Flash install problem

Hi there, trying to reinstall flash, and when i do the usual install pattern it asks me what program i want to use to open the file and gives me a list of unhelpful programs.. have never experienced this before..... i have read the rest of the forums posts but havn't seen this yet.. anyway im sure im using the right website for the downloads, and have tried on both firefox and internet explorer... it seems as if windows intaller isn't picking up the prompt... any help would be appreciated..

There is no download of a file called '1' that I know of. The correct FP installer downloads are
for Internet Explorer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe (save it to disk);
for all other browsers http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe (save it to disk).
To install, close all browser windows, the run the appropriate installer(s).

Adobe Flash Install Problem

After numerous Flash crashes I tried to uninstall/reinstall newest Flash Player with Mozilla Firefox ~ unsuccessfully. Next I tried to complete a "clean install" of the newest Adobe Flash Player using Internet Explorer on my Windows XP. Uninstall & delete files seems to have worked but, I save the install download to my desktop, choose run program and the run program dialogue box disappears then the install program icon disappears from my desktop and there seems to be no evidence of any Flash Player download at all anywhere in my system that I can find. Despite redoing these steps, the results remain the same. What is happening and what can I do to be able to successfully download Flash Player again? Add ons + security features are not set to prevent this as far as I can tell. I had the latest version with occasional crash problems prior to this attempt to correct that, but now I have nothing. Help!

If you are trying to install Flash Player on Mozilla Firefox, you need to download Flash Player using Firefox. I think you downloaded Flash Player using Internet Explorer. I am not clear on why the downloaded Flash Player file disppears from your machine.
Could you please download Flash Player from the following link: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header
(the second link)
Close all browsers and double-click the file you downloaded.

Flash install problems on Win7 64bit install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1.exe

Flash Version: Adobe Flash Player 10.3.183.7 (2,94 MB)
Windows: Win 7 - 64 Bit SP1, German
Hi,
My system hdd crashed last week (yes, I have a data backup) and last weekend I'm started to reinstall everything.
At the point, I started to install flash player or acrobat reader, I came to an problem.
I download the installer "install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih.exe" and put it on the desktop. Right click, start as admin and the exe disappeares. (I'm member of the admin group, system is not member of an Active Directory)
I checked process list an I found the process which flips:
started with: install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih.exe
this started install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1.exe which started
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1.exe and this started
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1_1.exe
After the new process started, the older process kills automatically. Only two adobe jobs are in the process list all the time.
In the temp folder, I found
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih.exe
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1.exe
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1.exe
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1_1.exe
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1_1_1.exe
install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1 _1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1_1.exe
and lot of more.....
I restarted my system several time, disabled AVG antivirus, installed lates Microsoft patches and I tried to unpack the Adobe executable but stops with a password request. Looks like the exe is password protected.
The funny thing is, that I have the same problem with the acrobat reader X.
I never saw this problem before, all other installer (Office, Firefox, Irfanview, Itunes, ....) works well, only the Adobe installer are all broken.
How I can fix that whithout reinstalling everything. Please help.
Thanks a lot
Erik

Flash install problems - what else...

Hi,
I also have big troubles with that new Flash Version. I tried to install it several times, it also seems to work - the "test" page tells me that i have the latest version - and yet i cant open some Pages in the web browser. they tell me that i have to download the latest version...
I use Firefox Version 3.6.3 running Windows Vista 64 bit.
Thanks

Ok, now use IE and go to Tools and manage add ons and find Shockwave Flash Object..ActiveX Control. Does it say Flash10e.ocx? Make sure it is Enabled.
Do you know how to go to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash? If you do, right click on the Flash folder and post back all of the files listed there. The NPSWF files, you will need to right click on each one and then click on Properties so you can get the version numbers. I need that information also.
If all of the Flash Player files for Internet Explorer and Firefox are not correct then that would be the problem. So let's make sure.
If you need instructions on how to find that Flash folder, just let me know.
Thanks,
eidnolb

Flash install problem for multiple users

Working on an home PC trying to set up Flash. Go through
install logged in as myself (systemadmin access) and install goes
fine. Flash pages load on IE Other users on system, also Admin
access, can not get same Flash pages to load. Running WinXp. Have
tried both IE 6 and 7. Firefox is running fine for all users
Thanks for any help you can provide

During install, you should be prompted whether you want to install the loops for the current user only or for every user. In the latter case, the loops should end up in HD/Library/Audio/Apple Loops

Flash installed and up to date however flash does not run on any web browser

I was catching up on watching a televsion show and watching it with no issues/no problems with flash before. I went to the website below and all of a sudden flash is not working. I did not change any settings, run any updates. I checked various browsers, flash content is not working on any of them. I can view youtube videos however just about any other site I've tried, nothing and many websites will not display correctly. I tried some of the troubleshooting suggestions in the forum however some of them I'm unable to do such as alter the flash settings, it takes me to the page but tells me I don't have Flash installed. I've tried switching user accounts on my pc as others have said flash works for them on the other account however mine is still broken. I've actually tried a system restore, still no luck.
Windows 8 (64 bit)
Flash Version 11.9.900.152
Tried web browsers IE, Firefox, Chrome - I've verified it is enabled
Active X is disabled
I've ran the 'test' to verify Flash is installed and it displays the video
I ran the debugger however I do not know how to interpret the data.
PLEASE HELP!!

