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 working on new computer

I just purchased a new computer; HP Pavilion 23-g010 All-in-One. 64 bit Windows 8.1 When I try to play my games on facebook it says that I need to install Adobe Flash Player. When I follow the prompts the computer shows a pop up that says it's already installed. I check all your trouble shooting requests and none of them work as the computer pop up continues to say that it is not needed eg; updates. Active x is ok. What should I try next? Thanks for any input.

if you are running Internet Explorer 9, please see this post( it may pertain to your situation):

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?

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.

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:

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.

Repeatedly, this error code suddenly appears on the screen and I don't have a clue what it means or what to do: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?
No Yes"

Hi,
Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
A web page can include javascript.
Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

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.

How can I get Adobe Flash Player to install on my computer

I just sent in a question regarding installing Adobe Flash Player on my computer. In fact, I did it twice. I do not understand how this discussion section works?

Thanks so much for your answer to my first question.
I have Windows 7 and use the Microsoft Internet Explorer.
I do not have any version of Adobe Flash Player on my computer. I recently received a message from Kaspersky Security that there was a problem with my Adobe Flash Player. I then uninstalled the Flash Player that was on my computer. I don't know what version that was.
Now, I am trying to download another version of Adobe Flash Player on my computer. When I hit the install prompt, I am unable to hit run as a pop-up message comes across the bottom of my screen which asks me if I want to open or save. When trying either of these options, I get an error message that says the attempt has failed.
I tried to work through the help section on Adobe.com today. I tried to go into tools and change the settings it suggested. This also failed.
Now, I don't know where to go from there?

How do i set up flash player to run only the audio files

How do I set up the flash player to run only audio files? Every time i set up I tunes to work,, the flash player takes over all files that it wants and I cannont see my files for work. I want it to only auto run audio files and not my GIF's, & TIFF files.

Well I had a terrible brain burp!,, I ment to say Quick Time. In my business I have to go back at times and view TIFF files. Every since I installed ITunes on my new computer... Quick Time opens the files where MS Photo Viewer used to, and I can only see page 1 in Quick Time. This is a problem for me as the only way I can view my TIFF files is to save them to my desk top and then open them in MS Photo Viewer. Then I have to delete them after viewing.. I view files several times a day and this extra step has become a very larg pain in the fanny.
Thanks

Flash player not showing up in start menue?

installed version 11 7 700 202 on new computer running windows 7 and internet explorer. Installations said complete, but the program does not show up in the start menue and does not activate when trying to view videos, sometimes getting the message that I do not have flashplayer plugin downloaded? On the adobe help site the find version help tool displays that "flash player is running on your system" by showing the movie of that text and a red ball. So what the heck is going on. I have restarted the computer a couple time too?

Flash Player is only a browser add-on, not an executable program, so it won't appear in the Start menu.
Regarding Internet Explorer, a couple of possibilities
