Flash Player 11.9 not working after downloaded

I have downloaded, removed, restarted my computer and redownloaded the latest version of Flash Player. I have cleared the cache and deleted the history. I see that adobe.com recognizes that I have the latest version but when I click on a yahoo news story or other video website it seems that Flash Player is not recognized? It tells me to download Flash Player on my computer. Also, when I search for Flash Player on my computer I can not find it unless I go to the "unistall program" section. I have tried everything I know of. Please help and thank you!!

Also, when I search for Flash Player on my computer I can not find it unless I go to the "unistall program" section.
That's because it's a plugin and NOT a program. You can find it in C/Windows/System32/Macromed and C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed. But if it's in your programs list in the Control Panel's Uninstall a Program section, and you can find the Global Settings manager [Flash Player (32bit)] in the System and Security section of the Control Panel, it's installed.
Yahoo is one of about a dozen MAJOR sites that have had massive problems with IE11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

    I'm  using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
    For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash.  Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything.  I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
    Yup.  Nothing.  When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option.  I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
    When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
    Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
    genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
    KB931433
    FlashInstall
    Install
    Flashplayer.xpt
    When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled.  I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure.  Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled.  The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
    Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website.  I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine.  I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems.  It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
    Any ideas?

    Well, great.  I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it.  No such luck.  The video still plays, but no sound.
    All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players.  I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
    In the Flash folder, I now have:
    Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
    Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
    FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
    Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
    And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
    I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
    I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go.  The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
    Now what?  I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

    Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
    I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
    Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).
    After that, if the problem persists, have a look at this page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83739.html

  • My sound on FaceTime is not working after downloading iOS 6 ??

    Ever since I have downloaded iOS 6 when I am on a FaceTime call nobody can ever hear me. Has anyone else had sound problems since the new update ??

    same issue here... And a restore didn't do any good either.
    Try backing up your information to iTunes, and Restore your devices as new with no content on it what-so-ever. If the issue persists after that, this may be a hardware issue. Check your Mic's for debris, and remove the case you have on the device as well to see if you have the same results. Then contact Apple Support if all else fails.

  • Script does not work after download

    Hi,
       I have build a form in SAP enviornment using Adobe Life Cycle designer, while designing I have been using XML datasource and wrote scripts for different events on the elements of the form, the script works perfectly fine while designing, but fails when downloaded through an application. I downloaded form and to check if the scripts are still there or not, the script was present, but would not simply execute, for ex. while on clicking of button, certain fields on the form are to be hidden, but this would not work.
    ex. this.parent.parent.StaticText39.presence
    = "hidden";this.parent.parent.STELL_STEXT.presence
    = "hidden";
    The above scripts work perfect durong designing the form, but would not work after form is downloaded through an applciation. Could any one have answer to wierd behaviour?
    Regards,
    Shishir.P

    Was the form saved as a dynamic XML form?
    While the default preview in LiveCycle Designer may be set to dynamic XML form, thus providing the dynamic behaviour you are seeking, if the form is not saved as a dynamic XML form Adobe Reader and Acrobat will not respect the changes to the presence property at run-time.

  • About in tears from new adobe flash player 10.3 not working

    After installing the new Adobe Flash 10.2.153.1 on my Windows7 64 bit computer, it can not be found when using my IE8 (does not show 32 or 64 bit only 256-bit).
    I have uninstalled using your reference on "please read: when asking Flash Player questions" and then reinstalled. It is on the programs list as installed but when I go to a site that needs me to use Adobe Flash it says I need it install it. Whn I go to the adobe web site to verify that I have installed Adobe Flash it only has a box with a small red x in the corner.
    I have updated my devices drivers.  I do not completely understand what a "kill-bit" is; however, I have gone into my registry and there is no registry keys that have {d27....etc}. There are many other numbers and most have a compatibilty flag of 0x00000400. So I must not have a "kill-bit" for Flash Player set. Not sure what that means.
    Can you help me? And have I given you enough info?
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    FYI - have uninstalled adobe flash player since we last replied should I try to install again?
    I have checked this too and
    *Shockwave Flash Object installed and Enabled. version 11.5.7.
    * Yes at medium now (was at med high)
    * have mcafee but just installed tonight your recommended microsoft security essentals (did a quick scan tonight)
    * C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash - FlashInstall (txt file) and Install (txt file)
    * No error messages - was told it was installed successfully
    thanks!

  • Flash Player installed but not working properly

    I have Windows 7 64 bit, and run IE11.
    I have Adobe Flash Player installed.
    It works fine on my login (administrator) but my young Son can not watch video's, as it says Flash Player is not installed.
    How do I fix this please?

    Flash Player has updated to 11.87.800.175 today; is it working better?
    If not, what means "not working properly"?

  • Flash Player not working after downloading new version

    I downloaded Flash Player 10 and it does not work.I am using Windows XP and Internet Explorer. I have tried the trouble shooting. I have made sure its enabled under Active X and it does not work at all now. I have tried to download Flash Player 9 and now that will not download. I regularly use site that require Flash and I am shut down until I can figure out what is wrong. Please help.

