Adobe flash player downloads but does not work

Hi,
When I download the flash player is says to click on active x and I do and allow and then it downloads and says complete but does not work when I try to watch you tube videos.  It says download flash player which I have already done.  Please help.

You should see a flash animation if the Flash player was installed properly.  That you aren't seeing it means that it hasn't been.
Adobe has a link to a troubleshooting page:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html
Work through the suggestions.

  • HT5655 Feb 2013 Adobe Flash Player Upgrade Install Does not work - metafile issue

    I tried uploading the Feb 2013 update without success. Adobe troubleshooting suggested uninstalling existing version of AFP - which I did - still get "Metafile Instalation failed" - now have NO AFP. Adobe says they are aware of the issue and working on it. Any ideas as to how to reupload my old AFP version??

    That's great to hear that you were able to find a solution.
    I've been trying to fix this issue with Adobe for 5 days now and no one is coming back to me (tried the terminal cd solution and it doesn't work).
    Luigi could you expand on where you were directed to find a solution? Running  
    sudo ./Install\ Adobe\ Flash\ Player.app/Contents/MacOS/Install\ Adobe\ Flash\ Player 
    has only given me a "command no found" message.
    Thanks

  • Flash Player installs but does not work in Firefox

    I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled latest Flash Player. It says installing is complete but I cannot view any of the videos that require it. I get the msg that I need to install latest version.

    There's two different versions of Flash, ActiveX for IE and the Plugin version for other browsers.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Flash player plug-in does not work

    flash player plug-in does not work

    You don't say on what Mac, and you haven't actually asked a question, but perhaps this might be helpful:
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version, 10.2.152.25 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Note that the latest Flash Player update only works on YouTube with Safari in 32 bit mode - until YouTube correct this.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • Adobe flash player and youtube are not working

    adobe flash player and youtube are not working

    It seems that going to Preferences>Security> Check allow plug ins, then manage sites, and then allowing one site allows all??? Seems like a lot to go through.  I have installed the player 4 times now and just got it figured out!

  • Adobe Flash Player 10.1 is not working

    Hallo,
    My problem is that everything that uses flash player, does not work at the moment and says that I need the latest version. (I cannot see a video on you tube for example.)
    I downloaded AFP 10.1 several times (install-uninstall-reboot several times), I even checked the "Add-remove programms" and the "Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X" is there, but when I get to see a youtube video it says again to get the latest version. Each install was successful, but it still doesn't work.
    Here's some information about my computer in case of a need :
    Windows XP Professional
    Internet Explorer 8
    Norton 360
    and I also have some issues with pop-ups (I don't know if this is related)
    Note that:Today I was asked to update the AFP on the firefox and I did and until now it works perfectly.
    (I use both firefox and internet explorer)
    If anyone could help me , I would be very grateful...

    Hi Eidnolb,be careful, long post following  :
    Yes of course I kept MBAM on my desktop as a shortcut (was actually installed in C:\Program files) and it became my new friend .
    I am so suspicious now on everything that I am scanning my pc everyday!!
    I saw the scanning works without disabling Norton components, but you still think I have to do it , right?
    As for the Java, ok with the update.Now I have Java 6 Update 21.

  • Why Adobe Flash Player 11.3 r300 not working appropriately in Firefox 13.0?

    Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64bits Pt-Br
    Firefox 13.0  (Adobe Flash Player Plug-in) 11.3 r300
    IE9 (Adobe Flash Player Active-x) 11.3 r300
    In time: In both browsers (Firerox and IE9) Adobe Flash Player is slower than normal and in Firerox sometimes it crash.
    My System:

    I too have an 8GB RAM and quad core processor on my desktop and my laptop it is an Intel Quad i7 core, 8GB RAM. When there was any sluggishness, it was not Flash, but something else causing the heavy CPU useage because it was fighting with Flash.
    On my computer, I went into FireFox Add-ons, then checked the extensions and plugins.The one problem I had was with a Real Player plugin. It allowed the recording and download of any video, with an App style button that appears above the the video itself when the cursor is placed there. For me that was disabled by FireFox because of conflicts, but even in the disabled state, it caused Flash issues. When I uninstalled the extension or plugin, Flash worked fine.
    It may be the same, or another plugin or extension that is causing the issue. FireFox sites say to disable, but that proved useless to do because disabling for the RealPlayer plugin made no difference, it had to be removed completely to see the difference.
    If no greyed out ones, then uninstall all the plugins and test FireFox. If all works great, reinstall one by one and each time test FireFox with Flash. You will likely find which one it is and know what to do from there.
    I know it is a bit of a hassle, but from the experience I had so far, Flash was not the issue, it was from another plugin.
    If it is Real Player, then disable the plugin by:
    Close Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer if either is running.
    Click "Start," click "All Programs," click "Real" and click "RealPlayer." (Or click the RealPlayer shortcut to open it)
    Click the "RealPlayer" menu button at the top-left corner of the RealPlayer window and click "Preferences."
    Click "Downloading and Recording" category near the bottom of the list of categories at the left side of the preferences window.
    Uncheck the "Enable Web Downloading and Recording" checkbox by clicking it.
    Click "OK."
    Re-open Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer.
    Worst comes to worst, uninstall real player completely or if there is another program that installed a problem plugin to FireFox, install that.
    Let us know how this worked out.

  • Flash Player Background Updater does not work

    Since FP 11.2 I was expecting all our workstations to update Flash Player automatically when an update is released. However since FP 11.3 was released a few days ago, all our users have been prompted to install the new version every day.
    Just to confirm we have "Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)" selected in Flash Player Settings Manager.
    Is this the correct behaviour or am I missing something?

    You don't say on what Mac, and you haven't actually asked a question, but perhaps this might be helpful:
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version, 10.2.152.25 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Note that the latest Flash Player update only works on YouTube with Safari in 32 bit mode - until YouTube correct this.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
