Downloading New Flash Player

While attempting to download new Flash Player, I am told to exit internet explorer. I have tried to exit when it tells me to and I have tried to exit before loading, and it still gives the same message to exit IE. I have zero IE windows open and it still won't finish downloading.

Non-Technical Person Having Horrible Difficulty Trying To Download New Flash Player

I no very little about computer support and have little knowledge of attempting to navigate around the computer trying to correct errors.
I switched from IE 9 to Fire Fox, and now I cannot use videos, because I keep getting alert that I need to upgrade to new Adobe Flash Player. I have tried doing this all day. I get to the download, and confirm to download the new Flash Player upgrade. A prompt comes up to SAVE the file which I do. Sometimes it says Fire Fox not responding, and other times it seems to work. Then I get a prompt to RUN the new program via the download. It does not download. When I hit RUN again, it says that two consecutive downloads are now occurring. It is not running and completing the upgrade.
I searched trobuleshooting tips and it said to uninstall any prior Flash Player programs. I believe I did that.
The whole process of downloading starts over and still nothing.
At one point, something to download. I think it is when I tried to download from the Adobe site. Then it said that the Plug-In could not be found Fire Fox.
I am getting out of my league as to what to do next and how to fix this issue.
Thanks for nay help or advice. Oh, and if you do have advice or direction, please try and communicate it in steps, because as stated previously, I am almost totally clueless on how to correct issues or even take the necessary steps when it comes to resolving computer issues.

This is turning into a mess for troubleshooting.
I click on the link to see what version I have and this appears:
Windows
Internet Explorer (and other browsers that support Internet Explorer ActiveX controls and plug-ins)
10.3.183.10
Windows
Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera (and other plugin-based browsers)
10.3.183.10
Is this my version?
What's the next step?
Somebody should know the correct procedures to follow. The step-by-step listings for troubleshooting keep leading me into a circle of download and SAVE....double-click and RN....and then nothing.
Need help here.

Some MacBook Pro versions cannot be upgraded past 10.6.8; others are maxed out at 10.7.5. newer models can go all the way to 10.10. So it is important to know exactly what version you have--there may be close to 40 variants produced since the MB made its debut in 2006.
You can safely give us a snapshot of your model and its current config that will allow us to deternmmine your model and its upgrade potential, plus show it you have any software that may impede any upgrades. Please download and install this free utility:

Run the program and click the "Copy report to clipboard" button when it displays the results. Then return here and paste the report into a response to your initial post. It can often show if any harmful files/programs are dragging down your performance.
Remember that, on leaving OS10.6.8, you lose the ability to run older softare written for older PowerPC Macs (yours in Intel-based). Programs such as Office 2004 will no longer work (min of Office 2008 needed to work on newer OS versions), and AppleWorks will stop working completely

How do I download adobe flash player on my new imac

how do I download adobe flash player on my new imac

This is asking you to store persistent Flash Cookies (meaning, they are not deleted when you delete your ordinary cookies.) Some sites will not work unless you allow them. Here's how to prevent them from getting on your computer in the first place, while keeping Flash and these sites working.
If you use Firefox, get the Add-on Better Privacy, which will delete them when you quit Firefox.
Or, trick these sites into thinking they are actually storing this crap: (These directions are for Flash Player 10 and above.)
Using the following, no LSOs (Flash Cookies) will be stored and yet Flash is tricked into thinking they are. As far as I can tell all sites employing Flash will function properly; nothing will be broken, including Comedy Central with its streaming video content. (In the directions above, I had mistakenly recommended setting the Storage panel in the local Flash Pref Pane to not allow. It must be left as "Allow sites to store...." This was why the Comedy Central clip I had been trying to play wasn't working.)
First, to get a new, clean folder, start by trashing the Macromedia folder in ~/Library/Preferences. That's in your user Library. Next, do not visit the local Flash Pref Pane in Sys Prefs. Instead, go directly to Adobe Global Privacy settings in the Adobe Settings Manager and set Camera and Mic to "Always deny." Visiting the Settings Manager will automatically create a new, clean Macromedia folder.
(If you first visit the local Flash Pref Pane, the new Macromedia folder will lack the empty default #shared objects folder and its also empty enclosed folder (this is the one with a combination of characters and numerals.) I haven't tested to see what will happen if those two folders are not present. I assume, providing the Macromedia folder is unlocked, they would be created as soon as one visits a Flash site, but they will not be empty and this would defeat the entire purpose.)
If you visit the local Flash Pref Pane now, all the defaults will remain, except for the Camera and Mic panel, where "Always deny" will be checked. Next, it seems prudent to go to the Playback panel and check "Block all sites from using peer assisted networking." But, important, in the Storage panel, you must leave the default "Allow sites to save...." checked. This is how sites using Flash are tricked into thinking storage of Flash Cookies is being allowed when they are, in fact, not.
Next, go back to the Macromedia Folder and, using GetInfo/CMD-I, recursively lock all its enclosed folders. This means starting from the back working ones way up to the front. And, finally, lock the enclosing Macromedia folder itself. Nothing gets stored and everything keeps on working.
(Thanks to Anon at XYMer's for this.)
EDIT: Maybe something I don't know, but I don't think AdBlock in Safari will defeat Flash Cookies. There may be some Safari extension that will.
Maybe this extension

