After downloading adobe flash it doesn't show up on my computer!

I keep downloading flash and it says it has been downloaded succesfully but when I go to find it on my computer it doesn't show up anywhere. I'm trying to watch videos and cant because it says I need to download flash but for some reason it isn't working. My computer runs on windows 7.

I have to say i'm super frustrated with this as well. I flushed the computer clean so once reloading a bunch of stuff back on the computer adobe flash player was one of the things I had to put back on. The reader went on fine saved to my desktop ok. The flash player is far from as simple to get on there as you'd think. At least not smoothly. I use windows 7 (Interet explorer 9)  and avast. It "says" it installs sucessfully yet the only place I can find it when it was SUPPOSED to be saved to the desktop is in the uninstall programs list. I think its installed on my computer now after checking a bunch of forums and trying different things (diasabling this and that)  to try to figure out whats going on.  It shows up on this page http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html  .... Anyways I spent wayyyyyyyyyy too much time on something that should and use to be so simple. Clearly im not the only one having this problem. I think something needs to be done for people to be able to download this with less hassle and headaches.  avast+IE9+Windows 7+trying to download adobe flash =

    The other day, there was someone here who figured after quite a while that he had plug-ins disabled in Safari. He could have installed Flash a hundred times but never get it to work.
    Of course, you do have plug-ins enabled. Yes? Quick double-check? Safari -> Preferences -> Security tab -> checkmark at "Enable plug-ins"...

    If the HTML5 video works, please try disabling hardware acceleration and try again.  If you continue to run into problems, please post back with your OS and browser versions.

  • Missing plug-ins after downloading adobe flash player 11.2.202.235

    Hello again:
    I sent a request the other day for help regarding my downloading Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235 and losing the ability to play my games( they were bookmarked from the web) because of missing plug- ins.  I mentioned that I know very little about this computer.  I did get a reply saying that he needed more information about my computer which I sent and I have not heard anything back.  I probably did not send the message correctly therefore I am sending the info again and I hope I don't screw it up this time. My computer is as follows:
    iMac4,1 Version 10.6.8
    Intel core duo
    2GHz
    # of processors 1
    Total # of Cores 2
    L2 Cache 2MB
    Memory 1.5GB
    Bus Speed 667 MHZ DDR2SDRAM
    BootRom Version 1M41.0055.B08
    SMC Version(system) 1.1F5
    I hope you can help me in the simplest way possible so I can understand your instructions.
    Thanks again,
    Margaret

    It's confusing when a single poster starts two threads on the same topic and it divides the replies or has duplicate replies for those that are unware of the other thread.  You should post the above in the thread you originally started after my post which asked for some clearification on the problem.

    You may need to uninstall all previous versions of Adobe Flash Player, first, then reinstall the latest version to your Mac

    duplicate of [/questions/909951]

    Hello.  I have almost the same problem it seems.
    I have reinstalled Adobe Flash Player (latest), used the Uninstaller from the website. It installs correctly.
    Even tho it doesnt seem right when i check my programs installed.
    Because before i had 2 Adobe Flash Player (i use CCleaner for this), I got the Adobe Flash Player Plugin 64-bit
    and another at name Adobe Flash Player 11 something. And before i did the same thing as i did now.
    But it should probably be only the Plugin one.
    Anyways. When i try to watch Youtube videos, it won't use Flash Player at all. And Firefox says
    i have Flash Player, and its up to date and everything.  But Youtube wont use it. Some do odd enough.
    Vimeo use it tho.
    And now i came across this thread, and i tried that Profile thing you told. And it does work with a new profile.
    With the same Youtube video (copy link from old Profile). So i guess it's the profile that's broken.
    Example of videos:
    Doesnt work:       http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3PMCD7aMRI&hd=1
    Works just fine:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ46Ot4_lLo&feature=related&hd=1
    But how could i fix this then?  Cause i realy don't want to do a new profile and lose all the settings etc i have at the moment.
    Would be realy awesome if you could provide a fix for me
    I might have been unclear on some things, not that good at english at some points.
    So just ask if you need more info and ill try to provide it for you.

  • ADOBE FLASH PLAYER DOES NOT show up on add-ons and even though i install it on my computer it doesn't sync with Firefox to play movies

    Vudu requires Adobe Flash Player for movies and gives me an error message saying that I need to update to the newest version and gives a link. When i follow the link and install the newest version I still get the same message. I checked add-ons Firefox and Adobe Flash Player doesn't show up as an available add-on or plug-in. What is the problem?

    Your system details list doesn't show that the Shockwave Flash plugin is installed and enabled.
    If you have the Shockwave Flash plugin installed then make sure that it is enabled.
    *Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins
    You can check the version of the current Flash player here:

  • HT5655 I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player several times still have the problem

    I am still having problems after downloading Adobe Flash Several Time     They keep asking me to download

    Who's "they?" Where have you been getting Flash from? Only get it from these two:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
    Dumb question maybe, but downloading is not the same as installing. Have you installed it after downloading? You need to double-click the dmg.
