    You'll continue to have trouble, because...
    There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player. Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it drains your battery, also shortening the life of it. Android (Google) recommends using either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" as your browser if you need to view Flash content with a mobile device running Android. They're both free in the GooglePlay store.
    These browsers use "server side" rendering to reduce the load on your device.

  • Error code 1605 when installing Adobe Flash Player 11 ActiveX 11.9.900.152

    Hi there everyone, this is my first post over here.
    I have looked everywhere and can't seem to find a 1605 error code linked with Adobe Flash.
    I'm working on a project to fix Adobe Flash installation failures. The current error i'm stuck on is 1605
    The installs and uninstalls are already packaged, i only have around 5 failures so far, we have many successful installtions so I know the package isn't corrupt.
    Here is the installation log file

    I see a differen't product code getting removed on other machines and that's prob because they had a different version of flash installed.
    I was however able to install adobe flash versions 11.8 and below successfully, it's just versions 11.9 that fail.
    Any advice will be greately appreciated, thanks

    Hey the cleanup method didn't work.
    However, i could  get the latest flash installed without the package, for some reason it keeps failing with the package. Version 11.8 and  under installs with the package.
    I know the package works because we've used the same package for thousands of other machines and they've worked.

  • Can't install adobe flash player

    i am not a techie, so the previous threads dont help me much -- not basic enough, i guess.   anyway, i cant seem to install adobe flash player.   i often click on a website or something, and it wont run because it says i need adobe flash player (had it before -- dont know what happened to ti).   when i follow the steps to download flash player, my computer freezes up and IE shuts down.  whats up, and how might i go forward?   and thanks in advance for helping out a non-techie.

    Well, that should mean that nothing is running in realtime and should not interfere as McAfee would. I think this version of Ad-Aware was an On-Demand, you ran it when you wanted to, it didn't run automatically, is that correct?
    Was the HJT just on the Desktop?
    When you left click on Ad-Aware what happens? We can remove it, but it isn't causing a problem now so we'll do that later.
    Did you have any ad block? What about pop-up blocker software installed?
    In your Manage Add ons, the All add ons, can you pull out all ActiveX Controls(list them?) If not don't worry about it.
    When you first began having problems, did you try to Install an older version of Flash Player thinking that would work?
    Are there any other Anti-Virus/Spyware that you had installed before that wasn't Uninstalled that may still be running in realtime?
    I'm trying to determine what caused the ActiveX Control error.
    Do you know how to find the Flash folder? If not, I do. Just tell me.
    Thanks,
    eidnolb
         P.S. I just noticed your last post. I'll check on that Wise Uninstall. Someone had that and I forgot what it was for. Will have to find the thread, first I had ever heard of it. Thanks

  • I have a new mini ipad and need to install Adobe Flash Player on it in order to use certain items on the internet.  Can Adobe Flash Player be installed an used on my ipad??

    I have my first ipad.  It is the mini version.  I'm trying to go to certain sites on the internet that tell me I need to update or install Adobe Flash Player. When I try to down load Adobe Flash Player I get a message saying "this device does not support Adobe Flash Player".   Can I not use Adobe Flash Player on my ipad like I do on my computers and my iphone???

    You can't install flash player on your iPad, nor on your iPhone - it's not supported on iOS devices, and as Adobe have stopped 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. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

    Unable to install Adobe Flash Player iniMAC with OS X 10.7.2 Lion. Any suggestions?

    I have administrative prviledges.
    I obtained the latest version from the Adobe website.
    When I double click on the .dmg file I receive a message that I need to close open browsers which I do.
    Then I get a message stating that Adobe will be installed when I reopen browers.
    Finally when I check the Applications folder I find a file titled: Install Adobe Flash Player.
    This same application is shown in the dock.
    When I click in the file in either the Applications folder or the dock, the complete installation process starts again.
    Any suggestions?

  • Why Can't I install Adobe Flash Player? Please Help!

    I have Windows 7 and my laptop is fairly new.

  • Frequent Fails when installing Adobe Flash Player (Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1)

    Constantly see the following error message from Adobe Flash Player Installer:
    Error has been encountered. Close this window and try downloading again.
    What in heck does that error message mean?
    This message occurs most of the time when I try to update to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.
    It would be one thing if it was only occurring on Windows XP, but it shows up on Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1 frequently.
    Just for curiousity looked at the Windows 8.1 Event Viewer and NO error message shows up there.
    Would be nice to:
    (1) know what the error really is so that it can be reported to you to get it fixed once and for all.
    (2) have Adobe Flash Installer NOT to delete itself every time that the installer is run.
    (3) have an OFFLINE download installer to download and install Adobe Flash Player without the MacAfee installer.
    (4) have Adobe UNCHECK that the Install MacAfee installer that you have to opt out of each time you do an Adobe Flash Player download. You should make it to OPT IN not OPT OUT! Don't need another program installed without my permission. This causes issues when I have to uninstall MacAfee on computers that others in my family use.
    It seems to takes up to 20 times to download the Adobe installer over a period of many days or weeks to get it to install properly.
    I have written software for over 36 years as a computer programmer and now Senior Software Developer. I have do installers on my own and have to figure out how to solve my own issues on the installers to get them fixed.
    This issue doesn't seem to be tied to any particular version of Windows... Same issue occurs on Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1! The ONLY commonality seems to be Adobe Flash Player.
    Certainly Adobe should be smart enough to fix this issue once and for all.
    If the issue is that there is a network congestion error that it cannot download the installer, please say so and please please please DO NOT delete the downloaded installer every time that it is run on a PC.
    I'd like to fix the security issues with the Adobe Flash Player AS SOON as there is a patch for it. I don't like having security issues over a long period of time.
    Please address this issue so that I can put this to bed and not have to keep sending you messages that once again the Adobe Flash Player Installer is yet again broken!
    Certainly you have a staff at Adobe that CAN fix this problem quickly!

    more information about errors can be found in the FlashInstall.log file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash (and the SysWOW64 equivalent on 64-bit systems)
    the offline installers (below) do not delete themselves
    you can find the offline installers

    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    the offline installers are not bundled with any 3rd-party crapware

  • "Install Adobe Flash Player" is damaged and can't be opened

    The subject line of this discussion is what is displayed when I go to try to install Adobe Flash. I have a Mac OS X 10.9.3. I had Flash downloaded for a while, but the last update wouldn't update. It would download, but then when I went to open it it would say "Retrieving Install" and the meter would remain at 0%. It never went a step beyond that. After trying many times, per the instructions of the website, I deleted Flash from my computer using the Adobe uninstaller downloaded from this site. Now that I am trying to reinstall Flash I keep getting the message "'Install Adobe Flash Player' is damaged and can't be opened. You should eject the disk image". What should I do from here? I would appreciate any help!

    You should make sure you do a complete uninstall of the flash player first and then install the latest FP14 version from this link - Use http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_osx.dm g
