Flash Player not running/installing

So far, on two computers, I have had this problem.
I have no problem downloading the software, I even installed it on two computers.
However, when I go to install it on a few computers in my work environment, it will ask to run and not run.  I sat for ten minutes waiting for it to run and it wouldn't.  Both are XP's, sp3, 1GB, IE8.
Does anyone have any idea's?

Download offline installer: Where can I find direct downloads of Flash Player 11 for Windows or Macintosh?

  • FLASH PLAYER NOT RUNNING ON SECURED COMPUTER

    I
    believe my problem is similar to the one described here.
    We are running Windows Server 2003 with thin clients that RDP
    into the server. I have the latest version of Flash player
    installed on the server. I have administrative priviledges and I
    have no problems but for a secure user they get a message that the
    website requires the latest version of flash player. We have many
    websites we need to visit that have flash content and we can't. I
    assume that it is related to one of two things: 1) Flash player
    won't function without administrative priviledges [which would be
    absolutely stupid on Adobe's part if this is the case] or 2) there
    is a GPO setting preventing it from functioning. I think the latter
    is the correct problem. I am not farmiliar enough with the way
    Flash player operates so I need a little guidance finding the
    correct GPO - any ideas anyone?

    When I open Task Manager the only thing I see is "Tasks".  I do not see the Processes tab.  I have seen this in the past along with measures of other activity, but not anything now.  I tried the Start/Search - nothing about Processes.
    Once the Task Manager is running, select the Processes tab.  On older Windows version you may need to click on the Process Name or Image Name header to sort the process names.
    Now right-click on every process that the Flash Player installer needs to close (e.g. iexplore.exe), then select End Process.

  • Flash player not running in Firefox, even worse in IE

    I can't seem to be able to run the Flash player.  If I try to run a video on Adobe TV, I can see a normal video player with the buttons I would expect to see: Pay, Rewind, etc.  But nothing happens when I press Play.  I tried this same video using IE, but it looks even worse: I see nothing but a white box -- no controls at all.
    I'm running Windows 7, 64-bit.  I'm using the latest version of Firefox (3.6.11) and the latest version of Flash (10.1.85.3).  I almost never use IE, so I don't know whether I have the latest verion or not (8.0.7600).
    Suddenly and recently, I'm having an additional problem.  I don't know whether it could be related or not, but just in case:  I suddenly could not upload a file using Firefox.  I could, however, upload the same file using IE.  I've checked all my security settings in Windows, Firefox, and McAfee, but can't find anything which would block uploading.
    Another bit of info just in case: Windows stealthily installed Windows  Live.  When I started having the upload problems, I uninstalled Windows Live.
    Message was edited by: Rodieck to add additional information.

    I've found the problem, and it had noting to do with Flash.  All the problems were caused by me: somehow (and for some unknown reason) I had my security software set to block "Firefox Plugin Container" which was needed to run the Flash player.  Unblocking this also fixed my Firefox uploading program.
    Thanks for your reponse, though, helpful person whose name I cannot read :^) You started me learning more about video players, and that finally caused me to stumble across the right answer.

  • Flash player not run with Safari 5.0.4

    Hi Friends:
    Two days ago, I installed an upgrade of Safari to 5.0.4 (6533.20.27); since this upgrade, any web page that use flash player is not working, instead of the images appears a message "module not found" and in web pages like Facebook or Youtube, if you try to run video, the system show a message "It's necessary to update flash player". 
    I uninstalled flash player and installed it again using the last version provided by adobe ( 10.2.152.33 ) but after that the answer is the same.
    Any Ideas?

    Hi friends:
    I just find the problem and the solution.
    The problem is not Safari 5.0.4 in fact, the problem is that (I think) we installed at the same time the safari update and the java update; the java update installed a plug-in that interfere with the other ones in safari.
    you could solve the problem doing two things, one is left your java version in the near before the last one (it´s necessary to install OSX again) or move out the file JavaPluginCocoa.bundle located in HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    I prefer the first solution because I'm using SAPGui for java too and it´s not compatible with the las java version too.

  • Adobe flash player not running

    Hi, can anyone help? I have google chrome with latest version of adobe flash but I cant seem to run it. I cant open files that require adobe flash. Instead I get a blank page with a prompt to get adobe flash. When I click on the prompt, another message says I already have adobe flash installed but it has been disabled. I follow the step by step instructions given and confirm adobe flash is enabled but it still wont work. I've tried again and again and the same messages are still coming up. What could be the problem?
    Thanks

    Sorry, I do not understand "not verifying".  You do not need to purchase anything to download/install Flash Player.

