Can't run Flash10 using  internet explorer 9.

I am running Windows 7 home premium 64 bit OS. My problems started when I updated to Flash 10. I am running Internet explorer 9 32 bit.  The flash 10 download states that Flash was installed successfully, but when I go to any site having flash content, I get the message "newer version of Flash needed".
I won't burden you with everything I tried, they are all in the flash threads.  Alas, I am now using Google Chrome because
Flash 10 works with it.
If someone comes up with a solution that works in all instances, please send me a note.  Adobe, shame on you for not taking a more active role in resolving this SERIOUS problem.

Hi vettech2,
Try logging into Windows as administrator, then uninstall Flash Player, then reboot, log in as administrator again, reinstall Flash Player. To see if IE sees it, open IE, then Tools, then Manage Add-ons, and make sure Shockwave Flash Object is enabled.
My install of Flash Player plays flash on some sites, but not others, but when I run IE as an administrator it plays flash on the sites that it doesn't when using my normal account.
Maybe my issue is due to the way that the sites play flash rather then the player itself.
Hope that this helps with your issue.

  • I've discovered that I can't download files in yahoo only, Gmail works ok and I can download from yahoo using Internet Explorer.

    I've tried all the suggested solutions in: What to do if you can't download or save files.
    I can't download from Yahoo, but can from Gmail. I've tested using copies of the same file on both. Someone suggested checking malware, but I've run a scan and don't have a problem, and as I say, i can use Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Someone asked for a screen shot, who knows why.

  • Can you get and use internet explorer for mac?

    I am wondering If I can obtain and use internet explorer?

    No
    Safari or Firefox  are the optimal choices. At times Safari does not open links with smooth pagination of fonts and lettering / graphics are not clear. So I opt for Firefox. Be aware that you need to close Safari to use Firefox. It has been my experience.that if I forget to close Safari and open Firefox at same time Firefox error message says oops! We need to reset or can't open try again.

  • Yahoo e-mail will not allow me to add contacts and will not auto fill e-mail addresses, and now I'm having trouble downloading Adobe documents from my bank. All of these problems can be solved by using Internet Explorer, but I prefer Firefox.

    I get an error message when trying to add new contacts and it is suggested I try back later, also when sending an e-mail the address I wish to send an e-mail to will no longer auto-fill. This has been a problem for sometime, maybe a month. The last problem I had was trying to download my March bank statement, in Adobe. If I switch to Internet Explorer I can accomplish these tasks. I am using Yahoo on both Firefox and Internet Explorer.

    Check the Ethernet connection to the AirPort Express. Make sure that the Ethernet connection from the Comcast modem is connected to the WAN port on the back of the AirPort Express. The WAN port is the one with the circle of dots shown over the port.
    It sounds like you are connected to the Ethernet LAN port.

  • I cannot click on tabs in any website, do you know why? I can do it when using Internet Explorer but not firefox.

    I have used Mozilla Firefox for years, but all of a sudden I cannot put my curser over a tabs on any website and click on it. What I mean is the top of the websites have words you can click on to go to other pages or in the email system it has tab buttons that allow you look at your inbox or close or save draft, it doesn't allow the curser to click on it. I can go to the tool bar put my curser in that and use the tab button on the key board to tab over to each word or link and then click enter and it will then go to that next page.

    Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

    Maybe you should test these things before calling people out, because these settings do function perfectly well.
    iCloud is not supported on Snow Leopard or lower, why bother to mention it?
    The OP has an iCloud account, and that can not be opened without Lion or Mountain Lion (on a Mac), IOS5 or 6 (on an iPhone/iPad)
    The document I linked to is Apples documentation for iCloud on current devices,I don't care whether you believe that you know better than they do, but it will affect the people who follow your advice as it won't work

    Tried to see if it is looking for flash and it is disabled or not installed by default; java (not being installed and best to turn it off normally), browser agent to report it as something else.
    Opera comes the closest I've read to spoofing a site telling it is IE but you have to do so per site. Also OmniWeb.

  • After a recent comcast / xfinity update I have been unable to even connect to the internet using firefox. I can using internet explorer.

    After a recent comcast / xfinity update I have been unable to even connect to the internet using firefox. I can using internet explorer.

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    Restart the router. Many problems are solved that way.
    Step 2
    Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
    Step 3
    Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
    Step 4
    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
    Step 5
    You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
    Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    Potential sources of interference
    Step 6
    Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    Step 7
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

  • I'm using internet explorer(yuk!!) and am having trouble with getting back my search engine "google" and all i get is "blank page", can u help?

    First of all, forgive me cuz I'm probably NOT the sharpest "chip in a laptop" but I use Internet Explorer as my ISP(I've heard that GOOGLE CHROME is soo much better??) and Google as my search engine. For some reason(I know, probably USER idiot!!) even though I have set in my "internet connections" tab, www.google.com chosen, the minute I click a new tab to look for something else, that dreaded "about blank" or maybe "blank page" comes up.....wtheck???? Can u help me pleeez......thank u ..

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Why Can't I create a new folder in yahoo email? (I can if I use Internet Explorer)

    I still use yahoo email a lot. I am also a big fan of firefox. But today I noticed a problem. I wanted to move an email to a new folder but I can't get yahoo to give me a prompt so that I can put in a folder name. Also I wanted to print an email an email and I can't get the print box to come up. Usually all I have to do is click on actions and then print message. Firefox usually brings up it's popup blocker, and then I tell it it is ok to allow popups from yahoo. But right now it won't give me that. I tried turning off my popup blocker, and that didn't seem to help either. I also noticed that whenever I click on things in my email stuff seems kinda slow. It says "loading" for while and then does or doesn't do what I want it to do. At first I thought maybe the problem is flash player. I did a flash player re install, but that didn't help. I decided to bring out Internet Explorer just in case that I could get my email to work with that browser. I was surprised to discover that everything worked perfectly in Internet Explorer. Then I decided maybe Firefox should be reinstalled. I uninstalled Firefox and then downloaded a new copy of it. Then I rebooted, and installed the new copy. The browser is noticeably faster and smoother then the old install but I am still having trouble with it and my yahoo email.

    I just did a test in google chrome. I can not create a folder under google chrome, but I can create a folder under Internet Explorer.

    as stated, I am unable to view some videos in Firefox, but I am able to view them when I use Internet Explorer. How can I view all videos when using Firefox. Thank you.

    That is Flash.
    You do have the Flash player installed according to your More system details list, so Flash should be working.
    *Shockwave Flash 10.3 r183

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
