Flash playback problems since upgrading to Firefox 40

I asked yesterday and received no response, so I'm posting again. Here a lot to hear some thoughts on what it is and how I could fix is, so I can update to the latest edition of Firefox. Anyone? Thank you.

I was invited to move to Firefox 40 today, and as soon as I did, I started to have problems with video playback on YouTube and various other sites. The video has been slow, the sound is distorted. I have the latest version of Flash installed. Everything worked perfectly before the upgrade.

Just to see, I went down to Firefox 39.0.3 and playback problems disappeared. So needless to say, I will not be upgrading anytime soon. Is this likely a Firefox problem, a problem of Flash, a problem with my computer? I am running Windows XP. Any help, thoughts would be appreciated.

For future use, if you want to "bump" your message, you can answer yourself, you need not to make a new post.

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 4 I lost my favorites and will not restore from my profile, also I often can't navigate to a page.

    Since the upgrade to Firefox 4: 1), I lost my favorites. (((2) if I go into my profile, there is no backups since 21 March (when I upgraded) and if I try to restore my favorites from backups in my profile, nothing happens (although if I look the .json file in textedit, they are clearly there) 3) when I start typing an address, Firefox gives me is more a suggestion of my story 4) (and possibly without) if I browse a site , via a link, I often can't navigate back (the grey towers left arrow). In other words, Firefox loses the story.

  • Since upgrading to firefox 26, I get a lot of pop-up windows

    Good so I was using Firefox as my main browser for years. I have little to NO problems with it, but lately the problem of the shock wave. But this isn't a big deal. My problem is with Firefox 26, I was informed of an update for it this morning and I've upgraded to Firefox 26. Now, whenever I use this browser I get ads everywhere in my screen and pop up windows. I uninstalled and used IE for a little while with no advertising cropping up. I went back on the firefox site and updated to date again. After about 10 minutes the ads started popping up. If I don't have a fix for this I'll be forced reluctantly to uninstall Firefox permanently. I am a real estate professional and when I'm in my local MLS a few key words like DATE are highlighted and if I mouse over it says "meet single girls in $$$" with a photo.

    Hello Jwg1978, you have various present malicious addons. Please, try the following steps:

    1. Reset firefox (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
    2. then go to firefox > addons > extensions and where there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
    3. Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes and adwcleaner to ensure that adware is not present in other parts of your system as well.

  • Since upgrading to Firefox, weird letters appear instead of the correct text on some pages.

    Since I upgraded my Firefox browser, some pages are display strange text instead of the correct text.

    A a page where the text is supposed to be 'Dog of the Day', it appears as pg Eph uif Ebz. In Internet Explorer, it appears fine.

    Any idea what I can do to fix this?

    Do you mean small boxes with the hex code?

    Try to set the Boolean gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading false pref on the topic: config page.

    To open the topic: config page, type Subject: config in the address bar (address) and press the 'Enter' key, as you type the url of a Web site to open a Web site.

  • I'm not reset firefox just to fix the orange button. Bar menu disabled still no button orange. Have had this problem since upgrade to 20.0

    Firefox orange button was missing I upgraded to 20.0. I have installed since the next update as well, still no solution on the orange button. Research suggests to disable the menu bar (which is not a solution for me) I tried this, still no button orange. Another recent development is with the all in one sidebar... The only icons showing are "Display you favorite" and Google Lite. The buttons are still there, just no identifying information; No icon, no text.
    I does not reset firefox, to do this, he would need more time I can give. I would switch to Google Chrome, if that's really my only option. I use Firefox 2 years, switching back would be more harmful.
    Thank you for all your comments.

    Hi all
    First of all, thanks for the replies and suggestions. Realize that my original investigation has been awhile ago... but just after a few things...
    What finally restored the orange firefox button has been deactivate the All In One sidebar.
    That's all.

  • Printing problems since upgrading to El Capitan

    Two weeks ago, that I've upgraded to El Capitan. Since then I was able to print from Adobe Acrobat or Microsoft Office programs. I use my Macbook for business purposes, and there is downtime with my work on this issue. This has nothing to do with printer drivers that I can't print to PDF either.

    I've used nothing helps Apple telephone support. I went to an Apple genius bar and they could not understand either. They have wiped my phone, and then I went home and restored the time upward from the standby machine. The problem was still there. So I uninstalled Microsoft office (last resort recommended by technician at the genius bar) and reinstalled. The problem is still there, and worse yet the Outlook is freezing. I rang a repairer of random computer company this morning specializing in Macs. They said they couldn't help me because they would only do what I've done. My Macbook Pro is just a few years, and now I'm looking down the barrel of the purchase of a new laptop - all because I upgraded to El Capitan!

  • ScanDisk USB Flash Drive problem after upgrade to El Capitan

    After the upgrade to El Capitan, I can't access the vault secure on my USB Cruzer facet flash drive. I have Plug and display files as usual but when I try to open the safe, I get the message ' Scan Disk Secure Access V 2.0 requires San Disk USB Flash Drive. Please insert one. »

    The Flash Player has worked fine before the upgrade to El Capitan and I can still use the files outside of the secure vault but, basically, I cannot now access the secure vault. I'd appreciate any thoughts on how this can be resolved. I only am not an expert so please, keep it pretty simple.

    Sounds like a problem of compatibility with the Secure Access software and the OS X El Capitan of SanDisk.  Try download and install the latest version of Secure Access of SanDisk.

