Adobe Flash Player 11 50% Install Error: Unknown Error.

I freshly installed Windows 7: Ultimate edition (32 bit) and It seemed I had no flash player so I went to go download the newest flash player and it goes through the proccess flawlessly until it hits 50% it fails and says "Error: Unknown Error" I tried Troubleshooting witch it sent me to but none of it works. I would really like some help with this problem within the week. Thank you!

I was having the same problem, but the full installer worked for me. There's at least one other thread reporting the same thing. I guess there's something wrong with Adobe's servers tonight.

After the latest version of Adobe flash player was installed, movies and tv shows will not play, and

After the latest version of Adobe Flash Player was installed, movies and tv shows will not run, and most of the news videos will not play. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but that does not help.

I have windows (crap) seven and internet explorer. When I try to access movies or tv shows, I'm always asked to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. When I check the programs list, it indicates that Adobe Flash Player Active X is installed. I have uninstalled adobe and reinstalled it several times. Do you suppose this is a virus, and I need to redo the hard drive completely?

Do I have Adobe Flash Player? Installed it-cant find it

DO I HAVE ADOBE FLASH PLAYER? INSTALLED IT-CANT FIND IT-TRIED TO DOWNLOAD VIDEOS TO "FLASH PLAYER" BUT COULD NOT DO IT-VIDEOS DISAPPEARED INTO CYBERSPACE. THIS SOUNDS LIKE IT IS NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE.WHY SO DIFFICULT TO ACCESS ADOBE FLASH PLAYER? [email address removed by host]

To see if you have Flash Player installed, go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
If anything shows up under "Version information" you have it installed.

Can adobe flash player be installed on ipad

Can adobe flash player be installed on iPad.

There is no Flash Player for iOS; Apple won't allow it.

Adobe Flash Player (General install error) *****! Mach_Kernal missing?

Never had a problem updating Adobe Flash Player over the last maybe 10 times, It downloads to 50% and then bottoms out with a (general install error) message. So the I uninstalled and tried to re-install to no avail.
I don't know if I updated since updating to 10.8.5 but I read that the (Mach_Kernal) was found on people's (Documents) folder and some people deleted this but I don't remember if I ever got this when I updated. This was a blunder when updating to 10.8.5 and Apple was aware of it.
If that file isn't there is will cause Adobe Flash Player to fail.
I tried several Sudo commmands in Terminal to find the invisible (Mach_Kernel) file but when I type that in it just comes up with a message (No such thing found) Then I tried another Sudo command which would install it if it was missing and it comes up with the same thing (no such file or directory found).
Anyone know where this file resides and what folder it's in and can direct me exactly how to get to it to find out if it's still on my machine? As I said the Sudo commands came up with no results.
Thanks for your responses!

I don't know what you mean by clone your setup. Exactly what the whole OS? on an external drive. I do have an external drive but don't know how to back up the whole OS.
You use a separate partition (much preferably on a different physical drive) to make an exact copy of your current startup drive. At any time, you can choose to boot to it. Time Machine is a nice idea in that it automatically keeps various iterations of your data for you so you can go back to older versions of a document and such, but is (in my personal opinion) the clumsiest way possible to restore a hard drive.
You can create a clone with Disk Utility, SuperDuper!, or Carbon Copy Cloner. The last two are third party apps which can perform extra abilities to make clone backups easier. I use the registered version of SuperDuper! myself, but CCC works just as well.
Once you make a clone of your startup drive, it is just what it implies. You have an exact copy of whatever drive you clone to another drive/partition. So instead of going through the very roundabout way of restoring a drive by reinstalling the OS and attaching a Time Machine backup to the reinstall on the fly, you simply boot to your clone and copy it back. Done. Takes way, WAY less time to get back up and running.
But if I do a re-install from that it'll bring back my lost stuff but will also bring back the old crap again. So what good would it do.
Yes, that could be an issue, but at least you'd be back to your last Time Machine backup state.
Plus No! I searched the App store and OS X Mountain Lion woulnd't even come up.
Open the App Store app and click on Store > View My Account. Click on the Manage link to unhide redownloadable purchases. Unhide Mountain Lion so it appears under the Purchases tab again.
Where did you read that Apple fixed this 10.8.5 Kernal problem?
A few users noted it on these forums about a week after the bug was noticed. They said the 10.8.5 update and full download of ML were fixed. I haven't checked it myself. It's very easy to properly hide the mach_kernel file if necessary.
Enter this in Terminal, or copy/paste the line below into Terminal:
sudo chflags hidden /mach_kernel
It will then ask for your admin password to complete the command. After that, the kernel should be hidden.
Well it wouldn't do me any good if I brought it back from Time Machine because the error is in the back up.
Yes, that is what would happen. I don't think you have any control over an OS/Time Machine reinstall. You will always be put back at your last backup state.
Furthemore if it's in your past purchases (You should't have to pay for it)! Why would I pay for it when it's in my past purchases with a download button?
You absolutely should not have to. Once purchased, it's yours. I've got Lion and Mountain Lion on bootable USB drives I made from the downloads. I can boot my Mac to those at any time and reinstall the OS. I'm going to do the same thing with Mavericks, just haven't done it yet.

