Adobe Flash Player Settings Local Storage popup from Mafia Wars on Facebook.

[Guest]

I play Mafia Wars on Facebook. I use Mac OS 10.6.5, Flash Player 10.1, and Firefox 3.6.8. Some time ago I received a popup from Zynga entitled Adobe Flash Player Settings,  Local Storage asking permission to store info on my harddrive and giving me the option to allow or deny the request. However the popup is stuck; that popup will not go away.

I have contacted Zynga, followed their instructions, and have uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player. all with no success. When I play this game on other computers, including PCs, that popup is not there which leads me to the conclusion that the file is on my Mac hard drive somewhere and has nothing to do with the game itself. Please tell me how to find this file so that I may delete it. It spoils my enjoyment of the game because it limits what I can do in the game.

Thanks loads.

Hi, I would go to the Global Settings site here:

http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html

I would click on the website that gave you the popup and delete that website. Perhaps this will clear it since it is stuck.

When you visit that website again, it will problably ask to store info. Be sure to read about the Website Storage Settings Panel and how it works with the Global Storage Settings Panel.

Thanks,

P.S. If Flash Player is working, there is no need to Uninstall and Install it again. The games and Facebook will try to always tell you something is wrong with Flash Player. Clearly it was working until their pop up stuck, right?

Have you tried to set it permanently in the Global Settings

Wow! That worked. I went to the Global Settings, but didn't know that I should delete the seb site. Thanks.

OFF TOPIC (slightly):

well, try not getting too attached to mafia wars on facebook, it might soon be gone because Zynga has been sued for trademark infringement by the original owners of the game name (which was launched in 2004)
