Backward compatibility of Flash Player, Ver. 9.0

One week ago today, I upgraded my Adobe Flash Player to Ver.
9.0.47.0. Today, I used it for the first time in an attempt to view
a slide show with audio commentary on a web site. The first picture
of the slide show displays, but the slide show does not progress
from there and, as a result, I can not hear the audio. I tried to
contact the web site and ask them what version of Flash Player they
had used to create the slide show but, so far, no response from
them..
Does anyone know of any incompatibility issues with Ver. 9.0
and earlier versions? If so, can anyone tell me what I have to do
to downgrade to a version of Flash Player that is earlier than
9.0?

There is a document under development that covers all the
admin stuff for distributing the licensed Flash Player. However,
it's not public yet. That's where these details are going to be,
officially.
Right now, all we really have is " IT administrators Flash
Player FAQ" (
http://www.adobe.com/go/b0dba60b).
The upcoming doc will be much more sophisticated..
For distribution purposes you must license the Flash Player
installer via
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/.

Backward compatability with Flash player

Hey Guys,
I've been creating a site using as3 in flash CS4, however my
client has a large customer base that inludes people in large
companies that dont have the latest flash drivers installed on
their computers and dont have the admistrative privalidges to
update the drivers themselves. After testing with a select few
customers my client has foud that 50% of their clients are not able
to view the site prototype. I have therefore attempted to publish
the site setting the Flash player to 9 rather than 10, however when
I test the site all the animated elements are frozen! If anyone has
an idea how to resolve these issues I'm all ears :D
Thanks in advance,
Dave

If you have used the newer tween techniques it will fail. You
would need to go back and redo them as Classic Tweens.

I have the same problem.
My operating system is Windows 7 and I believe it the operating system is both 32 and 64 bit - mosta likely 64 bit.
I did not have this problem in the previous version of Flash Player.
What did Adobe do to mess it up?

Adobe Flash Player (Vers. 14.0.0.176) not working in Safari or Firefox on Mac (Mavericks; Vers. 10.9.4). What do I do?!

Hi all,
This is my first post to the forum. I've been directed here because I'm having issues with video streaming/playback (in particular, YouTube) on the Safari and Firefox browsers on my Mac. First, a little bit of information:
My computer:
I have a 2012 iMac with a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 32 GB of memory and a 3TB Apple "Fusion" solid state hard drive. The software version my Mac is currently running is 10.9.4, on the Mavericks OS, as shown in the subject box.
My Issue:
I've noticed, in the past week or so, that video streaming and playback, on YouTube in particular, are either (a) slow or (b) not loading whatsoever. In YouTube, three things become apparent almost immediately: (1) the video (advert or no advert) simply does not load, with a black screen that turns into a grainy screen after a while with the message "An Error Occurred;" (2) the suggested videos on the side panel (i.e., to the right) do not load properly. The thumbnails of the videos simply do not load; and finally, (3) the comments also appear to experience issues from loading. I've attached screenshots to document this.
N.B. Comments do appear, along with the side panel thumbnails once YouTube has given up on trying to load the video
So, What have I done about it?
Everything I can do, to be honest. I've:
(1) Checked preferences in Safari (i.e., plugins are installed correctly)
(2) Cleared Cache in Safari
(3) Deleted "All Site Data and Settings" in the Flash Player section of my System Preferences
(4) Uninstalled Adobe Flash Player completely
(5) Reinstalled Adobe Flash Player
(6) Contacted Apple
(7) Checked Preferences in Safari again (i.e., plugins are installed correctly)
(8) Cleared Cache in Safari again
(9) Reset Safari
(10) Deleted "All Site Data and Settings" in the Flash Player section of my System Preferences
(11) Uninstalled Adobe Flash Player
(12) Undertook a "Clean Install" of Adobe Flash Player, following instructions
And alas, I'm in the forum! May I also add, that I have also scanned my hard drive for any corruption that may be present, generating a negative result. I just do not know what to do at this stage. I've done everything I have knowledge of in trying to resolve this issue.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Kieran

Just for further confirmation that the installation went through succesfully multiple times:

Adobe Flash Player ver. 11.6.602.168

1. internet is so slow
2. my itune music "skips"
3. icons on my desktop no longer open with a click(s) - I have to right click and then "open"
4.I cannot 'restore' my settings because the system shuts down prematurely
5. slow slow
6. I do not want the "Google" chrome or tool bar
I want an older version of Adobe Flash Player back on by computer ASAP

Specific Flash Player 10 Backward Compatibility Issue

There's an issue with backward compatibility on Flash Player
10 that is breaking a lot of Flash content that was created with a
tool that I develop and sell. It is to do with the way
globalToLocal and localToGlobal handles NaN.
I've reported it on the bugbase at
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-964
There are more details here -
http://www.questionwriterblog.com/archives/2008/11/scrollbar_causing_content_to_disappear. html
The impact of the bug can be seen here.
http://www.questionwriter.com/samples/fp10problem/v1perceptions.swf
It is a serious enough backward compatibility issue, and
doubtless affects other content too. I'm hoping for the outcome
that the functionality will be restored in future player releases -
but right now, can someone give me confirmation it is on the Flash
Player team radar?

bump!

