Why does Flash plugin keep failing?

I want to know why the Flash plugin is always crashing in Safari?

Might not just be Flash that's causing Safari to crash.
Post a crash report.
If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash  information.
Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.

  • 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 flash player keep sending update requests when I have already installed latest version?

    Flash player keeps sending update requests and when I try to install it tells me I need to close internet explorer when it isn't open. How do I make it stop?

    Right click ANY flash content and choose "Global Settings" Under Advanced, you can check the version and set updating preferences.

  • Why does Flash Player keep instisting I install?

    Even after I've installed multiple times -- deleting my "old" version first, and reinstalling.
    I've even checked my Win32 folder, and indeed Adobe Flash is installed!
    But I keep getting messaged to "install the latest version of Flash" -- or suffer the consequences!
    There is now an ugly pop-up that accompanies this advice.
    What is the deal?
    In browsing around this Forum, I see multiple people  have had this issue (with no completely satisfactory solution offered. However, one line of advice did suggest checking for the latest/greatest version of Javascript for a proper installation of Flash, so I'll try that.)
    It doesn't seem unreasonable to expect that Adobe engineers are sophisticated enough to allo for a specific instructions as to WHAT the problem is, for each download. Seems most Microsoft issues have this sort of advice available, either through the company's knowledge base (usually by error #) or intelligent pop-ups.

    Hi Pat,
    Thanks for your ongoing assistance! I'm not sure of the Firefox plugin to which you're referring. Can you please be more specific?
    I did try to find the reference to JS, and came up with this (I don't think it's exactly what I found the first time around, but seems close enough. http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html  (the JS reference is second down).
    My JS has been re-enabled, as I mentioned; I did that when I updated. (There WAS indeed some older security issue with JS that made its way through browserville. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/373818/whats-with-those-do-not-use-javascript-people. I didn't follow the specifics but there was a while where I had it disabled).
    I'm noticing on the helpx link, above, that it also references something about ActiveX. I actually have no idea what ActiveX is or does, but I do know that when I initially switched to Firefox (from IE) it said there was an ActiveX conflict, and disabled some functions of ActiveX. I'm not sure if that was since resolved and the ActiveX re-enabled. I have done several MS auto-updates since then, and suspect it may have been re-enabled automatically.
    Do you think ActiveX could have something to do with my problem?
    I just remembered an rather intrusive message I keep getting while browsing Facebook with Firefox, so I logged on using IE8 and did NOT get the message. So my issue does seem specific to Firefox. (attaching a pic with the error message)

    Hi Tbone72002, let me make a guess you are using your facetime while in a school, college or community network which is having some of the ports disabled, which are required to be enabled. The ports which are required to be enabled for the facetime and imesseges are listed here : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4245 .

    1. Go to 'Preferences'
    2. Hit '+' button to add  new network.
    3. Choose the 'VPN' option.
    4. Now under VPN options, select PPTP, give it a name and hit 'Create'.
    5. Enter the folowing details:
    Configuration : Default
    Server Address: us.websitevpn.com
    Account Name: websitevpn.com
    Encryption: Automatic (128 bit or 40 bit)
    Click on connec
    If you are asked for a password, enter "freevpn".
    6. Open the first URL and Hit "I Agree" and then configure the facetime and enjoy.
    For the next time, you are required only to click connect on vpn option and then agree to the first URL. And enjoy.
    P.S.  1.You can also access the websites, blocked by your DNS.

  • Why does my iPod keep on crashing when I run high memory apps?

    Why does my iPod keep on crashing when I run high memory apps? I have a 32 gb 4th gen iPod Touch with only 11gb used, and I currently run 6.1.5 Everytime I run a high memory app, without fail it crashes. These apps include but are not limited to instagram, infinity blade, subway surfer, gmail, clear vision 3, dropbox, and even Safari has crashed on multiple occasions. I tried resetting the settings and that seemed to work for about a day but now I'm back at square one.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0

    The Adobe Flash plugin keeps crashing on Firefox 12.0, and my Plugin Check link in Addons Manager directs to https://www.mozilla.com/en/404 .
    Is this a hack attempt? Is Firefox 3.6 safer than the release channel?

    Thankss, but it sounds a bit complicated for me. Maybe I can just reinstall FF?
    ~And would switching back to FF 3.6 (or whatever the latest Official release is), rather than being on the new Release Channel be safer than FF 12?

  • 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)
