Software :: Flash Player Not Working In ANY Browser?
Jul 31, 2010
I recently purchased a new laptop and installed Slackware64 13.1, it works fine, but I have no Flash in my browsers. I had downloaded and installed Google Chrome, took some work, but got it working, only no Flash support. Believing this to be a problem with Chrome, I tried in FireFox, and again, no Flash support. I downloaded Opera, the same, Konqueror, ditto. I downloaded the latest Flash, (Just the libflashplayer.so in the package, isn't that a little weird?) and put it in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins and tried Firefox again, no luck. I downloaded the latest version, installed it, but it keeps saying "firefox-bin: no such file or directory" even though it is clearly there. There is something not quite right here, and I can't seem to figure it out.
I bought a netbook (VPC) which is basic netbook with limited features. It has a basic version of Linux (Linux 2.6.24 platform). My instruction booklet says it does not support Flash (player): Flash - The current browser does not support any Flash players. This will prevent viewing some web pages. Certain major websites have a simplified version on the server which will load up. When I try to play games in flash, it does not work either. Browsing on the web also is very limited, I only see mobile (cell phone) versions? (the instruction booklet does state this though) I cannot even put favorites? Is there a way that I can get Flash installed or a better browser? So I can play games that are on Facebook, etc.? and view websites like a "normal" human being should be viewing them on the web?
This is what I figured out so far: Wi-Fi Onboard USB and Ethernet ports An SD reader 7″ TFT display with an 800X480 resolution 2GB of internal storage 100 MHz processor
Linux with preloaded programs such as internet browser, spreadsheet, word processor, a media player for movies, music and pictures, e-book reader, dictionary, calendar, PDF reader, email, chat, calculator, file manager.
i'm trying to install adobe flash player so i can view ..... videos in opera browser. without going into detail i have tried every possible way from all various instructions, even in the initial install it is suppose to install the flash player plugin from the software centre
I am using Fedora 14 right now and i can't figure out how to put in adobe flash player into the plugin repositories of the browser.
Does anyone know how to get it working so I can view ..... videos and or any other media file? Maybe step by step from the start? I downloaded adobe flash player version 10.2.159.1 all ready. I don't know if I should uninstall it then reinstall... Well enough of my rambling I'll let the veteran users have the final say.
I'm running Kubuntu and have tested flash video sites with firefox, chromium and rekonq. I have installed all the available packages from Software Management but flash videos still don't display correctly. All get is a small rectangle of video on the bottom left hand side of the video box (which is otherwise grey).
Is it possible to install and use Flash Player whilst running under a Tor enabled browser. I have seen a version compiled to run under Windows but don't want to go backwards! I am running Ubuntu 10.10.
I use slack 13.1 64 bits on my intel i7 machine. That is I can't find a flash-player plugin that works on all browsers. The firefox crashes on open. The release of adobe 64 bits plugin simply doesn't work on any browser. I use slack 13.1 64 plus kde. Anyone knows some that works?
I just installed Adobe Flash Player 10 and it says it's installed, when I go to firefox and Epiphany it still has flash player 9, Ive quited the browsers and everything Ive uninstalled/reinstalled still no luck.
I have installed and reinstalled flash player several times, but nothing works. What happens is anytime I try to play a flash game, the audio lags about 2-3 seconds. When I play a flash video, there is only very, very little lag. This problem also happened while I was running ubuntu.
Flash isn't working anywhere, and haven't done so properly since I first installed Ubuntu 10.04 a month ago. I have been able to make it work for a short period of time, by doing the following:
1. clearing the cache and the cookies.
