Windows 8 freezes while I try to watch online Flash content and running Audition CS6

I recently bought a online introduction course to Auditon CS6 on Vimeo.com
While I have a setup where I put the lecture on one screen and the program on the other I like to follow tutorials and learn how to use software.
However this proves to be impossible for me in Audition, because for some reason my computer gets completely unresponsive after a little while of watching the lectures with Audition running.
It never happens when Audition hasn't been launched, and I'm kind of suspecting a driver conflict, but I don't have a fancy audio card in my computer, (just built in Realtek,) and find it a bit
odd that it wouldn't be supported as it is some of the most common audio setups around. As far as I know the system runs stable with Audition running and no Flash content started as well.
This has happened for the last couple of months and I've updated Flash and drivers as they roll out. Audition CS6 is downloaded with the Creative Cloud application Manager.
Here is some general info on my computer:
OS: Windows 8 Pro 64 bit.
Motherboard: eVGA x58 Classified (Tried with stock BIOS and also updated to new BIOS)
Audio Card: Realtek (on motherboard)
Graphics: Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 Ti
The system storage device is a SSD (Firmware recently updated due to BSODs apearing, and seems to be resolved.)
I do believe that this might not be a Audition issue, but rather a issue with Flash. However Audition + Flash reproduces this problem faster than anything else I can remember this happening while
using other 3rd party software while playing Flash. (Not exactly the type of software.) I have a suspicion that it is something that occurs if Flash and other programs is paging/wiring/reading the SSD...
I can't remember this happening with Photoshop or other Adobe software, and so I'm also curious to how different Audition runs "under the hood" so to speak. What is it constantly checking
that could lead to a hardware conflict.

A month ago I uninstalled AVG Internet security from my computer making it a lot less potent to BSODs in general, (can't reacall having any.) So today I thought I'd try to learn some more Audition. I could Sit with it for a good while just playing around with recordings and settings and my system didn't react weirdly at all. So the next step was of course to try and load some of the Udemy lectures I had waiting.
As the video was buffering I turned away from the computer for a while, but when I came back it had completely froze up again... I don't think I've ever had a BSOD in this context either, instead of going into BSOD the computer just stops responding completely.
(I'm using the latest version of Flash, tried with both Firefox and Chrome.)
I'm thinking this is a very niche bug and I can't seem to se that it can be anything but a conflict with Flash. Weither it's a memory leek or what ever it is.
I can use Audition fine on my computer it seems, as long as I never start a browser in risk of loading a Flash application, (which would be fine if I was avid, but I need some lectures to get started.)
Nothing really seems to be overloaded (RAM/CPU) before the freeze ocurs either.
I don't really know where or how to adress this to the Flash Player forum/community, (or if there is one.)
Thanks.

Why does a movie/preview freeze when I try to watch it on my itouch?

Why does my itouch freeze when I try to watch a movie/preview from itunes? I tried to watch the preview. I don't want to purchase a movie if that is what is going to happen. The signal on the itouch has full strength. It works when I watch a music video that I have purchased from Itunes. I also have Belkin G-801.11 which is what is required according to the itouch instructions. I have only had the itouch three days and I returned one because of the same thing.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Firefox crashes or freezes unexpected while watching/using flash contents

Firefox crashes or freezes unexpected while watching/using flash contents. Particularly, when I need any flash content. It freezes up so that the only option will be to force quit the firefox.

I've noticed the crashing increasing with the newer versions. The worst thing is when I'm writing a long email and then go to a page with flash and ff locks up and then crashes. I use IE now for most flash content or mission critical emailing but IE's interface is poorly laid out so I don't like it. I've tried FF with the plugin container and without it and it crashes either way (more often without the container). I use adblock and firebug. I wonder if ppl experiencing this prob are using those plugins too.

Why does it stop every few seconds for "buffering" when I try to watch the Daily Show and the Colbert Report?!

The past couple of weeks whenever I try to watch the Daily Show and the Colbert Report the screen freezes up every 2 or 3 seconds and the message "buffering" comes on. VERY FRUSTRATING!!!

