Flash player is installed and up to date, but Safari refuses to register it.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled flash player multiple times, and in my preferences it's listed as version 11.1.102.55. Yet when I open Safari all I see is "Missing Plug-In" as though it isn't even on my computer. I'd rather not change browsers, as I haven't had this problem for almost a year until now.
On a Mac, it is installed in the Applications folder. You would either launch it from there the first time. Then I would add it to the dock.
If you're a Windows user, someone else will help you.

when I restart my PC again the video can work just first video, then when I see another website video it all black...... (but sound still work)
anyone can help me?Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.
See:
* https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Cannot+view+full+screen+Flash+videos
* http://www.youtube.com/swf_test.html (right-click the player: Settings)
Flash "Display settings" window:
* http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
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.

Why doesn't flash player stay installed and why does the saved file disappear.
Why doesn't flash player stay installed and why does the saved file disappear. I have downloaded and installed flash player several times on my Win7 Vaio laptop. I have uninstalled and deleted all versions. I am the administrator and I have also turned off my Security Software, but the same thing keeps happening over and over. The Java Script is enabled and I have tried both downloading via IE and firefox. It is rediculous that it keeps disappearing and I keep getting messages that the newest version is needed. I am downloading directly from adobe and they say it is the latest. Getting very frustrated. They ask if we have any problems when we go to the finish line, but there is no place for comments. I guess they don't really care if it works or not.
So is it actually installed, or is it not? If not, download and run the offline installers:
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
If it still does not work correctly, check

In Firefox also check if the Shockwave Flash plugin is enabled. -
I'm on a Mac, 10.8.5
I am trying to watch video streams but every few minutes the tab switches to a flash popup that says I have to install flash to view the page. I installed it and it is all up to date but it keeps doing this over and over and over and over.
Why is Adobe doing this and what do I need to do to make it stop? It's extremely annoying and so far customer service has been absolutely useless despite the so-called support promise they have.
Someone please help with this problem...Also if there is a link I can use for one of those instant message chat supports (if Adobe offers that) can someone put it here? I keep following prompts on the website that look like they're sending you to someone who can help but all they do is send your in circles. I think Adobe should re-think that "promise" for support since even their phone lines don't have any option for Flash support or even an email address. Absolutely NOT a good company for customer support, that's for sure.
Thanks to anyone who may be able to help me, hopefully someone in the community will be better help than I've received so far! -
Firefox can't accept that my laptop has now installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player - the plug-in states it is out-of-date & numbers the old one. Ive tried all ways to rectify this but nothing works... Fox still states that I have to update it...
Thank you for your interest. I'd been into the getadobe.com address & downloaded it successfully on IE. The problem had been that it hadnt altered the update on Firefox plug-in. I typed-in your link from Firefox, then it came-up on IE. So I went through the motions to download again & the tab stated it was going to be to IE. So I came out - opened-up Firefox again & got onto getadobe.com again, but on Firefox - downloaded it & it worked.... The plug-in check confirmed it'd updated to latest version.
So thank you, TonyE, if you hadnt responded, I wouldnt have realised that I'd to download whilst on the Firefox browser. -
The subject is the question. Files with flv extensions cannot be run or identified. Other software that uses flash player such as Rhapsody, can't find or use it either. It feels like a registry problem. Please do not waste time suggesting I uninstall and reinstall flash player as I have done than several times with no improvement or solution.
Flash Player is a plugin, and typically used by browsers (and sometimes other software.) Flash, by itself, won't open flv files. Instead you'd load those files into your web browser and it would load Flash to render them.
I don't know if Rhapsody uses the ActiveX or NPAPI versions of Flash Player. Which do you have installed? You can check this by going into the Programs and Features control panel and looking for the Adobe Flash Player entry(s). It'll say NPAPI, PPAPI, or ActiveX at the end. -

Auto-checking if Flash player is installed and loading other page if not
Hi,
can someone tell me if it's possible and if yes what the
script is and
where to put it in order to:
have the browser check upon loading page X to see if the
user's computer has Flash player installed. If answer is "no", then
browser loads page Y instead of page X.
Thanks
PeterYou can detect the Flash player (and version) with javascript
and redirect or change the visibility of DOM objects based on the
detection results.
I believe that SWFObject has this functionality built in by
default:
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/
Dreamweaver also has a pre-built behavior to do this.
Behaviors panel: click the plus button and select "Check Plugin",
select "Flash" from the drop-down list at the top and fill in the 2
URLs. Presto! -
Flash Player is installed and enabled. Getting message it is not installed.
I have uninstalled FP and Java. Reinstalled and enabled BOTH. Turned off my firewall and my security system before I installed both. When I test FP it says it is not installed and to DL. When I try youtube same message. But when I check my system, the program is installed. What do I do at this point?
What OS?
What browser? -

CONFUSED?? I have Flash Player 9 installed, and have checked
this out on this website (all fine!)..... When I try to get on some
websites, it tells me that I have Flash Player 9, but it will still
not display the web page!?
PLEASE HELP!?!Similar problem -- but using IE7RC1 - no swf files would
play. Finally used the uninstaller for Version 9, found on Adobe
site, and all worked fine. Apparently Flash Player version 9 has
some issues with Microsoft (or is it the other way around) that
causes it to not work. If you go back to previous version of Flash
Player (the swf file I was trying to play was using version 7
something) you just may find that all is now well. I've posted on
the Microsoft IE7 site same findings since a lot of other people
out there seem to be having the same problem with Flash Player.
Hope this helps you fix the problem. -

I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now. HELP!!!
Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually. -
"Install Adobe Flash Player" is damaged and can't be opened
The subject line of this discussion is what is displayed when I go to try to install Adobe Flash. I have a Mac OS X 10.9.3. I had Flash downloaded for a while, but the last update wouldn't update. It would download, but then when I went to open it it would say "Retrieving Install" and the meter would remain at 0%. It never went a step beyond that. After trying many times, per the instructions of the website, I deleted Flash from my computer using the Adobe uninstaller downloaded from this site. Now that I am trying to reinstall Flash I keep getting the message "'Install Adobe Flash Player' is damaged and can't be opened. You should eject the disk image". What should I do from here? I would appreciate any help!
You should make sure you do a complete uninstall of the flash player first and then install the latest FP14 version from this link - Use http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_osx.dm g
In order to do a complete uninstall - Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS
