Unwanted pausing and freezing at the beginning - Flash player problem - Need help

Hi everybody,
I have got the following problem: the problem occurs especially on youtube.com.
Every time when I open a video, the adobe flash player buffers the video a little bit and suddenly the grey line, which means the buffering on youtube video, stops. Then video plays only until the end of the grey buffer line. Then it freeze and I have to wait until 10-20 seconds until the grey line continues moving forward and at the same time the video continues to play.
But I don't want to have that freezing problem at the beginning of each video.
The important thing to know is: when I used a very old version of the flash player (the version 9 or 10) then every video on youtube worked very well without any freezing problems at the beginning
What is the solution. Can you please help me?
Here is what I have done so far:
I updated my flash player to the latest version.
My internet speed is very fast.
When I click right on the youtube video screen in order to go to the settings: then I unchecked "active hardware acceleration, I changed the temporary storage limit to "unlimited".
My global settings looks like the following: I checked "allow websites to save information on your computer" and "ask if a website wants to use a peer assisted network".
My OS: Windows 7 (64)
Current version of firefox, chrome and IE. I have the problem in every browser.
In the attachment you can see 2 screenshots of my problem: One where you can see the grey buffer line. and the 2nd: where you can see that the video stopped loading and buffering and the video stopped playing.
Unfortunately, I don't get money from the company for advertising its product *sigh*. ;-)

Just because your internet connection is fast doesn't mean that the route from the specific server to you is also equivalently fast.  You can get some additional information by right-clicking the YouTube video and choosing Stats for nerds.  That information would be interesting.
If video plays back fine once it actually buffers successfully, then there's probably not a lot you can do.  You might take a look at a different browser.  Google Chrome will probably use HTML5 playback on YouTube, and Internet Explorer will use the ActiveX control on Flash, which is significantly different from the NPAPI Flash Player used in Firefox.

    Did you uninstall all the previous versions of Adobe Flash Player?  Did you repair permissions and restarted your computer after the installation?

  • Problems viewing videos and trailers after the lastest Flash Player update

    I have Windows 7 - 64 bit, I use Firefox 11 (latest version) and Chrome (latest version); however, since I have installed the latest Flash Player update, I cannot view any trailers or some videos.  Youtube works fine, but other sites dont (I just get a green screen).  Please can someone assist me?  I have tried the "Help" section for Flash Player and it hasn't been too helpful.
    Thanks in advance!
    Ok, I found the problem, my hardware acceleration was set to enabled, once I disabled it, I had no problems viewing any of my sights that used Flash.

  • Is this the same flash player problem?

    Hi,
    I'm new to all of this....have just brought a netbook (samsung n110), the system requirements seem to be fine for flash player but it just won't download! I'm wondering if this is the same issue others are discussing in this forum, any help would be much appreciated?
    I am using windows xp. I have uninstalled all old versions of flash player. I am trying to watch programme episodes on MTV online. When I get to the download stage on the adobe site it says close all other browser pages etc and I click download...but it just seems to reload this page and does not start the download. I have tried it uncountable times but no change. I have also attempted to change the operating system stated on the page just in case selecting XP makes a difference but when I do this and select 'vista/xp' and click continue it does not do anything or take me to step two....
    Is anyone able to advise if this is the same problem everyone is experiencing or if not, offer any solutions?
    Thank you

  • I am having trouble installing and using remote desktop client and admin on the same imac.  I need help?

    Can you give me a step by step on getting the client and the admin part of remote desktop to work?  I am new to this and I need for remote desktop to work to install the Faronics Deepfreeze enterprise console on the new imac in office.  The OSx version is 10.8.3  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Also, when I go to install the admin, it says that the remote desktop client is not updated and I cant get mac app store to show any updates.  May be doing something wrong.

