Flash Player download won't launch

On http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ when I click on the download and install button the timer bar runs for a second or two as if downloading but then returns me to the download page and stops. I imagine that it should go into the install routine automatically but it doesn't. There are no instructions to suggest that the system is waiting for user input. I am using Explorer 6 on Win2K.
Any ideas? I have two applications that I need but which require Flash to operate. Help would be very much appreciated.

Download the offline ActiveX installer http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe; save it to disk, then close all browser windows and run the downloaded installer.

  • Flash player download won't pass integrity check

    I'm trying to update my flash player. I used the adobe 'remover', rebooted then tried to download version 10.0.45.2 but it won't pass the integrity check. I'm tried with firefox first (clicking the 'allow' notices) then tried with internet explorer. I disabled my firewall, avast anti-virus as well as my ad-aware before the attempt. Any suggestions? I currently have NO player at all

    Hi, you could refer to this thread that I posted instructions for FF and IE  regarding Flash Player.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/581376?tstart=0
    I would suggest that you read over the Uninstall instructions and with IE, pay particular attention to the last NOTE at the end of the article.
    If you have any questions before you start, just post back.

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.

  • Flash Player 9 Won't Install on MacOS X (Intel)

    I received an alert trying to open a video on MSN that I
    didn't have the Flash plugin installed (which I, in fact, did). I
    clicked the link to download the new Flash 9 and was re-directed to
    the Adobe Flash Player download page. I installed the player and it
    seemed to go fine. However, now I get error messages when opening
    pages containing Flash in Safari and Firefox stating that I don't
    have the Flash plugin installed. I tried installing the plugin from
    within Firefox, and it gives me a message every time stating that
    the "Install Failed". I have used the Un-Installer, restarted
    between un-installs and installs and I can't get the plugin to
    install whatever I do. Using MacBook Pro, MacOSX 10.4.9, Safari
    2.0.4, Firefox 2.0.0.3
    Can anyone help me out with this?
    Thanks.

    You can enable Root using the instructions at:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106290
    However, you shouldn't need to do this and doing so won't
    necessarily resolve any underlying problem which might be
    preventing you installing as desired. In the first instance, for
    Firefox, I'd look at the following tech doc:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/4aa64290
    For Safari, try removing the plug-ins for Flash in the
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder and try reinstalling afresh.
    If this fails for either Firefox and Safari, I'd check that
    there aren't any problems with the permissions on your startup disk
    using Disk Utility.
    Hope that helps! Let me know if not and I'll see what I can
    come up with.

  • Wll there be a flash player download for the ipad 2 at any point?

    Wll there be a flash player download for the ipad 2 at any point

    While no one can say with absolute certainty, at this time it appears to be highly unlikely that a version of Flash Player will ever appear for iOS. Adobe has said that they've given up work on a version for iOS, so unless they change their minds at some point, and can come up with a version that would meet Apple's criteria for performance, security and stability, then Kappy is correct that no, it won't happen.

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

    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.
