Flash Player issues with Windows 8 / IE 10

I cant get this to work and I've tried every link. Even going to the download flashplayer site, it comes up blank. It says it's already installed but i have several sites that I cannot get onto and asks me to update flash player. I've enabled the Add On, I've fixed the security, I've hit every link, update, that is suggested on here and google. It's still not working. Any help would be very appreciated!

Specifically abcmouse.com and candy crush on facebook.
When I click on the Flash Player Version - none of the boxes show I have flash player capabilities (all blank).
And that second link....that's my problem, when I click on that one it says Flash Player is embedded into Windows 8 and I cannot manually install. Yet, the video on that same link says I do not have Flash Player, and click this link to install. When I click the link to install, I get the Adobe page, and no info. Blank page (see attached picture).

  • Flash Player Issue with Windows 8.1 Professional

    Hi guys,
    I'm currently having issues with Flash Player on Internet Explorer 11 in Windows 8.1. It seems that the Flash Player has been disabled when I access http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html.
    However, when I logged off the my domain account and use my local account, I'm able to test Flash Player.
    Therefore, the only thing I can think of is the Group Policy that is blocking the Flash Player as I've resetted IE settings on my domain account.
    Hopefully you guys are able to solve this mystery.
    Thanks!!

    Go to control panel and go to program and features and uninstall existing adobe player
    and adobe flash player activex both....
    Then select windows 8 and flash player  from here http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Install and check..

  • Flash Player integrated with Windows 8 has stopped working...can't seem to upgrade to newer version Flash Player ?

    One day watched videos with no problem.  Next day, can't watch videos!  Site says I need Flash 10.0 or higher.  When I try to check what version I have, it says that Flash player is integrated with Windows 8, no need to install Flash Player.  I am thinking that there are newer versions of Flash Player than what is integrated with Windows 8, but it's like I'm going around in circles, can't seem to upgrade to a newer version.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • Flash player issues with system recognizing it's installed - all versions

    I am running a Vista 64-bit computer.I seem to have had lots of trouble with Adobe Flash Player being recognized by various sites (and have the same issues with other computers running both XP and Windows 7). I've downloaded, I've clicked install, it shows in the computer but the sites keep asking me to download. I downloaded 11 recently, which didn't help and later found out that it doesn't support Vista 64 bit, even though I've had Vista 64 bit for 3 1/2 years! Anyway, I uninstalled 11 and found a download for 10 and put it back to that but it still doesn't help.For example, I was looking at patterns on michaels.com and I got the message to install Flash.
    Again, I have FP 10 installed (now) and would like to know if there are additional steps to take in order to get sites to recognize it is installed. Additionally, I am curious as to the short-sitedness of Adobe NOT to provide Flash Player for 64 bit Vista machines. Because Microsoft charges crazy amounts to upgrade OS, it is unlikely that I'll upgrade to Win 7 anytime soon. And since the product (Vista x64) has been around for many years, why is it treated as though it doesn't exist?

    Exactly same issue here.

  • Newest Version of Flash Player Issues With Firefox 12.0

    Firefox just updated today to its newest version 12.0. After updating, every website was running slow or freezing. I eventually discovered that the culprit was the Adobe Flash Player Plugin. Disabling the plugin returned things to normal. I would like to still use the flash plug in, but have not found a way to enable it without all websites freezing. I am using a Windows 7 64-bit operating system. I have tired uninstalling and reinstalling the flash player and I have double checked that I am using the newest version of Flash Player. I have cleared the Flash Player cache, tried disabling the hardware acceleration option, and restarted my computer inbetween several times. I am offically at a loss for what to do? Please help me.

    In your  opinion, should I uninstall Firefox if I am installing Waterfox?
    Waterfox can coexist peacefully with Waterfox.  I have both installed, but never use Firefox any more.
    Not only can Waterfox run in 64-bit address space, it also is better optimized during compile time than Firefox.  (For obvious reasons; Firefox is compatible with many old systems, Waterfox only needs to be compatible with new 64-bit systems.)
    P.S. regarding Chris' advice above; Firefox and Waterfox use the same profile, so if that is actually the problem, then it will occur in both browsers.

  • WHY is it that you cannot fix (completely so you never have to come back to it again) how adobe flash player works with windows 8.1?

