Flash doesn't work even if it's installed

Hi,

I have a problem since a few days, I can't use Flash on any website, I keep getting the message "this content needs flash" or stuff like that.

I did uninstall and reinstall Flash from Adobe website for Firefox. I did check last updates for Flash AND Firefox. I did check settings to make sure Flash was activated : it is.

I did change some settings in about:config a long time ago but hadn't any troubles, could it be that ? What should I do ?

Thanks.

I take it this is with all websites?

Anyway you can remember what settings you changed in about:config ?


Make sure you are not blocking content.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
