Weird flash plugin behaviour

Hello guys and girls.
Recently I switched back from catalyst to the opensource driver. Everything worked fine after that.
Now I updated my system a week ago and for some reason my flash player behaves weirdly since then.
When I got 2 or more tabs open and all of them having flash active, flash stops displaying correctly when I close one of them.
Is this a known problem? I couldn't find any posts mentioning this, so I thought I should post a topic here.
Thanks in advance,
szt

I've been having flash issues lately too, although different ones from yours. Flash videos on lots of sites refuse to go fullscreen. sometimes they will go fullscreen once, but if I unfullscreen and try again it will be broken until I restart firefox. youtube is the only site it works reliably on. I resolved my issues by using chromium and chromium-pepper-flash, which is far more up to date and less buggy than flash 11.2

  • Flash plugin only crashing in Mozilla

    Have trouble when navigating facebook.
    Mozilla hangs for 5 to 6 seconds, freezing every mozilla tab or window that is open and sometimes crashes.
    On facebook I get the "script is taking too long" message but I suspect that it has something to do with flash cause from time to time I get the plugin container failed related to flash and some other weird behaviour with flash (see below)
    Things I tried:
    - Disable every plugin.
    - Running safe mode
    - Refresh Firefox
    - Disable hardware accelleration on the flash plugin
    - Disable safe mode for Flash plugin
    - Completely uninstal flash according to this procedure:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
    I am running a recently freshly instaled win 8.1 on a 12GB RAM i7 quad processor.
    The thing that makes me suspect is that according to this link:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    When I right click the flash logo for that procedure, Mozilla freezes, nothing gets displayed and some seconds later I get a "Shockwave Flash might be busy... stop plugin..." message
    This is very annoying and I want to use Firefox but have been forced to chrome lately cause I cannot find this problem.
    Please, any help is appreciated.
    Here are the latest crash reports:

    Main problem is not using or not using flash.
    Main problem is with facebook page hanging mozilla for several seconds at a time and sometimes getting "script is taking too long" I guess this have to do with the scritp that loads posts on your facebook wall as you scroll down but cannot find what is causing that.
    This only happens with Mozilla.
    Searching for the cause, I found that odd behaviour with flash on that page wich maybe suggest the problem is there but I still haven't found a solution.

  • Using OSX 10.8 DW CS6 when I click "live" it says "flash plugin" "not found".

    Using DW CS6 when I click "live" it says "Flash Plugin was not found. To view Flash content in Live View install the Firefox Flash Plugin from www.adobe.com."
    My default browser is Chrome. DW uses Chrome as the primary browser. (FFox is secondary.)
    I do have Firefox and do not have Flash on it. I open Flash content Chrome, and I installed an HTML5 video viewer add-on in FFox (but haven't tried it yet).
    I also have the Dreamweaver HTML5 Video View add-on, so why am I getting that message? Furthermore, the HTML code doesn't have any Flash objects. (The code is the source HTML from www.google.com page, without any changes.)
    How do I make DW display the "Live" view of the code without giving me an error? (My end goal is to find out what google does when you enter something in the search box and hit the Enter key, actually, I'd like to see why the result of the search is displayed the way it is - default should be Web view, but Image view shows instead. I want Web to show!)

    "Why would anybody paste Google's source code into their own web page?" To learn from it.
    I'm sorry Phil, but you can't learn much from Google's source code because search engines are dynamically programed with behind-the-scenes code and content from databases that you can't see.  You're just spinning your wheels here.  If you want to learn how to make a search engine, I'd be happy to point you to some relevant PHP & MySql tutorials.
    The issue still remains that DW is giving me the error (flash plugin not found)
    When DW starts acting weird, the first thing to try is Deleting Corrupted Cache in DW

  • Firefox 34.0.5 says Adobe Flash plugin is blocked, but update check reports my Flash plugin (ver. 16.0.0.235) is current. How to fix???