The New Flash Player Is Downloading Flash 9.0

I have downloaded Flash Player 10.1 & the link is downloading 9.0. Why hasn't anyone fixed this problem in the link?

The answer is actually Yes & No... The new Flash Player works on FireFox. It, however does NOT work with Windows. I am not apposed to using FireFox. I just don't understand why they couldn't fix the problem with Windows.
So in summery, I will use FireFox.
That is all I can help with.

After downloading, you need to run the installer.
Could you please visit this site: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
If Flash Player is installed in your machine, it will give you the version number.

How to download adobe flash player on new iPad?

How to download adobe flash player on new iPad?

Flash is only compatible with Windows, OS X and Linux. Adobe doesn't make Flash for iOS or Android

I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

The same thing happens to me, Safari asks me to update the Adobe FlasPlayer, I download, start the installation process, ask me my username and password in order to install, then see a window where I choose if I want to always install the updates , or ask first, or not inslate updates, and at this point it is not progress, I can not cancel the process, I turn off and turn on my machine.
What can I do ..??
Regards.

Can I download Adobe Flash Player on New iPad

Can I download Adobe Flash Player on New iPad?

No, flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
If you do a search on this forum you will find hundreds of other threads on the subject.

My brand new Mac ProBook keeps asking for an admin password to download Adobe Flash Player

My brand new Mac ProBook (OSX Mavericks 10.9.4) keeps asking for an admin password to download Adobe Flash Player and also when I try to set up adding my printer. The problem is that when I initially set up this new laptop--I opted to not have any password upon login. So what is my admin password that it keeps requesting??--that "I" did not create??

I have heard that Adobe Flash Player and Apple OS & iOS do NOT care much for each other.
Now half of Youtube videos would NOT play and many websites would NOT show on my Mac computer.
This is absolutely rediculous!
Because of the unfair monopoly, I have switched from Microsoft Windows PC to Apple Mac system a few years ago.
Is it a MUST and worthy for corporations to compete each other by screwing up customers like this?
What a shame!
Big things have small beginnings and so do big failures!
I think I will delay the idea of buying any more OS or iOS products until I can easily watch all the Youtube videos and browse all the websites!

Hi, I'm new to using mac laptop, i just got one 1 month a go, i was downloading adobe flash player and it asked me for a password for the computer and i never created one, how do i over pass this situation?

It is asking for your computer administrator account password to make system changes. You "should" have an administrator account password.
HTH

I download the new flash player and it goes all the way through and says finish but it does nothing

I go to Adode's website and download the new flash player because I can't watch clips all the sudden and I go all the way through the download and click finish. But when I go to say youtube it says I need a newer flash player. It's a never ending thing, no matter what I do it's the same over and over. Please help

It seems to be a browser specific issue. Try a different browser like chrome or firefox, it should work.
For fixing IE or Safari, lets follow below suggestions :
Run the Flash Player Uninstaller as applicable for your machine(i.e.Windows or MAC) and remove flash player.
For MAC : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
For Windows : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
Restart the machine.
Download and Re-install Flash Player.
Restart the browser and check.

Are you using a MAC or Windows ?
