Flash 10 hangs Internet Explorer 7 on Vista?

I installed Flash 10 on my dad's computer last Saturday. He
emailed me today to tell me that Internet Explorer 7 had been a few
times over the past few days which he things started around
Tuesday. Since the only change to IE7 made recently was upgrading
from Flash 9 to Flash 10, Flash 10 is my suspect.
Are there any reports of Flash 10 causing IE7 to hang in
Vista?

Hi Mush25-
I had to step back from this and take a different approach.
While tossin' down some aspirins, I worked on my other niece's
laptop to upgrade to FP10 and troubleshoot. Identical to T2, but
with more Yahoo stuff: homepage, toolbar, chat, etc.. Turns out she
had already done it via Adobe yes/no prompt. No issues, everything
works OK. She said it only took a few minutes. I checked it out and
checked the settings, it's OK. Go figure.....
So, I will approach this as a problem with Manual
Downloading, which you and I did (not sure about Morac).
The HP desktop? We don't normally use IE7 on it, as it is AOL
Dial-up only, so few/no cookie issues on IE7. I kicked in IE7 and
FP10 worked OK. Well, as OK as dial-up video can be....
OK- a question for ya, this will tell me if I'm on the right
track: On your first FP10 upgrade, did you FIRST uninstall FP9, or
download/install OVER FP9? Please answer honestly....no judgements
here...
I didn't uninstall first- I admit it! I never do for Adobe
and Java, as I want to make sure the new version/upgrade works OK
before losing the old. I was on the old dial-up for too long, I
guess. There are exceptions, of course, like AVG.
Let me know.

Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning

Solution center suddenly ask for enabling Adobe Flash player for internet explorer for scanning. However, flash player is installed and enabled, but HP Solution center keeps asking for enabling and doesn't let me scan.
Any suggestion?

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @yuvalyanai
I read about the issue you are having with scanning, as you are seeing a message to enable Adobe Flash player.
To begin, I would like to know some more information:
Which operating system you are running and which printer you are working with?
How Do I Find My Model Number?
Which Windows Operating System am I running?
Can you make copies successfully?
Can you print from your computer?
Have you tried updated Adobe Flash player?
Can you scan successfully from Microsoft Paint?
How is your printer connected to your PC, wireless, ethernet or USB?
In the meantime, try resetting the printer:
Press the Power button to turn on the product.
With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Wait at least 15 seconds.
Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
I hope to hear from you, have a wonderful weekend

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:

Flash Player for Internet Explorer has to be reinstalled

Every time I'm booting my computer, Flash Player for Internet Explorer has to be installed. I'm using Win7, 64 bits. Without reinstalling, Real Player will not play offline. However, when accessing YouTube with IE, it plays the video without reinstalling. Computers are fun!

You need to close all iexplore.exe processes; use the Task Manager's Processes tab.

Is FLASH part of Internet Explorer?

I am trying to persuade our IT department to allow Flash to
be used on our internal network system and I am being told that
FLASH is not installed on over 50% or our desktop PC's and that it
too big a job to update them. Am I correct in saying that FLASH has
been a part of I.E. browser for quite some time? If this is true my
argument is going to be that the I.E. installed on those PC's have
to be a very old version installed and therfore should be up-dated
due to security reasons.
Can anyone help me with this argument?

Flash is NOT part of Internet Explorer.
However, Flash Player version 6 shipped with Windows XP:

Vista:

Flash Video in Internet Explorer stutters

I have noticed that .MOV video converted to FLV plays fine in Safari/Firefox in Leopard and Windows Vista/7. But when I test in Internet Explorer, in this case IE8 on a PC it noticeably stutters. Does anyone know anything about this? Seems very odd.
I hate the idea of using WMV files, not to mention making them in FCP seems to require Flip4Mac's most expensive package.

But when I test in Internet Explorer, in this case IE8 on a PC it noticeably stutters.< </div>
That's a setting in the player on the PC or within EI.
A file is a file.
If it plays well on one machine and doesn't play on another, the only thing that has changed is the machine or the player on the machine. Flash is generally the lowest common denominator but there are many Flash players for the PC.

Flash, Javascript and Internet Explorer

This is driving me nuts...!!!!!! It works in Firefox but not
Internet
Explorer.
I've got a load of gifs on a page that I want to swap from a
Flash movie
using a loop.
This is the Javascript I'm using:
function blankAll(x){
document[x].src="images/splash-link-arrow.gif";
And I'm calling it in Flash using the following action
script:
function blankOut(){
for(x = 1; x <= _root.allBranches.length; x++){
getURL("javascript:blankAll('"+ _root.allBranches[x-1]
+"')");
allBranches being an array containing a list of the gif names
to swap.
Like I say, in Firefox this works like a dream, but in
Internet Explorer it
only swaps the very last gif on the list........ WHY?
Can anybody help please?
Big thanks in advance,
@ndyB

Sorry Dan,
This has got nothing to do with the question I asked.
I know about the Microsoft "patch" and have already allowed
for it.

Flash 8 and Internet Explorer

I am creating a website for work and I noticed that in
Internet explorer it doesn't display my text in my flash file. It
does however display images. Does anyone know why this is happening
and how I can fix it?

A common cause of this is that you published your swf for
Flash Player 8
but that an older Flash Player is installed, like version 7.
FP7 will
play many Flash 8 swfs, but the text rendering is different,
so the text
won't show up.
Check this page to see what version of Flash Player is
installed:

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.

Adobe Reader XI hangs Internet Explorer!

We support several clients and as each PC upgrades to Adobe Reader XI it breaks the IE Add-On (view in browser) capability.
The pdf starts to download, pops up in the browser, and then in about 5-10 seconds hangs until it times out (45 minutes later).
IE then throws up the error "A network error occurred while accessing this document on the Internet. Would you like to close the document or reload it?"
If the user downloads the pdf it works; if the user uses Chrome or FF it works! Have tried disabling the "Fast View". It just then allows me to see when it stops downloading.
I have tried Windows XP, Win7 & Win8 and different versions of IE and they all fail!
I am seeing this across all my clients!
Sometimes, if I disable the Add-on it will then download and open it in Adobe Reader but sometimes (haven't figured out the exact combination but IE9 & Win 7 fails) even though it's disabled, it still opens it in the browser and hangs.
I created a GPO that disables the Add-n but it continues to try to open it in the IE browser.
Help!

We've been testing this some more, and we've discovered our problem. We have a Xerox global print driver installed on our computers that runs our printer.
If we take a file created in the Microsoft Suite, whether Word or Excel, and print to PDF through the print driver, and then upload that file to a website and provide a link in a page for people to click, the PDF throws an error in Internet Explorer, giving the error listed above, and fails to open. The PDF opens fine locally through Internet Explorer, and you can view the file through the "View" option in Gmail. You can also view that file in Firefox and Chrome with no problem. And the file downloads just fine.
If we take the same file and use the "Save As" option in the Microsoft program to save the file as a PDF and upload that to a website, the file opens just fine in Internet Explorer, as well we everywhere else.
The print driver is doing something in the PDF-making process that bothers Internet Explorer.
