I can't upload videos to my facebook. I can do it with google, but not with firefox since its last update. Also it is power hungry and consumes more ram! It crashes every 30 minutes and to be honest I am seriously thinking of removing it and tell my friends to remove it too. What am I supposed to do to upload a video to my facebook page?

FLASH - "GLOBAL STORAGE SETTINGS" SOLUTIONS

I went to Flash's control panel website. It is considerably more extensive than the one that pulls up with a "right click" of the mouse on the video. [[Flash Control Panel|http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.html]]

I saved this as a bookmark to find my way back if needed

I "loosened up" a couple of the permission settings and now it works fine.

The one that makes it work or not for is the second folder, Global Storage Settings, and checked the box - "Allow third party Flash content to store data on your computer." The slider bar is still set to 0.

I had tried this on the limited standard control LOCAL setting (right click on the vidoe) earlier and no luck. There is nothing on the GLOBAL setting panel for it.

All the settings are back to original with the exception of the one listed above on the second folder and it works fine. The second box, Store common Flash components, was already checked.

The video and audio quality is a just as good as my local player.

This must have happened with the last update.
