Aobe flash player won't work

Like so many 100s of other people I regretably upgraded my Firefox to the latest and have had endless problems since. The latest problem is that when trying to watch a video, on youtube for instance, I am told that I don't have the latest Adobe Flash Player - which I do and I know that for a fact because I then launch the same video in Internet Explorer with NO problems. What is going on with this update and why are you not sorting out the problems. Like so many other people have said - why did you have to mess with it, there was nothing wrong !!!! I am on the verge of going back to Internet Explorer

Perhaps before you do anything else, you should download the free version of Malwarebytes from http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free and run a full system scan to eliminate malware as the culprit as is often the case.
If you want to revert to the previous secure version of Firefox, do the following.
Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.17] and download it to the desktop. 
Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box). 
Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 
Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
After you complete the installation, go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update those where necessary.

Seem to have tried everything. i.e. chrome, firebird, archived flash players, etc. All not supported. Any insight??? It started when I tried to upgrade current flash player and it said I needed to uninstall current version, which I did, and then it wouldn't download the current one giving me the not supported story! Please help!!!!!!

Hi Andy, that is correct, they don't support PPC Macs anymore.
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/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!
Or smaller here...

I'm sorry. I was hoping it would work for you. I have to delete it about
once a day and reinstall it. It is really getting on my nerves. You are
talking about deleting and reinstalling right? Sorry I'm not in the forum
I'm just replying from my e-mail.

IE 11--Flash Player won't work

I have just installed Internet explorer 11, and my flash player won't work. I have uninstalled and re-installed it, and unchecked Active-X, and enabled shockwave. Any suggestions please?????

I could not get this problem solved. Uninstalled IE 11, and reinstalled IE9, and things are working fine.

Flash player won't work after a successful download

About my Mac:
OS X version 10.8.4
1.3 GHz
Safari: version 6.0.5
I have installed and unistalled flash player several times, and even restarted my computer. I followed all the steps to do so correctly, but the Flash Player won't work at all. Youtube and other websites give me error messages when I try to watch a video. They say "missing plug-in".
I really can't seem to find the problem.
(For what this info is worth: I just got my computer a couple days ago)

How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
Give that a shot.

Now that I have installed OSX Lion, my flash player won't work.

After I installed OSX Lion a few days ago my flash player suddenly stopped working. It won't let me update (it says I have the newest version) and when say, I try to watch a YouTube video a little box comes up over the player with settings and the "allow" button but no matter if I use the trackpad or the keyboard I can't select anything.
It's getting really annoying because I can't play games, watch videos or video share online anymore and I have no idea how to fix it.
Is it just something that will be stuck until Adobe releases a version that isn't beta for OSX 10.7?

This allows me to watch videos which is great but still when I try to play any flash games or enable a webcam on something other than iChat, Skype or Photobooth the dialog box comes up and even using tab and space bar like Adobe suggests doesn't seem to work. :-/
Glad to be able to watch videos again though

Flash player won't work and new one won't install

My adobe flash player is not working, when I tried to download the latest flash player it would not install which means I cannot download a file i need from the transfer email program which requires the flash player. I have gone to the web site and went through the suggested routine of making sure things are enabled. Still no Luck. Need help!

What is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?
What exactly means "not working"?
What exactly means "cannot"?

Flash Player won't work following malware removal - help!

I removed some malware using malwarebytes, which I thought was the end of my problem, but in fact it has opened up a bigger one, in that Flash Player has stopped working. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing - now have version 10.2.153.1 - but no success. Kids didn't mind when they couldn't access their online homework; not so happy now they can't play their games either. I've looked at other discussions for a solution, but nothing quite fits this problem. Any help gratefully accepted.
I can follow instructions but I'm not techie, so any replies need to be idiot-friendly, thanks.

Have just spotted your post about the "kill-bit" http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049 - sounds remakably like my problem so will check it out when I get home this evening. Just one question though - is there any point in first trying to do a system restore to a point prior to the malware removal, or would I be wasting my time?

Adobe Flash Player Won't work!

