Solved the Adobe 10 flashplayer Install/Use Problem!

Read someone else's responses to close everything, then go to:
http://adobe.com/go/tn_14157
Run the uninstall.
Then was advised to start in safe mode by going to:
start
run
iexplore -extoff
HOWEVER:  I could not then perform the next action, so I skipped the above step of working in safemode, and just opened Internet Explorer regularly.
Went to:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
For some reason, it worked this time.  The "graphics movie" on the flashwave site that is supposed to show up actually showed up this time.  My computer did not show that I had a previous version of Adobe Flashplayer, although I think I probably did.  The folder showed empty and it did not show up anywhere.  I have probably downloaded and installed this a dozen times in the past week or so and it wasn't working.  Very frustrating.  I also found that I had the same problem with Adobe Reader 8 version.  Tried many many many times to get it to work and it wouldn't.  My old 6 version worked just fine, so after all the frustration finally just deleted the 8 upgrade and kept using the 6 version until the 9 came out, which works fine.
Can't really imagine it is so much everyone's operating sysems or settings when it seems to be only Adobe that causes these problems!
Hope this helps someone!

I HAVE SHOCKWAVE VER 10
WHATEVER THE MOVIE  OR FLASH f COMES UP AND SAYS

  • 2 medical softwares often can't open pdf, just after the adobe reader install but IExplorer succeded

    Hello,
    We have two softwares ( medical application) which open pdf via adobe reader XI.
    Theses softwares often can't open pdf, just after the adobe reader install( using adobeArCleaner+Customisation Wizard XI).
    At this point Internet Explorer is ok to open pdf with adobe reader...
    We have to launch manually adobe reader once on the computer to make the two applications to manage openning pdf
    Launching adobe reader seems to finish the installation...
    Did the editors have to put an "option" when they open pdf ( to act like Internet Explorer...) ?
    Thanks

    I am very glad to have a so rapid answered!
    Sorry I was not precise...
    When the file should open,
    for one application an error is happening,
    for the other application which is a "web" application, an other window ( not "web") opens with adobe reader and the pdf document ( the expected behavior is to open adobe reader and the pdf file in the web window already opened)
    I think that the file association is ok, if we double clik on a pdf, adobe reader is opening and then the file is opening  in adobe reader window...
    If I open Internet Explorer and I search for a pdf on the web, It is openning in the same window web.
    But something seems not finish for the medical softwares...

  • Did the Adobe download & install complete on my laptop

    did the adobe download & install complete on my laptop? How do I activate it?  I was notified during the installation that I had to close explorer to let the installation finish. After that I was called away from my laptop (which I left on). There was a normal screen when I returned. I'm concerned I may have missed important info/ instructions.

    I have little experience on my laptop.  It seems to be working, though at times when I try to watch a news story, it'll either play (stopping often) or tell me I need to get the flashplayer to continue. 
       I'm on a Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop, using Windows 7 Home Premium.

    I have adobe reader installed on my Macbook Pro and also Adobe flashplayer installed. I am not anble to see any video from the net, news feeds, or anything like that on my computer. I cannot print off certificates that I need all it does when I attempt to print the certificate is that it shows that it is loading and comes back and tells me there was an error in loading the information. I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks

  • How to watch flash based videos without adobe flash installed using Safari

    How do I watch flash based videos without adobe flash installed using Safari?

    Once you have Chrome installed, activate the Develop menu in Safari (go to Safari Preferences > Advanced > Show Develop Menu). You then will see under the Develop menu the Open Page With option and Chrome will be listed there.
    So each time you open a page with Safari requiring Flash, you use that menu option to open the same page in Chrome.

  • I can't install the adobe flashplayer

    Hi, you need to state you computer info, Operating system and browser and version info.
    Then go to this test site and let me know if you can see the Flash logo animate(spin) and what version of Flash Player is displayed.

  • Have reloaded my MacPro 2008- can't locate the Adobe Flashplayer for this model .. 10.5.8

    Folks, I am just short of losing my mind. Have had to go to the Genius Bar at the ABQ Apple store (after much reluctance). The reinstalled my system for me due to problems. Have spent the day getting things set up but I cannot figure out how to install the 'right' Adobe Flashplayer. Everything is sayng I don't have the right system, etc. What baffles me is that the Flashlayer was on here and worked.
    So .. what Adobe flashplayer do I need, where to find it, etc. Also, I realize that it would help to install an updated  system. Was told that I had to buy the first stage on line ($20) and they would install the next stage. 10.5.8 is the Leopard, right? What is next and then what after that?
    All of this is above my pay scale (so to speak) and I could really use and will appreciate the feedback.
    Thanks so much.

    1. Click here and download the correct version of Flash, or see below.
    2. The next step is to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store; after that, the computer can be updated to 10.6.8 for free. Upgrading the Mac to 10.6 will also allow the current version of Flash to be installed.

