Am constantly asked to download Adobe flash player in order to see FB video.....What plug in am I missing.

Need info on how to download Adobe Flash Player successfully.

You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • I am trying to download Adobe Flash Player onto a Vista Oper. system.  What version do I use?

    I am attempting to download Adobe Flash Player onto a Vista Operating system, which version do I use?

    Use the latest 32-bit version (11.2.202.235).
    The 64-bit version is not officially supported on Vista; however, if you have Vista 64-bit, you may try if you succeed installing and running the 64-bit version of Flash Player.  You can download the installer(s) from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#ins tall_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment

  • I just downloaded firefox, and am being asked to download adobe flash player. I already have this app.

    nuff said. Why does firefox not recognize the app? why is it asking me to save download (zip file?) instead of just downloading file when prompted? I'm tempted to just give up and let google chrome keep spying on me. At least that service didn't literally start giving me headaches the minute I downloaded

    There's two versions of Flash. The ActiveX version for IE and the Plugin version for most other browsers. Firefox needs the Plugin version.

    The screen pops up asking to download Adobe Flash Player even though it is already downloaded. After clicking on, do not show this screen again., don't allow, and closing the box.  Moving the mouse the screen comes back, won't go away.

    What is your operating system & version?
    What is your web browser?
    What pop-ups?  Can you post a screenshot?

    Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

  • I am trying to download Adobe Flash player and it is asking me to close Mozilla Firefox, how do I do this?

    I am trying to download Adobe Flash Player and it is asking me to close Mozilla Firefox before it will download. How do I do this?

    Save the Flash installer to the desktop and close Firefox via File > Exit or Firefox > Exit.
    Then run the Flash installer with a double lick on that desktop icon.<br />
    You may need to use "Run as Administrator" via the right-click context menu of that file.

  • My brand new Mac ProBook keeps asking for an admin password to download Adobe Flash Player

    My brand new Mac ProBook (OSX Mavericks 10.9.4) keeps asking for an admin password to download Adobe Flash Player and also when I try to set up adding my printer. The problem is that when I initially set up this new laptop--I opted to not have any password upon login. So what is my admin password that it keeps requesting??--that "I" did not create??

    I have heard that Adobe Flash Player and Apple OS & iOS do NOT care much for each other.
    Now half of Youtube videos would NOT play and many websites would NOT show on my Mac computer.
    This is absolutely rediculous!
    Because of the unfair monopoly, I have switched from Microsoft Windows PC to Apple Mac system a few years ago.
    Is it a MUST and worthy for corporations to compete each other by screwing up customers like this?
    What a shame!
    Big things have small beginnings and so do big failures!
    I think I will delay the idea of buying any more OS or iOS products until I can easily watch all the Youtube videos and browse all the websites!

    It is asking for your computer administrator account password to make system changes.  You "should" have an administrator account password.

  • How do I download adobe flash player on my new imac

    how do I download adobe flash player on my new imac

    This is asking you to store persistent Flash Cookies (meaning, they are not deleted when you delete your ordinary cookies.) Some sites will not work unless you allow them. Here's how to prevent them from getting on your computer in the first place, while keeping Flash and these sites working.
    If you use Firefox, get the Add-on Better Privacy, which will delete them when you quit Firefox.
    Or, trick these sites into thinking they are actually storing this crap: (These directions are for Flash Player 10 and above.)
    Using the following, no LSOs (Flash Cookies) will be stored and yet Flash is tricked into thinking they are. As far as I can tell all sites employing Flash will function properly; nothing will be broken, including Comedy Central with its streaming video content. (In the directions above, I had mistakenly recommended setting the Storage panel in the local Flash Pref Pane to not allow. It must be left as "Allow sites to store...." This was why the Comedy Central clip I had been trying to play wasn't working.)
    First, to get a new, clean folder, start by trashing the Macromedia folder in ~/Library/Preferences. That's in your user Library. Next, do not visit the local Flash Pref Pane in Sys Prefs. Instead, go directly to Adobe Global Privacy settings in the Adobe Settings Manager and set Camera and Mic to "Always deny." Visiting the Settings Manager will automatically create a new, clean Macromedia folder.
    (If you first visit the local Flash Pref Pane, the new Macromedia folder will lack the empty default #shared objects folder and its also empty enclosed folder (this is the one with a combination of characters and numerals.) I haven't tested to see what will happen if those two folders are not present. I assume, providing the Macromedia folder is unlocked, they would be created as soon as one visits a Flash site, but they will not be empty and this would defeat the entire purpose.)
    If you visit the local Flash Pref Pane now, all the defaults will remain, except for the Camera and Mic panel, where "Always deny" will be checked. Next, it seems prudent to go to the Playback panel and check "Block all sites from using peer assisted networking." But, important, in the Storage panel, you must leave the default "Allow sites to save...." checked. This is how sites using Flash are tricked into thinking storage of Flash Cookies is being allowed when they are, in fact, not.
    Next, go back to the Macromedia Folder and, using GetInfo/CMD-I, recursively lock all its enclosed folders. This means starting from the back working ones way up to the front. And, finally, lock the enclosing Macromedia folder itself. Nothing gets stored and everything keeps on working.
    (Thanks to Anon at XYMer's for this.)
    EDIT: Maybe something I don't know, but I don't think AdBlock in Safari will defeat Flash Cookies. There may be some Safari extension that will.
    Maybe this extension

  • When i download adobe flash player a black box pops up and it doesn't work.

    I have downloaded adobe flash player multiple times. I have a windows 7 hp laptop when it gets to the end of the download i click run and a black box appears and the flash player doesn't work. what should i do?

    Hi albinaaa,
    Thank you for confirming the drivers are up to date.  I apologize for the confusion in terminology.  We refer to the installer downloaded from get.adobe.com/flashplayer as the online installer because it is simply an installer shim, less than 2MB that then downloads and installs Flash Player silently.  This requires users to be 'online' for the installation process to work.  What we refer to as the offline installers are the full installers (roughly 15 - 18 MB) that you download and then install Flash Player, which does not require an internet connection as nothing is downloaded silently in the background during installation.
    As I mentioned before, we have received these reports of the online installer displaying without text, however, we have not been able to reproduce, and therefore, the reason I asked you to try the offline installer, since we have not received these reports with the offline installer.

  • HT4479 to download Adobe Flash player my Apple password didn't work

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player if it doesn't recognize my Apple password?

    Assuming you are trying to install it on a Mac and not a mobile device, you should be able to click the download link at get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and it should end up in your downloads folder as a DMG file.  No password should have been required so far. Quit Safari then open that DMG file and run the installer. I believe part of the install process will require the username and password of an administrator account. I assume your account is an administrator account. That's about all there is to it.
    If that's not what's going on for you, can you tell us when and what is asking for your password.

  • I downloaded adobe flash player 11.4 r402, my cpu overheats all the time now.

    I am running winodows vista with firefox 17.0.1 and I downloaded adobe flash player 11.4 r402. Whenever flash is used on a page or I use realplayer my cpu starts to overheat. this player is constantly using too much of my cpu and I have to end process the player.  is there a fix for this or an update?  I have tried to downgrade my flash player but the older versions cannot play youtube and realplayer vids. 

    I just downloaded  version 11.7.700.202  now and tried a Youtube vid and that version is using 44 - 55 % of my cpu for the vid.   I never had this issue before updating to 11.4 and i have been having it ever since.
