Error message installing Flash Player

During installation I get a message saying "cannot create
temporary file. Perhaps hard drive is full?" Hard drive has about 5
GB open. I have tried every troubleshooting technique i can find
and no change, Install went ok on my desktop, but not on
laptop.

Download these two files:'
Windows 64-bit: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash _player_64bit.exe
Flash Player for Internet Explorer
Exit browser and disconnect from the Internet.
Run uninstaller and reboot.
Delete the Flash folder in folders C:\Windows\System32\Macromed and C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed.
Delete the Flash Player folder in %appdata%\Adobe and %appdata%\Macromedia.
Run installer.

No mountable File System error while installing Flash Player

Hi all,
i've been having a no mountable file system error while installing Flash Player. At first i thought it was a problem with the download but i've tried many times and still have the same error when installing the player. I've attached a screenshot of the error message.
Hopefully someone can shed some light. I'm using a 2012 Mac Mini running Mountain Lion on a Fusion Drive.

Use File Assassin. If it can't remove it. it CAN'T BE REMOVED.

NPSWF32.dll error when installing flash player

I've been trying to install flash player but I keep getting the same error when I try:
Error opening file for writing C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\NPSWF32.dll
When I ignore that one I get another error
Error opening file for writing C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe
and then when I ignore this it 'finishes downloading', but it's basically useless and does not work. I went to the location above to see if I could find the file- NPSWF32.dll, but it's not there. There is a macromed and Flash folder but it is empty inside. I downloaded the NPSWF32.dll and tried to put it in the flash folder but the system wouldn't let me. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but I keep getting the same error. it is driving me insane, please help me if you are familiar with this problem. i googled this and saw that a lot of people had this problem as well but i've yet to find a working solution. I'm on windows vista and im using 3.6 firefox.

Hi , The files you are speaking of are removed with the Adobe Uninstaller and then the Installer will install the needed
files into the Flash folder.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html Download this Uninstaller and put it on your Desktop
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe This is the FF Installer, SAVE it to your Desktop
Since I don't know what add ons, extensions or plugins you have, Just disable them all for now.
Follow the instructions for the Uninstaller, close all browsers, check the system tray. No programs that use Flash should
be running.
Disconnect from the Internet
Disable any and all Anti-Virus/Spyware programs that run in realtime.
Disable any Firewall that you use, except Windows Firewall
Run the Uninstaller from your Desktop, then Reboot. Wait until fully Rebooted, then Reboot again
Run the Installer from your Desktop, then Reboot
Enable your Firewall and your Anti-Virus/Spyware programs
Connect back to the Internet
Go to this Adobe test site to confirm you have the FP vs 10.0.42.34 installed http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about
Go to your plugins and make sure you have SWF(Shockwave Flash) vs 10.0.42.34 there and it is Enabled
Enable Java-the latest is JRE 6 update 18.
Then check your Flash folder and post back with the files that are now installed.
Now if you have old versions of Java installed(check the Add/Remove) you would need to Remove them via Add/Remove
and install the latest Java. NOTE: You can do this prior to the Uninstall/Install process. Post back and I'll give you the Java install procedure.
Thanks

I keep getting an error message, the flash player won't install, help?

I'am using internet explorer 8 and I followed all the trouble shooting steps in the support center but i keep getting this message:
"Error opening for file writing: C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10d.ocx".
The Pop up that allows it to download the file isn't coming up, but when i tried to download the Adobe air and it came up. I checked all the security settings in the Internet options and followed it but still the same. What could this mean? Thank you.

Try the following:
download the Flash Player uninstaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html (save to disk);
download the offline ActiveX installer http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe (save to disk);
close all browser windows, then run the downloaded uninstaller;
open Windows Explorer, then check that %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash is empty (or non-existant);
now run the downloaded installer

ERROR MESSAGE regarding Flash Player

When i want to watch a program on BBC iplayer, it comes up with an error message saying that you must download Flash Player or that it is not up to date, however when i follow the link it brings me to a page that says that either ActiveX Filtering is on or Shockwave Flash Player is disabled, however i have checked both of these and it is not the case, I run Windows 8.1 and Internet Explorer (latest version). This has happened before and i have managed to fix it however it has returned and i have no clue how to make it work. Please Help!

