Tens of Thousands having massive problems with Flash Playing Cityville

Literally tens, possibly hundreds, of thousands of people are having problems with FlashPlayer crashing constantly while trying to play a Zynga game, Cityville, which plays on Facebook while running the game on Google Chrome. None of us had this problem before sometime last week and now playing the game is all but impossible. Sometimes the game works for a minute or two with great lag and sometimes it shuts down right after you get the game up and running. The only message we get is that Flashplayer has crashed. We can restore the page and go again for a minute but the problem occurs time after time. Does anyone know a solution or does anyone know how to get Adobe, Zynga and Facebbok to get together and solve the problem? Most of us are just computer users and aren't computer savvy so don't know what to do.
I followed instructions on my PC and got a little more info. It seems that Windows 'sees' the program on it's initiation as a possible threat to the system and/or running too slowly. Her is some information I found but I don't know and am afraid to do anything else with it.
Heck, I can't even upload that; I'm told the file type isn't allowed. LOL Anyhow it told me that I should go into my MOTO Connect Service and manually select (with instructions) the .EXE file for the app to bee an exception to the genral DEP. I didn't do that because I was a bit timid and also never found an .exe file that looked correct. Perhaps I should be happy about that....
Anyhow, there are over 6 million people who regularly play Cityville and all of them no doubt have adjusted their opinions about Adobe because of this. Shame is that it is not likely even Adobe's problem.

If you are having issues with the Flash Player, there is a forum dedicated to it that would be a more suitable place for discussions about it...

Massive problems with Flash player

I think it started about last week, after an update: every time I watch a video (whether it be on YouTube or elsewhere) that is longer than 5 minutes (and often shorter), the video starts stuttering after a few minutes. First the framerate slows down to about 1 frame every 3-4 seconds before grinding to a complete halt, almost freezing all of my computer in the process until I close the tab, although sometimes a full reboot is needed. The audio largely remains unaffected.
When I upgraded the Flash player, the problems persisted. Turning off hardware acceleration seems to have helped but I am not sure--I have had some audio problems since disabling this. It's odd and really very frustrating as I have a very decent video card. What is going on here? How can this be fixed? What do I miss out on by disabling hardware acceleration?
I am currently using Firefox 5 with Flash player 10,3,181,34 on Windows Vista 32bit.

Hi, if you have Flash Player installed correctly and it's working but having issues with video playback, take a look at what some of the reasons can be.

Having a problem with Flash Builder and Extension Builder - images not apearing on Mac system

Have a panel created in Flash Builder 4.5 with Extension Builder 2.1. Everything is fine when installed on a PC but when installed on a Mac the images in the panel do not show.
Mac and PC both using Adobe Photoshop CC . Both installed from same .ZXP file using Adobe Extension Manager CC.
Any ideas?

No I used relative path - the path is images/image name
example images/cRight.png
tried downloading Extension Builder 2.1 and compiling on Mac but still have same results - images show up fine in design window , but not when running panel in Photoshop
Created a new project: testImage
added an image component to form
answered yes to add asset to project
ran project
image did not show up in Photoshop
went back to project
checked item Embed under Common image properties
ran project and image shows up
Looks like it works if I add @Embed("assets/image name") on Mac to display images
tried in my real project:
Looks like it works if I add @Embed("images/image name") on Mac to display images
When I change this on PC to @Embed("images/image name") images do not show Up
Don't know if I need to create two versions one for Mac one for PC
Don't know how this would affect product on Adobe Exchange

I am having a problem with Flash Player constant crashing.

I have updated to new version plus uninstalled and reinstalled numerous times. Dell computers have also attempted and claimed to have been successful three different times. It still continues to crash. The new message I am getting is continue plug-in or stop plug-in. I typically stop plug-in but then it can up to five minutes or more to reload the page. I also receive reload the page message as well. This happens using Firefox and Chrome both as the browser. Forgot to mention this happens when playing games, i.e. Farmville 2 and Coasterville, on Facebook. I don't seem to have a problem on any of the other games available. This has been happening for months and I have researched everything I can plus doing everything I can but it does NOT resolve the problem. I have also disabled my virus protection while reinstalling this software. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!! Failed to mention that the Dell technician even uninstalled Firefox and Chrome to eliminate the issue. Of course per this message that did not resolve the problem either. Thank you , Pam

I was not even awary that you could copy text from Flash content; can you point me to a site that allows that?
I also don't know if Flash Player uses its own encoding, or that of the hosted web page.

Having installation problems with flash player! Please help!

So i download and begin installation for adobe flash player and it starts installing but stops at 50% to tell me to close Safari browsers. The problem is that there are no safari browsers open because I had already closed out of them but it keeps telling me to close them.
I have no idea how to fix this, please help!!

Hello,
If you're just closing the browser window, you're not actually quitting the application. You need to quit the application for Flash Player to install. There are a few different ways to Quit Safari:
Quit Safari app from the Dock icon:
Mouse over the Safari icon in the Dock
Press CTRL and left-mouse click at the same time
A menu will display. Click Quit to terminate the application.
Use Activity Monitor to terminate Safari:
Launch Activity Monitor from Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor
Ensure 'All Processes' are being listed (menu in the upper right)
Find and select Safari
Click the Quit Process button (upper left)

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 playback

I'm having a problem with Flash video playback, hoping
someone here can help.
I have several movies which I have converted to .flv using
the Flash authoring tool. I have then created an .swf for each
movie, embedding the .flv along with the playback component,
playback controls, etc.
I can open these .swfs using Flash Player and everything
displays and plays as expected. However, when I embed the .swf into
a web page and open it using a browser, the playback controls don't
show up, and the movie will only play if it has been encoded to
autoplay. I am on an Intel Mac, using the latest Flash Player
plug-in, and am having this problem in both Firefox 2.0.0.11 and in
Safari 2.0.4.
I'm guessing that the problem lies in how I have encoded the
.swfs into the web page? Hoping someone has a solution, or at least
a good suggestion!
thanks,
- sounddevisor

Yes, that is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Just to clarify for anyone else who stumbles across this -
the extra .swf files (which contain the skin for the player) need
to be in the same directory as the .html doc which is displaying
the video .swf. Hope that helps someone else!

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

Hello,
The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.

Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862
Might be later ones around also... saw 11.3 I think.
(If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.
You should also consider the Shockwave Player, which displays Web content that has been created by Adobe Director, much used for multimedia: For PPC Macs: http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/

I am having major problems with my trackpad on my macbook pro. I can no longer press down on the bottom left and right corners for it to click and follow my command. Please can anyone help?

I am having major problems with my track pad on my macbook pro. Even though my settings haven't changed...my trackpad is no longer responding as it did before. The left hand corner no longer clicks when I press it and my personal commands which I set up in preferences no longer seem to be workin. Please help!

Some websites have an internal mute or volume setting. If that's not the issue, see below.
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
          Delete All Site Data and Settings
then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.

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....

Im having a problem with my mic on my ipod 5th gen it works but it douse not pick up any sound unless i talk right next to the mic. how can i fix this

im having a problem with my mic on my ipod 5th gen it works but it douse not pick up any sound unless I talk right next to the mic but it sounds low . how can i fix this

- Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the top edge near the center.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
