So, which flash player release are you running on? Go to control panel, and click on flash, and select the advanced tab. Firefox uses the plugin version.

That's what is current. I think I had to reinstall Flash when I installed Firefox a while back. Are you using Norton security? Are you on an old Pentium III or older CPU or AMD?

No norton security. I use Intel I3

should I uninstall and then reinstall the adobe flash player

more options

I just installed it over the same one, but I did not have the plugin version showing because I had no Firefox, and it installed the plugin. You could try the install over first. Otherwise, if you remove it, I would restart your pc before installing.

Adobe put out a new level of Flash and Air, second Tuesday (like Microsoft does), so you could try it. It might fix your problem. Let us know.

This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with the Flash Player plugin. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:

(1) If you have any recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media make sure they are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.

(2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash

(A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:

orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"

(B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

(3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista and higher)

See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?

Any luck?
