  • Flash Player Download error

    I have an Acer Windows 7 Home Premium laptop, and have tried to download the latest version of Flash Player. When trying to download from Adobe site I get following error.
    Internal Error
    WSAStartup failed (No Error)
    (.\socket.c/2946)
    This error appears after I click run. I hope someone can help, also get same error when trying to install Reader as well.

    Download the installers from
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Cant download Adobe flash player (download error 228)

    when i try to download flash player and after i click Allow a message appears that says:
    cant download because error 228
    i read the posted threads about this problem but non of the solutions worked
    flash player is working well on IE 8
    i'm using windows 7
    firefox 3.6.3
    i tried to disable all the addons i have and to turn off firewall
    but it didn't work
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

    That -228 error message is for the Get AdobePlus extension that isn't even needed and has been the cause of problems for some users.
    1. You need to use Firefox at the Adobe website to get the NPAPI version of Flash for non-IE browsers.
    Download the Flash plugin from the Adobe [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/thankyou/ Thank You!] page via:
    '''If it does not start, [http://www.adobe.com/go/fptroubleshoot click here] for troubleshooting information.'''
    On the [http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/support/index.html troubleshooting page] click the link at the bottom:
    If you are still having problems, [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe click here to download].
    Save it to your Desktop.
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed,
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

  • Flash & Reader download error.

    Well, the problem is whenever I have tried to download the Adobe flash or reader program through online I get some 1mb file downloaded first and then I need to click run and after that the rest of the file has to get downloaded once the installer app pops up. But nowadays the app pops up but it shows blank. I am able to download & install the standalone version of both flash and reader. But when it comes to the automatic update it does not happen.

    I downloaded the Microsoft Autoruns package and ran it.  There are no programs in the LSA Providers tab, and Apple's Bonjour is the only program in the Winsock Providers tab.  I also did the "netsh winsock reset" and rebooted.  It didn't fix the problem.  Any more ideas?

    You download the installer (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and save it to disk, then close all Internet Explorer windows and run the downloaded installer.

  • Download error after mountain lion upload

    HI After I upgraded to 10.8 mountain lion I have since struggled to download firefox and adobe flash (get the error image file corrupted). Also I can't download in itunes (get error 50 or 8000).
    I have tried:
    reboot
    software update
    Recovery boot and re download of mountain lion but at this point it said 98 hrs for the download to take place and just stopped downloading.
    Does anyone have any ideas or does it need a reinstall from time machine. Idon't really want to do this as I've got photos etc that are from the last two weeks on there.
    Many thanks
    I enclose a screenshot of the error
    I'm running an 2.8 imac intel i5
    and obviously 10.8
    Many thanks for your help!!!

    1. Do a backup
    2. Open App Store > Purchases, download Mountain Lion and install it under Mountain Lion

  • Download error "source file could not be read" when closing tab.

    So it seems like when I start a download by clicking a link on a website and I close that tab before the download finishes I get a download error and the file stops downloading.
    I first noticed this on some site and thought it was a problem with the site, but then it happened again when I went to download the Flash update.
    [http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/3015/screenshot20110605at235.png Screenshot of the error message]
    When I run Firefox with add-ons disabled (thanks for the handy menu item) the problem does not occur.

    Whats the problem with this thing?
    One thing i can tell is that i changed some settings in Micromedia Flash, because i learned that they where spying on US, then boom no more download. It stops and tell me it could not be read from the server. Dont remember if it started right after i changed the settings, but its driving me nuts

  • Download Error with iTunes 10.2.1 "source file could not be read"

    I recently had to restore my iPod due to some issues I was having. After it was done wiping the iPod, a message on my computer told me that after my computer restarted (automatically), I needed to keep my ipod connected so it could re-sync with my backup file. When it restarted, I waited awhile for my ipod to show up in itunes, but unfortunately it never did. I then went to the support page for this, which I have had to do in the past, and I learned that I had to completely reinstall itunes. This is the second time in the past month I have had to do this. I deleted all of the necessary files mentioned on the support page and then restarted my computer. I then went to the itunes download page and clicked download iTunes 10.2.1, the latest version, which is the same version I had before I uninstalled it.
    _*THE ERROR:*_
    About 30 seconds into the download, I get an error message that reads:
    "Download Error
    /Users/Berry/Downloads/iTunes10.2.1.dmg could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"
    This did not happen last time I had to do this re-installation process.
    Thanks in advance for any help and sorry for the long post.

  • Update and Patch download errors (CC 2014)

    Hi all, this was initially meant to be a customer support chat, but it seems to be unavailable currently, so I'll ask on here instead.
    The issue is happening on Creative Cloud (1.7.1.418)
    I am running Mac OSX Mavericks (version 10.9.4), early 2011 model, 2GHz Intel Core i7 Processor, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory
    The Creative Cloud app is showing 6 updates. The updates are as follows...
    Premier Pro CC (2014) : Adobe Premier Pro CC 2014.0.1 Update
    Photoshop CC (2014) : Photoshop Camera Raw 8.5 (CC)
    InDesign CC (2014) : DPS Desktop Tools CC2014 31.0.1 Update
    Flash Professional CC and Mobile Device Packaging (2014) : Flash Professional CC Update - July 2014, as well as Photoshop Camera Raw 8.5(CC)
    Media Encoder CC (2014) : Adobe Media Encoder CC (2014.0.1)
    After Effects CC (2014) : Photoshop Camera Raw 8.5(CC)
    When I click the update button on any of these updates, I almost instantly receive an 'Update Failed' message.
    Upon clicking the 'Learn More' option, it reads 'Update Failed - Download Error. Press Retry to try again or contact customer support.(49).
    When Retrying, the same happens every time.
    It also affects newly installed apps. This morning when installing Bridge CC, the app itself downloaded fine, but an error message saying 'Instillation Succeeded, but a patch failed - Download Error. Press Retry to try again or contact customer support.(49).' appeared.
    It has been doing this for a fair few months now, having hoped upgrading from the CC apps to the new CC 2014 apps would fix it.. These updates themselves are also quite sporadic in their appearance. When I shut down my Mac and restart it, the updates often disappear, with an 'all apps are up to date' message in their place. They only then reappear when downloading a new app, or a more up-to-date update becomes available.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps multiple times, but nothing changes. In the past, I have tried manually downloading and installing the updates and patches through the website, though that too gave me an error message. I have switched off my firewall on occasion, as well as allowed all Adobe apps to be allowed through, though this does not seem to have any effect. I have tried it in multiple locations, being connected to multiple routers, so I do not believe it is a router issue. I am a student, so not connected to any companies that may be blocking access. I have also had a brief look at install logs in the past, though I am not particularly tech savvy when It comes to that sort of thing. I have also seen people recommend trying to update in root user mode, though I am not particularly comfortable with that, as I have been told It's not a good idea to mess about as a root user when you don't really know what you're doing
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Cheers

  • Download error for Photoshop Elements 11

    I am trying to download Photoshop Elements 11 and keep getting an error that my browser is "out of date/IE4 or earlier" but I currently have Internet Explorer 10 on my computer.  Why have I gotten this error about 10 times.  I have also downloaded the most current Adobe Reader and Flash Player which has not made a difference.
