Unable to change the Flash microphone settings












7















I want to find out the name of a song by singing or humming it on Midomi.



I follow these steps:




  1. I go on the website «www.midomi.com»;


  2. I click on the area «Click and Sing or Hum»: a message appears saying «You must first "Allow" permissions in "Microphone Settings" to use Voice Search» and showing the button «Microphone Setting»;


  3. I left-click on the button: nothing happens; I right-click on it: a menu containing the entry «Global settings...» shows;


  4. I click on the entry: the «Adobe Flash Player Preferences» appears;


  5. I click on the tab «Camera and Mic», then on the button «Camera and Microphone Settings by Site...»: a new window opens;


  6. I save «www.midomi.com» and «midomi.com» as «Allow», then exit.



Nonetheless, the problem is not resolved: I can't sing or hum the song as the microphone settings message is still there.



My system:



– OS: Ubuntu 12.10 desktop 32 bit;



– WWW browser: Firefox 17.0.1.



Any suggestions?

            For others having problems with Flash using Firefox, using Google Chrome solved the problem for me. Firefox seems to work particularly badly with Flash on Linux.
