Adobe Flash Will Not Update

Whenever I try to play a RealPlayer video, I get the message "RealPlayer needs to install more components," which takes me to the Adobe Flash page.
I install Adobe Flash, but get the same message again when I try to play a video.

What is your operating system & version?
If Windows, did you install the ActiveX or plugin?
Does Real Player require the ActiveX or plugin?

My adobe cloud will not update on my iMac.

My adobe cloud will not update on my iMac. Anyone have advice? I need it to work as soon as possible to make a deadline.

Long titles seem to be happening a lot since the last forum software update so it's not just you!
There is no Lightroom CC. You get the latest version (currently 5.4) with Creative Cloud, and so the CC app is correct in stating that your LR is up to date. Unlike Photoshop and most of the other Creative Cloud applications, Lightroom is not branded as "CC" because it's also available separately as a stand-alone perpetual licence product. When 5.5 (or 6.0 - or even a CC-only version) are released in the future, the CC app should prompt you to update and so in the meantime you're good to go.

Adobe 10 Will Not Update, Vista SP2

Adobe 10 will not function. I've spent days going through support recommendations. I've performed all fixes more than once. I've started and restarted. I've checked and rechecked settings. I've turned off protection programs. I've performed manual downloads. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. The update will not function. It appears to install okay, that displays as if everything did install okay, but I cannot see the Adobe page "version" display; nor can I view any independent web videos (vids do play fine from an email link, using Windows Media Player).
Please - someone - help? I'm an average user, please go easy on me.
Internet Explorer 8
MS Vista Home Premium SP2
X86-based PC
Windows System 32

I use MS IE version 8. That is the browser that I know I have or use . I've never deliberately used or downloaded another one.
The only IE Add On I recognized in my Manage Add On list was SPYBOT. It's on my Desktop but it's not real time, it's the free version that I run manually. I did not see MALWAREBYTES listed in my IE Add Ons, but I also have that free version on my Desktop and I only use it manually. Other than that were items like "CBrowserHelperObject" by Dell. I don't know if that falls in the category of what you're looking for? I have NO idea where the "McAfee" thing came from, I've never knowingly had it. I last used the paid AVAST version (before this guy changed it over); and before that used a paid version of Trend Micro.
I looked at ESET's properties and there was listed in their files a "Mozilla Thunderbird" Folder - I do not use the Mozilla Browser. I only use the IE Browser. I've no idea what that Folder is for or if it falls in what you want to know?
Aside from this, the only other thing I know to do is to Print Screen the list I saw in my "Manage Add Ons." Probably more info that you want or need (or maybe can read?), I just don't know what, exactly, I am looking for?
I do not see any recognizable IE Add Ons from ESET, my current AV program. If it matters, when I looked at its' Properties it reads as "CREATER OWNED," as if taking precedence over the SYSTEM? If there are other places I can look to offer more info, please tell me.
Thank you for your patience. You are most kind. Don't go eat dinner, okay?

Adobe Flash will not install on Windows 7 x64

Hello,
I find myself in a bit of a pickle, which I have neither definitive answer nor logic to why this is happening. Whenever I install Adobe Flash I get an error message in a popup window as described below.
Host
Unable to load application configuration
First of all I thought…? This can happen if the processor clock is out on the motherboard. I rebooted and checked the time and date stamp in the BIOS and it’s correct. Everything else works fine; it’s just Adobe Flash that is causing the problem. I am running Windows 7 x64 and selected Windows 7 x64 when I installed Flash. Shockwave, Air and all other Adobe applications were fine… it’s just Adobe Flash that is causing the problem. Any Answers would be appreciated; I’m left scratching my head with dismay because I cannot for the life of me know what is causing this error message.
It’s the same for MSIE9 as well it will not install and comes up with the same error message.
Thanks
[RESOLVED]
I took a second look at the BIOS and didn’t spot this the first time I looked. The time was correct, but out by 20 seconds which was the reason why updates and installations were in disarray. I never would have thought 20 seconds would have made much of a difference. But it does and I corrected the time to the precise seconds to pinpoint accuracy, saved the BIOS and loaded the OS and tried again and it worked first time.
So the moral of this topic is, if you’re getting a message in a window which says the following…
Host
Unable to load application configuration
Check the clock on your BIOS first, if the seconds are out but the time is correct, this the likelihood of the problem is being caused by the BIOS clock.

What is the exact error you are getting?
Have you tried to run the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#Ins tall_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment ?
If that still causes you an error please post your Windows version & edition.
P.S. if your Windows user account has administrative permissions, then you don't need to go into the BIOS to correct your clock; you can do it from withing Windows, either manually, or using Atomic Clock Sync.