    It seems also be other users having the same problem, you may get better assistance with this through SanDisk.  Someone else said that upgrading to the latest version of Secure Access has solved the problem.

  • Problem since upgrade to 6.0.6 Indesign Booklet

    Hello

    I have a big problem with the printing of booklet since the upgrade of my Indesign CS4 (at 6.0.6).

    I can't print a landscape A4 A5 booklet.

    I tried to change "defined by the printer" who has worked with the last problem

    I put in the print page Ind and the iMac to print the page in landscape

    I tried to export to Acrobat, but the problem persists regardless of what looks like the preview of Acrobat.

    So no matter what I do the spread on an A4 Portrait with a page and half of page two.

    If I reduce the Page A5 landscape layout that I get the impression with the correct layout, but of course it is too small it is tucked up in a corner of the page.

    I can copy the Indesign text into Nisus Pro (Text Edit) and not using expensive imposter print my booklets

    But it's crazy how I defeated the purpose of the (expensive) high-level Adobe products and I lose the Picts

    Any advice would be appreciated

  • Problems since upgrade to El Capitan

    Hello

    I bought an iPhone 6s and was on my MacBook Pro (2.53 GHz Intel Core i5 memory 8 GB) happy on OSX 10.7.5 but iTunes is not sync with iPhone 6s (Thx Apple!).

    So I had to upgrade and did on 10.11.5.

    Since then, whenever I restart my computer, it loses my iCloud ID, and I have to reset it as the first time. The dock must be reset as well. All the files on the desktop are in the position as I did nothing (I put a file to the trash and he exactly reappeared on the office where he was).

    It turns me crazy...

    Any help please?

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 34 no site load properly

    All sites are loading in a list.

    No idea where the "Firefox Security Component 1.0" extension "iseekdeal" from? You can try disabling or deleting that one if Firefox works normally in Safe Mode.

    More generally, in case of bad Add-ons, I suggest starting here:

    (1) open the Control Panel, uninstall a program. After the loading of the list, click on the column heading "installed on" to group infections, I mean additions by date. This can help the undisclosed items bundle smoker who snuck out with some software, you have agreed to install. Out as much garbage as possible here.

    (2) open Firefox page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Set essential and unrecognized plugins 'never enable '.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, in case of doubt, disable (or delete, if possible) not recognized and unwanted extensions.

    Often, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

    Any improvement?

    (3) you can search the rest of problems with scanning/cleaning tools listed in our technical support article: Troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware. These scanners on request are free and take a long time to run. If they end quickly, especially if they require the payment you have a serious infection. I suggest the specialty forums listed in the article in this case.

  • Since upgrading to FireFox 6, I can't start Firefox in Avast Sandbox - get the error "this application has failed to start because xul.dll not found." Firefox works well outside Avast Sandbox.

    The error box has the right
    Firefox.exe - Unable to locate component.
    He suggests reinstalling might fix the problem, but I've uninstalled and reinstalled firefox a number of times and no change.

    problem is Firefox works outside the sandbox avast, but inside the sandbox, xul.dll file is not found

    It is solved with these steps... some may be unnecessary
    (1) uninstalled Firefox
    (2) downloaded the latest version of FF (6.02) and installed
    (3) open the Avast user interface > extra Protection (in Avast v6) > Sandbox > Expert settings (button) > Web browsers > (in maintenance) "remove content" (button)
    (4) disconnected from Windows
    (5) connected and Firefox started in the sandbox

    It might be that the first 2 steps are not needed... but that's what I did and the problem was solved. As you can see in the screenshot, Firefox is virtualized successfully

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 4, I had no trouble. How downgrade and not lose my favorites? Or just downgrade without uninstalling Firefox?

    It does not load properly, freezes, crashes unexpectedly, don't pull up of PDF files from web sites and has problems with hotmail. I used Firefox for years and have never had this kind of problem. How do I downgrade to an older version? The new version 4 is obviously not ready to run and is riddled with problems.

    I was just made to look a right fool because of Firefox 4. My boss thinks now that I can't access a simple email! He has problems with IE and its home page had been hacked, so I installed Firefox (forget it automatically installed the most recent version) and it was horrible. The stupid browser will not open the Tiscali email in box for a reason, and he did look like I did something wrong, but it works perfectly fine on my computer running the latest Firefox 3.6. I downloaded 4 for a home use, because I thought that it would be even better, but it was horrible and I made a mistake in downloading it to my boss, thinking that it would make its use of the internet, better! Now, I had to uninstall loads of trash of its Internet Explorer browser and reset everything.

    All the buttons have moved, the tabs are in the wrong place and it is unresponsive! Why on earth have they trashed Firefox!
    

    To get back on track with my browser House, I didn't reactivate installing Firefox 3.16.6 (I kept the Setup file fortunately) and he replaced the horrible Firefox 4 and everything was back to normal. All my favorites and quick links were still in place.

    I think it's full of bugs, and my recommendation is to look for Firefox 3 and (without uninstalling Firefox 4) run the installer as usual to return to your old browser (much better and fully functional). It worked for me. If Mozilla Firefox 4 strength on me, I'll switch to Google Chrome or IE. It's HORRIBLE. Mozilla what you thought! Sort your act! Do not fix what is not broken!

    You can install all versions of previous Firefox from the link below.

    Download Firefox 3.6.16 here and return to the possibility of using your web browser, until they sort the darn bugs! I'm sure that eventually they will be fixed 4 issues so it works again. But seriously, 4 is a bad browser, ugly!

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

    Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

    When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.