    This is what I usualy do to setup ARDclient on a client computer.
    on the client computer
    go to menu bar (white bar at top of the screen)
    click on the apple menu
    chose system preferences
    click show all button
    click Users & Groups
    click the lock to unlock
    click + to create a new account
    chose new account: type "administrator"
    name the user some thing applicable like "ARDuser"
    set a secure password
    click create account
    click show all button
    click sharing
    set the computer name to some thing descritpive that identifies the computer
    check remote login
    click on remote login
    set allow access for: "only these users"
    click the +
    chose the ARDuser from the list
    click select
    check remote management
    click on remote management
    set allow access to "only these users"
    click the +
    select the ARDuser from the list
    click select
    check: observe, control, genereate reports, open & quite applications, delete and replace items, start text chat or send messages, restart & shutdown, copy items
    click ok
    click the lock to lock system preferences
    click show all
    quite system preferences
    At this point you should be able to connect to the client using Apple Remote Desktop using the ARDuser setup above. Make sure the client and the ARD computer are on the same network the same way. IE both on ethernet or both on wifi. On the same internet conenction, if your were trying to conenct to a client over the internet there is more involved. 
    on the ard computer:
    open apple remote desktop
    from the left column select discover
    make sure the list is set to bonjour
    the client computer should show up on the list, with the name set above
    select the client from the list
    click control
    you will be prompted for the user/pass to log into the computer. that's the ARDuser setup in the steps above.

    Thanks for all help
    also please if you can find the problem itd be nice to know what it is

    I will not download the .fla - maybe if you hosted the .swf I would view it.
    to change frame use: gotoAndStop(<framenumber>);
    (without the < >, just a number for the fram).
    I recommend you use movieclips for buttons and place all code on the main timeline. For movieclips, give them an identifier name (bottom left int he properties box of the movieclip) then on the main timeline use:
    movieclipName.onRelease = function(){
    gotoAndStop(10);//change 10 to the frame you wish to go to. gotoAndPlay(10) plays from the frame.

  • Flash Player Problems with Mac Power PC

    I have tried all the suggestions on this forum about how to install Flash Player for a Power PC Mac running 10.5.8. I still get the notice to install Flash Player. Is there something else that could be wrong? I ran the debugger, don't have any firewalls running etc. I finally got it to download and install but where is it going?

    Hi Chris,
    I used this link: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/895134?tstart=0
    Where you said the following,
    'Please try the following:
    1. Follow the instructions for uninstalling Flash Player on the Mac: Uninstall Flash Player | Mac
    2. Mount the flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg and try installing again
    3. If it still fails, right click on "Install Adobe Flash Player" and select "Show Package Contents". 
    4. Navigate into the /Contents/Resources/ folder and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file.
    Thanks,

    It didn't help though.
    I tried step 4 and the installer says, "You cannot install. There is nothing to install."
    So now, what am I to do??
    Thanks.

  • On 12/23/11 I update the adobe flash player and have had problems since- unexpected closing and freezing. Remove the adobe flash player and those problems resolved. How do I go back to the earlier version of adobe?

    I was prompted by Firefox to update my adobe flash player on 12/23/11, which I did. Ever since then the web site has frozen and/or crashed. I run a internet business and can't have this continue. I uninstalled the flash player and the problems have stopped. I would like to reinstall the earlier version of adobe, since that didn't seem to impact the web site.
    This is the flash player I installed on the 23rd - Flash Player 10.3 for Mac OS X 10.4-10.5 (Intel)

    I do not recommend reformatting your harddrive and reloading your software.  This is a Windows thing. On an older mac it may be difficult to find all your software again.
    Best to have greater than 2gig of free space.  Many posters to these forums state that you need much more free space: 5 gig to 10 gig or 10 percent of you hd size.

    Be careful when deleting files. A lot of people have trashed their system when deleting things. Place things in trash. Reboot & run your applications. Empty trash.
    Go after large files that you have created & know what they are.  Do not delete small files that are in a folder you do not know what the folder is for. Anything that is less than a megabyte is a small file these days.

  • In Flash the sound does not play only started from the beginning. Can anyone please help?

    In Flash, the sound only plays if the file is started from the beginning. The sound doesn't play if starting from anywhere other than the beginning.
    This is very frustrating when trying to sync the animation with the sound as it's not possible to scroll back and forward with the sound playing. The only way the sound works is if it is started from the beginning.
    If anyone can help that would be fantastic.
    Thanks

    Hi Jeromie,
    Many thanks for your help. Here is some additional information, which may shed light on the problem.
    I am using Flash Professional CC  2014.0 release,  Build 14.0.0.110
    The computer I'm using is then iMac running OSX version 10.9.3 Build 13D65 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
    I am using Flash, not a web-based editor that leverages Flash Player.
    "a direct link to the project or tool would be useful in allowing us to attempt to reproduce the problem" -  Not sure how to do this, how can I add the project to the forum?
    Many thanks once again for your help, let me know if you need more information.
    Cheers
    Michael