  • Is the Adobe ID I use when entering my serial number tied to my software?

    Related to the Adobe account it asks to login with, is this account tied to the installed product long term?  I ask because I do not want to embed my own ID and be forced to eternally support the machine every time it needs work.  I need to be able to set this up so anyone in our I.S. department can support the software, patch, etc.
    I tried asking this of the chat support group but after hours and two transferred sessions, I ran out of time yesterday.  It sounds like you know what you're talking about, so I am hopeful that this is a better route to a real answer.

    Excellent!  Thank you very much, sir.  I just didn't want to make an uninformed choice that ended up haunting us for the next year.  I was able to successfully serialize the software and it seems to work perfectly without requiring that ID to be logged in my other users on the PC (so support can install it without the user present using the support tech's login and the end user can use it under their personal login).

  • Can't Solve the "Too Many Clients Tasks" Problem

    Hello All ,
    I am creating a java desktop application , and i keep getting this error message:
    [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Too many client tasks.
    Any way ,i googled for this error and i found that because i creates many connections with database "more than 10 i think " , and that why i get this error message ..
    The problem is that i do not know how to solve it , i tried to close the connections and i still getting the same error
    I searched this forum , and someone suggest to close the connections and the statements and the resultset , but still not working
    this is the code
    public class Database_Mangement {
        private String User_ID;
        private String  user_name;
        private String password;
        private Admin_Connection c;
        private Connection conn;
        private Connection uni_conn;
        private ArrayList<Admin_TableEntry> data;
        public Database_Mangement() throws SQLException
          conn = null;
          uni_conn = null;
          conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:smart_database");// Connect with database no 1 through ODBC
          uni_conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:uni_database");//Connect with database no 2 through ODBC
          data = new ArrayList<Admin_TableEntry>();
         ArrayList<Admin_TableEntry> getInformation(int type)throws SQLException
             Statement stm = null;
             ResultSet getInfo = null;
           try{
             //get User Information
                if(type==1)
                     stm = conn.createStatement();
                    String temp;
                    temp = "select * from Students";
                    getInfo = stm.executeQuery(temp);
                else if(type==2)
                     stm = uni_conn.createStatement();
                    String temp;
                    temp = "select * from Students";
                    getInfo = stm.executeQuery(temp);
                 while(getInfo.next())
                      Admin_TableEntry tempclass = new Admin_TableEntry();
                      if(type==1)
                      {tempclass.ID = getInfo.getString("Student_ID");
                       tempclass.Name =getInfo.getString("Student_Name");
                       tempclass.balance=getInfo.getString("Student_Balance");}
                      else if(type==2)
                          tempclass.ID =getInfo.getString("Student_ID");
                          tempclass.Name = getInfo.getString("First_Name");
                          tempclass.Last_Name =getInfo.getString("Last_Name");
                          tempclass.haveaccount=getInfo.getBoolean("Have_SmartCard");
                       data.add(tempclass);
    catch(Exception e)
    {System.out.println(e.getMessage();}
    finally
         conn.close();
         uni_conn.close();
        stm.close();
    //    getInfo.close();  Please note that i get an error message when i try to close the ResultSet
    //and this is the error message
    // Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLException: ResultSet is closed
                   return data;
    }and thank you for your time..

    Thanks , but it only solved the ResultSet.close() problem ,
    i am still getting the Too Many Clients error
    and i am closing every connection i created after the end of every function .
    i think i will switch to SQl server 2008 ... Hope it will be better

  • Has the new model 160gb classic solved the random pauses and gaps problem?

    Just wondering if the apple morons have solved the problems that the last 2 generation classics had with the random pauses and gaps?
    I binned the first model 160gb that came out 2 years ago and went back to the 5th gen 80gb model which plays perfect.
    If they have finally fixed the problem with the new classics, i'll be picking a new 160gb up, but not until i hear what people who already own them have to say first.

    well your one lucky customer. having bought a 2009 ipod and no hard drive issues. i bought one and i got it to sync music and photos. but than it paused and restarted it and i got the red x. so i returned it and they exchanged it for a brand new still in the sealed box ipod and it was the same thing again. im gonna try sending it in. if it still happens, than im gonna have to refund.

  • Do I need to drop Mozilla since they can't seem to solve the Adobe Flash problem?

    I have followed every step suggested to fix Adobe Flash crashing problem. Is the real solution to just drop Mozilla and switch to Chrome? Seem Adobe Flash works just fine there...

    By the way, it would be useful if you could mention which settings you have changed. The headline suggestions for working around Flash problems usually include the following:
    (1) Disable protected mode (Win Vista and Win 7 only)
    See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    (2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash
    (A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (3) Check for and resolve conflicts with Firefox add-ons (e.g., using Safe Mode or a clean profile)
    (4) For display issues with scrolling, disable Smooth Scrolling and Autoscrolling here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced > General
