Adobe Flash Player won't install into Firefox, even when using the offline installer, and downloading it through Firefox
Ever since the latest update of the Adobe Flash Player, I think it came out this week.
I can't seem to get it to work with Firefox, I have downloaded the installer, it installs successfully, then I check in Firefox to see if it works. It says that I need to install it?!?! I have tried the offline installer of the Adobe Flash Player, I also tried installing it through Firefox (when you click "Install missing plugins"). That just fails instantly.
I posted on the Adobe Forums, but no luck.
I am getting frustrated with this! I have never had problems with installing the Flash Player, and I didn't install this version any different from the previous versions. Flash Player was working well until the latest update of Flash Player was released.
If I go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash, it shows all the Flash Player files, but it's not showing up in the Firefox addon manager, and not working on YouTube, or any other Flash Player sections of sites.
I installed the 64-bit version, because I have a 64-bit Windows.
It works on IE, but not on Firefox.
It seems like it installs fine, but then it doesn't looks like it "installs" it into Firefox. Or whatever...
Also, I have tried uninstalling it with the Adobe 64-bit Uninstaller, restarting my PC after uninstalling, then install the 64-bit Flash Player for Firefox... doesn't work.
I have done EVERYTHING I can do to try and get it to work, no luck...
Please, any help with be appreciated!
Where can I find direct downloads of Flash Player 11 for Windows or Macintosh?

Adobe Flash Player Won't Install
My OS is Vista and my my browser is Firefox. When the dialog box initially appears that says save file everything's fine but when I try to double click the file nothing happens. I have uninstalled my previous version because it was skipping too much. and I've tried disabling my anti-malware and nothing helps. Any suggestions?
Sounds like there is some weird issue with the download going on. I'd try downloading the offline installer and seeing if that will run. Try this link first: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe
If that doesn't work, then try:
http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox/
If this fixes the issue, please mark this answer as 'correct' so I can receive credit Let me know if this works! If not, I've got a few other ideas. -
Adobe Flash Player won't install on Firefox
When I attempt to install 32-bit Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.55 onto my Firefox (I use Windows Vista), it will not download and simply stops at 95%. I wait for 30 minutes, and it still doesn't download, so I close it. I would please like help. Thank you for responding to and/or reading this.

HT3810 adobe flash player won't install on safari 10.6.8
I have uninstalled adobe, cleared the downloads in finder, reinstalled adobe, and cleared the cache, cookies in safari.
Adobe won't run in Firefox either.
Correction: I can install adobe flash player on both safari and firefox, but when I try to play a youtube video, I get a message saying I have to install adobe flash player. I don't know what else to do.
Lastly, some forms won't open when I click on them. I get a dark grey page.http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.ht ml

Adobe Flash Player won't install on Mac OS X 10.6.4
I cannot get Adobe Flash Player to install properly on an iMac running OS X 10.6.4. I download the software, run the installer, it appears to install successfully but I receive an error message when I attempt to run a video on Safari: You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. When I view Library > Application Support > Adobe there is no Flash Player folder. What's strange is that Flash Player was working properly one week prior. My machine specifics:
Processor: 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz RAM
Safari: Version 5.0.1 (6533.17.8)Hi, Solved your own problem, Cool
Thanks for the feedback, always helps.

Adobe flash player won re-install
A few days ago i started experiencing problems with video players and adobe flash . For some reason in the middle of a video the screen turned green and started making static noise.
I also couldnt use some websites and their features because they said i needed an upgraded version of adobe flash player.When i went to download the latest version it said "chrome already has a built in adobe flash player and will update it". I went to the control panel and uninstalled adobe flash, when i went to re-install it, first the installation went to 60% and then said lost "connection.retrying connection"When i tried installing it a few more times it went to 100% successfully, but then an error occured and said "the side by side configuration of this application is incorrect...."
the weird thing is i dont have flash installed, but yet i am still experiencing the same problems as the ones i had when i had an old version of flash (nothing is worse, it stayed the same)
Please help me.
Problems i am experiancing:
1. All the video players, except Youtube either wont start or regularly turn green and start making static noise.
2.Sites like photo editing sites say i have an old version of flash player
3.Sometimes pictures glitch out and apear deformed and pixelatedCould you please try the following: It has some steps that you need to perform after uninstalling.

Re: Adobe Flash Player Won't Install
Hi
I need some help with flash player - I tried to upgrade as it was crashing on websites, downloaded the latest version, started the installation but when it get's to the final installation screen it just hangs. After about 10 minutes I close the window and get an Adobe Flash is not responding message and the Close the program or wait for the program to respond.
I followed the troubleshooting instructions and checked the system requirements - all good
Turned off kasperskys
Uninstalled it (think I got all the files but not 100% sure - so maybe that might be an issue) and rebooted
Tried to reinstall same problem.
Installed Shockwave plugin - same problem
I am running Windows 7 on HP Pavilion dv5, 32 bit and have checked the system requirements and all is ok.
I am using Firefox 10.0.2
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance

Adobe flash player won't install, it was poping up and I deleted it
I am using Internet explorer 8 and I was having a problem on a site I could not log on so they had me delete all cookies and browsing history and restart that solved their problem but now I had the problem of adobe poping up all the time every time I opened ANY new tab it poped up with the message that adobe was interfering and do I want it to run. I am NOT going to keep clicking EVERY time I use my damned browser. so I deleted adobe and tried to reinstall it but now it will not reinstall. I says nothing when I reinstall then when I try to install again it says it is already installed but when I check with unistall it is NOT there.
You can see with the diagnotic page what my system isIt's the security settings of Internet Explorer that caused these pop-ups; just readjust the security settings, and these pop-ups will no longer occur.
To reinstall Flash Player, try a clean install: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315 -
Adobe Flash Player won't install on Yosemite 10.10
The installer gets to 95% complete and then chugs eternally. I have tried the offline uploader.
To clarify, I've followed all the instructions on the Adobe website. I've uninstalled my flash player and tried a clean install with both the online and offline installers. Always the same result. Stops at 95%.
