Downloading Flash Player and forced to install trial PhotoShopper or LightRoom

When downloading Flash Player I have three steps to be taken and during the first step I am asked to close Internet Explorer and doing so it will finish the installation of FlashPlayer then I and forced to use Creative Cloud and one of the products there like PhotoShopper or LightRoom. When I select for a trial of PS or LR it says it tells me that it has stored a version of Creative on my download path and when clicking there to start, nothing happens.
What is the best option to do, I would like to have Flash Player only and maybe later on PS but not now. I have a Adobe membership.

I installed the latest version of flash player and it said installed successfully and i can use it just fine, but when I checked system requirements it didnt seem to match. it needed 2.33 ghz and I have 2.13ghz. can this cause problems to my computer? i have an intel i3 proccessor, windows 7, internet explorer.

Since all Intel i3 processors have at least 2 cores, your specs are well above the requirements; see http://ark.intel.com/products/family/75025#@All
I have some computers with far slower processors, and Flash Player 14 works perfectly well on them too.

Hi,
Where can I download Flash Player 10.0 msi install ?
Can't find it in the download section.
Thx. in advance.

Sorry, you asked for 10.0 - I posted the 10.1 download.
I will have to do some research if the 10.0 MSI is still available for download somewhere.

Download flash player and install but still do not work

i tries to watch yahoo video, then tell me to download flash player, after download and install, when i point to video, then want me to download again, and aga in. still can not watch video

What is your operating system, version & edition?
What is your web browser?

I downloaded Flash Player and it still says I need to download!

I and using a Mac OS X version 10.5.8 and I recently updated Safari to version 5 and ever since my Flash Player hasn't been working. When I try to watch videos, it says I need to download Flash Player, so I go through the whole download process and when I try to watch a video, it still says I need to download Flash Player. When I troubleshoot my flash player it says "content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player" but I have the newest version. My Flash PLayer worked fine until I updated Safari, why is this happening?

Hi, It would be nice if the websites would use the word "Install" instead of download; big difference:-) Flash Player works in the browser, so the websites are looking for the Flash Player control, which is the Shockwave Flash which should be in your Safari browser. If you have Quicktime and know where the plugins are located, look for it there. It must be there and Enabled.
If not, then my guess is that the update to the newer version of Safari either caused a glitch or disabled it.
Using Safari, go here to test, then let me know if you can see the animation of the Flash logo(spins) and what version of Flash Player is displayed. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

Downloaded Flash Player and I hear the radio

I have Downloaded Flash Player 11 and I hear radio commercials. I uninstalled it and the commercials went away. I reinstalled and they commercials came back. I have downloaded this from several different sites and I get the same commercials. How do I get rid of the commercials? I wan to us flash player because frankly I am tired of the pop up coming every time I click on a video. Any help getting rid of the Commercials would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I have been on youtube and break.com to watch a video a friend sent. I heard something about "mania tv".Sometimes they are local commercials to my area for a local car dealership, there were t mobile commercials as well. When I have uninstalled flash player there were no more commercials. When I reinstalled the commercials came back. When I closed all the browsers the commercials were still on. I ra a virus scan with McAfee Total protection and there were no virus'. I was looking on McAfee just now and it says protects against virus and spayware but I didn't see anything about Malware. What is that?

Downloaded flash player and dekstop got deleted

After I downloaded adobe flash player to my desktop, all my icons on my desktop are gone. Where did my desktop Icons go? I did a search on my computer of the files I was just working with but I could not find them. Using windows 7 professional 32 bit and internet explorer 8, when adobe air asked me where I wanted to download it to I pointed it to my desktop, then everything on my desktop just vanished, poof, gone, no delete file confirmation, not even a warning or a hint that stuff might get deleted. After looking around online I've seen other people have had similar issues. What world does adobe live in where a download manager program will delete files that it has no business touching... that is the opposite of downloading, I need my files back. Am I **** outta luck because of the rudeness/incompetance of Adobe? Did these files get moved / renamed / encrypted somewhere where an ignorant user cannot access them (because I clearly cannot use a download manager thus I should not have access to any computer files) Is there any more information out there about this problem? I've downloaded flash dozens of times in the past and have never had a problem like this. Do other folders run the risk of deletion when I DOWNLOAD something from adobe?

Downloading Flash Player plays advertisement -- and installs a virus?

