Cannot Install Flash CS3

I installed a trial version of Flash CS3. About two month
later I had to re-install windows. Now when I go to install my
acctual copy of Flash I cannot. In the install window, flash is
greyed with the message (Already Installed). What do I do?

Not much you can do. Except manually clear system files and
any registry entry made
by flash. The program has TRIAL period which counts from the
day 1 of your installation.
Even if you install and don't use it, the counter is running.
Removal and re install won't do much as there are registry
entry made to prevent people
from reinstalling and running the trial endlessly w/o
purchase.
You must do total clean up, or buy the license.
If you bought license and still face the problem, contact
adobe support, they will sort
you out.

  • Cannot install Flash CS3 on Win7 computer

    I can't install Flash Pro CS3 on a new HP Win7 computer. The computer is:
    HP - Pavilion Elite Desktop

    I was able to install CS3 on my Toshiba laptop, which uses a different AMD chip.
    Any thoughts?

  • Cannot install flash version 10.1.0 onto a mac 10.4.11

    Hello,
    I cannot install flash version 10.1.0 onto a mac 10.4.11 and therefore cannot use YouTube or the BBCIplayer. Is there a compatability problem?

    I am in the same boat. I cannot watch flash videos on the BBC website or on BBC iPlayer, although all other flash videos (YouTube for example) are fine.
    For reasons that passeth all understanding, they work with the PPC version of Firefox, called TenFourFoxG5.app, once you have anabled plug-ins, as it does not natively support Flash.
    You can download TenFourFoxG5 from here:
    http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
    Now for the intersting bit: TenFourFox, like Firefox, does not support most plug-ins. Unless you are prone to headaches (in which case don't) you can read about that here:
    http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/PluginsNoLongerSupported
    But there is a workaround!
    Open TenFourFox and type in the address bar: about:config (no spaces) and click return. This gives you a warning that it might harm the application. Ignore that and click on 'I'll be careful, I promise' and you get the config file that you can edit - with great care.
    Look/search (scroll down) for: tenfourfox.plugins.enabled
    Set it to true. (Double click it to toggle it)
    Now close TenFourFox, open it again, and Flash will now work, as it now uses the plug-ins that Safari has stored.
    I am using Flash 10.1.102.64 in TenFourFox and it works just fine.

  • Cannot install ps CS3

    base problem: Cannot install Photoshop CS3, it keeps asking for Illustrator CS4 disc.
    Story:
    I purchased photoshop cs3 a while back. Upgraded to a better computer and purchased Illustrator CS4. I installed illustrator CS4 BEFORE installing Photoshop CS3 on the new machine.  When I went to install PS CS3, it asked for the IllCS4 disc. I put it in, and nothing. Round and round. asking for the PS CS3 disc, then the Ill CS4 disc etc...
    Read the forums, found a thread about uninstalling Ill CS4 then trying PS CS3.  I did that. I used the WinCS4CleanUpDatabaseUtility, and used the Windows install clean up utility as well.
    However, after all this, when i try to install PS CS3, it continues to ask me for the Ill CS4 disc.
    Can anyone please assist.
    thank you

    Please check, if you really deleted all Adobe apps (including Adobe Reader etc.) and the caps.db is deleted. it can be found in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\caps. It records any installs/uninstalls, so if it#s still there, it would still have info on previous CS4 stuff which may interfere with getting CS3 on the system.

  • I cannot install flash player on my MAC - (osx 10.8.4) - it downloads 50%, then clicks to "finish"

    I cannot install flash player on my Mac - running OSX 10.8.4 and Safari 6.0.5.  The progress bar show is as  downloading to 50%, then converts to "installing" and immediately goes to 100% and says it's installed. But it's not.  I get another Adobe Flash installer icon on my desktop instead.  Help!

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    First, remove Adobe Flash Player completely using Flash Player uninstaller for MAC : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
    Download offline installer for Adobe Flash Player (MAC) from here : http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
    Once the file is downloaded, run the installer

    I cannot install flash player without google? why?

    Download the Adobe Flash Player FULL offline installer directly by clicking one of the following links.

    Nothing in those but the Flash Player plugin.

  • Cannot Activate Flash CS3/Unable to load trial

    I recently got Flash CS3, and would like to use it. When I
    try to activate, it cannot access the internet. I've let my
    firewall allow it to do so. I've also tried using the 30 day trial,
    but it's unable to load it. I've tried rebooting and reinstalling
    the files. I'm not sure what to do... Can anyone give me any
    advice?

    Cassie,
    You do realize that the file you downloaded is an image file (i.e. .img) which cannot be installed by simply clicking on the file. That's the only way the files are set up now. If you are running Windows 8.1 you should have a translator that will take care
    of that for you. If not, you will need a converter. Here is a website that offers a few different approaches.

    Hello All, I want to first say I appreciate your help.

    Here is the link to what I used.

  • Cannot install Flash Player in Windows 8.1

    Tried to install Flash Player in Windows 8.1 (32 bit).  Used all the instructions; i.e, disable saftey, enable scripting, etc. An install box says Update KB2934802 is already installed.  Searched computer for KB.....02 and Flash Player.  Says none exist.  Any suggestions?

    Ever since Windows 8, Flash Player for Internet Explorer is written by Adobe ONLY. It's embedded by Microsoft, and you cannot:
    - Update it
    - Download it
    - Install it
    - Reinstall it
    from here. You MUST update Flash Player ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) through Windows update. But... Using Windows 8.1 means you were forced to update to IE11, which has it's own problems and they can be summed up in three words...
    "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 thay'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.
    The REAL solution, like the original problem can also be summed up in three words:
    "Use 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.

  • Help! Cannot install Flash Player 11 on 10.8.5

    Hello -  I am now desparate having checked both Adobe and Apple forums as I have tried to upgrade Flash on my Imac Mountain Lion 10.8.5 (Safari 6.1) and continually get General Installation errors. I have followed every thread that I can find on this (including the classic how to do a clean install of Flash) and cannot get past 55% installation before it crashes. This happens every time without fail.
    Done a clean install of Mountain Lion, switched accounts and nothing works. Simply cannot download Flash.
    if anyone can help that would be amazing!
    Thanks
    matt

    Odds are, you inadvertently deleted the mach_kernel file that the 10.8.5 update made visible.
    That's been the cause of the "General Installation Error" since the update was released.
    See: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1318151 for instructions and a download that may help.
    Many people have had to reinstall their OS, but some were able to remedy it by downloading and installing OS 10.9 (it's free, so it couldn;t hurt to try if the other fix doesn't work)

  • Cannot install flash player partially uninstalled

    Dear community members,
    I successfully installed Flash Player back in April. It was working well until a couple of weeks ago, when video clips wouldn't work sometimes, but did with a bit of coaxing. The sites affected were - Facebook, Iview (TV), Youtube,and my bank's website. The same applied when playing games. The situation has now degraded to the extent that I cannot access any of the sites listed, and get video/voice.
    I downloaded the instructions to uninstall, and downloaded the .exe file and ran it (no problems). However, the instructions said to delete files in the system32\Macromed\flash directory, but when I tried to I was told I didn't have the right privileges. I have administrator rights. How higher can one Go?
    I tried to install again, only to be told that Flash Player is already installed. How do I fix Flash Player, when I cannot uninstall or install it? Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
    Regards,
    Gazza
