First of all, please excuse me for my English.

A few hours ago, I booted up my pc and Windows asked me to update flash player version.

After that, flash player stopped working on Firefox.

I downloaded standalone uninstaller for 64 bits, then installed Flash 11.1.102.55 for IE and Flash 11.1.102.55 for Firefox.

Everything went ok in IE (both 32 bits and 64 bits), but Firefox still not working.

Flash was working with no problems in Firefox before updating.

Please help me with this problem.

Thak you

Juan Manuel

I'm trying to determine if my issue is related to this thread. Audio players on pages like this will not play in firefox 8.0.1 on my wiindows 7 64 bit machine. I have uninstalled and installed adobe flash several times and cannot get these files to play. They play fine on every other browser including firefox 8.0.1 running on windows xp 32 bit.

I've seen and read several comments similar to yours on this thread. I haven't

exactly had the problem they described (like yours, "Not Working"). My problem

is when I adjust the volume of a video, a pop-up appears with a web-site asking

to store something on my hard drive and it wants more space, typically 12 kb and

it's only getting 2 kb.

I "solved" this problem by:

1) Download and run 64 Bit Flash player uninstaller (http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_64bit.exe)

2) Download and Install Flash Player 11.0.1.152 (Non-IE) 64-bit from FileHippo (http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox_64/10746/)

3) Download and Install Flash Player 11.0.1.152 (IE) 64-bit from FileHippo (http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_ie_64/10747/)

I think step 3 could be ignored and install 11.1.102.55 instead (only for IE)

After that Flash Player works on Firefox 8 but it isn't updated version, so security issues still there.

No, didn't work.

I tried installing it through Firefox, it downloads to 100% then it fails...

Where can I download the Adobe Flash player 10? Seeing that 11 doesn't work

I also tried install from inside Firefox and always failed. Only manual installation works. So I downloaded installer from FileHippo.

I can't find Flash Player 10 installer for download, but i'm sure it wont work. Firefox will disable the Flash plugin because it is an old version.

Again, please excuse me for my English.

My problem with this version of flash player is in Firefox.  Whenever I click on the volume control (slider bar) on the site that I am viewing a video, a pop-up appears from Adobe Flash Player Settings.  The message says that a website wants permssion to store information on my computer but it doesn't say what the information is.  Then it says that it is currently using 12 KB of storage space and it is requesting 2 MB.  Then it wants me to click on "Allow" or "Deny".  I've been clicking on Deny and the pop-up disappears.  However, everytime I click on the volume control slider bar the pop-up appears again.

Prior to upgrading to this version last Friday, November 11, 2011, I didn't have these annoying pop-ups and I was running fine since September 16, 2011 when I got this new computer.

I thought I was the only one.

I also have this problem with Firefox 8, no problem with IE

I have uninstalled, rebooted then reinstalled multiple times (3 times). Still doesn't work.

Flash Player worked until this new update

Thanks