  • Flash player not working, installed a few times now annoying

    On the 16th I used youtube fine, jumped on the net on the 17th of this month and went on the widows update and updated windows (I was wondering if this affected it) and I was told I needed to use the new version.
    So I follow the instructions and download the new version.
    Go back onto youtube and other various sites and it still says I need to have the latest version.
    I have checked the add ons and adobe is enabled but it still not working.
    I am using IE.
    Help please

    What Windows version and edition?
    What IE version?  IE9, do you have ActiveX Filtering enabled?

  • Resolve installed Flash player not excuted for all the Vista users on my PC?

    I have a Windows Vista 32-bits system.
    I have created 2 admin and 2 standard users.
    Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) 32 bit is installed but also Chrome and Firfox are used.
    For 1 admin user Flash works fine when accessing a site in IE9 that requires Flash.
    For the other users, including the admin user, IE9 must be run "as adminstrator" by specifically choosing that option.
    If not run "as administrator" IE9 states that Flash needs to be installed. That either leeds to Flash player not being installed (error is that it is already installed) or that after a succesful installation the problem simply occurs again (and again and again ...)
    I want the standard users on the pc to be able to navigate to trusted sites without running IE9 in "as adminstrator" mode.
    What do I need to do?
    Can I set Adobe Flash player to be available for all the users for Vista and IE9?
    Do I need to alter registry settings manually?
    If yes - how and which?
    Thanks in advance.

    Chris,
    Thanks for the reply but unfortunately it does not resolve the problem.
    Other users (including the other system administrator) still need to run IE as administrator.
    When in my sysadmin account the shortcuts for other users to a URL requiring Flash and using IE9 execute fine GRRRRRRR.
    This is very frustrating.
    On my pc Chrome aand Modzilla have no problems.
    The childrens protective software I have however is based on IE.
    Do you have any more suggestions?
    My alternative is to downgrade IE9 to IE8 or 7 but that is also not an easy exercise ...
    Thanks in advance for any input.

  • I do not think Flash Player 10 is installing properly.

    OS: Dual Booth Win XP and Vista 32bit
    System: Quad Core Dell Precision 3400
    Background:
        I recently had to format my machine and now I cannot get flash player to run properly.
    Problem/Error:
         I am a developer and I am having problems running the swf files outside of the Flash Professional CS4 IDE.  Inside the IDE I am able to run the swf file(s) with no errors at all.  I can even load the swf files into another swf and run them in the IDE. I can run them in the broswer (IE 8, FireFox, or Chrome) with no issue as well. When I try to run the swf using Flashplayer outside of the IDE and Browser I get following Error:
    VerifyError: Error #1033: Cpool entry "X" is wrong type.  -->  Where "X" can be any numeric value and changes frequently.
         I also believe I am having trouble installing flash player 10 because when I run a swf file, it will always puts "Adobe Flash Player 9" at the top in my title bar of the window. If I check my program files within control panel, it will so tell me Adobe Flash Player 9 -- and I have installed Flash Player 10.0.22.87 multiple times. I have also installed the flashplayer_10_ax_debug in hopes of solving my problem and have had no luck. I have also tried using the uninstall_flash_player download to install a fresh install of flash player 10.0.22.87 and have had with no luck as well. I do NOT receive any errors during install.
    If there is anything other information that I can provide you with that will help with troubleshooting please let me know.         

    Download the Windows Flash Player 10 Projector content debugger (EXE, 4.95 MB)
    Using the above link I was able to fix the problem.  It's the projector that I needed to update.

  • Flash Player Not Installing Properly?

    Hello, I am having trouble with Flash. I use Firefox (latest version), and was notified this morning that I needed to update my Flash version/plugin/whatever. I go to update, and it installed just fine (i.e. the install did not give me any error messages). However, I check the version on Adobe's site and the Firefox plugin checker, and it still not only says that I still need to update, but the Adobe website still says I have an old version.
    I tried uninstalling/reinstalling the whole Flash program, restarting my computer, and restarting my browser, but they still say that I need to update.
    So what is wrong/going on? Adobe's website is saying that Flash is running, and all websites (YouTube, various Flash-based games and items on art sites, Flash-based games, etc) that I suppose would run on Flash are running just fine, so why is Firefox saying I still need to update? Why is the Adobe site saying that I still have an old version?
    Here are some screenshots, if it helps explain my problem better:

    http://oi50.tinypic.com/wtvgub.jpg (The scrolling text says "Flash Player is running on your computer)

    EDIT: Also further information, this all started at about 8:30 AM on the East Coast. Also, I did try going to Adobe themselves for help, but the chat support was no help; they told me to use the phone support, which, OF COURSE, costs money that I do not have. Ha.
