I have iMac (Mavericks).  I could no longer view CNN video clips after installing Adobe Flash Player update

Other users and guest account could still view the CNN clips but I can view the Ads and then just a black screen?  Any suggestions ?

I uninstalled version 13 and installed the version 12 as they suggested.  Did not work.
On my computer now I have three accounts.
1.  Mine - Flash Player version 13 originally worked but after updating (as was suggested by onscreen prompt) it did not work with Safari.  Uninstalling and reinstalling Flash Playaer version 12 also did not work.
2.  Second computer user can still see CNN video clips in Safari.  'This user did NOT install the update to version 13.
3.  Guest accoount still can see CNN video clips in Safari.
Any suggestions how to get back to the original configuration on my account.  Unfortunately, I did not know about Time Machine and did not have it set up (have subsequently tried to set it up but cannot seem to be able to select a backup disk).
Any suggestions appreciated.

  • I have firefox 3.6.12 and every time it asks me to instal adobe flash player it gets to a screen that tells me that it will be installed when the conflicting application firefox is closed

    Once I have closed firefox it will load the latest version of flash player but this will turn up in the internet explorer software but will not load the plu in into firefox which is my preferred browser. Hence all programs requiring this send me into a loop of frustration.

    There are two versions of Flash, one for IE ''(the ActiveX version)'' and one for all other browsers, the Plugin version. You need to install the Plugin version, in addition to the ActiveX version - both should appear in Add / Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    { Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

  • Taleo users have problems opening documents after installing Adobe Flash player 13.0.0.214

    Since the release of the newest version of flash, 13.0.0.214 many Taleo users can login but cannot view documents in the Taleo system.  When they click on a document, it does not open.  The last version which worked was 13.0.0.206,  Is a fix available for this problem?

    What does that mean?  Adobe is the name of the company that maintains hundreds of softwares, each has a distinct name.
    What is the file type of these documents?

  • I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image".  I don't know what this is and I cannot see anything that requires Flash Player.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image".  I don't know what that is, but I cannot view anything that requires flash player.  What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for your help, but that didn't do any good either.  I have been double clicking from the download files, double clicking on the "install adobe flash player", closing the anti virus, closing Safari, watching the install progress and clicking finish.  It indicates that "flash player" is installed, but every time I try to view something requiring flash player, it tells me I must download it.  It shows up in the "system preference"  and from there I can make some changes, but it still won't let me view anything requiring "flash player".   It does not show up in my apps like Adobe Reader does.  It shows up in the "downloaded files" section of "Finder".  I'm getting really perplexed over my inability to get this right.

  • How can I install Adobe flash player on my Mac using Safari OR Chrome? I have gone through every step on all of the help pages. The installation process always stops with the black box that briefly says, "Retrieving Install . . . ", then nothing.

    I have followed every step in the various help pages I was directed to when troubleshooting the inability to install Adobe Flash Player on my Mac using either Safari or Chrome. Everything has failed. I always get the black box that says briefly, "Retrieving instal. . . " and then goes blank. When I close that window, I get the message, "Adobe Flash Player could not be installed." Then it gives some links to follow for troubleshooting. I have followed ALL of the links there and on other help pages, to no avail. I've run into problems installing Adobe before, but it's never been this bad. Would someone please develop another format besides Adobe? Trying to get help from Adobe feels a little like trying to find a building in New York City with no map or GPS. The time required is voluminous, the emotional energy a/k/a frustration is overwhelming, and long before I get anything resolved, I wish the earth would open up and swallow all things Adobe@. Absence that miraculous intervention, I have to figure out what to do next. Does anyone know? Anyone?

    Same question, same answer: use the offline installer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

  • Really? Again? "The user does not have sufficient privileges to install Adobe Flash Player"

    My browser is firefox.
    "The user does not have sufficient privileges to install Adobe Flash Player" is the incessant problem I've had many times updating Flash.
    Come on guys, this is getting beyond ridiculous. The install always stops at 55% exactly, and never completes, leaving me to abandon Firefox for Chrome. I mucked about the last half a dozen times this happened during the update and just by sheer accident it managed to install, but it's been 2 hours of similar mucking about and I'm now getting nowhere.
    This has been a persistent problem and affected many firefox users for years now, as I've seen both by my own experience and by searching google. Isn't there a way you all can provide a single SIMPLIFIED solution to this issue, either by coordinating with firefox or by providing a Firefox "unique" installer? Really it's too infuriating.
    Anyway, before anyone asks, yes I'm logged on as the admin, and yes I've run the installer "as the admin" by right clicking. I've also gone ahead and completely uninstalled flash (and emptied the folders as requested in other threads here) and reinstalled, only to watch the progress bar halt at 55% as per usual and leave me clicking that stupid Chrome icon to have a working flash program.
    Honestly folks, why, after years, does this continue to be a persistent issue? Fix it for the love of God! Are you lot the guys doing the ObamaCare website or what? We firefox folks are loyal to our browser, and installing new versions of flash on this browser is an unnecessary bloody pain in the you know what.
    Sorry for the visible frustration, but if someone could please provide a universal working solution I wouldn't need to be on here whinging and moaning.