    Hi,
    I would like to start a discussion on how one of the "leading" software companies in the WORLD cannot provide a better way for their software (which I assume they want everyone to use) to be used in conjunction with windows 8.1.   ADOBE no longer provides support for those who don't pay to be here, they don't have a reasonably intelligent way to fix problems for non computer minded people, they want you to go through and change this setting or that (ya, I've seen the page and done the crap they tell you to do to fix the flash player so it works and... it works... for a little while then you wind up with a fkn green screen after another day or two... this is complete BS you shouldn't have to unfk things so they work every few days... you shouldn't have to deal with crap like this... I AM GOING TO USE VLC PLAYER OR SOMETHING ELSE TO TAKE CARE OF MY VIDEO PLAYER NEEDS IN MY DIFFERENT BROWSERS FROM NOW ON... YOU GUYS SUCK, YOU HAVE NO SUCH THING AS SUPPORT ANYMORE AND YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY MOVING BACK INSTEAD OF FORWARD IN THE INNOVATION DEPARTMENT!!!!)
    1.  this should be simple, install the software, install an update if the software is installed and up to date it should work... don't make me fiddle with all the extra bs, your the software developer why cant' you do that????
    2.  you tried to make it easier by making it so flash player is imbedded in my browser, congratulations you made it screwed up... think of it this way, now I have to get rid of your software to have something malleable I can deal with... your software doesn't work half the time, i'm sick and tired of dealing with it... i'm not going to deal with it anymore, I have changed the settings as directed on your help page and it worked.... for a freakin DAY, then I get green screens when I try to use it the very next day... so... I undo the changes I made the previous day... and redo the changes AGAIN and it works AGAIN.... FOR A FKN DAY!!!  WTFO!!!! this is complete and total bs, your idea to make things simpler made things more complicated, more labor intensive, and more of a pain in the azz for the rest of the world... SO I am going to find a way to not have to deal with ADOBE anymore!!! screw you adobe, screw your software, screw your lack of support.  you have nothing to offer me that I cannot get elsewhere with less drama, I hope your business crashes like your software... have a nice day!

    One of my programs needed Flash Player and downloaded it for me!  So, Problem solved.  Thanks to all who are reading this.  I would delete it if I could. 

  • Flash Player Issues with Lion

    Has anyone else had issues with flash player after downloading Lion? for some reason after i got lion and i go to facebook to take a picture with my webcam or if i go to a video chat website it pops up the screen that asks to allow the website to connect to the webcam but it is not clickable. i have only had this problem after i got lion does anyone know how to fix this or if it is a problem with my laptop not the program.

    I believe I had a similar issue as well. I'd check Adobe's website for an updated version of Flash. If that still doesn't fix it, it's likely because Flash actually does not yet support Lion (or at least not the last time I looked).

  • Flash Player issues with BBC Weather Map

    I am using Flash Player 16.0.0.235 on Windows 7 via Internet Explorer 32-bit
    I keep losing the information on the BBC Weather Maps.
    The maps load but then freeze before the weather information is displayed.  The bar shows it is trying to load but nothing happens.
    I have tested & Adobe Flash Player is working correctly on my laptop.
    Tried shutting down & rebooting but no change.
    Any ideas?

  • How do I disable the hardware acceleration in Flash player on a Windows XP machine remotely?

    How do I disable the hardware acceleration in Flash player on a Windows XP machine remotely?
    I have a few hundred computers running Adobe Flash Player.
    The operation system is Windows XP.
    They are Compaq 6005 desktop PC’s, with an inbuilt ATI radeon HD 4200 video card.
    We have a persistent issue where viewing a flash video (e.g. something on youtube) causes the video card driver to crash.  You are left with no video signal to the monitor.  Audio continues and the computer still responds to commands. This only happens when watching flash video.
    We have tried:
    Updating flash plugin (numerous versions)
    Updating the video card drivers (we have tried the last three video card driver versions, including the HP drivers and ATI drivers)
    Updating the browsers (this problem happens with IE8/9 and Firefox10/11/12)
    There seems to be two ways to work round this issue.  One is to disable the video acceleration in the ‘troubleshoot’ section in the advanced part of the display settings area in windows.  The other way is to start a flash video, right click, go to ‘settings’ and untick the box marked ‘Enable Hardware Acceleration’.
    Doing either of these things allows the user to view flash videos with no apparent issues.
    Is there a way to disable the hardware acceleration in Flash without visiting the PC?  Perhaps an undocumented option in the mms.cfg file? I understand that you can use an option to skip the video card check, and so force hardware acceleration on, can you do the opposite?
    Thanks in advance
    Daniel.