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

Firefox freezes many times when I'm playing Flash Contents (Youtube)

Hello. I have upgraded to Firefox 2.6.8 a while ago. The problem occurred recently. Whenever I play Flash Content usually on Youtube, Firefox freezes for many times and it makes my computer runs slower. It's not normal because I have a fast computer

YouTube videos use the Flash plugin. You can test your Flash plugin and see what version is installed by going to [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Adobe's Flash Player test page]. To update Flash to the latest version, see [[Managing the Flash plugin]].
Starting in Firefox 3.6.4, Flash is loaded in a separate plugin-container process. For the background, see the articles [[What is plugin-container]] and [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins Plugin-container and out-of-process plugins (MozillaZine KB)].
If Firefox hangs when playing Flash videos at YouTube, it could be a video driver issue, Try turning off hardware acceleration in your [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player display settings] (visit any page that uses Flash, such as [http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Adobe's test page], then right-click the Flash animation, select Settings, and uncheck "Enable hardware acceleration" on the Display panel). ...More information here:

Watching online video's and snow leopard

i use to watch online videos like smallville and son's of anarchy. but ever since i installed the new snow leopard. i cant watch any tv show online (ie- fx, cw channels). i can still watch youtube. i searched the first 38 forum pages to see if anyone else is having this same problem.

I seem to have the same issue that Viking is having. This issue is really frustating the **** out of me. I've got two identical iMac's that had the hard drives wiped clean. Installed a fresh copy of SL, did all the Apple updates so I'm at SL 10.6.1. Installed Flip4Mac 2.3.0.14, Perian 1.1.4, QT7 and I still can't get any streaming video/audio (ASX, ASF, WMV, etc) to play through either Safari or Firefox. All it does is show a blank window where the video should be or the asx page just sits there loading.
I've read through hundreds of posts about this issue and can't find a solution, everything just says to install flip4mac and it should work. I've downloaded WMV, MPG, AVI files to the desktop and they play just fine in VLC player. All the QT trailers on Apple's site play just fine in the browser as well. Flash sites like youtube work just fine too. These are not Realmedia sites. I've tried it with only Flip4Mac installed without anything else and have the same problem. No firewalls are on either. All the Flip plugins seem to be installed correctly in the Safari plugins list.
Can anyone please give me some suggestions to try? I'm a recent Mac convert from the PC and can't believe that it would be this difficult to get something working that always worked on the PC.
Thx

My mac keeps asking for a password when I try to install adobe flash player. Even with the hint I'm not getting it and also tried uninstall and the same thing occurred.

It's referring to the MAC password that you have setup.
A software prompts for a password only when there are restrictions set on the user account for unauthorised access to system files and folders.

Screen freezes when I try to watch downloaded movie

I downloaded a rented movie and when I go to watch it the screen freezes. No controls come up or anything. No part of the page responds- not the minimize, close out, etc functionality is gone.
Really the problem started when I downloaded a newer version of ITunes. I downloaded another movie that I couldn't watch since the sound wouldn't work. I was able to watch other DVDs in my laptop, so the problem is with Itunes only. Since that time, i wanted to see if I couldn't correct the problem by downloading Itunes again and then I downloaded Quicktime again- based on a recommendation I saw somewhere on the Apple support site. I also downloaded a TV show to test out my changes. Eventually after a while the show worked and actually still works, but this movie won't even play. This is the worst problem I've had so far.

yall are ******* bull **** apple. "post on our site and we will help you." when u gunna help me... when my ******* warrenty expires?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

My iTunes on Windows XP freezes when I try to change airplay device.

I can successfully stream from iTunes (on a Windows XP Pro PC) via Airplay without any difficulties. However, at times when I change airplay devices (I think generally when I disconnect from them), my iTunes crashes. Has anyone else had that problem. If you have a successful fix, I'd appreciate it.

Hello decramer,
I recommend this article named iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1421.

Recently when I try to watch my purchased movies and tv shows on my apple tv I can't.

I select the episode I would like to watch, I press play, it says it is "loading" and then it goes back to episode summery. This has been going on for days. All the shows under my husband's apple id work just fine. I have tried logging off, logging back in, reset, master reset...nothing works.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Did you try restarting the router.
Are you trying to watch them from the internet or a library on a computer.

IMovie freezes while creating thumbnails from Canon FS31 flash recorder

Hi,
Borrowed at Canon FS31 from work. Attempting to import video to iMovie '08. The application hangs while generating thumbnails during the "camera detected" process, so it doesn't even get to the import screen.
I tried force quitting iMovie and reopening- same problem.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

If that fixed it, I would recommend that you reformat the card using the camera menu. Then see if it will work directly from the card. It should also work directly from the camera, but the camera has to be plugged in to the wall. With a card reader, you don't have to worry about plugging in the camera to AC power.
