Flash player not working in IE7

I'm not sure why this is happening but recently the flash
player stopped woring with some instances of flash content but not
others. For instance, I can't view the flash content on the
Adobe.com home page but if I go to the Adobe Studio home page the
flash content works just fine. I have no idea what's causing this
problem or where to begin fixing it. I can't even view teh Flash
Player advanced settings because they require flash. Anyone else
having trouble like this with IE7?

Chris,
I agree that system configurations and installed software
differences are likely culprits. Last week I upgraded my laptop
from IE6 to IE7, shutting down all apps and disabling virus and
spyware stuff. No problems seeing Flash player stuff.
However, Monday morning I got a pop-up message on my desktop
from Microsoft that an important upgrade was waiting... click here
to install upgrade. Not knowing why the "auto update" feature
didn't kick in, I did the sheep thing and just followed
instructions - "click to upgrade". I had several programs open on
my desktop (PhotoShop, Flash 8, MS Office, 3 browsers, etc), along
with my "High" security level of virus suite protection. Then I
discovered I was upgrading to IE7 - not what I wanted to do just
then, but oh well.
When the upgrade was completed, I discovered some sites did
not display Flash content! Now, I have no idea which of the 95
processes shown in the Task Manager could have been responsible,
but I doubt that it was Flash Player 9.
I think my system and Registry stuff is pretty clean, at
least better than the average PC user. Yet, I had a problem.
Interference caused by something, and all without any warning
messages, etc.
I will never know the cause of this problem, only that an
uninstall and re-install from Adobe and all was well.
Now I remember why I hate computers!

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Flash player not working.  can't watch video and can't upload pics to facebook

    flash player not working.  can't watch video and can't upload pics to facebook

    thanks for helping.  I have windows 7, internet explorer.  recently had to replace my hard drive, and compete reinstall of all software so still a few bugs on settings, ect.  not seeing any error messages.  video and uploading pics seemed to be fine until the last week.  not sure what could have changed .  I can still look at PDF ect, I'm not positive its the Adobe that is messed up, but the 2 things I'm having problems with, clicking on and watching video on espn.com and not uploading pics to Facebook, both just does nothing when I try them.  no errors, just black screen where its suppose to play or upload.  the trouble shooting for both sites say make sure to have the latest version of flash player, so thats why I assume something is wrong with Adobe.  when I do the self scan from this site it says I have the latest version.  my settings say the player is enabled

  • The new version of Adobe Flash Player not working.

    The new version of Adobe Flash Player not working.
    She plants the clock to all videos , advertisements and links. I tried to uninstall and reinstall everything but the result remains unchanged. I am using Windows 8.1 and Mozilla Firefox. I need your help please .
    I'm sorry if i did errors of spelling because I used google translation. I 'm french .

    I finally figured it out. Flash Player had not installed. I had to de-activate Active-X thru the safety tab on the menu bar and then download the Adobe Flash Player and now it's working. I re-activated Active X after I finished installing Flash,. Hope fully everything will keep working fine!

  • Why does Flash player not work on samsung galaxy tablets?

    Hello, I am wondering why they do not have flash player for samsung galaxy tab 3? I just recently got the 8.0 sized one and it has great features,but no flash player? To have an up to date electronic device,and older electronic devices carry it,but you won't put it on new devices? Is there a way to get it to work or download it? It has stopped me from viewing many different things on my tablet unfortunately and this may cause me to return it.

    Android dropped all support for Flash last year (June 2012).
    Going back to 2006, when Apple released the first iPhone and iOS 1, Steve Jobs was insistent that it be made incompatible with Flash Player because (in his words) playing Flash content is processor consumptive and kills batteries, and well as shortening battery life in mobile devices. Android came along a little while later, but their reason for droppiong Flash last year was the same.
    Adobe continued developing "security updates" for the Flash Player that worked with older versions of Android, but even that ended in September of this year. Adobe will not continue development of a product for an incompatible format.
    Android recommends either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" browser from the GooglePlay store (both are free). They use "server side" technology to play Flash content without taxing your tablet or phone's processor.

  • Flash Player not working in IE 10, Windows 7 64 bit version

    My system is Windows 7 64bit version with IE 10.  Adobe Flash Player will not work in IE 10.  I have tried an unistall and a clean install with no success.  I can hear the video but not see it.  I also have Mozilla Firefox installed on my computer and Adobe Flash Player does work with it.  This has been going on for about a month.

    Here is solution I used for IE10, Window 7 64 bit:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie10-windows_7/ie10-says-adobe-flash-player-is nt-installed/d3c1eda6-cabc-4ca5-b4d9-dcba0c3aaad5
    1. Internet Explorer> Tools (or Alt + t)>Internet Options>Programs>Manage add-ons (Show: All add-ons) verify that the Shockwave Flash Objects are enabled.
    2. From Safety on the IE Command Bar (you may have to right-click the IE menu or IE toolbar and enable the Command Bar) uncheck ActiveX Filtering.
    If that helps, it would be safer to re-enable ActiveX Filtering and make an exception for the affected sites. See this article:

  • Flash buttons not working in IE7 and Chrome

    Here's my website where the problem is occuring www.bakercreative.co.uk
    As you can see the Flash buttons animate, but when clicked they should go to a new html page.
    I've tested it in IE8 and Firefox without any problems but it's not working in IE7 and Chrome.
    Does anyone know what the problem is? Could it be the html code or the flash file itself?
    Thanks

    Hi, Glad you were able to solve that issue with the buttons and Chrome. Any small thing can cause big problems!! LOL
    I'm sure IE7 will test out ok, IE6 did Your website is very nice and has a variety! I hope it all comes together for you.
