Possible Flash bug? Won't work correctly on windows7, explorer11

I have a problem with Adobe Flash. It seems to fail or to work correctly and am trying to debug the problem to see if it an Adobe bug or something else.
I have two laptops old and new side by side to troubleshoot, both use same version of windows 7 home, internet explorer 11, adobe flash, directx 11, nortons, etc..
But the newer faster i5 laptop Adobe Flash keeps craping out on.
- I have checked (compared) all explorer security settings between computer all seem the same.
- Flash is Enabled in internet explorer 11, add-ons
- latest flash version has been installed and has been reinstalled (even a saved copy to disk and run offline from disk).
- flushed out explorer 11 cache
- flushed out adobe cache
- active x filtering is off
- reboots done of computer.
I find this a tad frustrating as what is causing flash to malfunction, anyone got any ideas to try?.
on https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
it indicates that i have the latest version installed
on the Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Global Privacy Settings Panel
none of the panels will display
but on the http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
it does not display the small version information window saying you have x.x.x.x installed nor does the red bouncing adobe box display like on my older laptop. but when you click on the gobal settings menu it indates that you have the latest version installed..
example: playing an online flash game, www.volvooceanrace.com the game loads asks to log in, and then you hear some sounds and and then seems to not load, proceed any further, or locks up. There are a 170,000 daily players using this flash game.

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Flash Pro CC Debug won't work correctly

Hello. I am using trial version of Flash Pro CC and I think it's a glitch.
If there are multiple layers that have own frame script and run Debut(ctrl + alt + enter ), debug won't work correctly.
for example there are 2 layers on main stage Layer A and Layer B..
Layer A has this one trace script,
trace("1");
Layer B has those 2 trace scripts.
trace("2");
trace("3);
And I put breakpoint on trace("1"); of Layer A, and run Debug and use "Step In" to run all scripts manually.
And if trace("1"); is finished, you are supposed to get to trace("2"); but instead you will get to trace("3"); in this case.
I mean little yellow arrow, which tells me what script is running right now, is marked on trace("3");.. not on trace("2");
It seems Flash pro CC thinks Layer A's trace("1"); == Layer B's trace("2"). He can't recognize Layer A and Layer B are different.
I think it's a glitch. Does anybody notice this glitch?

Does anybody notice this glitch? I want to check if it's really a glitch or not before using newest version of Flash CC.
If it's a glitch, I will stick with CS6.

Seem to have tried everything. i.e. chrome, firebird, archived flash players, etc. All not supported. Any insight??? It started when I tried to upgrade current flash player and it said I needed to uninstall current version, which I did, and then it wouldn't download the current one giving me the not supported story! Please help!!!!!!

Hi Andy, that is correct, they don't support PPC Macs anymore.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!

I'm sorry. I was hoping it would work for you. I have to delete it about
once a day and reinstall it. It is really getting on my nerves. You are
talking about deleting and reinstalling right? Sorry I'm not in the forum

Flash player won't work after a successful download

About my Mac:
OS X version 10.8.4
1.3 GHz
Safari: version 6.0.5
I have installed and unistalled flash player several times, and even restarted my computer. I followed all the steps to do so correctly, but the Flash Player won't work at all. Youtube and other websites give me error messages when I try to watch a video. They say "missing plug-in".
I really can't seem to find the problem.
(For what this info is worth: I just got my computer a couple days ago)

Spry Menu Bar won't work correctly.

This is an image of what the overall menu bar layout should be like-all of the links and sublinks.
I have a few problems that I am having all relating to the spry menu bar.
I ran my code through w3c validation service but it came up with alot of errors which when corrected didn't make sense or work either.
I made this menu bar in a widget called spry menu bar 2.0. I then edited it to place in the correct names and it doesn't work correctly and the w3c validation code seems to have 43 errors with the spry bar. I am been over it a dozen times and I can't seem to figure it out. Here is the code.
Also, have I made the links correctly?
I would appreciate any help you could offer! thank you

