After upgrading to Firefox 34.0.5, every time I view a page that requires Flash, the plugin crashes. This includes Youtube videos, Tumblr audio posts, and various news websites that include video. As I was testing different websites to see if I could discover a pattern, I found that flash files hosted on Deviantart were the only things I could get to work. Anyone know how to fix this problem? It's very frustrating having to open a different browser just to watch a video.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
