Javascript & Adobe Flash questions.....

Hey guys- I installed Mozilla today and am not using IE anymore. Since dloading Mozilla, I keep getting windows saying "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player"...... Javascript is TURNED ON so I don't understand the message. I also downloaded the latest FLASH PLAYER so the message just doesn't make sense. ALSO- I am getting messges saying "install the latest flash plugin" which I HAVE!






Help please!

 

If you visit http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/, do you see what I see with my system: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/farmpond/Adobe2.jpg?

 

Do you have the NoScript add-on installed in Firefox?

 

usafvet:

I CAN see the shockwave player icon but NOT the flashplayer icon. I chose to download the flash player, it asked me to close firefox and restart. I did that and it still DOESN'T display the flashplayer icon. Does this mean flashplayer is not installed?


LennyW:

I can go to Tools menu>go to add-ons and DO NOT see that NoScript is installed.


Thanks for the help so far.....Any other ideas?

 

this is what i get when i try to watch a youtube vid:

"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player"

 

If you go to Tools, Options, and select the Content tab, is the box for Enable JavaScript checked?

 

YES it IS checked.


this is so strange.

 

Is Shockwave Flash listed in Firefox > Add-ons > Plugins tab?

Is Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin (not ActiveX) listed in Add or Remove Programs? (for XP)

 

Yes, but it says:

"shockwave for director- adobe shockwave for director netscape plug-in, version 11.5"

 

Shockwave Player is different than Adobe Flash Player. Install the one at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ (make sure to be in Firefox and close any other browsers and programs).

 

Lenny:

I've installed both and Im still getting "install plugins" with the blue shape that resembles a lego piece. I made sure everything was closed except firefox.

 

Is it asking you to install Flash again, or another plugin like QuickTime, etc.?

 

To all of you with problems downloading the latest Adobe Flash, time and time again, only you know the active X is there? .... Out of desperation, I went to the Adobe site and accessed their downloadable Active X for IE. It works!!!! I have been using it for 3 hours today and no hitches. Now, all I have to do is to remember this little trick for Adobe's next upgrade...grr!

 

With regard to the answer provided by USAFveteran: When I go to Tools/Option/Content there is nothing there about Java Script.

I'm using (Very unhappily) Vista 64 bit. When trying to go into my favourite e-card site it wants me to download Adobe Flash and other add ons. All that stuff is already on my computer and everything at this site worked fine yesterday, but I cant get in there at all to-day.
