QuickTime Player Shut Down Automatically!!!!!!?

Recently I purchased the new iMac 27 inch late 2012 with OS X 10.8.4.
Later on, I learned that there is something wrong with QuickTime Player.
Every time when I tried to play a MP4 video, QuickTime Player shut down automatically.
I also cannot create new video, audio, and screen recording.
When I ever tried it, it again shut down by itself.
I saved the error message in TextEdit, and shared it here.
Feel free to take a look, and see if anyone know how to fix it.
Thank you~

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Flash Player Shuts off PC

Hello everyone, and thanks in advance for any help. PIaying a Flash game on Facebook or watching Flash movies shuts off machine. I am at wits end.
I recently bought a Gateway desktop. The specs:
- Intel Quad core
- 8GB Ram
- Vista Ultimate 64
- NVidia GT 120 1GB
- Realtek HD Audio
- Some crappy DVD burner
- Apex? TV Tuner
- Some internal usb card reader
The computer has 3 things installed that didn’t come with the machine. CS4 Master Collection, World of Warcraft, and Avast anti-virus.
When I play FarmVille or FarmTown on Facebook (flash based game) or watch Flash Player based movies, the machine just turns off after about 10 minutes. I have searched forums for a week and think I have covered all my bases.
There are no errors in the system log before it shuts down, just an error talking about an unexpected shutdown afterwards.
The machine runs World of Warcraft for hours at max framerate and doesn’t overheat. I have downloaded fan speed applications and CPU/GPU heat monitoring software and everything is fine. Flash games don’t even move the needle.
The drivers for the GT 120 video card and the real tek audio card are the newest from the manufacturer. All windows updates are up to date.
I have used the Flash removal tool, cleaned the registry where I could and completely reinstalled Flash Player. This happens in all browsers, it occurs in IE7, IE8 (upgraded to try it), Chrome, and Firefox.
At this point, Gateway support says to reload from factory and try it again. But what I couldn’t exactly get the support rep to say was that Flash isn’t supported because it’s not pre-installed. Once I install the Flash Player it now has 3rd party applications, and there’s where I have the problem.
I understand that a browser plug-in should not be able to just completely shut down the machine, there has to be some hardware or driver issue. I am at a loss, the machine runs like a champ and never faults for anything else. It just comes across some function it seems after a certain period of time that the machine can’t handle.
Running the machine in safe-mode with hardware video acceleration off at 800x600 still causes the problem. I had to run the machine in Safe-Mode with Networking though to access Facebook.
Things I have yet to try:
- Removing half my ram, trying it, if it still doesn’t work, swap with the other half I took out (checking for bad ram)
- Removing my anti-virus.
- Take some flash animation I have laying around and run it in the browser in safe-mode without networking.
Is there anything else I could possibly try?
-J

I am having the same exact problem on a completely different machine. I have actually created a post within these forums and have yet to get a response.
Of course the guys here at Adobe aren't going to admit that their product can cause such a failure in a machine. I assure you it can and it is. I have done a battery of tests on my computer, I have replace every single piece of hardware in it. I have formatted and re-installed windows several times and I have made sure that I have all of the current drivers.
Nothing I do solves this problem. I have downloaded the windows debugging program to try to do a memory.dmp debug and guess what. My computer doesn't create one when this happens. There is no error message to prove anything went wrong. The only thing I get is a Critical Error in the Event Viewer that says there was a Kernel 41 Power loss failure.
The problem is, without a doubt, a compatability issue with flash player and a device driver, probably video, on our computers.. I just don't know which one and if there is any way to fix it.

Flash 10 shuts down laptop

I installed the Flash Player 10 and have Vista. Using IE, any game or video using Flash shuts down my Dell laptop. I have tried all the fixes in the tech forums I can find and nothing works. I have installed and uninstalled and even considered trying to go back to Flash 9 LOL Any help suggestions appreciated! Thanx, Dawn

I have not updated any drivers. I thought it had to be a Flash issue, but have been told that perhaps the games/videos are overheating something (can't remember what it was) LOL I think my best bet is going to be to take it to someone who knows what they are doing cause I'm not sure how to even find what graphic card is in this laptop...

Why adobe flash player slows down all browser's performance?

