Shockwave Flash Plugin not loading properly in Safari 1.3.2

Lately, I've been getting a message in Safari that it attempts to load the Shockwave Flash plugin in, but it's unsuccessful. I think that I've done just about everything possible to corect the problem (uninstalling, installing, fixing permissions, manually deleting associated files...).
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Thanks for the reply.
The Flash media box is indeed unchecked in the QT Sys. pref.'s. And I have IE 5.2.3 installed but never use it. And what's the strangest of all, is that booting up as another user on the same computer, Flash works fine (same sites, same software, etc.). The account that I'm having the problem with is the admin account. The one that works is set up as a Standard account. I've also tried reinstalling it from Macromedia's website, and I simply get an error message stating that I do not have sufficient access (while I'm signed in as Admin. The other account (standard access) allows the install to run smoothly, and as I said above, it works seamlessly.
Thanks again for any insights.
best

  • Shockwave flash plugin not working at all!! HELP

    So, here is my problem, I have windows 8.1 64bit and running the latest mozilla firefox.
    I've had a lot of problems with flash player (32bit), videos not working properly, loading very slow.. (i have fast internet, working good) then i updated flash and it totally stoped working.
    Resetting Firefox does not work for me. Flash player is not working at all, so i had to uninstall it. i uninstalled both flash player and shockwave player. i tried having only flash player - still not working.
    I've already tried these too:
    -Uninstalling and re-installing flash player
    -Uninstalling and re-installing in Safe Mode
    -Turning off hardware acceleration in both Firefox and flash player
    -i have updated all drivers on my computer
    Still not working at all! WHY?

    This add-on will prevent Flash from running on the web page until you want.

    Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it
    won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it
    If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:
    * see if there are 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)
    '''https://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround'''

  • Why are YouTube videos not loading properly on Safari?

    YouTube videos on Safari are not loading properly.  It is as if the YouTube viewing window loads right-justified on the screen. Which ends up being like almost a perfect square on the screen, with the unfortunate result that part of the video is truncated at the right.  The same exact video on Chrome loads just fine.
    I've just updated Flash and the problem persists.
    Here's a screenshot.
    The right part of the image shows a "Google 414 That's an Error" along with the description "The requested URL/adi/N8380.280090.ACCORDANTMEDIA/B7762596.101545485... is too large to process. That’s all we know."
    Is anyone else having the same issue?

    Hi Carlos ...
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
    Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
    Back to Safari. Press Command + Option + E to empty the Safari cache.
    Quit and relaunch Safari, try a video.
    And make Allow all other plug-ins is selected in Safari > Preferences > Security
    Command ,  (comma) will open the Safari preferences pane for you, or from your Safari menu click Safari > Preferences
    If nothing above helped, try troubleshooting Safari extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

  • Facebook not loading properly in Safari. OS - Windows Vista Business

    Hi...every time I try to go to Facebook in my Windows Safari 5.1.7 lately, the pages do not load properly. This is a new problem for me, as I've used Safari for Facebook many times in the past. Here's what the screen looks like when I try to go to any Facebook page...I've reinstalled Safari and looked all over the web for help...HELP!!!

    Try accessing with Internet Explorer and/or FireFox.

  • Facebook is not loading properly in Safari neither in Chrome

    Facebook is not loading in Safari, neither in Chrome. 2 days now. Tried resetting Safari, restarting Mac. facebook works fine on my iPhone 5. It was working fine then I logged out of my account. Logged back in after a while and after waiting a long time a very "basic " looking sceen appears where log in details can be entered but Fb is so distorted i cannot see or navigate

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Test.

  • Gmail and Facebook not loading properly after Safari update.

