9/3/2013 - Flash Player 11.9.900.85 Beta

Flash Player Beta Channel Update
The latest Flash Player 11.9 builds are now available. You can download Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta.
New Features:
Safe Mode in Safari 6.1 and higher
Safari 6.1 includes an updated version of Safari with Safe Mode, which implements new security restrictions on the operation of browser plug-ins. To the extent possible, we've adapted Flash Player to transparently handle these changes. A small number of behaviors will change in the context of Safe Mode and are explained in the Known Issues section below.
64-Bit PPAPI Flash Player for Chrome
(Currently available in the Chrome Canary channel)
Mac .pkg Installation Support
Deploying Flash Player and keeping it up to date in enterprise environments is a critical task for system administrators worldwide. We’re introducing a new .pkg installer format for our distribution partners to reduce their workload. Administrators can now deploy Flash Player for Mac using industry-standard management tools.
Testing Guidance:
This release focuses on enhanced premium video capabilities and new platform support. We're looking for feedback on stability and compatibility with existing content on these new platforms.
MacOS users should be testing with the lastest Mavericks Developer Preview (currently 3). Feedback on content with complex scenarios involving localConnection, ExternalInterface/External API, and FileReference will be especially helpful.
Known Issues:
The following behaviors will be modified in Safari 6.1 and higher in Safe Mode:
AIR Badge Installs - AIR Badge Installer will not launch an installer when running Safari 7 in Safe Mode. Users will instead see a dialog with a link to more details and workarounds on an Adobe website.
Adobe Connect Plug-In Install - The Connect Plug-In Express Install will no longer work on Safari 7 in Safe Mode. Users will instead see a dialog with a link to more details on an Adobe website.
Flash Player Global Settings - When a users launches the Global Settings menu from the Flash Player context menu on Safari 7 in Safe Mode, the user will be taken to the classic SWF-based preferences menu on an Adobe website, instead of the native Flash Player settings UI in the MacOS Control Panel.
LocalConnection - When a LocalConnection is constructed from a SWF hosted in Safe Mode, it may only establish a connection with other SWFs also hosted in Safe Mode. If a LocalConnection is constructed from a tab with Safe Mode disabled, it will not be able to communicate with a SWF in a Safe Mode tab.
Developers can detect whether or not a SWF is running in Safe Mode by checking the Boolean ProductManager.isAllowed(). (This is currently unofficial, and it's possible that we may alter it during the API review process.)
Notable Fixes and Enhancements:
The ExternalInterface.call() issue introduced in 11.8.800.95 has been fixed. The fix will also be included in the next 11.8 maintenance release. [3622360]
HTTP Live Streaming - WebVTT - An issue where captions would be delayed after returning from an ad have been resolved [3613440]
HTTP Live Streaming - WebVTT - Corrects an issue where the caption would wrap around the video display when the specific font was too large [3615084]
HTTP Live Streaming - WebVTT - Corrects an issue where large, non-default fonts would sometimes overlap [3585544]
[Mac] StageText - Corrects an issue where when zooming multiple times on a Mac equipped with Retina display, text would not scale correctly when maximizing the window. [3616952]
StageVideo - Corrects an issue where a few visible black frames could be seen during the transition between two MP4 video streams. [3612492]
[Flash Pro] Corrects an issue where Live Preview would hang when zooming very far (>200%) into content with filters applied [3596293]

Flash Player Beta Channel Update
Flash Player 11.7 builds are now available. You can download Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta.
Important Area for Testing Focus: New Background Update Patch Mechanism
This week's beta update includes a test of our new patch update mechanism for ActiveX and NPAPI Plug-In versions of Flash Player. This mechanism reduces the download size of a typical Flash Player update by about 75%.
Patches will only be downloaded and applied to systems running the latest current version of Flash Player (currently 11.7.700.141) and have selected Allow Adobe to Install Updates (Recommended). Systems running any other version of Flash Player (i.e. 11.7.700.128) will continue to receive the full install. Like the standard Background Update mechanism, patch installers include multiple cryptographic checks to validate the authenticity and integrity of the patch prior to application..
This change should be transparent; however, if you do experience installation problems, please let us know.

