Flash player installation problem on MAC

I have repeatedly tried to download and install Flash player v14 for my MacBook Pro and it constantly hangs at the "Retrieving Install" screen never moving past 0%. Then it times out and says the install has failed. I have also completely wiped old versions of Flash from my system (now NO Flash-enabled sites will work at all--even more frustrating).
Any clues to remedy? Thanks.

The new Adobe Flash 14 installer does not work when you have an automatic proxy set. I've installed many versions of Flash on Mac without problems, but the new v.14 installer would never even start the download. (Of course the installer dmg would download, but when I ran the installer app, the download of Flash would not start, seemingly hanging at "Retrieving Installation"). I tried the uninstaller, which worked great. Then I tried installing v.13, which also worked fine. But I only got v.14 to install after I ... went to System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Proxies and de-selected Automatic Proxy Configuration. Be sure to make a note of your Automatic Proxy URL, because after installing Flash and going back to the network Preference, I saw that the Automatic Proxy Configuration field was blank. But when I re-entered my APC URL, and clicked to select APC, all was well and I had flash installed while still able to browse external web sites when behind my companies firewall.

Flash CS3 install problem

I have had the creative suite 3 for a while but prior to that I installed a demo of flash CS3. I have never really needed flash up until now so though I would install it properly from my install disc but it won't let me.
It keeps saying flash 3 and flash video encoder already installed, probably because of the demo which lapsed yonks ago. I have tried inputting the serial number from the back of the dvd case but it won't recognise it and can't get past the trial expired window. All my other cs3 apps that I use are fine. I have tried the adobe uninstaller in utilities but it keeps giving an error, I have also deactivated as well but still no luck.
Is there a particular file I can delete to reset the trial thingy to then input my serial number again or how can I delete everything flash and start again from the installer?
It's driving me mad, at this rate I'll have to look at alternative apps.

Hi, thanks for the reply, wasn't quite as simple as that as I did try this numerous times.
The reason behind it is in fact an error that adobe introduced when beta testing and releasing the trial versions, apparantly CS3 is notourious for these errors.
The only way round it is to download CS3 clean from the downloads section and run it in terminal. Following the instructions it does an entire cleanup and deletion of any CS3 software allowing for a clean install afterwards.
Worked like a charm.
Thanks any way.

Flash CS3 Install Problems!

Hello all,
I recently downloaded Flash CS3 Trial from the Adobe website.
Once downloaded I extract the files from the EXE file. Then I go
into the extracted files and select setup.exe. I give the program
permission to run in Vista (as prompted) and the Flash Setup window
displays...
The problem is the Setup window displays for a brief second
or two before dissapearing without a trace!! No error message etc.
It just dissapears...
I am running Windows Vista. Why is this happening? It is most
annoying!! I cant even install the product!!
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me!! :-)

Funny enough, I got the same error when I tried to download
and install the
trial version. Best advice I can give is to contact support.

Flash CS3, Having Problems Creating Button Animation

I am relatively new to Flash CS3, and don't use action script... I am creating an animation with sound using the button graphic option so it is a clickable button. I have the animation finished, and the sound embeded, and everything is working great, except when I publish it, I have to click and hold over the graphic for the animation to happen... If I click and release, the animation and sound clips stop... What am I doing wrong and how on Earth can I fix it??? Thank you in advance for any suggestions!!

Yup, that is how it works. You can't control which state a button is in. So when you click on it, it will go to the down state and when you let go it will go back to over (or up if you release outside).
Not sure exactly what the "fix" is. It depends upon what you are trying to do. Generally you would need to use MovieClips instead of buttons with event handlers to tell you "button" what to do. Very few people I know actually use buttons.

Adobe CS3 installation problem in Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

I cannot install Adobe CS3 Production Premium in Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (fresh clean install). I have tried everything, including turning off the anti-virus software. It just pops up asking if I want to allow the installer to make changes to Windows, etc and when I click yes it just closes and does nothing... Has anyone been able to get CS3 installed in Windows 7?
The only reason I have a fresh install is because my Ultra CS3 that I had loaded in addition to CS4 package timed out after 30 days and I really need to get access to Ultra CS3 to finish this project. I was planning installing just one app (maybe Photoshop CS3) from the CS3 install so that I can enter my CS3 Production Premium reg info in the system so tat Ultra CS3 will work. I can just start over and do another 30 days with the Ultra in DEMO mode (it does not tell you it's running in demo mode by the way!) and finish this project, but I was looking for a more permanent solution. Once I put CS4 back on, the CS3 package installed over it...
Does anyone knw what to do in this situation? i.e. Could I install it into a Windows XP Pro 32-bit edition and perform and UPGRADE to Windows 7?
Has anyone else ran into this inability to install CS3 in Windows 7? I am running the CS3 install from the Adobe folder on the desktop that it maes when you run the files downloaded from Adobe.com - I get nothing. The task manager shows something open for a split second and then closes right away?! This is very frustrating. I have even run the CS3 clean script just in case. Any help would be appreciated!