I need this plug in but it will not download in any fashion in fact Tools shows no plugins, nor is Adobe of any kind in programs.
I also tried to download by disabling security settings and then another time the firewall and then another time putting Mozilla in safe mode. Can not get it to download just get a blank page that says downloads complete but they are not. can not play utube or news videos or daily motion vids.

You have Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45 (that is Adobe Flashplayer) installed '''''and not disabled''''' in ''Tools > Add-ons > Plug-ins''. It shows with the information automatically submitted with your question (click "More system details" to the right of your original question; if were disabled, it would not show up there).
Read the following carefully...
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
'''Install or update Adobe Flash''' 
#'''Using Firefox''', 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
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
#To update/install the ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''', repeat the process, '''but use IE to go to the above website'''.

Adobe Reader will not update from 11.0.0.6 to 11.0.0.7

I have tried installing the update to my Windows 8.1 machine, but it fails every time. When I right click and run as administrator from the download, it extracts, then pops up with:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
From the Adobe ARM.log, there is an ERROR_SUCCESS that tells me it stayed at version 11.0.0.6.
From the AdobeSFX.log, there is a "Program finished with exit code:1642". (Which just tells me the same thing as the error pop up box.)
From the MSI Installation log there is this:
: Unknown\Absent: {AC76BA86-7AD7-0000-2550-7A8C40011007} - C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Setup\{AC76BA86-7AD7-1033-7B44-AB0000000001}\RDC\AdbeRdrUpd11007.msp
The upgrade cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade.

: MainEngineThread is returning 1642
I am testing the update before doing an enterprise rollout to Win8 and Win7 machines. I have tried the standalone update on other computers (Win7 and Win8) and I cannot get it to update.
I downloaded from here: Adobe - Adobe Reader Distribution Selecting Windows 8, English, and 11.0.0.7
From Administrative Command Line:
AdbeRdr11007_en_US.exe -nos_oC:\Users\$$$$$$$\Desktop\Reader -nos_ne
msiexec /a C:\Users\$$$$$$$\Desktop\Reader\Acroread.msi network location: \\$$$$$$$\apps\adobe\reader11_0_0_7\
msiexec /a \\$$$$$$$\apps\adobe\reader11_0_0_7\AcroRead.msi /p C:\Users\$$$$$$$\Desktop\Reader\AdbeRdrUpd11007.msp
This is not working either - which is not surprising considering that the update itself will not run. I can only guess that somehow the 11.0.0.6 update was incorrect somehow, but I have been using the same process to update the machines for more than 5 update cycles, so I am not sure what might have changed.
The point is, I do not want to do a complete uninstall and clean install on all of the machines in the company. Can anyone give direction with this?

I disagree about corrupted install. Every 11.0.6 pc in my enterprise also cannot upgrade to 11.0.7. We make AIPs following the same process for each patch. Something is not right with 11.0.7 MUI. I can create the AIP for 11.0.7 but cannot get the GPO to upgrade previous installations. I think something is seriously wrong with the 11.0.7 MUI msp
The upgrade cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade.
I am using the 11.0 MUI installer to create the AIP and then I patch the AIP with 11.0.7 MUI .msp file per normal practice like I always do. I am able to sucessfully create the 11.0.7 AIP without errors but none of my 11.0.6 MUI clients will upgrade successfully and are left at 11.0.6.
Something is broken with the 11.0.7 MUI .msp file.
Like I said, we do this the same way each time depending on quarterly update or security update and it ALWAYS works fine. This is well documented. We are following the exact same steps and something is seriously wrong with the new 11.0.7 MUI .msp file. It will not properly upgrade 11.0.6 MUI installations.
We are using the 11.0 MUI as the base for slipstreaming the new 11.0.7 MUI patch.
STEPS:
1. Download AdbeRdr11000_mui_std.zip and extract to temp directory.
2. Run: msiexec /a c:\aip\temp\acroread.msi TARGETDIR="c:\aip\11.0.7"
3. Copy the AdbeRdrUpd11007_MUI.msp patch to c:\aip\11.0.7\
4. Run: msiexec /a c:\aip\11.0.7\acroread.msi /p c:\aip\11.0.7\AdbeRdrUpd11007_MUI.msp
5. Choose c:\aip\11.0.7 as the installation folder
6. When completed Copy c:\aip\11.0.7 to \\servername\AIP\
7. Configure GPO to upgrade over the top of existing installation of previous GPO 11.0.6 MUI using the correct UNC folder
This has worked every time other than this 11.0.7 MUI msp file. It will not upgrade 11.0.6 installations.