Hey Chris, thanks for all the keeping up with us and stuff. I have an issue and i'm not sure if this was already discussed (if so sorry). Windows 8 IE 10 I'm getting an error tying to downgrade my customers to the beta. The message i'm getting is
The installation encountered errors:
Your Microsoft Explorer browser includes the latest version on the Adobe Flash Player built-in. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of Flash Player are available.
I have done my research and I cannot find how to fix this issue. I have ran the uninstaller multiple times and restarted blah blah all the goodies. It will not let me install the beta.
Please help..... any idea how to get beta running on hundreds of my customers machines?
The beta work's great it seems like and I wouldn't mind installing the beta on all their machines till the final release (which seems like a few weeks away)
Thanks again, Tim

Adobe Flash Player 11.9.900.170 videos

I am having problems with the latest Flash Player 11.9.900.170 on Windows 7. I followed all the instructions after installation and everytime that I go to a website the Adobe Flash Player Settings box covers the video with "allow" or "deny". And no matter what I set the download setting, this box is always blocking the video and if I hit "allow" or "deny", nothing changes?

You can set your storage settings here: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l
It is recommeded that you allow data to store temporarily for playback.

Win8.1 Pro & Flash Player 11.9.900.117 "base" parameter issue

While "streamlining" some code for a web site, I just discovered that my solution doesn't work on my 2 Win8.1 PCs, but works in Vista 32-bit and Win7 64-bit machines. I've tested it in IE, Firefox and Chrome. (By "doesn't work", I mean I get an empty block where the Flash Player frame is supposed to be. Right-clicking on the area brings up the Flash settings menu.)
The change I made was to have all web pages in the "root" directory of the web site, and the videos (.swf and .flv files) in the "video" directory. Previously, the web pages that ran the videos were in the "video" directory. (This still works on the Win8.1 PCs.) I added the "base" parameter to the code (shown below) to direct the Flash Player to the "video" directory.
I've been poring through the Adobe site and various forums (fora ?) looking for a clue, but came up empty. Can anyone shed some light on the issue?
If you want to see the site, goto http://theolivebranchforchildren.org to see the current version,
and go to http://theolivebranchforchildren.org/index.php to see my revamped version.
Go to the Gallery page and click on any of the video links in the sidebar. (The example shown below is for the "Aids Testing" option [aids.flv video file].)
This is the code (as copied from the "view Source" option of the browsers - all identical) that runs in Vista and Win7 but not in Win8.1 ...
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="502" height="322" id="FLVPlayer">
<param name="base" value="video" />
<param name="movie" value="video/FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf" />
<param name="salign" value="lt" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noscale" />
<param name="FlashVars" value="&MM_ComponentVersion=1&base=video&skinName=Halo_Skin_3&streamName=aids&autoPlay=true&autoRewind=false" />
<embed src="video/FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf"

type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>
FOLLOW-UP 10/21/2013 -- I almost got around the problem by creating soft links in the web site's root directory to the files in the video directory. This is an ugly workaround, but suggests that the "base" parameter is being totally ignored in the Win8.1 implementation of Flash Player by Firefox & Chrome, both of which can now play the videos. It still doesn't work in IE11, though.
... AL
Please visit http://www.theolivebranchforchildren.org/ to see a miracle developing.

The "base" parameter issue, as I described it above, has "gone away" silently. Now I can play the movies via Flash Player in IE11, FireFox, Chrome and Safari on my two Win8.1pro laptops. IE11 was the last holdout -- I had to turn off the PopUp Disabler in the IE settings to let the Flash Player play.
I'm a happy camper now.

Hi Marc,
I just gave this a try with SeaMonkey and Firefox on Win 8 and the stream played fine for me. What OS are you on?
Thanks,
Chris

Trouble installing Adobe Flash Player 11.9.900.170 on Mac OS X 10.9

Hello dear experts,
since the last update of Adobe Flash Player I cannot install the application anymore.
The installation cancels with a general error message.
Mac's console shows the following messages:
02.01.14 12:34:21,000 kernel[0]: hfs: mounted Adobe Flash Player Installer on device disk1s2

If I install with the -debug option with the offline installer Mac's console show the following:

If I try to start the installation using the Adobe Flash Player.pkg in the „Resources“ folder I cannot chose my hard drive to install flash.
The following log messages can relate to this:
02.01.14 12:59:16,100 Installer[1641]: *** WARNING: -[NSImage compositeToPoint:operation:] is deprecated in MacOSX 10.8 and later. Please use -[NSImage drawAtPoint:fromRect:operation:fraction:] instead.