Flash Player Problem in IE 11 windows 8.1

Flash player isn't working in IE 11 windows 8.1 I just upgraded to windows 8.1, and flash player isn't working in the new IE 11. I installed all updates and have checked that I have the most current version of flash installed. But when I test whether flash is working or not (example, by trying to upload facebook photos), it isn't working. The flash test on adobe's website says I'm not running internet explorer in windows 8 (maybe b/c it's windows 8.1). It works fine in firefox and chrome, but I like the new IE and want to keep using it. Is anyone else having this problem? And how can I fix it?
[spam link removed]

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.

Logic Studio Install Problems

Purchased Logic Studio a couple weeks ago. The first set I recieved would not install correctly and it errored out several times regardless of how I went about installing it. Contacted Apple Support and they indicated I may have a bad set of disks so I returned my set and recieved a new set yesterday. Install problems continue but now different. Orginal set woudl load a coiuple of disks then error out. This set will laod the install disk then when asked to insert the Audio Content 1 disk the computer will spin th edisk around a few times the spit it out. Tried several times and even tried inserting other content disks. I've read some of the conent here and some mention a possibel bad DVD Drive but I do no think my DVD Drive is the problem since after trying the Logic Studio set I successfully installed FrameForge.
When I attempted to install the first set of disks last week I was able to select all the options, SoundTrack Pro, Mainstage, etc. On this set my SoundTrack Pro option is grayed out and I cannot select it to load. I read here last week, when the first set would not load, to remove everything associated with Logic Studio and try again, which I did. Is it possible there are remneants remaining somewhere on my system that is disallowing the SoundTrack install this time?
My system config is:
Processor: 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
Software: Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b)
1TB Internal SATA Disk (This is the drive I am attempting to load on)
256GB Flash Storage
12TB (RAID 5 Configure to 6TB) Pegasus External
This evening I will call Apple Support again, but any advice from the audience is much appreciated.

Adobe Flash Player Problem: "Movie Not Loaded"

new user to mac.
i'm getting more and more frustrated with this computer.
what's bugging me the most right now is
i am unable to view videos on certain websites.
rather than showing the content,
a white box appears.
when i right click on the white box,
it says "movie not loaded" (in gray) and adobe flash player 9 (in black).
i can't click on the gray line.
when i click on the black line, it brings me to the adobe website and tells me adobe flash player 9 has been successfully installed.
i am fairly sure this has nothing to do with heavy traffic.
any insights on how to resolve this issue?
cheers.

Strange flashing cursor problem

Hi,
I've just finished installing Vista 32bit on my Macbook Air (1.6) and its working fine apart from one small problem - when starting up it freezes on a black screen with a flashing cursor for 2-4 mins and then will start loading Vista fine. Once in there is no problem and its stable and what not. I have had a look at some on the articles on here and other forums and the flashing cursor problem usually refers to when people try to first install a MS OS and not once one has been installed successfully.
I only have to boot into Vista every now and then and only for a few minutes at a time so I usually spend as much time in Vista as it does loading.
Any help appreciated.

pixelation problems occurs in my videos when using adobe flash but using chromes pepper flash no problemes so its definitely adobe problems on my WIndows 8.1

Problem is:
Flash Player for IE11 (which is the worst browser ever developed - BAR NONE) is a Microsoft product, when it comes right down to it.
Adobe writes the base code and yes, they do collaborate on updates for it, but the gang in Redmond alter the plug-in and add "proprietary" code before embedding it, and at that point it's "their baby".
There are two (2) registry keys - 1 for 32 bit IE and the other for 64 bit IE, as well as a KB patch that prevent all but the most experienced Windows users from ever touching the Flash Player plug-in for IE. So there's NO WAY you could have done a clean install of the ActiveX plug-in in Windows 8. Unless you're an uber-geek, you can only update it through Windows Update.
WIn 8 is an abomination and IE11 made it worse. IE has always been the "problem child" of browsers, failing to handle CSS, Javascript, some PHP and most design "tweaks" that good webmasters can use with other browsers, trouble free.
I have IE8 on XP, 9 on VIsta, 11 on 7, 10 on 8 and 11 on 8.1... but they're all for testing only. I'd have to be out of my mind to ever think of using IE as my primary browser. ActiveX controls have to be disabled formost stuff and that opens millions of security holes in IE.
You've got a good video card and a decent sound card. It's a shame to waste them on a pile of garbage like IE, just because it came with Windows.

