Why does FF4.0 experience hang problems when the latest version of the Adobe Flash plugin is enabled?

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version of Adobe Flash plugin, determined that this is the only version of the plugin recognized by FF, and determined that there is no Adobe extension running. The hang problems occur when opening most all web pages or when clicking on the sidebar and last for 10 to 30+ seconds. If the plugin is disabled, then there are no hang problems.

New plugins have never been downloaded automatically by Firefox, but Firefox scans the registry to search for new plugins.

    You don't have the typical symptoms that I associate the following issue with (normally the error kicks in just when folks visit the Store), but just in case try gn_id's suggestion from the following post:

    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR  software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others  they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so  I downloaded the software and installed again.
    Sorry, just this minute went to insert image  and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content  is not allowed?.
    The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr  SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
    The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting  GEAR drive is from:

  • I just downlouded the latest version of the Muse CC and it doesn't work well, it freezes all the time, in particular with the tools. Example the selection tool doesen't wor at all.

    I just downlouded the latest version of the Muse CC and it doesn't work well, it freezes all the time, in particular with the tools. Example the selection tool doesn't wor at all. Is there any solution for this problem?

    Hi!
    I restarted the computer, but the same issue happens again. When I move my mouse over some object or tool, it doesn’t come active at all (only some of the tools works) When I try to change “site properties”, I can’t choose tablet or phone mode or even I can’t select the checkboxes, only thing what I can do is change the numbers (high and width) . After all the main problem is that I can’t select some of the items or functions by mouse, but only by the keyboard.

  • After a tryout with AdBlock, the videos on Facebook, on BBC and on some others websites stopped working and there's always a message asking me to install the latest version of the Flash Player. Even though it's already installed. How can I fix that?

    After a tryout with AdBlock, the videos on Facebook, on BBC and on some others websites stopped working and there's always a message asking me to install the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player. Even though it's already installed the situation remains the same since the last month.
    Can I fix that just doing the upgrade for the Yosemite?

    Well, after hours of trying to figure it out I gave up and un-installed and re-installed that last verion of Adobe Flash Player and now it seems I can play games again in Messenger. Everything else had been fine just that. I can only figure it was because it was having a hard time updating the first time and took me 3 tries. So even though it said it was installed, apparently it wasn't done correctly.
    Though when I couldn't figure out what was wrong at first I looked and checked to see all the things were enabled that were supposed to be and they were.
    I even tried to go to the Adobe site and download the last version I had and couldn't find it. Kept coming up with the new version. Others said if you download a particular older version it may not have all the security features in it.
    This really gets to be a bit much, especially when you're by yourself and have only a smattering of knowledge of technical things.
    Thanks fore responding to my question.

  • Mac Safari message: To view this content, you need the latest version of the Flash Player. Adobe TV

    How do i get past this message?
    To view this content, you need the latest version of the Flash Player. Adobe TV uses the Open Source Media Framework (OSMF) to deliver a superior video experience. Please upgrade your Flash Player to version 10.2 to benefit from this technology.
    I am running Mac OS X 10.10.3 with the latest Safari version 8.0.5.
    I have uninstalled and removed cache and reinstalled the Flash Player 17 many times, but still get this message when i try to view a video in Adobe TV. 
    I have version 17 of Flash player installed but the Adobe TV is asking me to upgrade to v10.2.

    Try using a different browser and/or be sure to install and enable the Flash Player plugins for your browser.

    i have an iphone 4 with 4.3.2 version, want to upgrade but my phone is not getting detected on my comp  on itunes. i want to upgrade it to the latest version of the software, please help

    If your phone isn't being recognized by your computer, you need to follow the steps in this article to resolve that
    Also, some basic isolation needs to be done. Does it show up in itunes on any other computers? do you have other cords you can test with to see if it might be the cord? if the phone doesn't show up on any computers, it's likely your phone has a hardware issue
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US is the article to use if you want to concentrate on trying to get a particular computer to recognize your phone

  • Where is the latest version of the Domain Rename Tool?

    Where is the latest version of the Domain Rename Tool?
    Is this one?

    Hello,
    domain rename is NOT supported when using Exchange 2007 or higher. And NetBIOS rename is NOT supported on ANY Exchange version.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738208(WS.10).aspx
    "It is imperative that you not attempt a domain rename operation until you read and understand the contents of this technical reference. The domain rename operation is not supported in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2010.
    DNS domain rename is supported in Exchange Server 2003. However, renaming of the NetBIOS domain name is not supported in any version of Exchange Server."
    There are maybe also other applications/services that do not support this.

  • I downloaded Yosemite and now my iPhoto has a bar across it and will not open. I need to update to the latest version. The app store says the latest version is not available in the Canadian Store. What can I do.

    I downloaded Yosemite and now my iPhoto has a bar across it and will not open. I need to update to the latest version. The app store says the latest version is not available in the Canadian Store. What can I do.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • I can't find the scroll option on the latest version upgrade in Adobe Reader.

    I can't find the scroll option on the latest version upgrade in Adobe Reader.  Can someone please help me find it or activate it?  I have the latest version X1 version 11.0.2.  Thank you

    I have never seen that (scroll bar disappearing); it should always be there if a document length exceeds the current view.
    What is your operating system?  Are these local or online documents?  If online, in what browser?
    P.S. this is how my Reader 11.0.2 on Windows 7 looks when I open any PDF document

  • What is the latest version in the Blackberry Z10 operating system?

    What is the latest version in the Blackberry Z10 operating system?
    I read in the internet that there is an update to the BB OS but when I run the update on my device it gives me a message saying that I have the latest software; i.e.. 10.0.10.82
    Is this the latest, and if not, how can I get the device updated?

    The latest version available at the moment is 10.0.10.99 but updates are carrier dependent.
    So you have the latest version available for your carrier. Keep in mind that some small updates may not be applicable to your phone model or carrier network.

  • Which is the latest version of the ICP that works with TestStand 3.5?

    Hello, I'm trying to use an Agilent MPS 6700B thru its IVI driver.
    Accordingly to NI this driver needs ICP 4.1.
    Does anyone know which is the latest version of the ICP that works with TestStand 3.5?
    thanks in advance
    Martín.

    TestStand is usually forward-compatible with drivers. I highly doubt you'd have any issues using a later version of a driver, espcially something simple like IVI.
