Why does Flash in Safari make my fans scream - Same on PC is quiet?

What's up with Apple and Flash?
When viewing tutorials on Total Training my MacBook Pro's fans are screaming. The same page on my 3 year old Thinkpad X31, not the latest tech for sure, runs quiet as a whisper.
The latest Flash player 10. r 32 are installed. All computers are updated.

You could try this. I'm trying it now...

  • Why does Flash install Google Toolbar?

    Why does Flash install Google Toolbar? Honestly, do you have ANY idea how annoying that behaviour is? I had no option at all to not download it, I could not stop downloading it. I was taking from a "you need to install flash" button on Facebook to the download.
    Honestly things like this make me rage, installing things automatically without an option.
    Until now, I used to think that it was annoying that Apple wouldn't allow flash on some of their devices. Now Adobe pulls **** like this, I'm not surprised. To hell with Flash I say.

    This is a user-to-user forum, and you're "preaching to the choir" here. IT ISN'T going to change, and NO ONE from Adobe management ever sees or reads these pages. Employees are here from time to time but no one who makes these decisions participates in these forums, per company policy. (I used to work for Intuit, and we were strictly prohibitied from posting in their forums. A team leader I worked with was fired for it).
    Links to the FULL installers are posted literally HUNDREDS of times each week throughout these pages by myself, and at least three others I know of, who volunteer in these pages daily.

    I DON'T run Adobe and no one here does, so I won't even beging to discuss business ethics.
    The solutions have been offered, and I recommend you update NOTHING, including your OS, automatically. I don't because I don't want junk like Ask Toolbar, Yahoo Toolbar, Bing Toolbar, Bing Desktop, Norton or McAfee on any of my nine systems.

  • Why does Firefox have to make it so difficult to get answers--I am not going to be able to check the website to see what anyone might reply to my question on crashing?

    I have no way of checking to see if anyone answers this. Why does Firefox have to make it so difficult?
    What does this means: DLL C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\MOZCRT19.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.
    Suddenly all my tabs closed. Then Windows told me I had a gazillion infections. Then a tiny strip appeared saying it was Firefox and these little blocks started to fill up the little strip as if it were downloading something--there was no way to cancel this so I cut the power. Now when I try to use the Firefox icon, I get the message above.
    Am I supposed to remove the old Firefox stuff and start from scratch? I am stuck using Internet Explorer.
    I went to the Firefox website and tried to download it again, but McAffee jumped in and said there is something wrong with Firefox and I should register with them that I am downloading Firefox (I do not have McAffee). Then I got a security warning saying Firefox is not safe.
    I am completely at a loss as to what to do next, since I don't understand any of this mumbojumbo.

    Here's the story on one of your infections, namely JS:Redirector-EH[Trj]: http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/Threat/Encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Trojan%3aJS%2fRedirector.H
    The main problem with malware is that it uses the installation to proliferate by contacting hostile servers to download more of the same rogue code.
    Firefox doesn't have the option to "Run" a file. You can only "Save File" or "Cancel". If you downloaded it with IE8, then yes, you can run it, but that's not what I wanted you to do.
    What you should do now is to disable System Restore. You can open System Properties by hitting the Windows logo key and Pause/Break key together. Then click the "System Restore" tab. Then checkmark the box which says "''Turn off System Restore on all drives''". Reboot to clear its contents. System Restore unfortunately makes a backup of all executables which includes viruses so that when you reboot without deleting them first, System Restore reinstates them again.
    After you complete that step, run Avast and Malwarebytes again to make sure the system is clean.
    Then go to the Windows Update site (link on your start menu) and install the missing patches which enabled your machine to become infected in the first place.
    Once the system is clean, repeat step one to download Firefox again, but please do not run the file. If you don't see the option to "Save File", cancel the download, but it should be there. You can use this direct download link to download FF4.0.1 [http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-4.0.1&os=win&lang=en-US Download Firefox 4.0.1]
    Run the file after you download it to the desktop.

  • Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime?

    Why does my MacBook Pro make background music and video quieter when I am on FaceTime? When my girlfriend and I are trying to watch a movie on Netflix together while on FaceTime my MacBook Pro always decreases the volume of any background sound on my computer so I can barely hear it. Is there a way to fix this? Thank you!