    About 1 month ago, I updated Flash and Firefox to most current versions. Firefox 34.0.5, running on WinXP, SP3, shows Adobe Flash plugin as ver. 16.0.0.235, but this is now being blocked again. No other versions of Flash are evident. When I choose option on Flash screen to check plugins are up to date, Firefox reports Flash plugin is up to date.
    This program behaviour is wrong and should be fixed. Checking at Adobe, current Flash is 16.0.0.305.
    Who or what is broken here? Is Firefox broken, and not reporting correctly that more current Flash plugin is available?
    I do not appear to have previous versions of Flash installed on system. This combo of software was working correctly for a while, and then became broken, without a proper path to allow users to resolve it. If Firefox is rigged to "Block" a plugin, then it *MUST* be configured to easily and **CORRECTLY** allow that plugin to be updated. Using most current software, my clicking on the "Check for updates" feature reports that Adobe Flash is most current version. Arrrrgh!!
    I am now back to "diagnose and fix broken Firefox+Flash" exercise, which I just went thru.
    Best solution here would be to allow user to easily override the "blocking" mechanism. This would assist users who only use Flash video access on trusted sites.
    If there is an obvious solution to this current Flash "BLocking" goofery, please inform. Otherwise, if and when I resolve this, I will post a reply to my own question here, indicating what I did to fix this, as it appears to be affecting other Firefox+Flash users, without a clear solution being posted.

    Adobe issued 3 new Flash 16 versions in January alone, then another new one - .305 - in February, ''along with one in early December. Five new versions in 2 months time''. So with updating Flash "about 1 month ago", you are probably 2 or 3 versions behind the latest Flash 16 version.
    Note that Adobe has its own internal updater, which by default is set to check for an update ''(only)'' once a month. Adobe does their own updates for their software, Firefox just tells you when your version is on the blocklist due to known security issues with the version you have installed. It is up to you to do a manual update between the monthly update check that Flash does for your installation.
    The "solution" is for Adobe to fix their stuff. Like maybe an updater that checks for updates more frequently, and not hide their updater user preferences where users don't know where they are and be able to set it for more a frequent update check cycle. ''[Firefox "checks" every time Firefox is launched, as does Chrome]''. Or fix the code in Flash that leads to it being so exploitable, and not have to do 5 separate security fixes in as little as a 2 month time span. ''Flash went almost 2 years prior to Dec 2014 without Mozilla needing to blocklist it, and when Mozilla did first blocklist it in Dec it was / is a soft-block where the user can still use it by using Allow per Flash presentation.''
    My advice is to grab the Extended Support Release - Flash Player 13.0.0.269 from here - https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html - over 3/4 down that page. IMO the best version for WinXP users, as the later versions have features for Vista and later versions of Windows - won't work on WinXP or may cause problems on WinXP.

  • Adobe flash plugin is making my firefox crash

    At the Beginning of the month, my FF started acting weird. After disabling DEP (which caused a whole lot of other problems) my FF started runing for about one day. After about a week of playing with it, I narrowed my problem to flash player. If I disable it, everything works fine, but i like watching videos. I currently have norton and i don't know what to do! help!

    Very odd issue indeed. [[Managing the Flash plugin]] click this link and read threw how to uninstall it and reinstall.
    You could also try new [[Profiles]] to see if something is corrupting the plug-ins report.

  • Flash plugin for Firefox: it has trouble after 6-9 hours!

    Hi,
    Vista32 sp2, 4GB Ram, ALL Adobe Flash plugin for FF versions, now 11.1.102.55.
    perhaps dxdiag.txt needed?
    Issue:
    when Firefox 3.6 (in the past) or 8.0 (now) remains open, after 6-9 hours I become issues with Flash plugin for FF.
    ALL YT videos (240p up to 1080p) playback with jumpiness!! with or without acceleration.
    ActiveX for IE9 works fine on the same machine. No problem with Silverlight in FF.
    Solution: kill the flash plugin process in task manager >refresh the YT video's page > playback again ok.
    why the flash plugin is fatigued after 6 or 9 hours?
    is it able to handle good the memory usage?
    May you want to suggest me a workaround to get the video's palyback smoothly even if Firefox is running a lot of time (without killing the process in task manager)?
    or could I to wait for an update of flash plugin in the future that adresses this issue?
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    best regards.