2. installing the correct plug-ins for my system.
sometimes when I do this, Flash will work for a few minutes. what can I do to resolve the problem completely? the Flash plug-in I have is the Adobe Flash plug-in, version 10.1.82.76ubuntu0.10.04.2.
i'm using debian lenny...i've just installed mozilla firefox 4 on my system but the flash plugin is not working.ther browsers Like Opera orthe way i installed firefox Downloaded the package firefox-4.0.1.tar.bz2stored it in /tmp directory,jxvf firefox-4.0.1.tar.bz2launched it from $ /opt/firefox/firefox &
I installed Debian Wheezy on an external server. For my purpose I need to install a graphical interface with the following command
Code: Select allsudo apt-get install gnome-core xorg iceweaselNext I need to install xrdp to connect to the server via Remote Desktop Connection. Code: Select allsudo apt-get install xrdp
After that I installed Oracle Database 12c. It was a bigger effort to get the whole system going than initially supposed. As far as I can see it is working now. Finally to use Oracle Enterprise Manager in the Iceweasel Browser I also need to install the flash player. After modifying the sources.list I did that with the following command
Code: Select allsudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree.It installed successfully. Now I started the browser unfortunately it is not working perfectly. Typing in the URL of the Enterprise Manager I can see the site, but there is no text!!! (see the attached picture)

i am running an asus laptop with 10.04 lucid 64 bit.I had adobe flash working fine through google chrome but not firefox but i did not care as google chrome still worked. Today i updated my ubuntu and flash just stopped working all together now i can not access my cisco .netacad.net site and i need to.I have tried to fix it to no avail can any one a new to ubuntu person that is sick of windows.
On some pages it will not load, and on others it will load but i can only see up until where it has been scrolled to when the page loads (for example if you can only see half of the player when the page loads up and you scroll down, only half of it will be there the other half will be black)
why my adobe flash player is not working in ubuntu. i have installed it many times with synaptic manager and even reinstalled it but it does not work at all.
For some reason, a while a go my flash player (Adobe, ubuntu software center install) doesn't seem to like ...... Whenever I try to watch video's on ..... I get the error that Shockwave flash player has crashed. This also occurs when I try to maximize videos on hulu. It crashes in both chrome and firefox, and the funny thing is I can watch ..... videos that are embedded in other sites, just not on ......com. Does anybody know what might have happened?
I am trying to fix flash problem in Ubuntu 8.04, already installed all packages available in Respository but still flash is not working in mozilla firefox
Flash player won't work in my newly installed Fed 12 64. libflashplayer.so is in /usr/lib/flash-plugin /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins contains a symlink to the file.
I thought maybe this was a permissions thing. I changed owner to me. No good. I read some other threads about clashes 32 bit/64 bit. Is this the problem? It worked fine before I had to do a new install.
I'm using Fedora 13 and have the Adobe Flash Player installed. Some websites I view tell me that I need to install the flash player to view or listen to the content?? How do I get the flash player to work?
i installed Swfdec Flash Player from Ubuntu SOftware Center, how do you get flash player working on firefox? Also, how do you get music on ipods using linux ?
I have shockwave flash installed properly under Centos 5.5 running in virtualbox 3.2.12. I had no problems when I was using flash under 5.4 but for some reason can not access any videos or audio. I have confirmed that it is installed. I even tried renistalling it. It does show up as an add-on in Firefox too.
my media flash player is not working on my computer a bunch of files was deleted by mistake & it won't let me listen to music play videos or any games online its telling me to manually install the sudo command I did what you said & it's saying command not found how do I restore my system back to how it was.
My flash player hasn't been working for some time and I downloaded Flash Player 10 tar.gz from the Adobe website.I followed the instructions on various websites as the ones on the adobe website were too complicated for me, and after eventually figuring out how to open a terminal window, the commands wouldn't work.
Well being a newbie I have discovered something (or so I think!) regarding abode's flash plugin (flashplugin-nonfree): As per instructions from this same forum I had installed and used successfully in my Lenny 64, ever since it came out, abode's flash by first adding in my /etc/apt/sources.list the following repository: deb [URL]. Lately and for quite some time flash would misbehave and I had to reinstall it continuously and more often until it would work in the end only for some hours.
I reinstalled Lenny believing I could get over it but instead I ended up without any flash working at all! No videos only sound. Next step I deleted etch backports (#) and installed the sid repository: deb [URL] unstable main contrib non-free and went:#apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree which downloaded and installed flash 10 (I had flash 9 through backports) and consequently deleted (#) after that sid's repository to avoid updating Lenny, placing backports again in place although I do not know why ! Now I have videos working.