i had issues installing cs4 products, my reponse to others with cs4 issues may help you:
i see 216 others have posted questions on this issue on this forum from searching "setup.exe", including myself, so i'm just responding to the recent ones.
i recently downloaded trails of flash cs4 and web premium package cs4 (took a day to download at high speed starbuck's internet). couldnt get the setup.exe to work or the uninstaller to work. surfing tech support over next couple weeks to try various agents was useless and expensive until i finally reached someone with useful info. all the agents had foriegn accents and read from scripts and web support pages until yesterday, when i reached a guy who told me two things i'll report to various forums addressing this same issue:
1. download the "windows install clean up" program from window's website (google: windows install cleanup) to uninstall everything adobe. then go through your folders to erase any adobe remnants. this program is different from the uninstaller that doesnt work in the programs and features area of the control panel when you try to uninstall adobe products from there.
2. windows explorer 8, the newest version, DOES NOT download adobe software properly and leaves things out, causing all sorts of issues including the setup.exe program not working. download firefox browser from mozella (google: firefox) and use it for all adobe downloads. apparently the old windows explorer 7 will work, but if you already have explorer 8 installed its easiest to just use firefox.
i'm spending the next couple days downloading the 4.14 G web premium trail with firefox and will report if this works.

Flash Player installation problems with Windows Embedded (WES/XPe)

I've deployed 13 HP T5740 Thin Clients at my office, each have Windows Embedded Standard (WES/XPe) and with Internet Explorer 7.
With limitations on VMWare servers and sound, users need to view webinars on their local client. When I try to install any version of Adobe Flash Player, the installation instantly fails...no reason given.
Is there a known issue with this? And is there a workaround?
Thanks,
Jeff

It's not working at the mo and it says under run without permissions - Shockwave Flash Object Enabled version 0.0.0.1
Just tried to download version 10.2.153.1 and now the download manager opens but then just 'hangs' - nothing happens.
On Firefox, version 10.2.153.1 installed and enabled OK. No problem playing clips with Firefox.

CS3 installation problem

Hi, I am an engineer of bangladesh television. We are using HP xw8400 with CS3 production premium and matrox axio le. because of Operating system problem, I have recovered OS (XP-sp2) from Recovery drive. I am trying to install a fresh copy of CS3 production premium. At the begining of installation i put the serial key for installation. After installing when i launch adobe premiere CS3 then activation process begins. in the activation wizerd my serial key is showed well and I click next to activate over internet. another window opens, where ask me to select the product from a list which we own and put serial again. In the list Adobe premiere CS3, after effect cs3 etc are listed but CS3 production premium is not listed. When I put my serial key again here then it is not matched with the product. How can I solve this problem and activate this???? please help.

Is sounds like you may be installing a CS3 upgrade version, and this will require you to enter the serial number for a qualifying product that you would be upgrading from, for instance Production Premium CS2 perhaps. You will need the serial number from your previous version.
Thank you

Dreamweaver CS3 Installation Problems

Hello,
I have just got Dreamweaver CS3 and Photoshop CS3 and have
had some real issues with installing them! Here is my situation
explained.
I first installed Dreamweaver CS3 after un-installing a
previous version of Dreamweaver (the one from Macromedia) and it
installed as normal. I then tried to install Photoshop but it only
got as far as 8.46% and would go no further! I did a system restore
and tried installing Photoshop before Dreamweaver and it installed!
I then tried to install Dreamweaver but once the "Adobe Setup" got
to 100% it disappeared and the Installation screen did not appear,
in fact nothing happened! I went in an endless loop of installing
one before the other and have landed and having Photoshop on the
computer and not been able to install Dreamweaver! As I mentioned,
if I don't have Photoshop installed, Dreamweaver will install and
vice-versa.
I'm thinking it is a conflict problem, but I dunno where to
begin looking. I've cleared the computer of useless files and
registry entries (I use a program called CCleaner) and I also went
into
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe and did a search for
'dreamweaver' and deleted everything that came up, just so it'd be
like Dreamweaver was never installed.
I used the CS3 Cleaner because I previously had the PS BETA
but it never worked right and it kept failing when deleting stuff,
so I dunno why that was.
If anyone knows any reason why this is doing it and have any
ways of helping me out, I would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
P.S. I am on Windows Vista Home Premium

You may experiencing the same problem that I had. If you had
a previous Beta installation installed, it may be preventing the
new installation.

