Send Adobe Flash crash repot link is missing

When Adobe Flash crashes, I just get the gray screen that informs me that it has crashed. When I look at me home page I see info about how if I want to send a report I just need to click the link, "send crash report". That link is NOT on that gray page. When I look in the Firefox preferences, Advanced, General, there is NO check box for turning the crash report on and off. So, when Adobe Flash crashes, I am unable to report the crash. I also used the plugin check to see if Adobe Flash needed an update, Adobe Flash did and when I selected what would be the appropriate version,{apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=$distro-partner}, Firefox said, "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program." so I picked the version for Ubuntu 8.04,{http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/completion/?installer=Flash_Player_10.1_for_Linux_(.deb)}.Downloaded and Installed. Then I come back to plugin check and Firefox still says Adobe Flash needs to be updated.
Ubuntu 9.04, Kernel Linux 2.6.28-19-generic, GNOME 2.26.1, Firefox 3.6.8, 1.9GB memory, AMD Athlon 64x2 Dual-Core processor TK-57

Adobe flash crash when I try to upload photos to created album on Facebook . Is this related to the new version of Mozilla Firefox that I installed few days ago.

Did you reinstall CS3 after CC?
For that matter, doing an in-place upgrade on the OS is always a gamble with Adobe programs. Reinstalling all the versions you need, in order, would probably solve your problem.
And you shouldn't need to save as IDML after opening the .inx in CC.

Adobe Flash crashes and other questions about Flash

There have been several instances of Adobe Flash crashes whether I am using Firefox, IE or Google Chrome browsers - and simply reloading the page corrects this BUT recurs again and again.
I'm running Windows 8.1 64bit in which the Flash program apparently comes embedded in the OS as a 32/64 bit hybrid. When I inspect the Flash version add-on in Firefox, and run an update check, Adobe reports, correctly, that my system is Windows 64bit , English, Firefox. Then, when I do the same in Windows Internet Explorer by checking the embedded version, I get a message that KB2999249 is available for download to correct Flash issues in IE. Since that install, Flash hasn't crashed in IE [yet].
So, my question is: How can I be certain that when Firefox reports that Flash is "up-to-date" that it is indeed a 64bit compatible version? Note that the Adobe download site only identifies one available version for Firefox, IE and Google - the current version being 15.0.0.152 file: NPSWF32_15_0_0_152.
Does the "32" part of the file name suggest that it is a 32bit application and, if so, where can I find NPSWF64_15_o_o_152 [if it exists]?
''edited the title of this thread to reflect the questions asked''

I now understand the version nuances between the browsers and thanks for the response. Now what, if anything, can I do to address the continuum of Flash crashes since I find it difficult to believe that I'm the only user experiencing this anomaly?

Adobe flash crashes only in Firefox.

This is driving me nuts. Adobe flash crashes every time in multiple sites. I have reset Firefox, uninstalled every add on to test them. Right now there are no add on's (post resetting Firefox).
Going down the list of fixes here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/adobe-flash-plugin-has-crashed
-Yes, the plugins are all up to date
-I cannot disable acceleration because if I right click on the red box (located here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues), I get the message that the shockwave flash plugin is busy or ahs stopped working
Help!

I'm not seeing the plugin-container or the Flash plugin in the screenshot.
You would have to check when page that uses Flash is open.
You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
*check for updates for your graphics drive drivers https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Yoga 13: Adobe Flash crashing with Transitions?

Whenever I have Firefox open and flip from laptop to tent or tablet mode, Adobe Flash crashes. This is a major annoyance because really the only time I go from laptop to tent or tablet mode is when I am watching a video within Firefox. I've searched Google but haven't found anything... I have the latest version of Flash (11.6.602.180) and the latest version of Transitions I've found on this horrible Lenovo site.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem, and have you found a fix? Thanks in advance!

I, too am having this issue - however instead of crashing, my PC usually slows down. For anyone at Lenovo that cares to actually test this issue - just open up any web browser and watch a YouTube video. Play the video in laptop mode. Then when you're done, switch to tablet mode and play it again. That same video will either become choppy or crash. Likewise, when I try to use a program to play DRM videos (Vudu) or play flash-enabled games I have the same issue. I have tried to look at task manager and do a comparison of programs running before and after transition to tablet mode, and all I can see is a .1% spike in memory usage by Lenovo Transition.
I think this is a more recent problem as I don't remember this being an issue from the start, but I can't identify how recent. I used to play a game called SoulCraft from the Windows 8 store back in January. This game is most easily played in tablet mode, and it played perfectly. It quickly got old and I stopped playing after about a week. I came back to it about 4 weeks ago but it was choppy in tablet mode. When in laptop mode it plays fine. So I reckon that this issue came with a software update that occurred sometime between late Jan and early Apr. That's just my speculation, though. I have also installed/uninstalled programs which may be messing with the transition software.

