Real player firefox plugin windows

I tried all the disabling of plugins and the still not a single video would play. Some didn't even show up on the page. Youtube gave me a black video screen with an error message and said try again later. When I switched over to IE it all worked fine. I got sick of all the try this and try that crap!!!! Quit using the Microsoft style mind boggling run around solutions that never work. Straighten this out Mozilla. I don't care much for IE but I'm not wasting any more time. If you don't want people using Realplayer on Firefox then just admit it.

I haven't tried the rollback Adobe Flash player to I think Checkmate is correct, the problem is the Adobe Flash Player 11 update that fouled things up. I agree, Firefox's troubleshooting steps are useless because even though the RealPlayer Record plugin extension apparently is the cause for some users, I've tested it with the same symptoms you're having and it's NOT the cause.

And even if it were, it's not a fix or even an adequate workaround. All you have to do is revert back to the earlier version of Adobe Flash plugin I did this before Adobe recommended it as a last resort and everything works just fine - videos play and download using Firefox.

There's a link to the Also, FF is either giving a pop up recommending disabling the RealPlayer Record plugin extension or disabling it automatically on an upgrade.

But either way, you can re-enable it. I you can't, call RealPlayer to let them know. Firefox and Adobe's Developers are working on it. RealPlayer's recommendation is to revert back to Adobe Flash version It's interesting that you and I had the exact same symptoms and after disabling the downloader you could watch videos again but when I disabled it it made no difference.

There do seem to be multiple causes or conflicts here for different users, but all still having to do with that Adobe Flash update There are other, more advanced troubleshooting steps like disabling a new Protected Mode feature but that reduces security and it involves some confusing instructions to do, so it's not the best solution even though FF and Adobe mention it.

But I'm really curious what you actually do to resolve this as a workaround till it's fixed - revert back to the earlier version of Adobe Flash or simply disable the downloader? Just in case you don't know, if you just disable the downloader, you can still download videos with Internet Explorer and the RealPlayer download button, because it's only in FF that the Flash update is causing problems.

Here's the link to download and install the But first you need to uninstall the I'll show you how to do that but first read my next post if you need it. Then look for the On the page that appears, look for where it says Windows choices and click on "Flash Player With this solution, as I said, you'll be able to use the downloader with Firefox, and the Let me know how it went. You're getting a valuable lesson early on about how routine updates can sometimes cause ridiculous conflicts.

I do agree with everything you are saying checkmate except it is Firefox who is not disabling my realdownloader it totally no longer works.

They are saying this is a security issue which is bull, real player down-loader has had this issue every time ff upgrades, why? Is it really that difficult to correspond with the add ons and extensions your company knows are popular.

I just really feel that ff is turning a huge customer base against them. Chrome is nearly just as fast as ff now and internet explorer has been stepping up security issues and advertising problems.

For two straight weeks ff worked better and faster then it ever had since I began using them, with my realdownloader working as well. Now they just had to upgrade and get everyone all upset because nothing works , why? Is it that hard to make upgrades optional until the plug ins work, I think not, bad business and bad customer relations.

As for Thank you my friend because your instructions have me up and running for now. I have bookmarked this page and if you don't mind I would love to learn a few things from you as you instruct others, thank you Laura.

Just know there are hundreds of people on these forums complaining about these issues after the Adobe Flash Plugin update for FF and many also calling RealPlayer also.

You don't see them only because this isn't the main thread for this particular issue. But don't confuse this issue with the frequent compatibility problem until RealPlayer updates the downloader after a FF upgrade.
