Flash Player doesn't appear on "Start all programs" even after installation completed.

Hello,
I downloaded FlashPlayer 11(latest) and installed.
Installation progress bar reached end that seemed to complete.
But FlashPlayer doesn't appear on windows "Start > all programs".
There is no "FlashPlayer" folder under "Program files  > Adobe" as well.
Would anybody help?
What is missing or wrong on my installation?
Thanks,
togayan

Right.... becuase it ISN'T a program... it's a PLUGIN for your browser.  You'll find it in:
Internet Explorer - Tools (the little "gear" icon)>Manage Add-ons
Firefox - Tools>Add-ons - under the Plugins Tab

    The "Install Flash Player.app keeps popping up on my desktop even after ejecting it - I'm running MacOS 10.9 and a registered user of Creative Cloud. The install app is an older version and won't install because I'm already running a newer version. How do I get rid of this installer?

  • Flash Player Freezes While Buffering Then Won't Proceed Even After Computer Restart

    I am having frequent problems with Flash Player freezing while watching Korean dramas hosted online (http://www.mysoju.com/empress-chun-chu/). Flash Player freezes while viewing file and then won't proceed past that point even if I close all browser windows and even if I restart my computer. Sometimes I can get around this by saving the file to my hard drive using Real Player "download this video" button. However, the download often freezes at what appears to be the same point as the freeze in the streaming Flash Player. Even if I delete this partial file from my hard drive, repeated efforts to download the file again result in instantaneous file completed messages with a new incomplete (partial) file of exactly the same size as before. I can't find where Flash Player or  MS Windows Vista is storing the partial download files. Any help would be greatly aprreciated.
    It appears these Flash Player freezes may be causing or resulting from DSL modem or wireless router connection problems that result in the internet light on the DSL modem not being lit. These problems seem limited to web browser pages with flash player.

  • Flash Player doesn't work, either IE or Firefox.

    Flash Player doesn't work, on either IE or Firefox.  Vista 32 bit, Firefox 10.0.2, Shockwave Flash 11.1.102.62.  Reloaded Firefox and Flash.  I get the spinning circle, but video never starts on IE or FF. Settings manager works.  I'm at a loss.  Update - actually it works on most video now, except Fox Sports or ESPN, either IE of FF.

    After browsing the forums a bit, it would appear that this has been an ongoing problem for more than a month and the only 'inquiry' on the part of Adobe that I can find is one gentleman consistently asking people to report through the adobe bug/crash report process
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/953796
    While I'm certain there have been many, many reports offered up, we have yet to see any solutions from the company, and admissions that there are issues with this product, or any ETA on expecting a reliable, stable version of Flash. 
    It would be very nice to have some feedback formally from the company.  Many users (including myself) are experiencing frequent BSOD, having to spend hours uninstalling, reinstalling and aimlessly troubleshooting our computers all because of this add-in. 
    I recently updated every single hardware driver from my manufacturer, flashed my BIOS, troubleshot memory through self-diagnostics for days, and i still have issues related to Flash.   I've tried the quick fixes suggested by (not sure if he's an Adobe official voice) user 'Chris' to no avail.
    Certainly I could offer my dump file, by what good will that do me?  Adobe, you certainly have enough crash reports to make SOME progress, please offer us up something, even if it's just to update us on any progress or research?  All we know is you want information from us, while we still have nothing from you

    What does the Adobe test page say?
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")
    See also [[No sound in Firefox]] and [[Video or audio does not play]]

    macbook air adobe flash player doesn't work after installation

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 6
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 7
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
    Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
    Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 8
    Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

  • Flash Player that auto appeared on my screen. Ever since I can not play video, and my system has become painfully slow. I have Mac OS Lion 10.7.5 and software is up to date. Before this everything was running beautifully. Can you please provide a link so

    Dear Adobe.
    Yesterday I installed the latest version of Flash Player that auto appeared on my screen. Ever since I can not play video, and my system has become painfully slow. I have Mac OS Lion 10.7.5 and software is up to date. Before this everything was running beautifully. Can you please provide a link so I can uninstall the latest version only. Thank you. Stephen Kress. Melbourne. Australia

    When you run the uninstaller, it will uninstall all Flash Player versions.
    If you want to revert to an older version after that, get it from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html

  • After update flash player doesn't work most of the time

    Hi Folks!
    Windows XP
    IE 6
    About 2 weeks ago I installed a flash player security update and ever since then flash player doesn't work most of the time. On most websites with embeded video all I see is an empty placeholder where the video is supposed to be.
    If I go to a site like Youtube all is fine. However, if I go to a site that has embeded a Youtube video all I see is the empty placeholder where the video is supposed to be.
    Some folks have recommended I uninstall and download and reinstall. The problem with this is that there isn't *anything* related to Abobe flash player in Add/Remove programs.
    Not sure what to do about this (read: I'm totally lost!).
    Here's a screencap of the empty placeholder:
    http://i27.tinypic.com/2wrdttf.jpg

    The standard warranty is for 12 months from the date of purchase, unless you bough AppleCare which would have extended it to 2 years.
    If it's out of warranty, then you pay for repairs, and it's expensive. There are 3rd party repairers who are cheaper.
    Did you try these?
    The Five Rs.
    As the previous poster said, it's more than likely a hardware issue, but there's no harm in trying the software fixes before you decide it needs repair.

  • The online flash player doesn't let me fast forward

    - I'm using windows 8, 64-bit
    - I'm using Google Chrome as a default browser
    - Tried all other browsers including IE, Firefox, Opera and safari, and all of them had the same problem
    THE PROBLEM IS: The online flash player doesn't let me fast forward %70 of all movies on the same websites that used to be working fine before, beside that, everytime i try to fast forward it keeps rewinding to the beginning of the video, I tried uninstalling flash player from control panel and reinstalling it, restarting my pc and uninstalling chrome and reinstalling it too, but nothing.

  • Flash player doesn't work on some websites

    Hi,
    For some reason, video stays black on some websites, some other websites like youtube work. I applied the permissions fix that I found which worked at first but now the problem is back and this fix doesn't work anymore.
    I tried everything from fresh install to using older version, nothing works.
    I don't know what else to do.
    Thanks

  • Flash Player doesn't loop internet animations

    My Flash Player doesn't loop animations that are supposed to repeat theirselves.
    It always stops at the last frame,
    but this only happens to online animations.
    Is there some feature where I could change that?
    Right-clicking and pressing ''repeat'' doesn't work either, since it doesn't even enable it.

    No, of course not.
    I have two computers,
    my old one still has the old Flash Player (I think), and the new one the new version.
    The old computer plays the animation like it's supposed to be, unlike my new one.
    That's impossible if it's missing/containing a command.
