New flash player not working for all users

I have Flash 10.0.22.87 installed on a freshly built Citrix 4.5 PS. When the administrator is signed in, everything works just fine. When my users sign in, they navigate to a webpage that requires flash and it either tells them that Flash is not installed or it prompts them to install (but does nothing when you tell it to).
Did flash player become profile specific with this new release? I have 10.0.12.36 and 9.0.115.0 on my other Citrix servers and they work without issue for all users. I've tried uninstalling with the utility I downloaded from adobe.com and re-installing with the offline activeX control. I've played with the security settings opening thing wide open and it still does not work. There is no different software between the problem server and the other Citrix servers other than this version of Flash.
Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance

I am experiencing the same problem on my LAN. Administrator account the app works fine, end users sign in with non admin accounts and it will not work.
I spent some time reading online and found the following instructions on the NET. I tried them and I thought it worked because I was able to log on as a non admin user test account and the flash player worked just fine.
Log in as Admin
2. Download the following zip file from here:
www.supportflash.com/reset_all.zip
3. Unzip this folder onto your desktop.
4. Drag both files ‘reset_min_all.cmd’ and
‘subinacl.exe’ to your
desktop.
5. Run the reset_min_all.cmd file.
6. It will open a DOS like terminal and start
running through registry
keys.
7. When it is finished it will say “press any key
to continue”.
8. At this point you can install the latest Flash
Player:
for Internet Explorer:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ts/documents/tn_19166/Install_F
lash_Player_9_ActiveX.zip
other browsers:
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
9. Check that Flash Player is working for the
Admin.
10. Check that Flash Player is working as the
other 2 users.
I hope this information helps. Feel free to reply
if you need further
assistance on the issue discussed here or file
a new case if you want to
report a new issue in the Support Portal:
I also found 6 different versions of Version 8 that supposedly does not require Admin priveleges but it does. Back to the drawing board.

Resolve installed Flash player not excuted for all the Vista users on my PC?

I have a Windows Vista 32-bits system.
I have created 2 admin and 2 standard users.
Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) 32 bit is installed but also Chrome and Firfox are used.
For 1 admin user Flash works fine when accessing a site in IE9 that requires Flash.
For the other users, including the admin user, IE9 must be run "as adminstrator" by specifically choosing that option.
If not run "as administrator" IE9 states that Flash needs to be installed. That either leeds to Flash player not being installed (error is that it is already installed) or that after a succesful installation the problem simply occurs again (and again and again ...)
I want the standard users on the pc to be able to navigate to trusted sites without running IE9 in "as adminstrator" mode.
What do I need to do?
Can I set Adobe Flash player to be available for all the users for Vista and IE9?
Do I need to alter registry settings manually?
If yes - how and which?
Thanks in advance.

Chris,
Thanks for the reply but unfortunately it does not resolve the problem.
Other users (including the other system administrator) still need to run IE as administrator.
When in my sysadmin account the shortcuts for other users to a URL requiring Flash and using IE9 execute fine GRRRRRRR.
This is very frustrating.
On my pc Chrome aand Modzilla have no problems.
The childrens protective software I have however is based on IE.
Do you have any more suggestions?
My alternative is to downgrade IE9 to IE8 or 7 but that is also not an easy exercise ...
Thanks in advance for any input.

Flash player not working with all programs

Hi, I'm having trouble with flash player not being recognized by certain player apps... On Facebook when there is a video showing on my newsfeed it just shows three little lines pulsing in the middle but it dosen't play. Now, I can go to the page where the video is and play it but not on my news feed. Also I cannot play Pandora as it tells me I need the latest flash player which I know that I have but it isn't recognizing it. I have uninstalled flash player, reinstalled it .. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it .. I have also refreshed Firefox and it still dosen't work with those particular applications.. I have also gone to plugins and made sure that it shows that it's enabled and all the players are.. I have adobe flash and shockwave installed.. One thing that is curious though is that when I check to see if my flashplayers are updated in my plugins it comes up and tells me that Shockwave is vulnerable and needs to be updated but when I click on it and update it ... It shows that it worked but then it dosen't reflect that in my plugin update... HELP PLZ !! :)

Thank you so much for your help!!! Most appreciative!!! :)

Flash Player not working for Youtube

I have Windows Me (yes im very old school) and am using Internet Explorer and for some reason flash player 9.0 will not work for youtube. I was just on youtube, watching some video, listening to music and it was working perfectly fine. I clicked on another video and got a message that 'javascript might be turned off or I got a old version of flash'. I downloaded flash again and youtube still will not work. The weird thing is if I go onto different video websites, I can get videos to work, just not youtube.
If anyone has any suggestion or things I can do to get youtube to work again, I'd appreciate it a lot. Thanks guys!