About ActiveX Filtering
ActiveX Filtering TestDrive Demo
ActiveX Filtering allows you to browse the Web without running any ActiveX controls.
As you browse the Web, you may encounter webpages that don't work properly unless you install an ActiveX control. ActiveX controls are powerful browser plugins that enable many rich web experiences. However, many of these controls are written by 3rd parties and Microsoft cannot guarantee their quality.
After installing an ActiveX control to use on a particular site, you may find that this control is now running on many other websites as well. Sometimes, such controls may be used to display content that you don't want to see, and they might even prevent you from having a good experience when viewing the webpage. Moreover, ActiveX controls may introduce performance, reliability, security or privacy issues while browsing.
ActiveX Filtering puts you even more firmly in control of the ActiveX controls running in your browser. When ActiveX Filtering is enabled, you can choose which websites you want to allow to run ActiveX controls. Sites you have not approved cannot run these controls, and the browser will not show prominent notifications prompting you to install or enable them.
Try it out!
You can test-drive ActiveX Filtering by following the instructions below!
First, enable ActiveX Filtering via the Tools Menu:
Tools > Safety > ActiveX Filtering
When you visit a webpage that contains ActiveX controls, IE will prevent the controls from loading. IE displays an icon in the address bar to indicate that the ActiveX controls have been filtered:
If you visit a webpage that contains ActiveX content you want to view, you can simply turn off filtering for that website. Click the icon to display the fly-out window.
From here you can choose to turn off ActiveX Filtering. Once you take action, IE refreshes the page to ensure that all ActiveX content on the webpage runs. Now that you've turned off ActiveX Filtering for the webpage, the icon on the address bar changes state accordingly.
After you've finished viewing the content, you can click on the icon and turn filtering back on if you'd like, or you can leave filtering off for this website.
Reference:
Webpage with lots of ActiveX Controls: here
Webpage with ActiveX content you want to view: here
ActiveX is the number one reason I don't use IE. It's an ancient (in computer time) technology, dating back to 1993. EVERY other browser in the known world abandoned ActiveX more than a decade ago.

Error while installing Flash Player

Hi
I received the error while installing the flash player update.

IE8 script error while installing Flash Player

[WinXP (2002) SP3]
Installation of Flash Player 11 (tried this 10 or more times) is interrupted by an IE8 script error message "Object doesn't support this property or method" (Line: 207 Char: 1 Code: 0 URL: http://www.adobetag.com/d1/adobe/live/getadobecom.js), followed by the question “Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?” No matter if I answer Yes or No, installation proceeds and seems to finish normally, showing a new window saying “You are now using Flash Player 11”
But any link on any website that needs to use Flash Player refuses to run, asking again and again for a Flash Player download!
I checked my IE settings, they are all as they should be, allowing script running, etc.
What can I do?!

Hello,
Use Adobe Flash Player uninstaller : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
Once Flash Player is uninstalled then use the offline installer for Adobe Flash Player.
Thanks,

Error encountered installing flash player, please try again later.

MacBookPro 13" OS10.7.5 Have done 4 separate downloads over a couple of weeks, and get the same response each time I try to install. I have looked at help document and it has been no help. I currently do not have flash player installed. Tried to do the right click thing but show contents did not appear like Adobe showed. So I am stuck. Looked at response showing the mach kernel thing, do not know if that applies to me and seems beyond most average users of the computer. I am understanding why Steve Jobs stayed away from this mess. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Keep getting "General Install Error" when installing Flash Player 13 on Mac OSX 10.9.3

For about 2 weeks now I've been getting software update notifications for Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat X. Every time I run the update install I get an error that will not allow it finish. For Flash specifically that error says "General Install Error". I've uninstalled all of these programs to try to correct this error, now they are unable to be reinstalled due to this error. Please help!

Hi Sanhodo4,
To confirm, did you actually terminate the Safari process, or simply close the Safari windows? If you closed just the browser window, the Safari process was not terminated. Please refer to How do I quit Safari (or another browser/app) in OS X.
