Any ideas to fix this? Or if there may be another issue?
If important: using a Mac

All of the browsers are having problems with Flash, with Firefox being the worst. I finally switched to Chrome and it helped somewhat, but the problem is with the Flash plug-in. I wish there were some alternative to Flash.

just give the major websites a few more months to push flash out of their sites.

What's taking so long? HTML was pushed out to kill Flash off years ago.

You can thank Microsoft because IE9 barely supports html5 and many organizations >70% of our customers in fact are still on IE8 or IE7.
Web developers can either continue to develop in parallel which is expensive or just cater to the shitty minimum IE spec and go flash.
At least Microsoft stopped IE7 support recently but until they make IE10 the oldest browser they support these content providers won't make the switch.
Oh and frick adobe for continuing to confuse the issue by having both shockwave (director) and shockwave flash (flash) as the plugin names. Good job with the clear branding you fossil of a tech company.