Adobe flash will not load - gives only a black screen

For all the (3) users on this computer.   For most browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) The browser window goes 100% BLACK when a flash program link is opened and most of the time the cursor / Pointer freezes (occasionally disappears and all keyboard actions are blocked. Have to force quit or kill the box with the power key (which always bothers me.) No Adobe links work directly via the link in mail or in browser. Symptom in Mail is either the original window goes BLACK or a separate window opens in Black.
Current OS X 10.9.3 (13D65), Memory 4GB on 2.4 GHz Intel core i7 in MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011.
Relevant?? Items:
1.     The Adobe company checking device says Flash is not loaded. I have had flash 9, 10, 11, 12, & 13 working before the latest of   OS X upgrades were made.
2.     An aside, I recently (4 months ago) used a MacKeeper app. Today (not used except for information gathering) the "System Scan says my ProtectMac anti-virus is active and no security problems noted. Also noted was "Serious" issue relating to one of 128 issues (474.3 MB of 'junk' files-36.9 MB in 'Logs", 437.4 MB in Caches.) "Performance" listed as 'Fast.' No action is taken and System Scan app closed.
3.     I seem to have lost my copy of Flash 13 in the Applications folder and the install file tries to load "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_14_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg"
This makes sense as to item 1. above.
4.      Another user loaded adobe flash 11 from a download file called, "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_11au_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg." I do not understand the meaning of the part of the file name that reads "_11au_" as it seem to differ from other downloads for "_11eu_". Additionally the copy retained is filed in history and had only the user permissions of one user. Also that copy _11au_ has no mention of Browser Type in the name description of the .dmg file; but the "_11eu_" does mention Safari browser.   Since it was from July 8, 2013 I assume it doesn't matter and it should have been superseded by Flash 12 OSX. Mentioned here only for interest. Also, It may have been saved on this computer in case of rebuild for another user on the home network running 13" MacBook Pro 10.6 Leopard.
5. Attempts to reload Flash 13 from 'AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_13au_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg' as the "Adobe Flash Player Installer" connects to the latest version not yet installed and keeps downloading the Flash 14, which fails and locks up the browser.
6.     The download from get,Adobe.com starts out O.K. After the installer file.dmg completes well, Step 2. is to open it, that, too, works well with an open window of a mounted device on the desktop. The next step is to double-click the icon. That only works so far. A window opens and it has a progress thermometer but it never downloads any product and the link is declared "unavailable" immediately. Refuses to load and will not always give the pointer back or let the browser continue.
7.     While creating this 'Summary' something changed. Using Spotlight I found a different version of Flash Installer on my Mac. I clicked it to go to the Black screen after installer download competes and got a totally different response. I was set to take snapshots of the windows as they progressed. The ".dmg" Icon on the desktop changed from default plain white disk to the red "Flash Player" I had not seen for last 40 days.
Pic 1.     Pic 2.
Pic 1. is the desktop device icon.
Pic 2. is the Installer.
Pic 3. is the Acceptance popup. ~~Note: This popup shows a backwards rev dated March 4, 2012! today is 10 July, 2014.
Flash Player 11.6 is installing after acceptance of License.
Everything went normally and loaded but I cannot test it as all browsers were closed.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Adobe Story Will Not Update

Hello.
I have been trying for the longest time to get back on to Adobe Story to continue working on a screenplay I am writing. But all I ever get when clicking on it is that it insists on updating. After it does that, Adobe Air says it's preparing to start loading then stops and a warning pops up, saying "Sorry, and error has occured. This application cannot be installed because this installer has been misconfigured. Please contact the application author for assistance."
When I click the CLOSE button, the whole thing starts over from the beginning: Adobe Story installs an update, Adobe Air pops up and loads something, then stops and the warning shows up. Then it repeats AGAIN. I once spent several hours on this with no change. What is this?
I noticed in the discussion forums that others are having problems on this. I don't want to delete Adobe Story because I do have a screenplay already in the works and am afraid it will all get deleted. This is not an option for me, that cannot happen. I also do not have the foggiest idea when I downloaded Story in the first place, so I can't be sure if it was before all the new updates or not. Although I thought it was, maybe it wasn't.
I need help on this severly. Please, please, please help me not lose my work. How do I get passed this?

Thank you but, since I did that when I try to sign in it says "ERROR: Sorry, your Story free subscription does not allow access to this application. Please upgrade your subscription." Then my options below are cancel or upgrade now. I don't want to upgrade. And I still don't know if my script is still there or not. A lot of times I've had to work on it offline. Even though I saved it, has it been deleted? Please tell me it hasn't been. I log on to my account on the adobe sight and all my work is gone. Same with the app version.
What do I do now? I've never had this problem before and it's a little frustrating, off putting and scary. (Scary as in I've lost all my work.)