    I got this message when I tried to check my messages:
    +Some Google Mail features have failed to load due to an Internet connectivity problem. If this problem persists, try reloading the page, using https, using the older version or using basic HTML mode.+
    So I tried using the basic HTML mode which meant i could read my messages, but not send or delete them. This is frustrating.
    After checking other peoples posts on this topic, i tried a few things. Including creating a new user account to check if it was only a problem with my regular user account. That was no dice. Then tried resetting Safari, that didnt work. Also deleted a few random files, for eg: com.apple.Safari.plist.
    But still no joy. Can anyone help please?

    It's not a problem with Safari; it's a problem with your connection, as the error message stated. Your ISP could be having poblems, the Gmail and/or Facebook servers could be having problems, or both. That would cause a problem with the data being trasnmitted and received by the browser, so it can't render everything that should be.
    Did you try downloading another browser such as Firefox to see if it happens there, too?

  • WebPages not loading properly in Safari on iOS5/6

    My WebPages are not working with Safari on iPad iOS6. I have tested my Webpages in IE, Chrome & Safari on Desktop and also tested in Android tablet (default browser) and Mobile Chrome in iPad. I see the pages loads occasionally in iPad Safari (yet not working when navigating to other pages). Everytime when I open the iPad Safari, I used to clear the cache and also I have tried private browsing. Still it is not working.

    Try accessing with Internet Explorer and/or FireFox.

  • Pages not loading properly in Safari (or any other browser)

    My wife just got a new iMac and it's worked perfectly until today.
    Suddenly web pages aren't loading correctly.  No images load--only text and links down the left-hand side.  Here's a pic:
    This happens in Safair, Firefox, Chrome ... nothing we can find seems to fix it.
    I thought the Safari experts might have a solution.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the suggestion, Linc.
    As it turns out, we use an internet filter called Safe Eyes that was preventing images from loading on certain web pages.  This makes sense, since every browser we tried had the exact same problem.
    We changed some of our filter settings and now the pages upload normally.
    Thanks!

  • Facebook not loading properly on safari

    I just turned my computer on after having it off for about a month and I updated it as soon as I turned it on and after updating it I went onto Facebook but when the page loads all I see is text. no images. please help it has been like this for three days now, I also try to open youtube and the same thing, I tried google and it loads fine? idk what is going on.

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.

    Flash files not displaying in Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Most recent Shockwave installed, private browsing active in Firefox?  Works perfectly in Chrome and Internet Explorer.  HELP!!!!

    I suppose it would have helped if you knew what it was supposed to look like!   I'm using Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.169  and the version of Firefox I'm on is 20.0
    When you see it in Firefox  - do the thumbnail populate the grid?  See attached populated and un-populated.
    Populated grid is with Chrome.
    Thanks!

  • I get the "Fast Browser Plugin not loaded" message every time i run  safari and I can't find an MTWB folder anywhere on my hard drive?

    I get the "Fast Browser Plugin not loaded" message every time I run  Safari and I can't find an MTWB folder anywhere on my hard drive?  This doesn't seem to be causing a problem, but is a puzzle?

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a few minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
    4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
    11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • REALLY stop Shockwave Flash plugin INSTANTLY; Mission:Impossible

    I was VERY happy using Firefox 20 and killing the Shockwave Flash plugin using the provided button in the Add-Ons dialog to get rid of the cursor flickering (that happens after viewing certain sites) and drives me mad. I simply stopped and started it immediately, problem solved.
    NOW: Firefox 25 decided that they I cannot stop the *** plugin anymore, instead there's a useless "Never load, ask on load, ask everytime time" select with USELESS OPTIONS: NONE of these actually STOP THE PLUGIN: THE CURSOR REMAINS FLICKERING IN ALL SITES UNTIL I CLOSE FIREFOX. This drives me MAD, I CANNOT be restarting firefox everytime the damn plugin stars the cursor flickering (appearing and disappearing quickly, constantly, on the ENTIRE browser). I'm moving back to Firefox 20 if the STOP PLUGIN button is not added REALLY SOON.
    STAFF: YOU *MUST* RESTORE THE STOP PLUGIN BUTTONS *URGENTLY*. Leave all the useless crap of options there, but ADD THE STOP BUTTON. Shockwave Flash has this mouse flicker issue since I can remember, even in the good old Firefox 3.6.
    Flash was not fixed and it will never be fixed, no matter how many ridiculous updates are released by Adobe: The Flash plugin was, is and will be a headache for the rest of our life times. Stopping the plugin is the ONLY solution, and someone had the GREAT idea to remove this feature. Congratulations for screwing up something that worked perfectly!!

    Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
    Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
    To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

  • Adobe flash will not load - gives only a black screen

    For all the (3) users on this computer.   For most browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) The browser window goes 100% BLACK when a flash program link is opened and most of the time the cursor / Pointer freezes (occasionally disappears and all keyboard actions are blocked.  Have to force quit or kill the box with the power key (which always bothers me.)  No Adobe links work directly via the link in mail or in browser.  Symptom in Mail is either the original window goes BLACK or a separate window opens in Black.
    Current OS X 10.9.3 (13D65), Memory 4GB on 2.4 GHz Intel core i7 in MacBook Pro  15" Late 2011.
    Relevant?? Items:
    1.     The Adobe company checking device says Flash is not loaded.  I have had flash 9, 10, 11, 12, & 13 working before the latest of   OS X upgrades were made.
    2.     An aside, I recently (4 months ago) used a MacKeeper app.  Today (not used except for information gathering) the "System Scan says my ProtectMac anti-virus is active and no security problems noted.  Also noted was "Serious" issue relating to one of 128 issues (474.3 MB of 'junk' files-36.9 MB in 'Logs", 437.4 MB in Caches.)  "Performance" listed as 'Fast.'  No action is taken and System Scan app closed.
    3.     I seem to have lost my copy of Flash 13 in the Applications folder and the install file tries to load  "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_14_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg"
    This makes sense as to item 1. above. 
    4.      Another user loaded adobe flash 11 from a download file called, "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_11au_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg."  I do not understand the meaning of  the part of the file name that reads "_11au_" as it seem to differ from other downloads for "_11eu_".  Additionally the copy retained is filed in history and had only the user permissions of one user.  Also that copy _11au_ has no mention of Browser Type in the name description of the .dmg file; but the "_11eu_" does mention Safari browser.   Since it was from July 8, 2013 I assume it doesn't matter and it should have been superseded by Flash 12 OSX.  Mentioned here only for interest.  Also, It may have been saved on this computer in case of rebuild for another user on the home network running 13" MacBook Pro 10.6 Leopard.
    5.  Attempts to reload Flash 13 from 'AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_13au_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg' as the "Adobe Flash Player Installer" connects to the latest version not yet installed and keeps downloading the Flash 14, which fails and locks up the browser.
    6.     The download from get,Adobe.com starts out O.K.  After the installer file.dmg completes well, Step 2. is to open it, that, too, works well with an open window of a mounted device on the desktop.  The next step is to double-click the icon.  That only works so far.  A window opens and it has a progress thermometer but it never downloads any product and the link is declared "unavailable" immediately.  Refuses to load and will not always give the pointer back or let the browser continue.
    7.     While creating this 'Summary' something changed.  Using Spotlight I found a different version of Flash Installer on my Mac.  I clicked it to go to the Black screen after installer download competes and got a totally different response.  I was set to take snapshots of the windows as they progressed.  The ".dmg" Icon on the desktop changed from default plain white disk to the red "Flash Player" I had not seen for last 40 days. 
    Pic 1.     Pic 2.   
    Pic 1. is the desktop device icon.
    Pic 2. is the Installer.
    Pic 3. is the Acceptance popup.  ~~Note: This popup shows a backwards rev dated March 4, 2012!  today is 10 July, 2014.
    Flash Player 11.6 is installing after acceptance of License.
    Everything went normally and loaded but I cannot test it as all browsers were closed. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.
