Hi..
Assuming you are using Safari ...
Quit Safari.
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Storage tab. Click: Delete All
Now uninstall the Flash plugin then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Make sure to uninstall the currently installed Flash plugin first.
Launch Safari From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.
BTW... if you have the ClickToFlash extension installed, that can prevent Flash based video from streaming. It can also be installed as a plugin in /Library/Internet-Plug-Ins.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

I need the link to download Adobe Flash Player 64 bit for Windows 2008 server

http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
The page has javascript to determine OS and bit rate. it WILL provide you the correct download.

Is the webpage for downloading Adobe Flash broken?

I'm using Firefox 25.0.1 with Windows 7 on a Dell laptop, and for the past 3 days I've tried unsuccessfully to download Adobe Flash Player. I start at this screen: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/. It shows the current version to be Version 11.9.900.152 and correctly identifies my system as Windows 64-bit , English, Firefox. I click on Install now and am taken to this screen: http://www.adobe.com/. This has a Black Friday deal offer which cannot be closed, and in the lower right, a box for Downloads. I click on Adobe Flash Player, and am taken back to this screen: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/. This is an endless loop, and at no point do I get a download.
Can I report this somewhere other than this forum?
Thanks for any feedback.

The problem is that the "Optional offer:" part* is not shown in Firefox at the site https://get3.adobe./en/flashplayer/update/plugin/ and you can't download anything then.
My version of Firefox: 25.0.1

In Internet Explorer 11 the download works fine.
Please fix it.
* I do not understand why Adobe is including this "Optional Offer", which is activated by default.
That kind of "if you don't read properly, you download/install software you nerver wanted"-thing is common these days and it screws up so many computers.

Safari cannot download adobe flash player

when i try to view tv programs on my 2nd generation ipod touch i'm informed that the adobe flash player is needed. when i try to download the flash player i get the error message that safari cannot download the file. what might be causing that problem and what can be done about it?

then why does apple advertise that videos can be downloaded and viewed on the touch?
Because it's true.
Flash is only one of the many video formats available online. The iPod touch supports many open video formats (they are listed on the specifications page).
Flash is a proprietary format owned by Adobe - it is not an open standard.
You can view videos, films, music videos etc. from the iTunes Store, and also any web-site that uses the standard MP4 format. There are also 1000's of videos in the YouTube application. You can also convert your own videos and view them on the iPod touch.

I don't have the authority to download Adobe Flash Player. I'm using Microsoft Security Essentials. HOW DO I FIX THIS?????

I go to download this and it goes it install but then gives me error message: don't have authority to download.

Hi Lezotte, are you using this site for the download: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
This page also has a download for the latest player (but I don't know whether it will work any better): https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
Would it be possible to capture a screen shot of the message you're receiving, or give the exact wording (so it's easy to search)? This article has tips on screen shots: [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]] Please delete or blur any sensitive information before attaching the image to your reply post.

I can't download Adobe Flash Player? It gets to 50% and fails, saying I must close 'Safari'. Safari is no open, yet it gets stuck repeatedly on this?

This is my first Mac and I'm not convinced of them.....nah, I just need a shove in the right direction.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Is this a problem with the DOWNLOAD or with the INSTALLATION? You should be able to download with Safari open but you do have to quit Safari in able to install. Try downloading the dmg file, restart with no apps open and then trying to install Flash Player.

HT2506 After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer

After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer anymore. Any ideas would be helpful thanks

Merely clicking the Preview icon in the Dock doesn't cause it to open anything, unless you had one or more windows open the last time it quit.
If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
3. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
4. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

I want to download Adobe flash player 11.1 and when I try to download a message pops up that I need to close Mozilla Firefox. How do I close Firefox to download and then reopen it? Thank you

I am trying to log into a web based system, called Mortgage Coach from my laptop, in order for me to log onto Mortgage coach a message says that I need to download Adobe flash 11.1. Adobe cannot be installed until Mozilla is closed. I do not know how to close Firefox so that I can do the Adobe download and then reopen again to have Firefox. Help!

After the file is downloaded, you begin the installation. When the installation starts, bring Firefox down with "Alt+F" (File) > Quit that is the proper way to bring Firefox down.
If Firefox is still running after a few minutes then take firefox.exe down from the Windows Task Manager, from the "Processes" Tab. Also you might want to take down the plugin-container.exe as well.

In eBay & YouTube, I get the message to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player; I have gone through the download and installation procedure several times, but still get the same message - why can't I install the latest version on Firefox?

In eBay, I was trying to upload pictures when I got this message: "You need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to use the standard picture uploader.
Download and install the latest version from Adobe before continuing."
In YouTube, when trying to watch a video, I got this message: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
I have gone through the procedure for downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, but still get the same messages when I reopen Firefox and revisit these sites.
There does not seem to be the same problem with Safari, which runs the latest version of Adobe Flash Player with no trouble.
I am using an iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.6.7.

You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.
*http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

When I try to download Adobe Flash Player, it says I need to quit out of Safari even when it's closed. How do I fix this?

Apologies for the slightly pedantic answer, but in application terms, "closed" and "quit" are two different things. An application such as Safari can have several windows open, and each of them can be closed using the red button in the corner.
However, even after all windows are closed, the application is still running until you specifically quit it. You can tell it's still running by the small light under its icon in the Dock. If you hold your cursor down on the icon for a few seconds, you should see a pop up menu with the "Quit" option - click that to quit it. Or, click the icon once (this may launch a new window), then either go to the Safari menu and click Quit, or click cmd-Q, to completely quit the app.

I am trying to download Adobe Flash player and it is asking me to close Mozilla Firefox, how do I do this?

I am trying to download Adobe Flash Player and it is asking me to close Mozilla Firefox before it will download. How do I do this?

Save the Flash installer to the desktop and close Firefox via File > Exit or Firefox > Exit.
Then run the Flash installer with a double lick on that desktop icon.<br />
You may need to use "Run as Administrator" via the right-click context menu of that file.

I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Player, but the yellow bar with the 'Allow' button doesn't come up, so the programme is being blocked, giving me no ability to unblock it.

A bar is supposed to come up, when I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Player. The bar is supposed to have an option to 'Allow' the download. The programme is being blocked and is not downloading, but the bar doesn't come up, so I'm unable to enable its download.

The instructions you are referring to are out of date and not the ideal way to install / update Flash.
Instead:
# Download (save to your desktop) http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
# Download http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
# Close Firefox
# Run uninstall_flash_player.exe, click through to uninstall any old versions of Flash
# Run install_flash_player.exe to install Flash.

HT5655 I have followed your instruction on downloading Adobe Flash Player but the final screen comes up with Blocked Plug-in so back to square one? Help?

After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’.
