Flash no longer works with Firefox 13
so I have Firefox 13.0.1 and upgraded flashplayer to 11.3 and flash no longer works. I've tried lots of things, but finally downgraded flas player to 11.2. Still no joy. The only way I can get Flash to work is if I start Firefox in safemode with add-ons disabled. If i manually disable add-ons from within Firefox is still doesn't work, so I guess that isn't quite the same as the safemode disabling. I don't have RealPlayer installed. I tried creating a new profile, but still no joy. Any other ideas for me to try please?

If you install Flash from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_player_11_plugin_32bit.exe does it still not work?
Try Resetting Firefox Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
Also, try to disable hardware acceleration Turning off hardware acceleration

Thanks for the suggestions. I've tried all 3, but still no joy.
Try to disable hardware acceleration.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
thanks very much, this solved it! much appreciated
I'm not sure what solved it for.
Can you confirm what worked for you to help others who read this?
I turned off used hardware acceleration in Firefox settings. I had previously tried that setting in Flash itself, but that didn't solve it.
Thanks for the confirmation and you're welcome.
