Flash players shows as installed but not recognized by adobe web site

I have downloaded  flash player 10.3 -windows 7 64 bit -IE9 browser 32 bit.  No error message during install. Dialogue box said done and closed adobe manager window.  If I look under installed programs on my pc it shows flash player and if I go to manage add ons in browser it shows an adobe plug in as enabled.  My proble--which never occured before in the 5 months I have had my pc -is when I go to any web page it apears the flash player is trying to put information in blank advertisemen spots but instead these adds are flickering in upper left hand corner of web page.  Also, if I go to one of the adobe web pages to check what version I have--I expected to see a little dialogu box with my version number--instead that doesn't happen but I see a lot of flickering pictures in that space.   Anyone know what might be the issue and how to fix?  I have uninstaled the flash player as it was causing too much disturbance with all the flickering images in left upper portion f browser.  Also, this is not video content just static images that should be showing up n various spot of each web page.

Hi, What Inofor linked to is helpful. Some users have done this also and that has solved their issues. It sort of depends on what is causing the problem it seems. This came from a couple of other threads that used it. Maybe they didn't have the problems discussed in the link Inofor posted.
I don’t know if somebody has suggested this or not but what I did to make Flash 10.3 work on my IE9 (32 bit on a 64bit Windows 7) was to click on the gear icon, then click on “internet options”, then “advanced”, then finally uncheck “use software rendering instead of GPU rendering” finally you must close IE9 for the settings to work"
Thanks,

  • ADE installed but not recognized

    I am using Windows 10, a Nook, My Media Mall.  ADE is installed, my computer authorized and I am activated.  When I download an E book, it appears to be downloaded, but when I try "open with" the only option showing is Adobe Reader. Then, I look for other programs but ADE is not listed as an option.  Is there something I have not done?

    Windows 7 and IE 11 ... I also use Firefox, for business only.

  • How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI?

    How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI? I'm having some hiccups getting Adobe to register the software, but since I set it as the default .pdf reader during setup, things try (and fail) to open in the as yet unregistered software. How can I change it temporariiy to the Acrobat Reader XI that I have installed?

    Anubha,
    It worked! Thank you so much.
    I'd opened file with the 'Open with' feature then clicking Adobe Reader,
    but that didn't do it. When I used 'Open with', then 'Choose default
    program...', it worked like a charm.
    Again, thank you!

  • Flash 10 installed but not being detected by numerous sites

    Hi!
    I have installed and re-installed Flash 10 numerous times
    over the past day trying to get it to work. I have followed the
    "Trouble Installing Flash for Windows" solutions including Subinacl
    and everything else that is suggested there. I have also deleted
    the Configuration Flag Registry Key that was mentioned in another
    Adobe bulletin. I tried uninstalling flash using the utility from
    safe mode to ensure nothing else was using flash, I also
    uninstalled it from the cmd prompt. I downloaded all the installers
    to my desktop so everything is running from there. When I go to the
    Adobe site that verifies the version, it recognizes the correct
    version that I have installed. I've lowered my security levels to
    precarious levels and I'm all out of options. I am running IE7,
    Windows Vista business, and Flash 10. I went to some of the Adobe
    sites of the day to try and see if it was working and here were the
    results:
    www.cbc.ca/thetudors - Shows black screen where Flash should
    play and shows the yellow triangle done with errors icon with the
    following error - "unexpected call to method or property access"
    www.gettheglass.com - Successfully played the game and no
    issues were experienced
    www.forces.ca - Error message saying I don't have the correct
    flash installed
    www.thestar.com/sports - Flash video player worked with no
    issues
    www.youtube.com - videos work with no issue
    I'm at a loss as to why this isn't working and I need the
    Flash player for an online course I started on Saturday. When I log
    on to that site it tells me that I don't have the current version
    of Flash installed either.
    Any help would be great!!!

    Mknmuzic:
    I spoke with the Tech support for my school and they said it
    was a known issue for them that has crept up in the last few weeks.
    Their solution was to uninstall Flash using the uninstaller from
    the Adobe website, download and install Firefox, when Firefox asks
    to keep your existing settings choose NO, then go to the Adobe
    website and install Flash using the Firefox browser. I was rolling
    my eyes the whole time they told me this because I wasted so much
    time yesterday, but I'm happy to say this worked perfectly. All the
    sites I listed that were not working are currently working with
    Firefox.
    Hopefully there is a fix for the IE issue soon.....

  • Otf fonds are installed, but not recognized by Windows XP

    I moved InDesign CS3 to a now notebook (Dell Latitude E6500).
    After a quiet installation, everything looked ok at first glance.
    When opening a document which I worked on yesterday on the old Notebook (Dell Latitude D800, 4 years old), the Myriad Pro font was missing.
    In the Windows fonts directory, the files are there.
    Doubleclicking on such a font brings an errormessage
    C:\Windows\Fonts\MyriadPro-Semiboldit.otf was not a valid font.
    InSDesign CS3 V5.0.4 does not list that fonts.
    all other fonts are listed and are working.
    I tried something like installing fonts manually, reinstalling InDesign, install the latest graphicdriver but nothing helped.
    Currently I am unable to work with Indesign on that notebook.

