Shockwave keeps crashing

I have had this problem for over 2 years. it doesn't happen all the time, but its really annoying!
I have tried suggested fixes but nothing works! I have the latest Firefox. it doesn't seem to matter as I have had this problem with alot of the previous versions too.
1. There is no Flash Player to click on to try to disable the hardware acceleration.
2. Hardware acceleration is not ticked in Firefox options.

  • Adobe shockwave keeps crashing

    I downloaded the new Flash player and i keep getting a message saying the add on shockwave is not responding and then it would close all my explorer windows.  I recently switched to Google Chrome for a browser and it still crashes but doesn't close my browser.  But what is the difference between Flash Player and Shockwave player?  It keeps crashing all the time and i can't find it in my programs.  Are they one and the same or can i get rid of it, its really p****ing me off .   Any help would be much appreciated.  Lorikabcbar

    Flash Player is a plugin/ActiveX control that plays back SWF files created with Flash, Flex or any number of other products that create SWF.
    Shockwave Player plays back content created with Adobe Director.
    What specific pages/sites are crashing?  That should help determine which player it is.

  • Adobe flash player and shockwave keeps crashing

    why cant you not fix this issue with all games on facebook and zynga games as it keeps crashing and freezing and we have to send a report every 5 minutes to you guys this is getting nothing but a pain in our butts either you fix the problems or be reported to the better bussiness office you need to fix this asap every time we play games it stops and says send report to adobe which we do all the time this has been going on for about 9 months now and it nothing but a pain in my arse you guys are making me sick you update it all the time, but you never have a fix you need to have a fix for windows 7 and windows 8. i bet all you guys that do updates for the flash player i bet any money you guys are just drinking coffee and eating donuts and on your phones you guys are nothing but a f----------- joke

    I have this issue/problem me tooo.
    And i have the latest adobe flash player version and the latest mozilla firefox 26.0.
    BUT STILL CRASHING WHY DON'T FIND ANY SOLUTION TO MAKE IT MORE STABLE THIS FROM A VERY OLD VERSIONS OF FIREFOX?
    WHY CHROME AND OTHER BROWSERS DOESN'T CRASH WITH ADOBE?
    MAYBE BECAUSE IT USE AN INTERNAL PLUGIN FOR FLASH AND NOT THIS THE ADOBE WAS RELEASED.
    PLEASE MAKE THE ADOBE FLASH PLAYER STABLE.

  • Shockwave keeps crashing in Google Chrome

    This has happened on and off for me for the past two years. But it's probably happened a few hundred times, sometimes more than a dozen times in a day. It occurs at random times. Sometimes I can view a page, read an article but I don't close the tab...an hour later, I'll get a notice that Shockwave has crashed even though there was no problem before.
    I've updated Shockwave, no change. I'm told that Google Chrome automatically updates Google Chrome but obviously there is a glitch there.
    I think it's an issue with Google Chrome but their Help pages say to come HERE for help. Unfortunately, I've found nothing useful here except for people reporting the same problem and no answers.
    Details: I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1; 64-bit operating system; Google Chrome Version 24.0.1312.57; Flash Player Version 11.6.602.167.

  • I've done all the fixes,but shockwave keeps crashing

    I've done every single "fix" but none of them prevent shockwave from crashing.I's been a year now and still no progress. the answers on here are redundant and just plain wrong.

  • Shockwave keeps crashing on Chrome.

    Hello everyone,
    I guess everyone knows that Shockwave and Chrome doesn't fit together very well right know, because of the constant crashes.
    It's been about 2-3 months this has been happening to me. At least once an hour Shockwave crashes.
    Now i want to ask, are the developers doing anything about this? Is there way to fix this? It's really getting on my nerv, especially when it seems that i'm constantly downloading new versions of the player and it still keeps happening.
    So please, either do something about it or at least keep people updated with the problem. Theres plenty of discussions going on without a single answer.
    Thank you,
    Grettin / Jh.

    This is a user forum; you are not addressing the developers here.
    But if you post some details about your system and crash details, perhaps someone can help you.

