Did I install Adobe Shockwave Player?

I'm not sure, but did I? I visited a site, and automatically it said ''Installing Adobe Shockwave Player.'' Of course I just navigated away from the site, but then a small window popped up that said ''Would you like to make the changes to this Computer?'' It was Adobe Shockwave Player! D:
Then a few hours later, a window popped up- something about Adobe Shockwave Player! I clicked on Remind Later.
And then later on another ''Would you like to make the changes to this Computer?'' appeared for Adobe Shockwave player.
Did I install it? And is there a way to check? To uninstall it?

Hi,
It's possible that AIR was installed silently by another application. If you are on Windows, could you check your Add/Remove Programs (or Programs and Features) control panel and look for an Adobe AIR entry? If that entry does not exist, could you please post the contents of your installer log so we could take a look?
Thanks,
Chris

I cannot install Adobe Shockwave Player in Firefox, works in Internet Explorer

I follow the instruction on McGraw-Hill website to install Adobe shock wave Player, but it will not install. A box pops up to abort, cannot be written. I then went to Internet Explorer and it installed fine so I could view the flash cards.

Verify that the pref dom.storage.enabled is set to true on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

I have looked on the internet, and have not found a single article about any Adobe ShockWave player for the BlackBerry PlayBook (neither positive, not negative).

Adobe Shockwave Player for OSX 10.7.1

Hello everyone,
I tried downloading and installing Adobe Shockwave player 11 (11.7 Megabytes) for Mac OSX, and I could not find neither the plug-in on Safari, nor the files that should have been copied to my disk. I've tried downloading alternate versions, but they've already shown to be incompatible with my system. Any help would be appreciated.

Player is working and I see it under Safari plug-ins, still I would like to know where the files from the installation went.

Hi, glad that worked for you. Also thanks for the explanation as how you came about this. Yes, from my understanding any Install of the CS5, even a trial version Installs the 10.1 (beta/prerelease) versions. It is not clear to me or others why the 10.1 was used in the CS5 instead of the latest version (10.0.45.2). My only guess is that the 10.1 is very close to being released as a shipping version (final release) to the public. The 10.1 had a target date of the first half of 2010. Perhaps that was the reasoning. This is just my opinion:-)
As I said, many users are having this problem, not just with the CS5, but they Install the 10.1 thinking that will solve whatever problem they may be having with the latest version.
Your thread is very helpful for other users that may be having the exact problem that you were. For this reason if you marked your thread as answered, they would read it first.
Thanks,

Why is Adobe Shockwave Player not installing on my mac, but telling me that it can't be installed on my computer and is saying it's not supported on my IOS version OS version?

I have a Macbook Pro and it's Using the latest IOS(Yosemite), but it's not allowing me to install Adobe shockwave. I go through all the steps and when I push install this comes up?

I thought this had been fixed in the latest version of the installer, but perhaps not. Try the option suggested in this thread

Uninstall Adobe Shockwave Player 11.0

While upgrading from Windows Vista - Windows 7, I run windows7 upgrade advisor to check the compatibility as suggested by Microsoft. The report shows following issue.
Adobe Shockwave Player
version 11.0
Adobe Systems, Inc.
Update available
We don't have compatibility information about this version of the program.
Get an update to a compatible version http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
I updated the latest version from the above link suggest by Advisor, but still the same issue was showing. Closing looking the latest version of Adobe Shockwave Player is 11.5 and the issue was showing for version 11.0. Looking further, for all the programs installed in Control Panel - Programs, I found my system have both Adobe Shockwave player (11.0 & 11.5). When I use Shockwave Player Uninstaller (sw_uninstaller.exe) this uninstall only new version (11.5) and old version remains without logo.
Please help to uninstall Adobe Shockwave Player version 11.0.

Should have looked through this forum a little closer:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/560708?tstart=0
I used the installation program for ShockWave 11.0 with the uninstall switch and this did uninstall it.
Since I am using an SCCM package to deploy the uninstall of SW 11.0 and the install of SW 11.5.6.606,
I used this line in my Installer package:
Execute msiexec /uninstall "Path\SWInstallFileName.msi" /quiet (Wait)
I had to rename the SW 11.0 installation filename since it was the same as the SW 11.5.6.606 installation filename
and I needed to use both .MSIs in my package.
This does not explain why the sw_uninstaller.exe provided by Adobe is not working though.
It would be nice to have an explanation and get this problem corrected so we can use sw_uninstaller.exe.

Tried to install Adobe Flash Player - says old version is outdated. Why does it say blocked plug in?

Tried to install Adobe Flash player update. Site says blocked plug- in ---so did the update work?

The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
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://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.

Adobe Shockwave Player 12.1 and forced reboot

Hello I work for a company with 8k computers and we use IEM (IBM Endpoint Manager) distribution tool. We started Adobe product patching in January and we encountered unexpected forced reboot on some Windows 8 computers. IEM creates installation scripts automatically and I have noticed that there are two installation files: sw_lic_full_installer.exe and sw_lic_slim_installer.exe. I have performed some test with both packages and on one PC where I tried sw_lic_slim_installer.exe the FORCED REBOOT occurred. I have checked event viewer logs and found the following lines:
Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: swMSM. Product Version 12.0.0.1. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Adobe Systems, Inc. installation success or error status:0
Windows Installer requires a system restart. Product Name: swMSM. Product Version 12.0.0.1. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Adobe Systems, Inc. installation success or error status:0
Ending a Windows Installer transaction: C:\windows\SysWOW64\Adobe\Schockwave 12\swMSM.msi. Client Process Id: 220.
The Windows Installer initiated a system restart to complete system restart to complete or continue the configuration of "swMSM".
Could you please explain me when Adobe Shockwave Player updates force a reboot? Unfortunately all updates are packed in exe files so I don't know any way how to suppress the reboot.
Additionally after the installation of the patch we see 2 entries in the control panel:
Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0
Adobe Shockwave Player 12.1
Can you tell me how to get rid of the Adobe Shockwave Player 12.0 entry? Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem on an iMac but managed to download and install shockwave 11, see Adobe - Webplayer
There appeared a notice for incompatibility, but was able to continue installation. Apps (not requiring sw 12) did run after.