    The problem is solved now.
    On installing Linotype fonts I had the same problem,
    so it could not be on Adobes side.
    Finally it turned out that Dell's graphic drivers for that notebook are malfunctioning.
    Interestingly I found this information on a user forum at Dell's homepage. That entry was more than 4 weeks old but Dell still allows you to download just one graphicdriver which is not working properly.
    Maybe others have the same problem, they should download the driver 178.08 from the website www.laptopvideo2go.com.

  • Flash player shows as installed but will not work and is not recognized by anything including adobe

    I hve installed flash player(several times) and it will not work.  programs using it tell me to install it...but it IS..I can see it in my programs list.  I have tried ev everything in adobes suggestions.  none work.  I cannnot acess my Exfintiy or any games on Facebook.  This stipid program has screwed up everything!!  All of which worked last week!!  How do I fix this?

    What OS?
    What browser?

  • Flash Player 10.1 installed, but not working in any browser, or showing up on C:

    I recently updated my flash player, however since then, websites requiring flash do not seem to fully load. However, it should also be noted that there is no notification indicating I need to install the software. Sites such as youtube will load, but fail to display the video I want to view, and showing only a black box. Also, sites I need for my HSC preparation are not working, such as the Board of Studies Online Multiple Choice, and Maths Online. The web page will load, indicating "done" in the bottom left corner of the screen, but the screen will be white.
    I have tried the following:
    un-installing, and re-installing (numerous times)
    Restarting the system after both un-installing and re-installing
    Checking all mentioned websites on three browsers --> Firefox 3.5.11, IE 8, Google Chrome. All presented the same outcome: blank pages etc.
    Ensuring that flash was enabled in all above browsers
    My operating system is 32 bit; Vista (Have checked this file--  C:/Windows/System32/Adobe -- and found that the flash player files are absent despite being 'told' it has successfully installed. After which the 'movie'/'f' symbol does not show up in the installation check online)
    I assume all the above browsers are 32bit as well, however I'm not sure how to check this.
    Please help... I have been searching forums for hours and trying various methods to attempt to fix the problem myself, but have been unsuccessful. It has become increasingly frustrating with the approaching HSC only a couple of weeks away !

    There is no flashinstall.log file in that folder. There is a FlashInstall file that opens in Notepad when I click on it.  The contents of that file are below.  Does this give you any clue as to what is wrong?  It is WAY beyond my techincal competence.

  • Flash Player installed but not recognized

    I have been prompted to install Flash Player 11 on Amazon.  I attempted to install it from your website.  After following all instructions, it says that Flash Player 11 was successfully installed.  However, when I go back to Amazon (or any other site that plays video) it says that I need Flash Player 11 as if I never installed it!  I tried uninstalling Flash Player using your uninstall function from your website, then attempted to install Flash Player again with the same results:  it says that Flash Player was installed correctly, but nothing seems to recognize it when I try to play video.  Please help!

  • Flash Player Correct and Installed but not working

    Hi,
    I've got the 64bit Windows 8.1 and the version 15 of the flash player.  I've followed all the steps and can not access anything that requires a flash player.  I've checked I've got the latest update, I've enabled the shockwave thing and deactivated activeX, I can see the clouds moving in the animation but I can not access any apps like Candy Crush or Reading Eggs.
    Any ideas what I can do please?  It was working yesterday lunchtime but seemed to stop sometime during the afternoon.  Thought following all the steps again and restarting would correct it but nothing.
    Thanks

    When I try to open a document, I keep getting a message saying I need to install the latest edition.  I have it, and it is installed...... Does anyone know what's going on, or how to fix it???

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • HT3775 Hi, my mac which is on 10.7.5 osx. but when ever i insert any mpeg/avi video cd it shows the file format not recognized. i am fed up of this. plz somebody help me. what should i do now.

    hi,
              i am using 10.7.5 lion there are a lot of problems in this OS.
    like most of the programs quit's unexpectedly. some programs does not work on it. like adobe cs5 is not working. everytime time when i do click on adobe cs 5 icon it shows a message "To open “Adobe Photoshop CS5,” you need to install a Java SE 6 runtime, but you are not connected to the Internet.To install a Java SE 6 runtime later, open “Adobe Photoshop CS5” again" while i always remain connected on the net.
    2. when ever i insert an avi or mpeg video disk it shows the file format not recognized. to **** with this macbook pro n its 10.7.5 lion. the same disk works/runs on windows on windows systems.
    plz somebody help me what should i do now.
    [email protected]

    it sounds like a fualty installation of Lion, this may happen from time to time.
    The best thing to do in this situation is to reinstall Lion. You will not loose anything doing this, but you should always keep back ups of your information.
    http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    basically hold Cmd+R on boot..
    first go to disk utility, verify and repair your disks and permissions. Exit out of Disk utility and then go directly to "reinstall Lion"
    choose that and let it reinstall.
    Adobe CS6 does need Java to run.
    To play your movies you might need to get an application called VLC. VLC is a free app and will play most videos and music files you throw into it.

    you have a 64bit intel mac, so get the one for that.
