"player.play.it is requesting permission to store information on your computer."

I believe this may be a virus. At the top of the messege it says Adobe flash player settings. Under that it says Local Storage. Under, it says requested: up to 1MB, currently used 100KB. Then it has 2 boxes to check either Allow or Deny. This pops up every time I turn on aol radio. I click deny, but it keeps coming back! help!

I had the same problem and I disabled the AOL toolbars as follows and the problem went away:
From Internet explorer window click on TOOLS then select MANAGE ADD-ONS then under ADD-ON TYPES the option TOOLBARS and EXTENSIONS should already be selected (if not then select it). In the SHOW: window or box select CURRENTLY LOADED ADD-ONS then in the window on the right select AOL TOOLBAR then select DISABLE (another window will pop up that lists related add-ons that will also be disabled) then click DISABLE.

Flashplayer pop up box "Requesting permission to store info on my computer" does not respond and will not go away. How do I get rid of it. It is most annoying as it stays right in the middle of the screen.

Move cursor onto video. Right click. Click Settings, Click the "never ask again" box. Then click Close. That will work.
For some reason, that always worked for me, but in the last two days, it does not work, and it seems to freeze on the
video. See, if it works for you.

Adobe Flash requesting permission to store information on computer

Hi,
Every time I try to play a video I am receiving this type of message that is in the center of the video. It doesn't seem like an official Adobe message so I am a little suspicious. Are you able to confirm if this is a legitimate error message?
Thanks,Lisa

I've got the same problem. It bodes ill that no one answered this in 2014. I am so sick of getting the run-around every time I seek help. Go to this site, update your password, confirm your password update, read this page of frequently asked questions and please don't look for actual help.

Local Storage issue - Permission to store info on my computer

Hi-
I'm pretty frustrated. I am trying to play video on a particular website and I continue to get a box popping up in the screen that says "the website is requesting permission to store information on your computer." And then it says "requested: up to 1MB...currently using: 1KB." Then I have a choice of selecting "allow" or "don't allow" - neither works, it's frozen. I've gone to the Abobe website and tried changing my settings, the new settings don't work either. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing and guess what - doesn't work either. Any help would be 100% appreciated.

Perhaps it's a problem with the actual website than the Flash Player itself? The reason I think this is that you get the "script is taking too long to run" message, which often means the actual actionscript in the SWF is either badly written or stuck in a loop. I know this, because I regulary lock up the player when writing poor code... I'm tempted to write a SWF that replicates this exact situation in fact.
Ideally, you could confirm this by getting somebody else to try to access the site, or by accessing it from a different browser. Though not 100% accurate (the script may behave differently according to user or session data) it might be a good place to start. It's also possible that the bug doesn't occur in a particular browser, though this is rare as Flash is very consistent these days from one browser to the next, minus a couple of issues.
A possible alternative solution is to delete the specific Flash cookie and try the site again: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.htm l
(personally I find that list so vast that I often just delete all Flash cookies).
However, deleting the flash cookie won't help if you the original SWF on the site is bugged!

Pop up window on youtube asking permission to store info in my computer

When playing something on Youtube and iPlayer, I get a pop up window about Flash Player Settings-Local Storage. The website is requesting permission to store information on my computer. I have now update my Flash Player but still get the pop up window. Not sure whether this is normal and what shouls I do. I am concerned about security so, could someone kindly tell me what is this about?
Many thanks in advance.

I get similar messages accessing some sites because of flash settings - it is normal. To see if your messages are caused by the same settings, go to System Preferences > Flash Player:
The Storage button gives something like this:
If this is what your prefrences look like, the message is normal and generated by the Flash player. If these messages annoy you, you can choose "Allow sites to save ..." instead.

I installed adobe 9 on my Mt. Lion mac and now whenever I try to play any kind of video a box from adobe comes up asking me to give them permission to store things on my computer. This is scary to me. Should I say yes?

I installed adobe 11.9 on my computer and now whenever I try to play any kind of video a box comes up from Adobe asking me to give permission to store things on my computer. The boxes are all from adobe but the sites in the boxes differ. Should I say yes? This is scary to me--virus paranoia.

You may have the box for 'Ask me before allowing sites...' or 'Block all...' checked in System Preferences - Flash Player, as pictured below... If so, try the 'allow' one instead, or if you prefer, continue to deny/allow when prompted.

