Flash will not install

I have been trying to install adobe flash. First instructions were to uninstall and previous versions. I did that and now Flash will not install. It says that gplay is interfering and can not down load. I dont even know what gplay is, were do I find it, what does it do, and how do I make it go away to get Flash.
I have been working on this for a month. I downloaded Chrome and that is working fine because it has Flash with it, but I deleted flash from my computer and AOL is my internet provider and I cant play videos and such from my mail.
Help, I am so frustrated.
Cindy

Hi,
Which operating system is your computer running on?
If you are using Windows, got to the Task Manager and click on the Processes tab.
Then click on "Show Processes from all users".
In the list of processes, look for "gplay.exe". Select it and click on End Process.
Try downloading and installing Flash Player after that.

YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES - FLASH WILL NOT INSTALL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

Does anyone from Adobe support read this forum??? Adobe Flash will NOT install on a Mac. It hangs at either 95% or 97% depending on which download link is followed. IT WILL NOT FINISH THE INSTALL. I have uninstalled and tried SIX installs - back to back - and it stalls. IT WILL NOT COMPLETE THE INSTALL. You have been aware of this problem for months and have not fixed the installer. I BOUGHT A MAC, NOT ADOBE FLASH, but I am forced to use it. SO FIX IT!!!!!!

It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
So what to do, what to do.
Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
So what you will have to do is this:
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files.

Adobe Flash will not Run

I have gone through all the forums and installed and uninstalled flash 3 times. I have gone through the active-x control and still now luck...it wont run although its showing as a successful install. I am running Windows 7 Home Edition with IE 9 version 9.0.8112, 64 bit operating system with 4.00 RAM.

Flash will not open .otf font

I just installed Myriad Pro and flash will not open the font.
When I go to my fonts folder and double click on the file it says
that its not a valid file and cannot open a .otf. Ive tried to
rename the file to a .tff but it doesnt work.
Please help this is really aggrevating.
Thanks!

Some fonts simply do not work in Flash. I tried to search the
forum to show you other posts of users who have had problems with
Myriad Pro but this seems to be one of those days that the Adobe
forum decides to be finicky. I thinkg what jedaniel was trying to
say was to see if you can find a true type equivalent of Myriad to
see if that will work. The extension would then be "ttf".
Are you on a Mac or PC? If you have one at your disposal, you
may try using a font conversion app.

Light on iphone4 flash will not turn off even when phone is powered down, now it is overheated and says not usable till cooled, but it won't cool. I'm afraid it will start a fire.

light on iphone4 flash will not turn off even when phone is powered down, now it is overheated and says not usable till cooled, but it won't cool. I'm afraid it will start a fire. Aside from breaking it, putting in in a metal pail in the yard, or putting it in a bucket of water, what can be done to keep it from setting a fire. It is so hot it burns my skin if i touch it, so bright, it hurts to look at, so hot there is now a warning that it is not usable till it cools down, but there is no way to cool it down.

more info, this happened after update to 7.0.2, and also wifi will no longer turn on since update. I took it in to apple store, it had one month left on warrenty, and they said that it would have had to get wet for this to happen. I thought that maybe it got wet through my jeans pocket in the rain or something so I didn't pursue it. Now of course, it is out of warranty by a month.

Canon 580EX Flash will not fire. Being shot on a Canon 5D Mark III.

The light does not start out green and stays red on the 580EX Flash. It doesn't even go into a sleep mode when not activated for a length of time. Fresh batteries does not make a difference. It will allow me to change settings but it won't fire. The infra-red displays it's test light but the flash will not discharge even when it demands it. It is not on slave or wireless settings. Nothing makes the flash go off, even the test flash.