/* Settable values for skinning a Basic menu via presets. If presets are not sufficient, most skinning should be done in
    these rules, with the exception of the images used for down or right pointing arrows, which are in the file SpryMenuBasic.css
     These assume the following widget classes for menu layout (set in a preset)
    .MenuBar - Applies to all menubars - default is horizontal bar, all submenus are vertical - 2nd level subs and beyond are pull-right.
    .MenuBarVertical - vertical main bar; all submenus are pull-right.
    You can also pass in extra classnames to set your desired top level menu bar layout. Normally, these are set by using a preset.
    They only apply to horizontal menu bars:
        MenuBarLeftShrink - The menu bar will be horizontally 'shrinkwrapped' to be just large enough to hold its items, and left aligned
        MenuBarRightShrink - Just like MenuBarLeftShrink, but right aligned
        MenuBarFixedLeft - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedLeft', and left aligned.
        MenuBarFixedCentered - - Fixed at a specified width set in the rule '.MenuBarFixedCentered',
                        and centered in its parent container.
        MenuBarFullwidth - Grows to fill its parent container width.
    In general, all rules specified in this file are prefixed by #MenuBar so they only apply to instances of the widget inserted along
    with the rules. This permits use of multiple MenuBarBasic widgets on the same page with different layouts. Because of IE6 limitations,
    there are a few rules where this was not possible. Those rules are so noted in comments.

/* IE6 rules - you can delete these if you do not want to support IE6 */
/* A note about multiple classes in IE6.
* Some of the rules above use multiple class names on an element for selection, such as "hover" (MenuItemHover) and "has a subMenu" (MenuItemWithSubMenu),
* giving the selector '.MenuItemWithSubMenu.MenuItemHover'.
* Unfortunately IE6 does not support using mutiple classnames in a selector for an element. For a selector such as '.foo.bar.baz', IE6 ignores
* all but the final classname (here, '.baz'), and sets the specificity accordingly, counting just one of those classs as significant. To get around this
* problem, we use the plugin in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js to generate compound classnames for IE6, such as 'MenuItemWithSubMenuHover'.
* Since there are a lot of these needed, the plugin does not generate the extra classes for modern browsers, and we use the CSS2 style mutltiple class
* syntax for that. Since IE6 both applies rules where
* it should not, and gets the specificity wrong too, we have to order rules carefully, so the rule misapplied in IE6 can be overridden.
* So, we put the multiple class rule first. IE6 will mistakenly apply this rule. We follow this with the single-class rule that it would
* mistakenly override, making sure the misinterpreted IE6 specificity is the same as the single-class selector, so the latter wins.
* We then create a copy of the multiple class rule, adding a '.SpryIsIE6' class as context, and making sure the specificity for
* the selector is high enough to beat the single-class rule in the "both classes match" case. We place the IE6 rule at the end of the
* css style block to make it easy to delete if you want to drop IE6 support.
* If you decide you do not need IE6 support, you can get rid of these, as well as the inclusion of the SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js script.
* The 'SpryIsIE6' class is placed on the HTML element by the script in SpryMenuBarIEWorkaroundsPlugin.js if the browser is Internet Explorer 6. This avoids the necessity of IE conditional comments for these rules.

Disc that needs flash player won't work

I have a disc that goes with my textbook for class that
requires the use of the flash player. I bought a new computer for
school that has Windows Vista. I installed the flash player 9, but
the disc still won't play. The flash player works for sites on the
internet, but not for the disc. I tried it on an older computer
that had flash player 7 and it worked fine. But, I heard the Flash
Player 7 won't work with Vista. Is there anything that I can do
about this. Buying a computer was a waste of money if I can't use
it for school - which is why I bought it.

Hi Andy, that is correct, they don't support PPC Macs anymore.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!
Or smaller here...

Adobe Flash Player Won't work!

I am trying to use Adobe Flash Player on my account on me and my brother's computer. We have Windows 7. My brother's account's Flash Player works fine on his, but my account, no matter what I do, won't let player work. I thought it had something to do with our antivirus program, Kaspersky PURE 3.0, but turning it off or temporarily disabling it doesn't seem to help at all. Please help me ASAP, thanks!

Sorry I didn't explain that. "Won't Work" means that when I try to play a game on the internet that uses Flash Player, it won't start (usually just has a black window where the game should start up).

Adobe Flash Player won't work with Firefox

Hi, I have Adobe Flash Player 10.3 on my computer, but it won't work on Firefox 5.0.1. It isn't even mentioned anywhere in the Firefox Add-ons and Plug-ins tab. Can I use it?

My Flash Player won't work ?

