Why does Firefox constantly ask me if I want to run plugins when it never used to? They are all up to date.

I have Shockwave Flash 16.0 r0.
Java 11.25.2
Java Deployment 8.0.250.18.
It's rather annoying.

hello monarail, you appear to have multiple versions of the flash plugin installed - for a possible solution please refer to https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1489272

    There can be various causes for this:

  • Why does Firefox keep asking me to set up my Sync account when I've already done it TWICE?

    Seems every time I restart my computer and open firefox, it forgets that I have already set up my sync account. Under Options/Sync is says "set up firefox sync." I have done it 2 times now and the browser still "forgets." Any idea what's wrong?
    I'm using Firefox 4 and an iPhone 4 with the app. I successfully synced 2 times with my iphone and then firefox proceeds to act like I never did. Very buggy!

    Hi Sigmo,
    You can turn those messages off, no problem.
    # In Firefox on your tablet, go to '''about:config'''
    # Use the search box at the top right to find '''browser.snippets.syncPromo.enabled''' and change it to '''false'''
    # Enjoy not being nagged about Sync any more. :)
    Hope that does the trick!

  • HT201401 why does my phone ask me several times to enter my password when I download an app?

    why does my phone ask me several times to enter my password when I download an app? I just got my first IPhone and find it hard to manage. Is it something in the settings?

    Settings>iTunes/App Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...now sign back in.

  • Why does my ipad ask me to sign into the iTunes Store when i start up my ipad?

    why does my ipad ask me to sign into the iTunes Store when i start up my ipad?

    Probably because you have not signed in in the Settings app. The iTunes and App Store keeps track of apps that need updating and auto updates apps for you. You need to be sign in for this to work.
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > sign in.

  • Why does firewall constantly ask me to allow iTunes to receive incoming connections?

    I enabled Firewall for my MacBook Pro 2012, running OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion, about two months ago.
    Everything was working fine, until a few weeks ago, when I was experiencing problems with logging in to my Mac.
    I tried booting up my Mac but it wouldn't boot.
    Then, I tried Recovery mode and restored my Mac from a time machine back-up.
    Everything worked fine, but since then my Mac has constantly asked me "allow incoming connection for iTunes".
    How can I solve this prolem?
    I've never had to allow connections for iTunes until after restoring my Mac from that Time Machine back-up.

    Also, I recently installed Alfred, and purchased a power-pack license.
    It installed an iTunes mini-player for me to have quick access to my songs.
    It was only after installing Alfred that I started to have to allow connections for iTunes.

  • Why does Firefox now ask for my master password every time I check my gmail account? Sometimes, but not always, for my Yahoo mail account. Never did this before. Thank you.

    Don't know how to add any more details.

  • Why does my iPad ask for a credit card to buy apps when I already have money on my iTunes account?

    Why does it do that? It used to do that for free apps to but once I put my credit card on it, it stop asking for free apps. But now it still wants a card even though I still have 20 dollars left from a birthday gift card. I heard somewhere that this was because of a new feature to stop kids from downloading apps that their parents don't want them to or buying a bunch of apps and racking up a huge bill, is this part of it?

    Is the card expired? You cannot have an expired card in your account.

  • If I delete a song on my iTunes, why does my iPod ask me if I want to transfer it back?

    I get a message during synch of my iPod (Classic) that says "there are purchases on your iPod that are not found in your iTunes library - do you want to transfer these?" This always makes me paranoid that maybe I have songs I want on my iPod that somehow aren't in my library, so I used to say "yes"....but then after a while, it seemed apparent that what was "missing" from my library are songs I have purposely deleted.  So then I was going through this endless loop of deleting, then transfering back, then deleting, then transfering back, then deleting......
    So, my question is: if I delete a song or game or whatever in my iTunes library, shouldn't it then just remove it from the iPod?  As I mentioned above, I find it confusing/alarming when it starts asking me if I want to transfer stuff back from my iPod.  Not sure how to tell what it is that it wants to transfer back?  Is there any setting that would tell iTunes that when something is deleted in the library, go ahead and delete it from the iPod?
    Thanks!

    If there a way where I won't have to delete it?
    I have these on my phone, ipad, home computer, and work computer.  If I listen to something, then I may have to delete 2 or 3 times on all these devices.
    Thanks

  • Why does Firefox always ask me to approve a resend when using back button?

    Almost every time I press the back button Firefox presents a pop up to ask if I want to resend. How can I stop this from happening? I just want it to go back to the previous page. It is an irritating waste of time to have to click the resend button all the time.

    It is ok that we get an alert before resending post data. But we don't want resend anything when we click on back button. We just want to see the page as was shown last time. When we want to resend data we may hit refresh on the page.

  • Why does firefox keep asking for permission every time it starts, it never has before?

    I'm using Windows 7 and recently used CCleaner to clean my registry and now Firefox asks for permission to make changes to my computer every time it starts. I have checked for viruses and malware, tried running Firefox as the administrator, removed all but one of my add-ons but nothing helps. Any suggestions?

    Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.<br />
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".<br />
    In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.<br />
    You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.<br />
    If you can't make the changes then you need to start Windows Explorer as Administrator.<br />

  • Why does Firefox constantly use 50-60% of my processes in Task Manager when I am not active on line?

    This is a frequent (2-3 times a day) occurrence when Firefox all of sudden is using processes even when I am not actually actively using websites? I may be just reading on a page and my task usage will be over 50%. Sometimes it will be just "firefox" and sometimes "plug-in for firefox".

    See if you still have the issue in Safe Mode http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode
    Maybe you have too many addons or a corrupted profile.

  • Why does firefox keep asking to update to 23.0.1 over and over agian after doing the update? (win 7 Home Prem)

    Updated up to V23.0 apparently with no problems (23.0 shown on Firefox/Help/About), Now keep getting the update to 23.0.1, I install it and everything seems fine, then the next day I get yet another request to update to 23.0.1. Now on at least 5th iteration. Op system is Win 7 home premium.

    Life's too short for this. I just turned off the auto update and will wait for the next update.

  • Why does Firefox not acknowledge that I have Silverlight already installed. When trying to work with "Getting Started" in Windows 7, it keeps telling me I have to download Silverlight to view this information.

    I recently purchased a new computer with Windows 7 OS. When trying to learn the transition experience from Windows XP to this new OS version, I was presented with this problem of going around in circles.
    When trying to view "Discover Windows 7" via "Start>Getting Started>Discover Windows 7", a Microsoft website opens to; (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/help/videos/personalizing-your-pc). It tells me; To view this contents, please install Microsoft Silverlight. Once I install it and get back to this page, I get the same message. I can not view any of the help content before installing Microsoft Silverlight. So now it is a never ending "CIRCLE of LIGHT"! Is this a problem with my Firefox or with Windows Microsoft 7?

    I'm not seeing the Silverlight plugin in your More system details list, so Firefox doesn't find it if you have it.
    I assume that you also do not see it in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins ?
