I have Windows Vista and have been using Facebook on it for several years with no problem. Recently, it will not run videos. I have installed FlashPlayer 14.0.0.1 and it tests out fine. Videos run fine directly from youtube. All I get is a black screen for the identical video in facebook.
I installed the debugger program and it gives the following report on errors every time facebook comes across a video.
An Action Script Error has occurred
Error: Error #2134: Cannot create SharedObject.
at flash.net::SharedObject$/getLocal()
at silvercity.player::AbstractPlayer()
at silvercity.player::ProgressivePlayer()
at silvercity::VideoPlayerApp/setupNewPlayer()
at silvercity::VideoPlayerApp/setup()
at facebook.display::FBAppLite/onAddedToStage()
I have installed, uninstalled,and reinstalled adobe flash player several times to no avail.
I have turned off ActiveX filtering.
I have disabled accelerators
I have checked to make sure it is listed in Manage Add Ons and is Enabled.
Sure could use some help.
Thanks.
I don't know from where you get 14.0.0.1; the current version is 14.0.0.176 (IE) and 14.0.0.179 (other browsers).
Usually the debugger helps Flash developers to debug their content, but in your case it gives us a clue: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/error-2134-cannot-create-sharedobject.html
Regarding the black screen, there is a possibility that your graphics driver is outdated; see https://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765

Excellent!! Solved my problem. Followed the instructions on the link and it worked instantly. Can't thank you enough. By the way, it was a typo in my original post. I have 14.0.0.176 version installed. I copied and pasted the version and it dropped the last two digits. Sorry about that.
Now that it is solved, how do I delete the debugger version and go back to the normal version of Flash?

Uninstall Flash Player (the debugger version), then reinstall the standard Flash Player.