First, the red light on the flash indicates it's ready to fire. It goes off when the flash is recycling.
That "pilot" light also is a test button... Turn the flash on and as soon as it lights up, press it. If the flash fires, then it's likely the flash is fine.
Next, check in your camera menu... is Flash Firing (which might be in a Flash Setup group on a later camera model) set to "enabled"? Silly little thing, I know... but it happens. Don't ask me how I know!
Also check the flash is fully mounted in the hot shoe. The locking lever will not go all the way to the latched position, if the flash isn't fully seated in the shoe. The locking lever actuates a small pin on the flash's foot, that fits into a corresponding hole in the hot shoe, both to insure the flash is fully in place and to secure it there.
If all the above checks out okay, another possibility is the camera's exposure mode. Now, personally I don't use them so can't say for certain, but assuming your camera even has them, maybe some of the more automated "scene modes" such as the "running man" for sports, etc. prevent the flash from firing.
Again, I'm not certain how the flash will perform in those modes... But you should use Av, Tv, P or M to test the flash anyway. In the auto exposure modes Av, Tv and P, the flash will fire at reduced output, as FILL light. In the manual M mode, it will fire FULL, as the main light source. Often when firing as fill with reduced output the red light of the flash doesn't go out with a single shot... I often can get 2 or 3 pops out of it before the light goes out and the flash goes into recycle mode for a few seconds.
Is it possible the flash actually is firing, but as fill so it's not a very strong output and it doen't need to go into recycle mode? You might not see the flash, if it's at reduced power and you have your eye to the viewfinder (which blacks out momentarily during the short duration of the exposure). Usually you hear the flash "pop", but if shooting somewhere with a lot of background noise, might not even be able to hear that.
Finally, are you trying to use the flash wirelessly? If so, then there are a number of possibilities. First, the flash needs to be set as "slave". Next, the camera's on-board flash needs to be popped up to act as the controller. Also, the flash and camera need to be set to a matching channel or group. Also, the flash may need to be rotated so that the red pane on the front is facing the camera. Plus wireless flash control is optical, so is "line-of-sight" only. And it's reach is rather limited.
Some of these suggestions may have already occured to you. If so, great! I don't know your level of experience with the flash or what camera you are using, so am just throwing out possibilities that occur to me. I hope this helps!

Flash will not publish + FLV question

Hello,
I am currently building a game in Flash CS4, but am stuck due to a Flash problem. I have searched the forums for a sollution, but have yet to find one.
The Problem:
Adobe Flash will not export, or publish my .FLA file, nor will it create a .SWF at the chosen destination under the publish settings. Whenever I try to export/publish my .FLA, the export/publish pop-up window opens, and the progress bar runs all the way through. Once that is done, the window which normally appears immediately afterwards, in order to test the flash, does not appear.
Furthermore, Flash seems to have deleted the .SWF, and any other files I wish to publish the moment the publish/export process is completed.
The strange thing about this problem is that I may be lucky and have Flash actually export and publish correctly on its first go. However, when I try again, it won’t publish/export until I restart flash.
This problem happened on three separate windows machines (Vista and 7) under both Flash CS4 and CS5.
Note:
I have discovered that this problem may be related to the many embedded FLV video clips I have created for the game’s character animations (6+ characters with 30 very short animations each).
These animations were rendered in a 3D CG software, which were then edited in Adobe After Effects, and exported as .FLVs for use in Flash.
Oddly enough, once I’ve deleted all the embedded FLV clips from the library, Flash will once again publish and export. This is not an acceptable solution to my problem, however. I already searched for any corrupted FLV files, but could not find any.
My questions are:
1. What can I do to make Flash publish/export once again, while having my embedded .FLV clips within the library? Is there something I am over-looking, or any settings I must change in Flash?
2. Which settings (in Adobe After Effects) are best to export .FLVs for use in flash?
3. If I cannot use FLVs, what other options do I have, in order to use my CG animations in Flash? I tried PNG sequences, but Flash complains about low memory, and crashes (FLVs were working great up until now).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I've also experienced problems with the Publish process dropping out and failing to complete - no error messages in the Output pane or Compiler errors, just a total hang of the Publish status bar (and no published files...).
I can't say I've pinpointed the exact cause of this, but it may be related to having all objects on the Stage locked (possibly when they are not placed in the main canvas area).
Adding a new layer and creating a new object seems to help. If the publish process (including TestScene) has stalled, restart Flash and reload the movie...
Hope that helps! It's kinda scary watching that Publish bar disappear into nothingness when you've got literally hours/minutes/seconds left to get the thing built and running :-)

Flash Will Not Open (but the rest of CS4 will)

Hello all,
I bought CS4 Design Premium back in October 2008 with my new MacBook Pro. While I have been using Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop for some time, I am just now wanting to get into Flash.
The problem is that Flash will not open. I get the entry window that asks me to choose what type of Flash file I would like to start, but no matter what I choose the windows shut down and I get a crash report (that is quite long).
Can someone please shed some light on why this is happening?
Thank you all in advance for your help with this!
Peace,
Jason

Camera flash will not shut off

My camera flash will not shut off. Have rebooted and totally restored as new phone. Stays on even when phone is powered off.
May be coincidental, but it did not start until after 7.1.1 update.

Hi,
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:
