I don't wish to go back to an earlier version of Adobe flash as the earlier version caused other problems.i.e. with RealPlayer. Why is it that the latest Adobe flash works perfectly with Internet Explorer but will not work with Firefox. Is there any way I can get it to work with Firefox, rather than when the problem occurs having to download IE and start again? Would appreciate your advice. Thanks

  1. Try disabling Flash Players protected mode.
  2. Also ensure Real Player related software is fully updated, and check the RealPlayer support forum for any recently reported issues. Maybe ask yourself if you find nothing.

Also try with hardware acceleration turned on or turned off. Use both the Firefox control and the FlashPlayer control for that setting.