    Hi, 
    Thank you both for your reply!
    @Campbell:
    the same effects with or without having the flash acceleration enabled.
    I dont know if I am enough able to file a bug request.
    I have done (hopefully it is right?
    I warmly hope that the Adobe Engineers will read and reproduce my issue and they may want to send me an email if the issue will be resolved.
    this were wonderfull.
    my OS/hardware seems not too old
    no problem in watching/editing full HD content.
    if you mean that my bug report looks correct and exhaustive, please forward him to the developers.
    (I hope that the report will not be closed, even if it becomes poor votes). thanks.
    @ ɹəuəllıʍ :
    Yes the same problem in Firefox 8.0 too
    (in my old FF 3.6: no issues regarding the jumpiness in Silverlight, therefore I think that this was/is perhaps an issue in "Flash player for FF" only: jumpiness after 6-9 hours usage).
    But the new FF 8.0 offers the same behaviour after 6-9 hours.

  • The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0

    The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0, and my Plugin Check link in Addons Manager directs to https://www.mozilla.com/en/404 .
    Is this a hack attempt? Is Firefox 3.6 safer than the release channel?

    Thankss, but it sounds a bit complicated for me. Maybe I can just reinstall FF?
    ~And would switching back to FF 3.6 (or whatever the latest Official release is), rather than being on the new Release Channel be safer than FF 12?

  • Firefox updated to its newest version 12.0. Now my Adobe Flash plugin freezes and hangs every website when it is enabled even though it is the newest version.

    Today Firefox updated to its newest version 12.0. Immediately after update, I couldn't load most websites. The web browser would just freeze. I have determined that the culprit is the Adobe Flash Plugin, however; even with the newest version of the plugin, I am still having problems. Any suggestions?

    can you try this suggestion [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing%20the%20Flash%20plugin#w_playing-flash-videos-makes-firefox-hang] and/or [[How do I upgrade my graphics drivers?]]

  • Firefox ESR 10.0.12 disables flash plugin - updates to the last version do not work?

    Suddenly - without any actions by me - FF ESR 10.0.12 refuses to accept Adobe Flash? (System Win 7 64 Ultimate)
    It started with a very annoying bar, which cost me 2 hours to deactivate, which told me to update an very old and unused Adobe Reader plugin. Then it insisted, that the Foxit PDF reader plugin was not up to date. Since I do not use it, I deactivated it too. Since I seldom use Flash, I just found out today, that youtube does not work anymore - FF insists, that my flash plugin is too old and it deactivated it.
    This has cost me hours up to now and it is _exactly_ the reason why I use the ESR channel.
    What I did:
    Deinstalled Adobe Flash completely (using Windows). Used the normal Firefox update, which it recommends (your flash player was deactivated, please install...). No success, it simply goes into a loop, always telling me my flash player is too old.
    I also installed it directly from Adobe (the Firefox version!!), in all cases it reports version 11.5.502.104. The last version from Adobe - but it seems to be too old???
    I am spitting angry now - this kind of trouble is the reason I only use ESR versions from Mozilla. I do not want your chaos troupe to play around with _my_ installation. But obviously you found ways to do so.
    If this is not solved (and no, I will _not_ reinstall Firefox, I will _not_ delete my profile) in a few days, Firefox is dead for me. I am already looking to Chrome and Opera. Many friends have these browsers - I am a bit conservative, and I want my browser stable and the look an feel should be stable also. I do _not_ want a new version every two weeks, which every time costs my effort and time to configure it how I want it.
    The question here is: How did you manage to disable the last version of Flash, and why? Why must I now register here and invest valuable time to get my browser to work again?? If I had done something, installed or removed something, ok. But I did not. (And yes, up to now I did update Flash and other plugins, when I was prompted to do so)
    Clearly _your_ management does _not_ work: If I use the solutions which FF itself recommends, it sends me in an endless loop: Install newest Flash, sorry, Flash is outdated, install newest Flash...
    Is this the 'new security'? Bah. If you did this for the 'normal user' (which you obviously do not respect anymore), you failed. And you failed completely for me: If software insists to do things 'automatically', it should at least do them reliably, _or_ it should ask. But working in the background, changing important things, reporting nothing, and then failing is exactly the reason why I disable all 'automatic' activities and want to be _asked_ before some idiotic piece of c.... deconfigures itself - and stops working...
    Hints to the Troubleshooting Info below:
    At this time Flash player is installed, shows in the systems software list as 'Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin', Version 11.5.502.146. The rest are my normal plugins. Serveral changes to about:config were done by me in an effort to make FF usable again, without nagging 'info' bars...

