Adobe Flash player add-on missing from Windows 8 Internet Explorer

My Adobe Flash player add-on appears missing and I have followed all the trouble shooting but the add-on is not listed in the internet explorer add-ons list even when viewing them all.  How can I fix this?

It's called Shockwave Flash Object; is that also not listed?

  • Adobe Flash Player Pop Up when going to Internet Explorer

    I am continuously getting an Adobe Flash Player pop up when going to Internet Explorer.  It says "A website wants to open web content using this program on your computer".  This program will open outside protected mode etc. etc.  If you do not trust this site do not open.  This pops up every second.  Is this a virus and if so how do I get rid of it?
    SKB

    My level is at Medium High.  I unchecked the “Enable Protected Mode”.  Is this safe?  The pop up is no longer popping up.

  • On the same machine, Adobe Flash Player installs and operates satisfactorily in Internet Explorer but does not install at all in Firefox. What to do? I'd prefer using Firefox in lieu of Explorer.

    The machine is running Windows 7, 32 bit. Downloaded Firefox today (Jun 7, 2011) so it should be the latest version. Same with Flash Player.

    The fact that I have no problems whatsoever in Firefox leads me to believe that the issue lies with IE.Sounds about right.
    When I go to check if I have Java at http://java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml?ff3 I get a pop up log in box saying "the server java.com at SUN ONE web server requires a username and password" (when using IE - Firefox / Opera display the dancing duke symbol as they should)
    It sounds like you are now talking about having Applets run in your browser. Before you talk to IE customer support, you should nail down what your problem actually is, JavaScript or Java Applets, they are different technologies belonging to different people and implemented very differently.
    What's going on?You have a problem with Internet Explorer. Either ask their customer service or stop using it.

  • I want an alternative to Adobe flash player plug-in for my Windows 8 computer 64 bit

    I am so sick of Adobe flash player plug-in not being responsive with Firefox

    Mozilla is currently developing an open standards-based Flash renderer called Shumway.
    https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Shumway
    Available as an extension [http://mozilla.github.io/shumway/extension/firefox/shumway.xpi here]. ''< click to launch the add-on installer.''
    ''It seems to work fine on YouTube videos in the Firefox 31 release version, although it is somewhat CPU intensive.''
    And also available in the Nightly development versions.
    http://nightly.mozilla.org/
    Feel free to try it out, but make sure you install it into its' own Program Files folderset and make sure you create a unique Profile for use only with Nightly. If the same Profile is used with both Release and pre-release versions problems sometimes arise after switching back and forth between different versions of Firefox. Basically, Nightly is like 18 weeks ''(at a minimum)'' removed from becoming a release version, but some projects stay on Nightly for a longer time as they are being developed. That happens to provide as many user / testers as possible, by not resorting to a separate development trunk version.

  • Why is Youtube not recognizing my Adobe Flash Player Add-On?

    I just did the auto update so that Firefox 17.0 was installed. Anyway, for whatever reason, Youtube only seems to notice that my Adobe Flash Player add-on exists when it wants to. At the moment, it's not recognizing it, so I can't play videos. I've had to close out my current sessions of Firefox to get it to recognize the Flash Player, and then even then it's a crap shoot. What is going on? How can I fix this? Flash is one of the most basic programs needed in an internet browser, these days.

    Yes, this worked. And, I didn't even have to close Firefox to get it to work.

    Webpages want to run the following add-on continually: 'Adobe Flash player' from 'Adobe Systems Incorporated'
    When I click 'all websites', the download appears to run, then the same pop-up immediately re-appears.
    This happens all the time in IE-11, occasionally in Foxfire. It is driving me to distraction.

  • When will Adobe Flash  Player be available for my Windows Phone 7?

    I have the new Samsung Focus SGH-i917 Windows Phone 7. When I visit news pages that require Adobe
    flash player, I can't play the videos. When I try to download the player I get an error message that it is not supported .

    If it's Android 4.0 there will be no further development of Flash Player. Android dropped all support for Flash last year, and Adobe isn't developing for it anymore as a result.
    There  are alternatives to Flash for Android devices:
    You can find info about "Dolphin" for Android at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser It seems to be the browser of choice to play Flash content on an Android device.
    Also, check the Android forums to see what their "gurus" recommend.

    Chrome uses a different and separate plug-in.
    There are things about IE you need to know, especially 11. Specifically:
    "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 they'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.

  • Adobe Flash Player error during update from 10.0.45 to 10.1

    I am getting this error message during the upgrade from 10.0 to 10.1 and it errors with the following error:
    Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or Package vendor. Action NewCustomAction1, location: ...\installAX.exe, com...
    since this has happened, it has already removed the previous version of flash and will not allow me to reinstall the new or old version so now I have no version of flash.
    Has anyone else seen this?  I have only 1 solutionn right now which is to reimage the PC.

    Uninstall your current FP first; use the uninstaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html, then download the installer(s)
    for Internet Explorer http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
    for all other browsers http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
    Download all the above executables to disk, then close all browser windows and run the downloaded uninstaller, followed by the installer(s).
