Can't install Adobe Flashplayer 11

Tried several times to install Adobe Flash Player 11.  Although I get a message that it is installed, it is not.  I have "unchecked" the box for installing the Google Chrome toolbar.  Must I leave this checked?

What OS are you running?  I had problems on Mac OS just now.  If you are too, it kept prompting me to quite Safari.  It wasn't running. What I ended up doing was quiting the installer.  It will launch Safari again to report your experiance.  Quit Safari (don't merely close the active Safari window leaving the Safari process running).
I went to Activity Montitor (search for it in Spotlight, or it's in your Applications/Utilities folder.  Change the few from Windowed Processes to All Processes and locate or just search in Activity Monitor for processes called WebKitPlugInAgent and/or WebProcess and quit either or both that may be running. The installation completed after that.
If you're stuck with a prompt to quite Dashboard though before Safari, do the same thing as above for Safari, and search for any process named Dashboard and quit it.  It will immediately open a new process of the same name, but that's OK, it will then allow the Adobe installer to move on.
If you're not on Mac OS, look at these KB support articles:

    Hi Pat,
    Thank you so much for your reply.  Yes I am the Administrator. Nothing worked until I went into my security and disabled my firewall and my security tab.  Then Flash Player 12 downloaded without a hitch.  Then I quickly re-enabled both my firewall and security settings.   I have no idea why it worked but it did.
    Thank you so much for your assistance!!
    I wish you a great week!
    Sincerely,
    Lori

  • Can't install Adobe Flashplayer 11. Uninstalled old version. enabled Java. Allowed cookies. Install button grey.

    Can anyone help me with this problem of installing Adobe Flashdrive 11, the latest version ? I'm bashing my head against the wall. Started when iPhoto would not load to Facebook and was advised it could be Flashplayer update after troubleshooting other options including deleting extraneous iPhoto files. I uninstalled older version, enabled Java, allowed cookies, downloaded installer but when I try to download it, the install button is grey and won't work. (This is, coindcidentally the same problem that suddenly began today with iPhoto which always worked fine before....grey button for "publish") It is ALWAYS a problem installing Adobe anything, and usually this same problem. All my software updates are current. Now I have NO Flashplayer and can't use YouTube at all, much less iPhoto.

    Also, sounds like others are having this problem. Read other posts, didn't find an answer. OBVIOUSLY did not solve my problem. No delete ? First time here, sorry.

  • Can't Install Adobe flashplayer on my powerbook G4. Running on Ubuntu.

    I've tried downloaded the Ubuntu version and even the Linux versions and windows versions. It's an apple PowerBook G4, 2006 model. What I keep getting is "Error: Wrong architecture 'i386'" I'm pretty sure it's Ubuntu 8.04. Nothing seems to be working, and I'm getting rather annoyed at this point. Can anyone help? My dad has Macintosh software, so he'd be able to get me running on that, if that'll help.

    Powerbook G4 is a PowerPC chip.  Our Linux players only support Intel 386.

  • Installing Adobe Flashplayer problem

    Hi
    I am trying to install Adobe Flashplayer for use with IE11
    I click on the Install button and the Initialization graphic starts. Then after a few seconds I get a message saying "If you are having problems click here".
    But the actual download stops or stalls.
    Could it be the Norton Firewall stopping it. If so I have search Norton for a way to allow the download and cannot see what might be effecting it.
    I use Windows 7
    IE v11
    Norton 360 Premier.

    Two bugs, one affecting Apple's Mac platform and another attacking Microsoft's Windows, exploit certain Flash player vulnerabilities to install malware onto users' systems, reports ArsTechnica. While users of other operating systems like Linux have yet to report attacks, Adobe's advisory notes the exploit affects all platforms.
    Designated as CVE-2013-0634, the first vulnerability targets the Safari and Firefox Web browsers running on OS X, and is also being used as a trojan to deploy Microsoft Word documents containing malware. For Mac users, the flaw affects Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.146 or earlier.
    On March 1 Apple again blocked Flash Player for Lion and Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5660
    The Adobe Flash patch can be found on Adobe’s website, and users can visit this page to check if their software is the most curent version.
    You should uninstall any previous version first, and repair permissions after installing the new version.

  • Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Hello there,
    Welcome to Adobe Community. Yes it can be installed on a different drive. Though some of the files installed by it will still be installed on C: drive.
    When you run the installer, use 'Change destination folder' at the bottom of the panel
    If you already have Adobe Reader installed on the C: drive, you must uninstall it before installing a new version on a different location.
    Thanks!
