Can't download free Adobe Flash Player - Help

I tried to download free Adobe Flash Player or Adobe Reader (is the same) and appears in the screen the following message:
"GetPlus+(R) The specified software requires a recent version of windows" and I can't proceed with instalation. I have already done a virus verification with Kasperky and it's OK. I have Windows XP (SP3) and Internet Explorer 7.
Thank you very much for your help!

Hi, Don't use that DLM(download manager) since it can cause a problem.
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
Disable any Realtime Anti-Virus until you have finished Uninstalling and Installing Flash Player
Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
Check to make sure the Anti-Virus is still Disabled
Run the Installer for IE, and when finished, Reboot.
Re-enable your Anti-Virus
Then go to this test site and test each browser:

You may want to print these instructions to make it easier to follow. If you have any questions, let me know.
Thanks,

I can't download/install Adobe Flash Player update version 11.7.700.169.

I have tried several times to download and install Adobe Flash Player update version 11.7.700.169 without success. My OS is Windows XP with SP3 and my web browser is Internet Explorer. My current Adobe Flash Player version is 11.6.602.180. In the Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player IE window I unchecked the checkbox "Yes, install Chrome as my default browser and Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer - optional" and clicked [UpdateNow]. Then I followed the installation instuctions. When I tried to run the installer I got an Internet Explorer Script Error dialog box.
I then clicked yes on the Scrippt Error dialog box and it closed. The new version did not install. I still have the old version.
What am I doing wrong?

Adobe no longer supports Flash on Android. Adobe doesn't recommend this (this versions have vulnerabilities) but if you really want it, you can try installing an old version from their archives - http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#Flash%20Player%20archives (you'll have to scroll down to find the Android versions).

Issue with Adobe Flash Player- Help

I used to be able to use my webcam! I downloaded the Adobe Flash Player and now I can't use it anywhere!
I am unable to see the Privacy pop-up allowing me to Allow or Deny access to my camera & microphone.
Then when I get to the settings on one site, I see only 3 tabs: Display, Microphone & Camera.
Help?
I have it clicked on my built in iSight.
Before I downloaded the it I clicked on USB Video Class Video and it worked. Now that doesn't even show up!

Since it is nothing to do with FMS and looks like more of a flash player issue - it would be good if you post your query here : http://forums.adobe.com/community/webplayers/flash_player

I can't get my Adobe flash player 11.1.0 or greater on my PC

I can't get my Adobe flash player 11.1.0 or greater on my PC

On this topic : sound is garbled and sped up on Ustream videos in Chrome, IE, and Firefox. I tried to uninstall Version 17 and install the Beta but that didn't work. The uninstall left me with no flash for Firefox. I tried to download and install the recommended version that didn't work either.
Some people are saying they can eliminate the garble by reducing the resolution to 460? I don't know where and how to do this. There doesn't seem to be any way to manage the Flash Player resolution size window.
However, earlier I was able to view a clear stream with Ustream on a different computer-so I am afraid all this fussing has introduced a corruption onto my computer.
Any help would be appreciated: i.e how to remove any errors I introduced and start over clean.
Thanks

Deactivate progressive download in Adobe Flash Player

Concerning progressive download in Adobe Flash Player, I have these questions:
1) Is it possible to deactivate or disable progressive download in Adobe Flash Player? For instance, if I want to watch a 30 minute video on a video site, and I have Adobe Flash Player installed, then by clicking on the video link, Adobe Flash Player will automatically begin to progressively download the file, thus enabling me to watch the video while it is being downloaded. At the end of the download, the entire 30 minute video file is stored in a temporary folder on my computer's hard disc. Supposing I don't want that file to be fully downloaded unto my harddisk, what options do I have to prevent Adobe Flash Player from progressively downloading the said file?
2) Since Adobe Flash Player utilizes progressive downloads, what happens to the downloaded file? Will it be automatically deleted when the browser is closed, or will it remain in the temporary folder?
3) Are there any settings which I can to configure either on the operating system or in the browser which will prevent or deactivate progressive download?
Thanks very much in advance for your reply.
Best regards
Jack