I think this exception is thrown if I click on my hard drive’s symbol in the installer.
I have the same problem when I try to install Microsoft’s last Office update. Maybe there is a connection?
I tried several older versions of the Adobe Flash Player installer, but they didn't work as well.
Perhaps we have some kind of "Mavericks" problem here?
Any help would be highly appreciated!
Thank you very much in advance.
Kind regards
Oliver

Finally found the issue here:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3889562?tstart=0
Somehow a empty file /System/Library/CoreServices/ServerVersion.plist has been created.
If I understand this right this file is only needed if you use Mac OS X Server.
As suggested in the support forum I deleted the file (renamed it to _ServerVersion.plist) and after that every installation, including Adobe Flash Player and Office 2011 update worked!
Thank you very much,
Kind regards,
Oliver

Hey Chris, thanks for all the keeping up with us and stuff. I have an issue and i'm not sure if this was already discussed (if so sorry). Windows 8 IE 10 I'm getting an error tying to downgrade my customers to the beta. The message i'm getting is
The installation encountered errors:
Your Microsoft Explorer browser includes the latest version on the Adobe Flash Player built-in. Windows Update will inform you when new versions of Flash Player are available.
I have done my research and I cannot find how to fix this issue. I have ran the uninstaller multiple times and restarted blah blah all the goodies. It will not let me install the beta.
Please help..... any idea how to get beta running on hundreds of my customers machines?
The beta work's great it seems like and I wouldn't mind installing the beta on all their machines till the final release (which seems like a few weeks away)
Thanks again, Tim

FOUND A FIX FOR ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 11.9.900.152

I have Windows 7, 64bit and Internet Explorer 11 installed. I found the fix for Adobe Flash Player after 2 days of doing everything. I thought that the fix should be something very easy and it was. I spent 2 full days doing all kinds of ridiculous things, i.e. uninstalling, reinstalling, restore computer, deactiving XActive, reactivating, changing stuff under internet options, etc. The problem was Internet Explorer 11 update caused Adobe Flash Player not to work or recognize the flash player, or installing a new router caused it not to work. Websites kept displaying messages to download Adobe Flash Player when I already did. There appeared to be a conflict where some videos played and other did not. Youtube did not work anymore. All the problems that other people posted under these forums happened to me. I could not play the games I was playing before, etc. Anyway, I am NOT a tech person and understand little and almost gave up when by accident I found the fix and EVERYTHING works without rebooting anything, uninstalling or reinstalling etc. as all the people in the forums posted. Everything was so complicated!!
THE FIX: Go to Goodgle Chrome browser. If you don't have it, download it. The Adobe Flash Player is included in this browser. Anyway, at the very top RIGHT HAND SIDE there are lines in a square formation. Click on that and go to SETTINGS. Go to very bottom and click on SHOW ADVANCED SETTINGS. SCROLL DOWN TO THE VERY BOTTOM and click on RESET BROWSER SETTINGS. After I did that, EVERYTHING WORKED!!!!!!!!!!! Youtube worked, my game worked in BOTH GOOGLE CHROME AND INTERNET EXPLORER 11. It was like a miracle and a simple fix.
I hope I can save some people ALOT of aggravation and frustration. Adobe should have this fix displayed PROMINENTLY EVERYWHERE if it is indeed this simple. Let me know if this helps. All I know is that I had the same issues as everyone else in the forums and now it is all fixed. I have very limited knowledge, almost none. It just seemed that something was blocking the videos from coming up.

Thanks Mike. I'm not sure what I'm doing but I also re-downloaded the flash player and I got YouTube videos to play again. I have IE11 that I tried to uninstall (it won't let me) so I had to use a restore point, so videos I noticed in yahoo.ca can't play but I read lots of people having issues with this. But, by using a restore point, and re-downloading the flash player (a couple of time until it took), I got Youtube and my game back on IE11. I plan to use Chrome Google though after this experience as everything works there