A couple of things:
* Upgrade to Firefox 13 (you're currently running 12). Select Firefox > Help > About Firefox to upgrade.
* Check if your Flash plugin is out of date on this page: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/. If it is, follow the instructions on the page for upgrading Flash.
Hope this helps!

Why do you give contradicting advice on Adobe Flash crashing?

I have recently updated to latest version of Firefox, then also to latest version of Adobe Flash (11.3). My games (not fb games) & some videos from articles in my homepage have continually crashed. I'm tired of sending 'crash reports' but nothing being done. So I came here to find out & saw that YOU recommended uninstalling Adobe Flash 11.3 & instead install earlier version of either 10.3 or 11.2--with 10.3 having all the security patches. Well I did (10.3) & when I click on the 'check your plugins' from here, you tell me I need to UPdate my version of Flash Player. What???
You have totally confused me now. What do you suggest NOW? I pay money for these games on my PC & the crashes are really getting to the point that I don't want to play them or even try to watch the video news from my homepage anymore! Please get back to me on this with some kind of solution.
Thank You So Much
Peace & Blessings

Hi PatTra,
Sorry you are having problems.
Uninstall Flash 11.3 using adobe's installer and reinstall either the secure version 10.3 or take a risk on the less secure, but better featured 11.2. Follow the instructions in
* [[flash 11.3 crashes]]
If you have any type of RealPayer software installed please mention that. (I note you did not paste troubleshooting information in when you asked the question)
Please read the article, try the downgrade and post back with how you get on.
Hope that helps, John
I have added more info under that some users may be interested in
CRASHES
It is helpful to submit crash reports, but you will not normally not get any specific reply about a solution. If you need a solution then you should look at
*[[Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes]]
*and [[Send plugin crash reports to help Mozilla improve Firefox]]
I think Firefox could make that clear when users submit crash reports, but I suspect the thinking is that this support forum would be totally overwhelmed if any more than a minute proportion of crashes resulted in a forum visit and potentially a question being asked.
Techi Info for anyone interested, and reading this thread on the forum https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/931368
Problems affect Windows Vista and above Firefox with Flash 11.3,and relate to a security feature known as ''protected mode'' . Developers from Flash and Firefox have been working on the problem for quite a few days, and RealPlayer developers are investigating also. Some useful links

What can I do about my Adobe flash crashing which in turns causes my Plugin Container to Hog the CPU and Mem?

Ok. I have read several different fixes on several different forums, but so far I haven't heard of a solid fix. My Adobe Flash Plugin keeps crashing on my computer. Its getting slightly irritating. I have been to the Adobe forums and the only answers I seem to get over their is finger pointing at your Graphics card being the problem. I know mine isn't because it is brand new. I can run any top end game on my system and my system will barely lag if at all, so I know it isn't memory and Graphics related, yet when I go to load a few tabs on Facebook, The Browser will start lagging real bad and eventually either hang completely or Adobe Flash will crash. I don't believe it is a Firefox issue, although the New Firefox Beta's do have issues they are working on resolving. I firmly believe it is either a compatibility issue somewhere between Adobe or it is just a programming problem in Adobe. I dunno tho. Like I said It is getting really frutrating having to send an error report and either reload the page or shut the browser down completely and restart the Firefox. Does Anyone have any ideas as to whats going on or any Solid fixes? Please don't tell me to talk to the people over at Adobe again. lol. If I hear Its a problem on your end one more time I will scream. lol.

Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''' and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools '''('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' as well as Firefox's hardware acceleration which can also be manually disabled via '''Tools''' > '''Options '''> '''Advanced '''> '''General '''> '''Use hardware acceleration when available'''. If it is okay in safe mode + all plugins disabled except Flash, you can try to narrow down the cause from there.

Adobe flash crashing programs?

Yesterday I updated Adobe Flash Player, and now I am having all kinds of unnatural behavior on my MacAir.
MS Word crashes, or freezes and Pages is not working properly. there is a constant loud whirr like the guts of the MacAir are about to fly out.
My computer is now freezing.
Am I correct in assuming it is the Flash Player, or what should I check?
Can I get along ok without the Flash? I would like to just dump it!

