Always show my Adobe Flash need upgrade but it was the latest

I visit Youtube website though Firefox however the website always shows that my Adobe Flash need an upgrade. But, my Adobe Flash was already the latest one. I try to visit the website with another browser and Youtube didn't show my Adobe Flash need upgrade anymore. What happened?

There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and 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; look in Add-ons > Plugins for "Shockwave Player ''(version)''".'''
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#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/
#Direct link ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''': http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe

  • Mozilla is not recognizing Adobe Flash even if I am in the latest version11.7. Other browsers recognize

    I have installed the latest version of adobe flash player available in Adobe site. But the firefox doesnt recognize any flash file and displays"Please install the latest flash player". I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but with no help.
    Other browsers work perfectly fine and all the flash files are displayed.
    My folder C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash contains only 3 files
    activex.vch
    Flash32_11_7_700_202.ocx
    FlashInstall.log
    Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

    I asked a question about this a couple of days ago and someone gave an answer which I cannot seem to find today... They said (for windows 7 64bit processor) "Go to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash and open up mms subdirectory. Open up notepad and add the line ProtectedMode=0 to the mms and save it on your desktop as mms.cfg. Then rename the current mms.cfg to mms.cfgBAK and save it to your desktop for backup if there is a real fix and then copy the saved cfg file to replace the previous one...." This worked for me! I hope it continues to work===Good Luck!

  • Cannot download new adobe flash player upgrade

    I just tried to download the newest Adobe Flash Player Upgrade by going to the Adobe website. The Adobe Flash Player Installer appeared in my downloads file. But when I double click it I get a Mac warning window opens that says "Can't be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store." When I go to the Mac App store and search for Adobe Flash Player, it doesn't exist there. How do I get it or is there another way to be able to watch video on the internet especially from sites like you tube and vimeo, but also sometimes on other sites. Do I have to keep the older version indefinitly and risk not getting security updates?

        System Preferences > Security & Privacy
        Unlock the lock, if you have to.
        Allow apps downloaded from:
        Select “Mac App store and identified developers”.
        Quit System Preferences and try.

  • Adobe Flash-says installed, but isn't???

    1. I downloaded and installed Adobe Flash, got message that it was successful, I now had Adobe Flash, BUT nothing needing flash works, so I checked all programs & Adobe Flash is NOT listed; so I checked Control Room>Uninstall-and Adobe Flash is listed but shows 0 memory under size.
    2 So I uninstalled it, and returned to website, repeated download and install of Adobe Flash. Same thing.
    3.Rebooted and repeated 1 & 2, same results.
    4. When I installed, all 3 times, got error message that I needed to close internet explorer, which I did but still got error message. Kept clicking Retry, finally got past that, install looked like it went well, %'s went to 100%, said complete, I clicked finish.
    5. Have Dell Inspiron 1720, Vista OS [hate hate hate Vista!], IE, Mcafee Total Protection. Am self taught baby boomer pc user [work online 8 hours/day] so please understand I don't understand tech abbreviations.
    Thank you so much for any help you can give.

    What files do you have in

  • Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • Why does Chrome insist Adobe Flash Player is out of date, but I have the latest version?

    I run Mac OSx 10.5.8. I am trying to use Chrome, but the Flash is not working on either Safari or Chrome. Chrome insists Adobe Flash is out of date
    , but I have the latest version available to my OS.
    I have tried uninstalling, disabling plugins, reinstalling and enabling.
    I have tried updating via Adobe website over 10 times.
    I have tried switches which just run the outdated plugins...
    I have tried renaming the system plugin in the Library and pasting in Chrome package contents
    I don't have two flash plugins in the chrome:plugins
         This is the error message in the chrome:plugins
    Flash - Version: 10.3.183.23 Download Critical Security Update
    The link goes to the Adobe website to install version 10.3.183.23, which I already have.
    Please help?

    Yes, it is indeed! Sorry I missed you're on OS X 10.5.8.
    I reinstalled Chrome...
    Can you confirm it is version 21.0.1180.79? It's important you confirm you're at the latest version of Google Chrome too.
    ... and I have the same issue of the Flash player not automatically updating.
    I would repeat myself... "available updates for Adobe Flash Player are automatically included in Chrome system updates".
    Chrome automatically updates when new versions of Flash Player are available. The integrated Google Chrome Flash plug-in cannot be uninstalled using the Flash Player uninstaller. You can only enable or disable the integrated plug-in.
    Therefore, as it's showing you're at the latest version 10.3.183.23, it would appear it is an issue 'internal' to Chrome's system updates; reason why I had referred you to their support, or alternativelly, post to their forums.
    However, you can try Adobe's Help page (for Mac) here >
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.html
    And alternativelly (Flash Player with Google Chrome) here >

    Regret couldn't do better for you but please confirm by return how it goes.
    Good Luck!

  • Adobe Flash Player 10 when installed closes the whole computer as soon as it is selected to 'play' a video clip from U Tube or any other source, I have uninstalled it and the problem goes away but I cannot play the clip.any answers?

    Adobe Flash Player 10, when installed, closes the whole computer when it is used to play any clip from U Tube or other source. I uninstalled it and there was no further trouble but, of course, I cannot view the clip. If I reinstall it the same problem persists. I have contacted my 'computer guru' but his comment is that many of his clients have the same problem but it appears to be a problem with Adobe however many other friends have put in the version 10 Flash Player and have no problems. I do not appear to have any other problems with the computer such as viruses etc and it is scanned very day for such items. I would appreciate any advice you can give as it is very annoying, thanks, RAB

    Me too!
    On both IE8 and Firefox. Win 7 32 bit on IBM T42 - 1GB ram.
    Old laptop I know but the 10.1.x.x Flash Players worked just fine. Problem started with 10.2.152.26 flash player.
    Now BBC TV live and iPlayer work just fine, however YouTube does not - audio but no video. Just a black rectangle where the video should be.
    Right click to get the menu and "settings" is greyed out. However select the pop-out option and the video plays. Right click on the pop-out and "settings" is available. So deselect "enable hardware acceleration", close the pop-out and refresh the window (F5) and now YouTube videos play. Switch hardware acceleration back on and now they don't.
    This video works fine with hardware acceleration enabled. http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/features/video/h264/
    These also work. http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/stagevideo.html
    Something broken in 10.2, I think.

  • My ipad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but not which ones.

    My iPad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but doesn't show which 2.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

    There is no such thing as a "pay once, use forever CC". It's strictly a subscription model that you can use as long as you pay for it. Your CS5 will give you a discount for the first year.
