Flash Player 12.0.0.4 will not install to Safari & Firefox OSX 10.7.5

I have gone through the "clean install" process posted in this forum 3 times now in an attempt to get FP 12.0.0.4 to install to Safari. I have downloaded 12.0.0.4 and run the install process. It successfully installs to Chrome but each time, Safari and Firefox again end up with 12.0.0.38! Then if I go back to the check Flash Player page: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
It will tell me 12.0.0.4 is the current verison that should be installed.
If I go to Mozilla's check plugins page https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
It will tell me that 12.0.0.38 is installed for FF and is "up to date."
So, is 12.0.0.4 only for Chrome or what?

Ok. Thanks Mike.
It would be nice if Adobe published the correct information then.
The Flash Player page specifically shows 12.0.0.4 for Safari, FireFox and Opera. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Correct info would have prevented a pointless waste of time. The other Flash Player test page also reports the wrong information when viewing via Safari and FF.

  • Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 will not install on mozilla firefox 27.0.1

    I am using Windows XP.  I downloaded Adobe Flash Player 12.0.0.77 and installed it on my computer.  I opened Mozilla Firefox 27.0.1 and went to Youtube.  I clicked on a video to watch and received the following:
    The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback.
    Get the latest Flash Player.
    I opened Control Panel of my computer and saw that Adobe Flash Player is indeed installed.  So why is Firefox not using it?

    It seems to work in my system. However, to get a reasonable answer you should ask in the Flash forum and not this one.

  • Flash Player 10.3.183.10 will not work in Safari on Mac OS X 10.5.8

    Mac OS X 10.5.8
    Safari 5.0.6
    Flash Player 10.3.183.10
    Flash Player10.3.183.10 will not work in Safari on Mac OS x 10.5.8
    The instillation says that it is successful, however when using Safari I'm informed I do not have flash player installed. When I check the hard drive, flash player in no where to be found. I have tried all of the troubleshooting from the Adobe website, and I am still stumped. I was able to get the Flash Player to run in firefox 5.0, but not Safari.
    Please Help!!!! I have searched the discussion boards for days now in my spare time and have not been able to find an answer.
    I am not the most savvy person with computers, what am I missing here??

    In my Library/Internet Plug-ins folder I have a file named Flash Player.plugin (it's 22.8 MB however, not 23.9mb) and another named flashplayer.xpt (it's 4 KB however, not856 bytes).
    I am unable to open the Plug-Ins menu (the browser pops up but wont load)...is there another way to check for Shockwave Flash?? When I do a search for "Shockwave" on my hard drive I do find a plug-in named "DirectorShockwave.plugin" (76 KB)
    Also...The "Open using Rosetta" checkbox was already unchecked

  • Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.94 will not install in Mac

    I am trying to install Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.94 into my MacBook OS 10.8.4 but everytime ot gets to 50% I get an error message saying Please quit the follwong programs to continue. Safari. et my Safari is closed. I have tried closing via CMD+Q and tried to install via Finder when I haven't even opended Safari at all. It is starting to get very annoying

    Thank you, CF. I can't find my original post re this problem, but the "clean install" finally worked.Thank you so much and everyone else who chimed it. This is the way to go. However, I had to do it 4 times before it finally worked. So my advice is print out the instructions and folow them to the letter. Don't be discouraged if they don't work immediately. Go through the whole thing again and again if you need to. It WILL work.

  • Flash Player 11(?) newest version will not install

    Hi!  I have followed all of your recommended options in downloading the newest  version of Flash Player. I cannot get it to download. I have Internet Explorer Windows 7 Please help.

    We're getting a lot of these complaints with this latest update and Snow Leopard...
    I made a PDF with illustrated, detailed instructions to resolve it: Snow Leopard Clean Install.pdf
    Use THIS file with those instructions: Flash Player 12.0.0.44 (Mac OS X)

  • Flash player 11.5.502.149 will not install, states that the version of flash is not the most current

    I'm using the runtime (install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe) install for Flash 11.5.502.149 which I just downloaded.  I'm trying to install it on a Windows 7 64bit system.  When I try to run it the install tells me that the version of flash is not the most current and I should download the most recent version.  Accorsing to the site, this is the most recent version.  Any thoughts?
    Thaks,
    Keith

    By the time I saw this, the OS was corrupt.  This isn't going to help me right npw.  One very important item, though, for those of us who use the runtime to install, it needs to be modified so that it doesn't look for a newer version of the install before it actually installs.  We use Altiris to push this out to our folks and that check causes the installation process to stop.  My guess is that it is waiting for a response which will never occur since it is running in a hidden window.  I agree that it needs to be updated, but this method is causing significant issues.  This was the same problem I found when trying to install an older version of Flash that didn't  have the issues with Sysprep that later ones did. 
    That said, is there a switch for the install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe that will force it to run without checking first?  The -install doesn't stop the checking.
    Thanks,
    Keith

  • Adobe Reader will not install to my IMac OSX 100.7.5

    When I have a program open and want to download a PDF file that is when I get message to install Adobe Reader in order to print the PDF, when I try to download the Reader it either goes through the install action and says it is downloaded or it tells me the Adobe Reader is already installed.  Message doesn't matter because it is not downloaded and installed.  The only thing I find in my Finder download section is the Adobe Reader install download.  I have tried this so many times.  When I first got my Mac I downloaded the Adobe Flash Player with no problem.  Any suggestions?