I rememeber longer ago there were problems with flash player plugin inside Mozilla's Firefox browser causing the plugin to crash: Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again | Firefox Help
After a recent update (17,0,0,134) it almost never crash but it slows down all browsers performance untill it finally launches next video. Almost the majority of all news sites use flash player
to launch its' commercial. And it has several such boxes with commercials, for example: www.lrytas.lt
And while I'm listening to music via youtube and on the other tab reading news on that site, when music clip ends and the browser starts to load other music videoclip,
then the whole browser's work is paralysed - I can't write text, cannot scroll down, cannot click any link. All this is because the system is busy while in youtube next clip is loading.
Mouse marker becomes into round rotating circle indicating loading procedure (firefox is not responding). And it takes time - up to 10-15 seconds to launch new video. Then sudenly all my actions is executed after such pause - my text is typed,
my scroll down and maybe link is pressed. All this slowing down procedure is annoying. It wastes a lot of time. I open task manager and I see that Firefox is taking 900.000 or 1300.000 K of memory. My OS is Windows 7.
I close whole firefox.exe process and then it automatically close plugins. Then I open the browser again and it ask to automatically recover interrupted sites, I agree with it and then it opens everything again. And again
it is working continuously for some time untill slows down browser again. With more tabs more problems. Moreover, view of a video sometimes comes too late too. Some images are lost as system is too late already because
loading procedure took too much resources.
Long long ago flash player was better. But today with a rise of new ****** substandart computers like iphones ipads you have to evolve the player in such a way that it has to play on everything, but its performance on different platforms
is not the same.
Who is guilty - my PC, Firefox or the plugin? Or maybe I am?
In My Cold Opinion, users actions can't be ignored. The preference should be user's continuous control over a system load.

You are right about high CPU usage. It was even when playing various computer games. I don't have problems anymore. But not because I disabled all addons. I did these things:
In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
Search for dom.ipc.plugins.flash.disable-protected-mode in the list of preferences.
Double-click on the preference to toggle its value from false to true. (If the setting is already true it means that Flash Protected Mode is currently disabled.)
Close Firefox.
Restart Firefox.
And since then I don't have that particular problem with overloading. I just disabled some of flash protected mode. How is that related with "overloading"? Strage. Hardware acceleration I've enabled again as without it whole text field in news sites is sometimes black.
Thanks anyway Mr.

Flash player slowing down

I'm having kind of a weird problem with the flash player. I
recently was having a performance problem with a game I'm working
on where after playing for a while, it suddenly would slow down to
about half the normal framerate. I searched for the bug for a
while, but then I noticed it was happening with lots of other
people's flash games too, even though the same problems don't occur
on other computers. So I think somehow the Flash player is now
having some kind of problem specific to my computer. Here's the
symptoms:
-As I run the flash, my CPU usage keeps going up but the
performance stays the same until it hits a sudden, major slowdown.
-If I've played a flash until the player slows down, then I
close it and open another one shortly, the new one will run slow,
too. If I wait a while, it will start out normal.
-This is just a guess, but it appears that flash that has to
redraw a lot every frame is having this problem the most. I have a
couple of games that don't change a lot each frame that don't have
any problems.
Anyway, I know this is kind of ambiguous, but I'm really
hoping someone will recognize these symptoms and know what's wrong.
Please let me know if you have any guesses as to what's slowing
down the flash player, it's become very difficult to develop when I
can't run my own games at full speed for more than 30 seconds :P
thanks,
Max

O/S Windows XP Professional 32Bit + Ati Catalyst Drivers "10-2_legacy_xp32-64_dd_ccc" and I am generally using Firefox up to date.
I made yesterday an experiment, removed the 11th version of Flash Player Plugin & ActiveX, and installed from the archive the 10th version of plugin + 11th activex and then everything worked like it supposed to be - fine.But i have failed to install 10th version of ActiveX, i'ts just telling me that cannot be installed, some kind of error.
P.S. I think i've fixed my issues, i tried to install again from the Adobe Flash Player archive version 10.3.183.18 ActiveX & Plugin and i did it.Now .flv are running like 2 days ago - without any problems.
Maybe the thing is that my configuration is slow for the new version of the player,my CPU isn't multicore, but still it is not bad for the Adobe programmers to optimize the new version better for slower pc's.
Cheers!

Flash Player Freezes on Online Games

I'm not entirely sure if this is an adobe flash player problem, but I think it is...possibly.
We just upgraded our computers to Windows 7 32 bit. We work with kids so they like to play a lot of those
online free games, like those on gamefudge or addictinggames. Every since the change, many of the games no
longer work. They'll load, and possibly play for a screen or two, and then just stop working at the same spots
every time. Just the player freezes, the browser still works fine. I've tried I.E. 8, Firefox, and Chrome, and
the same thing happens on all of them. The only common thread I could find is that they are all running in
flash player.
Any help would be great, thanks.

Hi, Sometimes with a major upgrade some glitch can occur. Have you Uninstalled and Installed Flash Player version 10 since the Win7/IE8 upgrade?
Did you have version 10 on prior to the Win7 upgrade?
What browsers do you now have installed, all that you tried? Keep in mind IE8 comes with Win7.
Thanks,
eidnolb

Flash player not working for games (Win. 7 64-bit)

The Flash Player often doesn't work so that games only show as blank white. I get this on a variaty of websites, typically games and sometimes parts of the Harry Potter official website. However, I have no problems with YouTube. My computer is new and I have never had this problem before on previous computers, but it shouldn't be the computer.

