Adobe Flasher Won't Install

I've have tried everything I can think of to try to install
adobe flasher. I had it on this computer for a long time and now it
just won't install properly. Everytime i try to install it, it says
that I need to install the Active X. I then try to install Active
X, but I always get a note that tells me that the instalation
failed. I can't view certain pictures and video. I can't seem to
properly download the correct Active X control or there maybe
another problem. Thanks for any information.

The number one reason that the ActiveX installer fails to
install on IE are due to incorrect permissions in the system
registry. We have solved hundreds of these Windows system
permissions with Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.
Note: This is strictly for Windows IE, these issues do not
occur on other browsers such as Firefox.
www.firefox.com
To fix these Windows system registry permission conflicts you
can use Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.
Warning: The following solution involves the Windows System
Registry. Editing or manipulating the registry incorrectly can
result in serious system damage which may require re-installation
of the operating system. If you are not comfortable editing the
registry, then take your system to a professional. If you choose to
proceed, then it is essential that you create a complete system
backup and a Windows System Restore Point before proceeding.
Please download Microsoft’s tool to your desktop.
http://www.supportflash.com/reset_min.zip
1. Login as the User that has the incorrect permissions in
the system registy
2. unzip the “reset_minimal.cmd” and the
“subinacl.exe” to the desktop
*** Make sure both files are on the desktop
3. Close out all applications
4. Run the “reset.cmd” file
5. It will open a DOS like terminal and start running through
registry keys
6. When it is finished it will say “press any key to
continue”
7. At this point you can download the latest Flash Player
from here:

Adobe Flash won't install into Firefox.

I've tried to install Adobe Flash Player numerous times. I go to their web site and download the installer. I then run it as an administrator and it says that it installed fine. However, when I get into Firefox V30.0 and go to Add-Ins Manager, it's not listed. I've tried uninstalling the add-in from "Add and Remove Programs" from Control Panel and install it again. I've tried uninstalling Firefox and downloading a new copy and then installing Adobe Flash Player again. I've re-booted my computer numerous times. Nothing works.

Did you use this link?
The link for Flash Player is: '''http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/'''

Adobe Flash won't install on Mavericks?

About three days ago, Adobe Flash disappeared from my OsX (Mavericks) system. I have tried to reinstall it without success. I contacted Apple Support, paid them their $19 one-incident support fee, and they were NOT able to solve the problem either. I even disabled my anti virus sw (Norton) on a temporary basis. Still no joy. Any ideas w/b appreciated.

If Flash Player does install, it puts two items into /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and adds a prefPane to System Preferences. Check those.If no go, contact Apple's Support, formerly Apple Express Lane, and let them deal with it, since it's a new machine.

Adobe Flash won't install on Mac

So once I've downloaded and begun the installation process for Adobe Flash, the installer asks to close certain running programs. However, while i am downloading adobe flash it is asking me to close com.apple.Webkit.Plugin.64. I have no other applications open, and when i alt+tab the only two things running are finder and the adobe installer. So, my question is, what it com.apple.Webkit.Plugin.64.
Thanks
Here is a screenshot of the installer.

I had the same error/issue and this how I quickly fixed it:
Step 1: Visit this site to download a previous version Archived Flash Player versions
Step 2: Download version -> (Released 9/9/2014) Flash Player 15.0.0.152 (Win Firefox and Mac) (132 MB) (though I believe any recent MAC version should do, this just worked for me)
Step 3: Install the Flash player from Step 2.
Step 4: Download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (that wouldn't initially work)
Step 5: Problem should be solved. You're just reverting your update and re-installing it to fix it.

Adobe Flash won't install on my mac

When I try to install flash on safari it starts installing and then I think it intalls but then when I go back to a site that needs flash, it says I still need to install it... What is wrong?? PLEASE HELP!!!!

From the Safari menu bar, select Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Security and check the box labeled Enable plug-ins.

I just loaded Yosemite on my Mac and now adobe flash won't work in Safari 8.0.4 . Does anyone have a solution ?

I just loaded Yosemite on my Mac and now adobe flash won't work in Safari 8.0.4 . Does anyone have a solution ?

If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
For a "blocked plug-in" error, see Step 4.
For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
          Delete All Site Data and Settings
then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
          When visiting other websites
From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
          Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
          Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
          Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
          Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
          Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

Adobe Flash won't play while in Safari. It will in Firefox. How did I get Flash to play in Safari?

