No sound in any flash content

Hi.
I have this weird problem. I have no sound in any flash content. Websites with sound I cannot hear. Applications using flash player does'nt put out any sound.
I have the volume turned up on my speakers and am able to listen to music from iTunes, also music and videos played with Quicktime sound comes out fine.
It's the same problem whether I use Safari, Firefox, Camino or directly via the adobe flash 8 software.
Could this be a virus or a bug in flash player? Is there some hidden setting I can adjust?
I am using an intel 20" iMac.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks
Vayu

No Sound when viewing Flash content in Safari for Windows

Hopefully someone can help.
Just recently, I've been unable to get sound when viewing Flash content on the web.
I currently use Safari for Windows, when I use Internet Explorer on the same computer I can get sound. Just no sound when using Safari for Windows????
Please help, I like Safari for Windows much better than I.E. but I'm forced to use IE when I want to watch something with sound.
Thank you

Are you using Safari 3.1.2?
Try reinstalling the Flash plugin at: http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html

I can not get any sound while playing Flash content in IE, FireFox, or Chrome

I have Windows 7, 64 bit. I have ie 8, I think it is 32 bit, ("About ie" does not indicate 64bit).
I have unistalled Adobe Flash and re-installed, I have verified that I have the REG files under System32/ and SysWOW64/ (or whatever)...
I installed Chrome after I have having this problem. I have plugged my speakers into both the AudioJack in the back of machine, as well as in the headphone Jack. I have tried just using headphones...
I have gone to the 'configuration site' I have deleted Windows temporary files, I have deleted i.e. and FireFox files.
I have checked multimedia setting in ie advanced tabs.
I have checked the sound volume in the 'Mixer'
Sound works in my broser for Quicktime applications (like video on apples website). Sound works everywhere else...playing music, Windows startup, speaker test, etc...
I have worked on this for hours!!! Please help.
Thanks!

Below are the Steps from:
http://www.codecguide.com/fix_for_flash_sound_problems.htm
And my results:
Flash stores its files in a temporary files folder. A corrupt download can cause the sound problems.
Delete the following folders:
C:\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\Application Data\Adobe\Flash Player
C:\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player
Actually…Note that point 1 sould be %APPDATA%\Adobe\Flash Player%APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player
(Thanks willener)

Install the latest version of the Flash plugin. You can download it HERE. If you have problems upgrading the plugin, then uninstall your existing version first with this tool. Close your browser(s) before you run the uninstall tool.
I completed this – No help
Run the K-Lite Codec Tweak Tool. Near the top you should see an option to fix the sound (Midi, WaveOut). Select that and press Next. If the option is grayed out, then that particular registry fix is not needed. This fix will restore a missing "wavemapper" registry key.

Check if your sound device settings are correct:
Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Sound and Audio Devices -> Audio
This is not correct instructions for Windows 7.
Obviously I have checked sound settings in RealTek Audio manger several times. As well as in the mixer, and in the Internet Option Settings (Advanced Multimedia). I checked setting under “Hardware and Sound” there is nothing there that has any effect.
If you have QuickTime installed, then go to the QuickTime control panel. On the Audio tab, set "Default Music Synthesizer" to "General MIDI".
On the Advanced tab, disable "Enable playback of Adobe Flash tracks".
On the browser tab, click on "MIME Settings". Under "Miscellaneous", make sure "Flash media" is unchecked.
These are not accurate options on my computer (Quicktime 7.6.9).
Under Default Music Synthesizer. There is no “general MIDI” only option is “Quicktime Music Synthesizer”
Advanced Tab: “Enable playback of Adobe Flash tracks".is not an option
Browser Tab: "Flash media" is not listed under MIME Settings (There is no Miscellaneous)
Check if the file msacm32.drv is present in the C:\Windows\system32 folder. If not, copy it from another PC (that has the same version of Windows) and place the file in the system32 folder. If you are using a 64-bit version of Windows, then the file should be present in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder.
Verified these files are here.
If you are also having sound problems with other applications, then re-installing your audio drivers might solve the problem.
I am not having problems with other audio applications, but I still completed this – No help

Clicking on any flash content "freezes" my broswer window.

Hello, so my issue is this: Whenever I try to click on something that uses flash, for this example youtube videos, it "freezes" my browser window. By freezes I mean the mouse icon freezes as the little clicking hand icon and I can no longer click on anything on that browser. The only way to stop this is to click on the icon of my browser in my taskbar. This minimizes the browser. When I click it again, everything is back in working order. Until, of course, I try to click on the video again. I know the browser is not truley frozen, because the video continues to play, and if my click was on the video itself, I can still use the space bar to pause and play the video. This happens for games using flash as well (and I assume anything else that uses flash). I tried youtube using the HTML5 trial and experienced no problems.
I am currently running the latest version of flash, and I'm experiencing these problems on Firefox and Crome. I have followed all of the steps listed here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html
I have also tried uninstalling flash, restarting the computer, and reinstalling flash. This did nothing.
Help?

