I can only use Flash Player in one tab at a time, only on Firefox.

Recently, when I downloaded the new Flash Player, I can only use flash player in one tab at a time. This is only in firefox. I'll open youtube, and the visual and sound both play perfectly. I open up a new tab, begin using a flash website in that tab, and the youtube sound is quiet, only the visual continues to play. I need to multitask with flash sometimes, and this is a big problem for me. Help!

By default, Flash 11.3 and higher will spin up a lot of distinct processes. You should be able to get quite a cacophony going.
Have you ever done any troubleshooting that involves changing how Firefox works with plugin-container.exe or the Flash player's protected mode?
Often it is helpful to disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash:
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
Unrelated, but you can remove the Java Console extensions unless you are a Java developer (and even then, you probably don't need the old ones):
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category

  • Can I use Flash Player plugin version 11.2.202.228 with my Firefox ESR 10.0.7 instead of the most current Flash Player plugin?

    I am trying the Tor web browser software pack and it comes with Firefox ESR 10.0.7.
    Right now, I'm trying to install a Flash Player plugin because it doesn't have one in this Firefox ESR 10.0.7 already, or this browser just doesn't see the slightly older Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin that I already have already installed on this machine.
    '''Is there a way to make this Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser see the Flash Player plugin 11.2.202.228 that I already have installed on this machine without installing the newest, possibly problematic Flash Player plugin?'''
    I already have the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin installed on this machine, a PC with Windows 7 ULT, because the most current versions of the Flash Player plugin had some problems and they wouldn't allow Flash content to play at all, so I reverted back to a slightly older version of the Flash Player that was reliable, crash free, and most importantly, it works.
    But when I try to play any Flash content in this Tor-Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser it tells me I don't have a Flash Player on this machine, or installed as a browser plugin or add-on, and it wants me to install the most current Flash Player on this machine, which I DO NOT want to do for the reasons I stated above.
    My other Firefox browser, along with Google's newest Chrome browser and a newer version of the Safari browser for Windows, plus an older Internet Explorer 8, all WORK JUST FINE with the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 that I have installed on this computer and Google Chrome and Safari didn't even require having newer Flash Player plugins installed at all... they just see the Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin that I already have on this machine and they play all Flash content perfectly.
    So can I just make this Tor-Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser see the existing Flash Player 11.2.202.228 plugin that I already have on this machine?... and if so, how do I do that?
    Thanks for any help.
    Also, I'm not able to find an actual community help forum for Tor, even via their "Torproject.org" website... is there one?
    Thanks,
    numetro

    You should actually be using Flash 10.3 (11.2 is insecure).[[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox#w_solution-2-downgrade-flash|Solution 2: Downgrade Flash]].
    Also, is there a reason you are using Firefox ESR? It's mean for organizations, and doesn't include all the security and stability fixes that Firefox latest (15.0.1) has.

  • I can't use Flash Player

    Hi,
    I have tried just about every technique mentioned here to use Flash Player on my machine (trial version) and nothing has worked.  I was going to use it on my site:
    Best Watches For Men 2012 but i had to give up and go with a cookie cutter theme.
    I am running Windows 7(junk!) 64 bit on a brand spanking new Presario with ample memory.  Any suggestions?

    Saw your tags are iPad and video, think maybe you want to play the flash videos, sites and player?
    Well, for sites flash support, as said, now many sites support HTML5, and HTML5 is fully supported on iPad, so don't worry about.
    For videos playing and watching, Air video is one of the app can do some help, that can convert videos. Besides, to YouTube video, you could use YouTube app or download the YouTube with a Free YouTube downloader such as iFunia for offline watching.

  • Can we use Flash Player 11 abilities through Flex SDK 4.5.1?

    Hi All
    As you know BitmapData has some limitation for image size and resolution in Flash Player 10 (maximum resolution is 8192) and for Flash Player version 11 and later, Adobe fixed this limitation and depends on OS we can have all type of huge resolutions in BitmapData.
    But my problem is now I'm using Flex SDK 4.5.1 which base Flash Player is 10.2.159.1.
    So is there any possibility to use this benefit of Flash Player 11 with my current Flex SDK with implementing a restriction based on Flash version with something like Capabilities.version or not?
    Thanks in advance

    Tanx, But I must keep my current version of Flash Player and I'm not able to change swf-version or target-player through compiler settings arguments or etc... I just need these feature for BitmapData.
    Can I use something like this to check if my object has new methods of Flash Player or not:
    if(myInstance.hasOwnProperty("newMethodInFlashEleven")) myInstance[newMethodInFlashEleven]();
    Is there any new method for BitmpaData class in Flash player 11, to check it based on that?!

  • The new version of fire fox keeps crashing my entire computer if i pull down the scroll bar to fast and when using sites that use flash player my other browsers work fine its only started happening since it updated to 3.6.10

    Firefox keeps crashing my entire computer if i pull down the scroll bar too fast or go to websites that use flashplayer and sometimes for no reason at all. My other browsers work fine and firefox did till the update.

    There has been a security update of the Flash Player and the current version is 10.1 r85 , so you are two versions behind (previous was 10.1 r82).

  • Can you use multiple TOCs in one project at different times?

    I am new to RoboHelp and I have version 11. The premise is that I have inserted a map of the United States and I have placed and image map for each state to direct them to the individual state's topic I have created. But I want to customize each state's table of contents. Is that possible? If so how is it done? Any help is much appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Can we step back and clarify what you mean by customising each state's TOC?
    The image map takes the user to a topic for that state. If the project is set to keep the topics synchronised to their position in the TOC, the user will see what you have set up in that states chapter.
    What is it that you want to happen that is not provided by that?

  • 3D using Flash Player 10

    Hi All,
    I want to render the RSS feeds on a page using 3D effects. How can I use Flash Player 10 for that? I want to render feeds exactly following way :
    This is very far feed
    This feeds is a bit far.
    This is the nearest feed.
    This is not too far.
    This is too far
    Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am using Flash CS4 & ActionScript 3.0.
    Thank you,

    you can use scaling or textformat differences in individual (one for each line) textfields for that effect or you can use the displacementmap filter on a single textfield.  using the displacementmap filter is more difficult.
