Site wont' let me download the 64 bit version of adobe flash player

I have windows 7 64 bit, but the site always gives me the 32 bit version of flash player, when I go to check my flash version it says I have windows 7 32 bit, next to the OP system, but I have 64 bit, when I go to the download page of the flash player, on top of it it says "operation system: windows 7 64 bit" but when I press download it gives me the 32 bit version, why is that?

Flash Player is installing both 32 and 64 bit versions for you. The Flash Player control panel will say 32 bit, but that is expected and correct. The question is, do you use Internet Explorer 32 bit or 64 bit? Most use 32 bit, in which case the 32 bit version of Flash Player will be used.
How do I determine what version of Internet Explorer is running?
Thanks,
Chris

Assuming Allan's advice is not correct, and you do run the installer, I think I've heard of that problem and it involves removing the old Flash plug-ins, then install the new version. I don't use it so I don't know what they are called, but will be the /Library/Internet Plug-ins folder.
You can go here and enable HTML5 in YouTube so you don't have to use Flash: http://www.youtube.com/html5
Most(?) of the content is HTML5, but you may run into videos where you still need Flash.

I tried playing a you tube video, but received a message prompt to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. The link to Adobe stated that there are issues with MAC OS X 10.7 and Flash Player 10.3. The new version did not download. Any Suggestion

Why won't firefox crashes when I try to download the latest version of adobe flash player ?

When I tried to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (10.1.85.3), nothing happened. Then something popped up....

(click it)
when I clicked the "install missing plugins," this popped up...

I was a little confused because it was totally different from what the instructions said

so I decided to click the "manual" button and a download page to download a file named "Gp" popped. Seeing that I just clicked cancel then suddenly my computer froze. I tried going to the adobe download page again and it happens all over again. Please Help Me :(

After trying everything else, this worked for me
OS X.6.8

After I downloaded the new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262, I can't seem to play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger.

It could be a coincidence but when I upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 I can't seem to play any games on Yahoo Messenger with my friends. I know when I updated for some reason I had to try 3 times before it took it. It shows it's updated. I'm wondering if I have to un-install and re-install it. Also, I never use Internet Explorer 8 but when I went in there to check I found a plug in check link there and it showed over there that Adobe Flash Player needed updating but it was an older version and not the one Foxfire had me update too. Now I'm really confused if this is causing a problem. I have never had to check Internet Explorer for plug ins before. Have always just updated in Foxfire since that's what I use. The Adobe Flash Player seems to play videos okay so not really sure if that's the issue or not. My Java plug-ins have been fine and have been updated awhile ago, so I know it's not that. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Well, after hours of trying to figure it out I gave up and un-installed and re-installed that last verion of Adobe Flash Player and now it seems I can play games again in Messenger. Everything else had been fine just that. I can only figure it was because it was having a hard time updating the first time and took me 3 tries. So even though it said it was installed, apparently it wasn't done correctly.
Though when I couldn't figure out what was wrong at first I looked and checked to see all the things were enabled that were supposed to be and they were.
I even tried to go to the Adobe site and download the last version I had and couldn't find it. Kept coming up with the new version. Others said if you download a particular older version it may not have all the security features in it.
This really gets to be a bit much, especially when you're by yourself and have only a smattering of knowledge of technical things.
Thanks fore responding to my question.

I downloaded the latest version of adobe flash player 2 versions loaded and now it's very slow and the wheel keeps spinning

My computer is running very slow, and the colored wheel keeps spinning causing pages to load slowly. I recently downloaded adobe flash player. It seems 2 versions loaded. Could this be causing the problem? How can I uninstall these programs? Thank you

Adobe Flash Player
Check Flash Version
Adobe strongly recommends that you first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html#main_1 0_4
Follow the instructions closely, such as quitting ALL applications first before installing. Repair permissions and restart your computer after the installation is completed.

I don't have an administrator password to Download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77

I would like to keep FireFox as my browser at work. However the administration will not allow Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 to be upgraded of allowed to run the install program. Why cannot FireFox just include the new Flash Player upgrades?

Why won't the admin allow Flash to be installed? By not updating flash their machine is more at risk to attack.

I keep being asked to download a new version of adobe flash player which i have done so several times but i still can't see videos i.e. face book because it still asks me to download the latest version any ideas ?

when i click on a video say on Facebook i am asked to download the latest version of adobe flash player which i have but it still keeps asking me any ideas ?

You are downloading the Flash installer, which I think itself downloads another installer, which may again download something else that has to run. Adobe's installer is one of the worst pieces of software on the PLANET.
That said, the problem is that you are not actually running the installer and letting it update Flash. Doing so will force you to quit Safari in the process.
Go look for whatever Adobe downloaded to your Downloads folder and run it.

What's the best way to update my Mac with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

I've been getting prompts whenever I look at certain websites to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I'm skeptical as to responding to those prompts. What is the best way to update my Mac Pro with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

You might also want to consider uninstalling Adobe Flash... I currently don't have it installed and haven't needed to install it. Most websites are now coded in HTML 5 so that the iOS devices can actually visit them. I can still watch YouTube videos et al. About the only thing I can't do is play Flash games... but they're a resource hog anyways.
Try going without for a day or two and see just how many sites you visit no longer require it. A lot of people keep it installed out of habit, not out of necessity. If you have Flash installed, visit a site and it's out of date, it will tell you to update your Flash. What it won't do is tell you is that had Flash not been installed, it would have used the HTML 5 code instead. Think about it... if an iOS device can't run Flash at all... it can't visit this site if it were written only to use Flash. What site would eliminate such a huge portion of their market base? You'd be surprised at how many sites use HTML 5. Uninstall Flash and see for yourself.

In eBay & YouTube, I get the message to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player; I have gone through the download and installation procedure several times, but still get the same message - why can't I install the latest version on Firefox?

In eBay, I was trying to upload pictures when I got this message: "You need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to use the standard picture uploader.
Download and install the latest version from Adobe before continuing."
In YouTube, when trying to watch a video, I got this message: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
I have gone through the procedure for downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, but still get the same messages when I reopen Firefox and revisit these sites.
There does not seem to be the same problem with Safari, which runs the latest version of Adobe Flash Player with no trouble.
I am using an iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.6.7.

You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.
*http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.
