You can try basic steps like these in case of issues with web pages:
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

Keep getting "blocked plug-ins for Adobe Flash despite installing new version

Keep getting "blocked plug-ins for Adobe Flash despite installing new version

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5655?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US which also covers ‘blocked plug-in’.

All plug-ins and Adobe add-ons gone after this last update! I want them back!

I have 4 critical Topaz plug-ins and several Adobe add-ons that make my workflow so much easier but after this last update they've disappeared. I found the Adobe AO's briefly in 'Extensions' and Features needed an update, I did and then it disappeared! I restarted and now 'Extensions' has NOTHING in it! I want my stuff back! How do I do this?

Thanks! I did redownload them and everything works again. AND my Adobe add-ons suddenly reappeared too! Thanks!

Manual update for plug ins and extensions not working

I've just noticed that when I attempt to manually check for updates either in plug ins and/or extensions from the gear symbol drop down screen that I get the drop down screen, but, the check for updates function does not work. It just sits there with nothing happening. I have to close the screen to get out of that function. Anybody know anything about this?

Thanks you for your comments. I would mention that this problem just started with the update to FF 37.0.4 I tried restarting FF in safe mode with no effect on the above mentioned problem. Any other thoughts?

Since I've upgraded my Foxfire and Adobe Flash it keeps crashing when I try playing Treasure Island in Facebook. Should I uninstall both and start again?

Ive upgraded Foxfire and Adobe Flash and since upgraded all it's been doing is crashing. I send a crash report and try again with the same result. This has been going on for many days...help

I found the solution here, it's really works!
I'm glad I found this site.

FCPX cannot validate Ilok plug ins and crashes

FCPX can't validate the plug ins that are authorised on my Ilok. As a consequence when I go to access any of the standard effects in a project it crashes FCPX. I then have to boot by trashing the pref's and I can't access any effects at all.
Any ideas?

The solution is simple but but you might not like it ...
FCP is Audio Unit aware, and your Waves plug-ins are Audio Units and so are being loaded by FCP.
The only way to stop this from happening is to move the offending plug-ins out of the /Library/Audio/Plug-ins directory before you launch FCP ... of course, this then means you need to move them back in again before you use Pro Tools ... not too great :/
Manually, you could simplify this by creating shortcuts (aliases) to the folders on the desktop, so it would be easy to drag and drop between the two.
Or, if you're that way inclined, you could create an Automator action or AppleScript to do it for you.
Perhaps easiest would be to create two separate user accounts, one you use for Pro Tools and one for FCP. Install the Waves plugins in the Pro Tools user's ~/Library/Audio/Plug-ins folder, rather than the global one. Then just use Fast User Switching to switch environments.
Hope it helps
Andy
EDIT: Oh heck look --> http://www.audiofile-engineering.com/audiounitmanager/ this may be by far the better solution for simply switching plugin sets, you just need to create a separate set for FCP and Pro Tools, or just switch between None and All. Gotta be worth checking out as its free! Everybody loves free

Firefox and Adobe Flash unsafe operation crash

I have a bunch of saved htm pages from myspace. Everytime I open them a box pops up saying Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. So and So is trying to communicate with internet enabled location. I have to keep clicking away the box otherwise if I do anything in the browser it will freeze it. Anyway to fix this problem so I can read through the pages in peace?

Yes there is an end in sight!

Anyone have any idea what to dow hen the browser just freezes All the time? I updated the plug ins and stuff like that jut very annoying

During regular browsing and normal activity Firefox freezes and crashes Happens all the time. Everything is up to date and i belive the lug ins are also current. not sure what the issue is.

Mozilla have pathetic support, they suggest you reboot Firefox. That's great advice when you may be doing some major work and you lose all the sites you are working across. Their CEO needs slapping, no customer support.

I updated my MacBook last night, including Firefox and Adobe Flash. Now I can't play games on Facebook.

If the error occurred during the update you need to redo the update, as it corrupted something on your phone. Knowledge Base article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275 says:
Error 1004 and 1013: This error may be the result of the connection to gs.apple.com being blocked, redirected, or interrupted. Adjust your hosts file or security software to ensure that connections to gs.apple.com are not blocked. If the issue persists, try restoring on another computer with a known-good connection. If this restore is successful, you will need to contact whoever supports your install of the operating system and security software installed on your computer for assistance. If your hosts file redirects requests to gs.apple.com, you may choose to follow Can't connect to the iTunes Store, in the "The 'hosts' file may be blocking the iTunes Store" section.
This usually happens if you have used a hacking program like Tinyumbrella on your computer sometime in the past.

Firefox continues to have"Not Reponding" issues. Upadated all plug-ins and disables most of them but issue still occurs, often.

Firefox continues to have"Not Responding" issues. Updated all plug-ins and disabled most of them but issue still occurs, OFTEN.