    Additional information - according to the wiki you pointed me to, it was correct to uninstall flash using Windows control panel. I am very sure that I already had the latest version installed from the beginning, because Flash player pointed me to an update on Windows start (as usual) several days ago.
    The error clearly lies with FF, since despite an up to date Flash player it decided it wants it new - something to do with the blacklist? How can it tell, that its outdated, if it does not find it and not show it in the list of plugins?
    There is something fishy here...

  • Flash plugin works well on Chrome, but why it does not work on Firefox? :(

    I've updated Flash Player quite a number of times, but whenever I try to play a video on Youtube or any other websites, the same line of words appears asking me to download Flash Player. I've got the Adobe Flash Player installed not long ago and it works just well on Chrome. The flash plugin in Internet Explorer is not working too..
    please help ~

    Google Chrome comes with its own version of the Flash Player plugin.
    Your system details list doesn't show that the Shockwave Flash plugin is installed and enabled.

  • I am not able to print pdf file from coursesmart website. i disabled flash plugin and only images are on the pages. When i preview, i only see blank page...help

    Doesn't work in Google Chrome either.
    Looks that the page has a lot of protection measures (context menu is disabled) and DIVs that overlay each other, so it is possible that the print routine only sees an empty DIV and not the image or the real page.<br />
    That big image consists of two parts as you can see via Tools > Page Info > Media and the inspector.

  • Firefox Flash plugin crashes when FF launched with "Run as different user"

    I often start Firefox in Windows 7 (x64) using the "Run as different user" mechanism. After upgrading my Flash plugin to v11 (11.8.800.94), the browser will hang for several minutes when visiting any page that contains Flash content. When Firefox becomes responsive again, scrolling a page with Flash content will cause the app to hang again. Disabling the Flash plugin eliminates the problem.
    It seems the plugin is silently crashing -- I'm not alerted to a plugin crash in any way (no dialog or yellow "Flash player crashed" notice at the top of the window), but after FF hangs I will see a new crash report entry in the FF about:crashes list. An example crash report is available at https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/ff452291-b5b2-44e4-a172-416792130818
    The plugin does not crash when Firefox is running under the same account that is logged onto Windows interactively -- only when running FF as a different user. For example, if I log onto Windows with user account Adam and launch FF normally, the problem does not exist. If I close FF and launch it as user Bob (shift+right-click Firefox Shortcut, choose "Run as different user"), the problem will appear. However, if I log into Windows as user Bob and launch FF normally, the problem does not exist.
    I have tried the following as troubleshooting steps, all to no effect:
    Create new Windows user accounts to rule out potential Windows or Firefox profile issues.
    Use another PC (also Windows 7 x64). The same behavior occurs on both PCs
    Disable AVG antivirus.
    Upgrade Firefox to latest version (23.0.1).
    Disable Flash hardware acceleration.
    Give both user accounts full local admin privileges.
    Can anyone suggest something to try next?
    Update: Per the troubleshooting instructions at < http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071?tstart=0 >, I was able to eliminate the problem by adding the line
    ProtectedMode=0
    to my C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg file to disable Flash Player Protected Mode. There are instructions on that page for submitting a Protected Mode-related bug, and I will follow through with that.

    Maybe you did't understand my previous statement. There are no crashes in FF 3.6, There is no previous evidence FF 14 was ever here, I completely uninstalled all trace of Firefox, no app data, no preferences, no cache. I will upgrade to FF14 so I can send IDs,
    so here ya go.

  • Firefox29, on a new win7 computer which has never had ff installed, will not install the latest flash plugin from adobe.

