I keep having to uninstall new versions of Adobe Flash Player and re-install the 10.3.183.43 version. The latest version, 11.5.502.146, will not let me play YouTube videos, for example. I am using Firefox 18.0.1. I have tried many 'suggestions' to fix the problem but nothing has worked. What is the solution???

Adobe 11.5.502.146

Started experiencing problems after upgrading to 11.5.502.146

Embedded Youtube videos show are no longer showing on forums. Basically just a blank box.

I tried uninstalling using the uninstaller utility and reinstalled 10.3.183.43 archived version. Problem still persisting.

We have a new 11.6 beta available that you might want to try. In addition, please see this FAQ for Firefox troubleshooting steps.

How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?

I tried the new 11.6 but it did not work. I do not have Realplayer installed. I did a 'Reset' of my Firefox but it did not work. I restored my preferences to get it back to where it orginally was. I uninstalled 11.6 and reinstalled 10.3 it let the YouTube videos play again. I tried just about everything that has been suggested but I can not get 11.6 to work.

No, I have not found a solution. I have uninstalled the latest version and went back to the 10.3 version. Get the Adobe uninstall program to be able to uninstall the current version.

I think I found the older version at this Adobe site:

I have just about given up.
