1. Re: Flash Player Crashing in Firefox
oroehrer Nov 12, 2014 7:34 AM (in response to stevegr)I do have the same problem.
It started with FF 33. I tried many things (new profile, deactivating all plugins, reinstall etc.). Nothing helped. Turning off protected mode would help, but that is not a solution.
I am using FF 31 ESR now. It works. But I do want to use the latest versions of Firefox and Flash Player. If there is no solution in the future, I will no longer use Flash Player.

2. Re: Flash Player Crashing in Firefox
Jeromie Clark Nov 14, 2014 1:51 PM (in response to oroehrer)I'm using Windows 8.1 on a Surface Pro 2 with Windows 8.1 pro and the latest Windows Updates.
I'm using Firefox 33.1 with Flash Player 15.0.0.223, and I'm unable to reproduce the crash.
I go to http://cnn.com/video, right click using the touchpad on the attached keyboard and I choose Settings (I tried About and Global Settings as well, just to be safe). I had no problem opening them.
If you haven't restarted your machine recently, I'd start there. That eliminates the possibility that there are mismatched versions of the processes running.
If that doesn't help, can you please go to about:crashes, click the first few crashes listed to submit them, then give the the links? I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can glean anything useful from them. -

oroehrer Nov 14, 2014 9:47 PM (in response to Jeromie Clark)As I said, I tried a lot to solve the issue. There have been numerous restarts since then .
Cnn.com works. The problem occurs for example at Adobe - Flash Player or youtube. For testing I installed now Firefox 33.1.1 and Flash 15.0.0.223. The first test reproduced the crash. Here is the Firefox crash report: [@ hang | ntdll.dll@0x3aaac] - Firefox 33.1.1 Crash Report - Report ID: b916786e-a6e4-4097-965d-c90ce2141115

Jeromie Clark Nov 15, 2014 2:45 PM (in response to oroehrer)When I look at the crashing thread information, Flash Player isn't listed. It's hanging, but it's at some random offset down in the guts of Windows (ntdll.dll). Do you have the same issue with IE or Chrome?

oroehrer Nov 15, 2014 9:41 PM (in response to Jeromie Clark)No, the problems are in Firefox only. Chrome and IE are running fine, but both have separate Flash versions.

Jeromie Clark Nov 16, 2014 3:28 PM (in response to oroehrer)Yep. Based on what you've provided so far, it looks like a crash that needs to be fixed on the Firefox or Windows side of the equation. There is not currently an open mozilla bug on this crash, but you can see from the "More Reports" link that it's not an uncommon crash signature. If you have a few more crash reports that you want to share, I'd be happy to look at those as well.