Do you think you responded to an update after going to a website, rather than an actual Adobe update ?
I ask as does the last respondent, as there are a couple of false updates on the web at present
see this link if you got this type of update request
http://www.intego.com/mac-security-blog/new-flashback-variant-changes-tack-to-in fect-macs/
If not, then you can always remove Flash, there is an uninstaller via the Adobe site
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
Then just run Google Chrome to get to flash sites, as it's got a built in flash player.
At least this way you'll know for sure if flash is the culprit.

Adobe flash crashes in gmail

Using Gmail, I get a message saying Adobe Flash has crashed and prompting me to reload or report the problem. I didn't have this issue until I switched to the 4 Beta version of Firefox. Is there a flash upgrade I should apply?

Hi,
Hardware Acceleration
You may want to go to this site: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. Right click on the Flash logo, Settings,
then UNcheck the hardware acceleration in Display Settings.
Then use each browser to test here:
Can you see the Flash logo animation(spinning) and what version of Flash Player is Displayed?
As far as I know the latest Flash Player version was on 2/8/11.

Adobe Flash Crashes in ALL YouTube Videos, Regardless of Browser

Every single YouTube video will crash Adobe Flash, regardless of browser. I've gone from Firefox 3.6, to the beta/minefield? version of Firefox 4, and i've even tried Chrome. Regardless of browser, it will crash Adobe Flash. As you can understand this problem is exceptionally frustrating to me as my desktop computer has Firefox 3.6, with the same extensions and adobe flash installed with no issue whatsoever.
I have no changed anything to my system except for installing Microsoft Silverlight which I thought would've been the problem but sadly it didn't fix my issue after an uninstallation and cleaning of any registry entries with CCleaner.
I am currently on a clean install of firefox 4 with flash. It still crashes. I have no made any changes to my system. As far as I understand Adobe Flash has not updated their software within the last week, and if it has, my desktop computer has been regularly updating itself with no issues whatsoever.
One last thing to mention. It used to work prior to yesterday. I have absolutely no idea what would cause across every single browser aside from either something system configuration related, or something in Flash itself.
I can't even right click and go to Flash "settings" to change hardware acceleration options to determine whether or not it is some kind of system incompability. Not that there should be one being that my software configuration worked prior to the past two days.
I don't know if there was a Flash update recently but my desktop machine doesn't exhibit these issues and I have let it update some Adobe software recently but my netbook has been exhibiting this extremely frustrating problem for the past two days.
Anyway, enclosed is a picture of the issue:

Adobe Flash crashes, continually causes Firefox 13.0.1 to crash

Firefox continually crashes (approx. 6-8 times a day or more) due to Adobe Flash player crashing.
I'm running Firefox 13.0.1 and Adobe Flash 11.3.300.262
I noticed that since the second-to-last update of Flash Firefox has been crashing a lot. Before that Firefox crashed 'only' once a day or so.
Over the past few months I've read just about every thread related to Flash & Firefox and I'm not about to spend hours troubleshooting stuff, trying to disable hardware acceleration, etc, etc. I've done that before when the Flash-crash issue started a couple of months ago. (Also, Firefox is sometimes sending you automated crash reports, so you should have that data.) I would expect Firefox to simply "work" reasonably well, and as of the past couple of months or so, it hasn't.
W.T.F, Mozilla? I've used your browsers (Netscape) since the early 90s and have been quite happy - until recently, that is. As of now I'm having to go back to using Internet Explorer.
I sincerely hope Mozilla can finally resolve this issue as I still believe Firefox could be a great browser if it didn't "fight" with Flash all the time.

whatev, For issues using full-screen mode, turn off hardware acceleration in your [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player display settings]:
#Right-click on any Flash video or animation (or on the Flash logo on [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues this Adobe help page]).
#Click "Settings" and uncheck “Enable hardware acceleration" in the Display tab.
This isn't the best workaround since the setting may not hold, for example, if you clear all cookies in Firefox or with an extension such as BetterPrivacy. Updating your display driver would be the best solution,

Adobe Flash crashes every time I use it in Firefox

I am tired of Adobe Flash constantly crashing on me using the latest versions of Firefox and Flash. I have tried updating both Firefox and Flash to the latest versions. I have tried disabling hardware acceleration. I have uninstalled Realplayer. NONE OF THESE RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS have helped. This is making Firefox unusable for me. I am having to use Chrome now. Help me.

Hi savandarm, you may need to disable some advanced features to get Flash to work correctly.
'''(1) Hardware acceleration (triggers graphics card driver incompatibilities)'''
(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here (this takes effect after you restart Firefox):
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
'''(2) Protected mode feature (spawns multiple external Flash processes)'''
The following pages provide different ways to disable the feature:
