Shockwave flash keeps giving problems
I have read all the articles about the shockwave flash problem but it keeps giving problems, saying it is busy or does nt react anymore, continue or stop.
If I continue nothing happens, if I stop the web-page disapears.
Should I use another browser ? I'm fond of Firefox but what to do?
I'm using W 8.1 and the latest Flash (15.0.0.152)
Thank you in advance for reacting.

You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
*check for updates for your graphics drive drivers<br>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

You can also try to uninstall and reinstall Flash

Note that this will remove all installed Flash players.

Hello Teals58,
see: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
if you like [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Disabling_Protected_Mode_in_Flash_11.3 Disabling Protected Mode in Flash 11.3] and check it again, before uninstall, maybe works that way !

Shockwave Flash Keeps Coming Up With A Window That Has A Unresponsive Plugin?
The Shockwave Flash window keeps coming up when I am on the Internet. Most of the time. It says Warning: Unresponsive Plugin. Shockwave Flash may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the plugin now, or you can continue to see if the plugin will complete. I need help fixing this issue. I am using Firefox also. Let me know how to resolve this issue. I appreciate it. Thanks.

Why Does Shockwave Flash Keeps Crashing In Firefox?
I've been using adobe shockwave flash player with no problem for the last six years. Recently I brought a new computer, windows vista and downloaded the adobe reader and shockwave player.
Everytime I go to watch a video on the internet flash player would crash and a message would pop up saying, "Adobe Flash Player 11.5r502 Has Stopped Working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
I'm using the latest release shockwave 11.5.502.149 and my computer doesn't have any malware or viruses on it.
I would appreciate it greatly if someone could help me with this problem as it means I can't watch any videos at all and because the flash player shuts down everytime I go on adobe.com or youtube, I'm force to disable the program just to stop the constant error messages from popping up.
Really would appreciate any help or advice on how to fix this problem.
I using firefox 19 if that helps.
Does anyone know what data execution prevention is? It keeps popping up after I close adobe.foodjewellerydirect wrote:

Shockwave Flash keeps crashing. How do I fix this?
Since I downloaded the new IOS update my Shockwave Flash player keeps crashing. How do I fix this?
jwslymyers,
which version of the Shockwave Flash Player is installed on your MacBook Pro? -
Keystrokes are slow or missing. Shockwave Flash was the problem. THANKS!!
Question say it all. Your solution took care of the problem. Sug67
Wow, ok so I figured out what was wrong.
I have a logitech MX1000 mouse, and I havn't gotten around to installing the drivers yet. When I press down on the wheel It makes all that crazy stuff happen, then when I press down on it again I get the nice little multi colored spinner for about a minute, then everthing works. Go figure? -
I am SOOOOOO sick of this issue. I have posted asking for help, advice and etc... in many different sites including THIS ONE, and no one seems to know how to fix this. For about the last month or so, I have had a problem with my adobe flash, or shockwave flash or what ever the hell you want to call it. I say this last part because I have been told they are the same, and I have been told they are different. Here is a screen shot of the damn pop up box I keep getting, it also shows how I am also often told that I need to install adobe flash to view something even though I DO have it installed already.
The issue: It seems like every couple of mins at times, my browser will freeze, then after a few seconds to mins, I get the above shown pop up box about my unresponsive plugin. Usually when I click the continue button, after a few mins the page continues to work. This usually only lasts a few mins before it freezes again and I get the pop up box AGAIN. Sometimes it stays unfrozen for a while, and I have no issues but this is very rare. Now if I click the stop plugin option, this usually makes adobe flash crash altogether, and I have to refresh everything. Sometimes my page does not unfreeze at all, even after clicking the continue button, my browser does not unfreeze, and I have to open my task manager, and shut it all down manually. As for the other issue, where I am told I have to download adobe flash to view something, this does not happen EVERY time I try viewing something, but it does happen, I would say maybe 2-8 times out of 10 it happens. It has happened while trying to view videos, commercials I get while playing games sometimes, or many other things, I am saying this because I want to make sure you understand it is NOT just when I am on facebook or something, I just happened to take the screenshot above while on FB when it happened this most recent time to make this post here with.
Ok so I have tried a LOT of things to fix this. I more then once tried uninstalling and then reinstalling adobe flash, I did so following the instructions for a CLEAN INSTALL as I was directed by someone else to try. In case the issue was something to do with my anti virus, or fire wall or etc... I have also tried uninstalling, then reinstalling while my windows firewall was turned OFF, as well as my anti virus turned off. I have tried uninstalling my browsers as well, then reinstalling them AFTER reinstalling adobe.
According to the flash checker thing on the adobe site itself, I DO have the most current version installed, I also checked the page to see if it was supposed to be working properly, and according to your site it said my adobe flash WAS working fine, the images and etc... displayed fine. All of my browsers and etc... are also ALL up to date. I have made sure that ALL of my adobe products are up to date, the reader, active x, shockwave, etc...
I have tried everything and yet I still keep getting this message box, and often enough I get the message saying adobe needs to be installed to view something. I had not installed anything, nor had I made any changes to my comp or system prior to this problem starting, though if I am not mistaken, I think I HAD just upgraded to the newest version OF adobe at the time, this was over a month ago now...
I also want to add, so that I don't start getting suggestions to do so... I do not have a virus on my comp. I have checked and rechecked my system using a few different programs like windows defender, malwarebytes, my anti virus Avast!, Spybot Search & Destroy, Microsoft Safety Scanner and possibly other ones as well, and none of them have ever found any malware, adware, or viruses.
As for my system and info: I mostly use firefox (yes most recent version), however recently I did download and try using Google Chrome in order to find out if this was a firefox issue or something, as someone suggested once. I encountered the SAME pop up box, and message while using Google Chrome, as well as while using IE, which tells me even more this is not a "browser" problem, but more an adobe/shockwave/flash or whatever problem. I have windows 7 home premium on my comp, it is the 64-bit operating system.The site will NOT let me post in the "flash player" forum. When I open the list of forums to post in, I see flash player listed, but it is grey in color and you can not click on it. Under the scroll box that gives you the choices of forums to post your question in you see this:
"Why are some locations grayed out? This means that you can view content in these locations, but may not have access to post to them. Or, the content type you've chosen is not available there (i.e. trying to put a blog post in a project where blogs are turned off). Also to move content to "Your documents", "Private discussions" or "Your Videos" you have to be the author."
So tell me HOW the hell am I supposed to post in that forum, when it is not letting me? I have had this problem since back in April, I have tried posting to get help and all I get is complaints I posted in the wrong place, and it is the SITE that is not letting me post in the right place. -
My shockwave flash 11.7 keeps crashing.
My shockwave flash 11.7 keeps crashing. On the internet it says the fix is to go to version 10.3, but adobe blocks me from being able to download an earlier version, Can someone help me with this?
Lisaafter the uninstall procedure completes, you can download and install the older version.
after many hours of trying, 11.7.700.169 is fairly stable on my video cards, but I'm not about to try updating it since there are many problems reported. -

Hello,
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know. -
I have Shockwave Flash 16 and 17 and am running Firefox 37, but youtube videos keep crashing.
Thanks for reporting your solution to Flash lockups, which included reinstalling the Flash plugin after first doing a complete uninstall, including manual removal of leftover Flash files and folders.
For the benefit of others reading, Adobe includes instructions for uninstalling Flash on Windows in their own help article (linked from the Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems Firefox article) which is:
