What is a Blocked plug in?
What is a blocked plug in?
One that Apple may have blocked for security reasons, currently likely to be Flash Player related.
Two bugs, one affecting Apple's Mac platform and another attacking Microsoft's Windows, exploit certain Flash player vulnerabilities to install malware onto users' systems, reports ArsTechnica. While users of other operating systems like Linux have yet to report attacks, Adobe's advisory notes the exploit affects all platforms.
Designated as CVE-2013-0634, the first vulnerability targets the Safari and Firefox Web browsers running on OS X, and is also being used as a trojan to deploy Microsoft Word documents containing malware. For Mac users, the flaw affects Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.146 or earlier.
On March 1 Apple again blocked Flash Player for Lion and Mountain Lion:

The Adobe Flash patch can be found on Adobe’s website, and users can visit this page to check if their software is the most curent version.
You should uninstall any previous version first, and repair permissions after installing the new version.

What is a blocked plug-in and how do I eliminate it?
Well, DUH to me -- of course it does! And once again, the message was to update Adobe Flash. Problem: what I got when I did that was not, repeat not, the most recent, but 11.3; after some more diddlefussin' I now have 11.4, and problem is solved. Thank you.

I have a Mac Book Pro, What kind of software should i buy to able me to watch movie on the net. Right now it just said " Blocked plug in"
The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
The type of plugin that you need depends on the type of video file that you wish to view. We would need more details to assist. -
HT5655 did what instructions said, still get blocked plug in what to do next?
recently had bloked plug in come up, did as instructions said and downloaded and installed new adobe. still get blocked plug in message.
what should i try next?Remove it from the computer either using the installer, or remove it manually, then reinstall with a fresh download (I suggest removing anything from your downloads folder prior.)
Click on Go (along the toolbar, with Safari open) > Computer
Macintosh HD > Library > Internet plug-ins
Delete anything to do with Flash. XPT, plugins, anything. Reinstall from the fresh download, restart the computer.
Let me know if that doesn't work. -
