What is the fix for the shockwave crash?  I have tried several.....
I have win7 and firefox

You are right — insofar as this forum is for the Shockwave Player, the plug-in for content created with Director.
However, many years ago Macromedia decided to call their brand new player for Flash content "Shockwave Flash", presumably in an effort to piggy-back on the mind-share that Shockwave had already gained. This has caused endless confusion ever since, especially now that the Flash Player keeps crashing. Take my advice and (search then) post on the Flash Player forum — you'll see any number of threads about crashes, presumably with some recommended fixes too

  • I am the administrator for my computer, however I have tried several times to install itunes but keep getting an error message.

    Apple gives an error signal saying that I need to be an adminstrator to make changes to all the users...there is only one adminstrator account and one guest account.

    It reads that I don't have enough adminstrative privileges for every account to download the program
    I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
    Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
    Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply.

    and a newbie question....if I have to reinstall, where is the software to do it

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without be charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • The fix for the A12E1 Error code!!

    After weeks of talking to people at Adobe and doing every single fix they told me and having complete failure every single time I finally got it nailed thanks to the 6-7th guy I talked to!
    Here is the fix for A12E1....
    On your computer you will create a NEW USER ACCOUNT
    Be sure to give it ADMINISTRATOR access
    Go to Adobe.com and download CRETIVE CLOUD, it will install the CC as well as the ADOBE APPLICATION MANAGER
    When the install is complete and you've downloaded all of the programs you want SWITCH BACK to your old USER ACCOUNT and the programs will all be in there ready to roll.
    I never thought I would be done with this giant pain but it really does work
    Hit me up on Twitter and let me know how it goes for you. @Bruce_Bishop
    Enjoy

    Uninstall the application, reinstall it. Also download the update manually from the Adobe site. Without knowing anything about your system, it doesn't get any more specific than that. And please ask such questions in the product specific forum next time.

  • Anyone know when Mac will have the fix for the slow internet due the 10.8.2. upgrade?

    I just uped to 10.8.2 on a Mac pro, and know the internet throughput has dropped from a Ping of 87, download 24.24 Mbps , upload 3.82 Mbps to a ping of 248, download .37 and up of .17.  I have plugged two other Macs (one at a time) into the same network cable as above and got the per 10.8.2 upgrade speeds. Seems that one must conclude that the slow internet issue must be due to the 10.8.2 upgrade. When will Mac have the fix for this?

    This is sounding more and more like your ISP's DNS servers are slow; have you tried using Google Public DNS and checking if that speeds things up for you?

  • Plugin CONTAINER keeps crashing, now a specific plugin noted, but sometimes Adobe crashes too... What is the fix for the CONTAINER?

    I have had this problem for a few months. I am using version 3.6.12, have always updated when noticed, couldn't find a resolution for the problem and have been waiting to see if the fix came with one of the updates, but it continues. Firefox will just stop working, if a video is playing, the sound still goes on for a while, but I notice the crash if I go to a screen and it fades upon a click with the revolving wheel turning... then note that my Windows Vista system say, FIREFOX NOT RESPONDING. Always trying to resolve the problem, Windows only comes back with the Plugin Container has crashed. I have had problems with the Adobe Flash player crashing too. I was told in a Windows Vista forum that the plugin noted to be for Windows Vista 32 bit was the same and good for Windows Vista 16 bit.... but I tend not to believe this with all the problems I am experiencing here now.

    I read a few similar reports, however, referencing specific plugins, and one frequently mentioned in replys was the Adobe plugin. The suggestion there was to downgrade to 3.6.6. I have since done this, I will update if it worked or not. I disabled automatic updates of Firefox due to this problem. I hope to see Firefox notify users of the fixes the next updates will contain. With all due respect to Firefox, if this downgrade works, I will hesitate to update until I know this problem is corrected as it is to severe and troublesome. Thank you.

  • What is the fix for the following error? "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later"" (Error Code: U43M1D207)

  • HT1222 What's the fix for the Flashback Installer virus?