Sometimes Safari shows no flash installed when it is installed

I keep having an issue with safari showing that I am missing a flash plugin. I have adobe installed and I also have click to flash installed. The only way I can get the flash to show back up is buy reseting the browser cache and cookies, as you can imagine this ***** having to constantly dump your cookies temp files when it comes to browsing speed. I have uninstalled adobe and reinstalled, I cant find clicktoflash to remove it, so help on that would be great, plus any other suggestions.

Hi,
Login to another user account on your Mac, try Safari there.
Same problem with Flash there, launch Disk Utility (from the admin account), select the MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the FirstAid tab. Click Verify. If Disk Utility reports errors, in order to make repairs, you must boot from your install disc.

OS 9 Install problem on imac G3

hello all,
i have an OS install problem on my imac . I just finished formatting the drive . the drive is
paritioned :
1st partition = HD1: 5.5 Gb
2nd partition = HD2 : 2.5 Gb
3rd partition = HD3 : 110+ Gb
Then, in order to save some time ( i thought ) , i tried directly install os 9 from an imac
DV CD , on HD1 : i thought i d be quicker so i would have to start with os 8.5 then upgrade to 8.6 and etc .
that turned out to be a bad idea. the system install warned me it couldnt install Air port because the hardware wasnt compatible . it gave me two options : either ignore this message or quit . i chose ignore : again certainly a bad choice .
After the install was finished , the mac wouldnt start on HD1 . the sytem install is apparently incomplete ,or anycase it doesnt work .
i then installed os 8.5 from original imac tray load install CD on HD2 , and it works fine .
now the question is : what should i do with my bad os9 system ? i need an operating system on this partition. perhaps i can trash it and reinstall mac os8.5 on it ? i hope there is a way to get out of this without formatting the drive again .
thanks for any advice .

about the os9 CD : it is a retail verson , only not of the same imac model .
That is not a retail version of OS 9. A retail version of OS 9 has no dependencies on any model of Mac. You have a machine specific disc which probably won't work with your iMac.
1/ i dont know how to reformat a partition without formatting the entire drive . perhaps you can explain .
In OS X you use Disk Utility and only select the partition that you want to reformat. It has been ages since I used OS 8 so I'm not sure if it is even possible using "Drive Setup".

Nano install problems. Works on USB 1.1!

Twelve months ago I went through the getting an IPOD to install properly problems with my son's IPOD, on his all singing all dancing new PC. Only finally resolved this by installing via the firewire port rather than USB. Therefore it was with some trepidation that I recently got a Nano for my wife's birthday, but hey I thought someone like Apple would have got their act together in the interim and installing should be straight forward. Have they? NO! Tried installing the Nano on my aging Pentium III which has a USB 2.0 PCI card, and for which all other devices plugged into it worked OK. Couldn't even get Windows to properly recognise it "A problem occurred during harware install your device may not be working properly". Tried Apple's suggestions and other users suggestions all to no avail. Firewire install option is not a possibility with Nano, but finally thought why not try one of the USB 1.1 ports on my aging computer, and guess what it installed first time and works without any problems. Transfer rate is not to bad either 850 songs in 1hr 10min. The only slightly different thing I did (which some other users also say) is not to re-boot the computer at the end of installation when it prompts you to and start using Itunes straight away and do some downloading then re-boot later.
Not much comfort to users with newer PC's but if you have an older computer with a USB 1.1 port and have install problems, try it as it may work for you as well.
Like every one else with install problems on PC's I say "come on Apple" individually or together with Microsoft please get this sorted out. My view of Apple was that they have great products (still true) that are easy to use (still true) and install without problems (patently not true).
Pentium III 800 Windows XP

Gosh, I have tried this many times. Over several days. I have also reset the shuffle, which as far as I can tell, consists of turning it on and then off.
Last night, it started updating the music via the keyboard USB 1.1, which I know takes forever. Then it lost communications and quit.

How to watch flash based videos without adobe flash installed using Safari

How do I watch flash based videos without adobe flash installed using Safari?

Once you have Chrome installed, activate the Develop menu in Safari (go to Safari Preferences > Advanced > Show Develop Menu). You then will see under the Develop menu the Open Page With option and Chrome will be listed there.
So each time you open a page with Safari requiring Flash, you use that menu option to open the same page in Chrome.
