Adobe flash player / youtube

Hey guys, whenever I go to youtube on my blackbery storm and pick a video to watch it tells me I need the latest adobe flashplayer. So I click install and it takes me to the adobe page however when I click install it says a pop up will come up and you have to click yes (to run the intalation) the thing is the pop up never comes and I am left just sitting there watching it. Does anyone know how to install adobe flash player, or rather how to watch videos on youtube, because that is my ultamate goal. Thanks for your help!

youtube also has a mobile version you can view some videos on. using the browser on the BlackBerry navigate to m.youtube.com

After I download Adobe Flash Player, YouTube still doesn't work. How do I fix this?

I just got my MacBook, and I want to watch YouTube videos. I installed Adobe Flash Player, but when I go to the videos, YouTube says that I still need to install Adobe Flash Player. I have done this multiple times, and nothing has happened. Thanks.

Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility and select your volume and then select Repair Permissions. Same directions are also in the OS Mac Help Menu.

Adobe Flash Player , Youtube help

So when I attempt to view a video on Youtube, Youtube keeps telling me that I need to update Adobe Flash Player, however i do have the recent the recent version.It is happeing on other websites that require you to watch videos like Blogtv. Could someone help me please!

I thought that screen shot was showing where the SWF(Shockwave Flash) was located, not the Flash Player itself. Maybe I'm mixed up on that. Following is what I do know:-)
Like in the PC, the Flash Player files are in the Flash folder. However the add on, an ActiveX Control for IE, is located in the browser add ons. This ActiveX Control works with the Flash Player files located in the Flash folder.
Now exactly where the Flash Player files in Mac are located, I don't know. It has the SWF plug-in that also works with the Flash Player files in the Mac. So I would think the SWF, would be in the browser??? If I knew more about the Mac, I'd be more help. Do you know where any other plug-ins that you have are? Quicktime, Real Player, etc? Well whereever those
plug-ins are that is where the SWF would be also.
Believe it or not I did help someone that had a Mac and I knew less than I do now, so you can imagine. Anyway, between the screenshots he sent me we finally figured it out.
I have one more person that installed the SWF sometime back. Will have to search on that, can't remember the name, but will.
Hope some of this is helpful.

Download adobe flash player to iPad 4 using puffin web browser

Good Day, I am new to iPad4 and want to install Adobe Flash Player; Youtube suggested Puffin Web Browser and Icannot download it.
Please help,
EM

You can not install what does not exist.
There is not now nor ever been flash for iOS.
Adobe has ceased development of flash for all mobile devices.
Third party browsers offering flash support redirect all your traffic through their server, converting the flash to something viewable on the iPad.
Skyfire has quit that business because of not enough demand.
Swifter, photon and puffin should still be available.
If you can't find it in the store, it's not available to you.

I have Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in won't allow me to watch YouTube videos

Up until last week I had IE9 and was able to download and watch YouTube videos with my son and play Facebook games. Then one evening I tried to pull up a Yo Gabba Gabba video on YouTube and the video window was blank. I had watched this video the night before with him, and the only thing I can think of is there was a Flash Player update that tried to download. I saw several posts that suggested downloading a new broswer, but I waited for 3 nights thinking it was just a glitch. I finally gave up and sent a pm to one of my friends who is a Internet Service Technician. She told me to download Mozilla Firefox, which I did, and the problem seemed to be solved. I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos, as well as play games on Facebook. And it seemed my pages, pictures, etc. all downloaded 10x faster. That worked until the next evening and suddenly I once again could not download and watch YouTube videos.
I checked my system and it found that Adobe had done an automatic update so that instead of just having Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I now had Adobe Flash Player 13 plug-in. I also noticed that Adobe Air was downloaded on my computer. I went in and uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in and I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos. But when I tried to play games on Facebook I was told I would need to install at least Adobe Flash Player 10.0.2. I went to find that or an older version but each time I tried to download from Adobe I would get the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in version, and once again I was unable to download and watch YouTube videos. I was, however, able to play the games on Facebook again.
Remember when I just had Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I was able to do both while having Mozilla Firefox. I have looked all over the internet and I cannot find recent articles that talk about this problem. Can someone please tell me what I can do so that I can keep Mozilla Firefox, as it is 10X faster than IE9 and with Firefox my Facebook doesn't crash all of the time? But I also want to have the ability to download and watch YouTube videos with my son, as well as the play games on Facebook.
I should also note each time I went to uninstall Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in I received an error message saying there was a conflict with Mozilla Firefox and I first had to shut it down before the uninstall would proceed. Also, I received a reply on Adobe's Facebook page from a Tech who had me check to see if I had the latest version of Flash Player. I did have the most recent version. He then asked me to go to my add-ons and enable Shockwave. I followed the instructions and it was already enabled (or it said always activate). Neither of those helped me be able to download and watch YouTube videos. But I can still play Facebook games.

HT2506 After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer

After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer anymore. Any ideas would be helpful thanks

Merely clicking the Preview icon in the Dock doesn't cause it to open anything, unless you had one or more windows open the last time it quit.
If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
3. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
4. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.16 on Win 8.1 64bit ES logs out user at the end of Youtube film

Dear Players.
My Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.167 on Win 8.1 64bit ES (Spanish) in IE11 logs out user at the end of Youtube film. In Event viewer there is apparently no error information. I use Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook S6410, where on Windows Vista 32 bit and IE9 with current Flash there was no problem on Youtube films.
I have a feeling that initially after installing Windows 8 and 8.1 the films of Youtube finished correctly showing a mosaic of proposed next films. Now when the film ends, and the mosaic of the proposals should appear, the user is logged out.
I did all the Adobe recommendations, and it does not help. Yet the problem is only with Youtube for the moment. All other Flash content on other pages shows ok.
Any suggested solution?
Kind regards
Marcin Balcerzyk, Seville, Spain.

