  • Trying to install Flash Player 11 and it times out everytime

    Why is Flash Player install timing out at 7% every time I try to install it? I have even tried getting it from mirror sites and it still times out at 7% on the install panel.

  • Flash player audio and vidio out of sync

    flash player audio and vidio out of sync. audio lags 2 seconds behind vidio. this is a flash player or silverlighr problem. please help.

    A lot of times it's in the video itself. A great example of it is "Tarantula", a 1955 "B" horror movie, on YouTube. About twenty minutes inti the film the audio suddenly drops about eight seconds behind the video. This happens when a video converter (software) requires more processor or RAM than the system converting it has available.
    If it only happens with certain videos, it' what I've described above and there's really nothing that can be done about it.
    If it happens with ALL videos you're watching, try right clicking, choosing "Settings", and under the far left tab, "Enable hardware acceleration"

  • Flash Player installation and update questions and answers

    How do I verify that I have the latest version of Flash Player?
    If you receive a message that tells you that Flash Player is out of date or a new version of Flash Player is available, you can verify this by visiting the Flash Player Help page with your browser.
    Simply click the "Check Now" button and you'll be presented with a short message and detailed information regarding your Flash Player installation.
    Where should I download the latest version of Flash Player?
    Because malware authors will often employ misleading tactics to make malware look like something you should trust, it's important to get your Flash Player updates directly from Adobe.
    Please verify that your Flash Player downloads and updates come from only the adobe.com or macromedia.com domains.  You can always download the latest version of Flash Player directly from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    I've selected the automatic update option in Flash Player, why do I continue to get update notifications?
    Periodically, users are presented with the Flash Player update dialog notifying them that a new version of Flash Player is available for download from adobe.com.
    The automatic update mechanism is used for some updates, security patches that address zero-day vulnerabilities and when users, who have selected to be updated automatically, have not updated within 45 days after a regularly scheduled update release of Flash Player.
    What should I expect when I receive notification that Flash Player has an update available?
    When a major update to Flash Player becomes available you will be presented with a Flash Player update dialog
    After reviewing new features, pressing the Download button will open your default browser and load the Install Adobe Flash Player page.
    Clicking the "Update now" or "Install Now" button will then take you to the next page which will start the download process and give instructions for completing the Flash Player install.
    Finally, once the installation is complete your browser will display a page confirming a successful installation.
    If you encounter installation problems, we recommend you review our Windows and Mac OS installation help documents. Further questions and information can be found on the Flash Player installation forums.
    Why does Adobe Flash Player installer include the option to download additional software?
    Adobe offsets the ongoing development costs of Flash Player, which is made available for free, by offering users the option to download select software from Adobe partners.
    What options do I have when installing or updating Flash Player?
    You have a few different options available when updating Flash Player. We recommend that you choose "Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)" when initially setting up Flash Player
    or by going into the Flash Player control panel and choosing this option in the Advanced tab.
    Once selected, most updates will occur in the background without requiring any interaction. For those regularly scheduled major update releases, you will be presented with an update notification dialog
    If you decide not to update, you will receive an automatic update within 45 days if you have the "Allow Adobe to install updates" option selected. Please note that when this update occurs, only Flash Player will be installed.
    If you want to be notified about every Flash Player update, select "Notify me to install updates" when initially installing Flash Player or from the Advanced tab in the Flash Player control panel.
    Finally, if you'd prefer not to receive any updates, select "Never check for updates (not recommended)". We do not recommend this option as we believe keeping your system up to date improves both security and stability when using Flash Player.
    For network Administrators we offer additional update options, including the ability to host your own internal Flash Player update server. Please see our Flash Player distribution page and Flash Player Administrator guide for details.

    Sunil, I just want to verify you are pointing me to the link under "Progress bar hangs during download / Unable to connect to server / Unable to download metafile."
    If yes, then that is the file I originally downloaded based on a March post I saw here.
    I just tried it again, and it (by "it" I mean the Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers from download.macromedia.com) installed 11.6.
    After the installation process completed, the dialog box notified me it was version 11.6, and when I went back to, the "find version" page, 11.6 was confirmed.
    I did not download the exe for Internet Explorer, as I almost never use that browser.

    How can I get serial numbers or the free versions of Adobe, Air, Flash Player 14, and Reader XI Pro that I had installed on my computer before Microsoft crashed my computer and I had to do a fresh install? I finished reinstalling Win 8.1Pro on my computer thanks to Microsoft Lvl 1 Techies corrupting my Command Structure so nothing would work.

  • Work-around for flash player hangs/freezes during initialisation...

