The core problem is I can't open links that open PDF documents from Safari. Any ideas why this is occurring?
Windows XP Prof.,Ver.2002, serv. pack 3, 2.26 GHz , 2.96 GB RAM

Your right: not clear. I'll try again. I may be in the wrong forum area of Adobe. The Safari on my PC: when I click on a link (that successfully opens on another web browser as a
"PDF") for a PDF document (say a brochure or something similar), I get a window that has "Adobe Acrobat" in the title bar. The message in the window states "There was an error opening
this document. This file can not be found". I have the following Adobe Plug-ins installed.

I have "block pop up windows" off (safari preferences). The bottom line is I can't open PDF documents as a link from a web page. Do you have any idea why this may be occurring?
I'd appreciate your comment/thoughts

Not quite sure what your question is - I simply don't understand it. 
Shouldn't you rather install Adobe Reader to deal with PDF documents?
Please explain in more details if that doesn't answer your question.

  • For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    It happened w/ my MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon about 5 months ago; tried everything I could think of including multiple downloads of Flash, and hadn't seen any solutions here.  Adobe insisted many times that I download & update, but the newest vers. wouldn't work on the computer.
    On checking Adobe/Flash was reading the computer as being an earlier model. So the new version of Flash wouldn't work w/ it.  Snow Leopard 10.6.8 was being read correctly but not the computer model (can't remember what MP model  it was reading).
    Nothing worked. So -- a very old PC trick: If nothing else works get the hammer out and bludgeon it-- might work. So I reset everything by putting the Snow Leopard  install disk in, held down 'C' on restart and let it run. 
    Didn't take anything off the HDD first, just ran the install disk over everything.
    The experts on the forums are probably cringing right now & I'd like very much for them to jump in. Love to know how my computer model was being mis-read. All I can say is, for the brave and desparate, it worked for me. Something to keep in mind.
    It helped that I had a new computer on order & have 2 backups, one being mandatory. Might work only the one time but worth a check.
    Good luck on working this one out.

  • Adobe Flash player plugin can not be instleded in my firfox disktop

    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
    *an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only
    *a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox
    *On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
    '''''You do not appear to have the Plugin version for Firefox installed. ''''' If you did, in Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash ''(version)''". If "Shockwave Flash" is there and is disabled, click the "Enable" button.
    Check your Plugins often --> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
    *only the most popular/used Plugins are known by this page
    *page will detect only installed, '''''enabled''''' Plugins
    '''<u>Install or update Adobe Flash</u>'''<br />
    #'''<u>Using Firefox</u>''', go to the following link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later. Un-check any items on that page that you do not want to download (i.e., "McAfee Security Scan Plus":
    #*http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    #When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
    #Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop

  • I need an install for Mac OS X10.5.8 adobe flash player and can't find it as I uninstalled my original one

    I uninstalled adobe flash player from my Mac Leopard OS X 10.5.8 and need  to get a new version but it asks for the 10.6 before installing and apple won't accept it or the installation is not complete.  Now I have no adobe and can't access any apps period without that and the plug-in.  The directions are too confusing.

    Okay, a few comments... first, that tech at Future Shop has his numbers wrong. As of January of this year, according to my testing, Norton is actually only 73% protection against currently-active Mac malware. That's pretty darn bad, especially when you factor in the fact that Norton is well-known for causing problems. You may think Norton hasn't caused you any problems, but if you've had it installed for 15 years, you'd probably be shocked at how your machine would perform without it. It's probably a large part of the reason that you keep seeing that rainbow wheel cursor.
    If Norton's log shows no malware, that doesn't mean Norton caught it, it means Norton never saw any malware to begin with. Which, since it's not so good at spotting it, doesn't really mean much.
    Mac malware is rare enough that you've probably never seen any. However, note that running an outdated version of Flash is one of the dangerous things that could change that. Insecure versions of Flash were known earlier this year to be exploited by Mac malware. All you'd have to do is visit the wrong website and you'd be infected.
    For this reason, regardless of what you do about anti-virus software, I strongly advise that you not install one of those outdated versions of Flash. If your computer is able to run Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), you should upgrade to that system, then update it fully (Apple menu -> Software Update). Not only is there no known malware currently capable of infecting a fully up-to-date Snow Leopard system, but you'll also be able to run a more secure version of Flash.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard here:

  • I can't play my games on Facebook.Adobe Flash player plugin Crashed keeps coming up.I have updated adobe,did not help.

    I cant play my games (FarmVille FrontierVille) On Facebook,Adobe Flash player plugin crashed keeps coming up.I have updated to the newest file.No good.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://Facebook.com

    I am having this same problem. Before the updates, the Adobe Flash player NEVER crashed in Firefox (it did in Google Chrome all the time) and now it's crashing in all my favorite games....Farmville, Frontierville, Yoville, and Treasure Isle. It doesn't seem to be effecting the less-detailed Zynga games, such as Mafia Wars or Vampire Wars; and I can go into more detailed games that aren't Zynga and they seem to work fine too. I am not 100% sure what exactly the problem is, or who is causing it because I had a Firefox update, and then an Adobe update to the 10.1 beta. So I'm not sure if it's one or the other, or both of them put together.
    I have uninstalled/reinstalled the flash player so many times my mind is numb, and even tried to find the one I had prior to this new 10.1 and nothing has worked. I even did what that link Chris posted to do, and I thought it had worked at first...I actually got to go into my Farmville and Treasure Isle for a little bit, then it turned around and crashed again.
    This is literally driving me crazy trying to figure it all out.....and it upsets me that everything was fine one day, then after some updates, everything is messed up. And it's just my luck that it effected some of the games I like to play the most.

