Unable to launch yahoo chess (Yahoo! Chess requires Flash Player 7 or later and JavaScript enabled in your browser.)

When trying to launch/play chess from the yahoo games website, I get the following message: "Yahoo! Chess requires Flash Player 7 or later and JavaScript enabled in your browser''. I have verified that I do have Flash Player 10 installed and that JavaScript is enabled. I'm able to launch/play chess from Yahoo Games when I use IE as my browser.

You either do not have Flash installed for Firefox or it is disabled.
In Add-ons > Plugins, look for "Shockwave Flash ''(version)''".
*If it is there and you see an "Enable" button, click the "Enable" button; that means it was disabled.
*If it is not there, you do not have it installed; see the following.
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.

Videos that require flash player constantly restart and freeze

Running Windows 7 and have tried multiple browers and versions of Adobe Flash Player (all set back to the latest versions as of right now), and have updated my video drivers, but no matter what if I go on any website like YouTube that uses Flash Player, I can watch a video for a couple minutes and then Flash Player will freeze and reboot the video to the beginning. Closing out the window doesn't help, refreshing the page doesn't help either, it will still just let me watch for a few minutes and then freeze and restart. Very frusterated here, any idea what the problem is??

-Using 64 bit version and I've tried literally every available copy of Flash Player located in the archives. It only started doing this I'd say about a month ago maybe.
-Not sure which parts of the dxdiag report you need but this is the overall system info:
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.130318-1533)

-The only difference I saw was that non-HTML loaded significantly faster. It usually takes a minimum of 3 min though before I might have restart trouble.

After Flash 11 install: Adobe Connect requires Flash Player 10.1 or above.

Adobe Connect will not run on my XP Pro workstation. Flash (11.1.102.63) has been installed several times, with and without AVG. We get the Flash Successful Installation Screen, try to launch Connect again, and always bounce right into the same message:
Adobe Connect requires Flash Player 10.1 or above.
Its like the system is not recognizing the Flash install. How do we get beyond this? Thanks for your help!

John
I have tried to invite my sister-in-law to join me in a Connect Now meeting. Every time she tries to respond to the dialogue box that comes up when she clicks on the hyperlink I send her, she gets a message saying that she has to install Flash Player. We have tried doing this on a number of occasions, but always end up with the same response.
I've noted from your advice above that Internet Explorer and Google Chrome require different versions of Flash Player. She tells me she has both browsers on her machine. From the description she has given me, she appears to have downloaded both versions of Flash Player.
Despite the fact that it appears she has now install both versions of Flash Player, however, she is still getting the same request to install Flash Player when she responds to my hyperlink request.
Please help.
As my sister-in-law is not technically minded, a simplified set of instructions would be appreciated.
With my thanks and kind regards,
Nicholas.

Why are websites requiring Flash player?

With HTML5, I expected fewer websites to be requiring Flash player. Now more YouTube videos are requiring Flash, as well as post-mainstream media websites like MSNBC. Are they TRYING to turn the earth backwards, or what?

I'm getting ready to launch an HTML-based 'application' service, and I also think HTML5 fluency is probably an important tool in any developer's future. I'm having a little trouble getting my developer skills to work in conjunction with a website, and to do so securely. But I understand that browsers will soon (some sort of time unit) have a secure space for serving applications. ('Secure' in the sense that javascript is a 'secure' space for a web-server to receive user-defined variables).

Ever since I upgraded to firefox 5, a site that required flash player doesn't work - it worked with the older version

A site that worked on your old version doesn't work anymore. When I go to the page it says to download a plugin, but then it comes up with "no suitable plugins were found." I believe the site requires flash player. I have reinstalled it and it works with other programs that require it.

I wasn't able to get to any of those sites without having serious hanging issues. I just uninstalled Flash, rebooted, then reinstalled it. Everything seems to be working fine now.

I had saved one copy as an .asp but then resaved it to .xhtml
I'm assuming this is a static web site. Rename (F2) all your pages with .html or .htm extension.
.xhtml is not a valid extension.

How do I view websites that require flash player ?

I am trying to view online catalogues with my iPad and they will not open as they require flash player. Is there a solution?

Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

Youtube video requiring Flash Player

Some of Youtube video requires Flash Player. I installed it successfully, but I still encounter the same error message. It appears that I have not installed ActiveX control. How do I install it. BTW, is the ActiveX control the issue here or somethingelse is going on?

Hi,
Please check the below mentioned knowledge base article and follow the instructions
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html

Firefox freezes when going to a site or page that requires Flash Player, such as YouTube. I have the most updated version of Flash. Is there a solution to this problem?

I'm having trouble visiting sites or pages that require Flash Player, Firefox will just freeze when they're partially loaded and it will stay frozen until I close Firefox. This will happen with any page that uses flash player. I can disable it, but then I can't access the content which requires Flash Player, have to use a different browser and I'd rather just use Firefox.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Can't watch video and play games that require flash player

I'm using windows7 family premium version
internet explorer 10 last version 10.0.5
exploitation system 64 bytes
flash player verson 11..700.202 the latest one
So as i say can't watch video and play games that require flash player, they keep asking me to install flashplayer... i did everything i read in the forums, unistall it, clean the memory, reinstall it, disabe active x etc... but still have the problem.
More specific about my problem is that: let's say that i'm trying to look at you tutorial video under thi forum Re: How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player? i'm just seeing a black screen. So I'm able to guess where is the play button so when i push on that place, i can hear the sound of that video. Second step guessing where is the enlarge button, and when the screen is enlarged, magic i can see and hear the video.... So you figure that it's impossible to use my computer like that and guess right all the time, so....
Second fact, it seems that bug happened after an update (windows or explorer) and i even talk with a microsott tech who was not able to resolve it... But if i'm undoning the update and go back to a prior image, i have no problems with flash player anymore... it' been moths that i'm delaying my updates cause i cannot find any solutions.... So Please please please, help me .... don't know what's the problem is and i'm not a pro, don't know what to do. (Excuse my english it's my second language)
Thank you

The first thing I'd try is updating your video driver.
Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
If you still have problems and since you're using Windows 7 x64, please check to see if you have the following Windows update installed:
KB2670838 – Platform Update for Windows 7 x64
If so, please uninstall it and try Flash Player out again.

i have a HP laptop, when i try to do certain things that require flash player it tells me i need to install the latest version so when i try it says its already installed. i have tried all the trouble shooting suggestions and it stll isnt working. I even checked the activex filtering and that doesn't seem to be the problem.

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Updated Mac OS X 10.6.7, now YouTube requires Flash Player Update?

Hi guys,
can anyone help me please? I just bought a Mac Book Pro (mid 2010) 2 days ago. Everything was working great, but now after updating my software, YouTube Videos won't play as they require Flash Player 10. Now, I have followed the link on youtube and downloaded the player, but first of all it doesn't work, plus it makes an ugly desktop icon of flash player on my desktop which i don't want to have. So I believe that flash is included in Mac OS X software right? So if it doesn't work, it's a software issue. Anyone any idea how to get this issue solved??
Thanks a lot.

I solved it . Sorry for being frustrated, it was just because the mac is new and I didnt expect to have such problem with it. Also I didnt mean to be unpolite with saying "help pleasee" i was just very desperate to solve this issue.
The mistake i did was that when the installation finishes you need to restart the browser.... I closed the browser, but i didnt completely end it. So i did the whole process again and ended the safari fully and then restarted it. Then ejected the flash icon from the desktop, and now everything works fine again.
Thanks a lot for your help buddy, appreciate it/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___ /migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/m igration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-av ail.png/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png/___sbsstati c___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png

Miu Miu Wooden Handle Tote
I am constantly drawn to cream colored leathers. Browns and
whites can be harsh at times, so adding a bit of cream to tone it
down is the perfect option. And whites do not have to stop being
worn after Labor Day, in fact winter whites are perfectly luxe for
the season. But I typically opt for a white that is creamier. And
the soya cream leather on the Miu Miu Wooden Handle Tote offers a
feeling of winter resort. The wooden handle does give the bag a
very resort feel, but would look perfect in a more tropical area
(like South Florida). The wooden handle may not fit on your
shoulder well, and even if it did it may grind into your shoulder a
bit. Of course Miu Miu added in an optional detachable shoulder
strap. I adore this bag, adore the color of the leather, and adore
the wooden accent. Buy through （Buy through
