I don't have the authority to download Adobe Flash Player. I'm using Microsoft Security Essentials. HOW DO I FIX THIS?????

I go to download this and it goes it install but then gives me error message: don't have authority to download.

Hi Lezotte, are you using this site for the download: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
This page also has a download for the latest player (but I don't know whether it will work any better): https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
Would it be possible to capture a screen shot of the message you're receiving, or give the exact wording (so it's easy to search)? This article has tips on screen shots: [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]] Please delete or blur any sensitive information before attaching the image to your reply post.

  • After I download Adobe Flash Player, YouTube still doesn't work. How do I fix this?

    I just got my MacBook, and I want to watch YouTube videos. I installed Adobe Flash Player, but when I go to the videos, YouTube says that I still need to install Adobe Flash Player. I have done this multiple times, and nothing has happened. Thanks.

    Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility and select your volume and then select Repair Permissions.  Same directions are also in the OS Mac Help Menu.

  • Cannot download adobe flash even after i disable microsoft security essentials. what do you suggest???

    i just got an hp p7 q7 quad desktop. i'm having great difficulty downloading adobe flash player apparently because i'm using firefox as my browser. i disabled microsoft security essentials as instructed, but i'm still unable to download.
    any suggestions???

    I suggest that you download and run the Acrobat Cleaner Tool http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Next download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ - all availabel Reader versions 9.5, 10.1, and 11.0 should run fine on Windows XP.

  • Not responding whenever computer is restarted. I have to uninstall and re-instal Adobe Flash Player every day and it works. How do I fix this?

    It works until I restart the computer. I have tried every suggested fix I can find including:
    Updated - latest version installed
    Re-installed Adblock +
    Drivers up to date
    Acceleration is on
    Reset Firefox
    Malware Bites Pro runs continuous
    Safe Mode
    How do I send the crash reports?

    Basically, the script wrapper solution is: Firefox launcher gets changed to run a script, which in turn starts Firefox and also jumps through whatever hoops you need to fix the problem. Not a pretty way to do things, but if the problem is indeed in zombie processes and/or junk data in local cache, this will do the job. So, instead of running '''''YourAppPath''/firefox.exe''' it would run '''''YourBatchPath''/firefox.bat''' that contains something like this:
    * ''YourAppPath''/firefox.exe
    * [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896683 pskill] -t ''YourFlashPlugin''.exe
    * del ''YourFlashCachePath''/*.*
    Of course, you'll need to do this manually first - take a look with Process Explorer at what processes FF launches and which of them fails to terminate and locate the cache (where Process Explorer / Process Monitor also helps), mop them up and see whether it helps.
    If you're not used to this sort of things, show this message to someone who is, it will take a few minutes to either have it done or disprove my hypothesis about your bug (not likely, as it's rather typical, and FF sometimes manages to half-zombify itself even in Linux).

    Hi..
    Assuming you are using Safari ...
    Quit Safari.
    Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
    Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new >  Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
    Make sure to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
    Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    Now try a video.
    BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

  • I don't have a CD import icon in ITunes therefore, cannot import/playback CD's.  How do I fix this?

    I do not have a CD playback icon in ITunes in the lower left-hand corner.  As a consequence, unable to import music from a CD.  How can I fix this?

    I don't have a CD import icon in the lower left-hand corner either, because there isn't one.
    When you put a CD in your computer's CD drive, iTunes will open up a window such as this;
    and as you can see, Import CD is shown in the top right side. Alternatively, if you have the sidebar showing, you will see this instead:
    but which still has Import CD in the same place as before.

  • HT4623 I have the updated ios6 but my I tunes will not open at all. How can I fix this?

    I don't know how to fix my I tunes I can log onto it on throw the Internet so I know it's the right password. I have the updated ios6 software and have tried everything I can think of. Logging out and turning off the IPad and starting it back up trying to login under the settings/iTunes/login. Still nothing. It states it can't connect when I'm connected to wifi. Please help me resolve this dilemma. Thank you.

    Do you have a mouse you can use to go to System Preferences and check the TrackPad and see that it is pairing and that the replacement batteries are good?  There have been a few users who have had problems with suppossedly new batteries, turned out they actually were not strong enough to pair.  If you cannot use a mouse, try a different set of batteries and see if that resolves the issue.
    If that does not resolve it, take the TrackPad to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs test it to see that it is not defective.

  • On certain websites, I cannot use instant messenger. It comes up as a "connection error". If I use IE8, I do not have this problem... I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash player downloads... what gives?

    When attempting to use an instant messenger on certain websites, I keep getting a "connection error" message.... The IM pops up, it appears to start loading then I get the "connection error".

  • When I watch a YouTube video it won't expand and it says that I don't have h.264 installed, but when I watch it on Chrome it works. How do I fix this?

    I wanted to try the new YouTube HTML5 video player, but when I try to expand a video to like 480p or higher, it just stays the same size and the button won't work. I've installed the DivX codex and after that I thought it would work. To be honest, I didn't try it before installing the codec on Chrome, now that I installed it, it does work. I"m horrible with explaining things, so I hope this is fairly clear. Thanks :D

  • Whenever I press spacebar to playback my video project in final cut pro X, the color wheel pops up and freezes the computer. Doesn't matter what computer I use. Why and how do I fix this?

    Like I said, I'm doing a simple video and have finally made some progress in editing. All of a sudden, when I try to replay the video the color wheel pops up and nothing works. It just keeps spinning and spinning with no end. I end up having to force quit the program. When I restart it the same thing happens. I've tried it on 3 different computers and the results have been the same. I've read that perhaps the software needs to be updated through the mac store, I did that to no avail. I also read that perhaps the preferences for the project/final cut pro need to be reset. I downloaded a program that is supposed to do this for me but it didn't work I also went into Preferences in Final Cut and hit reset under editing tab which also did not work. I"m really frustrated about this and I"m getting paid for this video. This needs to be resolved ASAP.  Thanks in advance for the help: ask any questions.

    Please give complete details of your system and the media and the project properties.