    I am infected with the fake Flashback Adobe installer. I deleted everything associated with it, ran my Intego Virus Barrier 6, installed the authentic Adobe Flashback and changed my email password in my Mac mail and in the mail program from my ISP but the viral emails keep on coming.
    When will there be a fix for this?

    Helpful Links Regarding Flashback Trojan and Virus Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    A link to a great User Tip about the trojan: Flashback Trojan User Tip.
    To check for the trojan: Anti Flashback Trojan 2.0.4.
    A Google search can reveal a variety of alternatives on how the remove the trojan should your computer get infected. This can get you started. Or the preferred method is to use Apple's protection tool: Flashback Malware Removal Tool 1.0.
    Or, open Software Update. If you do not have the Apple protection software installed it will download and install it via Software Update. If no update appears that means you either already have it installed or it isn't needed for your system. The software is only available for Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion versions of OS X.
    Also see Apple's article About Flashback malware.
    For general anti-virus protection I only recommend using ClamXav.

  • Apple has found the fix for the whine.

    After sending my MacBook Pro of to repair and getting it back without the whine being gone I have come to the conclusion that they need to include ear plugs with every MacBook Pro they sell. This is the first Apple product I have had any issues with (5th apple in 2 years) in addition this is my first dealings with Apple Care and let me say it was the WORST experience I have ever had. I guess I hold Apple to a higher standard then Apple itself does.

    What noise do you have ? The screen induced noise or the CPU noise ?
    I only have the display related noise (inverter). I demanded that it be replaced as I found ou it is NOT part of the logic board. I said I would pay for the cost of the replacement and did not want to get the "Unable to reproduce compalint" response.
    The Apple Specialist said that would not necessary, he would request the replacement.
    He did indicate that the engineers said it "normal" I said no way.
    I have a box on the way.
    When and if they repair it I will note the part number on the Service Details report to all.
    Crossing Fingers! No fix and it is E-Bay time.

  • [Athlon64] Possibly THE fix for the RS480M2!

    No, not a joke about liberal use of a sledgehammer here... 
    Okay, I think, after literally about two dozen reinstallations of Windows, that I have narrowed the problem (all of them - Depending on other settings, I can reproduce just about all of the complaints I've seen here, but this one seems to cause the actual underlying flaw that the rest simply modify) down to a single BIOS (v3.3) setting:
    Set your MPS mode to 1.1 (this requires turning APIC on first, and you should then leave it on).  You might want to clear CMOS first (note that neither of the "official" methods actually do a full clear, you must unplug the system and take the battery out for a few hours.
    As I understand it, this should have no real meaning on a single-processor board, but it makes a world of difference.  I had commented about a week ago that turning off APIC seemed to help, but not entirely.  I now see that I should have explored that partial fix just a little bit further.  Well, at least I finally got it right.   
    If anyone can confirm this on their own box with a similar setup to my own, it would probably help a LOT of people out.
    Note that I have not tried the 3.4 BIOS, and since I finally have this miserable board working, I probably won't flash the BIOS again until/unless I absolutely need to for dual core support (if MSI even decides to support them on the RS480M2 line).
    As a warning, you will need to reinstall windows after changing this - at the very least, a repair install - in order to fully benefit from it (and quite likely, Windows won't even boot anymore after changing this, until you reinstall).  With XP pro (SP2 slipstreamed), you should only need the MSI drivers for the audio, video, and SMBus (and I installed AMD's Athlon 64 drivers for XP as well, though you don't totally need to, unless you want C&Q to work correctly).
    If a couple people post negative responses, I'll post my full BIOS settings some someone to try.  But, I think I reduced the problem to this one setting.

