I have had the same issues. On IE (latest version) the picture flashes in occasionally. On Chrome it crashes CONSTANTLY!!! I have Windows 7 64 bit. I have uninstalled and reinstalled operating systems and flash several times. What the hell is Adobe's problem with compatability????

Dear Android, 2112: I have suffered these crashes for months also, with no improvement with 11.1.102.63. I reverted back to IE8 and the crash happens after watching any video for 10 mins. I have tried all the suggestions in helpx.adobe.com with no luck. Have a Windows 7 SP1 64-bit. Just supporting your frustration, so Adobe issues a bug fix soon

Having the same Issues youtube crashes any site using flash freezez my whole computer. Using  firefox chrome and ie. This is a major problem.

Dear Xircal : I have Windows 7 SP1 on a HPE 64-bit desktop. Running IE8, the flash player 11.1.102.63 brings the whole system crashing after 5 mins of play. I am playing the website bloomberg.com/tv. Sometimes IE8 stops and says the faulting module is flash11g.ocx or some such thing. I can get the exact crash dump, next time. This has happened for the last 6 months for me and it is very painful. Please help to fix it.

--Cheers

Dear Xircal: Thanks; I will do the steps and report back. As far as I know, there is no antivirus software running on my system. I uninstalled all of them some time ago to get my flash working. Windows defender, is the only malware system working. How do I find out if there are anti-virus scanners running on the system?

--thanks

Antivirus programs usually create desktop shortcuts. Otherwise, click Start, then look in the Programs list.

It's advisable to install one though because the threat of attack is very real. You can download the free version of AVAST from here: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=95170.0 When you run the setup file, make sure you remove the checkmarks from Google Chrome otherwise you'll suddenly have that as your default browser.

Windows 7 64 bit

Firefox 11.0

Adobe Flash 11.1.102.63 (updated March 19, 2012)

Having the same Issues youtube crashes any site using flash freezez my whole computer. Using  firefox chrome and ie. This is a major problem.

Also noticing cpu usage goes to 100% before whole computer freezes.

I can probably answer that for Eternal. It is more than likely plugin_container.exe. A Firefox Program to designed to isolate plug ins and keep the whole browser from locking up and crashing. I notice that when the Flash Plugins start acting weird and are about to crash, The plugin container's CPU usage goes thru the roof. I was able to put the plugin contrainer on low priority thru the Task Manager and it seems to help loosen the load a tad bit.  Doesn't help keep Adobe from Crashing but from what I have seen it just takes a bit longer to crash.

Dear Xircal: The uninstaller and installer links you have in your message are for 32-bit and it says it cannot run on my windows 7 64-bit machine. Can you please point to the 64-bit versions of these?

 

I went to get.adobe.com/flashplayer and reinstalled the flash player (after uninstalling it with control panel->programs and features). Flash player still crashes big time.

--thanks

Firefox hasn't been officially released in 64-bit yet, so I assume you're running either a BETA, or a third party version if you're seeing that message. Anyway, you can download the 64-bit uninstaller from here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows. html#main_Download_the_Adobe_Flash_Player_uninstaller

I used the 64 bit uninstaller to remove Flash Player. (64 bit Windows 7 OS)

I used the link you provided to 32 bit Flash Player Installer to install Flash player.

Installation is successful.

 

32 bit Firefox does NOT recognize the 32 bit plugin as a valid plugin on a 64 bit system.

 

It says at the top of the screen "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page"

That message about 'additional plugins' may refer to something other than Flash, like Java for example. Can you post the link to the site where you see that?

Do the following please.

1. In Firefox, click Tools | Options | Advanced. (If you have the Firefox layout with the oblong orange button top left, hit the ALT key to get the text links).
2. In the General tab, remove the checkmark from: "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page".
3. Click OK and then go to any site where you normally get the problem.

Do you get the same anomaly if you try and watch a video here? http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/stagevideo.html

EDIT: does your Global Settings Manager look the same as the one in the screenshot if you go to this link? http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/se ttings_manager03.html

Are you talking about this link? http://forums.adobe.com/message/4286975#4286975 If so, that was in response to Gajananam. You can see that at the top of the message.

Dear Xircal: FF is crashing so much on the flash player, t hat I am trying IE8 which also crashes but after about 10 mins. Is there a similar option in IE8 about "Warn me if a site is trying to redirect..."?

Dear Xircal: Thanks for the detailed tips. Will try tonight at home and update the progress. I have FF 11.0; is that good?

Yes. I have it too.

Thanks for the update Gajannam. i sent nasty e-mails to zynga, adobe, and face book again today. Many of my friends are leaving the games due to the problems. Hope someone listens at some point. Adobe seems to be at the center of all the issues. Good Luck!

Dear Chris: I would like to send you the log, but in my windows 7 SP1 64-bit, the system reboots after the crash. The BSOD message that flashes for 10 secs says either

"IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" or "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NO_PAGE_ZONE", or "MEMORY_MANAGEMENT". So it is difficult to get any crash logs.

Hi Gaj,

You need to do the following so that you can make a note of the blue screen data.

1. Click Start | Control Panel | System and Security | System | Advanced System Settings (link in left panel).
2. In the bottom menu called Startup and Recovery, click the Settings button.
3. In the middle menu called "System Failure", checkmark all the boxes and in the bottom menu called "Write debugging information", change the setting to "Complete Memory Dump".
4. Leave the name of the file at its default which is %SystemRoot%\MEMORY.DMP

The next time you get a pretty blue screen, it will remain on screen for 30 secs. If you've got a digital camera, use that to record info because even with 30 seconds to play with, time will still be a bit short if there's a lot of data. Disable Flash before you take a picture though otherwise all you'll see is the flash reflection.

You can check your Stop errors here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh406232%28v= vs.85%29.aspx

In Firefox, hit CTRL+F to open the search box, then type the first 0, then the "x", then the last two (alpha)numeric digits to find it quickly. So for example, the search string: 0x50 will jump to PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA. This is much easier than typing the whole bug which is 0x00000050.
