After testing on Adobe's website and others, flash is definetly not working on 4b9 64 bit, but it does on 32 bit environment. It's also perfectly working with safari.

You need to start Firefox as a 32 bit application.

OK so there is no way to have it to work in 64 bit. Will it ever be possible ?

Thanks for your reply

You're welcome.

You will probably have to wait until Adobe releases a 64 bit version of Flash, currently only beta test versions are available.

Oh! So i'll have to complain to Adobe then ;) lol just joking, thanks again ! Didn't know Adobe was only working in 32 bit.

Have a good day ! (or night, depending) :P

Adobe Flash "Square" is a 64-bit beta version of Adobe Flash. http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html

It brought flash back to Firefox 4b10 on my 64-bit macbook with Mac OS 10.6.