    I promise to refrain from venting my disgust :-) but when FF 9 blew up the entire web. I had all kinds of issues so I did things like Bill Gates taught us to do. I re-installed windows 7, brand new, formatted HD and all. The very first thing I did was open IE to download FF29 from the mozilla site and it installed. I went to pages I know have fits with flash on purpose, www.nydailynews.com, for instance and got the message that no flash was installed, do I want to install it? Well, yes, I have brand new FF on a brand new computer, so to ahead. Did the usual, installed Flash, shut down, and even rebooted the computer, and golly gee, the web pages tell me I have no flash installed. Its in IE, and of course chrome, and it appears in the installed program control panel, but I can't use flash with FF 29.
    I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled win 7, then installed ff 28. Went to adobe and installed their latest flash version, and still no flash in any version of firefox. I also checked the option to never update, but when I rebooted an opend FF29, it miraculously turned into FF29, and of course still does not work with the flash plugin.
    I think firefox has had a world of trouble with Adobe Flash for over a year and have hoped for a solution. Basically a browser that cannot run Flash media is totally useless. I wonder why this problem was no addressed and corrected, when instead all the the resources were put into raping my computer and forcing FF29 onto it?
    I am not a cry baby, who wants to complain, but will you please fix this issue so I don't have to abandon my favorite browser.. I don't enjoy Chrome, and IE is just not an option for me.
    Before you make any moreoverhauls on the UI, could you fix the problems with flash. I find it a little condescending to tell a 25 year user of computers to make sure " you have the latest versions" when in fact I have a brand new install of windows and the very latest from Adobe and Mozilla and they do no wok together, even when I down grade to FF 28, which as I told you, automatically upgrades to FF 29 each time I boot up.
    Please help. IF installing the latest Adobe onto a brand new hard drive and install of windows 7 fails, what do you suggest, as the usual " version issue" cannot apply here.
    FWIW, I have vista on my laptop with the same problems, the same reinstalls and the same guaranteed latest versions. Since the hd is formtted, there cannot be an residual FF dlls hanging around or in the registry.
    I have always seen open source as the way to the future, since the first PC arrived, but its looking like a bad idea.
    If you want to build a firefox that works, I will pay for it, so long as I can get help when things break. Browsers are huge in the web, so paying for reliable performance seems like a fair thing to do.
    I am sorry, but I am frustrated at the lack of progress towards a solution and really do not wish to be told to see if I am using the latest versions. I have taken every step possible and gone all the way to a brand new machine and FF does not work with flash reliably.
    Help? Please?

    adobe test page says it is installed. but I said, some pages I visit say I don't have it installed.
    I use prefbar ( I delete it and reinstall to make sure its not an issue) usually because it lets me turn off flash and avoid the crashing and locking up but when I check the flash block on prefbar, it says " plugin is not loaded"
    I posted from the machine that does not work, but it does not work on my Vista Laptop, or my daughter's computer either. In all cases, I wiped the drives and reinstalled the OS and went directly to Firefox for 29 and to adobe for their latest.
    Flash IS installed on my machine... It works in IE, and Chrome, but firefox 29 does not install the flash plugin, even tho the installer says all is well
    The reason I went totally clean is to make sure there was no process blocking it or if Java was creating the issue as well. The reality is, I started with a brand new computer, three times, and Flash will not load into Firefox 29 in any case
    I have started clean many times now and backed up and installed ff 28. I had no problem with the flash plugin using ff28, . I would have stayed there, but when shut down ff 28 and opened it later, it "magically downgraded to version 29" and i do mean " downgraded -( even tho I had gone into options and said do not install updates.
    I am grateful for your attention. I find that web browsers are very important anymore, an a non functional one makes the web a waste. I mentioned www.nydailynews.com and would really not want to make a long list of every page that demands a flash plugin, for they are legion that I don't have, mostly because when the page wants flash, FF locks up. Its will not even let me copy the URL to try and make a list, but the browser is totally locked up and I have to kill the process I get the message I have been getting for about a year that the shockwave plugin has stopped working. There is no shockwave on my computer.
    I know it looks like I have two different problems as the plugin does not load, but for instance, when I got it worrking in FF28, it loaded but constantly crashed an locked up the browser with the shockwave message, even tho I never install shockwave any time
    Frustration is the word for the day, or the week :-)
    Thanks much
    Kind regards,
    John
