'ello mates! I've been having a bit of trouble with my m11x R1 concerning the Adobe Flash Player.. I've had this problem for a while now. Not quite sure if it's an m11x problem or Flash problem but anyways..
Whenever I try to run Pandora.com, it tells me "The Flash local storage is currently disabled and must be enabled to use Pandora." Youtube.com and whatnot works but there are some games that use Flash that don't run/work. At first I thought it might be a Google Chrome problem (since I use Chrome). So I reformatted my laptop and installed my drivers in this order: 1. Chipset, 2. nVidia Graphics, 3. DW1520 Wireless-N WLAN. After that, I ran Internet Explorer 8 and proceeded to download Adobe Flash Player version 10,1,103,20 (which I believe is the current version). I went to Pandora and it still tells me the same error message. Now, I've researched this problem before and it looks like the error lies in the Global Storage Settings panel on the Adobe Flash Player website. I am required to tick the box "Allow third-party Flash content to store data on your computer. I tried checking that box but no checkmark appears when I press/click on it. I researched more on the problem and found this website: Fix Allow Third-Party Flash Content To Store Data On Your Computer I thought, "Hey! This might be it!!" Well, it wasn't. I tried running Google Chrome as Administrator and still couldn't check the tickbox..
Any ideas? =/ Flash player is quite an important feature in my life. (Especially Pandora >_<) ..and I've been deprived for over a month now..
Specs info:
Windows 7 (6.1) Ultimate Edition (Build 7600)
DirectX 11.0
Bios A05
Thanks for any help in advance! Might be a toughy..![]()

That is strange. I'm on pandora a few times a week and I've never experienced that. Local storage on my Firefox Flash plugin is set to 100KB and I've never made any adjustments to any Flash settings.
Also according to Adobe's Flash download site 10.1.102.64 is the latest version of Flash. Where did you download what appears to be a newer build?
EDIT: Woops. You're correct that .103.19 is the latest for Chrome. -
The problem occurs only with Chrome? Have you tried with IE and Firefox too?
If you have the problem only when using Chrome you should check if you are using the latest version. If you're up to date, try going to Old Version of Google Chrome Download - OldApps.com and start trying the old versions, starting from the version right below the version you are running. If it doesn't work with a given version, keep downgrading until you're in a version that was launched in a date where you are sure Pandora was still working.
But if the problem can be reproduced in IE and Firefox you don't need to do all this as in this case the problem is really related to Flash. Tell if you find something interesting. -
No I've tried it on Internet Explorer. I even tried it without installing Google Chrome at all and just using IE + downloading Flash player from the main website and still happens.. =[

So no one has any idea on how to fix this? No one else is having flash player problems? This is sad for me =[