Flash Player Update disables "restore all windows from last session" in Safari on Mac

I am on Mac OS 10.9.5, using safari 7.1.2. Adobe Flash Player Update loses all safari windows when after update the installer automatically opens safari and just opens flash player website; the "restore all windows from last session" is grayed out in history. The "reopen last closed window" is also grayed out. It has been happening ever since and happened again when I just installed Flash Player ver 16.0.0.257.
For all other normal working situation I can close safari and reopen and see that I can "restore all windows from last session" and there is no problem. But on flash Player install (set on manual install), the problem is annoying and costs me a lot of time to restore one by one from history. I do not think this is a Mac or a Safari issue, but will update to Mac Yosemite help if Adobe Flash Player is updated differently in that setup?
Please help.

Update: I called adobe flash player technical support phone number 1 877-587-1877. They want $59 (warranty only 6 months) to fix this problem as they use a third party to solve this issue; they themselves provide no support. Or buy the paid version. They insist it is my network issue which I absolutely can not believe.
It is adobe Flash player update that forces reopening of safari and wracks the safari losing all windows from last session. That is not my network. Adobe does not have a proper safari compatible flash player update.
Besides, this is a known problem at Adobe and they are not fixing it and want money to fix it one person at a time! They also shared that 25% to 30% of the installations have this problem... wow!! and they still will not fix it in a general update! I wonder if safari has a plug in update that can fix this?

Flash Player will not resize gaming window, or show screen at all.

I have been having issues with this for years, ever since I installed Internet Explorer 8 when it came out a few years ago. (Keep in mind that I have a 2nd computer, and a lap top, all with the newest software as well, and neither of those have this issue). I always have the latest software with Flash Player with this computer that I use the most, but it doesn't seem to make a world of difference. Half of the flash games I play on the internet won't fit inside of the browser window. As a crude quick image example of what I mean, see below. (If you would like me to insert an actually print screen of this occurring in my browser window, let me know). Imagine the ENTIRE grid is the flash player browser, which any working system is supposed to see. My flash image gets cut off in the equal sign areas, which makes game play almost completely impossible some times. Therefore, all I am ever able to see is the plus section (Which is actually larger than normal in flash windows since it can't resize). Not very helpful at all. This is the typical problem I have run into and endured for a steady 3 to 4 years. And it won't just happen with some newly created games, but with some older games as well (which older games are more understandable). But I don't have this problem with EVERY flash window I come upon, only about half that I've ever encountered.

My newest issue involves a gaming site I frequently visit. Crazy4jigsaws.com. They recently reformatted their site, and all I get is a blank white screen when I actually get to the interactive puzzle window, but I'm able to see the picture icons and tool bars just fine. (I already had the newest updated Flash Player when I first encountered the site). When I open the site on the laptop, it now shows the same symptoms of not being able to resize and fit the flash into the window.
I have looked for answers everywhere. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash Player multiple times. Fiddled with Java (just in case). Attempted compatibility views in my browser. Checked the internet options to make sure my activex is enabled or prompted, as well as anything else that may have prevented it. I've checked the bit rate of my Internet Browser (128). I've tried to install that "32 bit" link for the browser, but all I get is an error message. I've clicked on every single option in the View tab at the head of the browser. I'm always clicking the refresh button.
Does anyone have the same issues as me? I'd like to at least know that I'm not alone.

I have Windows XP.
In regards to my blank white page, the flash is now working again (Whether I needed to restart again or if it was a site thing).
And I'm not sure how to go about changing my display resolution with the browser, or know where to find it for that matter. Of course there's the one you can find in the control panel/display for the whole computer in general, but that doesn't do anything except make everything larger (Since I originally had it on the highest: 1024 x 768 pixels) and doesn't change the resize compatability for flash player at all.
Above is a screen shot of the jigsaw site I use (which is not the worst game resizing issue I've run into.) On the left side of the flash window, there are options to choose during game play, and the last option gets cut in half b/c the window won't resize correctly. And I haven't any idea if there are more options below it or not.
Below is one of the worst resizing issues I HAVE run into. I don't play farmville anymore since this problem, among it being boring, makes it literally impossible to play the game. I brought up the marketplace option since it's the most drastic. This is all of the flash game window, which would resize anything normally on my other computers, but the images get cut off along the sides with this one. I have tried playing this game on its home site, hoping that facebook was the problem, but it's the same issue there as well.