An update. I just tried watching a youtube video someone put on my facebook wall. I was able to watch the video, click play/pause, full screen, etc. without any problems. As soon as I clicked the youtube button to go to the actual page, I encountered the same problem as before. I don't know much about computers, so I can only assume embeded videos work differently somehow so that I can watch it?

Firefox cannot download any Flash content using Mac OS Lion

Flash content freezing my system!

Hey there,
I've been having an issue with Flash content for the past three weeks now, I've tried just about anything and I'm becoming desperate. I've conducted a wide variety of tests on the various components in my build, but I'm still no closer to discovering what the issue may be.
The Issue
Occasionally, when watching Flash content, my computer will freeze and I'll lose all control over the mouse and keyboard. It sounds like the computer is about to blue screen (looping audio), but it doesn't - it just hangs on the same image for anywhere between 15 seconds to 2 minutes. Sometimes, I need to hard restart my system in order to use the computer again.
This will typically happen when Flash content is played full-screen on websites like YouTube and Twitch.tv, and on resolutions higher than 480p - but I have experienced (less frequent) crashes when the content is not full-screen, at 360p. It just seems to be video that causes the problem, as I've yet to have any issues with websites that present an alternative form of Flash content.
Hardware:
Processor: Intel i5-2500K @ 3.30GHz
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 570 1280MB
Motherboard: ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3
Memory: Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB
PSU: Cooler Master Silent Pro Modular 700W
Nothing is overclocked.
I’ve uploaded my DxDiag here.
What have I done to try and diagnose the problem?
Enabled and disabled hardware acceleration.
Updated to latest graphics card drivers, also rolled back to previous versions I’ve known to work previously with my system.
Monitored system usage/temperatures when watching HD Flash content. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Ran Memtestx86 for 24 hours. No errors.
Ran Prime95 Blend for 24 hours. No errors.
FurMark for 2 hours to test graphics card stability, things seemed fine. I have been playing Far Cry 3 continuously on high settings for the past few days with zero instability.
I’ve tried downloading older versions of Flash, and using different browsers. No change.
When did it start?
The issue started when I updated the BIOS for my motherboard (ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3) from v1.20 to v2.20, since then I've updated to v2.30. I would roll back to v1.20, but it’s simply not possible according to various sources I’ve read online.
Thoughts
I’m pretty sure my hardware is fine. All the tests I’ve done indicate my system is stable when I’m not running Flash content. I’ve been playing games, writing documents for university and browsing the internet with absolutely no issues (as long as I don’t watch any Flash content). Therefore, I suspect there are compatibility issues with Flash, my hardware setup and the latest BIOS updates from ASRock, but maybe I’ve missed something. If you’ve got any ideas PLEASE leave a reply. I’m pulling my hair out trying to figure out what’s going on here, some help would be great.
Cheers!

What is your display adapter, and what device driver version do you have installed?

Upgraded to Flash 9 on OS 10.4.11 -- cannot view flash content

Hi All! I recently upgraded Flash to v. 9 and can no longer
view any Flash content online. No error messages - just blank space
where video clip would normally be. Shortly before I noticed these
problems, I also upgraded Quicktime. I've seen comments online
about going into System Preferences > Quicktime > Advanced
> MIME Settings > Miscelaneous. I was told to uncheck the
Flash in the list, but don't see Flash listed there. I'm not sure
if there is some conflict with Quicktime or if that upgrade is
unrelated? Any advice would be appreciated! Sue

I am having the same problem. When I installed The new Flash
Player it said it was installed successfully. But I don't see the
movie, just the (F) flash logo. When I go to pbskids.org to run
flash content, it says I need the Flash Player??

Flash Content Freezes Temporarily in IE

After moving the mouse on to Flash content on a web page in
IE6 and IE7, it freezes for a few seconds, and then becomes
responsive again. It seems that when this happens, everything on
the page including links and rollover images become unresponsive as
well.
I tried reinstalling IE7 (during which time I tested the
problem in IE6) with no luck in either browser. There was still a
slight duration of unresponsiveness. I also uninstalled flash
player and installed the standalone version of 9,0,28.
Firefox and Opera are both fine and do not present this
issue.
I know this is confined to my PC only as I tested it on my
flat mate's PCs. But I was wondering if anyone else has had this
problem or might be able to help or suggest something to try.
It might be worth noting that when the Flash content is
playing audio, the audio does not stop when the mouse and visual
frames halt for that short period.