When playing games on Facebook, why do I keep getting requests to store information on my computer?

When playing games on Facebook, why do I keep getting requests to store information on my computer?When playing games on Facebook, why do I keep getting requests to store information on my computer?

Welcome to the forum.
Exactly what program is throwing that request message?
Does that message list any details, such as WHAT will be written/saved to your computer?
As ATR mentions, I am not sure how PrE figures into the mix. I would anticipate that your message is coming from FaceBook, or from the OS, or from your anti-virus/anti-malware program.
Regardless, be VERY wary of any program, or Web site, that wants to write to your computer, unless you have delibertly invoked something that you DO want to do so.
Good luck,
Hunt

Repeatedly, this error code suddenly appears on the screen and I don't have a clue what it means or what to do: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?
No Yes"

Hi,
Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
A web page can include javascript.
Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

Requesting permission to store info on Macbook Pro

Hi
Slight concern regarding the following pop-up's;
I usually click 'ALLOW' when a website might display this type of pop-up window, even though I do not have adobe installed on my Macbook Pro.
However, I'm curious when I click 'ALLOW' what is actually being stored and where, on my Macbook Pro? Is there anything I should be concerned about?

No, uninstalling Flash won't necessarily clear it's cache, you have to do that first in the Flash preference pane in System Preferences before you uninstall it.
See here
How to install/uninstall Flash, fix problems
There are browser plugins like Click & Clean for Firefox, CCCleaner for Mac, OnyX that can delete the Flash and other caches also.
If illegal crap popped on your machine by a trick link, it's perhaps best to backup only your files (not the entire Users folder) to a external storage drive and wipe and install OS X
Most commonly used backup methods
A hard drive the Macintosh HD partition should be zero erased first.
Erase, formatting, OS X installs on Mac's
SSD's can't be securely erased only the data on it overwritten, fill the SSD up nearly full, then repeat and delete the fill data.
How do I securely delete data from the machine?

Some videos do not play when "Block all sites from storing information on this computer" is selected

I have CS5 installed on my i Mac, running OS X Lion 10.7.5. Using Firefox, I have been having trouble with Adobe TV and the other instructional video's, however some of the video's promoting the new products do work (not all), but when I right click the menu gives me an option that shows flash player 11. whatever is working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the version that came with my CS5 Design Premium only to be told that to play the video's I have to update my flash player, when I do then the same nothing happens again.
I can however run the video's on my iPad2 with Safari, haven't set up yet with Firefox. This is becoming a real pain to make room on my desk to view both screens so that I can use the tutorials, video's and tips while working on the various programs. I have checked all of the forum questions that have anything close to my issue to solve the problem. Unfortuately none of the suggestions posted so far have helped.
If anyone has any other suggestions for me I would be truly grateful.
Thank you, Tess.

I know that you have to confirm some of these settings and the exact
versions Installed and Running to troubleshoot an issue. Believe me that I
have been trying to resolve this issue for some time now using every
suggestion that I can find online (your forums and other site forums). I
have uninstalled and reinstalled some dozen times over the last couple of
months trying to correct whatever happened to cause this problem, I will
continue trying to look for other conflicts or blocks of some kind that may
have come from some update. I haven't updated my OS yet until some of the
issues are resolved by Apple, the college I attend updated the lab computers
and now we cannot scan directly into Photoshop CS4 anymore. I have CS5
Design Premium but just in case I will hold off for a while to upgrade.
If I find the issue on my own I will send the information to you so that if
anyone else has the same problem perhaps they won't have so many headaches
to fix the issue. See below and attached for all the screens and versions
that I am currently running for Flash Player, Firefox and the graphics card

Flash page brings up a download window to store info on my computer

when using an Adobe flash page a small window appears requiring a download (usually 10kb) to get past the grayed-out covering of the flash item. Ad blocker can stop download window, but then the flash page will not appear for use. Quote:
"Adobe Flash Player Settings
Local Storage
cdn.arenaconnect.arkadiumhosted.com is requesting permission to store information on your computer. Requested: up to 10 KB
Currently Used: 0 kb (with) Allow & Deny buttons "
Of course, the "request" makes it impossible to get past the Deny to the flash page.