Adobe Flash will not install. (Shows errors.)

I tried to install the Trial version to at least know what I'm buying, but it stopped and showed all of these errors.
OS: Windows XP Service Pack 2
It's also a 32 bit system. Is that why I can't install it?

Thanks in advance. I would really love to work with this Flash player.

Hi, I'm not sure what you are trying to Install. Adobe Flash Player, the browser plugin? Or the CS5? If the former, then you are on the correct Forum. If the latter, you may want to start a thread on one of the other Forums from here and use the "Select Forum" drop down arrow.
http://forums.adobe.com/index.jspa
However, it appears that your system is a 32bit and this WARNING #5 on your list shows that what you are trying to Install is for a 64bit OS. You may need to make sure you are using the correct version.
See if that is what the problem is.
Thanks,

Warning: Your Adobe Flash Player version is outdated. (false error message)

When I get this false error message and click on the link, Adobe tells me my current Flash Player version is 11.9.900.170 and "Your system is: Windows 64-bit, English". I actually have an iMac with OSX 10.7.5, and Adobe Flash Player 11.9.900.170 already installed. I've reinstalled, deleted Flash Player completely and reinstalled several times and yet I continue getting these false "Windows 64-bit" update needed error messages for my iMac computer. How do I stop these false error messages?

I'm having a similar issue on both my Macbook Pro (OSX Mavericks), my iPhone 5S (iOS 7.0.4) and my wife's iPhone 5C (iOS 7.0.4). It happens on almost every site I viisit and when I launch some apps. I've cleared histories, caches and turned Javascript on/off. Also, get the "warning" when I use Chrome for iOS. I've added an image below of what it looks like on my phone. I'm attempting a factory restore on my 5S. I'll let you know if it helps.

How can I get Adobe Flash Player to install on my computer

I just sent in a question regarding installing Adobe Flash Player on my computer. In fact, I did it twice. I do not understand how this discussion section works?

Thanks so much for your answer to my first question.
I have Windows 7 and use the Microsoft Internet Explorer.
I do not have any version of Adobe Flash Player on my computer. I recently received a message from Kaspersky Security that there was a problem with my Adobe Flash Player. I then uninstalled the Flash Player that was on my computer. I don't know what version that was.
Now, I am trying to download another version of Adobe Flash Player on my computer. When I hit the install prompt, I am unable to hit run as a pop-up message comes across the bottom of my screen which asks me if I want to open or save. When trying either of these options, I get an error message that says the attempt has failed.
I tried to work through the help section on Adobe.com today. I tried to go into tools and change the settings it suggested. This also failed.
Now, I don't know where to go from there?

Am running Vista and it shows Adobe flash player 100% installed but it will not work. I have uninstalled numerous times and still no luck. Had success on older computer running XP. I have searched the net and attempted numerous options but to no avail.

Adobe Flash player states it is installed and gives the current version but when I attempt to view a video it tells me to download the newest flash player however it showed I have installed it.
When I go to uninstall programs it does not show any files have been downloaded for the program... so I have uninstalled; restarted; re-installed under administrator; turned off any virus protection and firewalls... etc.
Basically I have tried everything I have seen posted.
I need help!!!!

Do you have NoScript or Flashblock or some similar Extension installed? If so, are you allowing the site, at least on a temporary basis, access by such an Extension?

I have a new mini ipad and need to install Adobe Flash Player on it in order to use certain items on the internet. Can Adobe Flash Player be installed an used on my ipad??

I have my first ipad. It is the mini version. I'm trying to go to certain sites on the internet that tell me I need to update or install Adobe Flash Player. When I try to down load Adobe Flash Player I get a message saying "this device does not support Adobe Flash Player". Can I not use Adobe Flash Player on my ipad like I do on my computers and my iphone???

