Flash not installing correctly on Maxthon browser

hi there,
having a problem installing Flash using the Maxthon browser. It used to install fine (I've been using Maxthon for years) but now the Adobe page thinks my browser is Chrome so only offers me "install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aaa_aih.exe", but when I go to BBC's iPlayer site it tells me I don't have flash installed, but going back to Adobe site which tells me it is installed !
for a while the only problem was with the BBC's iPlayer page. Other flash sites worked fine, but today two websites using flash audio players failed telling me I need flash. Went back to Adobe's flash page and it says I have latest version installed !
any advise on how to get the correct version to install properly ?
cheers sarah
PS - running Win 8.1 (64Bit)

Win 8.1 and IE11 have caused this all over the place but this is the first I've seen of it with MaxThon. I don't use MT myself, but doesn't it use the "Gecko" engine (Mozilla)?

    the problem was answered:  you had incorrect embedding.
    and yes, there's javascript to correctly embed swf's in html pages.  the flash ide creates valid javascript and swfobject.js has valid javascript.
    i'm not aware of any other javascript that reliably embeds swf's in html pages.  there are several versions and two methods using swfobject.

  • Why do I get window adobe flash' NOT INSTALLED AFTER I HAVE JUST UNINSTALLED AND THEN REINSTALLED IT

    why do I get a "correct version of adobe flash not installed"message after I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times.  It worked on this computer for the last six months?

    What is your operating system, version & edition?
    What is your web browser?

  • Ituneshelper was not installed correctly, please reinstall itunes

    trying to install itunes i have unstalled adn reinstalled several times but keep getting this message when i try to open itunes
    ituneshelper was not installed correctly, please reinstall itunes
    error 7
    please help

    ituneshelper was not installed correctly, please reinstall itunes
    error 7
    The error 7 suggests you might also be getting a problem with your Apple Application Support as well as iTunes.
    So let's try uninstalling both iTunes and Apple Application Suppport this time. When we reinstall iTunes, that should reinstall Apple Application Support as well. We'll take a few additional explicit precautions along the way too. Best to print these instructions out, because at one stage of proceedings you won't be able to use a web browser.
    Preliminaries
    Download and save a fresh iTunes installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the iTunes install just yet.)
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Now, quit QuickTime (if you have that open) and Safari 4.0.4 (if you have that installed and open). Both applications use Apple Application Support, and they will interfere with the uninstall if you have them open.
    *Uninstall phase*
    Head into your "Uninstall a Program" control panel. Uninstall iTunes. Uninstall Apple Application Support.
    (From this point on until we reinstall Apple Application Support, neither QuickTime nor Safari 4.0.4 will be able to run.)
    Next we'll remove any leftover program files and folders.
    (1) Open "Local Disk (C:)" or whichever drive your program files are stored on.
    (2) Open the "Program Files" folder.
    (3) Right-click on the iTunes folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
    (4) Open the "Common files" folder.
    (5) Open the "Apple" folder.
    (6) Right-click on the Apple Application Support folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
    Now empty your Recycle Bin and restart the PC.
    *Reinstall Phase*
    After the PC restarts, do not open any other applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus and antispyware).
    Now start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file you downloaded earlier.
    Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to your network and/or the internet.
    Did the install seem to go through okay? If so, does iTunes start launching properly again?

  • I tried to download your firefox but it would not install correctly

    I have had your Firefox browser before. However, I don't have it now. I recently tried to download it but it did not install correctly. Nothing appears on the screen when I open it. What seems to be the Problem?
    I like Firefox but cannot install it. Why?

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
    #Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
    '''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
    After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
    * '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    * '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
    #Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
    #In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
    #Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
    #* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
    #* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
    #Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    #Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    #Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Resinstalling Itunes does not fix the error? It won't let me play my audible books because 'itunes was not installed correctly', so I reinstalled it and it still won't work. I'm lost, any suggestions?

    I recently moved my itunes to a new computer. The audible stuff doesn't automatically come up because its not purchased from the itunes store. So I opened the files with itunes on my new computer. It said that I had to authorise my audible account on this computer which I did, but then itunes came up with the following:
    'Could not authorise this computer because iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.' 
    So I uninstalled then reinstalled iTunes and it still didn't work, I then did it again and it STILL DIDN'T WORK.
    I have absolutely no idea what to do now, so if anyone has any advice it would greatly appreciated.

