  • My Adobe Flash Player Plugin keeps crashing. Annoying

    I play games from the developer Zynga and I keep getting Adobe Flash Player plugin has crashed. I downloaded Mozilla Firefox thinking that I would have more luck with it than IE. Not so far. What can I do to correct this?

    Reloading the page will often get the video, game or animation to play again.
    If Flash continues to crash, updating to the latest version of Flash should fix the issue.
    As this has been happening to you for a long time, try this too...
    Go to this Flash help page on adobe.com.

    Right-click on the box that lists your Flash player version and then click 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.
    Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
    Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    Restart Firefox.

  • Adobe Flash player plugin keeps crashing/Updating not working.

    Almost everyday the plug-in keeps crashing which is very annoying. Updating it did not work as there are missing plug-ins and when installing them, you have to install by manual but when downloaded theres no way to open and run the missing plug-in

  • Problem with the adobe flash player, its falling down, what to do?

    Its always falling down almost immediately when i hear music. I have tried to update Adobe Flash player and so on. But it still not working, its strange but i have been thinking if Mozilla doesn't ''allow'' the adobe flash player. Do I need maybe change Firefox to something else??

    Is it only the sound or do you have other problems with Flash as well?
    See [[No sound in Firefox]] and [[Video or audio does not play]]
    You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.
    You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.
    You will only see the Firefox program in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.
    You can also try to uninstall and reinstall Flash.

  • 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.

  • What are the distinctions between Adobe Flash Player & Shockwave Player & Shockwave Flash?

    I find references to what seem to be three distinct things:
    Adobe Flash Player
    Shockwave Player
    Shockwave Flash
    Treatment of these things is interwoven and confusing:. 
    As an example, the Adobe Shockwave Player page at URL:  http://www.adobe.com/products/shockwaveplayer/  provides a link to a page to test whether Shockwave Player is installed.   That test, however, is the test to see whether Adobe Flash Player ins installed. 
    On my Mac running OS X 10.6.4 Firefox 8.0.1 has a Plug-In named Shockwave Flash 11.0.1.152. 
    Are these things indeed distinct?  Is it likely that both (or all three) are needed on the same computer?  The Adobe web site should clearly define the relationships at a high level of visibility.

    Basically, the Flash player is just that: you can watch videos, but you can't interact with them.
    To give it its full name, Shockwave For Director is primarily used for things like games, or demos where the user can interact with the animation.
    The current version of the Shockwave (For Director) player is 11.6.3.633 while the current Flash player is 11.1.102.55

  • Why does the Adobe Flash Player pop up keep on appearing when using the browser. It never used to before the upgrade to the latest version.

    Since updating to the latest version of Firefox the Adobe Flash player pop up continually pops up whether the page needs flash player or not. It even shows for a text page.
    It is very annoying

    You can set the default in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" and change that for the Shockwave Flash plugin to "Always Activate".
    You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
    *Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
    *Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
    *Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab

  • TS1394 What can I do to install the Adobe Flash player? It seems to download, but then no save as or install options appears.

    That is my question. The Adobe Flash Player does not download and give me a screen to finish the download. Any online articles, forms, etc that I want to view-my screen goes black. Is it the Plug-ins are missing? What are plug-ins. Be nice.

    Once it's installed, be aware that it's not a standalone player - it's a browser plugin which installs in Macintosh HD > Library > Internet Plug-ins and is accessible to all browsers.
    And you are downloading directly from Adobe aren't you? Never trust pop-ups on websites that say you need a plug-in.

    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.

    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/