Flash Player 16 Installer opens but won't run on 64 bit Wdws 7 and IE 11

I have Flash Player ActiveX Ver. 15.0.0.246 installed on my Dell Inspiron N7010 (Intel Core i3 processor) laptop, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OS with Service Pack 1, 6 GB of RAM, and using Internet Explorer Ver. 11.0, 32-bit browser. Flash Player notified me that it was time to update to Flash Player Ver 16.0, and took me to the website to download the installer. I first disabled my anti-virus (ESET NOD32 Ver 8.0.) and malware (Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Ver 2.0.4) software, and then clicked the 'Install' button on the website. After I gave my security software permission to let it run, it opened the blank black installer window (labeled "Adobe Flash Player Installer"). Nothing happened after that. No indications that anything was happening appeared in either the Adobe website window or the installer window. (The Adobe website window had advanced to "Step 2 of 3.") I gave it 10 or 15 minutes, then clicked the red "X" button in the upper right corner of the window to close it, but the installer window would not close. I had to use the Windows Task Manager to shut it down. I tried rebooting and re-attempting several times, but never was able to get the installer to run.
The installer ran fine on my other computer, which has the same configuration / version nos. of OS, IE, AV, A-Malware, and Flash Player, and I was able to successfully upgrade it to FP 16.0.
I have noticed that several others on this forum are having this problem, but with other combinations of OS and browsers, and I did not find a definitive solution for this problem that appeared to be applicable to my combination of software (defined above). If anyone with this combination of software has solved this problem, would you please be kind enough to provide a step-by-step description of the solution, on this forum, in layman's terms, and provide screen shots where little-known Windows, IE, or Flash Player steps / processes / menu choices are involved.
Thanks,

You write that you "downloaded", but did you also install it?
What version does it tell you is installed at http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html#main_Find_the_Flash_ Player_version_installed_on_your_machine ?

Adobe Flash Player Installed. Doesn't appear to be recognized by IE9. Incorrect Browser Showing?

Good evening all,
This Flash Player issue is giving me fits, so I'm hoping one of you might have experienced this before. Websites visited on this tablet do not recognize Adobe Flash Player. I have installed Adobe Flash Player ver 11.5.502.135 for Internet Explorer. When I go to the following link, http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html I get the following information:
"Flash player is running on your system." The lil' ball is running back and forth.
Flash player version: 11.5.502.135
OS: Windows 7 (32-bit)
Browser: Opera
Well, I'm using Internet Explorer 9. What gives? I've attempted to uninstall and reinstall of Flash player. No luck. ActiveX Filtering is off. Shockwave Flash Object add-on is Enabled. I've ran some updated antivirus and found a bunch of signatures, but I removed right away. (Malwarebytes, Spybot S&D)
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I’m about ready to nuke the hard drive and start over.
Thank you in advance.

Good Afternoon Sunil,
Thank you for the reply. Sorry if I wasn't clear on my earlier post. That is correct, the page was incorrectly detecting the browser as Opera. I was using IE9. It was very strange.
I corrected it performing a Windows System restore from the previous month.
Take care.

Flash player not working for facebook game "resort world"

Windows 7, 64bit
Flash Player ver. WIN 10,1,85,3
I'm having trouble with the specific game on facebook called "resort world", everytime i try to access it, the page just keeps refreshing itself non-stop.
I ran the uninstaller, restarted my computer and installed a fresh copy of the flash player again and I still have the same problem. I've also checked http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and the flash works fine. Also to mention, other games on facebook do work, I have tried this game on internet explorer 32bit as well as 64bit, google chrome and mozilla firefox and they all do the same thing. I have friends with 32bit windows 7 and 64bit windows 7 and the game works just fine. Anyone can help me find a solution to this problem? Thanks

I was playing YouTube videos for an hour last night then YT says JavaScript/Flash Player Error. So I installed the new version w/o uninstalling the old one & I'm still getting the same error (in Firefox 3). Then I went to Control Panel in Win XP Pro and uninstalled 2 items of Adobe Flash so there were none left. Rebooted. Reinstalled the new version of Flash Player & I get no improvement. I've griped at YT Help, now I'm griping here. I can see YT videos embedded in MySpace Forums. I can watch the 2 videos in my YT Video Log at full screen even but the HQ/Normal button is missing for some reason). But if I try to play any other YT video, I get the JavaScript/Flash Player error message and no video box. I can hardly navigate around my YT channel at all now. I can't do much of anything but log in, log out and look at two video log videos.