I was playing YouTube videos for an hour last night then YT says JavaScript/Flash Player Error. So I installed the new version w/o uninstalling the old one & I'm still getting the same error (in Firefox 3). Then I went to Control Panel in Win XP Pro and uninstalled 2 items of Adobe Flash so there were none left. Rebooted. Reinstalled the new version of Flash Player & I get no improvement. I've griped at YT Help, now I'm griping here. I can see YT videos embedded in MySpace Forums. I can watch the 2 videos in my YT Video Log at full screen even but the HQ/Normal button is missing for some reason). But if I try to play any other YT video, I get the JavaScript/Flash Player error message and no video box. I can hardly navigate around my YT channel at all now. I can't do much of anything but log in, log out and look at two video log videos.

Flash not working for all users XP

I had much trouble downloading and installing flash player.
Finally the install just worked but now the flash player only seems

content. We are usig Windows XP home.

Try upgrading to admin (temporarily) for each account and reinstall Flash Player under each, then set them back to regular user accounts.

Adobe flash player not working for youtube

Hi,
While I was trying to install Adobe Flash Player for Microsoft Internet Explorer, the installation process got stuck half way and I tried to terminate the installation. But I had difficulty even terminating the installation process and IE and my computer crashed together. Normally I use Firefox to surf the internet, however after the computer crashed and when I restarted my computer, Youtube videos just couldn't be played in Firefox. What I have since done was to upgrade Firefox to 3.6.18 and I have uninstalled + reinstalled Adobe Flash Player. However that still doesn't solve the problem. The Youtube webpage only shows a black box with no control boxes. However other websites e.g. Metacafe, which uses Adobe Flash Player to play video files are working perfectly fine. This is highly puzzling to me and very frustrating. Could anyone please help me with it? .
How do I mark this thread as a question?
Now, I was reading other threads and came across 1 suggestion to change the http:// to https:// and now the youtube videos can be played. How amazing :O. But that would mean that everytime I have to manually change the URL to access the video. This is so strange. Any suggestion what has happened? Thanks.

Hi, Since youtube/Google have not responded to the issue, no one knows for sure what their problem is. This is what I found and posted here last night. Then what I found and posted this morning, which you evidently found about the https.
It appears either one or both are being used to try solving the issue. It's been users coming up with these, not youtube nor Google. It effects all browsers, even Chrome. The only one I haven't seen so far is Safari. Flash Player version doesn't matter, nor Operating Systems.
From last night:
YouTube just updated their video player, so the old version could still be cached in your browser causing it to fail. I would suggest rebooting, and if that's already done then make sure your drivers are up to date.
If that does not work make sure you download the new version of flash. Posted3 hours ago
No, I had the exact same problem but it worked the second I cleared my internet cache which could have to do with what another user above said about that.
Go to tools, options, clear recent history, and only check the 'cache' option, clear now, okay, and then refresh or exit it and open it again. I didn't even have to restart my browser. I'm using firefox too, by the way. Good luck! I hope this helped! Posted 2 hours ago
From today 7/7/11:
Now youtube is having major issues as you could read from what I posted. There is nothing wrong with your computer nor Flash Player. Here is what many users are doing in addition to clearing the cache, history etc.
They are using https instead of http. So try it. Here is one that you can check to see if it works. If so, use the https until youtube/google respond.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1RiMHpUi1w
Until we hear from youtube or our own Flash Player Team, since I'm sure they are in touch with youtube, I don't know what else to do.
My guess is, that if youtube changed their video player for the videos, then that would be a factor. Right now it is a wait and see.
Thanks,

Adobe Flash Player not working for Armorgames Dead Zone

I used to play Dead Zone on Armor Games a while ago, when I recently attempted to start again, it will not start. I have followed all the troubleshooting steps provided by both you and Armor Games. I can load the game on facebook but it does not have my save file. I normally use IE and I get stuck loading with this screen if I try to http://i1367.photobucket.com/albums/r786/adam_smiley1/IEArmorGames_zps7ad1f35f.png if I attempt to use FF I get this error instead http://i1367.photobucket.com/albums/r786/adam_smiley1/FFArmorGames_zpsf81f75d4.png. FF will never recognize that I have ANY version of Flash installed in this case. I have also contacted Armor Games Support for this Issue. I do not have troubles with any other game, just this one. Please Assist.