Use this Microsoft Fixit to disable hardware acceleration: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2528233

Will downloading adobe flash player slow down my mac

Hi, i have a macbook pro 13 inch. Its my first mac and still figuring some stuff out but i want to be able to go on youtube, but when i pull up youtube it says i require adobe flash player; is there a way to get youtube videos without downloading flash. If not i dont mind downloading it, just would like to know if it will slow down the speed of my mac before i do download flash.

No, installing Flash will not slow down your machine. Make sure it is up to date so there are no security problems.

White screen flash when shutting down after a suspend

If I have suspended my laptop at any time during its uptime, when shutting down the screen flashes white, but it turns off as usual. This only happens if I have suspened.
There are no issues as far as I can tell, I see nothing much in journalctl when comparing a suspeded shutdown vs no suspend.
Im using nouveau, and I'm up-to-date as of now.
Google hasnt returned much,
Anyone else seeing this?

Create a new account, name it "test" and see how your apps work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.) This account is just for test, do nothing further with it.
Open System Preferences >> Accounts >> "+" make it an admin account.
If the problem is present in the test account also, then it is systemwide. In this case try repairing this with the 10.5.2 Combo Update This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.
Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
If the problem does not appear in the test account try starting in "Safe Mode" (It will take a bit more time to startup because it runs a directory check first).
If that works go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items and remove them. Boot normally and test. If there are still problems, go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving /Users/Home)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.
Let us know.

Hp v195b flash drive shuts down MacBook Pro when inserted

Hi I hope someone can help me solve this problem.
I bought two hp USB flash drive v195b today and inserted one of them into my Macbook Pro 5,3 with Mac OS X 10.6.8
When I inserted the flash drive a screen turned up in my computer and asked me to shut down my computer on the switch on/off button. This was the only thing the computer reacted to. Nothing else worked.
I then inserted the flash drive in an older macbook with Mac OS X 10.4.11. In this one I could see it and I tried to make a partition using the disc utility tool, but the flash drive still makes my MacBook Pro shut down?
Anyone tried this or have a suggestion to how I solve this?
Thank you, Sanne

Flash Player won't load games in Facebook

Why are my FB games loading or only partially loading? I am using Flash Player 11.9.9 on Windows XP 32-bit operating system with Mozilla Firefox browser. My flash player information shows plug-in installed but Acitve X not installed. Is this correct for this version? I have tried all troubleshooting suggestions from Adobe, Facebook games as well as Zynga Player Support. Please help!!!

Firefox DOESN'T USE ActiveX. ONLY Internet Exploder uses ActiveX.
Download the uninstallers and installers directly by right clicking the following links and selecting "Save Link as"(Firefox).
Flash Player Uninstaller
Shockwave Player Uninstaller
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Shockwave Player 12 FULL Installer
Save the files to your Downloads folder - DO NOT run anything yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening anything, go to the Downloads folder and run the UNINSTALLERS to removeFlash Player and Shockwave.
Next, run the Shockwave FULL installer, and then the Flash Player (All other browsers) Installer.

Flash Player slows down CSS and DOM animations

Greetings again,
Following symptom happens only in Vista (both 64 and 32 bits)
IE8 Beta 2.
Using Flash animations (SWF) in same screen with other DOM
and CSS animations makes browser inresponsive. This does not happen
in Firefox, Opera etc. on very same Vistas and does not happen in
IE6 on a Windows XP machine or IE7 in Vista
Here is an example:
http://www.chip.com.tr
Don't mind the language of site, here is the thing: Menus
such as BÖLÜMLER, DOWNLOAD etc. on top, right of the logo
OR blue icons again right of the logo, normally works very well
without problems. However, when advertisements are loaded (which
are flash based), IE on Vista turn into very slow responsiveness
values when you mouse over these icons and menus. I tried to change
just flashes load without javascript need, result did not change
By design, is there some error or is this classified as bug?

No slowing down on page given on menu transitions and are you
on Vista?
Edit: Just tried it. Removed entire IE8 and reinstalled IE8
again. Problem continues on this page. It makes you feel like CPU

Flash Player won't load game in Facebook using Google Chrome

I have a Windows 7, 32 bit. I like to use Google Chrome. I have one game that won't load. I have went through all the troubleshooting steps. I noticed that the settings won't save the "use unlimited" setting. I have changed it several times and everytime I go back its back on 0. Help please.

Besides posting over on Google's forums, you might also want to try closing your browsers and deleting the following folder:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com
