Update to 3.6.6 clashed with adobe flash update

crash and notification that there are restored pages to be tried in restart of firefox. dialog screen that advises adobe DLM needs to be updated. I removed EVERYTHING adobe from the system, flashes, updater, before I found that there was a cryptic directory in C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\415ltrzs.default\extensions\ containing some adobe garbage. I removed all of that junk too. Now 3.6.6 opens OK. I followed update process for flash as listed on support page(s). Flash seems to work. I'm going to rename the sessionstore.js to the former file to see if I can get the sessions going again after 4 hours of wriggling on this hook. I just thought someone else whould know there could be difficulty with doing a firefox version update at the same time as a session recovery and perhaps an adobe flash update.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== update to 3.6.6 and was prompted to update adobe flash player

What do you specifically mean by "plug in collapse".

Since lastest FF update along with Adobe Flash update browser is problematic, was there a problem with either of these updates??

Since updating FF and the Adobe plug in last week I've found that loading pages or clicking on links is totally frustrating. The pages either dont load or need refreshing 3 or 4 times before they finally do load or I get nothing but a blank page.
Or i get - track.php (ONG Image, 1x1 pixels) on the tab and the page just keeps loading and loading and loading...
With the links I either get no response at all no matter what I do and how many times I click on it, or I get multiple responses like I've power clicked the links when I've only clicked once!
This is happening in Facebook, Messenger (which I still operate email through IE with), RSVP, Arena, y Tagi and a few other random pages I've tried.

Some firewalls like Kaspersky can block content and send a 1x1 GIF image instead.

i downloaded an adobe flash update and my computer after next logon got a blue screen. I could only start in safe mode and until uninstalling the flash player could i start in safe mode with networking. i cannot open any microsoft products now. I get a message saying adobe acrobat 10 is not designed to run on windows or uninstall and reinstall it ....but it will not let me uninstall it. What do i do? is this all an adobe issue or a windows problem?? thanks Tim

Hate to suggest this, but you need to ask in the Flash forum. This forum is for Acrobat.

Adobe Flash Update infected Firefox with tons of viruses. Help!

I got with one of those annoying fake Adobe Flash Updates, and unfortunately fell for it and installed it, which has infected Firefox (and Chrome, and IE, for that matter) with tons of viruses that I CANNOT get rid of. I'm on a Windows 7 PC.
Basically, what they do:
- Adds "Enhanced Text" everywhere (text is underlined and leads to an ad)
- Adds unwanted banners on sites
- Frequent pop-ups
- Redirects my searches (Google is essentially unusable)
- Can't log-in to certain sites (eBay)
The last two are really killing me and making the internet very hard to enjoy. I've run Malwarebytes several times (first a quick scan, then a full scan), as well as TDSSKiller. Both detected malware and deleted them, but nothing changed. As per the internet's advice, I've tried disabling all my extensions/plug-ins, but doing that didn't help either - many reference specific extensions that cause these problems, like "CCodec" or "ghostery" but nothing like that appears in my add-ons menu. I went into Programs and Features and uninstalled anything suspicious-looking (which somehow lead to half that list disappearing? All my programs are still there, but for whatever reason that list shortened significantly), and still nothing.
I'm really at a loss here. None of my browsers are working properly and nothing I do seems to help.

Looks like you need to be locked and loaded for a virus to come, or just avoid it.
Can you try those scans in safe mode? Safe mode likely will prevent the malware from running at all during the safe mode session.

Download Adobe Flash update on Mac with Yosemite

I am attempting to install the Adobe Flash update on my Mac Book Pro with Yosemite. On every attempt the download bar stops at 30%. I have uninstalled Adobe and reinstall it and I get the same result. I would appreciate help in resolving this issue.

I just downloaded the installer... took all of 3 seconds to download. It's only a 1.2MB file.
Check to see if it has downloaded it anyways. Should see something like AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_17au_Itrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg if it's there, quit Safari from the menu bar, run the installer.
If it's not there, try a different browser. If that works, it's something in your Safari that's stopping it... could be an extension you have installed or adware.
You can also try a direct download from the Adobe site: (Under still having problems)

You Tube not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after latest update

You Tube and other sites are not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after latest update for both. Adobe Flash is working on other sites but not You tube and those sites that may have embedded You Tube videos, I'm not sure.
Adobe Flash does not crash and no error message is showing. All that shows is a dark screen for the Flash video. Right clicking the screen shows only a non-clickable 'Movie not loaded' and the clickable link to the Adobe home page.
I have spent an hour trying things as suggested for past problems similar to this but none have helped.
I have sent sad face letting you know what I think of the latest update because of this which says pretty much the same thing as I have said here.
I have no further info but if I had some input and queries form you I might be able to provide more.

I'm not sure how to remove the 12.xxx version,. I don't understand why it is there, usually updates over wirte the old one as far as I know. I don't know where to find it.
pref .js deleted.
I could not find a user.js
I disabled hardware acceleration on one of them, not sure which and I don't remember how I did it but think it must have been on the flash.
No idea what protected mode is
no new profile, I've never done this.
Ok, did what you have said as much as I could. I have been fidgeting with things now for a couple hours. After doing a CCleaner and Registry cleanse, turning off and restarting the computer, the videos are now p-laying.
I would still like to know how to find and get rid of the duplicate Flash plug in though if you would't mind.
Thanks for the help.