I've had this problem 3 times consecutively trying to restore my system after it was destroyed by what seems to be a virus. It took that many tries before I realized the in-your-face advertisement and problem process are coming from Adobe itself.
THE PROBLEM
The apparently viral process runs as SVCHOST and uses the RasMan (remote access manager) service, apparently to transmit the contents of your hard drive to someone across the internet. It takes 99% of CPU, 1/2 Gig of memory, a lot of disk activity, and high transmit volume with low receive volume over the network. Unplug the network, and the SVCHOST falls to about 35% CPU with more intermittent disk activity. Plug the network back in, and it climbs back to 99% with high disk activity, and high transmit volume. It seems clear that it's copying the hard drive out to the network. Before I realized that, I thought it might be an internal process and just let it run to get it over with. It just got worse, finally running the machine out of memory and making it almost too slow to terminate the SVCHOST. When I finally did terminate it, the machine returned to normal.
WHY I THINK IT COMES FROM ADOBE
I restored my system to a known clean state from a disk image. I've done that 5 times now. The first thing I do on booting the restored system is wait and check for that process -- it's not there. Next, I update Firefox, then wait again. No problem, as long as you don't click on the Update Flash Player link. Then you click on that link, and immediately there's a pop-up and it plays audio saying "You've won a free Xbox", or else some other advertisement -- it's not always the same -- and also opens a tab to a site outside of both Firefox and Adobe. Some advertising site. So, I first thought I'd been spoofed by a false advertisement and unwittingly clicked on a malicious ad banner. Restored the system again, and next time went directly to Adobe. Clicked the link to download Flash Player, and... immediately, a similar ad popup and tab appeared, and it played a "congratulations! .... you've won ____" audio clip.
Right after each incident where the ad appeared, the computer began bogging down with disk activity and high CPU consumption by that SVCHOST process, and apparently copying out the hard drive to the internet (high network transmit activity).
IT'S NOT THE PLAYER ITSELF
I never even got around to downloading and installing the player. The trouble started right after that ad popping up.
CONCLUSION
So, Adobe has sold out. Not only is Flash responsible for most viruses transmitted, now just to get the player Adobe itself is shoving an obnoxious ad in our faces which installs a trojan. A Malwarebytes scan before the Adobe-shoved ad came up clear. Another scan after the Adobe-shoved ad detected a trojan and attempted to remove it, but it just comes back every time you restart the machine, and copies your business machine's hard drive out to the network.
So, Adobe, who has obtained copies of my business's intellectual property (I'm a software developer) and financial records, as well as sensitive data such as accounts and passwords?
CONSEQUENCES
Incidentally, this came at the moment when I was transitioning from developing native applications for desktop and mobile platforms. It was my intention to transition to using Adobe Flex for most work in the next few years at least. I had the Flash Builder on two of my systems, and was starting to work with it.
But this incident, combined with numerous past incidents that have made me absolutely hate both Flash and Adobe, was the final straw. I have deleted all Adobe products from all of my systems, and will not be using Adobe Flash or Flex or any other Adobe products for development or anything else. Now I understand why Steve Jobs also dumped Adobe -- it's nothing but a viral company! Adobe itself is like a virus.
Thanks for wasting a day on a holiday weekend trying to restore my system just so I can resolve a minor customer issue. Thanks, gals. Hope you enjoy the millions you get from that advertisement, but in my case it caused me to return to native development for all platforms instead of using Flash, Air, Flex, or any of the other viral stuff you use to invade 99% of all systems on the planet and then shove ads and more spyware on us.
I've also uninstalled Photoshop. (The uninstallation took 45 minutes.) I can just use GIMP, it's good enough now. Adobe = BANNED, because all that Adobe stands for anymore is VIRAL.
Thanks again

