Problems with Flash on Vista

I recently got Windows Vista and have been having problems
with it. Right now, the problem is in Flash (7, I think). I assume
it's caused by Vista because it didn't happen on XP.
So the problem seems to be that whenever I drag the tools
around, Flash closes itself. I've already lost two sessions of
work. Since I'm prone to accidentally clicking a few pixels off the
tool icon and dragging across the screen, I'm thinking this will
happen a lot more. So I guess a solution would be to lock the tools
in place, but I can't find the option anywhere. So if anyone knows,
it'd be great to let me know. And if anyone knows of a better
solution, that'd be wonderful too.
:]

well i have vista too and flash 8 and it is working perfect
for me so i don't what to tell you.

Problems with flash in vista - Not IE RELATED

Just got a new laptop yesterday with:
vista home premium 32 bit
amd 64x2
1g ram
I like to play poker (just play money) on carbon poker and
poker.com
I installed the programs and went to play on them. The
program loads fine, functions fine in the menus and game lists.
But when I join a game (i.e. there are moving symbols-cards,
chips, chat bubbles) the game window freezes within 5-10 secs,
basically as soon as something on the table moves.
At this point none of the buttons in the table window work.
However, I can go into the lobby (no moving symbols) and exit the
program.
After exiting the program I get an error stating:
"this program requires a missing windows component" blah blah
the details state:
"this program requires flash.ocx, which is no longer included
with this version of windows"
The solution tells me to install the latest version of flash,
which I did.
Same problem.
I have tried uninstalling flash and installing full version
(separate file, not browser based install) - no luck
I have tried installing flash 7 and 8 - no luck
I have tried copying flash9.ocx and renaming it flash.ocx -
no luck
I have tried setting program to run compatible with win xp
sp2 - no luck
I have searched every forum, google search string, adobe, and
ms sites - no luck
I have tried installing a version of carbon poker from vista
downloads - no luck
As far as I can tell, this program needs flash to function
properly in the games. I don't know if there is a problem with
where vista puts flash and the program is looking elsewhere for it
or what.
Can someone please help me figure out how to get these
programs to run? They are not browser based, they are separate
programs run from an exe.
Thanks in advance.

Tech support told me the problem could be caused by flash
unexpectedly terminating. Is there any way to prevent this from
happening? The laptop is a Compaq and came with shloads of garbage
software on it that could be causing the complications. Any
suggestions on where to start? Thanks in advance.

Flash Player 11.3 beta 1 & 2

I have problem with Flash Player. Full screen doesn't work correctly. Turning off hardware acelleration helps but I want this option to work.

Problem exist only on YouTube. When i want get full screen, I have black screen with audio. If I click few times full screen button it helps, but I want to go to full screen by one click.
If i turn off hardware acceleration everything is ok but vids looks terrible.
I have this problem with Flash Player 10. No 9 works good, but some websites wants no. 10

Generaly FP works, but problem is that i must press few times full screen button. Now i have turn off hardware accelleration, but movies are quite bad.
I have already installed newest graphic drivers but it didn't help.
Everything was good unless Flash Player and Mozilla notificated that update is necessary :<

Problems with Safari in vista

I'm having some problems with Safari in Vista.
I recently wiped my hard drive, and reinstalled Windows. Anyway reinstalling programs and I've come into a problem.
When I open Safari it gets stuck loading. It does this with any site.
All my other browsers work fine, and even with the firewall and stuff turned off it won't work. It worked fine before, but now it just won't do anything. Not even a page won't display thing.
It just gets stuck. Anyone know how to get it to work? Thanks.

Is java 1.6.0.3 latest version installed?
have you tried removing the two user folders that Safari uses to store prefs, bookmarks, history and cache in? (don't delete, just rename or move aside).
For now, FF 3.0A is probably a better choice until later anyway. There are WebKit latest builds, but I don't know how to use or install those in Windows, but would be 10-19-2007 of the core foundation Safari uses.

