Can't update Flash Player in I.E. 11

I have Windows 8.1 and I.E. 11.0.9600.17498. I went to the Adobe Flash Player help page, and it says I have 16.0.0 and Windows 8. But I have 8.1.
I went to the Find My Version Page, and got this:
I had the Flash Player update set to notify me when updates available, but I realized I haven't received any notice in ages. I went and changed it to update automatically. The trouble shooting page seems to suggest that if I have the latest Internet Explorer version, I will get the latest Flash Player. I tried to update I.E. there for Windows 8.1, 64 bit machine, but when trying to install, I got this:
I have Mozilla Firefox installed for backup. I checked it. It had the same outdated Flash version, but I was able to update it. I prefer to use I.E., just because I'm so used to it after all these years. Any suggestions?

Flash Player is a built in component of Internet Explorer on Windows 8 and higher.  Everything comes through Windows Update.
Flash Player in Google Chrome is a built-in component of Chrome.  Everything comes through Chrome.
Flash Player for Firefox and other NPAPI browsers is distributed via Adobe and can be downloaded at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer.  The settings that you're modifying in the control panel pertain to this specific Flash Player target.
Because Microsoft has their own distribution requirements (testing, etc) that need to be addressed before they can ship, we may occasionally beat them by a couple days when delivering an out-of-cycle security release.  Typically the difference is pretty negligible, and the synchronization issues are just practical limitations and a desire to get the fix out to as many people as quickly as possible when we discover something bad in the wild.  We get a little bit of a head start on Microsoft because it's our product, but they do a phenomenal job of getting the releases out in a timely manner.

  • How can I update flash player for mini ipad?

    So I try to go on youtube in the safari and it does not let me, it says I have to update my flash player. I press install and it says Safari cannot read. Then I try google and it's the same thing. I don't know what going on!

    Hmmm. We'll my bricked iPhone 4 is unaffected. I'm starting to suspect Dropbox as the problem. It's not on my iPhone 4 but it's installed on my iPad and Macs and I was seeing a page showing Dropbox as a place to update my iPad for Flash a few days ago before I did the latest IOS update.
    I'll see if I can temporarily disable it.

  • Help! I can't update Flash Player or Reader

    After I click yes to the question, "Do you want to allow this program to make changes on your computer" it brings up a blank black box which just sits there forever and never does anything else. When I try to close the box by clicking on the red box with the "X" in it top right -hand side of box) it attempts to direct me to a bad or incorrect link and says "That page cannot be displayed."
    I have tried clicking on "if you encounter any issues downloading Adobe click here." and that didn't work.
    I have tried searching through the Adobe "support" area and all of the errors listed none seem to mention anything about a blank black box. There were a couple of topics that seemed close so I tried following what they recommended and still I have the same problem.
    So my last resort is to try the forums in hopes that someone can help.
    I am also unable to update Adobe Reader for the same reason. BLANK BLACK BOX.
    Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this?

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! Before I saw your reply I had found an updated download for Flash Player, but was still struggling with problems with Reader. Your link totally did the trick and now I am back in the land viewing/saving PDFs!
    Best regards,
    Super happy person!

  • Can't update flash on my Mac

    Hi.
    I can't update flash player on my mac os x 10.4. As a result, I can't watch youtube videos because youtube is using the new flash plugin.
    Any suggestions?

    Does your operating system support Virtual Machines such as VMWare Fusion?  If so, then you could purchase a copy of that and a copy of Windows 7 (You can't install a Mac OSX onto a Virtual Machine, Apple restricts the use of VMWare with OSX, unless Apple makes its own proprietary virtual machine that can boot other versions of Mac OS (older and newer versions, that is)).  With Windows 7 installed in the virtual machine you can then use the latest version of the Flash Plugin (I would assume that to be true but it's only an educated guess).

  • Antivirus exclusions for updating Flash Player

    We are trying to get it so that all of our PC's can automatically update Flash Player (due to all of the recent updates) rather than have me download the redistributable and push it out over Zenworks.
    When we do this, McAfee ePO 8.8i is apparently blocking the Flash Player install. 
    What do we need to list as an exception/exclusion from McAfee so that we can accomplish the updates?  My List would be:
    InstallFlashPlayer.exe
    FlashUtil*_ActiveX.exe
    install_flashplayer*.exe (maybe install_flashplayer*aih.exe?)
    FP_AX_CAB_INSTALLER64.exe
    My concern with using the wildcards is the enormous amount of spyware that might be introduced because of this.  Is there anything else I can do?

    Hi Ulendal,
    Unfortunately, we cannot make a guarantee on specific file names for our installers, or that they will keep the same file names in the future.
    However, great effort is going into improving the current update experience in a future release.
    Thanks,
    Stephen

  • I have tried to update flash player and when I put in my password, it is rejected.  I have recently updated my email address and changed my password, but adobe will not accept.  Can I get help, please, to update flash player?

    I have tried to update flash player and when I put in my password, it is rejected.  I have changed my email and password and have so informed adobe, but I am still unable to install flash player update.  How can I update adobe flash?