You can't install flash player on your iPad, nor on your iPhone - it's not supported on iOS devices, and as Adobe have stopped development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

Trying to access website but it says Adobe Flash Player not installed

www.caesars.com/thelinq live webcam
I have Windows 7, 64 bit with IE 1,0 32 bit. Flash Player 11.9.900.170.
Have been through the troubleshooting list several times but can't get this website to access Flash Player. FP seems to work everywhere else. Any help would be appreciated!

Apple has built-in malware protection in OS X. This malware protection was just updated by Apple to exclude all earlier versions of Adobe Flashplayer. The current version is 12.0.0.44.
You should not be downloading Adobe Flash Player from anywhere but Adobe's official download site.
Once you download it, it will go into your logindir/Downloads folder. Quit all browsers, and System Preferences (if it is open). Next to your Trash icon in the Dock is an alias to your Downloads folder. Click once, and the bottom item will be the just downloaded Flash Player installer. Single-click this installer. The Adobe Flash Player Installer will mount to your Desktop and open a window. Double-click on Install Adobe Flash Player. When done, right-click on the mounted Adobe Flash Player Installer Desktop icon and select Eject...
In the future, use the Flash Player preference from System Preferences to update itself. Once the installer mounts on the Desktop, close System Preferences, or Flash preference panel will not get updated correctly.

Adobe Flash Player Issues (install.....not working!!) PLease help!

A couple days ago Youtube stopped working for me saying
Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old
version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.
So i did.. First it didn't work, (saying it installed
successfully) but there was no movie showing it installed. I did
this installation at least 15 times. Then i started getting the
Failed report telling me to go to the troubleshoot site for Windows
adobe flash players.
i have Windows Vista (a 32bit i believe) and IE 7
I did what it said. when i got to the uninstall everything. i
did and then i couldn't get Adobe to install it back on! I tried
everything i could think of, i went to all sorts of sites to try to
find answers. I did the sublnACL and it didn't work. My internet
settings are fine.
Somehow i got the flash on my computer by saving the
installation on my computer and then installing it. But still it
didn't work. I tried to repair it. or open the documents and
install the update but it didn't work. Usually the Adobe flash
would seem to delete itself when i did that. it seems i have
restarted my computer a million times for all of this....
I've deleted my temporary internet files and everything it
tells me to do on YouTube (i love youtube BTW) and it still wont
work....
java seems to be working fine all updated and on and
stuff.....
when i try to download Adobe Flash PLayer 9 again it tells me
it installed completely but i don't see the movie...and YouTube
STILL doesn't WORK.... :(
i don't know if i have left anything out that i have
tried.... but PLEASE help!!! BTW this was after the Adobe Update i
think

Adobe flash player can install in mobile phone?

where can find the adobe flash player that can install in mobile phone???

It was reported on some of the on line news outs lets that supposedly apple and adobe were working together to come up with a version for cell phones.
I find it difficult to even veiw most webpages on my cellphone, a Blackberry 8330, let alone run flash content. I was an Alltel customer which was just taken over by Verizon. To be effective you'll need a 3G or 4 4G phone to take advantage of Flash. Allel and Verizon just has 1EXV.Though Supposedly by end of year the will go to 4G.

Why does Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash player keep installing McaFee Security Scan on my system?

Whenever I install the Adobe Flash player or Adobe Reader on my system, it downloads and installs McAfee Security Scan Plus at the same time. It does not ask if I want it or not, it instead forces it on me, so I have to then unistall it. I've unistalled it 3 or 4 times in the last week. I DO NOT WANT MCAFEE PRODUCTS on my computer!
Please make this an option, give the users a choice so we don't have to keep removing the stupid thing.

Did you 'Uncheck" the relevant box pointed by the red arrow ? If not you accepted the installation with McAfee.

Can't run Adobe Flash player after install

I installed Adobe Flash player as administrator in Windows
XP. Now when I'm logged in as a non-administrator user, I cannot
run the Flash player. I just get a message suggesting I download it
when I go to a website that wants to use it. If I go to the same
website logged in as the administrator, it runs fine. Has anyone
encountered this problem?
Thanks.

Try another browser. Here's why I say that.
"User-Agent Strings"
That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess thay've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Can't find adobe flash player after installing

I have downloaded and installed the latest version (12) of Adobe Flash Player on my Windows 7 computer. I checked the help page and it says it is installed and I see the clouds moving. However, I cannot find the program on my computer. I am trying to watch some movie video clips from a website and it keeps saying I have to have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to watch it. I have downloaded and installed it 5 times now to no avail. I have turned off my computer and turned it back on each time. I have Norton Internet Security but I told it to allow it when it installed. I really want to watch the movie clips. Where can it be and why doesn't it run? Thanks to anyone who can help me. (I am not really technical so please make it not too difficult if you can).