    I have had the same problem, but found that doing it this way, eradicated the issue for me-
    I am no computer expert and have experimented over time until i found what has worked for myself. 
    I hope this helps others to resolve this problem.
                                                If you are unsure, then please get somebody that has an idea what they are doing to prevent any accidental deletion of system files!!!!!!!
    This is a Microsoft windows 7 PC, not Apple Mac.
    slightly lengthy, but has stopped me pulling hairs out and stopped swearing at the computer.
    Allowed for me to open e learning that needed adobe to continue with learning.
    Firstly:
    Download the current uninstallerUninstaller for Windows
    Close all browser windows and run the uninstaller
    Restart Windows.
    Delete all remaining files and folders located in the following directories. (these directories are probably hidden away from sight)
        (tip: copy and paste ONE of these paths into the path/search bar in an Explorer window)
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash (if you are using a 64-bit system)
    which should then display a white page with a top line in bold letters saying something like:-
    "Index of C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\" as shown below:
    This INFORMATION is only needed for the location as to where these files are hidden so DO NOT !!!!! click on any of the folders within this browser, as they will download into the download folder and cause more problems.
    THIS WILL SHOW  WHERE THE FOLDERS ARE HIDING WITHIN THE COMPUTER ITSELF, BUT THEY ARE PROBABLY HIDDEN, UNTIL YOU UNHIDE THE FOLDER(S) THAT YOU NEED.
    MINIMIZE THIS SCREEN TO ONE HALF OF THE SCREEN, AND HAVE THE FOLDER OF THE COMPUTER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCREEN, SO THAT YOU CAN FOLLOW WITHOUT HAVING TO REMEMBER WHAT IS NEEDED TO BE DONE NEXT
    Secondly:
    Go onto DESKTOP
    double click on computer
    then double click on "C"
    go to organize on top left corner under backwards arrow,
    click on "folder and search options"
    click on "view" tab,
    look for heading "Hidden files and folders"
    click on "show hidden files, folders, and drives"
    click "Apply"
    CLICK "OK"
    Most folders will be a bright yellow folder, whereas the hidden folders that you have now made reappear will be a shaded yellow.
    You should still have the operating system IDE (C) folder open.
    Thirdly:
    Look for:
    Open folder "Windows"
    Open Folder "System32"
    Find Folder "Macromed"
    Right Click on folder and look down for "Delete" left click which will then put the folder into the waste basket on the computer.
    Empty the wastebin if it is on desktop by right clicking and choosing "Empty Recycle Bin"
    close all explorer/Google pages.
    then repeat the process as near top of page from Computer --> C Drive --> all the way to
    Hidden files and folders
    Forthly:
    THEN !!!!!
    click on "DON'T show hidden files, folders, or drives"
    click "apply"
    click "OK"
                                       THAT WILL HIDE THE SYSTEM FOLDERS
    Fifthly:
    CLOSE ANY FOLDER OR BROWSER ON THE  COMPUTER SO THAT YOU ARE BACK TO THE DESKTOP.
    FINALLY:
    OPEN BROWSER
    YOU SHOULD THEN BE ALLOWED  TO INSTALL ADOBE WHEN OPENING A FRESH BROWSER

  • I have a new mini ipad and need to install Adobe Flash Player on it in order to use certain items on the internet.  Can Adobe Flash Player be installed an used on my ipad??

    I have my first ipad.  It is the mini version.  I'm trying to go to certain sites on the internet that tell me I need to update or install Adobe Flash Player. When I try to down load Adobe Flash Player I get a message saying "this device does not support Adobe Flash Player".   Can I not use Adobe Flash Player on my ipad like I do on my computers and my iphone???

    You can't install flash player on your iPad, nor on your iPhone - it's not supported on iOS devices, and as Adobe have stopped development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

    Hi,
    To change your password you will need to open System Preferences, then open Users & Groups, click on Change Password.  Change your password to a temporary one, then when you have finished you do the same procedure to change it back, by typing in the temp password then leaving the new password blank.  Hope this helps.
