Flash Issues When Using Chrome

Chrome and Flash can sometimes have a volatile relationship....

When certain online applications aren't working correctly, it can oftentimes be related to Flash. Recently, users of online application such as DreamBox and Schoology have encountered issues.

So, here are some steps you can take to help prevent the interruption of online services when Flash seems to be the issue:

Open Chrome
Click the Menu button (3 vertical dots at the top right)
Click Settings
Scroll to the bottom and click Advanced
Under Privacy and Security, click Content Settings
Click Flash
Turn off "Ask first" by clicking the blue dot on the right

On the same window, you can click Add (to add the website location that is having issues)
For example, if DreamBox is having a problem, do the following:
Click Add
Type [*.]dreambox.com
Click Add
Close the Settings Tab

What will this do?
[*.] is like saying "anything" -- dot -- dreambox.com = Play flash if needed.