    This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
    If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt.  If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
    If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

  • HT5655 I followed all the instructions to update Flash Player, but the installation fails at around 90%, it says that there is an Application running (Safari) bit I actually close all Apps. already. can someone help me with this issue ?? Thanks

    I have followed the instructions to update Flash Player, the Installation Fails at about 90%, it says that there is an Application running (Safari) and it says to close all the apps. and start again ... but I already close all the Applications ... none is running ... can someone help me with this issue ??? Thanks ...

    Dear Dominic
    Brilliant reply. Simple English. Simple to follow instructions. And it worked immediately, first time.
    Why couldn't the Apple and Adobe corporations get their programming right first time? We spend billions of UK pounds and US dollars with them. They reply with incompetent programming such as this, and arrogance to their customers in issuing faulty systems without doing the most rudimentary checks.
    Anyway, I certainly shan't be buying another Apple as this is the most unreliable, most incomprehensible, most illogical and downright thoughtless shoddy piece of computer kit which I have ever owned. And all of it is rubbish ~ emails disappear, photos can't be organised properly, spreadsheets don't work, Pages is laborious… the list goes on and on...
    But thanks to you Dominic, I have been able to load Adoble Flashj… maybe eyou should get  a job at Apple, and set them all on the right course to how to work simply and correctly with customers.
    Thanks again,
    David

  • Update flash player on mac os x 10.5.8

    i have a mac os x 10.5.8 and i am trying to update flash player but every time i try i get a message saying it requires 10.6 or higher. how can i update my flash player??

    Running Leopard you can't. What you have is as far as it will go.
    Leopard was the last build Mac released that was a "Universal Binary". In other words, it would run on PowerPC or Intel Processors. Once Snow Leopard was released, Adobe stopped deveopment on Universal binary builds of Flash Player.
    I know it seems like just another "money grab" by Apple and Adobe trying to force everyone to buy a new Operating System, but the entire industry has moved away from the old Apple architecture and software for it.

  • Update Flash Player (General Plug-in) in Adobe applications

    Hello,

    I've updated Flash Player to version 10.x but these programms
    use their own Plug-in (installed with the programms) and haven't
    been updatet by the update routine of Flash 10.x.
    How can I update the Plug-ins for these programms?

    Hello,
    Secunia PSI detects Adobe Flash Player 9.x (General Plug-ins)
    as unsafe. The Plug-ins are used by the Adobe applications: Bridge,
    Dreamweaver and Air and are installed in directories of these
    programms.
    I've updated Flash Player to version 10.x but these programms
    use their own Plug-in (installed with the programms) and haven't
    been updatet by the update routine of Flash 10.x.
    How can I update the Plug-ins for these programms?

  • How can I get Flash Player and install it?

    I am running Windows XP Home, and using Mozilla Firefox 3.6.8 as my browser.
    When I go to download and install the latest version of Flash Player, the ONLY option I get is to quit. In other words, I cannot download and install Flash Player. This even occurs at Adobe's own website.
    How can I get Flash Player and install it?
    Thank you in advance.
    Sincerely,
    Barry Karas

    First, you can manually download the installer here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Second. On both my Mac (OS 10.6.4) and My PC (Vista Home Premium) I have had nothing but trouble with Firefox 3.6.8 and Flash player, Flash apps and Flash sites that require access to web cam or microphone or both.
    The last time Flash Player worked well with Firefox was 3.6.4, but I uninstalled 3.6.8 and went all the way back to 3.0 on both systems.
    Just a heads up. If you download the manual installer, and it still doesn't work, it ISN'T the Flash Player. It's Firefox. IE, Opera and Safari all work with it.
    Go to oldversion.com and get an older build of Firefox, uninstall 3.6.8, install the older one, go to Tools, and Options and turn off automatic checking for updates, so it doesn't try to take you back the the 3.6.8 "busted @$$ joint" that doesn't work worth poo.
    Maybe when they release 3.7, Firefox will have their act together with Adobe and Flash Player.

  • Update Flash Player via Adobe or whatever Apple updates?

    I have always just let whatever Apple installer that updates Flash Player do my flash updating. Should I, instead, just always update directly from Adobe whatever the "latest" version of FP is? In the past, Apple seems to include a FP update with either a Safari or Security update. I have no idea if they do not update FP on a more frequent schedule because Apple has not "tested" the latest version.
    Also, I have read that it is better to uninstall your current FP before running the current installer, however, the instructions on Adobe's website does not mention that at all.
    Any suggestions?

    Apple does not provide Flash Player updates, and the version included with the OS X install disks may be out of date.
    Update via Adobe when you hear of an update, or just check regularly.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • Update flash player in domain

    Dear friends,
    how can I release the update flash player on the computers in a network domain without the users are administrators of the machines.
    Thank you.

    That's not much help in my case, because it requires you to have a distribution agreement with Adobe.  I don't want to distribute Flash Player, I just want to install it on the machines I administer.
    I can't even run the new version of the installer successfully, because it attempts to download Flash Player and the machine I'm working on doesn't have a direct internet connection.  Earlier versions allowed you to download the full installer, so you didn't need internet connectivity on the machine you were installing to; why has this been changed?  Where is the full installer?
