On certain websites, I cannot use instant messenger. It comes up as a "connection error". If I use IE8, I do not have this problem... I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash player downloads... what gives?
When attempting to use an instant messenger on certain websites, I keep getting a "connection error" message.... The IM pops up, it appears to start loading then I get the "connection error".

To view this content, you need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player...
since upgrading to Windows 8.1 i keep getting this when trying to view video - live stream from CBC Sports. i have the latest version, Shockwave Flash Object enabled, ActiveX filter disabled... nothing. what am i doing wrong?
From cbc.ca
Windows 8 and IE 11
Microsoft recently updated Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 11 to include a bundled version of Flash in the browser.
This has caused issues on multiple sites, including ours, whereby the user is prompted to download Flash, even though they already have it.
Please be advised that this is not a problem with the video delivery platform, but Microsoft code (IE 11). Microsoft is working on a patch to fix this problem.
In the meantime, the best workaround is to use a different browser.
Also Windows 7 same issue. -
IE 11 Windows 8.1 "to view this content you need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player"
Just installed the update Windows 8.1 and can no longer view media on sites that Windows 8 was fine with.
This problem applies to both the desktop and "Start Screen" versions of IE.
Adobe's Flash Player test site shows that the latest version of Flash Player is installed - though it shows my browser type as "None."
The same issue occurs using Chrome as well.
One site I am trying to view is: http://www.cbc.ca/thenational/watch/.Here's the Flash Player Version for IE 11.0.9600.16384:
And here it is for Chrome 30.0.1599.101m
Both IE and Chrome were working fine before the 8.1 update.
And just to be clear. I am running Windows 8.1 (64 bit) not 32 as shown for the Chrome.
I installed Firefox after posting my original note - it is working fine. -
Can anyone find a way to fix this? If not, then I'll have to send my MacBook Pro to the nearest Apple Store.
Which os do you have installed?
YouTube videos are not streams. -
In eBay, I was trying to upload pictures when I got this message: "You need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to use the standard picture uploader.
Download and install the latest version from Adobe before continuing."
In YouTube, when trying to watch a video, I got this message: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
I have gone through the procedure for downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, but still get the same messages when I reopen Firefox and revisit these sites.
There does not seem to be the same problem with Safari, which runs the latest version of Adobe Flash Player with no trouble.
I am using an iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.6.7.You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.

For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

What's the best way to update my Mac with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?
I've been getting prompts whenever I look at certain websites to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I'm skeptical as to responding to those prompts. What is the best way to update my Mac Pro with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?
You might also want to consider uninstalling Adobe Flash... I currently don't have it installed and haven't needed to install it. Most websites are now coded in HTML 5 so that the iOS devices can actually visit them. I can still watch YouTube videos et al. About the only thing I can't do is play Flash games... but they're a resource hog anyways.
Try going without for a day or two and see just how many sites you visit no longer require it. A lot of people keep it installed out of habit, not out of necessity. If you have Flash installed, visit a site and it's out of date, it will tell you to update your Flash. What it won't do is tell you is that had Flash not been installed, it would have used the HTML 5 code instead. Think about it... if an iOS device can't run Flash at all... it can't visit this site if it were written only to use Flash. What site would eliminate such a huge portion of their market base? You'd be surprised at how many sites use HTML 5. Uninstall Flash and see for yourself. -
Some of my applications have been saying I need the latest version of Adoebe Flash Player. When I try to download it I get the following error message: 'Frame Load interrupted' and the installation stops. Any suggestions?
You can only use apps downloaded from the App store, not via a browser. There is no Flash for any iOS device including the iPod.

Why won't firefox crashes when I try to download the latest version of adobe flash player ?
When I tried to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (10.1.85.3), nothing happened. Then something popped up....
http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/rr260/TaDaO0o/asdgahgfa.jpg?t=1287493272
(click it)
when I clicked the "install missing plugins," this popped up...

I was a little confused because it was totally different from what the instructions said
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/?installer=Flash_Player_10.1_for_Windows_-_Other_Browsers&a=McAfee_Security_Scan_Plus&os=Vista&browser=Firefox&type=xpi&xpiinstalled=1
so I decided to click the "manual" button and a download page to download a file named "Gp" popped. Seeing that I just clicked cancel then suddenly my computer froze. I tried going to the adobe download page again and it happens all over again. Please Help Me :(No bug, My late 2012 Mini with 10.9.1and Flash Player 12 works fine.

i have updated version of Mozilla Firefox 25.0 And adobe flash Player also latest version but every time adobe crush what to do
This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
(1) If you have any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media make sure they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.
(2) 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
(3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista and higher)
See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
Any luck? -
