  • How to Disable the Adobe Flash Player and Reader Updates

    Ok, For the last two months or so, I have been plagued by the Adobe Flash Player and Reader updater that will not go away. That's not the worst thing though: Somehow, someway, the Adobe updater subverts my entire windows 7 machine and makes itself the most important program on my system, stopping all other necessary functions. After I just turn it on, the updater will suspend all Windows operations in favor of the updater getting its message out the Adobe "needs" updating. I have tried updating the stupid thing, only to find that after the update goes in, my whole computer locks up and I have to load a system restore point. This thing acts like a virus, and until someone comes up with a way to make it work properly, that's what I'm calling: Adobe creates and sells a computer killing virus. I want a sure fire way to disable the updater that will work, and that will never bug me again about updating the virus. After going through three different computer repair companies, many online forums and chat rooms and my own knowledge of how to disable programs, I have instructed my firewall to block all attempts by Adobe to update. This has to stop.

  • Adobe flash player and reading pdf files.

         I've recently been having issues with Safari reading online pdf files and loading up sites using adobe flash player.
         I've somehow tracked down a temporary solve by going into Safari's "preferences", then the security tab.
         Where it shows "internet plug-ins" I have it checked so it can load adobe flash. But when it comes to reading pdf files (adobe reader)
         I have to uncheck "internet plug ins". So in turn I can read the pdfs, but not use adobe flash player.
         There seems to be a conflict between the adobe reader and flash player that I can use both at the same time.
         Any suggestions on how to correct this issue?
         Here's a screenshot of what I have. And if I have to delete one of these plug-ins how can I do this as I don't see any options to do so.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • Help! I can't update Flash Player or Reader

    After I click yes to the question, "Do you want to allow this program to make changes on your computer" it brings up a blank black box which just sits there forever and never does anything else. When I try to close the box by clicking on the red box with the "X" in it top right -hand side of box) it attempts to direct me to a bad or incorrect link and says "That page cannot be displayed."
    I have tried clicking on "if you encounter any issues downloading Adobe click here." and that didn't work.
    I have tried searching through the Adobe "support" area and all of the errors listed none seem to mention anything about a blank black box. There were a couple of topics that seemed close so I tried following what they recommended and still I have the same problem.
    So my last resort is to try the forums in hopes that someone can help.
    I am also unable to update Adobe Reader for the same reason. BLANK BLACK BOX.
    Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this?

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! Before I saw your reply I had found an updated download for Flash Player, but was still struggling with problems with Reader. Your link totally did the trick and now I am back in the land viewing/saving PDFs!
    Best regards,
    Super happy person!

  • Flash Player not read.

    First let me start that I do NOT know much about computers.  Here goes.  Adobe flash plyer works on only severa sites.  I can watch Hulu fine, but when I go to Youtube I get a notification I need to install Adobe Flash Player.  But it is there!!!!  Why can Hulu see it is on my computer and use it, but Youtube for some reason does not see it to use it.  I have uninstalled flash player several times and reinstalled.  SOME times this works and youtube is ok for a day or so, then bang Youtube starts telling me I need to install flash player.  This is driving this non computer person crazy!!!  FYI I have a Dell laptop with Windows 7.  Thank you so much for your help!!!

    I have the same problem.  I used to have Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235 and I upgraded to the audio-chopping 11.3.300.268 before reverting back, but now YouTube won't let me play without upgrading to the appropriate, most recent version!  Somehow version 11.2.202.235 just won't work on Firefox 14, so I upgraded to the horrible, choppy, most recent version!  When will these issues be fixed?! 

  • Big problem with Flash Player - please read.

    So i just got a new computer, and everything's fine. I get Avast, Spyware Terminator, and start going back to my usual.
    I then go play a game, and it says I need a plugin, of course, Flash Player.
    I click the button and go to install it: In the end, Spyware terminator blocks the downloading process with a warning message: A trojan was discovered in the download process. So everyone, if you have any problems with flash player, lowering your defenses and so on has a high chance of increasing the problem. Avoid downloading it (for now) and try to find an earlier version.
    Thank you for reading this,

    Only download installers from the original developers website, in this case adobe.com or macromedia.com
    If you need any help, please post more information (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/657743).
