Can't install Flash Player upgrade

Can't install Flash Player upgrade on Windows 7 system. Get it downloaded and get message "an exception Runtime error has occured in script". Message says "new instance of MS Script Editor". Try to debug and get message "can not create application folder"
What do I do?

Hello,
I've seen another report of the installer throwing a script error, however, I've been unable to reproduce. Can you please do the following to provide a log file for further troubleshooting:
Download the installer from get.adobe.com/flashplayer and save it to the desktop
Launch the command prompt, click the Start orb and in the search field, type: cmd.exe
When the command prompt utility launches, drag the installer from the desktop onto the command prompt window hit space key and type /debug
It should look similar to (the actual file name may differ): C:\Users\labuser\Desktop\install_flashplayer14x32_mssd_aaa_aih.exe /debug
Note there IS a space between the file name and the / and there is NO space between / and debug
If there are spaces in the directory path, the command needs to be encapsulated in quotes, for example: "C:\Documents and Settings\labuser\Desktop\install_flashplayer14x32_mssd_aaa_aih.exe" /debug
Click Enter to proceed
A file named host.develop.log will be saved to the same location the installer was saved toYou may notice the the online installer file is missing. This is because it deletes itself once executed, so it will no longer be saved locally.
Post the contents of the host.develop.log file here in your response, or share the file following the How to share a document instructions.
Thank you in advance.

I can't install flash player upgrade

I am not the most computer literate person and have tried about 10 times now to install the latest flash player upgrade. It is driving me crazy! I need to go to a website to get a gift certificate for a birthday for tomorrow but I can't access it! What can I do? I can't get the Gizmo guys here before lunchtime tomorrow so any hints that are in the realm of the computer non- geek would be great. Many thanks

What is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?

Can't install flash player on Mac OSX version 10.4.11

Hello
I've spent the morning trying to do this and still no joy. I had flash player already and when trying to use the 4oD website it asked me to download or upgrade flashplayer. I did, the correct version according to my mac version. All goes well and the window message says 'installed successfully'.The only thing I find strange is that just before this message appears I hear the sound of items being put in the 'trash' ... and there they are. Other times the message error -1409 appears. The only icon that appears is the Flash player installer.pkg so not sure whether the application was installed or just the installer! All web searches prompt me to download the missing plug in, both in safari and mozilla. Java script is definitely enabled on both browsers.
I have use the uninstall package three times, restarted the computer, downloaded flash player again but no change.
Forgive my limited use of jargon - this doesn't make any sense to me but I've just spent 3 hours following instructions to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Flash Player is no longer supported on Android, however, you can install it manually on your own, or use a different browser in your Android device.
Some helpful links:
"Why can't I install Flash Player on my Tablet?" (Kindle or Samsung Galaxy) - for tablets, but contains general helpful information

How can i install flash player for window 8.1(64 bit) on my laptop

how can i install flash player for window 8.1(64 bit) on my laptop?

For Internet Explorer, you don't. Microsoft has already done it.
For Firefox, Opera or Safari, use the Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
For Chrome, you don't need to wither because Google puts it in the browser.

I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8

I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8, it supposedly downloads but then I can't find it, when I search for flash player in downloads in the finder, I get three choices:
1. Adobe flash player install manager: when I click on this, the options are either to quit or uninstall.
2. Flash Player: when I click on this, it shows me Flash Player in the finder, when I click on that, it leads me to install it again.
3. Install Adobe Flash Player: just taked me back to install it again.
But it never seems to install or open.
Any help would be great, thanks!!

Can't install Flash player on mac os 10.8.4

I can't install Flash player on mac os 10.8.4 (Safari). The adobe help tells me I've installed version 11.8.800.94 - but the player is nowhere to be found...

Download the offline installer here: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
If it won't download directly, right click and "Save as"
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
Trash the Flash Player.plugin file from there
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Trash the Flash Player folder (the whole folder)
Empty the trash
Reboot
Mount the DMG and run the installer.
BEFORE opening any Flash content in Safari, open Safari>Preferences, and check the Security tab to make sure "Allow all other plugins" is checked.

Can't install Flash Player 12 on Apple Macbook Pro w/ 2.6 GHz Intel i5 proc. Adobe needs to fix it

Can't install Flash Player 12 via Safari on my Apple Macbook Pro 13" w/ 2.6 GHz Intel i5 processor. Error message says "User does not have sufficient privileges." I've worked w/ Apple Tech Support, tried various fixes, no change-it's not a setting on the Macbook. I've emailed Adobe requesting a fix. Any suggestions?

Adobe can't fix user permissions on your MacBook... and "User does not have sufficient privileges" comes from your OS, on your MacBook, NOT the installer.
Have you tried a "Clean Install"? (offline - NOT using Safari) How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
or a COCOA install:
Right click the installer and choose "Show Package Contents"
Go to: Contents/Resources and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file

I can't install Flash Player on Mac, because of Dashboard Client

I can't install Flash Player on my Macbook Pro OS X Mountain Lion, because of error it keep showing me, that my Dashboard Client is running and i need to close it.

