Flash Player 11 Solaris download .tar.tar
When I attempt to download the current Adobe Flash Player 11 for Solaris, either the SPARC or the x86 version, I get a file that ends in .tar.tar which is unreadable using tar or gunzip or any other form of compression software, including WinZip. What am I supposed to do with a .tar.tar ? Usually is't .tar.bz2 or .tar.gz or .tgz.
That's odd that it's changing the extension from .bz2 to .tar. I just tried both files (which I downloaded from this page) and they came down as .bz2 which I was able to open without any problems. Could you try renaming to see if that helps?
Thanks,
Chris

Flash Player won't download for IE7
Since the update of IE7 of last week, I can't download Adobe
Flash Player. I tried downloading it using Firefox and it downloads
but installs only on Firefox, so I suppose the player is browser
specific.
I need the player when I go to www.nytimes.com and click on
the video box, which now a days says I need to update the Flash
Player. I click on the button and it takes me to Adobe downloads,
but when I click for download (agree and install), a new page says
I have to allow downloads and instructs me to "Important Message:
You may need to click the gold bar at the top of the browser window
to allow the install." The thing is that there is no yellow ribbon
for the Adobe website, so I can't really allow for the pop-up
(download). I switched off the pop up blocker and still can't get
the player to download. As I said, this all started after that rush
job by Microsoft to update IE last week.
I run Windows XP, SP3.
What could I be doing wrong?I am having the same issue -- IE7, XP SP3... Flash Player
will not download or install, but will download and install for
Netscape. Must be an IE7 issue, but I can't find a solution. If you
find something out, it would be freat!

Windows 7 - 32-bit or 64-bit?
Make sure you use the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer when you try to use Flash Player, or checking the Shockwave Flash add-on.
What files do you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash (32-bit Windows), or C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash (64-bit Windows) ? -

Unable to install flash player. After downloading the Adobe FLash Player Installer and running it, a grey pop up window opens up but nothing is displayed in it. There is no progress bar or anything and even after keeping it running for a long time there is no progress. Please help with this issue.
Hi Prat,
We are aware of this issue and are working on a fix. In the mean time, please use the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the help page corresponding with your OS and browser:

Why does say"To play the selected item, you must install a later version of the Adobe Flash Player. To download the Adobe Flash Player, go to the Adobe website." when I have the latest Version of it and it's just Black screen with no audio and Video? (Powerpoint Presentation 2013)
You asked your question on the wrong forum. Try one for the Flash Player

Flash Player for Solaris - And J2SE 6.0 for Solaris
Hello,
The current version of flash player for Solaris is 7.0.67.0. For Windows it is 9.0.45.0. What gives? Is Adobe just giving up on Solaris? Now, in Firefox and Mozilla for Solaris, imbedded videos on web pages such as www.nytimes.com will not display, apparently due to the ancient version of Flash for Solaris.
Also, does anyone know when and the new java runtime j2se 6.0 will be released as a patch for Solaris 10? The patches are 118666 and 118667.
Thank you.....From Adobe Lans web site above:
Adobe Labs is currently featuring prerelease versions of the Flash Player 9 Update software. This update includes enhancements and bug fixes for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux versions of Flash Player 9. Please see the release notes for more information regarding this prerelease technology. The prerelease program for Flash Player 9 for Solaris is closed at this time, and Solaris versions of Flash Player 9 will be available shortly from Adobe.com. -
If I run both Firefox and IE 11 which Flash Player do I download or can I download both?
If I run both Firefox and IE 11 which Flash Player do I download or can I download both?
Hi,
Firefox and IE uses different plugins of Flash Player but you can install both in your system.
Just go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer from IE browser and Install Flash Player -> It will install ActiveX plugin of Flash Player which is used by IE
And if you go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ from Firefox browser and Install Flash Player -> It will install NPAPI plugin of Flash Player which is used by Firefox.
Hope it resolves your query. -

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you need Flash for important tasks, download and install it > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer I do not recommend you to use it due to the number of security issues it has got, but if you need it, you can install it without any problem. Just make sure you keep it updated -
Flash Player can't download?
I have Windows Vista Home Premium and when I try to download Flash Player 10 it downloads all the other things such as the unplug or the update helper but not the actual flash player, I have read the troubleshooting instructions to download on Vista but it does not work for me. Can you help?
Hi, I understand what you mean. I just set out instructions for another user today. Following is the thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/581376?tstart=0
The instructions are for Firefox. However you can follow everything in Post#1, except the 2nd link(that's the Install
link for FF) you would use instead the link listed in Post#3. Everything else is the same in Post #1 including the Go here to test. Right below that if you know where the Flash files are, you can do that. "The FF plugin for SWF" of course you would skip over. Instead you would go to Tools, click on Manage add ons and find Shockwave Flash Object...ActiveX Control...
Flash10e.ocx and make sure it is Enabled.
Checking the Flash files is something that is done after you test at the Adobe site.
If you have any questions, please just ask.
Thanks,