Hello,
Microsoft has been changing how they identify IE in the UserAgent string in IE11 (and in more recent versions of IE10). This has been occurring over various releases and it's not new to the latest updates. As you see, sometimes they identify as Netscape/Mozilla instead of IE. You can Google 'Microsoft User-agent string' the search will return various MSDN articles on this topic. Long story short, most websites use OS/browser version in the user-agent string to display content for that particular combination, however, Microsoft wants content developers to use feature detection, not browser detection. Compatibility view will work because Microsoft will change the user-agent string properties to something prior to the changes they've made. By doing this, Microsoft leaves it up to the content developer to update their site. Some have, some have not.

Adobe flash player not working for youtube

Hi,
While I was trying to install Adobe Flash Player for Microsoft Internet Explorer, the installation process got stuck half way and I tried to terminate the installation. But I had difficulty even terminating the installation process and IE and my computer crashed together. Normally I use Firefox to surf the internet, however after the computer crashed and when I restarted my computer, Youtube videos just couldn't be played in Firefox. What I have since done was to upgrade Firefox to 3.6.18 and I have uninstalled + reinstalled Adobe Flash Player. However that still doesn't solve the problem. The Youtube webpage only shows a black box with no control boxes. However other websites e.g. Metacafe, which uses Adobe Flash Player to play video files are working perfectly fine. This is highly puzzling to me and very frustrating. Could anyone please help me with it? .
How do I mark this thread as a question?
Now, I was reading other threads and came across 1 suggestion to change the http:// to https:// and now the youtube videos can be played. How amazing :O. But that would mean that everytime I have to manually change the URL to access the video. This is so strange. Any suggestion what has happened? Thanks.

Hi, Since youtube/Google have not responded to the issue, no one knows for sure what their problem is. This is what I found and posted here last night. Then what I found and posted this morning, which you evidently found about the https.
It appears either one or both are being used to try solving the issue. It's been users coming up with these, not youtube nor Google. It effects all browsers, even Chrome. The only one I haven't seen so far is Safari. Flash Player version doesn't matter, nor Operating Systems.
From last night:
YouTube just updated their video player, so the old version could still be cached in your browser causing it to fail. I would suggest rebooting, and if that's already done then make sure your drivers are up to date.
If that does not work make sure you download the new version of flash. Posted3 hours ago
No, I had the exact same problem but it worked the second I cleared my internet cache which could have to do with what another user above said about that.
Go to tools, options, clear recent history, and only check the 'cache' option, clear now, okay, and then refresh or exit it and open it again. I didn't even have to restart my browser. I'm using firefox too, by the way. Good luck! I hope this helped! Posted 2 hours ago
From today 7/7/11:
Now youtube is having major issues as you could read from what I posted. There is nothing wrong with your computer nor Flash Player. Here is what many users are doing in addition to clearing the cache, history etc.
They are using https instead of http. So try it. Here is one that you can check to see if it works. If so, use the https until youtube/google respond.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1RiMHpUi1w
Until we hear from youtube or our own Flash Player Team, since I'm sure they are in touch with youtube, I don't know what else to do.
My guess is, that if youtube changed their video player for the videos, then that would be a factor. Right now it is a wait and see.
Thanks,

I just updated my macbook pro and now every time i go to youtube it tells me I have to download the new version of adobe flash player so i do and it still wont let me play it ..

Assuming Allan's advice is not correct, and you do run the installer, I think I've heard of that problem and it involves removing the old Flash plug-ins, then install the new version. I don't use it so I don't know what they are called, but will be the /Library/Internet Plug-ins folder.
You can go here and enable HTML5 in YouTube so you don't have to use Flash: http://www.youtube.com/html5
Most(?) of the content is HTML5, but you may run into videos where you still need Flash.

In eBay & YouTube, I get the message to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player; I have gone through the download and installation procedure several times, but still get the same message - why can't I install the latest version on Firefox?

In eBay, I was trying to upload pictures when I got this message: "You need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to use the standard picture uploader.
Download and install the latest version from Adobe before continuing."
In YouTube, when trying to watch a video, I got this message: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
I have gone through the procedure for downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, but still get the same messages when I reopen Firefox and revisit these sites.
There does not seem to be the same problem with Safari, which runs the latest version of Adobe Flash Player with no trouble.
I am using an iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.6.7.

You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.
*http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

After installing Mozilla Firefox 20.0 with Adobe Flash Player 11.6, YouTube videos won't load properly.

YouTube videos worked fine before installing Adobe Flash Player. When installed the screen flickers after one second, rewinds to the beginning, then plays normally. This doesn't occur when I use Internet Explorer. I have reinstalled both Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Flash Player many times but nothing seems to work . Downgrading Adobe Flash Player didn't work either. It seems like Firefox is the problem but I'm not completely sure.

Hi All,
Thanks a lot "cor-el". I also suffered from the above issue. And after I disabled the protected mode by editing "mms.cfg" file the issue got resolved. Now flash player is working fine.

Hi, Your Flash files are all correct for IE. I'm sure they are also for FF, since Flash Player is working.
What you can try is something that has helped other users and maybe this will help you with IE. Try turning off the User Account Control and then Restart your computer and see if IE is working now.
Open User Accounts by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking User Accounts and Family Safety.
and then clicking User Accounts. Click Turn User Account Control on or off.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Select the Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer check box to turn on UAC, or clear the check box to turn
off UAC, then click OK.
Let me know whenever you can, no hurry.
Thanks,
