Flash player 9 installed but...

I am trying to open raw .swf files (not through a browser). I
uninstalled what I thought was my old flash player and installed
the new Flash Player 9. When I double click on the .swf it
automattically opens the Flash Player 6 window and does not play
the file. If I right click the .swf and open in a IE browser window
it runs fine. How do I set FP 9 as the default for all files, not
just in IE.
Is there a way to get the Flash Player 9 file as an .exe that
I can open and then open the file?

I've been trying to reproduce this for the last few weeks but so far have been unable to. If I understand you correctly, when you go to this page:
http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/swfobject/testsuite_2_2/test_dynamic_multiple.html
You're seeing the alternate content (most likely prompts to update/install flash) for all 4 blocks? Do you have any idea what I could be missing and why I can't reproduce this?
Thanks,
Chris

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 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.

Adobe says I have latest Flash Player installed but it's not listed in program list and a video souce says I need to download it to open their video.

I can't open some videos--they say I need Flash Player but Adobe says I have successfully installed the latest 64-bit version. It doesn't show in the list of all programs but it is on the "uninstall" list. I have uninstalled the old version
Flash Player works if I use Explorer or Chrome

Your More system details list shows that you have the Flash plugin installed.
*Shockwave Flash 11.1 r102
If the Adobe test page confirms that Flash is installed and working then you may have an extension that is causing problems.
*http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode

I have the latest Adobe flash player installed but it does not show up in my add-ons or plug-ins on Firefox 3.6. In the plug-in check, it recognizes that the shockwave flash is up to date. How can I have the plug-in appear and be enabled on firefox?

I have uninstalled the flash player and installed it numerous times with no recognition by the Firefox plug-ins. I also have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it as well. I have also restarted my computer several times as well. The flash player is certainly installed but not working on Firefox. Thanks in advance for your help.

James j,
You have a different problem. Your screenshot shows "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed".
See [[Plugin crash reports]] and [[The adobe Flash plugin has crashed]]. If you need more help you should [[ask a question|ask a new question]] (start a new thread).

Adobe Flash Player installed, but content doesn't work

Adobe Flash Player works after I install it, but then
evenually it stops working. I have tried lots of support methods,
including downloading Microsoft's tool to fix permission errors. I
am using
Windows Vista Home Premium and the latest version of
Adobe Flash Player.
I noticed somewhere that there was an old thread like this
with someone having the same problem. I saw that someone who
replied showed a screenshot of what the permissions for
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT should look like. Interestingly, they
don't appear to match.
Here is the screenshot:

Please help me fix this problem. Without
Adobe Flash Player, I can't do numerous things, such as
watch videos on
YouTube.

I have solved the problem, thanks to this post:

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.

Windoes 8 flash player installed but youtube videos not working?

I brought a laptop that already came with windows 8 installed on it and adobe flash player. it says i have adobe flash player and there are no problems with it but when i play youtube videos its just instead of the box where the video should be its just black blox instead with not even the buffering sign or play button or anything. so how do i fix this?

If you right click on the black box, do you see a menu appear (displaying About Flash Player at the bottom)? Do you see the same behavior when using IE in either desktop or modern/metro mode? For details on these differences and a couple of other troubleshooting steps, please see this help doc:

Run the uninstaller:
Uninstall Flash Player | Windows
Then run the offline installer:
Internet Explorer:

Newest flash player installed but window keeps popping up saying I need it installed

I have tried over and over again, installing, uninstalling the Newest Edition of Adobe Flash Player. Even though the icon shows up in my programs listing saying its in the computer and that the installation was complete, I still get these small windows showing up stating I need to install the latest flash player when I want to view certain videos. Is it in the computer or not? Help!!

I have a Compaq Presario F700 32 bit computer with Internet Explorer 9 as defaullt browser. I have been having issues getting the flash Player to work....it keeps coming up that I need to download the Flash player when I try to view a video online,like off the weather channel or You tube. It IS in my program list when I open up Programs. sometimes videos come up, other times not. I uninstalled it, reinstalled it, uninstalled it again and again, the screen says that it installed successfully but the window still pops up saying I need to install the newest edition. I have been having issues with my computer after updating a PC cleaner ARO2012, but this download is taken out now, Also when I put a recent update on the Weather channel, the computer froze up, otherwise it was doing pretty well yesterday. It seems like I have a problem with updates from companies, I noticed it twice that the computer froze up soon after.
Also I removed recent downloads thinking that was the problem but the issue still remains. I have done everything that Adobe had instructed in regard to trying to fix this. Even my Microsoft Fix it comes up with errors and I cannot run it. I am beginning to think that my computer is just old(over 5 years) and the downloads are being affected by my hard disc drive not working properly. I did a disc check and one time it stated I had a corrupted Disc C. But then on Startup repair it claimed to have deleted or fixed the problem. I get blue and black screens popping up on my computer often, saying that the program had to close to protect the computer. So I don’t know...I did everything possible. when I go onto the Adobe website.....that little screen they ask you if anything shows up on it to determine if Adobe is installed? Well...it shows up completely blank, not even a error message...but yet, the Adobe Flash player is installed in my computer according to my programs list. Ok, Hope I covered everything. S Lind

Flash Player installed but not recognized

I have been prompted to install Flash Player 11 on Amazon. I attempted to install it from your website. After following all instructions, it says that Flash Player 11 was successfully installed. However, when I go back to Amazon (or any other site that plays video) it says that I need Flash Player 11 as if I never installed it! I tried uninstalling Flash Player using your uninstall function from your website, then attempted to install Flash Player again with the same results: it says that Flash Player was installed correctly, but nothing seems to recognize it when I try to play video. Please help!

Could you try the steps outlined in the FAQs below to see if they help?