Flash Player installation problems in Firefox

I am having problems with the new download manager. I get an error message saying the installation is corrupted and I have removed it from Fox add-ons three times. I have uninstalled everything Adobe but my Reader and everything is shut down (all other applications).
So I cannot install the flash player.
FireFox updated itself today and said that Adobe should also be up-dated.
I have no player now.
This is as bad as Microsoft Net Framework I had to remove 2 weeks ago.
Please help.

I don't see any Flash content on that page you linked.

Solution for PS CS3 installation problem on Vista does not work.

I encountered the much discussed 2739 error when trying to install PS CS3 on Vista Ultimate. I followed the proposed solution. But instead of a dialog box I received the message: not recognized. I have the latest update of Java installed and I have IE as my default browser.
What now? Return CS3?

I did and got a friendly guy who apparently had never heard of the 2739 error. I was hoping to get some support here. In another thread I read something about holding the installation window until installation starts. I can try it, but I doubt I am quick enough before the error window opens.

Photoshop CS3 Installation Problems

A customer has purchased Photoshop CS3 & is having problems installing on Vista Business
If I logon to the Users PC as Administrator & install it there, what steps will I need to take to access it from the Users account
Thanks

Well, who told you it was for a Mac? If you bought it at a retail store, you should be able to take it back there and exchange it for a Mac copy. If you bought it used, you should demand a refund from whoever you bought it from.
Of course, that is all assuming it's actually a Windows copy, and there's not something else going on... What does it say on the CD? My Photoshop Elements CD is very clearly labeled "Macintosh."

Adobe InDesign CS3 Installation Problem...Over One Year and Counting

Well, it's been over a year since I purchased the Pagemaker to InDesign upgrade. I've tried at lease 15 times to load the software with the same "shared components failed to install" errors.
I've tried the Web for answers, the Clean-up utility and even called the tech support line. The answer (after waiting at least an hour on the phone) was to back up all of my files (on my time, not theirs) and run the scrub utility with the "undocumented" option 4...but watch out...
As a user of Pagemaker for nearly 15 years, I can't believe that Adobe (formerly Aldus) would release a product that cannot be used. I spent a bit over $200 for the upgrade...they got my money...I got a DVD of software that cannot be installed successfully.
As a customer for over 3 versions of the Pagemaker software, I find it a bit odd that I would have to spend hours on my computer trying to get Adobe software to install properly.
Is it just me, or have others given up on this?

And so what happened? I think Adobe is the first place you should go
with installation issues, and you should (and they should too) persist
until you get past the problem.
Tech support is a PITA. They make you do things you don't want to do
(like back up all your files on your own time); they make you jump
through silly hoops and crawl under the desk pulling parts out of your
computer; but they also have an obligation to get it working on your
computer, whatever it takes.
Call them back. Get a number. Keep track of who you talk to. Ask them to
bump you up to the next level. Keep trying.

CS3 Installation Problem, please help!

Hi there ive been trying to install Photoshop CS3 and having great difficulty, it will only install the shared components and nothing else, Ive gone through all the tutorials on the Adobe help pages and still not had any luck, I've tried looking through the log and the only thing I could come across is the following:
[ 5028] Sat Apr 11 00:41:19 2009 ERROR
Default installation language not valid, falling back to first supported language.
[ 5028] Sat Apr 11 00:41:19 2009 DEBUG
couldn't find any info on the error code or anything, ive uploaded my installation log here:
http://www.2shared.com/file/5313464/86af2f33/Adobe_Photoshop_CS3_10.html
please help! I am using windows Vista but not sure if its 32 or 64

just tried that and still does not want to work, really just does not want to install for some reason!
I did try this and it wouldnt let me allow inhertible permissions to the admin on Solution 11 of this: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401401 this part here:
Select both "Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object" and "Reset permissions on all child objects and enable propagation of inheritable permissions," on the Permissions tab.
Click OK in the "Advanced Security Settings" dialog box. Windows will now reset the permissions for each child object to correspond with its parent.
If you can't change permissions or rename that key, then contact Microsoft or your hardware vendor for assistance.
not sure if that has something to do with it?
appart from that i'm completly out of ideas, very frustrating as i have been trying for days to get this to install! any more suggestions are welcome

Mac OSX 10.8 Flash Player Installer Problem-

Each time I try to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Air (2 different laptops!) I can go through the routine well. I notice that after 57% installed it suddenly jumps to 100%, then I click the box 'Fertigstellen', and then I am back at the Adobe Installer Box, and I cannot find the Adobe Flash Player anywhere in my computer. I have gone through De-Installation of old version, and made a re-start. As this happens on both laptops with Mac OS X 10.8. I assum there is a fundmental flaw in the Installer.