    Hello all,
    Are you also facing the problem that the flash player hangs/freezes during execution of an xcelsius file? Try if the following work-around works also for you.
    I am (was) facing the same problem: a swf file about 1474 kb with many components, generated with Xcelsius 5.3.2.0., trying to view with flash player 10.1.82.76. Did also hang/freezed! The file was originally build with version 5.3.0 and worked o.k. then...
    The work-around which works for me is the following: I had all my components organized in groups. After ungrouping them all (which I think is a major drawback) and exporting it to swf, the report works! File size is more or less the same...
    Maybe you can give this work-around a try for your own work....
    So I think the SAP/Adobe bug has something to do with grouping of components or grouped components build in an earlier version of Xcelsius 2008... The following test that I will perform is ungrouping the components and then re-grouping them again in version 5.3.2.0....
    Greetings
    Erik-Jan Vriens

    Thank you for sharing this. Had a similar problem before and did some tinkering around with the file and all of a sudden it worked again. Fair bet it was exactly that as well.
    In general Xcelsius performance goes down the drain if you start using many components. It is to be expected, somewhat, I guess. Various bugs also pop up because components do not always seem to play nice.
    One thing I have found as well is that if you are doing a waterfall approach of constructing with a bunch of iterations in the implementation phase, you may end up with a bunch of components that were there early on. Sometimes they start messing up over time, because you've been playing with the data below or with the chart itself. E.g. on line charts label start distorting, or the frames flicker. In radiobutton boxes the boxes are not aligned properly. Checkbox labels are clipped at the end until you hover over them etc..
    Solution: remove the components, add anew. If not too many components with a tough spreadsheet below, export Excel, start a new.

  • Intermittant problems with Flash Player 7 and 8

    Good morning,
    While "stress testing" a recent Captivate 2 generated quiz
    lesson, one of our testers noticed some odd behavior. (Granted,
    most students will not do the following actions, but I thought I'd
    mention it anyway.)
    First let me add that we use a LMS and that this behavior
    might have something to do with the LMS, but I suspect the problem
    might be in how Flash Player 7 and 8 handle viewing a SWF file.
    The tester would start the quiz, answer a few questions, then
    close the session (before the conclusion of the quiz). The tester
    (student) would then (through the LMS) go to the quiz/lesson link
    and begin again. The Quiz behaviors are that the student can't go
    back to any question they have already answered. In theory the
    student would go back to the next unanswered question and continue
    with the quiz.
    The first time this is done, everything appears to work well.
    However, if the same student behavior is done again, when the
    quiz/lesson is re-launched the student is taken to the very first
    slide, not the one where they left off. If they go to the first
    question slide they will find that it appears to be unanswered. The
    student then tries to answer it and nothing happens, nore can the
    student move to the next question. They are "stalled" and can go no
    further. Any subsequent attempt to re-enter the quiz produces the
    same effect. Additionally, if this is done without restarting the
    computer the browser (Internet Explorer) will hang and they'll need
    to stop the process.
    I found that in Captivate 2 you have 3 options for building a
    solotion when you publish a project. You can publish using Flash
    Player 6, 7 or 8. Only by selecting Flash Player 6 does this
    behavior stop. The Flash Player 6 selection seems to work well.
    Anyone else had problems with FlashPlayer 7 and 8?

    Flash Player 11 sends the getServerVersion request in order to determine the capabilities of the Flash Access license server. If you are running a 2.0 server, it should return an HTTP 404 error, since it does not support this endpoint. The client understands that to mean it is communicating with a Flash Access 2.0 server, and will send the license request accordingly. In other words, the fact that your 2.0 server does not support getServerVersion should not cause the license acquisition to fail.
    Is your server responding to the getServerVersion request with a 404? After the getServerVersion request arrives at your server, you should see another request asking for a license. In your server logs, do you see any errors in the license request processing?

  • A mic doesn't work. Adobe Flash Player camera and microphone exceptions are different. Please, help!

    Hello!

Both variants don't help. On the right end of an address bar I read this message: "this page has been blocked from accessing your camera and microphone". I clicked it, chose "Allow", after reloading the problem returns. Then I went to Chrome exceptions and allowed my mic on the site.
    In Chrome exceptions menu I read this: "Adobe Flash Player camera and microphone exceptions are different". Though I chose "Allow" in Chrome I can't do it Fllash Player. I did all the instructions which are given to solve audio problems, but it didn’t help. I also wanted to allow excess for my mic on “Website Privacy Settings Panel”, but I can’t find https://plus.google.com in the list to allow (attach a screenshot). I’m out of ideas what else to do.

  • Do Flash Player runtime and AIR runtime work differently?

    This question is asked as a follow up from a recent discussion, http://forums.adobe.com/message/6260447#6260447, regarding how getObjectsUnderPoint() works. The discussion was marked as correct as the answer provided by kglad was correct for the question asked.
    But, the problem that led to that thread was not solved, as from the tests done, the issue was not from the method but from the runtimes. With the sample code given by kglad, the compiled swf file was working as intended by kglad. But the same code was not if compiled and packaged to AIR runtime.
    Thus the question, do Flash Player runtime and AIR runtime work differently? Or again, that I simply missed out something?
    *Edit: Anyone with similiar experience?

