I can't watch some Videos in fullscreen with Gnome 3
When I try to watch Videos in Fullscreen with my Webbrowser, it doesn't matter wether Firefox or Chrome, only at some video sites the whole panel disappears, sometimes the panel does not disappear, and sometimes half of the Activities Button stays there.

I had the same issue when I updated to Gnome 3 this week. Get the latest version of flash here (11.2.202.291): . You want the tar.gz version, not the YUM or RPM. The fill will be called install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64.tar.gz if you're running 64 bit for example.
Next In chrome go check out your flash version using this URL
chrome://flash/
You should see:
Chromium 25.0.1364.160 (Ubuntu 13.04) <--OLD
OS Linux
Flash plugin 11.2 r202 /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so <--location
Next extract and install the new version of flash you just downloaded
mkdir flash
mv install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64.tar.gz flash/
cd flash/
tar zxvf install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64.tar.gz
more readme.txt
sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.soReload chrome and enjoy full screen.