McAfee software forced install with latest Adobe flash update 12/26/14

So it seems that Adobe has once again chosen to go the route of not even giving an opt-out option for whatever 'software' they bundle their Adobe Flash update with. I fail to see how this practice creates anything but mistrust for these products from a consumers perspective. Having worked in IT and having had to deal with questions like "Why is my browser changed/messed up?" or "Why did X show up on my computer and is now spamming me to buy something?" it's frustrating knowing that in many cases it's large companies that are to blame. In this case it seems even more calculated coming right after a major holiday when inevitably more PC's and more inexperienced users enter the market.
I personally will never use McAfee or Google Chrome or (heaven forbid) Ask.com related software if this is how they intend to do business. I'd like to think that large businesses like Adobe would have better marketing strategies for their sponsors that don't create dissent and distrust among consumers.

Adobe's Flash Player update workflow does present the choice of also getting some "added value" software (e.g., AV - Search Engine stuff for browsers - etc.).
One simply unticks the boxes on the step that displays the choice.
Oh yeah, ya do gotta look rather than do a fast click through which will result in a gotcha eh.
One "gotcha" back in the day was all it took for me to "STAR" these sort of updates.
No "gotchas" since.
You'll observe similar with other software package updates (e.g., Java, etc.).

Problem with adobe flash player on my new computer

I bought a new computer window 8 and as you know adobe flash player is already installed but now flash player won't play some videos on the windows 8 internet exploer unless i swicthed it to the desktop. when i try to watch it says i need to install flash player but i have flash player that says on windows 8. so i there any way i can watch my videos?

This reply is to both of you trying to help me through my ordeal with Adobe Flash Player. I followed both of your advices to no avail. I even enlisted the help of my husband to see if I was doing something wrong or missing a step. He assured me I was doing everything by the book.
Well, bottom line is number
1: I never found "Extensions Adds ons and Plug Ins" in Firefox. I looked everywhere and it's simply not on my screen. I opened everything, looked at every line, every box, every space (with my husband next to me looking also).
Number 2: I got a message that reads: Firefox prevented this site (get Adobe.com) from asking you to install software on your computer.
By the way, I uninstalled Webroot at the beginning and never reinstalled it. Restarted my computer. Tried all the steps you guys suggested, restarted my computer I don't know how many times.
One time I got Adobe Flash Player installed "successfully" and then I got excited and tried YouTube, videos on Facebook, CNN and guess what? Nothing. No Adobe Flash Player.
By the way, my husband has the same problem at his work computer. He got an Information Systems technician to work on this and voila! he could not fix the problem either. Any other suggestions out there? If anybody from Adobe reading this?
To say I am fed up is putting it mildly. I am so mad at Adobe for putting this piece of garbage out there. I can only compare it to Vista.
Oh by the way, I keep getting this notice that my" windows drivers are out of date" and guess what? I have no idea which ones because they don't say. I checked my updates and supposedly I am up to date. I went to Microsoft and they have a million, so how am I supposed to know which ones?
I am also upset at Microsoft, ha, ha.
I am going to bed, tomorrow will be another day.

Firefox 3.6.23 having freezing and rebooting issues with Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin

Firefox 3.6.23 is experiencing constant freezing and rebooting issues with Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin, not sure if it is a conflict issue or not.
Since the update there had been no reported issues till today when the blue screen came up on me, this issue prior to plug in 11 had occurred at least 6 times, this issue only happens on firefox.
I do not wish to update since recent firefox browsers seem to have a lot of ongoing issues.

Anyone able to help please?
Thanks.

Adobe flash update fails

Flash update keeps asking me to quit safari. But Safari is not running
Anybody else with the same problem?

I feel your pain and have a solution that should work. I have been battling this for several weeks now, finally gave up, and wrapped up a call with an engineer an hour or so ago. Come to find out, regardless of what the O/S tells you in Activity Monitor about Safari, Dashboard, or both "not" running, these processes are in fact being called.
It seems that, at least in my case, on an up-to-date OS X / Safari combo, and with The Weather Channel widget installed, you will never get the newest Adobe Flash Player update to install. As soon as you remove The Weather Channel widget, the Adobe Flash update process will again work normally.
It makes absolutly no sense, but I and the engineer were able to reproduce the fix on my two systems and reproduce both the issue and the fix on his. I suspect this is a issue with The Weather Channel widget - or at least how it is interacting with the O/S and Safari. I suggest checking for any installed/active widgets that grab/stream any soft of content via the web, removing them, and re-running the Flash updater. I hope this helps.

I cannot play videos anymore after last adobe flash update

I cannot play videos anymore after the last adobe flash update. The screen shows "plug-in failure".

I experienced the same problem on my Win7 Pro SP1 x64 lenovo T410 laptop with Intel HD Graphics. There was no video driver update available.
I followed the instructions in this topic: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/853591 (step #4) and went back to version 10.2.
Problem solved. I just have to remember not to do any updates to flash player when prompted. I'll come here first to make sure the problem is fixed.

Why the Apple products does not work with Adobe flash player?

Could be better if the Apple products work with Adobe Flash Player, I know that Steve does not like to work with them, but I think will be necessary soon.

From Adobe's own site:
*** NOTE: FLASH PLAYER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED FOR NEW DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS. FLASH PLAYER WILL NOT BE SUPPORTED ON ANY ANDROID VERSION BEYOND ANDROID 4.0.x ***
While Flash Player remains on Google Play for installation on Android devices that are certified by the manufacturer, installing Flash Player on an uncertified device may result in unexpected behavior and can potentially destabilize your device. A list of certified devices can be found at http://www.adobe.com/go/certifieddevices. Flash Player WILL NOT be supported on any device shipped with or upgraded to an Android version beyond Android 4.0.x
Further comments on what is the case on Android devices is irrelevant. Adobe has dropped further development of Flash for mobile devices and Apple has made no indications that they have any plans to do so themselves, so it is highly unlikely that there will ever be a native Flash player for any iOS device.
'nuff said on the matter. Regards.
