Firefox 8.0, refuses to recognize the updated flash player

8.0 on windows. Flash has completely stopped working. Flash update does nothing, the uninstall and reinstall flash does nothing. He also tells me that she has been "disabled for my safety" because I use an 'outdated' version even if I've just updated it. How can I fix it?

There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:

  • an ActiveX version for IE only
  • a plug-in version for most of the other browsers including Firefox
  • On a Windows system, you must always update both individually.

You don't seem to have the Plugin for Firefox installed version. If you did, in the Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash (version)". If 'Shockwave Flash' is there and is disabled, click on the button "activate". NOTE: Yes, I saw that you said it has been disabled. The current version just came out a few days ago is 11.1.102.55.

    I have Firefox 8.0.1 and since the update to it, some sites, I need to go so that Firefox will not accept certificates which is accepted in the previous version. I can not get the permanent exception and must uncheck permanent

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file

    It is not usually necessary to create an exception for the certificates.

    Possible causes are that a server does not send the full (intermediate) certificate chain or self signed certificates.

    It malicious actors area out there who take the Flash Player installer legitimate and pack it with malware, or simply to accommodate a virus/malware/etc to install/update and call Flash Player or some other permutation of this.  When people perform an Internet search these sites to install Flash Player, as well as of adobe.com are returned in the search results.  The people knowingly or not, go to the non-adobe.com site a download an installer of Flash Player potentially malicious or false who infects his system or click on a notification to update Flash Player fake/malicious window (see this article for an example: https://isc.sans.edu/forums/diary/Fake+Adobe+Flash+Update+OS+X+Malware/20693/).  Many of these false installers have been stigmatized for alike to official and legitimate Flash Player installer.  If you think that you may have used a fake installer of Flash Player install Flash Player, private message me the link to the site where you downloaded the installer from.  Adobe will actively after these malicious actors to remove fake/malicious installers.

  • How install Flash Player via the command line using sudo to install without being invited for the dialog "Preferences updated Flash Player"? Is there a really quiet option, no prompt?

    Since the administration guide, I execute the following commands on a remote host to install flash player. However, the command stalls waiting for "Update Flash Player Preferences" dialog box to decide. I would like to run this command on a remote host and have to install without any warning. Are the other arguments to the "'Adobe Flash Player install Manager" another that '-install ', something that is really quiet? "


    Silent installation of Flash Player (using Installer .app bundle)

    To silently install the Flash Player 11.3 or later on Mac, follow these steps:

    1 extract the bundle to install Adobe Flash Player (install Adobe Flash Player.app) of the. DMG file.

    2 open a terminal window and change to the directory where the .app file is saved.

    For example, if the .app file is saved to the desktop of the current user, type:

    CD ~/Desktop

    3. run the installation program contained in the .app file using the following command:

    sudo. / Install Adobe Flash Player.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Flash Player install Manager.

    install

    4. type the password to continue the installation.


    Thank you.

    Hello

    You experience this behavior because you use the installer online, download and install Flash Player silently in background, but requires also the user to provide the option to update.  Setup Online is not intended for the distribution of the company.  Distribute Flash Player within your organization, you will need Flash Player (usually free) licenses for distribution.  Apply for a license, go to Adobe Flash Player Distribution. Adobe and complete and submit the form.  After application, you will receive an email with a link to download installers for the distribution of the company.  This includes installers .app both .pkg you can use.  None of these prompts to update the options during installation in silent mode.

    I apologize for not noticing this before, however, I assume that you did not use the installer online since you were distributing Flash Player within your organization.

    Hello

    Thanks for the update.  I am happy that you were able to get installed it.  Always curious to know why the EXE file does not download.  Have you checked your security settings, or maybe anti-anti-virus/firewall settings?

  • Test the movie Flash Player not working not not in Firefox

    Flash demos at the following link do not work for me on Firefox, but work fine in Chrome and Safari: Adobe - Flash Player

    I also got an error on Tumblr that Flash has not been installed. I tried in safe mode, when 33.02 was later that it is an old problem, & also tested with the latest version 34.0.5.

    This screenshot shows what I see on the page of the Adobe Flash - just this dark, red color fill test no animation: http://oi61.tinypic.com/2r5ten6.jpg

    (Same exact image/animation with Flash 16.0.0.235)

    Chrome/Safari, I see this in an animation: http://oi62.tinypic.com/2qdsm13.jpg

    I tried to uninstall Flash using these instructions, rebooted, reinstalled and no change:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash-Player/KB/uninstall-Flash-Player-Mac-OS.html

    Safari and Firefox share the same Flash Player, so something is happening with Firefox.  Are you running any plugins of ad-blocking or anti-suivis?

    You could try Firefox > help > restart with disabled modules.

    If this does not work, you might just try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox.

  • How do I update Flash Player ActiveX & Plugin to an internal server at the same time?


    At work, we use both, Flash Player ActiveX and plugin, because of the use of different browsers. We have implemented a background update of our internal server.

    Updating via 'FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe', an extension of the ActiveX is updated and the Plugin is not.

    But if I do it in this order: update install ActiveX → update → install the update, the two Extensions → Plugin.

    Here is the mms.cfg:

    AutoUpdateDisable = 0

    SilentAutoUpdateEnable = 1

    SilentAutoUpdateServerDomain = [our server]

    SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging = 1

    Is it possible to update the two Extensions to an internal server at the same time?

    Hi Jak,

    The file currentmajor.xml is a relatively new, 2 versions there are, I think, but it seems to be missing in the file fp_background_update.cab of the release last month. The FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe for the 14.0.0.176 version is looking for this file, and not finding it, which explains why the Plugin is not updatable. Flash Player 15.0.0.152, we published yesterday and I confirmed that the file currentmajor.xml is in the new fp_background_update.cab package.  You can download the new package of the Adobe Flash Player Distribution fp_background_update.cab | Adobe page.  Once you deploy the new package on your server, the currentmajor.xml file must be in the directory of /sau, at the same level as 11, /14/ and 15 (new release of yesterday), and the Plugin should be updated after the ActiveX updates for the new version.
