Hi there,

Running FF4 on Mac Snow Leopard (so, the 64-bit version, I think) and it can't seem to find Adobe Flash and some other Plug-ins I have installed. I know they're installed correctly because other browsers I have use them, and I can see them in Finder.

I found this at the bottom of my pluginreg.dat file and wonder if it has something to do with the problem:

[INVALID] /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin:$ 1303869834000:$ /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt:$ 1248319414000:$ /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Quartz Composer.webplugin:$ 1242712938000:$ /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/NP-PPC-Dir-Shockwave:$ 1139361284000:$ /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/A/JavaPluginCocoa.bundle:$ 1298488392000:$ /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/flashplayer.xpt:$ 1302566815000:$

Thanks!

Firefox 4 runs by default as a 64 bit application on Mac, so you need a 64 bit version of the Flash player or start Firefox in 32 bit mode.
