Can't get it to work in IE8 or Firefox (XP machine)

I am utterly frustrated with this.  I tried so many ways to do this.
First I tried in IE8, went to options and turned the security to Medium and made everything enabled.   Turned off my Antivirus program and went back to this site and the download failed.  Keep telling me the *.cab is a unknown publisher and failed the digital signiture check.  Who the heck cares about this crap?????  I ran into this so many times in IE8 and wish there is a way I can go back time and install IE7 except I don't have a copy of that.  I HATE IE 8.
Then I uninstall and installed the player manually outside of the system and even disabled the DEP too.  Still not working.  Can't find shockwave in the add-on either.
Then I tried Firefox, got everything to work, then after click the install now option in Adobe's DLM Plug-in screen, while it is trying to install I got this error "Firefox can't not install at http://platformd/adobe.com/NOS/GetPlus/1.6/gp.xpi, Not a valid install pack -207."
HELP!!!!!!
Greatly appreciated if anyone can help me out!!!  No videos to watch!!! 

Don't use the download manager; the offline installers work better
for Internet Explorer: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
for other browsers: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Make sure that no browser windows are open when running the installers.
P.S. you can revert to IE7 by uninstalling IE8.

  • Can't get WEP to work with both mac and windows machines.

    Currently my airport express is setup with no security. When I try to setup using WEP it works great for my powerbook but the windows machines constantly get disconnected.
    Any ideas? Should I use other types of wireless security (WPA etc...)? If so, can an xp machine be configured for that type?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you can use WPA use WPA, it will depend on your PC
    wireless adapter and if you are running Windows XP
    SP2.
    --the window PC is running xp sp 2 but the adapter does not appear to support WPA (dell true mobile 1300 internal adapter)
    from your response below not clear what is the best path to take given WEP is the only option.
    One of the problems with WEP is that the actual
    standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit
    WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
    In order to make things easier for people, vendors
    use certain algorithms to convert simple
    alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX
    keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable
    WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
    The problem is that different vendors use different
    algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a
    ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently
    on a Netgear client and vice versa.
    One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password
    will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if
    you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is
    required).
    Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key
    must be used regardless.

  • Have entrourage and want to use Mail. Can't get it to work.

    I had a macbook and purchased the Microsoft office for Mac which included Entrourage.
    I have now purchased a new macbook Pro and want to begin to use Mail rather than Entrourage. 
    I have Entrourage on my new computer but i can't get it to transfer my information to the the Mail program
    I am on Charter.net at my office and sbcglobal.net at home.
    How can i get this to work.  I can receive on Mail, but i can't send.

    check your outgoing port settings and make sure it's using a specific port and not the default port, also you might want to check to see if it is using SSL, TLS or any other encryption.  Verify the setting from your old machine setup.

  • Got my password wrong twice and my mini is disable. I connected to iTunes, but can't get it to work. Can some one guide my through?

    got my password wrong twice and my mini is disable. I connected to iTunes, but can't get it to work. Can some one guide my through?

    If it's showing the red disabled screen due to incorrect passcodes then you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad via your computer's iTunes and restore/resync your content to it

    Hi,
    Is there an iPhone involved ?
    If not, what happens  if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
    What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
    Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?
    In Messages 7 (Mountain Lion) this did not seem to be important but it seems it is in Mavericks/Messages 8

  • I bought an IR receiver and an Apple Remote, and I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong?

    I bought an IR receiver and an Apple Remote, and I can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong? The receiver is a Lenovo eHome OVU430006/01 USB IR Receiver.

    Hello,
    You would need to pair the Apple Remote with the receiver. So I would use the generic Mac/PC receiver and follow these instructions:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1619
    If that doesn't work then check in System Profiler to see if the IR receiver has been recognized by the PowerBook's hardware. You may require the install of drivers for this device to be recognized.
    Best of luck

  • I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad

    I have a go daddy email account and I can't get it to work on my iPad

    Try turning the email account off and then turn it on again. Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>select your gmail account>Off. Go to the mail app and then come back to the account in the settings and turn it on again.
    If you can't find any other way for the iPad to accept the password, delete the email account and then add it back onto the iPad.

    I have a Mac Mini and I can't get it to work with my Ricoh Aficio MP 161.  Any ideas?

    The latest Apple driver support begins with the MP 171.
    Here is Ricoh's official driver download page specifically for the Afico MP 161. Note that new drivers for this device were released on Aug 2, and include Lion and Mountain Lion.
    Hopefully, this will solve your device issues.

  • My iPhone 5 went black. I tried pushing the on/off button and the circle button at the same time.  It worked once and then it happened again and I can't get it to work.

    Iphone 5 went black.  Tried pushing on/off and circle at the same time.  Worked yesterday and then did it again today.  Can't get it to work.

    You need to hold those button longer until you see the apple logo, then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

    Best if you try and explain what you are trying to acheive.
    Iphoto is a different paradigm than you're used to. I don't understand why you are trying to transfer your edited photos back to an external disk.

    Hi Mike,
    I've checked your account. I see that you just purchased the subscription this morning. The order is still pending processing, which is why you haven't yet been able to log in an use your subscription. It can take 24-48 hours for a subscription to process fully. Once it does, you'll be able to log in and convert files.
    I apologize for the inconvenience.
