Firefox 13.0.1, Flash 11.3.300.262, no video for some sites

Once firefox and flash set to upgrade to the latest versions, I found that I have no video for some sites in flash. YouTube works great but aren't sites like metacafe.com .

I tried to roll back to firefox 13.0.0. I tried aso back flash 11.2 and 10.3 without result. I also tried to disable protected mode for flash, still no video. I did a complete reinstall of firefox (including deleting my profile data) and flash, but it still doesn't work.

The only time where I get video is when I restart firefox in safe mode. However, when I reboot in normal mode with all the addons disabled I get no video. I have not install realplayer.

Anyone got any ideas as to what I could try that I have not already?

Try to "disable hardware acceleration" in the Flash Player.

  • Since firefox has blocked Adobe flash player how can I veiw videos online?

    My computer and the operating system are archaic - xp - and a very old computer, but flash player ran in the past. Firefox blocks any attempt to update adobe flash player citing vulnerability. And yet, they don't give NO option to watch videos on your tube or any other site. What can I do? I click on the box always allow, but Flash Player is still blocked.

    On Windows XP, you can consider using the Extended Support Release - Flash Player 13.0.0.305. New versions of Flash offer features that Windows XP cannot use - features only available in Vista and more recent operating system of Windows.

  • Adobe Flash 11.3.300.262 crash

    I tried 3 times to install the last update and its always stuck with Firefox 13.0.1. I had to go back to the 10.3 in Adobe. Does anyone know if there are several planned updates to fix this or something else I can do? Very frustrating. When I got the update works, it just slowed down and nothing was not working right. So far no problems with the Adobe 10.3.

    Not need to reset Firefox Flash 10.3 works. For more information about the problem with the last updated Flash and other workarounds, see:

    * Flash Player 11.3.300.262 does not work with Firefox. I think I found the problem.*

    Millions of people got off work & turned on there computers recently to discover that Firefox isn't playing videos or flash content. Like me, millions of people are randomly searching the Internet in an attempt futile and frustrating response. Unfortunately, many of these people will simply stop using firefox & consider a browser glitch, unreliable.

    This happened to me a few days ago. I started my computer and got a pop-up from Adobe saying that I need to update my flash 11.3.300.262 drive. I always thought that Adobe as being a reliable software company, so I clicked on it with confidence that things will take care even more fluid. To my horror, I have relalized that just after the update, my main browser, firefox has been destroyed. Then I went on the frustrating process of uninstalling, reinstalling, running virus scan, search the Internet like a lost child. I thought, "this is why I hate the update of things, because the updates always seem to change things you don't want to change, and there always seems to be a problem with updates." I generally update software month after release, because microsoft & all other software vendors always seem to not test it stuff properly before releasing. We must look a glitchy computer until the next update fixes it. Well, that is my rant. Now, let me discuss the problem I found.

    Problem:

    What I did, go to my menu firefox extensions, I disabled the 11.3.300.262 & I have reactivated the previous flash player. After that, everything worked perfectly again. Then one today (a week later), I turned on my computer and my firefox wasn't playing videos or flash content again. I went into my menu parts of firefox again, and I discovered that my old flash drive has been removed & this 11.3.300.262 new glitch had been activated. Why adobe feel the need of in my computer & automatically delete and update my flash drive. Now, it does not work. It IS REALLY FRUSTRATING!

    The question that I discovered:

    "RealPlayer" is the most popular video show & it's installed on millions of computers. For some strange reason Firefox doesn't want its users to use Real Player. Specifically the RealPlayer Record Plugin 15.0.2. I also discovered that my Plugin 15.0.2 Record of the browser has been disabled automatically when the Adobe 11.3.300.262 is automatically updated too.

    -Maybe this could be because of some conspiracy of copyright law to stop people from downloading videos from the web.

    -Maybe firefox wants people to use it download add-on instead of RealPlayer downloader.

    I don't know what ther reason. But what I know is no one will remove it RealPlayer to computer there is just to use FireFox. We can just use Chrome or Internet explorer. I took advice of people with disabilities the Extention of RealPlayer, FireFox and Adobe. I also went in my RealPlayer preferences options, but there is no option to disable the download of FireFox for registration. BECAUSE I have ALREADY DISABLED THE add-on menu FireFoxes.