    The last time Shockwave Player was updated was June 14 (v11.6.0.626); the previous update was February 9 (v11.5.9.62).

  • Flash (Shockwave) keeps crashing in both Chrome and IE

    Hi,
    I am having problems with Shockwave "crashing". Mainly what happens is when I try to view a video or play a game on Facebook, Google Chrome says that the plugin has stopped responding and then my browser freezes up. 
    I have tried running things in IE as well and the same thing happens.
    I have gone to the link provided in other threads to unenable hardware acceleration, but that doesn't seem to have helped.
    I am running Windows 7.
    Thanks!

    Okay.  Please go to chrome://crashes and file bugs for the first couple.  This will transmit all of the relevant technical details to Google.
    If you can give me the resulting bug numbers, I'd be happy to follow up with Google on them.

  • Adobe Flash and Shockwave keep crashing in Firefox and Chrome.

    The problem just started last night.
    Firefox 6.0.2
    Chrome13.0.782.220
    I have uninstalled, then rebooted and reinstalled Flash Player, Shockwave, and plug-in for Firefox.
    After installing it worked and then stopped working again about an hour ago.
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit OS
    Service Pack 1
    NVidia GT220 driver is up to date.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Using FireFox 10.0.2 and Flash Player 11.1.102.62 (or any other combination that I have tried so far) on Windows 7 64 bit, after a few seconds of playing a YouTube video the video freezes up and after a few more seconds I get the frowny face with the message that Flash Player has crashed.  Several people have recommended disabling hardware acceleration but that didn't help.  The only way I can get it to play YouTube videos is to go to FireFox Plugins and disable the Shockwave plugin.  Now I can play YouTube videos, but some videos that come to me from other platforms pop up with the message:  "This plugin is disabled."
    I used to be able to play all videos with no problem up to about two weeks ago. I don't want to have to restore to a previous time if I don't have to.
    Also, when I use Internet Explorer I have no problems playing either YouTube of those from other sources.
    I have seen a lot of questions on this problem but no good answers that have worked for me.
    BTW, on each crash I clicked on reload and submit report, but don't know if it goes anywhere.

  • Shockwave keeps crashing regardless of fixes

    Shockwave continues to crash, regardless of whatever fixes are applied. FWIW, I'm having the same luck when using WaterFox. I have tried every fix posted in the last 2 weeks (short of a total reinstall of FF) with no luck. Very frustrating to say the least. Thanks!

    One of the above responses yesterday references a Bugzilla link; I'm just not sure what to do with it. Does that mean it's a known bug I'll have to live with?

  • Adobe Shockwave plugin keeps crashing. Please read

    So I'm using Windows 8.1. and Shockwave Flash 13.0.0.206 keeps crashing.
    It's up to date, infact it's latest update was today. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox, didn't work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Shockwave AND Flash, didn't work. I tried resetting friefox, didn't work.
    Messages like "Shockwave flash plugin has crashed, continue or stop plugin" I always click continue but nothing happens.
    This has been plauging me for a month now. What do I do?

    Hi,
    Please try the following.
    Try to disable Protected Mode in Flash 11.3 and above by adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to the Flash "mms.cfg" file located in one of these locations: [46]
    (Windows 32bit) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    (Windows 64bit) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    For example, on a Windows 7 64-bit system, open the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, copy the file "mms.cfg" to the desktop, open it in Notepad, add a new line ProtectedMode=0 and then close Notepad, saving your changes. Next, go back to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, rename the original file to "mms.cfgBAK" (to save it as a backup) and then drag and drop in the modified "mms.cfg" file from the desktop. [47] [48] [49]
    Note: To re-enable Flash Protected Mode, either restore a backup of the original mms.cfg file, if you saved one, or else re-edit the mms.cfg file to remove the ProtectedMode=0 line you added. Updating Flash Player or installing a newer version does not automatically re-enable Protected Mode
    Try disabling Hardware Acceleration. <br>
    #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.

  • 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?
    Lisa

    after 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.
