Adobe Flash Player freezes up mid-installation.

I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.
I successfully downloaded the newest Adobe flash player, but every time it begins to install, it stops when the bar reaches 32% (I have tried to install it five times).
I have had all browsers and other applications closed.
Help!

Hey m_vargas, I followed the troubleshooting page you posted. I uninstalled the Flash Player (and deleted the related folders that I was instructed to get rid of, see this link: Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS). I then downloaded the Flash Player again, and while it was installed, it froze at 25%. See the attached picture:
Do you have any specific instructions I could try?

  • Adobe flash player freezes constantly

    hi,
    my flash player has been constantly freezes whenever i start using it. Sometimes it freeze after 20 mins, sometimes an hour or so. I have tried FAQ already and tried google chrome, firefox and IE but all of them freezes when it comes to flash player.
    OS Name
    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
    System Type
    x64-based PC
    Processor
    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4771 CPU @ 3.50GHz, 3501 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
    AMD Radeon R9 200 Series
    P.S flash player is most updated version.
    Your Flash Version
    16.0.0.305
    Would be great if you could help me out.
    Many thanks!

    This is what I wrote at another post:
    I too have experienced this problem and was hoping to find help here. Another person has experienced a very similar problem, but without response here: Adobe flash player freezes constantly
    This all started when I updated to version 16.0.0.305. When I downgrade to version 16.0.0.296, the problem is resolved. However 16.0.0.305 is a bug fix that patches a critical zero day exploit, so I do not want to stick with it for very long.
    I hope this is a known issue and Adobe will be releasing a patch for it soon.

  • ADOBE FLASH PLAYER FREEZE

    I have to update adobe flash player on my HP Pavilion m7 (with windows 7) but every time I try to download it the installer starts up and freezes (as shown below). I have already deleted the previous version of flash player on my computer and deleted the folder associated with it and tried restarting my computer but that hasn't worked either. HELP ME!

    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Adobe Flash Player 11.5 Beta Installation

    To be able to use the Adobe Flash Player 11.5 Beta, do I need to download and install both the installer and the debugger files that are on the following link?  http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplatformruntimes/flashplayer11-5/?tabID=details#ta bTop

    Just the installer.  The debugger is useful only if you want to debug Flash content that you're writing.

  • Adobe Flash Player freezes at 25% on Mac OS X Yosemite????

    I have been trying to update my Adobe Flash Player because it will not let me watch any videos online. Ever since I updated my OS X Yosemite, my computer says my flash player is outdated. I tried to delete the download after about 30 minutes because it froze at 25%. I then redownloaded it and it has been frozen again at 25% for over two hours. I am frustrated and I don't know what else to do!!!!!!!!!

    This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
    If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
    1.)      Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    2.)      Download the stand-alone installer from  http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

  • Adobe Flash player freezes on RTMPT stream in Ubuntu 10.10

    For the past few months all flash players have been crashing under ubuntu, when I watch a live stream with Flowplayer using RTMPT, on port 80
    88.
    The stream works on Mac OS and Windows Vista.
    The stream starts fine and freezes if I switch between tabs, or even if I don't do anything for a few seconds.
    At the moment I am using the latest flash player - flashplayer10_2_r2_32bit_linux_012611.tar.gz
    My OS is Ubuntu 10.10
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Anton

    Hi dandab…
    Although, I had installed SubInACL <http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=23510>  once without solving my problem, I uninstalled and reinstalled it and Adobe Flash Player 11 is now up and running.  Thank you very much.

  • Adobe flash player freezes windows 7 Pro 64 bit

    ''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/784568]''
    When I watch videos the flash player will freeze and I have to use the task manager to close the video and any other page that may be open. I am using windows 7 Pro 64 bit. This happens quite often

    I have the same problem. Firefox 3 and 4 randomly freezes when watching videos on youtube. I work on many computers and this problem only on my laptop HP ProBook.
    Reinstalling the operating system did not solve the problem. OS: Windows 7 Professional x64 Czech language. I use the latest version of Adobe's Flash Player. Thank you for your help.

  • How to install Adobe flash-player on Macbook mid 2007

    as I press "INSTALL" button (flash-player 11.2) nothing happens. I know that my computer does not match requirements of 11.2 version, but please let me know if there is a suitable solution for my case.

    If that requirement is significant that these flash players require 128MB of vram then I suppose this whole thing is an academic exercise with you having only 64MB.  Perhaps you can hunt down a version 10.x of the Adobe Flash installer (not sure where) but again whether that will work with lion is yet another question.  So you may be between a rock and a hard place trying to use flash with lion.
    I believe Chrome has flash support buillt in so maybe you should try that when needing to play flash videos.

