I've been having problems with my internet timing out when I try to access pages & firefox says I may have an old version of adobe flash player which is unstable so I've been trying to install a new version. Firefox then says theres missing plugins but when I click on the install missing plugins button it says no suitable plugins were found so I don't know how to get it to install AFP

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== everytime I try to install Adobe Flash Player

Ever since I updated to 3.6 my internet gets super slow and unresponsive after about 15 minutes. I can't install the AFP because of the missing plugin and I think this might be why I'm having this problem. Need the plugin or I have to go back to the old version- HELP!

What can I do to resolve this?

I'm trying to watch a news program from this Wyoming television station - http://www.kcwy13.com/newscast.php?id=3169

Firefox tells me there is no suitable plugin.

I have the same issue. I cant watch videos on certain sites because Adobe flash is required- and instead of the "Allow" button there's an option saying "Install missing plugins" and these missing plugins cannot be found!!!


Why hasnt this problem been solved??? Clearly there are enough people struggling with it!

Try this simple fix... I just got it to work...

First visit http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html download and run the flash player uninstaller.

After that I simply ran the standalone flash player installer to be found here... http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe

This fix doesn't solve the auto-update issue in Firefox, but at least your Flash will hopefully work again in Firefox until a more permanent fix is made available from Mozilla...