I am trying to use Adobe Flash Player on my account on me and my brother's computer. We have Windows 7. My brother's account's Flash Player works fine on his, but my account, no matter what I do, won't let player work. I thought it had something to do with our antivirus program, Kaspersky PURE 3.0, but turning it off or temporarily disabling it doesn't seem to help at all. Please help me ASAP, thanks!

Sorry I didn't explain that. "Won't Work" means that when I try to play a game on the internet that uses Flash Player, it won't start (usually just has a black window where the game should start up).

Adobe Flash Player won't work with Firefox

Flash Player won't work on Powebook G4 version 10.5.8

Hi,
Am about to sell on my Powerbook G4 however i'm unable to use iPlayer/Youtube. I've gone on the FlashPalyer site and downloaded the PowerPC version but it doesn't work. Can someone advise what the correct version I need is ? The version I tried was : "Flash Player 10.1.102.64".
Hope someone can assist..

Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
There is this Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862 - this gets FP to tell web sites you are running a newer version than you really are. The hack gets around web sites that don't really need a new version but think they know best. If they really do require it then this hack doesn't work. It isn't clear to me since you are selling this G4 why you are suddenly concerned about being able to play YouTube etc. Even if you get the hack to work, a G4 is rapidly ageing and a person buying it won't be able to do these advanced web things for long anyway. I also don't know if I would want to buy a computer where people had been installing hacks. I guess it is buyer beware but still...

Current versions of Flash Player won't work on my Windows 7 machine

When I install a late version of Flash Player it won't play videos. Here's what I get on YouTube https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6246962/0002.png . I then have to go back to a previous version. When running the previous version Firefox nags me constantly about needing to update. This has been going on for a year or so. I run Firefox on Windows 7. The latest version that works is 11.1.102.55
Of course the question is how do I make a current version of Flash Player work?

I'm sorry you're running into this. This looks like a YouTube specific error, so you might be able to find out additional info on their forums. Here's a few things I'd try to start:
1. Update to our latest version, released today: 11.5
2. Update your video drivers (feel free to post your system's dxdiag report if you run into problems with this) - Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
3. Try disabling hardware acceleration in Flash Player - How do I disable or enable hardware acceleration?
4. Pause the video and try changing the resolutions to see if that makes a difference
5. Clear you browser cache (or at least the Flash Player cache and settings, note that this will reset hardware acceleration back to the default - How do I clear my Flash Player cache and settings? )
6. Try clicking the popout or fullscreen buttons in the YouTube player. Does that help?

My Flash Player won't work ?

Any ideas why my flash player on a 64bit machine with Windows 8 won't work. It opens up, freezes, then says 'not responding'. I really need it. :-(

Hi Rebecca,
Sorry you're encountering problems. What browser are you using?
Thanks,
Chris

Flash Player Won't Work - Help?!?!

Mac OSX - 10.1
Safari Version - 8.0
I am having some trouble downloading Flash Player to work with Safari and my friend is also having the same issue.
I have done pretty much every procedure: uninstalled, deleted plugins but still no luck.
It reaches 30% installation and then just says 'it's lost connection' but then won't do anything after that.
SOMEONE HELP ME!!!

I tried doing that but it tells me that:
"Safari can't open http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_osx.dm g'
as it is unable to connect to 'download.macromedia.com'
Which is pretty annoying.

Flash player won't work IE - Windows 7

@@Since I installed a new graphic card, Flash player keeps giving troubles (in both IE and Firefox).
First the problem was this:
- I had to reïnstall Flash each time I rebooted my computer.
Then I tried to fix this using a program provided by Adobe (SubinAcl), which should have resolved this problem. However, the problem got worse instead. Now the problem is this:
- Flash won't work at all.
I did almost every action found on the internet for this problem:
Reïnstalling Flash, seems to work perfectly
- Flash player is enabled via 'manage add-ons'
- DirectX filtering is disabled at all times
- The last programm installed according to my control panel even is Flash Player 15
- As said, I installed a programm provided by Adobe, but this even made the problem worse
But, if I do the Flash check of Adobe, it sais there is no Flash player
So everything seems to say, there is Flash player installed, however, I still can't view Flash content. Very, very annoying. Please help me with this.
Greetings, Gerjan