Any ideas why my flash player on a 64bit machine with Windows 8 won't work. It opens up, freezes, then says 'not responding'. I really need it. :-(

Hi Rebecca,
Sorry you're encountering problems. What browser are you using?
Thanks,
Chris

Flash player won't work Win7 IE8

Apart from not being able to download flash-player from the Adobe Downloads section (for some reason I don't get a prompt to download it at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer). Flash player itself doesn't seem to be working correctly.
I have downloaded install_flash_player_ax.exe from a direct link on one of these forum discussions. I once had adobe flash-player installed (or so I thought that it was installed) however it appeared to be incapable of working (on some webpages I see a "broken" red x icon); so I uninstalled it. Now that I reinstalled it (disabling Norton) it does the same thing: "broken" image. I checked in control panel>programs & features and it did indeed say that Adobe Flash PLayer 10 ActivX was installed.
Note: I did uninstall it with uninstall_flash_player.exe and rebooted the computer

Thanks again. I just did a quick review of Spybot and they say there should not be any incompatibility issues with Norton.
Then I did a Search trying to see if Spybot have an Anti-Virus component which would conflict with Norton. They categorize a Trojan as included as Spyware and some AV's call it a Virus. The terms sort of blend as to the definitions of each type of Malware.
The S&D Helper is sort of difficult to explain. It comes with Spybot, but many users turn it off since it's hard to understand and pops up alerts very frequently. I haven't used it in a few years so can't say if it still has that annoying habit:-)
Something is blocking the FP ActiveX Control that we know. I know the Administrator Account needs to be used and normally you would receive a message from Adobe Flash Player if that was the issue.
Did you Disable Norton this way?
Right Click and Open Norton. Turn off Smart Firewall and Auto Protect
Under Miscellaneous Settings, Disable Norton Product Tamper Protection
1- Open IE 8. Goto Tools -> Manage Add-ons.
2- Disable the following:
-Norton Toolbar
-Symantec NCO BHO
-Symantec Intrusion Prevention (IPS)
Did you have the same Anti-Virus programs when you updated Flash Player prior to this latest version? Did you have any problems as you are having now?
Since something is blocking that ActiveX Control and we can pretty much rule out Administrator and Kill-bit, then Anti-Virus or Malware are about the only 2 things that could be involved.
Is your System a 32bit or 64bit? If it's a 64bit are you using the 32bit browser?
Thanks,
eidnolb

Now that I have installed OSX Lion, my flash player won't work.

After I installed OSX Lion a few days ago my flash player suddenly stopped working. It won't let me update (it says I have the newest version) and when say, I try to watch a YouTube video a little box comes up over the player with settings and the "allow" button but no matter if I use the trackpad or the keyboard I can't select anything.
It's getting really annoying because I can't play games, watch videos or video share online anymore and I have no idea how to fix it.
Is it just something that will be stuck until Adobe releases a version that isn't beta for OSX 10.7?

This allows me to watch videos which is great but still when I try to play any flash games or enable a webcam on something other than iChat, Skype or Photobooth the dialog box comes up and even using tab and space bar like Adobe suggests doesn't seem to work. :-/
Glad to be able to watch videos again though

Flash player won't work IE - Windows 7

@@Since I installed a new graphic card, Flash player keeps giving troubles (in both IE and Firefox).
First the problem was this:
- I had to reïnstall Flash each time I rebooted my computer.
Then I tried to fix this using a program provided by Adobe (SubinAcl), which should have resolved this problem. However, the problem got worse instead. Now the problem is this:
- Flash won't work at all.
I did almost every action found on the internet for this problem:
Reïnstalling Flash, seems to work perfectly
- Flash player is enabled via 'manage add-ons'
- DirectX filtering is disabled at all times
- The last programm installed according to my control panel even is Flash Player 15
- As said, I installed a programm provided by Adobe, but this even made the problem worse
But, if I do the Flash check of Adobe, it sais there is no Flash player
So everything seems to say, there is Flash player installed, however, I still can't view Flash content. Very, very annoying. Please help me with this.
Greetings, Gerjan

Flash player won't work on any browsers

For some reason, flash won't work on any browsers. I've tried Chrome, Safari and Firefox. I have always had to click on any flash element to load it however now, it just says I have to install flash. I have tried re-installing flash, uninstalling flash (checked it wasn't still in macHD/library etc)
I've searched around for any ideas that might work but can't find anything that's working. Does anyone have any suggestions!?

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 6
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 7
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 8
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