Problems with flash Player

So I'm having a problem with flash player, and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing, or might be able to help.
- Upgraded 2 computers to snow leopard, macbook pro laptop, and mac Pro tower (intel proc).
- Laptop has no problems, everything renders fine, and without any difficulty.
- Mac Pro doesn't display any dynamic data, text fields show up blank, some flash player controls don't work, brightcove player won't load completely... things are just not working right.
- Main browser is Safari, but same problem exists in Camino, Firefox, etc...
- I've had Safari Stand installed, but have since removed it.
- I've removed GROWL notifications completely
- I've got debug and developer menus turned on (but have that with the laptop also.)
Please see the screenshot attached. This graph should have text data on it showing the x/y axis, the key, as well as data when you mouse over each block, but doesn't show anything.
The second screen shot shows a brightcove player from our website... There should have full controls at the bottom, and nothing shows up. If I right-click, and go to 'view full screen', I can't then get out of full screen by clicking escape key on the keyboard, I have to use any player controls, or right-click again, and hit 'exit full screen'.
Anyone have any suggestions? It's something to do with my computer, rather than snow leopard, because flash works fine on my laptop, but not on the desktop. Any help is really appreciated !

Hi!
I reached your post because I was having the exact same issues as you and I found a fix that worked for me! The problem is a font issue: I logged in with the guest account that had no users font installed and flash was working fine, so I logged back into my account and moved all the fonts in my 'User>Library>Fonts' folder in a folder in the desktop. Then I closed and reopened Safari and Flash was working!
In the end the problem was with a version of Arial that I had in my users' font folder: I deleted just that, put my users' font back in the folder and the problem disappeared.
I hope it hepls!
best

Problems with Flash Video

OK - I have had intermittent problems with Flash video, basically it gets choppy, usually after about 20 minutes - half an hour of watching - recently this problem has gotten worse - coinciding with a recent system update perhaps? - it's more or less anytime I stream something, and it happens on all browsers, even when the movie has clearly downloaded and is buffered way in advance of the playhead.
On 2 occasions recently leaving the movie to play just to see what happens has led to a kernel panic.
I've heard alot about Flash video generally being a resource hog and not playing ball sometimes - is there a way to solve this issue? Things I have tried - reset sound to 16 bit 44.1 khz in audio/midi manager; fixed permissions; run Tech Tool - everything seems to be fine hardware wise - I think there are some incompatible driver issues that are meesing up RAM usage but have no idea what or how to solve this... Any ideas anybody?
Thanks.

If, as you show, you are running 10.5.2, that is out of date. You need to install the 10.5.8 combo updater.
It is also possible that your FlashPlayer is out of date.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Ongoing problems with Flash in Firefox 8

I am still having problems with Flash player since upgrading to Firfox 8 - see previous posts.
Symptoms:
When I try to access any flash containing page, the flash content does not load or play - the area it should be is blank or shrunk out - not even a token jpeg.
What I have tried:
Checked Flash is installed and enabled and up to date - all OK.
Tried re-installing Flash anyway - no effect.
Tried uninstalling flash and re-installing - this fixes the problem temporarily, but as soon as I shut down and restart, the problem returns.
Tried disabling other add ons - makes no difference. Only addon in this area is Freecorder toolbar.
Tried updating settings in Windows Firewall to ensure Firefox is allowed - no change.
Ensured my anti-virus/spyware program (PC Tools Anti-virus) is not blocking any of the websites - nothing there.
Checked situation in IE (Yuck!) - works fine there.

No response to this, and problem has not gone away. Looks like I am going to have to change browser....

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
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.

I'm having problems with Flash Videos (Youtube and ESPN)

I have been having this problem for the last couple of days now and it is really annoying. Whenever I watch a flash video like on youtube or espn my computer freezes up and the audio will make a loud buzzing sound. I have attached a video with the post so you can see what happens. I don't have problems with anything else except this. I also get this error no matter what browser I use. I have system restored my PC as far as I can go, and I've ran a ton of scans and driver update checks and nothing seems to work.

merci a tous pour les nombreuses réponse. j'ai dû mal a les lire vue que je ne lit que le français. je vous remercié encore une fois amicalement. Blanchette 2.

In the dialog box for the Flash Button, in the link box, put
the full
absolute path if an external page. Including the
http:// part.
http://www.example.com/page.html
for pages inside your site- use the browse to file icon, and
use a relative
path.