Thanks for the reply. I forgot to include:
-- Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) running on a 1.9 MHz Turion X2, with 2G memory
-- Already-installed Flash version was 10.x, I think 10.1, but hadn't been updated for months since it was a restored backup.
-- Firefox 3.6.13, just updated to 3.6.18 (yes, I've tried 4.0, it was slow and annoying, so I went back)
-- Other software on the machine: Microsoft Office, development tools (Visual Studio, Eclipse with Andriod and RIM plugins, BlackBerry JDE, Sun Java SDK, Firefox, Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, Adobe Reader, Adobe AIR, Adobe Shockwave, Flash Builder, and a few old trusted versions of minor utilities such as WinZip, DivX, Grep, etc.)
-- Only changes for several months were: Installed Flash Builder, updated Firefox, tried to update Flash Player
I only reacted this way because I've lost SO MUCH time and also data, adding up no doubt to YEARS of time, primarily because the platforms of two companies (Microsoft and Adobe) are like warm, moist, undressed flesh wounds that just invite every kind of infection to enter and flourish. It's not just their prevalence, it's their design. For example, why can a Flash program insert native code into a SVCHOST, when it's nearly impossible to figure out what's running in the SVCHOST, what it's doing, where it came from, and how to kill it permanently? That just creates conditions favorable to malware.
Anyway, after restoring my system to a snapshot of a known clean state, I first selected Check for Updates in Firefox, it downloaded it update. Then I unplugged from the net before letting it restart and install, and it did its thing. Then I plugged back in and went directly to www.adobe.com, selected Flash Player under Downloads, clicked Download Now, and then up popped the advertisement right after the click.
Previously, I let Firefox finish its update still plugged in -- it took me to their site, where a banner appeared saying Flash needed to be updated. I clicked that, and a similar ad popped up (for a different product, and using a different URL, but the same type of thing -- an instant audio message and a new tab plus a small pop-up.)
So it seems clear that Adobe has decided to make some extra millions by forcing everyone who downloads Flash Player (at least from a Windows machine last night and this morning) to hear "Congratulations! You've just won an imaginary Xbox 360 in compensation for letting our ad partners copy your hard drive and pay us money at your expense -- you thought Adobe would just give you a Player for free?! If you're further stupid enough to try to claim your imaginary prize, just enter more personal information, as well as the address and phone number of your girlfriend, because what Flash is all about is invading the home, popping up and penetrating the market by force, never really taking NO for an answer -- we'll just starve her and keep asking until she says Yes."
Ruthless advertising is just completely out of control on the internet. When you show up on the site of a major company and get hit with an obnoxious scam pop-up ad that's just like something you'd get from making the mistake of visiting some unknown website -- you know, the kind that escape the borders of the window and say you've just won a million dollars, and that are usually followed by a phony "virus scanner" taking over your machine any moment -- then internet ethics have been completely overrun by the glut for advertising money and collecting valuable information from users.
Can't BELIEVE I got a pop-up ad and spyware from trying to download Flash Player directly from Adobe's site, what is this company coming to? I don't remember the details exactly, but there was some other instance -- with Reader, I think -- where they were bundling spyware with it, and doing it in a way that you would not realize it would be installed, and then it was hard to get rid of completely. There was a big row about it, and I remember having to restore my system multiple times there too, to ensure no contamination. That's why I'd gone back to an earlier version of Reader, but now I've deleted all Adobe software completely. It is the most unethical of all the big technology companies, no-one is more ruthless or viral than Adobe.
You've got plenty of money, you're rolling in money, and you resort to stuff that crooks use to make their start-up capital?

I cannot download Flash Player: why and how?

I can not down flash player. Why and How do I do it?

Hi, skyskyblue2,
I can't quite tell whether you can't find Flash Player to download or once you start downloading, problems ensue.
Can you give us a bit more details about the problem?
Also, here's a link the Flash Player help hub. It has a Download Flash Player and links to answers to common problems with Flash Player.

Flash Player and Windows 7

OK. I also have the issue with Flash Player seeming to download and install but not work.   I checked the activex addons and it shows up. I can't find a directory anywhere even after changing the settings to show all.
And if this is not annoying enough I have the same problem w shockwave.
I realize that w W7 I'm missing something but with all the reorganization I can't find things.
Suggestions please.
I did find in control panel a selection called default programs and under that a selection which is associate file extentions w programs
I see that .swf is for shockwave flash player but it labeled as unknown app. It appears that I can set that but first have to find the programs.    even after setting file options to show hidden files I could not find either the shockwave or flash player
Well I am not sure if I have progress or regression.... I deinstalled it all. then reinstalled shockwave. It said I needed to reboot to complete the install. I let it.... no shockwave. I went back out to the installation and tried again and it says I need to reboot to complete the install. I've gone round this loop 4 times.   I checked in the registry for anything adobe and only found reader.
I guessl neither shockwave nor flash player is compatible w W 7 yet

well after 3-4 reboots it says it's installed... again... but still does not work. I found another thread here that said it should be under windows/system32/Macromed/ ... something..   I don't have the directory Macro anything directory.
Message was edited by: AnnoyedInOH

First. IE has entries for the flash player and shockwave. The Java level I have is JAVA 6 update 14
Second. Both the flash player and shockwave are installed according to Programs and Features on the control panel.
Third: There is no Macromed directory under system23. I did find one under: c:\windows\SysWOW64. The Macromed directory does have a Flash directory with 4 files. Flash10d.ocx, FlashUtil10d.exe, an install log and uninstall_activeX.exe
Fourth. The control panel has a selection called: Default programs. when I click on that I see a selection that allows me to associate a file type with a program. In that list .swf is not associated w anything.    Since .swf files are not associated w the flash player should I associate them with the flash player?
I have no problem w updating Java to update 18. I am reluctant to delete the older version though as I have encounterd programs in the past which won't run with newer ones.

Wrong version of Flash player and wrong colors

Video playing in Flash has color shifted vertically, leaving a green stripe at the bottom, and grey areas in the video. I wanted to install the latest version again in case mine was corrupted. The Adobe site has the latest version as 3.300.268, yet I had 270 on my PC. The install would not work, saying I had a later version. Uninstalled my flash player, and tried to install 268, but it still says I have a newer version, even though no player shows up in Control Panel, or in the Internet Explorer plug-ins. What do I do now? I cannot install Flash player, nor can I play any videos at all.
