Can't install Adobe Flash Player, can't install Adobe Flash Player, can't install Adobe Flash Player

For some reason I can't install Adobe Flash Player.

This is a community forum focused on MacBook Pro Hardware.  Adobe publishes Flash, and they are the ones who would be best to contact about these issues.  Here's some info from the Adobe website:

  • I have OSX 10.8.5 and cannot install Flash Player 17.  On two computers, I get an "install Adobe Flash Player quit unexpectedly" error.  Many websites no longer work. How can I load the new flash player??

    Can anyone help?

    Hi howardc94036148,
    Can you Please attach a screenshot (How to post a screenshot in the forum ) and explain how you are installing flash player on you system and how did you download the flash player installer?
    In the meanwhile you can you try Uninstalling any remain of Flash Player on your system using - Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS and Re-installing using - Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac - NPAPI for Safari or Firefox and PPAPI for Opera or Opera Dev.
    Let us know if this helps.

  • Trying to instal adobe flash player & firefox says theres missing plugins but when I try to install them it says no suitable plugins found so I can't install AFP

    I've been having problems with my internet timing out when I try to access pages & firefox says I may have an old version of adobe flash player which is unstable so I've been trying to install a new version. Firefox then says theres missing plugins but when I click on the install missing plugins button it says no suitable plugins were found so I don't know how to get it to install AFP
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == everytime I try to install Adobe Flash Player

    Try this simple fix... I just got it to work...
    First visit [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html] download and run the flash player uninstaller.
    After that I simply ran the standalone flash player installer to be found here... [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe]
    This fix doesn't solve the auto-update issue in Firefox, but at least your Flash will hopefully work again in Firefox until a more permanent fix is made available from Mozilla...

  • Adobe Flash Player has been crashing for months. Can you please correct associated problems?

    The following is the message after the successful download from within Microsoft Internet Explorer and Installation of Adobe Flash Player on 8/17/2011 (today): You are now running Adobe Flash Player 10.3.183.5
    And the following version of Adobe Shockwave Flash Player was downloaded and installed as a plug-in for Mozilla Firefox on 8/15/2011: Shockwave Flash 10.3.183.5
    The following link was not working, and in fact access deteriorated since installing the latest Firefox plug-in for Adobe Shockwave Flash Player.
    http://bigcharts.marketwatch.com/interchart/interchart.asp?symb=DJIA&time=20
    For example it stopped supplying daily data for longer Timelines. Then yesterday the panel on the left side of the webpage appeared garbled. I had been continually getting crashes of the Flash Player for months but never got any notice that I was not up to date.

    And the following version of Adobe Flash Player was downloaded and installed as a plug-in for Mozilla Firefox on 8/15/2011: Shockwave Flash 10.3.183.5 This did not result in the end of continuing crashes of the plug-in. I find it strange that months of agreeing to send these crash reports did not result in any notifications of updates to Firefox.
    Confusion has been introduced because of the similar names for the same application. Microsoft Internet Explorer’s notification states that Adobe Flash Player is not up to date and requests download and installation of the same version that had already been installed within Mozilla Firefox, which refers to this application as Shockwave Flash (of the same version). PLEASE SEE IF USERS CAN BE PROVIDED WITH SOME DISCUSSION OF THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN THESE APPLICATIONS.
    What appears currently as fixes on the Firefox website for this application does not fix the problem, but so far it seems that the download from Internet Explorer of Adobe Flash Player (today) fixes the problem of the plug-in. This fix was NOT mentioned within the Mozilla Firefox website. Please note that at this point I do not have enough experience using the “fix” to know if I will not continue to have other problems with this plug-in.
    I'm running Windows XP (latest SP and updates) and cannot use Internet Explorer beyond Version 8, since the later versions are apparently only for later MS OSs. Updating to a later OS with older hardware I do not believe is advisable.

    Hi Anne,
    Your version of Safari is still supported.  Please see Adobe Flash Player | Tech specs for supported OS and browsers.
    If the Flash Player plugin is in the Plug-ins (disabled) folder it's because it's an older version that Apple has disabled in Safari.  This has nothing to do with whether or not Flash Player supports the browser.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "when i click on flash player itself i am told there is no application to open it."  Flash Player.plugin only works in the browser to view Flash content in the browser.  The plugin does not open files outside of the browser.  If you have SWF files you'd like to view outside of the browser, then you'll need the Flash Player projector. However, based on your previous comments this doesn't appear to be what you are trying to do.
    Google Chrome does embed Flash Player in it, while Firefox does not.   Mozilla has also recently started blocking older versions of Flash Player in Firefox similar to what Apple is doing in Safari.
    Following the 'clean install' instructions should result in you having the latest version of Flash Player installed that will not be blocked by the browser.

  • Adobe flash player stopped working 10.5.8.. can not get it to work anymore

    My flash player has not worked for 2 days, i can view some things on Youtube but with no sound so i tried to update my flash player and it doesn't supprt my mac os x version 10.5.8... anyone know what i can do next... Spent over a thousand euro on this under 3 years ago and now it's telling me it's too old! Aghhh help!

    It isn't the MacBook that's too old it's the Operating System. Mac OS 10.5 Leopard became obsolete in July of 2009, that's 4 years ago. Companies like Adobe, Google, Firefox, etc.. no longer support anything less than 10.6.
    First we need to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
      The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion.

  • I can't get Adobe Flash to work on FF 25. Have downloaded and installed AF, but still get error message at Pandora, etc.

    I'm using FF25 on Windows 7. When I go to Pandora and Grooveshark I get error messages telling me I need to install a newer version of Flash (v.10 or later). I've downloaded and installed (I think) Flash repeatedly, but I still get that error message. (Btw, I got the same message with IE, but I installed Flash for that and everything's fine.) I read somewhere that I needed to download the latest version of Real Player in order for Flash to work. I did that but get the same error messages. I am not tech savvy and not sure what to do now.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

    Hi,
    What operating system is your computer running on?
    Please click on this link to verify if Flash Player has beenn successfully installed : About Flash Player
    If it cannot detect Flash Player, use this link to download the full installers : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
    The page which the link directs you to should also show the version of Flash Player installed.
    Please verify if that meets the requirement for the software you are trying to use.
    Also, when you try to use the products you've mentioned, what is the exact error message you see?
    Thanks