Thank you for your reply,
I know that plugins aren't being outright disabled and that people need to be encouraged to keep up to date, it's just that there's a lopsided amount of focus on them as a security vector from Mozilla.
I must point out however, that javascript security at the moment seems to consist of an on-off switch on almost every browser in existence: there is no obvious way to set "I don't want that site to know where my mouse is for my privacy", "I don't want that site to dynamically load content because it slows my browser" or the sort.
While there is CAPS ( http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/components/ConfigPolicy.html ) it is not configurable from within the browser (and its existence at all is obfuscated) and considering a lot of javascript is obfuscated to discourage run-time modification (say using web development toolbars) or discourage CAPS usage, there's little way to know what exactly to use CAPS on without reverse engineering. The average user would not be able to do this.
Javascript security needs to be more, much more than an on/off switch.

My mac is the OS X 10.8.3. I tried to update the latest Adobe flash player and kept getting 'Actionlist not found.' I have uninstalled, enabled and disabled plug-ins and am still unable to download the update and now have no flashplayer at all. Help!

PS I'm still new to Macs so the more broken down the better.

Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.42 is the most recent version from Adobe. It is a pre-release version. I am using it without any noticeable problems.
The current stable version is Download 11.7.700.169.

HI..
If you are using Adobe Reader ...
Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
Then reinstall > http://get.adobe.com/reader/
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

Why Adobe does not say that some plug-ins and filters on a 64-bit Apple computers do not work?

I called assistance, and the only proposal that I have done was to make new installations, or create a new user.
Then I found this article on the web!
..."Unfortunately, to accommodate the new programming code that allows for 64-bit processing, some plug-ins and filters—the built-in
Variations and Lighting Effects, for example—only work in 32-bit mode, and that surely will disappoint some users. Moreover, most t
hird-party plug-ins too will work only in 32-bit mode, until they are updated. Thankfully, it’s easy (though not especially convenie
nt) to switch between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the program; just select the application icon, choose File->Get Info, turn o
n the 32-bit option, and relaunch Photoshop."
It is not a system so simple for a person working with photoshop files very large (Over 6/7 GB). You lose several minutes of time.
The tests carried out then the difference in performance from 64 to 32 Bit is 40-50% faster in 64 bit mode. This is also why the 64-bit version you can assign more memory.
Someone from Adobe can answer?
Then, to conclude.
But the icons of some new palette of photoshop could not make it more beautiful and not ugly and unpleasant?
Mario

You not hearing it doesn’t mean Adobe didn’t say it.

Mozila Firefox is always asking me to click to activate and use plug-ins like Adobe Reader, Flash, Youtube videos and other plug-ins which it never did before.

I am using Mozilla Firefox and it is now bugging me. After updating it, it is now asking me to always click to activate and use plug-ins like Adobe Reader, Flash, Youtube videosand other plug-ins. I click on activiate all plug-ins but it still asks me to do it each time that I try to use Flash, Adobe Reader, watch a You Tube Video or anything. Why won't Mozilla Firefox automatically actaivate the plug-ins like it used to do. I tried to follow directions on our website for fixing this but it did not work. I am running
Windows XP. Please let me know how to fix this. Thank you.

In the past, to protect you from [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/use-plugins-play-audio-video-games plugins] that have stability or security issues, Firefox could only turn off the problematic plugin. Now Firefox can prevent the plugin from running automatically (which prevents many issues) and then let you choose to run or update the plugin. See [[Why do I have to click to activate plugins?]] for more info.
If you'd like to Disable Firefox's Click-to-Play feature,
# Type ''about:config'' in the address bar and press Enter.
# Press the big button to bypass the warning.
# In the search box, paste ''plugins.click_to_play''
# In the search results, double-click ''plugins.click_to_play'' to set its value to '''false'''

I have been using aurora and updated to 12.0a2 and my computer continually freezes even after disabling all plug-ins and i have even dumped stuff from the memory on my hard drive.

i continually get the same 12.0a2 update box that pops up in the bottom right corner even though i have the updated version and i have to wait for the aurora updater to do something everytime i start a new session. i went through and disabled all plug-ins and have no extensions active and this doesn't solve the problem. according to plug-in check all plug-ins are up to date. aurora does crash every once in a while where it closes out all my windows...but i do not get the crash report anymore to report it. is there a problem with aurora? i even updated FF in case that had a factor in the crashes/freezes!! FF used to do this same thing all the timea fter a new update but this is ridiculous!! WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? typos courtesy of freezing!!!is there a problem with aurora? i can't go more than 2 minutes without constant freezing and the "not responding" message. i have run scans on my computer weekly since i updated to aurora and there is no threats/problems...why does this keep happening?
addendum...i have added the crash reports for the last week...does that give any insight into why this keeps happening?

i am not sure what this means? "not for public use"? i did not seek out another version of FF it was an option on mozilla's page when i needed to update FF!! i know that i will run into these problems if i do not keep current and it was an option so i chose it. are you suggesting that i dump aurora from my system and go back to using just FF? i'm not a developer or know anything deep regarding the physical or logical of systems...i am just trying to keep good maintenance on my system!! i need a browser that works with me and not against me...chrome does not do what i need...neither does opera...FF is the only browser that i have used for almost 4 years now and i don't plan on going back to IE or changing to those mentioned above...i just want to know that when i see new offerings on mozilla products and i accept them into my system that they work much better than what i am experiencing currently!! i get that it is open-sourced and therefore a work in progress

I cannot update my plug ins and adobe flash has now crashed