    @pla
    I'm all for tweaks that stablize the ATI motherboard. On the surface I don't see how changing the MPS from version 1.4 to 1.1 will do anything. MPS version relates to Multi-Processor Specification. It should only affect multi processor boards. I would be surprised if it actually did anything on the RS480M2. Especially since it is such a legacy setting that only affected operating systems prior to Windows NT.
    That being said, I'm game to try other settings and there is the remote chance that this change could affect how IRQs are handled by the board. The following is a quote from Intel about the differences in MPS 1.1 vs 1.4.
    "MPS version 1.4 added extended configuration tables to improve support for multiple PCI bus configurations"
    I still have a PCI TV Tuner problem that I think is related to IRQ conflicts with the onboard NIC. I'll try it and see if it does anything for me.

  • Updates for PS CS5 keep failing, have tried several times but no luck

    I've just installed Photoshop CS5 on my laptop, running Windows Vista SP2.  When trying to update the software, i keep getting a download error:
    Adobe Bridge CS5 4.0.5 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Adobe Extension Manager CS5 5.0 Update
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
      Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Photoshop CS5
      There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later.
    I'm not that tech savvy when it comes to analyzing log files to see what the error is (that was Adobe's suggestion!) so can't go down that route.
    I've tried several times via the programme, and also via the Adobe download website, but still get the same errors.  I'm also unable to update the programe on my PC running Windows 7.  I realise that Adobe want everyone to update to CC, but I cant afford to do that!  Anybody got any solutions?

    Please clean AAM cache By deleting following folder contents:

  • HT6065 what about a fix for the broken VPN?

    When is Apple going to fix the VPN in Mavericks? Keeps disconnecting, after random (but typically short, an hour or two) up-time. It used to stay connected for days pre-Mavericks (same computer, same router, same VPN destination).

    It will not connect to your laptop ( except for internet tethering, if you subscribe to this service from your carrier) ot any other iphone (except from within supported Apps from the app store).
    Most have no issue with bluetooth, when using with supported devices.
    It seems you have an issue with your bluetooth.  Is you car stereo in discover mode?  Have you talked to the make of your car stereo to see if they support iphone?

  • A fix for the crash problem.

    Firefox has been extremely annoying on an XP machine with it's constant crash reports requiring uninstall and reinstall several times till it starts working again. However, periodically repairing Firefox was worth the headache for the benefit of Firefox’s performance. Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 8 was installed hoping it contained the fix for the crash report problem; it didn't. BUT, the new crash report post-mortum file list provides another means to identify a probable cause. The file list was discovered after about the third crash and it was noted that Firefox was attempting to load an internet filter dll file from C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM instead of C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 which had the correct version. Evidently, the internet filter program update placed the newer version dll in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 and did nothing with the older version dll in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM or the registry mapping. A copy of the newer version dll was placed in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM and it has been smooth sailing with Firefox ever since. Thanks for adding the post –mortum file list; it provided a means to identify and fix the problem. Firefox is working great and the snail’s pace Internet Explorer 8 has been retired. Thanks again!

    ''Problem:'' For whatever reason, NoScript is stopping Runescape Community Toolbar from working properly which freezes your first Firefox window.
    ''Fix:'' Uninstall the toolbar. Disable NoScript. Install the toolbar. Add your RS account to it and make sure it works, then Enable NoScript again.
    EDIT: Posted a fix earlier that was wrong. Corrected to the right one, sorry ^_^ Answer was on Runescape Forums.

  • Fix for the Identity change with Siri

    After trying all different ways to sync my phone and my wife's Iphone through the cloud sharing contacts and calenders, I think I have the fix for the identity change that Siri does.  I turned off the contact sync on iCloud and it stopped swapping identities.  I think that sharing contacts makes the iCloud think there is only one user.  Downside of the cloud but not worth the hassle factor.  I will sync contacts through iTunes.

    What model of Mac?  I have a MBP running 10.7.3 and do not have that issue.  From the other couple of posts I've seen about it, it seems to be maybe an issue with some iMacs?  Have your tried searching the Lion or iMac forums for similar issues, just to see if anyone has hit on why it is happening?