    Hi.
    I have had over 200 views, and no suggestions as to how this could be fixed.
    I have also posted in the general flash forum, that thread has fewer views.
    If I should put this question in a different forum please let me know which one.
    If what I am asking is not possible is there a mechanism for escalating this issue or requesting a feature for the next version of flash?
    Thanks.

  • Flash Player 10.1 + Window printing in IE

    Hi,
    We have a web application that uses a third party flah elements (Fussion Charts). And we display several charts and some texts and use the "window.prin()" system to print these pages and use them as briefings.
    We normally use this ovet IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox and Chrome.
    We have detected an error when using MS browsers (IE6, IE7 & IE8) with the latest Flash Player version : 10,1,53,64.
    Since we updated to that version, when we print the page via "window.print()" menu, the flash objects are not displayed at its original size but the flash elements are very small... tiny.
    I've tried printing other pages wieh flah in them (Even the Adobe web page) and I have the same result... Flash elements are printed tiny and not at the configured size.
    This is happening since we updated to 10.1.53.64, we have some PCs with version 10,0,22,87 installed and the printings works fine.
    Is this a 10.1 version Bug??
    please help!
    Thanks in advance!!,
    Arman

    Yes,  I was able get my hand on an earlier release of flash and it works
    correclty so it is definitely an issue with the lastest release.
    We are having users install a earlier release until the issue is fixed.
    Thanks for the information.

  • Installing Flash Player Issues

    I have a Windows 8 Operating Sysytem and I use IE version 8. I have downloaded the latest flash player numerous times and it continues not to work. So can someone please help me install it?????? Thanks in advance

    If you have Windows 8, you CANNOT use IE 8, because Windows 8 comes with IE 10 preinstalled and it WON'T accept a lower version.
    In addition, Flash Player for IE in Windows 8 is modified and embedded by Microsoft. It's "their baby" so to speak. It can ONLY be updated through Windows Update (in your Control Panel under System and Security).
    Microsoft released a "Tuesday patch" November 12 to update Flash Player for IE10 and IE11 in Windows 8 and 8.1.
    If you run the update and still have problems, see: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html for more steps to take.

  • How do I prevent Adobe Website attempt to install Flash Player which freezes Windows e-mail browser.

    For past several days, my Windows e-mail browser frequently freezes and must be closed. This occurs whenever message near top of browser states that Adobe website wants to install Adobe Flashplayer. Windows explanation states that termination is a result of Data Execution Prevention (DEP). How do I stop Adobe Website attempts to install Flash Player, or if that is not possible, what is a solution? I have uninstalled Flash Player in an attempt to resolve problem without success.

    You can find a link and instructions for the last version of Flash Player compatible with PowerPC in this FAQ:
    What version of Flash Player should I use with my Power PC based Mac?
    For what it's worth, Apple itself discontinued support for PowerPC with their operating systems back in 2009 with the release of Snow Leopard.  Regardless, I know its frustrating when your system is no longer supported.  Hopefully the instructions I posted in the FAQ allow you to get Flash content running again.

  • Flash Player 9 And Windows 98

    I am current having a problem wwith flash player 9 under
    windows 98. It seem that when I visit a site that uses Flash player
    that Flash keeps using more and more of the system memory to the
    point that the system resources will be exhausted, causing the PC
    to slow and stop functioning properly. Once either all instances of
    IE or Firefox are closed the resources are returned and my PC
    operates "normally" again. Depending upon which web sites are
    visited this problem can occour after as little as 5-10 minutes.
    Returning to flash player 8 removed this problem. Are they any
    known confiliction under windows 98 when using flash player 9?
    Any help with this problem would be greatly
    appreciated.

    well I managed to generate some good news. I attempted
    installing the version 9 again and it didn't work so I went
    throught the install list and located the subdirectory it was
    attempting to ubsuccessfully install into and deleted the entire
    subdirectory and reinstalled again. this time it correctly
    installed version 9 and when I rebooted and ran the version checker
    it finally responded with the correct version 9 within the correct
    oS win 98. I think what had happened is I accidently clicked the
    uopgrade icon and it overwrote version 9 with version 10 and
    wouldn't allow me to rewrite the version 9 back into its original
    location. anyways it is now working and I'll know better that to
    authorize a version upgrade on the 98 system.
