Flash player download failed

I tried downloading the latest flash player. Three times it stopped at 47 percent and told me to close internet explorer. I went for help and checked my internet tools, tried everything suggested. I clicked retry and the only option left was to abort. What do I do now? Uninstall?  -- On the other hand, the videos that weren't playing a minute ago are playing now. What happened?

  • Adobe Flash Player download fails

    Anyone else having trouble downloading Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.62 dated July 26th? I've been trying for several days and it always fails to download. Not sure how to get more detail about what part failed other than what is listed in the status page, which just says "Failed to download one or more packages."

    Well to answer my own question, had a MS patch that also failed to download. Opened up a ticket and was instructed to delete problem patches and either wait for update that night or force update. MS patch showed back up and was able to download. Adobe patch did not come back, so it either no longer applied or was superseeded, I asssume.

  • Flash Player download fails to install at c:\WINDOWS\system32\macromed\flas

    Up until a few months ago flashplayer worked perfectly fine!  Now, it seems like every site I go to asks me to download it.  Everything goes fine when I click on download and a box pops up to "install".  When I click on install, it starts install and stops every time on   "registering:  c:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10b.ocx"
    At this point I get the error message that tells me to go to adobe support and I have followed all of their instructions including uninstalling, downloading some SubInAcl thingy and another zip file and all that, I've reset my security settings, etc. etc.  I've emailed microsoft and adobe and haven't gotten anywhere with that.  Tonight I tried what the lady did with pasting that file onto my desktop and that didn't help me.  I also tried going into IE via safe mode and that didn't help.
    Anyone else have a suggestion???
    thanks, Gina

    This indicates that you have a newer version (11.8.800.175?) already installed, and you try to install an older version (11.8.800.174?) over it.
    What does your Control Panel / Programs & Features say is installed?

  • Flash Player download keeps failing with lost connection and then gives up.  satellite Internet connection

    Win XP. Firefox 34.0.5 (latest)
    The Flash  Player download keeps failing with lost connection and then gives up.I am on a  satellite Internet connection.
    It seems to be extremely slow even when loading the installer which is only 1MB. Then when I run the installer and it starts to download the installation there are frequent messages about losing the connection and then finally gives up.
    I have had problems with other software failing when I am on a satellite link. This is most likely because of the huge latency which may be taken as a link failure. Ping times are typically 800ms but can be 2000ms sometimes!

    Hello,
    The online shim installer, which you are using actually downloads and installs Flash Player silently in the background.  If your satelite connection is experiencing latency issues it could result in the failure to download.  Please try the full installer posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows page, in the 'Still having problems' section.

  • Latest flash player installation fails in IE8/Win XP

    I have been trying to install the latest version of the Flash Player on my XP system for two days. Here's my system info:
    Win = 32-bit Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3
    Browser = Internet Explorer Version 8.0.6001.18702
    Flash Player - the one I was using (recent but not a beta) was uninstalled when I tried to install your latest version at your site in the usual way. After a couple of attempts to install, I downloaded and ran the player uninstaller according the instructions found on your site - Adobe® Flash® Player Installer/Uninstaller 10.1 r53 - just to make sure I was doing a clean install. I also downloaded the latest version and ran it manually.
    All attempts to install have failed. I've seen two different installers, BTW, and they both reported failure but a reason and suggested your troubleshooting page.
    I went to the troubleshooting page, where I tried everything, by the book.
    Most recent attempts produced the following message when attempting to install from your site:
    "The version of adobe flash player active x that you are trying to install is not the most current version. Please visit http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer to obtain the latest, most secure version."
    I went to that page, again without success. There are no Flash active x components listed in my browser objects.
    I was able to install the latest version of Shockwave player (I tried, just to see if that would fail, but that was successful.)
    I should add that I do some web work using Flash 8, so that is also on my system, but I have never run into a problem installing a newer Flash Player until now. (And I have been using Flash since before Macromedia, when it was called FutureSplash.)
    Obviously, HELP!

    This one nearly did me in. Countless uninstalls/installs, headstands, etc. later, I finally found a solution that worked for me:

    I hope this works for you, too!!
    A damaged Windows system registry or incorrect registry permissions settings may prevent you from installing Flash Player.
    Symptoms may include:
    During installation, you see the error message "Failed to install. For Troubleshooting please see: http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19166."
    Your Flash Player installation finishes with no error, but you cannot view Flash content in Internet Explorer.
    Some sites tell you that you do not have the correct version of Flash Player, even though you have installed the latest version.
    Some sites tell you to reinstall Flash Player, but after you do so, you see the same message.
    Permissions can be tricky, but in most cases, you can install and use Adobe Flash Player if you are logged into a Windows Administrator account. If you don't know how to do this, check with your system administrator, or read your Windows documentation.
    System administrators
    If you are a system administrator, see Registry permissions required for Flash Player install or update (TechNote tn_19148).
    Solution
    Warning! By following the directions below, you will modify the Windows System Registry. A mistake could cause serious system damage, which may require you to reinstall your operating system.
    If you are not comfortable editing the registry, get help from your system administrator or another IT professional.
    If you choose to proceed, first back up your entire hard drive, and create a Windows System Restore Point.
    Adobe Systems cannot be held responsible for damage resulting from your following these instructions.
    Make sure you are logged into a Windows Administrator account. If you are not, you will not be able to use SubInACL.
    Download SubInACL from the Microsoft Download Center.
    Follow the installation instructions. Make sure you install SubInACL (subinacl.exe) to the directory C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools.
    Download the reset_fp10.zip file.
    Open the fp10.zip file and extract the reset_fp10.cmd file to the directory C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\. Note that that both this file and SubInACL (subinacl.exe) must be in this directory.
    Double-click reset_fp10.cmd. A command window will open, and SubInACL will run.
    Do not use the machine while SubInACL is running.
    After SubInACL finishes, you will see a prompt "Press any key to continue".
    Install Flash Player from the Flash Player download page.
    To confirm that your installation succeeded, visit the About Flash Player page. At the top of the screen, you should see a message that reads "Adobe Flash Player Successfully Installed."

    I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player.  It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.

    You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
    Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html  and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • Flash Player Downloads to Firefox but not Safari--Why???

    For some unknown reason my Adobe Flash Player stopped working.  I followed all the instructions and managed to get the 10.3 Flash Player downloaded so that it would work with my Firefox browser. But when I tried to  use my Safari browser to access YouTube a message said that I'd have to install Adobe Flash Player..  So I followed the instructions again, and a message said that "installation ws successful" yet when I tried to see videos on YouTube with Safari it claimed that I had not installed the Flash Player.  I am using OS X5.8. The only
    change I made in my system was switching from Java 5.0 to Java 6.0.  Would that have any impact on the Flash Player installation?  Thank you very much for your help.

    After clicking Safari prompt box to "Download Flash..." , I'm linked to the Adobe Flash Player Download page. I click the "Download Now". The page advance to next page in the download process but then immediately goes black and nothing happens. System preferences firewall is off and apps are allowed from anywhere and in Safari other plug ins are allowed and cookies are not blocked and pop up windows are not blocked. Why won't Flash Player download?

    Don't DL Flash from web sites. If you have Adobe Flash installed it should be in System Preferences and you can find the latest version and download from there.
    If you are installing for the first time,this is where to DL it.

    Hello Angel8C,
    Your MacBook Air running Yosemite will need an updated version of the Flash Player plugin to play web content that is in the Flash format (not all video content is Flash; there is also HTML5 video, amongst others).