Unfortunately, going through all the widgets, closing them, quitting the dashboard, installing Adobe whatever, then reinstalling all the widgets is a complete PITA.
There is a widget called Dashquit 3.0 which is supposed to turn dashboard off. When I tried it with 10.9.3, It quit dashboard, but dashboard started back up immediately, preventing the Adobe install. I then looked at other answers which recommended turning the dashboard process off using Activity Monitor. Same results - using either Quit or Force Quit, dashboard stopped for a millisecond then restarted.
The thing that finally worked for me after all of this was to restart the computer. I shut down Safari before restarting so that it would not appear immediately on restart. As soon as I was able to after the restart, I opened the Adobe .dmg file and started the install process. It finally installed without any further intervention.
Adobe, it sure would be nice if your installer-writers were to ignore the Dashboard Client since it doesn't use Flash as far as I know, and it would be even more convenient if the installer shut down Safari or Chrome or Firefox or other browsers automatically with permission from the user. It sure would make things a lot easier. Other installers do this routinely, so why can't you?

I can't install flash player on MAC

I can't install flash player on MAC
give me error after program download on MAC as me to put my user ID and password
I try to put but always give me error

@douglasbell2
The dialog window requesting the password is an OS dialog window, it is not a Flash Player window. I understand the confusion, but we can't modify a system dialog window with additional information.
@jongenelen
If you're system does not have a password, you should be able to continue the installation with out it. Ignore the password field and click the OK button. If your system does have a password and you don't recall what it is, I recommend Googling something like "reset lost os x password". This search returns many results, and some vary depending on the OS version.

Can't install Flash Player (stupid ActiveX!)

I can't install Flash Player or Macromedia Player on my
computer. The problem came out of nowhere. We seem to have no
viruses. We go to the adobe site to install it, but after we click
the install button, a little message shows up, asking to install
it, and then something about ACTIVEX. I'll go more into detail if
you think you know what the problem is. Help as soon as possible.
Thank you! Lacey

I couldn't resist being the first to reply to your post...
and let me warn you now: You may get a bunch of nasty comments from
others that forgot what it was like to learn the ins-and-outs of
computers....
What you described happening in your post is 100% NORMAL.
After you click that INSTALL button, your Internet Browser (I'm
assuming Internet Explorer) SHOULD ALWAYS confirm that you trust
the person/site/company that is about to install software on your
computer... that "little message" you saw is your confirmation that
you REALLY want this installed.... if so, you will click that
"little message" and then click "Install ActiveX control"
(sometimes this same thing will occur on various websites but
instead you will see a "little message" about an ADD-ON...
generally speaking, its the same thing).
Basically, ActiveX & Add-on's are programs that work with
other programs already installed on your computer; in this case
Adobe Flash Player working with your internet browser.
The whole reason behind the that "little message" is to
prevent websites from installing programs on your computer without
you knowing it.... you don't always have to click an "Install"
button for a website to attempt to send you a program! Makesure
when you see that message you know exactly what your installing and
WHY. There are alot of sites out there that will try to install
ActiveX/Add-on's that jepordize your entire computer (viruses,
spyware, keyloggers, etc.).
So go ahead... click install and then click install
ActiveX... this site can be trusted to install. :)

I can't install Flash Player in Mac

Hi¡¡ I Tried around 30 times and i tried every solutions that appear in web (uninstall previous version, etc)

When I load the install program, it stop when the bar is in 0%, then I have to force exit because the program doesn't response…..
Help me, please¡¡¡

Hello,
We apologize for the installation issues you are encountering. Unfortunately, we have not been able to reproduce these installation issues using the online installer. The offline installer Pat provided a link should work fine. If you'd like to help us troubleshoot the installation issues with the online installer, and are comfortable working in the Terminal app we'd appreciate it if you could provide us with the install log file for the online installer. If so, please do the following:
Download the installer from get.adobe.com/flashplayer and save it to the desktop
Mount the DMG (double-click the file) and copy the .app file to a local folder (e.g. desktop)
Open LaunchPad and in the top search window type Terminal, click the app icon to open the Terminal application
In Terminal, change directories to where the .app is saved to (step 2), type: cd <location to file in step 2>
e.g. If the extracted .app file is on the desktop, type: cd /Users/labuser/Desktop
At the prompt, type: ./Install\Adobe\ Flash\ Player.app/Contents/MacOS/Install\Adobe\ Flash\ Player -debug - file
Go back to back to the location where the .app is saved to (step 2)
Right-click on the app and select Show Package Contents
In the window that displays, navigate to Contents/MacOS
Obtain the host.develop.log file.
Post the contents of the host.develop.log file here in your response, or share the file following the How to share a document instructions.
Thank you in advance.