    Ok. Thanks Mike.

  • Ebay will not load on safari, firefox or camino, but all other sites load without any problem. Can anyone help?

    ebay will not load on safari, firefox or camino, but all other sites load without any problems. Why is this? Can anyone help?

    It should be: Click on Home Folder (the House) and to the right Library is shown, click on the arrow on the Library folder to reveal its contents and then click on Cookies to reveal its contents and then move the Cookies.plist to the Trash as Carolyn suggests.
    Then try eBay again.

  • Flash Player Mac 10,3,181,26 not loading in Safari 5.0.5 64-bit mode, any fix?

    As the title says, the Flash Player 10,3,181,26 is not not loading in Safari 5.0.5 64-bit mode, I found out after wasting 2 hours installing/uninstalling the plugin and trying anything from repairing disk permissions to installing a fresh Safari app, then it hit me... switch Safari to 32-bit mode and bang!, Flash Player worked just fine.
    Even as a long time Flash developer, I refuse to stay in 32-bit mode just to be able to see my work in Safari so please Adobe guys, find a fix for this.

    Hi, You are probably aware of the Square version which is 64bit support. Haven't heard when it may be ready for a shipped version. But it's being worked on. Since you are a Developer, I thought maybe you'd be working on it too.
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/square/
    My system is not a 64bit, but I can see where one would forget which browser they were using. Something like having more than one computer and forgetting which one has certain info:-)
    Thanks,

  • PSE 8 will not install on new imac OSX Snow Leopard

    28. Feb 26, 2010 4:16 PM in response to: docmark86
    Re: PSE8 will not install on Mac Snow Leopard 10.6.1
    I have a new iMac 21.5 screen with OSX Snow Leopard.  I installed IWork and turbo tax with no problem.  Nothing else.
    PSE 8 installation fails after about 80% installation just as install for PSE 8 starts. I've spent hours on the phone with Adobe and they blame it on OSX   Error analysis states:   "Uncaught JavaScript exception: Unable to read Adobe file version for path /Library/Fonts/MinionPro-Bold.otf  Apple techs have also tried."   The latest communications from Adobe instructs me on validating fonts.  We have also tried  CS3 Clean Script since the install failed several times. Case # is 0181442609.    Nothing works and Apple techs are still researching.  Any suggestions from an Adobe professional?  I am new to the Mac environment so any complicated actions may require some "hand holding".
    Thanks to all!
    Doc

    Doc, I would suggest go to the font location which from your post is: <Macintosh HD>/Library/Fonts/MinionPro-Bold.otf. There should be a font file with this name. If it exists, just "cut" it from this location and paste it on the desktop for some time and then try to install PSE again and see if that works.
    If the font file doesnt exist and instead an empty folder names "MinionPro-Bold.otf" exists, then delete the folder and then try to install PSE again.
    In either case, please do attach the installer log file in the forum thread so that I can have a look at it. They can be located at the below location:
    <Macintosh HD>/Library/Logs/Adobe/Installer/"...Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0...."
    If there are multiple copies of the installer log files, then please delete them and then try to install PSE 8 again. If it fails, quit the installer and attach the new log files which are generated to this thread.
    Regards,
    Ankush

  • Updater will not install updates from Firefox

    Windows XP, click on Help, About Firefox, Check for updates. They download. Then I click on Apply update. A window appears saying "updater.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." Then I may choose whether to send the error report.
    There has been no update. It will not install.
    Why does this happen? The only way I can get updates from Firefox is to go to Mozilla.com and download.
    I tried the troubleshooting tips in Firefox Help and nothing worked.

    I should have explained that this has been going on for a long time. When I first installed Firefox several years ago their updates installed fine.
    Then they no longer would install, starting in July 2007 when they downloaded Firefox 2.0.0.4. After they installed that, Firefox would not even open, and I got an error message. I had to uninstall and reinstall.
    I figured out over time that I would have to go to their website and download the updates myself, each time they announced that an update needed to be installed. It would then install fine. And Firefox would open as it should. This has been the case for a long time.
    So it does work out doing it this way. It is something of a nuisance, and it would be nice if the updates worked smoothly and automatically, as they used to.
    I thought this might be some problem others users have had and would know how to fix it.
    Thank you.

  • Flash Player pauses every 5 seconds will not any play video through

    I had this problem a few weeks ago and I fixed it by resetting IE8 and now it's doing the same thing again after another flash player update.   I have uninstalled and reinstalled both flash and IE8, gone back to IE7 then back again, tried every thing I can think of.  This is driving me crazy!! There has got to be someone out there that can help

    frenchy5370,
    is Sky provided by cable or by satellite? If it’s by cable, then every Sky subscriber in your immediate neighborhood is sharing  the pipe which Sky provides. (That is, it wouldn’t be a matter of how many devices are behind your firewall.)
