I loaded 4.0 and now I cannot view any videos. Flash player causes Firefox to stop responding.

I am running XP. I recently loaded Firefox 4.0 on my system.
There were a lot of problems loading some web sites. Your help system suggested to disable all plugins. I did this and I don't have problems with web sites anymore but I cannot view any videos. I have tried reinstalling Adobe Flash but it just causes Firefox to stop responding.
Ideas?

'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]''''' {web link}
While you are in safe mode;
Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by;
Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''
Mac; ''application name'' '''> Preferences'''
Then '''Advanced > General.'''
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart

  • I installed Mountain Lion and now I cannot watch anything on flash player. It just says incompatable plug-in. I was instructed to download the latest version of flash play which I have done but it makes no difference what so ever.

    As stated above. I need to upload pictures to my business website but now my upload box is  just saying incompatable plug in. I wish I had never installed Lion as I was happy with my mac on its origional OS, I only installed it as my Java had disappeared and I was instructed on the java page that to upload the latest verion of Java I needed to upgrade to Lion. I am really not happy as I now cannot do the job on my mac that I bought the mac to do the job on. Please help. Is it possible to uninstall Lion without buggering up my mac and going back to my origional OS. I am on safari. Not even sure which version of Lion I have downloaded so I am sure you can tell I am not a teccy

  • I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but I do not want to delete/lose their data

    I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but since the old one was deactivated I cant update them and I do not want to delete/lose their data, re download, and start all over again. Is there anyway to go around this issue?
    thanks

    Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

    Hi kiwirudy,
    I've had the same problem more than once since I started trying to download my 14 April purchase of OS X Mountain Lion.
    I found a property list called manifest.plist in my ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder which had a Boolean property called failed checked. I unchecked it and afterwards I was able to resume my download.
    Here are some steps I've found useful:
    Close the Mac App Store.
    make a copy of the  ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder. For some strange reason the Mac App Store likes to just delete it in some circumstances, which will mean that one has to start one's download again from the very beginning.
    Double click on the manifest.plist in one's ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder.
    This should open it in Property List Editor.
    Expand all the nodes (holding down the alt key and clicking on the highest collapsed node should do it.
    Find a key called failed of type Boolean and uncheck it.
    Save the manifest.plist and close it.
    Open the Mac App Store.
    The red message "an error has occured" should now be gone and one should be able to resume one's download.
    In the event that the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder gets deleted:
    start the download again (it will start from the beginning), pause it and close the Mac App Store.
    copy your backup copy of the pkg file back to its sub-folder (it's a numbered folder in the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder).
    Open the Mac App Store and resume your download.
    It should continue from where it left off.
    This has worked for me so far. I'm holding my breath. Don't know if I'll still be alive when it's finished.
    Regards
    Nic

  • I have ExportPDF and now I cannot open any of my PDF files in my documents. Why?

    I just signed up for AdobeExportPDF, and now I cannot open any of my existing PDF documents in my files. Why? How can I fix this?

    Hi harrisonmr,
    ExportPDF is an online service, and there's nothing to download to your desktop, so it shouldn't have affected your PDF files. What happens when you try to open the PDF files? Are you opening them in Reader, or trying to open them in a web browser? I did recently work with another customer on this issue, and it turned out that an update to Firefox had somehow affected the file associations on her computer.
    Please provide some specifics about how you're opening the files, what type of system you have (Mac OS or Windows), and what happens when you try to open those files.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • I recently clicked on an iphoto 'upgrade' message I received and now I cannot see ANY of my photos!!  Desperate for help!  Please.  Thanks.

    I recently 'upgraded' my iphoto because everytime I clicked on it,  I got a message telling me to do it.  Now,  I cannot see ANY of my pictures. Very frustrating. I've already gone to 'software updates' and tried that to no avail.  Please,  anyone... HELP!!!  Thanks!!!

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

  • I recently installed Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin, and now can't play any videos from any website in Mozilla, but Google Chrome works.

    Cannot play any video from any website in Mozilla after installing Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin. However, I can play videos from Google Chrome and also from Internet Explorer. For example, when I'm trying to play a you tube video in Mozilla, a black screen comes up with following error message: "An error has occurred. Please try again later."
    (This is like the Wizard of Oz -- when the man comes to the little window in the door and says to Dorothy, "Come back tomorrow." )

    This may be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update.
