Hello ,

I have a very strange problem since last night after I upload a video of mine on FB.

Everyone else can watch the video except me.

Both on my macs flash player stopped playing FB videos when I click on.

If it is a youtube shared video I have to visit youtube in order to watch it.

Games that use flash player are working just fine

On Youtube everything is working fine.

I get this on facebook

Flash Player upgrade required
You must download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to view this content

I have uninstall FPlayer and install the latest version for PowerPc with no luck several times using the right method.

I have repair permissions on every install.

G4 macs

10.4.11

Flash player 10,1,102,64 installed

Safari 4.1.3,Firefox,Omniweb.

Thank you very much.

    Do you have 3rd-party Flash content allowed at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/se ttings_manager03.html ?

    yes I have it enabled.

    It is strange that everything stopped working just like that.

    My friends PC running windows has   10,3.,83,5 version installed which is not the latest  (11.1.102.55) and everything is working fine!!!

    Just came across this issue last night on Facebook.  Installed the latest Adobe Flash Player (11) but it did not resolve the issue.as I still get the "Flash Player Upgrade Required ..." 

    Everything was fine last week.  Any updates/solutions anyone??
