Adobe Flash Download from Internet

I can't view any videos on my MacBook Pro without Adobe Flash and it is not available through Apple App Store. I do a lot of banking on my computer and I've read that Adobe Flash has a lot of problems. I'm concerned it might affect the security of my computer. Am I the only one concerned about this?

The only site you should download Flash from is the Adobe site otherwise you may subject your Mac to malware.
Flash is not available from the App Store anyway.. it's written by Adobe. It's not an app, it's a plugin. Big difference.
If you are having problems with Flash streamed content, do the following:
Assuming you are using Safari for video, quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very important to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first even if it's the most recent version.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

Flash Download from Adobe site says it's not most current and will not continue the install.

I tried to update my flash on 9/20 and my flash seems to have gotten corrupted. Since that update, its not working properly and some sites report it's out of date or doesn't seem to be installed. Tried downloading Flash from your download area today but when the installer runs, it states The version is not the most current. Please download from the player download area. However, I did get my install directly from your website's downloads area. I uninstalled my "corrupted" version thinking it might be causing the issue but I still get the same error with the flash download from your site and now I have no Flash at all.
Please help.

Download and save the uninstaller Save it to your downloads folder - DO NOT run it yet.
Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking one (or both) of the following links and selecting "Save Target as"(IE) or "Save Link as"(other browsers).
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Save the installer(s) to your downloads folder - DO NOT run it(them) yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE you run anything else, locate and run the uninstaller.
When it finishes, run the installer(s) to put Flash Player on your system again.
If you use IE see also:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer

Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 11 (Windows 8.1)

Hello
I am having a problem with Flash in IE 11 / Win 8.1. I understand it is embedded. But I keep getting the window at the bottom of the screen saying this webpage wants to run the following add-on 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component....' I click allow and the message keeps coming back. On top of this, Flash will not work.
I have a feeling there is something corrupted. I have tried to download an update (kb3004150) and it says I already have this on my system. I also have tried to install it manually using the install_flash_player_ax.exe file, but to no avail.
What do I need to do to fix this and why aren't there other options on Adobe's site?
Thank you!!!

Adjusting the ActiveX Filtering settings should help you resolve those "Do you want to allow Flash Player" prompts:
Use ActiveX filtering - Windows Help
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

How to stop Adobe Flash plugin from repeatedly crashing Firefox?

How to stop Adobe Flash plugin from repeatedly crashing Firefox?

yeah, having the same problem.
Hulu is working on my internet explorer 8, tho... Interesting thing is that it detected I didn't have the 10.1 version of adobe flash player even though I just downloaded that on firefox. So MAYBE the problem is between firefox and adobe. Just a guess

Adobe Flash download stops working after I press run. It worked fine with Explorer before I went to Forefox

error message reads " adobe flash download has stopped working. Windows will notify you if there is a fix" or something like that. I have tried to download about 10 times over 3 days. I need help. I transferred over to Firefox just this week from IE. I had no problems with Adobe with that program. But I cannot download it onto Firefox. Very frustrating. I have Windows Vista on this laptop.

Please provide a crash id for the flash crash -> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report

Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning

Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning. However, flash player is installed and enabled, but HP Solution center keeps asking for enabling and doesn't let me scan.
Any suggestion?

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @yuvalyanai
I read about the issue you are having with scanning, as you are seeing a message to enable Adobe Flash player.
To begin, I would like to know some more information:
Which operating system you are running and which printer you are working with?
How Do I Find My Model Number?
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Can you make copies successfully?
Can you print from your computer?
Have you tried updated Adobe Flash player?
Can you scan successfully from Microsoft Paint?
How is your printer connected to your PC, wireless, ethernet or USB?
In the meantime, try resetting the printer:
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
I hope to hear from you, have a wonderful weekend

I upgraded to OS Yosemite on my MacBook Air...and I cannot upgrade the Adobe Flash download that Adobe keeps asking me to download. I get the screen and when I click on the icon it just creates a new window but not download. Thoughts?

I just tried the link and it is just fine. If the GateKeeper pops up then open Security & Privacy preferences, click on the General tab, set the last radio button to Anywhere.

When trying up date adobe flash player from 10.1.102.64 to new version 10.2.152.26 i get an error message, "Installer will automatically continue when those conflicting applications are closed: [circle w/line through it] Mozilla firefox."

Save the Flash installer to the desktop and close Firefox via File > Exit Firefox.<br />
Start the Flash installer via a double-click on the Flash installer icon on the desktop.
If that still gives problems then see:

Pdf files unable to be downloaded from internet explorer

I have just purchased my first ipod nano, 4th generation. Since I have downloaded itunes to my computer I cannot view pdf files from internet explorer. I then removed itunes from the computer and pdf files could be downloaded from internet explorer. I then downloaded and installed itunes again and had the same problem all aver again. Could someone please tell me why this is happening.

Hi there mba,
Check out this thread, here a post from dansmith details the following steps:
"The issue is caused when Windows creates the printer profile in the control panel that it doesn't correctly create it with the drivers.
We're not going to completely uninstall all the HP software, instead we're going to remove the corrupt Windows printer profile and reinstall it. Total time for this on an average computer is about 5-10 minutes to completely repair (including reboot).
1) Navigate to Start Menu > Devices and Printers or Start Menu > Control Panel > Printers
2) Select each printer profile for the printer with an issue, then select remove device/printer.
3) Reboot
4) Navigate to Start Menu > All Programs > HP > insert model # here > Add Printer (or Setup Wizard)
5) Follow the setup prompts to reinstall the printer profile and it recreates the Windows printer.
6) Run the HP Update Tool from Start Menu > All Programs > HP if your printer installs it, rebooting afterwards if necessary.
7) Test by printing google.com (uses very little ink when the test page comes out)."
Try his steps out and let us know if it helps. '
Best of Luck!

Captivate5 Autorun opens Adobe Flash download page

I have developed an education package on Captivate5.
After publishing and choosing the settings "autorun CD & HTML", I cannot play the CD on my own computer.
When inserted into my computer, I briefly see the title of the education on the browser tab, then the Adobe Flash download page appears. I cannot access my presentation and I already have Flash installed. My publish settings are set to Adobe Flash 9, and I am being prompted to download 10.3.
The autorun works fine on 2 of my colleagues computers.
Any suggestions? Is this likely to occur for any of our users?

Have you checked whether or not the publish location has been added to your own PC's Flash Global Security as a trusted location?
Your issue might also be security related.

Program downloaded from internet are you sure you want to open

Hi Guys
I've got an issue i cant solve.
basically when opening programs i've downloaded from internet i.e .dmg files, and there installed in my applications, im getting the prompt that
" this program was downloaded from the internet, are you sure you want to open it? "
i can open and close the application and will still get the prompt, after reboots.
any suggestions
i've tried running cleanups with programs such as onyx as well but doesnt help
Cheers

If it keeps coming back after the first time for that app, then try repairing permissions using Disk Utlity.
It will report a lot of stuff that you can safely ignore. I'm not sure if it will fix the problem, but it might.
The Quarantine attribute is supposed to be stripped off when you OK it, but it appears it is not. It could be a problem with permissions that is preventing the attribute from being removed.
