Downloading Adobe Flashplayer Updates

Since I could not reach a live body or post this to customer service, I choose to vent this here.
I find it intrusive to have Google Chrome and Google Toolbar installed on my operating system without my agreement every time there is an update for Adobe Flashplayer.  Once the download is complete, I have to take the time to go to my control panel and delete these two unnecessary and useless items from my computer.
Is there some way to avoid this other than not using Adobe Flashplayer?

Uncheck the bundled software from the download panel before downloading the installer.
Or download the offline installer from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    Hey gilbertfreedman,
    Could you please tell me what version of Adobe Flash Player are you using.
    From where have you been trying to download Flash Player updates?

    You might try installing the latest version of Flash Player from the link mentioned below:

  • Can't download Adobe Flashplayer update

    I cannot download an update for Adobe Flash Player. The Fireox instructions say that an 'Allow' button should appear at the top of the creen when I press the downoad btton. This does not happen. Instead a button comes up saying 'Install missing plugin'. When I press that a message comes up, 'No suitable plugins were found'. Can anyone suggest where to go next?

    I have just downloaded firefox 3.6.11 and adobe flashplayer update and adobe reader update. Now I cannot get firefox to open. I have tried removing Firefox but when I try to do that it says that I need to close firefox - but of course it is not open. I have waited a long time but nothing has happened so I am getting desperate Thanks -- Jerry

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

  • Is it safe to download adobe flashplayer from the internet?T

    Is it safe to download adobe flashplayer from the internet. I am new in the Apple environment and my MacBook asks me whether I am sure I want to proceed?
    Thanks,

    If you never installed Flash before you should Cancel and download it directly here
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Once it's installed it will perform a update check when you use Flash and a gray window will popup letting you know to update the browser plug-in called Flash.
    If you see such a window, you should quit your browser(s) immediatly and if the window remains, proceed with the update.
    You will have to quit all open browser(s) anyway to install the update.
    You will need to provide your password for the update.
    There is a tiny check box on the left that needs to be clicked if the "install" button doesn't seem to work.
    If you don't want to update Flash, you should remove it from your computer as older versions are a very high security risk.
    It is not unusual, to have what may appear to be, many updates to Flash. It is updated often for security issues. As well as Silverlight.
    Bookmark this link to check your browser plug in status.
    https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    Note: The white window with "Adobe Flash Player Install Manager" with the "Deny" and "Allow" buttons you will not see, that's security software called LittleSnitch, that I have installed to warn me of any unusual outgoing Internet connections.

    Why can't I download adobe flashplayer?

    I have a i5 iMac with MacOS 10.9, Firefox, Chrome and Safarie.  My systems says there is an update to Flashplayer.   I click on OK and it sends me to the Adobe page where there is a button to download Flashplayer.   I click on the button and it takes me to www.adobe.com.   When I place the cursor over the link Firefox show the link as www.adobe.com and no file to download.   How can I update Flashplayer?   Is your page link broken?

    Cannot download Adobe Flashplayer, window opens and stops at 25%.  Safari 8.0.4, MacBook Air 2013.  How do I update Flash?

    Install Flash Player in Safe Mode.
    Shut down the computer.
    Press the power button. Immediately after you hear the startup sound, press and hold the Shift key.
    The Shift key should be pressed as soon as possible after startup,but not before the startup sound.
    Release the Shift key when you see the Apple logo on the screen. Startup will take longer than usual.
    Login to your account. Launch Safari.
    Enter this  address in the Safari address bar manually.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Follow the prompts. Install it.
    Once done, quit Safari and restart the computer from  in the menu bar.
    Allow  Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Internet Plug-ins >  "Allow  plug-ins"
    Enable it.

I'm experincing problem watching some movies or anything similar on Youtube because Adobe Reader is not up to date. So, I followed the instruction for downloading the new update, but, it stops at 97% and I getting a message to close Safari, although, the Safari is closed when installing the update. what should do for the proper installation?
    <Subject Edited by Host>

    Sorry, none of that worked. Its very frustrating.
    Also, since the last upgrade, which seems almost automatic, half of the icons for my bookmarks and actual websites have disappeared.
    I haven't upgraded to Mac OS Lion, is that part of these problems?

  • Can't download Adobe Flashplayer

    I have a Sanyo Incognito Boost Mobile phone.  I have been trying to download Adobe Flashplayer so that I can watch videos and play games on Facebook.  I do not own a computer, just my mobile phone.  Does anyone know how I can make this happen?  Someone help please!!

    Flash Player requires a CPU with support for the ARMv7-A instruction set to achieve the level of performance required for acceptable multimedia playback.
    Your device has an ARM11 CPU, which only supports the ARMv6 instruction set.
    For future reference, Adobe maintains a list of devices certified to work with Adobe Flash Player and AIR here:
    http://www.adobe.com/flashplatform/certified_devices/
    You might want to give Skyfire a try.  It uses "remote desktop" technology to render Flash animation and video in the cloud, for devices that are incapable of processing Flash content natively:

  • How can i download Adobe flashplayer for my Ipad2

    How can i download Adobe flashplayer for my IPad 2

    Adobe never produced a version of flash for ios.
    Adobe has killed mobile flash for all devices.
    You can play flash content with various levels of success by downloading an alternate browser which users servers to convert the flash to ios compatible formats
    Skyfire, puffin, iswifter, photon are a few you can look at.

    Try emptying your browser cache more often. If you are using Safari, from the menu bar top of your screen click Safari > Empty Cache
    Try a video on FB. If can't stream Flash content, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset.
    If that doesn't help, try deleing Flash cookies >  Flush.app – Flash Cookie Removal Tool For OS X | MacHacks.TV
