40 Firefox does not Flash Shockwave player to work longer?

Just upgraded to 40 of Firefox, it I cannot display any Shockwave Flash based sites or plugins, anywhere on the net.

I've installed Shockwave player. All other browsers work fine.

41 seems to work very well. 39 works fine as well.

Do not confuse the Shockwave for Director plugin and the Shockwave Flash plugin, both are different plugins.

  • After I connect usb cable thro one ipod, firefox does not load, but other browsers work fine. ?

    Yes, you must complete the process.

  • Flash for firefox does not work

    I checked my computer and it says that flash works but when I go to play games I can't because msg says I need Flash. I've always been able to play the same games before now I can't. all parameters have remained the same, why is today different?

    When you are on the site where the game does not load, do you see a notification icon in the address bar?

    Notification plugin icon looks like a small Lego block, usually dark gray. If you click on it, it should tell you if the Flash is allowed for the page or if you need to.

    If the icon does not appear, Firefox does not recognize the code in the page. If it appears, and Flash is allowed, then the page may have a difficult time in commissioning.

    There is a problem with some Flash games does not not in Firefox 40. To see if the game you are playing is affected by this issue (asynchronous loading), you can try this modification of the parameters:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press enter/return. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the IPC and pause while the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference dom.ipc.plugins.asyncInit to change its value from true to false

    I don't know which begins to take effect immediately, or if you leave Firefox and start it again.

    Return to the page with the game, then reload the page (you can click on the circular arrow in the address bar) to see if it will work now.

    A little luck?

  • Satellite T130 - 10G: Firefox does not read any video or flash content more

    My Firefox does not read any video or flash content more. And in watching the news of repair troubleshooting/malfunction in Firefox under graphics, he said that "Direct2D activated" and 'WebGL Renderer' have been blocked because of the version of the graphics driver.

    I downloaded a new version on the Toshiba site, but an update of the driver can not find the new version.
    I had briefly solved the problem by installing the new driver from the file but it is not recognized in Device Manager.

    Automatic update through Windows just tells me that the driver is up-to-date.
    I have the Satellite T130 - 10G.

    Would be great if someone could help.

    Thank you!

    Hmmmm... as you know Toshiba doesn't support third party software so I think that your question has nothing to do with Toshiba directly.

    You find the same content with other browsers?

  • Firefox does not connect to any Web site, but other browsers will.

    When I get something in the URL- google.com, localhost, http://127.0.0.1/ one bar the IP address, there is a fraction of a second flash, then the bar becomes empty and nothing has changed. It seems that Firefox is not even try to connect to the internet.

    Yesterday, everything was fine when I was running FF on Windows 7. After the upgrade to Windows Pro 8, Firefox has failed. I've updated for Windows 8.1, hoping for the best, but it's the same problem.

    I've walked by the firewall program, several times (the only race is the built-in Windows Firewall). Finally, I uninstalled Firefox, including all my settings, custom and reinstalled from scratch, twice. And even this version pure and clean Firefox does not connect to the internet.

    I am a computer web developer and would be happy to look at the log files or run a tool (Fiddler?) to see what happens at a low level, if I only knew where to look.

    john99, thanks for the links. I went through all (again), one by one. The last link kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic showed me what helped. I've renamed "firefox.exe" to "firefox1.exe" and was able to use firefox.

    It made me suspect the firewall or malicious software. I ran a Malwarebytes full scan, zero problems detected. I have pored on the entries of windows firewall, the "Windows Firewall with advanced security" view and also the simple control panel view. The only mention of Firefox is that I continue to add and remove to allow firefox through.

    Here I knew what was going on, but for now, I can at least use firefox. How frustrating!

  • Firefox does not start (not safe mode), but uses the CPU

    I have the latest Firefox 25.0 (and the last Flash 11.9.900.117) on Windows 7 and the following behavior is reproducible. It started not too long ago.

    At first when I launch Firefox, nothing appears no matter how often, I restart. I see in the list of the process firefox.exe to 25% of the CPU, 2 x FlashPlayerPlugin_11_9_900_117.exe (CPU 0%) and plugincontainer.exe. No matter how many times I killed all of them, would not restart Firefox.

    The following also not help in this situation:

    • Starting in normal safe mode: Firefox opens a window but immediately freezes and does not respond. The process list shows the same process even if I find the unexpected FlashPlayer.
    • Disable plugincontainer: same results (just without plugincontainer.exe)
    • Uninstall Flash: Same results (just without FlashPlayerPlugin)

    The following can start Firefox only once:

    • Starting in SafeMode but select "Reset Firefox": Firefox does not start right away, however. Nothing happens, and you have to kill the process. However the very next time you launch Firefox in the normal way, it works fine (but it shows FlashPlayerPlugin.exe in the list of unopened Windows process despite the tab). Unfortunately, after closing Firefox the process (Firefox, FlashPlayerPlugin) are not deleted. I kill and the problem with Firefox do not leave reappears.

    In case you use "clear history of Firefox closing:

    • do not delete Cookies

    Note that compensation "Preferences of Site" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, windows pop up, installation of software and passwords.

    Use "Firefox > output" (Windows: Firefox/file > quit;) Mac: Firefox > quit Firefox. Linux: Firefox/file > exit) to close Firefox if you are currently doing by clicking on the X close in the title bar of Firefox.

    Create a new profile manually (and not via the reset) as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting on the problem.

  • Why firefox does not allow users to configure to play other types of media in the browser via its plugins?

    Firefox has a plugin that allows you to play. Stream AVI files in the browser.
    There are of course more types of file stream only. AVI that vlc media player (a very popular program) can play.
    Why doesn't firefox allow these types of streams, that is to say - FLV to play using the browser firefox via the plugin?
    Firefox does not even allow users to manually set this behavior.
    I think it's ridiculous to have the potential to be a great another browser, but not yet the chance to compete because of this inconceivable gap.

  • Firefox keeps renewing the pages by itself. The message is "Firefox does not.

    When I go to a page, it opens up nicely, but when I try to scroll, click on something, etc. Firefox renews itself without doing me anything. There is a message that says "Firefox does not" while trying to type this it happened 2 times.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of your modules is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).

  • Reader of PDF in Firefox does not work, what should I do?

    Firefox does not open PDF files. The tab remains empty and the PDF file does not open. He continues to display a dialog box saying 'Open' and 'Save', but it never opens.

    No, not open with Firefox, you must select the "Preview in Firefox" on the Options page. If Firefox does not follow that the server cannot send ' application/pdf' as content type. A test, you want to try this link:

  • Firefox does not load with a certain wifi

    So I have this problem, Firefox does not load when I connect with a wifi but when I change my connection to different wifi, that's going to walk again.
    even if the first wifi works fine on my computer because I can connect to the internet with another browser.

    Many programs can "phone home" for the updates and such.
    These work yet?

    Type of topic: preferences #advanced< enter > in the address bar.

    Under Advanced, select network.
    Search for configure how Firefox connects and then press the settings button.
    If you use a proxy server, make sure that these settings are correct. If there is no
    proxy, first use No. Proxy. If there is a problem, then try Proxy system.

    Some problems occurs when your Internet security program has been implemented.
    trust the previous version of Firefox, but not more acknowledges your
    update as being approved. Now how do I solve the problem: to allow
    Firefox to connect to the Internet

    • Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (for example, you are using the latest version).
    • Delete Firefox to list your program of programs approved or recognized. For detailed instructions, see