    Have the same issue too. Apple can you please change this annoying feature. You are making long distance relationships more difficult.
    I like how Facetime was with the old iOS, where nothing was dimmed. OR at least maybe if you could give users the option to turn on or off dimming of facetime.

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Why does my Macbook Air make a single buzz/beep?

    Why does my Macbook Air make a single buzz/beep every time I open it or turn it on? It doesn't happen after again after the initial buzz. If I open it after it has been sleeping, it starts up and then there is a buzz. This has only happened since I downloaded iOS Maverick.

    Beeps on startup:
    1 beep = no RAM installed
    2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
    3 beeps = no good banks
    4 beeps = no good boot images.
    5 beeps = processor is not usable

  • Why does Flash/Flex Builder 4 Premium downgrade to Standard when I install Flash Player Debug?

    Why does Flash/Flex Builder 4 Premium downgrade to Standard when I install Flash Player Debug?
    I installed a corporate install of Flex/Flash Builder 4 Premium, and verified that it was the Premium version was installed.  The Start Page said that Flash Player was needed to display the text, so I installed Flash Player 10 Debug -- first download link from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    When I then started Flex Builder 4, the splash screen showed Premium, but as soon as the Start Page was visible, it showed "FB Adobe Flash Builder 4 Standard" --- Help | About showed Standard, and the splash screen from then on showed Standard.
    A Google search showed a work around for this, but it requires a license for Premium, which I don't have because our corporate install has it built-in:
    http://bloginblack.de/2010/05/adobe-master-collection-cs5-breaks-flash-builder-4-premium-a nd-how-to-fix-it/
    1. Anyone know how to resolve this?
    2. Can Adobe fix this?
    Thanks!

    I had similar problem. I was involved in Flash Builder prerelease program and few months later I installed Adobe CS5 Master Collection. After that I had a same situation.  Best thing was, my Flash Builder Beta was Premium version but acted like Standard, and FB from CS5 was Standard but acted like Premium. I removed CS5 and beta version of CS5. used CS5 Cleaning Fix and then reinstalled my apps.
    I was lucky that I didn't have many big projects involved in FB beta or CS5 workspaces, I heard some guys had problems with migrated workspace configurations but I don't know what was the problem.

  • Why does Flash Player keep sending me notifications to update to the version I already have?

    Why does Flash Player keep sending me notifications to update to the version I already have? The result is always an error message telling me that the version is already running. (Desktop Computer; Windows Vista OS; Firefox; Adobe Flash Version 11.8.800.94)

    I don't know; can you post a screenshot of such a notification?
    Did you update both ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and plugin (for Firefox)?

  • Why does mozilla wants to make changes to my laptop settings while I try to download firefox 3.6 ?

    Why does mozilla wants to make changes to my laptop settings while I try to download firefox

    If you install a program then elevated (Administrator) permissions are needed and Windows will ask you to confirm.
    If it happens all the time if you start a program then you need to check the Compatibility tab in the Properties of the shortcut via the right-click context menu and make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.

  • HT1338 Why can't I update my iPad iso 4.2 version? I go to setting and it does not have it like it should. Why does apple have to make things so freaking hard! Help!

    Why can't I update my iPad iso 4.2 version? I go to setting and it does not have it like it should. Why does apple have to make things so freaking hard! Help!

    If you have an original iPad 1, the latest version of iOS it can run is iOS 5. So you should be able to update no problem.
    Update iTunes to the latest version (11.0.2). Then simply plug your iPad into the computer and open iTunes. Click the iPad either in the sidebar or the top navigation bar. Then attempt to update the software. If it doesn't work, please post the exact error message.
    Note that it would be wise to first ensure you back up the iPad.

    the fan is very audible, and then winds down to almost quiet - why? how do i make the fans be quiet?

    hi, re my fans, this issue is about 1 week old and the machine is behaving normally.  However...the bottom of the machine is quite hot (but it has always been quite warm) and I do have my battery settings in preferences set to high performance (uses more memory.)  Also, I often stream video thru Firefox while working on medium/large Photoshop Docs as well as leaving ITunes or Preview open in the background.  Also, I leave my MacBook on continually...it's 3 years old...should I be concerned?  Is this issue indicitive of a battery problem or Sudden Computer Death Syndrome?