    I have the same issue after I was prompted yesterday to upgrade my Flash player. With the new version, 2/3 of Flash pages do not work. But 1/3 do work !
    Example of page that does not work with new version of Flash :
    http://www.youtube.com/  (the whole site)
    http://www.adobe.com/fr/products/flashplayer/  (Adobe's official Flash page !)
    Example of page that does work with new version of Flash :
    http://www.voleursdechevaux.be/page_flash.html
    On first glance, I would say that Flash loaded through JavaScript fails. Only Flash embedded through HTML works. But I am not competent enough to discover why.
    Here is my current configuration (the version test at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html works well) :
    Player Version : WIN 10.0.22.87
    Debug Player : no
    Operating System : Vista
    Browser : Internet Explorer 8

  • Flash Player 10.1 not working for Mac

    I recently downloaded the new flash player 10.1 for my mac and also have updated to the latest safari browser but every time i try and watch any videos or play flash games it doesn't work and i'm told to download the latest flash player. I've tried uninstalling the reinstalling and enabling the flash plugin but nothing is working. After it says that it has installed successfully which i do when all the browsers are shut and i restart the computer it doesn't work. Not sure if i've done something wrong, but this is driving me up the wall!!!! Can anyone please help me??

    Hi, Sometimes the update of the Safari browser disables the Shockwave Flash plugin. Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have: Make sure it is Enabled.

  • Flash Player installed but not working....

    had a virus 3 days ago which was resolved with assistance from Microsoft.  Now Adobe Flash does not work (when I go to Youtube, it says I do not have the latest version.  I have unistalled, restarted, installed at least 10 times.  Sites still say I need the latest version.  I do see Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X in the programs in my control panel.  I have downloaded version 10.1.102.64.  I am running IE8 (i assume 32-bit since it does not say 64-bit) on Windows Vista.  I have checked the files in my windows/system32/macromed/flash folder and it show the following files:
    Flash Player Trust folder
    Flash10I.ocx
    FlashInstall
    FlashUtil10I_ActiveX.dll
    FlashUtil10I_ActiveX
    install
    I had turned off my Norton AV and firewall. I have also made sure that all security has been set to medium at that java scripting shows as enabled...
    Flash player still does does not work: says I need to install latest version on websites (youtube etc.)
    HELP!!

    Hi, I see you've been on quite a few forums advocating Firefox & Chrome. All this does is give them a browser that perhaps Flash Player would be performing as it should. But it doesn't solve their issue with IE.
    And referring users to follow procedures meant for another user under different circumstances and computer configurations
    is not in their best interest.
    All you are doing is confusing the person, since the required information about their computer has not been obtained.
    You may want to rethink posting referrals, I could do that myself, since I'm on a lot of threads here.

  • Latest Flash Player Install is not working

    Hello, I need some help please. I have been through the install process at least seven times if not more, all previous versions of flash player have been deleted, and it is not working. Sites that I regularly use are still wanting me to install the software that I know I have installed. Even more frustrating is that there is no other way to contact Adobe about this unless one wants to pay $39 to speak with someone, which I refuse to do when it is their product that is not working right. PLEASE HELP ME!!

    I guess the installer from the main download page was just a downloader, and for whatever reason it didn't work for me.

  • Adobe Flash Player installed - but not working

    I have Windows 7, 64 bit, with Internet Explorer 11.  On the day before Thanksgiving everything was working fine.  I received a greeting on 11/27 and was unable to open it - I was told I needed to install Adobe Flash Player - assumed it was an update - but since that time I've been unable to open any of the puzzles on Shockwave, or cards from greeting card providers - probably some other things, but I haven't found out about them yet.  Every time I try to open any of these programs, I get a message that I need to install the flash player.  My control panel shows that I have Adobe Flash Player 15 Active X, 6 MB, version 15.0.0.239 installed and the add-on manager under tools says it's enabled - but it escapes me what it's enabled to do other than drive me batty and waste all my time.  I've rebooted the computer, closed all IE windows, numerous times after uninstalling the program and then reinstalling it - all a waste of time.  Is there any advice out there?  Linda Kochefko, El Dorado, KS

    is Active X Filtering something that should show up under Tools, Manage Add-Ons?  If so, I think I had it earlier this week, but it's gone now.  In my efforts to eliminate the Flash Player so I could reinstall a working copy, I may have uninstalled too much.  It's not listed under Programs or under Tools at this time.

Now im trying to play a game on facebook and it keeps saying Please update your flash player by clicking HERE.Now i've uninstalled flash with the uninstaller and rebooted and reinstalled. I've tried installing 11.1 beta and that didn't help. I installed both same time and that didn't help. i went to the flash site to see if flash is installed and even though it was installed it kept saying install plugin so i did. Then i had shockwave player 10.3 and flash 11.1 beta. Now i've taken everything off and only got 10.3 on. Of course it still doesn't work. I tried removing that npswf32.dll file but that just tells firefox i don't have flash.

    Posting incomplete information also slows things down considerably, and posting the same problem multiple time only wastes the volunteers' time.

    Yip then my post is definitely for people like you. Funny how your reply took a day but my problem was only sorted out 4 days later. I had over 100 views of my post in a few hours. I hardly call that a "few regulars". I think you'd be annoyed if your problem wasn't sorted out either. I think only one person replied which was helpful, the other post i did another one person replied but he was trying to be clever. Multiple posts don't waste volunteers time if noone's replying, now is it? Please think before you post next time, seriously.