Solved!
It was a problem with FlashGet 1.80. This version of FlashGet
introduced a Flash download button which annoyingly popped up right
under the mouse cursor when you moused over a Flash object on a web
page and must have been causing any Flash content to pause for a
short time.
The latest version of FlashGet v1.82 does not present this
problem :)

Firefox crashes or freezes unexpected while watching/using flash contents

Firefox crashes or freezes unexpected while watching/using flash contents. Particularly, when I need any flash content. It freezes up so that the only option will be to force quit the firefox.

I've noticed the crashing increasing with the newer versions. The worst thing is when I'm writing a long email and then go to a page with flash and ff locks up and then crashes. I use IE now for most flash content or mission critical emailing but IE's interface is poorly laid out so I don't like it. I've tried FF with the plugin container and without it and it crashes either way (more often without the container). I use adblock and firebug. I wonder if ppl experiencing this prob are using those plugins too.

Hello,
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

Flash content renders above everything else

This is something that has been happening since even way before I upgraded to Safari 5. Every page that has any flash content renders the flash on top of everything else.
Example: a site with a dropdown menu and a large content slider made with flash, the flash covers the dropdown menu making it impossible to click the links. Or heres an example that I have a screenshot of:
http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/5820/flashk.png
Here the flash covers only part of the content but its annoying especially on sites built with large flash areas. Is there a fix for this? This has been happening for as long as I can remember.

Honestly I cannot find any other sites, I know there are many out there I just cant remember the name. Regardless this happens no matter what, for some reason my Safari renders Flash the top layer in ANY instance. I can try to explain another site I remember distinctly: The site had a header much like the Apple site here except that the menu was a CSS dropdown menu. Right below the menu was a sort of "headlines/highlights" section which spanned the full width of the webpage design and it was build purely with flash. Now, every time you hover over one of the menu items they drop down, right below the flash so I couldn't read the links or even click them because Flash was stacked on top.
Another example I can think of is sites that use a javascript/jquery image viewer where you'd click a thumbnail and it would pop it up full size (like Gizmodo does with their galleries). Now if there is a banner ad on the side and I click an image it will come up full size but it doesn't cover the whole page like it should, it covers everything but the flash.

Flash content that utilizes webcam crashes browser

I believe this issue may effect ALL SONY VAIO laptops. Any
Flash content that utilizes the webcam will crash the browser. I
have tested in IE and Opera.
I am currently running Vista Business and have reproduced
this in Vista Ultimate with the same laptop(VGN-TT190).
Basically go to youtube and choose to upload a video using
"Quick Capture". When the flash content loads it will crash the
browser. This happens on ANY flash content that accesses the
webcam. Even adobe's own webcam test.
Another way to crash flash/browser would be to right click
any flash content. Choose settings. Got to webcam settings and the
browser will crash.
Please help me!
Thank you!

I have talked to Sony about this and we have reached a
workaround.
it involves a file called BtwVdpCapFilter.dll (it is a
bluetooth profile that essentially allows people to share their
webcam across bluetooth BUT no one uses this) and it is what is
crashing when you access the webcam thru IE/Firefox/Opera.
So go to C:\windows\system32 and rename it to anything for
example BtwVdpCapFilter1.dll and everything should be fine. Sony
said they will be releasing a patch for this.
Enjoy!

Flash content 5230

I have been unable to view any flash content on my web browser of Nokia 5230 since I have bought it.
When i open desktop version of Youtube or Metacafe, instead of playing the video there appears a small "flash 9 needed icon" in the video. On the mobile version of these sites the browser opens the Realplayer.
I have already upgraded to FlashLite 3.1
Please help me

Update to latest flash lite, if available, through software update application for the flash videos to work, regarding the videos played from the memory card are they encoded with MPEG4 codec or any other one supported by device.
If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

Playing Flash content affects my touchpad settings

Hi folks, I've searched the internet for an answer to this problem and I've ended up here (maybe I should have started here?!)
My question is; why does playing flash content on any website affect my laptop touchpad settings? I have 'tapping' enabled which I like, but after playing any flash content the tapping feature no longer works. The only way to get it back is via Control Panel-->Mouse settings etc, which is irritating the hell out of me. Any ideas / remedies gratefully recived, thanks
Nick

I too have a new 5800 XpressMusic with firmware v30 and that cannot display flash content. A friend has the same phone with v20 firmware and that plays the same websites just fine! I have checked the settings on both phones and they are the same. Looking for solution cos browsing is rubbish right now.

Border around Flash content in Firefox 7.01

I notice that any Flash content I create inside a Dreamweaver,html page results in a dotted border around the flash object when clicked. I cannot be the only one seeing this. I also have Safari which the content shows up fine. I thought it may have benn my css page but I also imported a flash swf directly to an blank .html page and that is my result
Is this an html or Flash problem?
anyone?
rd

This is an html/css matter. I think it involves setting an 'outline' style to '0' or 'none' though I can't rememebr for sure. Try Googling "CSS remove outline"... here's one result from that search that looks like it includes a section for Flash.
