Can't upgrade to Flash Player 10

My neighbors computer is running Windows XP (Home) SP3, on
this computer they're using IE. I've been trying to install the
latest flash player and it keeps failing while trying to load
"C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\*.ocx" (I forgot the file name,
I'm assuming there's only one, if necessary I'll re-try so it fails
and I'll get the name). I have attempted everything on the list
http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19166
. I've ran the uninstaller, tried the .msi, ran the fixing
permission script, renamed the Flash folder in macromed (so the
installer would have to create one). I've even restored my computer
back to September 10, 2008 (the farthest back I can go). If I left
out any details, I'll try my best to provide answers.
Suggestions?

Hi, you know that first response that was me the user got
messed up my user name is MACapprentice. What i meant do you have
any thing thats inportant to you. also when your waching a
animation right click hold it down and you might see player 10.
sorry if i dont make this clear. And it actually it was on my
computer!

I can't upgrade my flash player.

Uh-Oh...You need to update Flash!!
We have detected that your computer needs an updated version of Adobe Flash Player to properly view this video.
The minimum required version of Flash for this video is 11.8.0. Your current version is 11.7.700.

How To Upgrade To Current Version of Flash
I am trying to watch Comcast online. I keep getting this message every time I try to play a video. I have downloaded the new version over and over. It will not work. I have contacted Comcast,and they have advised me that this is an Adobe issue. Please advise how to resolve this. I use Google Chrome in Windows 7.
Thank you,
Jennifer

Jennifer,
Chrome has its own proprietary Flash Plugin (called "PepperFlash"). It can't be updated here, because Google alters the code for it when the embed it. You can try this:
1. Exit chrome, make sure it is not running
2. Using Windows explorer go to C:\users\[user name]\AppData\local\Google\Chrome\User data\Pepperflash
3. Delete the folders you see there
4. Start chrome again, it should work now.
Notes:
[user name] is your logon name.
In order to access the AppData folder, you need to "Show Hidden Files and Folders" in your Folder Options.
If that doesn't fix it. you'll need to uninstall Chrome and download a new version.

HOW CAN I UPGRADE THE FLASH PLAYER IN MY IBAD ?

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
Puffin
SkyFire
Photon Flash
Browse2Go
iSwifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

Using my current ID and password I can sign in to Adobe. When I try to download the upgrade to Flash Player they ask for ID and password. When I put in my current one it is rejected. What causes this and how do I correct it?

Using my current ID and password I can sign in to Adobe. When I try to download the upgrade to Flash Player they ask for my ID and Password. When I insert my current ID and password it is rejected. How do I correct this problem? Is it an incorrect sign in from an old ID, and/or an old password associated with Flash Player?

The password prompt is supplied by the operating system, and is intended to protect you from accidentally installing software. You will get this prompt for any installation outside the App Store context.
If you do not need to enter a username or password when starting your computer, you can probably just leave the password field blank when acknowledging this prompt.

I looked in the manage add-ons and it says enabled.
I also went into the safety tab and deselected

Restarted and still does not work.

Chrome uses a different and separate plug-in.
There are things about IE you need to know, especially 11. Specifically:
"User-Agent Strings"
That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Can you find adobe flash player 11.5.502.55?

I have a power pc and 10.5.8 i find a discussion about a flash player on 11.5.502.55, but i couldn't find it. Now the 10.102.64 now the flash player not working it goes 50% but never finish installation. So i'm going to a older version on google to download the flash player 90280. otherwise can you find it 11.5.502.55, all i find out was youtube and i needed a latest flash player.

At some point I'd posted some method for patching a Flash player so it would appear as 11.5.502... and thought to try & find it among previous discussions; and for some reason I could only go back 500 discussions. So I did not find that post.
Given the Flash player is essentially obsolete for the outdated OS X version(s) the patch is a way to allow some sites and some content to load in a browser that otherwise may not. However because it is not improved regularly, there is content that probably won't work even if you use the patch and run a later version.
The instructions are in a read-me richtext file in the patch folder; the Plugin update is included and you swap out the older plugin with a newer 11.5.xx included in the download file. It seems to do OK and my older Macs can use it. (Even my early Intel-based MacBook with Leopard 10.5.8 has a patch, since it hasn't a current Flash either.) See their 'read first' file to see what you need to do to get the patch to work. Save the old part in another folder so you could revert it. And test the Flash player version after the patch update. This does not use a regular installer; you re-use part of the existing Flash player

You can use the Adobe Flash Player help site to test a version, get another (vintage) version in their older version section archive; or test a version in any Mac that can go online to see what (if any) is running in it.

Given the moving-target nature of the internet web page content, browser and OS
technology update or change, and obsoletism of various products, you cannot
expect these items to last; you will have to upgrade the system at some point, and
because the hardware limits you in PowerPC (and other) a newer computer device
is another prospect if you require an online presence and need Flash player plugins.

TenFourFox no longer sees Flash player. http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
FireFox is no longer supported past an old versions in PowerPC Mac 10.4/10.5.
Some video content uses HTML5 so you can check to see if any browsers you use
can be adapted to more readily try to use that when available and not rely on Flash.

Can I still install Flash Player 8

I upgraded to Flash Player 9 a few days ago but it doesn't
work! Maybe because my Windows XP is not updated. (I can't get

Flash 8. Is it available for download? Or is there something else
that I should be doing to get Flash 9 to work?
Thanks

Browser out of date and can't install Adobe Flash Player

My browser is out of date according to everything I am visiting. I can't post pictures on twitter, some of the videos I watch have blocked plug-ins, and I can't install adobe flash player. My computer is a MacBook Pro 10.6.4, and I would like to keep Safari. Can someone direct me to where I get the newest version of Safari and why I cannot install Adobe Flash Player. I have installed, uninstalled, and done everything I know to do to get this problem resolved. Next step is take it to the Apple store as I am not a tech person. Thanks for any assistance.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. Upgrade further:
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
