout --> format --> select format you need (RTF/HTML/EXCEL/PDF)
2) in the request form (view->request) selecr the report you want to reprint in the Tools menu select print/republish, in the html page that pop up select output format you want, number of copies =1 submit

Possible Video Card problem while running 3d applications on wine

Hello guys, I got an issue with wine running 3d games/applications on the netbook and I thought this was the right place to post, since I'm pretty new to Arch, sorry if I messed something up with the sections.
Long story short: The applications/games I "tested" are Football Manager 2013 (via Steam) and Nintendo64 emulator. I didn't post on the wine forums since I'm pretty sure it's not a wine related problem, due to the fact that on my desktop both work without any problem with same wine and Arch configuration.
The netbook as an integrated Intel video, while the desktop has a nvidia card.
So I'm assuming there something wrong with the video card/drivers/configuration even if X runs good and seem configured correctly.
When I run those games with wine i get the following error and I get a black screen on wine:
@ swapchain.c / 338
fixme:d3d:context_check_fbo_status FBO status GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED (0x8cdd)
fixme:d3d:context_check_fbo_status Location SFLAG_INTEXTURE (0x40000).
fixme:d3d:context_check_fbo_status Color attachment 0: (0x1b8cf0) WINED3DFMT_B8G8R8X8_UNORM 1024x768 0 samples.
err:d3d:wined3d_debug_callback 0x1b75b8: "GL_INVALID_FRAMEBUFFER_OPERATION in glBlitFramebufferEXT(incomplete draw/read buffers)".
err:d3d:swapchain_blit >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GL_INVALID_FRAMEBUFFER_OPERATION (0x506) from Swapchain present blit(EXT_framebuffer_blit)
and the thing is Football Manager doesn't need much graphics, since games can be played even in 2d.
I searched for the error but I didn't find anything, that's why I'm asking!
Thanks in advance to everyone who'll help.

Hi Michael,
I'm glad iTunes is working now! If you want to locate iTunes plug-ins on your computer, you can find them in the following locations (you may not have the iTunes Plug-ins folder if you do not have plug-ins):
Mac:
/Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
One thing I also wanted to mention is that the "Users/username/Library" is hidden in Lion and Mountain Lion. You can access it using these steps:
OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?
The Library folder contains files used by OS X and your apps, including your personal fonts and preferences. The Library folder is hidden. If you need to open it, make sure you are in the Finder, hold down the Option key, and then choose Go > Library.
You can find the full article here:
OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?
