Fix for Flash Player in Internet Explorer Issue

I've seen quite a few people with this issue and they all
seem to have issues finding the fix...I never found a 100% solution
on Adobe's site, but I found some directions that finally worked.
Basically, if Flash Player refuses to work in Internet
Explorer for you (but works in other browsers if you've tried) then
follow the steps available at
Fix
Flash Player in Internet Explorer .
It's basically a mashup of various directions available on
Adobe & Microsoft's websites with links to all the files that
you will need to download. Hopefully Adobe can use the list to
create a fix that works.

Hopefully this FAQ will help:

Unable to download flash Player via internet explorer

Hi,
I am trying to download adobe flash player via internet explorer. Everytime I try to download,the web page does not respond anymore.
I closed my anti-virus, my internet explorer runs on 128-bit.
I really need to download this via explorer because my HP printer (vivera with scanner) is not going to work if the coreect version is not downloaded via explorer.
Would appreciate your help.
Thank yuo.

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums,
Download these Flash Player installers :
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_playe r_10_active_x.exe
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Save both of them on your Hard Disk and install them. (In Any Sequence)
Note : Make sure no programs are running while installing them (Like IE or Messenger)
Hope it helps !!
Thanks
Vikram

Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer

If you’re having problems viewing Flash content on the Web using Internet Explorer 9 or higher, even though you’re sure Flash Player is installed, it may be because the Flash Player Add-on has been disabled (turned off) in your browser settings.
To enable Flash Player, please follow the steps outlined below:
Please click here for an HTML5 version of this video: YouTube HTML5 HD Link
Launch Internet Explorer and navigate to http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
If you see an animation playing, then Flash Player is enabled.
If you don’t see an animation playing, then Flash Player is not enabled. In that case, click on the Tools icon in the top right corner of Internet Explorer. (The icon looks like a cogwheel.)
In the drop-down menu which appears, click Manage Add-Ons.
In the dialog which appears, select Toolbars and Extensions.
In the list of Add-ons, look for “Shockwave Flash Object” – which is another name for Flash Player.
In the Status column, check to see whether Shockwave Flash Object is Disabled. If it is, click the row for Shockwave Flash Object to highlight it.
In the bottom right corner of the Manage Add-ons dialog, click the Enable button.
Close the Manage Add-ons dialog.
Click Refresh to reload the webpage. If you see the animation playing this time, then Flash Player has been successfully enabled.
If you continue to encounter problems viewing Flash content after completing these steps, please see our FAQ on ActiveX filtering.

Me too. Thanks a million, Chris. Without you, I would go crazy pulling my hair off.
I tried everything I possible could, you name it, I did it, but I was kept advised to download
and install the latest flash version. The next step I would try to uninstall IE9 and re-install IE8,
because I did not have such an issue when I was using IE8. If this fails, I would even try to
buy a new computer. Finally, I came across this forum and find your answer.
I follow your instructions, and finally I DID IT. I can see all videos now.
Many many thanks to you Chris. You save me a lot of work and money.

Flash Player and Internet Explorer

I continual get a message that I cannot view something because I need the latest flash player. I download and upgrade the flash player and it happens again the next day. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong. It has something to do with IE. I can view the items under Chrome.

Chrome has its own Flash Player plugin and it functions independently of IE or any IE plugins.

No - webview will not support a flash player plugin.
install flash plugin for WebView "Thread: install flash plugin for WebView"
Richard's comment from the thread (Richard is the JavaFX lead):
As for plugins, we are not likely to ever support running plugins (except maybe applets), for security reasons. There are also additional issues. If the browser is to support arbitrary things that Chrome supports like native client etc, it adds to the footprint of the browser (and security risks). Already the WebView constitutes over half of the download size of JavaFX. I would need a pretty strong justification to make it larger if doing so also increases our risk to vulnerabilities.

Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 11 (Windows 8.1)

Hello
I am having a problem with Flash in IE 11 / Win 8.1. I understand it is embedded. But I keep getting the window at the bottom of the screen saying this webpage wants to run the following add-on 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component....' I click allow and the message keeps coming back. On top of this, Flash will not work.
I have a feeling there is something corrupted. I have tried to download an update (kb3004150) and it says I already have this on my system. I also have tried to install it manually using the install_flash_player_ax.exe file, but to no avail.
What do I need to do to fix this and why aren't there other options on Adobe's site?
Thank you!!!

Adjusting the ActiveX Filtering settings should help you resolve those "Do you want to allow Flash Player" prompts:
Use ActiveX filtering - Windows Help
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Recent Windows Update make Flash player freeze Internet Explorer

Hello guys,
I've run an Windows Update of a Windows 2008R2 Terminal server last night and these updates cause Internet Explorer freeze on every website which contains flash animation.
If I disable FLash module, the problem disappers (but no more flash animation ).
As Flash 11.4 was previously installed, I've try to replace it with a newer version of flash 11.5, but this don't solved my issue.
Do you know how can I solve my issue ?
Can I provide you some debug log to help you ? (And how can I get these debug log ?)
Please found a list of all the update which have been done last night. Hope this will help you.
Software used :
- Windows 2008R2 Terminal Server
- Internet Explorer 9
- Flash player 11.4 (try 11.5 but trouble still there)
Best regards,
Gregory

Fix for Flash player in Mountain lion/Safari 6.0

Hi, i was having problems with flash player but found a fix, it takes a while but it worked for me. First install the latest flash player. now mount the flash player installer, go to flash player installer and right click, then "open package contents", then go to contents, resources and right click adobe flash player.pkg, right click and show package contents. then go to contents, and extract archive.pax.gz. A folder named library should appear in your downloads. Copy everything in application support folder to the applicaton support folder in your computers library. Do the same for Internet plugins folder and preferences panes. Lastly, copy com.adobe.fpsaud.plist to the preferences folder in you computers library, and voila, flash player will work in mountain lion.
i hope this solves it for everybody else!

I, actually read another thread that suggested resetting Safari so I tried this and it has been functioning normally since that time. Thanks for the help though.

Problems with flash player through internet explorer on MacBook

Here is the problem:
I downloaded internet explorer for mac to use it in some websites that requires this browsers. when I opened the site a pop-up message came out saying that I need flash player plug in so I went to that website of adobe that was suggested using internet explorer but it freezed. so I went to the adobe website and I used Safari this time and I downloaded the flash player installer . I installed it & it was successfull . I went back to use the internet explorer to the earlier website that requires internet explorer and I got the same plug-in required window. I'm new to mac I don't know what to do. help me please.
I have got MacBook Mac OSX 10.6.4

IE for Mac hasn't been supported by microsoft for 7 years. I'm surprised that it works at all. There's probably a conflict between the flash and the browser.
A better way to run IE may be installing windows via crossover, boot camp or vm on your MacBook.

Installing flash player(error internet explorer)

When I try to install flash player is gives me an error message that I need to get
out of internet explorer. what does that mean?

It means that you need to close all Internet Explorer windows.
If you still get that message after closing IE, check with the Task Manager (Processes tab) if iexplore.exe is still running in the background.
P.S. you must also close any Messenger applications that are running.

Reinstalling flash player on Internet Explorer 10 (in Windows 8)?

I'm not sure what caused it, but for the last several months, the flash player just hasn't been working. After looking around and following all the steps (add-on already enabled, active X filtering already not on, already have lastest versions of Flash Player and Explorer 10 and video driver and windows updates), I decided to just uninstall Flash Player and then reinstall it, but now I'm at a dead end since the download/install pages keep telling me it's already pre-installed in Windows 8 apparenlty oblivious to the possibility of it having been post-uninstalled.

You cannot uninstall the ActiveX plug-in for IE in Windows 8 without manually removing a specific Windows Update KB Patch, and two individual registry keys. THAT'S why it still says it's installed... because it is. If you removed anything, it was the Standard Flash Player Plug-in that Firefox, Opera or Safri would use if you have any of them installed.
You probably need to repair IE: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378
