When I try to download Flashplayer, it won't initialize. I have tried several times to Adobe and Firefox Web site when I'm playing farmville or hidden Facebook Chronicles.

When I downloaded Firefox this morning and tried to play games on Facebook, the page would not come to the top. He said I needed to download the latest version of Flashplayer. I tried this and it wouldn't boot. Then I checked help and it said to uninstall the version I had, I did and then reinstall it. Now, it will not be installed. I can play these games on Internet Explorer, but I have problems with some pages won't load is not on Google Chrome. I have the pages I need on Firefox to get my gifts, but I can't play the games. Help, please?

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: not to be confused with "Adobe Shockwave for Director" since this is an application separate, older, but still in use, Adobe which is still used.
