1. Re: Latest flash player won't play video on firefox
can you tell us from which build you were upgrading from and too? how are you upgrading, meaning which mechanism are you using? can you confirm the current build that is installed by going here: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
or is that blacked out too? a screenshot or 2 would help us visualize the problem. there's a known issue with uploading files to this forum with colons in the filename, so please delete them before adding. thanks...