Flash Player not working on other user accounts, only main.

I have this problem everytime Flash updates and have only been able to fix it twice. On a Windows XP SP 2 I have 3 accounts. The main administator, an administator, and a guest account. Flash Player works for the main admin but not for the guest or other administrator. I cant watch videos anywhere on the other two accounts , like youtube or embeded or anything that requires flash and when I try to install it, it says its installed, which it is. I found this problem a while back and favorited it but I lost it unfortunatly and cannot find it again.
I believe all I had to do last time was go into a file and replace a line of code with another and it worked, but since the update it hasnt.
Please and Thank you.

You mention "certain websites" where Flash will not load. Are there pages that do display flash content on these accounts?
You might want to walk through these two FAQ's to see if they help:

Flash player not working for facebook game "resort world"

Windows 7, 64bit
Flash Player ver. WIN 10,1,85,3
I'm having trouble with the specific game on facebook called "resort world", everytime i try to access it, the page just keeps refreshing itself non-stop.
I ran the uninstaller, restarted my computer and installed a fresh copy of the flash player again and I still have the same problem. I've also checked http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and the flash works fine. Also to mention, other games on facebook do work, I have tried this game on internet explorer 32bit as well as 64bit, google chrome and mozilla firefox and they all do the same thing. I have friends with 32bit windows 7 and 64bit windows 7 and the game works just fine. Anyone can help me find a solution to this problem? Thanks

Hi ..
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Now open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
Not delete the Safari cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

Flash Player not working for IE8, FF, Chrome

Hi,
I have Windows XP 32-bit, and I upgraded to flash player 10.
I went to youtube (and various other sites) and tried to watch a video, all I get is a black screen where the video is. It doesn't have the icon where it says "flash player needed"
I have un-installed and re-installed a couple of times. I even went to other browsers but it's all the same. and it is showing up on my programs list.
the files in my C: drive are:
Flash10i.ocx
FlashInstall.log
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.exe
Note: I tried using the Adobe Downloader but it kept saying "SSL not able to connect" or something. This is a laptop issued by my company and I got Flash Player 10 files from our own website as we have to maintain all upgrades.
Thanks.

Hi, Have you tried to turn off the hardware acceleration feature? If not you can go to the Adobe test site and right click on the Flash logo and click on Settings, then on Display Settings to UNcheck H.A.
Then also check the IE manage add ons for Shockwave Flash Object and make sure it is Enabled.
In FF, look in plugins for the Shockwave Flash vs 10.1.82.76 and make sure it is Enabled.
Flash Player is embedded with Chrome, so there shouldn't be any problem with it.
See if that helps.
Thanks,

Exe created with Report Generation toolkit does not work for all users

I created a exicutable with the report generation toolkit and it only works with some of my users. I use microsoft 2007 and anyone that has microsoft 2007 my exe works well. Most of my users that have microsoft 2010 are able to use my program as well. However, there is one user with 2010 and Windows 2007 that cant get my program to work.
Any suggestions for troubleshooting this?
Thanks

The most likely issue is due to the fact that Microsoft changes the ActiveX object model of Office for each version of Office. The Report Generation Toolkit does a pretty good job of handling this, but it is not 100% effective. Search, for example on the "Set Cell Border" function and you will see what I mean. In these cases it's up to you to handle this issue. How you handle it really depends on your situation. For us to provide a more concrete answer you will need to provide further details, such as what toolkit function is "not working" (whatever that means), and who you "users" are. Is this an internal distribution? Are you selling this program? Is this code written for a project with a specific customer?

Flash player not working for games (Win. 7 64-bit)

The Flash Player often doesn't work so that games only show as blank white. I get this on a variaty of websites, typically games and sometimes parts of the Harry Potter official website. However, I have no problems with YouTube. My computer is new and I have never had this problem before on previous computers, but it shouldn't be the computer.

Use this Microsoft Fixit to disable hardware acceleration: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2528233