    Solution:

    Step 1: Adobe needs to update all computers with the previous flash player. In this way we can choose to activate the previous flash player in our FireFox. or wait for a new update fixes the problem with firefox.

    Step 2: Adobe & FireFox need to get together and go back to the drawing board. They need create an update that actually works on computers with of Real Player installed on them. I don't like that the company made the update. All I care about is if it works. Thank you.

    Oh yes, Im market FireFox 13.0.1, Windows 7, computer HP, Real Player is up-to-date.

  • Firefox 8, will not save the username on some sites, is there I can to add a settings file manually?

    For most sites, FF8 records my login information. For some sites, it will not save my username. One site in particular, he used to be saved (I think that I added it to a settings file in an earlier version), but I deleted this user name for connection, and now I can't seem to save my user name.

    Is there a file somewhere that can be changed so that the username appears?

    Thank you

    The Web site may use autocomplete = off to prevent Firefox to record the name and the password.

  • Flash Player 11.3.300.262 is not working properly

    Operating system: Win7 64 bit

    Browser: Mozilla Firefox 13.0.1

    Flash Player: 1.3.300.262

    So, I updated the version of Flash Player days ago and immediately noticed a few problems. I have re-installed many times now some problems have disappeared, but there is still one. During the game the Sims 3 it crashes often say that the Flash drive is missing, even though I just installed (again). I have no problems more use it with Mozilla Firefox, it's the only one left.

    Some older games REQUIRE the flash file to be precisely named "flash.ocx" - which is what has been used many years ago.   Today, Flash uses a name more long, based on the version of the file.

    For your windows 7, 64-bit system, I think that the file desired flash needs to be located in the

    C:\WINDOWS\systemWoW64\Macromed\Flash

    subdirectory... see if you can find a file named it (something like) Flash32_11_3_300_257.ocx.

    If so, right-click on the file, select COPY.   Move your cursor to any empty space on your desktop, right click and select PASTE.   Right-click on the desktop file that you just created and simply rename "flash.ocx" [CONFIRM the file - rename, if requested].  Finally, 'drag' the file renamed from your desktop, in the folder mentioned above Flash [CONFIRM file-movement of the file in read-only, if requested].

    Point out you will now have two .ocx files related to Flash in this subdirectory - one with the original name (long), and the copy that you created with the shorter name.   If all goes well, who's going to make the case and allow your game to work.

    Note: If this solve your SIMS problem, you need to repeat the process every time that you run the uninstall program Flash, upgrade to a newer version.

  • Win 7 / FF 13 - Flash 11.3.300.257 does not work

    OS: Win 7 64 bit

    Browser: Firefox 13

    Flash Player: 11.3.300.257

    Since the update to the version of Flash Player above, the flash doesn't work anymore, which means quite simply, anything related to flash works if you use Firefox. Flash still works with Chrome and IE 9.

    Flash 11.3.300.257 is also working with Win XP / Firefox 13.

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled twice, but it did not help. As far as I can see there are other people having trouble with the latest version of Flash in Firefox.

    Is it possible to get the previous version of Flash Player running with Win 7 64 bit / Firefox 13? Would be great because I guess it will take some time until this problem is resolved.

    The following procedure should work for you:

    Launch RealPlayer

    Click on the RealPlayer icon in the upper left of the window and choose Preferences.

    Download & recording, choose the left panel

    Uncheck the box "Enable Web download & recording for these browsers installed"

    Click OK and close RealPlayer

  • How to eliminate the crashes of Firefox because of Adobe Flash?

    I spent the best part of Saturday last through suggestions of regulatory support, due to accidents in Firefox. Accidents are caused by Adobe Flash. I ran Firefox in Mode safe, I refreshed it and other aid. I have endured this problem for several months.

    Adobe released an update yesterday to solve critical problems, he admitted were in the 18.0.0.203 version. You can get 18.0.0.209 on this page:

    No one can promise that this kind of block will never happen. If that happens, if you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature a plugin, here's what to expect:

    When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification icon in the address bar and usually (but not always) one of the following values: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You can trust the site for the time being or permanently.

    But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification! It will just sit there in case you later want.