    I'm also using Safari 6.0.1 and I don't have this problem, so I doubt Safari's causing the problem.
    Have you tried uninstalling flash completely and then reinstall? If you haven't, here's Adobe's instructions on how to do so: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
    Once you've uninstalled it, try redownloading and reinstalling again: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

  • To Bentley Wolfe, Adobe, re: Locked [ADOBE FYI] : Getting Support for Flash Player 10 and Issue Tracking post

    Hi Bentley,
    I wanted to tell you that an important link you posted does
    not work and says "Sorry, this page is not available".
    It is in your post entitled "Locked [ADOBE FYI] : Getting
    Support for Flash Player 10 and Issue Tracking post", and is at
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfmforumid=44&catid=184&threadid= 1400586&enterthread=y.
    The link that is non-functional is "If you have issues

    I just wanted you to know, since you have gone to all of the
    effort of posting it. I apologize for having to start a new thread,
    but I was unable to post to your thread, since it is locked and

    Hi Bentley,
    I just noticed something. The link that I pasted, to your
    post, does not work either. I noticed why, however, and it seems to
    be why the link in your original page does not work, and why the
    link in my post that goes to your post does not work.
    It seems to be that if a link has a period after it (i.e., if
    it is at the end of a sentence), the period is incorrectly included
    in the "real" link. Somehow, whatever mechanism that processes the
    post has a mini bug in it.
    If you go to the link that is results in "Sorry, this page is
    not available", and look up into the browser address bar, you will
    see the period there each time.
    I just thought that I would point this out, too, so that the
    web techs in charge of the workings of the forums could look into
    it.
    Here is the original link, without a period after it, to your
    original page.

  • Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser

    Having issues with Adobe Flash player hanging the browser.
    WIN 7 enterprise 32 bit / Firefox 19.0.2 /
    Internal company website keeps giving attached screen shot error, and hangs the browser when error pops up.
    Steps taken:
    Uninstalled Adobe Flash player with the file “uninstall_flash_player.exe”
    Deleted provided directory in instructions
    "Copy and paste the following and click OK.
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash        
    Delete all the files in this folder."
    Rebooted PC and reinstalled the flash player directly from “http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html”
    Re launched company website and received same error.
    Repeated above steps as well as uninstalled Firefox browser.  Even went so far as to remove all profile information to start fresh from all profiles on the laptop with the same results.
    Note: The web page will work without the flash player plugin, and my page doesn’t hang the browser. Required to open page in FireFox per company policy.

    I'm sorry you're encountering this.  Could you paste a few of the most recent report ID links displayed when you go to "about:crashes" in the Firefox address bar?
    As for workarounds, the first thing I'd suggest is trying our 11.7 labs release which you can get here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer.html
    If that doesn't help, please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:
    How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
    In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.

  • Adobe flash Player 12 and Silverlight update

    Hi:
    I recently updated to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (12) and Silverlight. Adobe is still saying it needs to be updated and won't let me run anything that needs it. My school e-mail uses the silverlight portion of this and crashes Safari.
    How do I fix this?

    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, 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.

  • Do you need to use Actionscript 3 code in Flash player 9 and above?

    Can anyone tell me if I need to use Actionscript 3 code instead of Actionscript 2 code in the following situation:
    I am running a swf file which is contained in a browser window (all files are contained on a CD and I have a 'trust' file set up to let them play properly).  Up until now, I have been using the following Actionscript 2 code to close the browser window (the Actionscript 2 code is on an 'Exit' button within the swf):
    on (release) {
    getURL("javascript:window.close()");
    This Actionscript 2 code has always worked and still works in Flash player 8 and lower.  However, it does nothing when played using Flash player 9.  Can anyone tell me if Flash player 9 won't recognize Actionscript 2 code?  Is it essential to use ONLY Actionscript 3 code if you are using Flash player 9?
    I am having the same problem when I try to launch another html page containing a swf (popped up from the swf contained in the main html window).  I have the following code on the button to launch the popup html window.  It always worked, but suddenly no longer works with Flash player 9.  Here is the code I am using:
    on (release) {
                getURL("javascript:launchWin2('webpage2.html');");
    I have all the necessary background code to launch 'webpage2.html'.  It works everywhere except in Flash player 9.  Can anyone tell me if it is essential to use Actionscript 3 code ONLY on these buttons in Flash player 9?  I am pretty new to Actionscript 3, so any help with syntax would be appreciated. 
    Please note that I don't want to use the projector.
    Thanks!

    You can use both AS2 and AS3 based applications in both Flash 9 and 10.

    The first time that you posted, you described your problem. The next post after that is #1 and so on.

  • Need flash player 8 and java script enabled to play videos on ipad, need help please.

    need flash player 8 and java script enabled on my ipad in order to view videos.  please help.

    iPads do not directly support Flash.
    You can look for Flash Browsers in the App store for some options to try. Support is not 100%, but maybe one may work for you.  Browsers like Puffin, Skyfire, Photon etc...
    IPads do fully support JavaScript.  Just make sure its turned on under Settings->Safari->Advanced->JavaScript.
    If you require Java, which is completely different to JavaScript, again there are some browsers in the App store that support it.  Search for "Java browsers" in the store.

Maybe you are looking for
