but it basically "turns off" the function where when Firefox is asked to manage a Flash type link Firefox "does not" start that sub-process in a separate Windows process but manages it within Firefox. Updates to Flash should not change any of those settings.ĭfoulkes wrote:Welllll.

the only way for that to happen would be a new/fresh install of Firefox (including the wiping out of your old profile) and if you were to create a new profile in your current Firefox install.that new profile starts out as a default one. at least, that's what I see it doing.Īs for it coming back on.

I believe the need to do this is due to an external security process over-protecting the PC and will not allow that plugin-container to start. Some users around here have had to turn that off like you did in order to get stuff to work. I think the "Click to Resume" effect after first using IE might be related to the BBC website (and not to the browsers) which remembers what you have watched. I have not updated Firefox in that time but have updated the Flash player every time there was a new version. As litle as a couple of weeks ago I could use the iPlayer in Firefox, except sometimes Firefox crashed when stopping a viewing session.
I have now checked that I cannot watch ANY Flash in Firefox, so the problem is not just for the BBC iPlayer which is my main requirement for Flash. I have everything I should and my McAfee Firewall is set to fully allow plugin-container.exe.

if your PC is rejecting that start-up due to either XP's settings and/or your Firewall/AV software is blocking it then you may end up with those errors. When you hit a vid that requires Flash Firefox will start up what is called a Plugin-container and that is where the Flash runs. If the above is all true you have the Flash (the non ActiveX) in your control panel and you also have it in your Firefox plugins. If you do then open up your Firefox, click on the Addons manager in Tools. you should have two (2) Adobe Flash lines. open up your Control panel and click on "Add/Remove programs".

Due to its history of security and stability problems, users on the desktop are still encouraged to always update to the latest version.Dfoulkes wrote:IE has it's own version of Flash and I believe most if not all the other browsers use a non-active-X version do work with them. Adobe announced the end of Flash for mobile devices in late 2011. However, with the advent of HTML5, Adobe Flash is in decline. Without it, many videos and games cannot be displayed in the browser. No additional installation is necessary for Google Chrome which includes its own edition maintained by Google.Īdobe Flash Player is still an essential part of today's web browsing experience. One, called Adobe Flash Player ActiveX, is only for the use within Microsoft Internet Explorer, while the other, Adobe Flash Player Plugin (this one here), is for the use in other browsers such as Mozilla Firefox. On Windows, there are two separately available editions of Adobe Flash Player. It is not available within the browser on Apple's iOS mobile devices (iPhone, iPad), where Apple disallows it citing security and stability reasons. Flash Player is often used to display videos, games, and advertisements.Īdobe Flash Player Plugin is available for many platforms and browsers, including Windows, MacOS X, Linux, and several mobile device operating systems such as Android. It was initially developed by Macromedia, which was purchased by Adobe in 2005. Since its inception in 1996, Adobe Flash Player has become a quasi-standard for the display of video content on the web.
