The Adobe Flash plugin not working

I downloaded and installed the Adobe Flash plugin last version (11), but Firefox doesn't recognizing it and asking me again to install it. OS - MAC, version 10.6.8

You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.

For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

Clicking on "click here to activate the adobe flash plugin" does not work

I am trying to get away from the WaterFox 'click to use' interface which is a pain in the neck as hardly anything works today. Now I have a similar problem in FireFox.

hello andy, if you don't want to use click to play then disable it again - enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''plugins.click_to_play'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false'''.

When I try to print coupons, I get a message that the coupon printer plugin has crashed. I've tried following the instructions for when the Adobe Flash plugin crashes, but reloading the page does not work. Just sits there for 5 minutes doing nothing.

Happens when going to print.coupons.com. I click the "learn more" button on the message that the plugin has crashed, and I get sent to the Adobe Flash plugin crash info page on Firefox. They say just to reload the page. There is a button for this. I click it and the page tries to reload for 5 minutes before freezing.

The new version of Adobe Flash Player not working.

The new version of Adobe Flash Player not working.
She plants the clock to all videos , advertisements and links. I tried to uninstall and reinstall everything but the result remains unchanged. I am using Windows 8.1 and Mozilla Firefox. I need your help please .
I'm sorry if i did errors of spelling because I used google translation. I 'm french .

I finally figured it out. Flash Player had not installed. I had to de-activate Active-X thru the safety tab on the menu bar and then download the Adobe Flash Player and now it's working. I re-activated Active X after I finished installing Flash,. Hope fully everything will keep working fine!

All of a sudden, Adobe Flash is not working. Have installed the latest version to no avail. This happened at the same time on four (4) computers! Any suggestions?

All of a sudden, Adobe Flash is not working. Have installed the latest version to no avail. This happened at the same time on four (4) computers! Any suggestions?

Well, I kinda figured that was true, so I disabled it. Firefox does not lock up now. I suspect it might be a Google Finance page graph that is causing the problem, rather that Flash. Thanks for all your help. J

Adobe Flash does not work, even when enabled.

The Adobe Flash plugin doesn't seem to work. Well, it's there but doesn't show any Flash content. In other words, it just shows the background of the site (or blank). Sites are able to detect Flash if it's disabled. No other addons or plugins are interfering with it. I can't update Firefox or Flash.

Hi,
In summary
* check IE works with Flash content at present
* download and install Firefox 14+
* uninstall Flash 11.3 and install Flash 10.3
* post back with how you get on
* note these are temporary workarounds until developers fix the problems.<br> Whilst these problems exist upgrading FlashPlayer as advised by Adobe Flash, or by Firefox's pluginchecker may not be a good idea.
First of all I note you seem to be using the old Firefox 5. That is no longer supported and is not secure. I would suggest you update to Firefox 14 either by using the menu option
* Help -> About Firefox ->Upgrade
* or by visiting http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Secondly note there may be some problems with use of the current Flash 11.3 versions. Some Firefox users are needing to uninstall tht and downgrade to Flash Player 10.3 (older but secure) or Flash Player 11.2
This problem has had developer attention for a few weeks but there is no sign of a proper solution yet. Note at least some of the problems relate to a new security feature ''protected mode'' used by FlashPlayer on windows systems above Windows XP.
As a Windows user you may wir=sh to check if FlashPlayer works ok on Internet Explorer ? It should do. (But you may have problems if you follow the official advice to use an Adobe uninstaller, you may need to review the IE installation of FlashPlayer afterwards.)
Note the fact that your problem relates to FlashPlayer 11.3 is at the moment no more than a guess, based on the number of known issues at present (and the sytsem information aside that indicates you are using flash 11.3).
The current standard official advice is :
Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
[[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
[[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
[[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]

The adobe flash plugin has failed and none of the solutions have helped

the adobe flash plugin has failed and none of the solutions listed in the help section works! I've tried all the solutions listed but none seems to work.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== it started a week ago

Why is Flash now so unstable in Firefox? The Flash has crashed indicator is now a familiar visitor (it generally goes when I refresh the page so it's not hugely fatal!) But . . . I am having to go back to IE to check the reliability with my own sites - which are heavily dependent on flash for animation and video. What can be done? My Firefox and Flash installations are kept up to date. Really disappointing.