Quit and relaunch Safari.
If you have ClickToFlash installed, that can prevent Flash content from loading.
Either as an extension: Safari > Preferences > Extensions
Or HD > Users > Library > Internet Plug-Ins

Adobe AIR won't install - Windows 7 Ultimate x64

"Sorry, an error has occurred.
An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator."
Well, I asked myself and verified that I am allowed to install any programs I wish to at will.
I even toyed with adding extra permissions for the .exe and shortcut [see below], to no avail.
I also checked your Adobe AIR installation troubleshooter section before posting. Unfortunately, none of the solutions 100% applied to my circumstances or OS, yet I tried a few anyway and had it confirmed by a Windows dialogue that I need not have bothered as it assured me that they weren't applicable in my case.
I found another thread like mine where somebody suggested creating a shortcut with an additional -uninstall parameter added to the .exe path. It didn't work.
I used Microsoft's Installation Cleanup Utility and that didn't work to "un-confuse" the installer either.
Do you have any more suggestions?
Adobe AIR came with the HTC Sync program for my phone, which appears to have dependencies on it where it won't completely work without it.
Thanks in advance for any input.
ps. I created a new thread because I couldn't find the "reply" button on a similarly unresolved thread regarding Adobe AIR installation issues on Windows 7.

I would like to say thanks to artrose54 and to playswithtech for their thoughtful responses to my problem. I finally figured out which number I was to delete, and then, having made a copy of the number in notepad, deleted it. Upon a restart to my computer I then was able to download adobe air 2.7. I found that I still could not download the shutterfly express uploader, however; so I applied the same approach. I went looking for the number in the registry that corresponded to the uploader. I deleted it; restarted the computer; returned to shutterfly; and then was able to download the express uploader. I am sure I will find other uses for Adobe Air in the future.

Subject: Re: Adobe AIR won't install - Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Hi everyone,
Here is the fix that worked for me,
You need to go to start run and type in regedit
now press ctrl+f for find and type in "adobe air" without the quotes then click find next
the first entry it finds is the one I deleted, it is a long number on left side of screen that is greyed just right click and delete it
I then rebooted the computer and ran adobe air installation
and it worked with out a problem
The adobe air log file really doesn't tell u anything but where it tried to find the setup.msi file
but it doesn't exist because of the registry entry that needs to be deleted which is what causes the error
If u r not sure of editing the registry then maybe you know someone that can help you
I hope this helps you out it worked for me

Thanks in advance. I would really love to work with this Flash player.

Hi, I'm not sure what you are trying to Install. Adobe Flash Player, the browser plugin? Or the CS5? If the former, then you are on the correct Forum. If the latter, you may want to start a thread on one of the other Forums from here and use the "Select Forum" drop down arrow.
http://forums.adobe.com/index.jspa
However, it appears that your system is a 32bit and this WARNING #5 on your list shows that what you are trying to Install is for a 64bit OS. You may need to make sure you are using the correct version.
See if that is what the problem is.
Thanks,

Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install.

Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install? This happens only in Safari. I have tried changing my security preferences but it doesn't help.

missyzz,
which version of OS X is installed on your Mac, and which version of Adobe Reader do you have installed? Did you ensure that all of your browsers were not running when you’d installed Adobe Reader?
To use Preview to open PDFs, download the PDFs to your Mac, and then use Preview to open the PDFs locally. Since you can open PDFs in Firefox, it sounds like you don’t need the Preview workaround.

[SOLVED] Both stable and unstable chromium-pepper-flash won't install

Hi all,
I just installed Chromium, but am unable to install Flash. It was recommended that I install pepper-flash rather than flashplugin, since the latter is deprecated. But there is a problem:
chromium-pepper-flash-stable won't install because the link to the package is invalid:
ERROR: Failure while downloading google-chrome-stable-31.0.1650.57-1.x86_64.rpm
chromium-pepper-flash won't install because the md5 checksum is invalid:
==> Validating source files with md5sums...
google-chrome-unstable_current_amd64.deb ... FAILED
LICENSE.txt ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!
This leaves me with three questions:
Does this happen often, or is it a freak coincidence that both recommended Flash packages are broken on the first day I start using Arch?
I can probably find the proper package file for chromium-pepper-flash-stable, but what is recommended practice for installing it (if I am in a hurry, or just impatient)? Should I hack the PKGBUILD file myself?
Should I flag these packages as out-of-date in AUR?
Thanks!
Last edited by mhelvens (2013-12-04 22:51:39)

Yes, edit the PKGBUILD yourself. Both the link and the checksum.
Have a look at the comments: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chro … mments=all Being broken is not an uncommon occurrence for this package.

Adobe Programs won't install....

Hi,
i have a nasty problem... all of my adobe programs won't install... (the .dmg's)
When i wan't to install after effects for example, mac says:
"System Requirements Error
This software cannot be installed because the file
system of the OS volume is not supported."
(this is translated from dutch, it maybe isn't exactly the same, as it would say in the english version of leopard..)
i already tried to use the disk help program, but it won't work...
what should i do???

Ah, okay. I was wondering if it was that, or a downloaded copy from a college server. Lot's of colleges do that these days for student priced versions.
Anyway, the problem seems to be that you have formatted the hard drive as case sensitive. If you did do that, you'll have to erase the drive with Disk Utility and reinstall everything from scratch. I don't think you can change it without erasing the drive.
