Can't download Flash Player 10.1.85.3

I'm using Vista 64 with Firefox version 3.6.12. I have Flash Player version 10,0,45,2 installed.
Someone told me there was a new version of Firefox that fixes a new security issue. I checked my version and noticed i had Firefox version 3.6.2 installed. I went to Tools > Check for updates but it said it was paused downloading version 3.6.3. I tried to unpause it but it did nothing and i closed the update attempt.
I downloaded and instelled Firefox version 3.6.12. It told me it was now up to date but that Flash Player needed to be updated and gave me a link. I went to the page which said "Depending on your security settings, you may encounter these steps:". The first image shows Firefox with a bar at the top with an "Allow" button at the right. I had a bar at the top with a button saying "Install missing plugins". I clicked this button and Firefox responds with "No suitable plugins were found." and then has a line that reads "Unknown Plugin (application/getplusplusadobe16291)" with a button next to it saying "Manual Install". I didn't click this button because i have no idea how to find the plugin to manually install it. I clicked the "Finish" button which closed the dialog box.
I then clicked the "click here for troubleshooting information" on the Adobe page that said i "might encounter these steps". I bypassed troubleshooting step 1 because i'm not using Internet Explorer. Step two shows how to find my version info, which i did. Step 3 gives a link to uninstall previous versions of Flash Player, but the link goes to a page that tells how to uninstall Flash Player versions 10.1.x, which is after my current version.
Are there uninstall instructions for 10.0.x versions of Flash Player? I'd like to get it uninstalled so i can continue to try to install the new version.
Or, if someone knows that that's not my issue, please tell me what is and how i might solve it.
Thanks.

I finally was able to install it directly. Try the direct download without the Download Manager:

    To elaborate on what Bernd said, Flash has never been available for iOS. Furthermore, Adobe no longer distributes Flash on any current Android device either.

    You can't.
    Android (Google) dropped all support for Flash last summer. The reason is the same one Apple gave seven years ago when they released iOS: Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it kills batteries... as well as shortening the battery life in mobile devices.
    Android recommends using either "Dolphin" or Puffin" as your browser (BOTH are free in the GooglePlay store). They use "server side rendering" of Flash content to reduce the load on your Android device.

  • Where can I download Flash Player 9 instead of 10?

    Is there a place in Adobe.com where I can download a safe copy?
    Many thanks.

  • I can not download flash player on my Mac

    I have a Mac with OS 10.9.5 and Safari 7.1. Since some time I am not able to upgrade or download flash player on my Mac (latest version 15.0.0.152). from the Adobe download center. Every time I try Safari gets stuck at step 2 of 3 (initialization) and keeps refreshing the page. To start fresh, I tried to uninstall flash player by downloading the uninstall .dmg offered at the flash player help page on the adobe website - even that one I can't download; if I click on it, it only refreshes the page and nothing else happens. So I uninstalled it "by hand", but I am not sure that I removed absolutely everything... Not sure if that matters. Apparently a plugin called SpeedTao is used by the Adobe website. Could there be a problem with that? I can not do anything to enable / disable / reset etc SpeedTao; Internet plugins are allowed and I have allowed adobe to use SpeedTao when it asks me for it.
    I saw that someone else posted a similar question, but it remained unanswered; I could not find an answer...

    Hi leronica,
    The Flash Player download page does not use the SpeedTao Download Manager.  This must've been installed on your system at some other time.  If you suspect SpeedTao is interfering with the Flash Player installation, and don't require SpeedTao on your system, you can remove it using a utility such as AppCleaner, or delete 'all' SpeedTao files (/Applications/SpeedTao.app, ~/Library/Preferences/net.speedtao.mas.SpeedTao.plist, ~/Library/Application Support/SpeedTao).  Removing just SpeedTao.app from /Applications doesn't completely remove it and Safari will still list it in the Plug-ins (I verified this before posting my response).  If you require, or don't want to remove, SpeedTao, you can try using the full installer, posted at the bottom of this page, Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac.

    Hi LeeEnix-
    Why so many downloads? Couldn't get FP to work? IE and
    Firefox (non-IE browsers) have different methods of
    downloading/installing. I'm guessing you're XP or Vista. System
    Restore should've given you back your previous (and hopefully
    working) FP.
    BUT, you need to uninstall before reinstalling, or it kinda
    jams up on ya.
    Flash uninstall Tool:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/t_n14157
    AV progs and IE security can both block the installation.
    Check IE/Tools/Internet Options/Security. Reset your zones to the
    default levels.

  • I can't download flash player on my MacBook!!

    I'm trying to download flash player on my Mac but when following the instructions of 'locate the Adobe Reader Installer file, named like “AdobeReaderInstaller[xxx].dmg”. and double click' nothing happens! An icon is added to my home screen but no matter what I do i can't get it to install like it says it should! Help please!!

    Im not too sure!! This is what the page I'm wanting to use but can't as I haven't got what ever I need says! I have now tried both of those links and the same problems are occurring. I do what I am instructed to do but when double clicking the download folder for it, the screen I know i need to continue appears but then goes before anything loads. Not sure if you are following what i mean so second picture is what help page says to do and i cannot get to step 2.

  • Can't download Flash Player in Firefox

    Hi All!
    I bought a new laptop 2 wks ago, use Firefox as my Browser and am unable to download Flash Player (have managed to in IE).
    I've been in touch with Acer (laptop manufacturers) and they recommend that I perform a system recovery on the machine.
    Surely there is an easier way.........?

    Hi
    Thanks for the speedy reply.  If I want to use YouTube for example, I get the message -
    Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player
    I then go to the link which takes me to Adobe Flash Player download, I Agee and Install Now, choose to Save File,
    but then nothing happens.  Do I need to take Acer's advice?
    Thanks