Flash plugin not working in main user acct

I installed the adobe flash plugin several times - nothing was working. Then, I took the advice of a previous poster and created another user account. The plugin is working perfectly under the other user account, but not under the main admin. I've also tried deleting the preferences, moving the preferences, resetting safari...etc. etc. I'm at my wits end!!

Hi
Please check that all web-content boxes in your main user account are checked in Safari Preferences>Security panel. If they are:
Uninstall Flash via the Adobe method. You can do this with this Adobe Uninstaller.
Next, download a current copy from here - in your case it would be the PPC version.
When done, Safari automatically opens to the Adobe Flash page confirming the plug-in was correctly installed.
Quit Safari and "repair permissions" using Disk Utility in the Utilities folder. If Safari crashes, still "repair permissions" before going on to the next suggestion.

The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed! Help please.

I can't load any flash content within Firefox. I instantly get the following error: "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed. Reload the page to try again.".
So far I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash, restarted my computer, and disabled hardware acceleration all to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

Ok, so scratch my last response. Disabling hardware acceleration through Firefox (orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available" ) did not work however step 3B did. Following your link, right clicking on the Flash logo and disabling hardware acceleration there has fixed my issue.
Thanks!

How to intercept the Adobe Flash plugin block by firefox checking for vulnerabilities?

The trouble is the grey block, that asking to update Adobe Flash because the version is vulnerability. If the block of Flash object is smaller, then 100px height - there is an empty space, but not gray block with talking about version. I need to intercept the moment using JavaScript, when Firefox checking the version of plugin to make changes in my HTML code to make a GIF, but not flash.
How to intercept the Adobe Flash plugin block by Firefox checking for vulnerabilities from JavaScript code?

hello, i don't think that this would be possible (but i'm not sure). what you could do is try to sniff the version of flash that is installed & the firefox useragent and just assume that old versions of the plugin will be blocked in this combination.
if you need more help about that, i'd recommend posting in a forum that is more specialized & knowledgeable in web development like http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=25, since we here on the firefox support forums are primarily focused on support for end-users...

Why does the adobe flash plugin crash whenever I try to view a video file?

When attempting to view video files, except youtube, the Adobe Flash plugin always (this is consistent) crashes. I have sent numerous crash reports. I have since the problem first occurred updated firefox at least twice and Adobe Flash has been updated the same number of times. I have not always had this problem, but now it is recurring. Note: the plugin does not crash if I use IE.

hi WDWPhishFan,
Have you looked at [[The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed]] and [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]]?
The first article has a lot of good troubleshooting steps that might help. The second article actual lists a couple of plugins that can be used for opening PDF files. I'd give both of them a try just in case.
Hopefully this helps!

I'm running on Ubuntu 9.10 with Firefox 3.6.10.
thanks to the first post, i didn't downgrade Firefox to 3.5 but i did download 3.5.
Here is what i did:
I downloaded 3.5.13 : http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
The link to 3.5.13 is on the right under Other Versions.
Once you click on FF 3.5.13, it'll take you to all different languages of 3.5.13.
I got the English version. The name of the file is : firefox-3.5.13.tar.bz2
Once downloaded, i opened the location of the file( Downloads folder) and opened the package by double clicking on it. YOur 9.10 should be able to recognize bz2 format and you will see a folder called Firefox in the archive.
Simply, extract the folder and place it on your desktop.
IF you want to run FF3.5.13, close all firefox browsers that are already opened.
Once this is done, Open the folder "Firefox" that you just extracted and double click on the file firefox. It should ask you to run, display, run in terminal... simply press run.
This is how i got it to work. simple steps. to confirm it is working, check the version of firefox and try paltalk express