  • Frequent Fails when installing Adobe Flash Player (Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1)

    Constantly see the following error message from Adobe Flash Player Installer:
    Error has been encountered. Close this window and try downloading again.
    What in heck does that error message mean?
    This message occurs most of the time when I try to update to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.
    It would be one thing if it was only occurring on Windows XP, but it shows up on Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1 frequently.
    Just for curiousity looked at the Windows 8.1 Event Viewer and NO error message shows up there.
    Would be nice to:
    (1) know what the error really is so that it can be reported to you to get it fixed once and for all.
    (2) have Adobe Flash Installer NOT to delete itself every time that the installer is run.
    (3) have an OFFLINE download installer to download and install Adobe Flash Player without the MacAfee installer.
    (4) have Adobe UNCHECK that the Install MacAfee installer that you have to opt out of each time you do an Adobe Flash Player download. You should make it to OPT IN not OPT OUT! Don't need another program installed without my permission. This causes issues when I have to uninstall MacAfee on computers that others in my family use.
    It seems to takes up to 20 times to download the Adobe installer over a period of many days or weeks to get it to install properly.
    I have written software for over 36 years as a computer programmer and now Senior Software Developer. I have do installers on my own and have to figure out how to solve my own issues on the installers to get them fixed.
    This issue doesn't seem to be tied to any particular version of Windows... Same issue occurs on Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1! The ONLY commonality seems to be Adobe Flash Player.
    Certainly Adobe should be smart enough to fix this issue once and for all.
    If the issue is that there is a network congestion error that it cannot download the installer, please say so and please please please DO NOT delete the downloaded installer every time that it is run on a PC.
    I'd like to fix the security issues with the Adobe Flash Player AS SOON as there is a patch for it. I don't like having security issues over a long period of time.
    Please address this issue so that I can put this to bed and not have to keep sending you messages that once again the Adobe Flash Player Installer is yet again broken!
    Certainly you have a staff at Adobe that CAN fix this problem quickly!

    more information about errors can be found in the FlashInstall.log file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash (and the SysWOW64 equivalent on 64-bit systems)
    the offline installers (below) do not delete themselves
    you can find the offline installers
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    the offline installers are not bundled with any 3rd-party crapware

  • Adobe flash player won't load my webcam

    Regarding Lion OS X 10.7.1; I'm on a website that uses Adobe Flash player to use my webcam but it won't work.
    I did some research and enabled Java (see screenshot) and even enabled 'applet plug-in and Web Start applications' and I don't even know what that means lol, but I did it anyway.
    I've even downloaded the latest Adobe Flash Player (I think it installs automatically) and re-booted, but no good.
    I've gone on YIM and the cam works, even on iChat and the webcam can be selected and works.
    Any Apple Lion users have any solutions??
    Thanks!
    users??

    Hi,
    Do you also have the Google Video/Voice plug-in ? (For Web Chatting with Video on the Google Web Mail or iGoogle pages)
    This has been known to conflict with Flash.

  • Loading Adobe Flash Player - Without McCaffeys

    I don't know about anyone else but I find that the box to automatically load McCaffeys when you update is completely wrong. If I want it I will check the box! I have a program that works better and if I just let it update it loads  McCaffeys which screws up my computer.
    I think Adobe should uncheck the load McCaffeys automatically.

    Hi, eidnolb:
                            First thank you so much for your quick reply.
                            I have got as Operative system Windows XP with service pack 3.
                             So, I have two navigators because sometimes any virtual platform, don't works correctly under Mozilla Firefox.
                             So to speack I often use Mozilla Firefox 3.6.2 version, to navigate.
                             In spite I use Internet explorer 6.0 to follow some online courses.
    I hope, you could help me.
    I'ts very difficult to uninstal complements Adobe DLM and GetAdobe plus, after Adobe flash player installation.  I'm really sorry to ask you something like that, but I like to be update, doing updates by myself. And the Adobe flash player necesary complements during installation works out a nuisance to me.
    I don't want to cause you any trouble with my reply...
    I'm very gratefull for your help.
               Sincerly yours David Harper Zou.

  • Flash Player freezes after a few seconds of playing

    Adobe Flash Player freezes after playing for a few seconds.
    It does this in both Mozilla Firefox and in Google Chrome.
    It does this regardless of how much of the file has been buffered
    (it's not just pausing and waiting for buffer)
    I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed.
    I have the latest version of Mozilla Firefox installed.
    I have the latest version of Google Chrome installed.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Flash Player.
    I've tried disabling hardware accelleration.
    I've tried increasing the buffer size.
    I've tried setting the buffer to 0
    I've tried clearing the appdata cache

    fourstrings411,
    Could you give our 11.4 beta release a try to see if that resolves the playback problem?  If it does not, please see this FAQ for other possible solutions.  In particular, look towards the bottom for instructions on rolling back versions or disabling protected mode.
    How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Please use the offline installer:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg
    Download the install package from this link.  Double-click to open it from your downloads folder; when you see the red "install" folder, right-click it and select "Show Package Contents"; click on the  "Contents" folder; then click on the "Resources" folder; then double-click on the "Adobe Flash Player.pkg" file. The installation will start.  It worked for me.... FINALLY!! I hope it also works for you.