What are local storage settings?
Applications that run in Adobe Flash Player may want to store some information on your computer, but the amount they can store is limited to 100 kilobytes unless you agree to allocate additional space. Local storage settings let you specify how much disk space, if any, applications from a particular website can use to store information on your computer. Note that it is the person or company that has created the application you are using that is requesting such access, not Adobe (unless Adobe has created the application that wants to save the information). In the dialog box shown above, [website] represents the name of the person or company requesting access. It is the responsibility of the person or company requesting access to make it clear to you why they want access and how they plan to use the information they save. You should be aware of the privacy policy of anyone who is requesting access to your computer. For example, see Adobe's privacy policy. Contact the website requesting access for information on their privacy policy.
It's important to understand that even though this settings panel is part of Flash Player, the information will be used by an application created by a third party. Adobe assumes no responsibility for third-party privacy policies, actions of third-party companies in storing information on your computer, or such companies' use of such data or information.
What kind of data can an application that runs in Flash Player store on my computer?
The kind of information stored depends on the application. Information can be anything from your user name to your current score in an interactive game to a list of stocks in your portfolio. The application should make it clear what kind of information it wants to store.
Who has access to the information?
This information may be accessed by an application that is currently running in Flash Player or by another application that runs in Flash Player on the same website. Adobe does not have access to this information (unless Adobe has created the application that wants to save the information).
As discussed in What are local storage settings? above, it is the responsibility of the website requesting access to make it clear to you why they want access and how they plan to use the information. For example, will it be available only to you, or will it be posted in a public place? Who will have access to it in the future? Will it be deleted after a certain period of time? The privacy policy of anyone who is requesting access should address these sorts of issues.
I've already set privacy and disk space options in my browser. How do these settings interact with my Flash Player settings?
You may be aware that some websites work together with your browser to store small amounts of data, called cookies, on your computer for their own use in the future. For example, when you go to a website regularly, it may welcome you by name; your name is probably stored in a cookie, and you can use browser options to determine whether you want cookies or not. You may also have specified in your browser that pages you visit can take up only a certain amount of disk space.
When SWF or FLV content is being played, the settings you select for Flash Player are used in place of options you may have set in your browser. That is, even if you have specified in your browser settings that you do not want cookies placed on your computer, you may be asked if an application that runs in Flash Player can store information. This happens because the information stored by Flash Player is not the same as a cookie; it is used only by the application that runs in Flash Player, and has no relation to any other Internet privacy or security settings you may have set in your browser.
Similarly, the amount of disk space you let the application that runs in Flash Player use has no relation to the amount of disk space you have allotted for stored pages in your browser. That is, when SWF or FLV content is being played, the amount of disk space you allow here is in addition to any space your browser is using for stored pages.
No matter how you may have configured your browser, you still have the option to allow or deny an application that runs in Flash Player permission to store the information, and to specify how much disk space the stored information can occupy, as discussed in the rest of this document.
What are my local storage options?
If you don't want to let applications from this website save any information on your computer, and you don't want to be asked again, select Never. Note that applications from other websites may later ask to store information on your computer. If you don't want applications from any website that you haven't yet visited to store information on your computer, and you don't want to be asked again, use the Global Storage Settings panel.
If you want to let applications from this website save information on your computer, but you want to decide on a case-by-case basis for each application, move the slider to the far left (None). Each time an application from this website wants to save information on your computer, you will see a question asking for more disk space.
If you want to let applications from this website save as much information on your computer as they need to, move the slider to the far right (Unlimited).
If you want to let applications from this website save information on your computer, but want to limit the amount of disk space they can use, move the slider to select 10 KB, 100 KB, 1 MB, or 10 MB. If an application needs more space than you have allotted, you will see a question asking for more disk space while the application is running.
If an application from this website has already saved some information on your computer and you select a value that is lower than the amount of information already stored, Flash Player informs you that any information that has already been saved will be deleted.
If you don't want existing information to be deleted, click Cancel to return to the Local Storage Settings panel, and then select a higher value. Otherwise, click OK to delete the information and return to the application.
How can I change my local storage settings?
You may want to change your local storage settings if, for example, you want to allot more space for information from this website. To display the Local Storage Settings panel:
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the application image while it is running.
From the context menu, select Settings, and then click the Local Storage tab.
You can also change storage settings directly with your browser here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l

Download of adobe flash player

I can't download the latest version of flash player, because a script always misses. Can you help me?
I think the adobe flash player download doesn't work.
Thank you for helping me.

Thank you very much for helping me.
In the first, I wish you a merry and happy New Year.
I'm from Italy and I'm living in Turin. If you come to Italy, I can show
you my Country in her hidden beauty, in my spare time from work. I'm on
Facebook as "ester giuditta".
About my troubles in Informatics:
I kept a Flash Player reader 11 a few minutes ago, but it is without size
and date in the computer panel control and, when I go to YouTube, at the
beginning I read: "you need the new version of Adobe Flash Player", but
then the video starts at the same.
In another platform, a FAD type, I can't see anything (in the past I could
by my old Flash Player).
About your very important questions:
1. Windows XP pro
2. Internet Explorer (perhaps 9)
3. I don't remember very well. I saw different messages about objects
and missing scripts.
I beg your pardon for my English.
Best

Downloading an adobe flash player

How can I get an adobe flash player, please give me a hand, I really had a hard time downloading it. I needed it so bad, I can't play my favorite candy crush. It says that I need to upgrade my Adobe flash player. Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I watch movies on my various WP8 phones all the time. You just won't be able to watch them on sites which still use Flash. Can't help you with Candy Crush I'm afraid, although there are plenty of other games available in the store, I'm sure you can find something you like.