    When uninstalling iTunes on your windows computer, there is a specific way it must be done in order to completely uninstall all components of the software.  Ensure you follow the article for your correct OS.
    Windows XP - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925.
    Windows Vista or Windows 7 - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.

    I'm getting a n error message when I try to open Itunes. Itunes was not install correctly. Please reinstall itunes. Error 7 (Windows error 1114) This happened after I unsuccesfully tried to install an update. I have had itunes on this computer for three years. When I try to reinstall the latest version I get another message.Service Apple Mobile Device (Apple mobile Device) failed to start. verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. Abort, Retry, Ignore Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates

  • Vista itunes not installed correctly.  Error 7.  Windows error 998.  Itunes helper not installed correctly.  Service Apple Mobile Device failed to start.  Insufficient privileges.

    OK, spent about 25 frustrating hours so far this weekend doing everything recommended on numerous threads here -- uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and all Apple items.  Help?
    I am using Windows Vista home premium.  After the last iTunes update to 12, it suddenly would not work.  I followed, to a T, all instructions to uninstall all Apples software, in the correct order, reboot, download the latest iTunes, run as administrator, plug in the iPhone 5S, let the driver install, and then finish.
    Along the way, I received the error that "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."  I am the administrator and have privileges.  (I previously followed instructions from anther thread to change the read-only privileges for Apple folders, but to no avail.  I also deleted every file with the word Apple in it after I uninstalled everything.)  I did a retry and then an ignore during installation of the AMD error, which I have received 10 times.
    The other error I keep getting is:  "iTunesHelper was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7."  I have done that 20 times.
    Other frequent error:  "iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7 (Windows error 998)."
    I followed other threads suggestions to install Windows .NET versions 3.5 and 4.0.  No help.  I also looked for various specific Apple files in various folders for DLLs, etc.  Not present.  I have rebooted 50 times and tried different users on my home account as well.  Nothing.
    I also followed instructions to Manage my computer under "services."  Under Apple Mobile Device, the setting is for "automatic."  When I try to get it to "start," the error I receive is "Windows could not start the Apple Mobile Device on Local Computer.  Error 1053:  The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."  (I followed previous thread instructions to use the CMD prompt to stop it.  That caused problems because the status was then "stopped," but I was able to restart it later once I figured that out -- but with the 1053 error again.)
    I think I've tried every suggestion in every thread for the four errors I keep getting (AMD failed to start; iTunesHelper Error 7; Windows error 998; and AMD Error 1053.)  I am fresh out of ideas and very frustrated.  I mostly want to make sure I don't lose my music and photos, which I was about to sync.
    The only other thing I see that is strange on my computer (which I discovered along the way) is that I cannot receive automatic windows updates and have not had an update since 2012.  My iTunes worked a month ago, so that was obviously not a show-stopper in the past, but perhaps there is a Vista update I need for iTunes 12?  I have service pack 2 for Vista.  I have followed all threads to try to set my windows to automatic update, but no joy there either.  It checks for updates and then fails.  I followed instructions and did run an installation to install windows automatic updates, but that doesn't work either.  I tried 10 times.  It runs and takes a while, but is never able to successfully update windows.  It says "checking for updates" for a while.  Then it dies.  My last update was 6/19/12 (failed) and it says the most recent check was 6/22/12, but I have tried 20 times on 10/31/14 and 11/1/14.
    When asked to "Install new Windows Update software" to check for updates, I have done so 10 times.  It downloads and installs, but never works.
    It's an old Dell desktop computer from 2006, and I'm using an iPhone 5S.  I am fresh out of ideas.  Anyone really smart here?
    Thanks.
    Tristan

    Upon latest reboot, I also received this error message:  "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005).  Click OK to terminate the application."
    Then I got the iTunesHelper not installed correctly error again.
    Then the "Windows can't check for updates" error message.
    Then "Apple Push has stopped working."  Then a quick DEP error message that disappeared but said something about Apple Push being closed.
    I'm also getting denials of service logged by McAffee.  Not sure if I'm getting a virus/attack or not.
    Not sure if it's a problem with my old desktop machine, my Windows Vista updates, or iTunes, but I'm very frustrated and out of ideas to try.
    Thank you for your help!

  • Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. and 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)

    Hi!
    So i think i closed the wrong service at some point a few weeks back (apple mobile device) but iTunes remained working after that for another week. I then updated iTunes and i get the same  "Service ‘Apple Mobile Device’ (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start.  Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." every time. If i click ignore, just so i can access iTunes with out syncing my iPod (touch 2nd gen) i then get 'iTunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)" when it has all installed. I don't understand what the problem is anymore as I have looked at other questions on the apple website, carried out the advice and it hasn't work. Any of them.
    Tings I have done:
    - Wiped all iTunes and Apple data from my computer (if you search for 'iTunes' or 'Apple' nothing comes up apart from applets from system code.
    - Attached iPod before iTunes install and updated drivers.
    - Installed iTunes as 'Run as administrator'
    - Uninstalled and re-installed the software nearly 20 times now and rebooted the computer in between everytime.
    Please someone help because i really need to get music on my ipod and i enjoy the ease of use of iTunes compared to spotify or Windows Media Player.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
    Regarding AMDS failures there is a hint in another thread that disabling the Windows Firewall before attempting to reinstall may help, otherwise take a look at the steps outlined in this post. Re: Can't install iTunes 12.1 on Windows 7 64-bit. I know they look a little daunting, but the process of generating the logs themselves isn't that hard to do. Extracting useful information from them is still a challenge but maybe something will leap out. If you want to post the log for the failed components for me to have a look at here or in the other thread please edit out any personal information, particularly your email address, first.

    This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. (-42037) this is the error message i get when trying to open itunes. it wont let me download another version

    First uninstall your copy of Itunes--http://www.tekrevue.com/tip/uninstall-itunes/  (make sure you empty crash)  Then you go to the applications website and reinstall it.  Dont worry about losing any of your music because thats in a separate folder.   Thats it---it works.

    While having a perfectly running iTunes and all programs associated, I was notified of the iTunes 10.4 upgrade. After following typical directions, I have had nothing but trouble. First “iTunesHelper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 5)” occurred. Following directions found at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15087646#15087646, I now get the following “iTunes.exe - System Error The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is still missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.”, Along with “iTunesHelper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)” I am running Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit on HP TouchSmart tx2-1275dx. I was one week away from buying an iPad but not if this is what I have to deal with. Please help

    I actually managed to resolve this on my own by downloading iTunes from the Apple website and reinstalling iTunes that way. Here's the link: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ That should fix your problem. Good luck!

  • ITunes won't open. it says "Error 7 iTunes was not installed correctly" I know I did though. Now what? Should I uninstall? I don't want to loose my music!

    I have the latest version of iTunes and when I went to go open it, it can't! It says: "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.Error 7 (Windows error 126)"  What do I do now? Should I uninstall and try installing it again? I don't want to loose any of my music and info. PLEASE HELP!

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • ITunesHelper was not installed correctly. Error 7  Help!! My itunes worked yesterday.

    My itunes wont open without an error message that says itunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall itunes Error 7 (Windows error 14001) What has caused this and how do I get my itunes back????

    after i researched this issue for several days and i emailed apple support this is what i did and it really worked.  somewhere i saw on a post to download revo uninstaller because it gets rid of all aspects of a program.  i downloaded the revo uninstaller pro.  you get a 30 day free trial.  i uninstalled everything apple.  there is a place on there where you check what scale of scan to use.  the first time i used medium on the first few items and advanced on the rest.  the advanced scan really went through each and every file after the so called uninstall and found traces of the programs. i had to check boxes beside files that had traces and removed them all. (I ended up having to do this twice because the first time i did this the error box kept popping up when i reinstalled, so my advice is to choose advanced each and every time.  also after the first time, that box popped up during the reinstall of itunes that said i needed permission to install something.) Next thing i did was checked on the recent updates and installs on my computer.  windows/ms had installed 3 things in those automatic updates.  i uninstalled all 3.  i'm convinced that there is a corrupt file in there somewhere.  there are several fixes and scans on the left side of revo, and i ran several of them just to check.  the final one on the bottom was an evidence remover.  since everywhere i have seen says to remove all traces, apparently when you empty the recycle bin it really doesnt get rid of it.  so i did the evidence remover.  it took all day.  almost 9 hours.  next, apple support had suggested i go to windows update site and download the latest version of there update software.  i was wary, but i did this update.  i restarted my computer.  next i went back to apple and reinstalled itunes.  during the reinstall, the box that said i needed permission didn't pop up.  after the install the error box didnt pop up.  and when i went to itunes, everything was there.  i cant tell you which exact step fixed it, but something did.  good luck to you.  i emailed the apple support guy back and mentioned the revo uninstalled.  i'm pretty sure that advanced scan really did the better delete than just uninstalling.
