Ryan Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Well I downloaded Flash player 8 and now flash isn't working on any site I go to..I'm running Firefox 1.0.7 on Windows XP. Sorry, I just don't really see what all I can say other than it's not working. I go to the site and it's just blank where the flash document should be. I've restarted my computer since then and to no avail. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Have you tried reinstalling the flash8 player? Perhaps u had a corrupted download Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape. If we let players start doing this, it devalues RuneScape for others.

Mercifull Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Sometimes the simplist option is the right one ;) Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

Ryan Posted September 27, 2005 Author Share Posted September 27, 2005 Sometimes the simplist option is the right one ;) Didn't work :(. I do have a feeling it didn't genuinely reinstall though. I'm not good with words when it comes to this kind of thing, but I dl'd the installer and then closed my browser and such, and then I hit install. It brought up the small window with the blue progress/loading bar and went through all the files and then got 100% on the bar. After that it just closed and that was the end of it? Flash still isn't working following that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weezcake Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 I would: 1. Uninstall Macromedia flash 2. Delete the dled installation file and redownload (or clear your cache, if it's downloaded into the temp internet files) 3. Try installing again. :) ==================================Retired tip.it moderator.Teaching and inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I uninstalled and then tried to reinstall I can't get it to show up in my "Add/Remove" programs area now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there? This is so bizarre. http://www.wirenine.com/ has a flash header that is actually working. But Flash won't work anywhere else..I'm so confused.

Chris Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer Go there in Firefox? I went on Newgrounds in firefox and it allowed me to go straight to the page to download it, but it was definately a stand-alone. As it only gave me the option to upgrade Firefox. Notoriously Trollish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted October 1, 2005 Author Share Posted October 1, 2005 *dodges all objects throw,launched,hurled, and shot in his direction* Apparentally, the FF extension Adblock was preventing Flash from displaying on all these sites. The problem is that I haven't put in any new tags, so Flash Player 8 must be using one that I am blocking for some reason and I can't find it. Thanks everyone.