    Hi, glad that worked for you. Also thanks for the explanation as how you came about this. Yes, from my understanding any Install of the CS5, even a trial version Installs the 10.1 (beta/prerelease) versions. It is not clear to me or others why the 10.1 was used in the CS5 instead of the latest version (10.0.45.2). My only guess is that the 10.1 is very close to being released as a shipping version (final release) to the public. The 10.1 had a target date of the first half of 2010. Perhaps that was the reasoning. This is just my opinion:-)
    As I said, many users are having this problem, not just with the CS5, but they Install the 10.1 thinking that will solve whatever problem they may be having with the latest version.
    Your thread is very helpful for other users that may be having the exact problem that you were. For this reason if you marked your thread as answered, they would read it first.

  • My Adobe Flash Player Plugin keeps crashing. Annoying

    I play games from the developer Zynga and I keep getting Adobe Flash Player plugin has crashed. I downloaded Mozilla Firefox thinking that I would have more luck with it than IE. Not so far. What can I do to correct this?

    Reloading the page will often get the video, game or animation to play again.
    If Flash continues to crash, updating to the latest version of Flash should fix the issue.
    As this has been happening to you for a long time, try this too...
    Go to this Flash help page on adobe.com.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html?promoid=ISMRY
    Right-click on the box that lists your Flash player version and then click Settings… in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel.
    Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
    Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    Restart Firefox.

  • Adobe Flash Player Plugin MSI is a version behind

    Hi ,
    Lately I have been noticing that the MSI pack for the Adobe Flash Player Plugin is a version or 2 behind.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html
    The .exe file is up to date but the MSI is still at 11.5.502.146 when it should be at 11.6.602.168. Does anyone one know what the issue might be?
    Thanks, Appreciated.

    Hi Joshua,
    The MSI pack contains the latest version and are posted here for downloading: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html.  Can you post the URL you are using to download the MSI pack that is several versions behind?
    Thank you.

  • Netgear STORA access crashes Adobe flash player plugin

    Hi,
    I am having trouble accessing my Netgear 'STORA' NAS with firefox.
    The 'STORA' uses '''Adobe flash player '''(firefox plugin) as a base for the internet 'landing page' it uses for log in.
    Each time I try to access the device over the net with firefox, I get a report that the plugin container for firefox has stopped working then, on the firefox page, it reports that the plugin has crashed.
    I have used various machines over my LAN to try to access the 'STORA' with firefox:
    Desktop - Win 7 home premium 64bit (main machine)
    Laptop - Win 7 home 32 bit
    Laptop - Win Vista (home!) 32bit
    Also, I have had family and friends try to access the 'STORA' over the net with firefox from the UK (home country) and from Germany.
    All report that they cannot access the device as plugin crashes.
    All machines tried can access the 'STORA' via MS IE browser!
    All machines at home are up to date regards firefox, Adobe flash player and OS versions / updates and I am assured this is true for the other machines too. And all machines are more than adequate to run respective os and programs etc.
    On my main machine (see list) I used fire fox 'about:config' to negate the associated timer for the plugin as suggested on the mozilla site:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/The+Adobe+Flash+plugin+has+crashed?style_mode=inproduct#Disable_hang_protection
    Doing this had no noticable affect on performance and the adobe flash player plugin still crashed.
    I have informed Netgear of the issue some time ago and have no reply. When I tried to inform Adobe a few days ago, the bug report facility failed and I could not get back into it.
    Firefox is my preferred browser and I would like to use it to access the 'STORA'.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Regards,
    Michael.

    Hello all,
    My doubt was correct. It was all due to the blank device list. After lot of struggle I found this solution worked for me:
    1. As soon as the plug-in tries to access webcam, it will show you "Adobe Flash Player Settings" box
    2. Click Deny then Close to close it
    3. Now press tab key on keyboard. It will highlight (in yellow) and show list of devices in video device dropdown control (This could be little bit tricky and you need to put little bit more efforts to see the list). You can now select your webcam as device here.
    4. Press Tab key again to go audio dropdown and select audio device.
    5. Then right click and bring up "Adobe Flash Player Settings" again.
    6. Under Microphone and Camera tabs, make sure we select same devices we selected in 3 & 4 above
    7. Come back to privacy tab and this time chose "Allow" and then close "Adobe Flash Player Settings" box
    8. You should now see the camera images in the plug-in
    Conclusion: This is a workaround worked for me. Plug-in is quite unstable and there is definitely something here Adobe Flash Player plug-in developers need to do about.
    Hope this workaround helps many other users.
    Thanks,

  • NPAPI Adobe Flash Player plugin Google Chrome

    My NPAPI Adobe Flash Player plugin of Google Chrome just suddenly disappeared from the plugin list, making me unable to download some videos and load some websites. Does anybody know how can I solve this problem? Where can I download the plugin? Thanks!

    Hi Rooney,
    We've not been able to reproduce the issue you're experiencing.  We'd appreciate it if you could run the shim installer in debug mode which will create a log file that we can examine. To run the installer in debug mode, please do the following:
    Download the shim installer (it deletes itself when executed so you may no longer have it saved locally).
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder where the installer was downloaded to
    Launch the command-window
    In modern mode, enter cmd in the search field
    In desktop mode, right click on start > select Run > type cmd in the text field > click OK
    Drag and drop the installer onto the Command Window, hit space and type /debugshould look similar to: C:\Users\labuser\Downloads\install_flashplayer16x32_gtbd_chrd_dn_aaa_aih.exe /debugnote the space between 'exe' and '/debug'
    The User Account Control dialog window will display, asking to allow the program to make changes, click Yes
    The installer dialog window will display, follow the instructions to install.
    When installation completes, a file, host.developer.log, will be created in the same location where the installer was saved to.
    Please share the host.developer.log file using the instructions here, How to share a document.
    Thank you.
