Flash Player not working in IE8 or IE9

Had been using IE9 and all of a sudden had problems on all sites with Flash. Went to a website and was prompted to "Click to install activex control: Adobe Flash Player". When I click to install, I get the error message that the "Flash Player I am trying to install is not the latest version. Please visit the download center to get the latest version." I do that, go to install 10.3.183.10, download, run, etc. Then I get a message saying "Newer version already installed". If I look under my installed program, that IS the version that is installed. I uninstalled it, and then re-installed it for Firefox. That at least works somewhat, but I've had a lot of problems with FF lately with screen freezing, not responding, etc., and I have the same problems since uninstalling & reinstalling (not saying it's a Flash Player related problem, could be something different) which is why I've been using IE.
I read about someone having a problem with IE9 and uninstalling and going back to IE8, so I did that, and here I am still having the same probem in IE8.
HELP!

UGH! I can't take this. I'm the OP and STIL having the same problems. For a while it was ok. I went back to IE8 (instead of latest version 9), and Flash version 10, and that seemed to solve the problem. Then i started having more and more problems on sites with flash, and then finally I could no longer play my FB game (Cityville) b/c I would get the "you need to update to the latest version of Flash". So..... I updated to Version 11, and now it crashes ALL the time and can't even go on Youtube b/c it says I need the latest version of Flash! I HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF FLASH!! In other words....back to my original problem from a few months ago. I don't know what else to do at this point. At the moment, everything seems to be working ok in Firefox.......... but why can't I get it to work in IE? FTR, every time I upgraded to IE9, Flash wouldn't work at all which is why I ended up just going back to IE8. Has there been any headway made on the Flash/IE issues or do I now have to go back to using Firefox all the time? (ironic b/c when this all first started I had been using FF for years, and had to go back to IE due to the flash problems with FF).
ETA: I just upgraded to IE9 and now when I go to flash sites, it lets them load but everything flashes all crazily (same as happened months ago). *insert head banging smiley*

Flash Player not working for IE8, FF, Chrome

Hi,
I have Windows XP 32-bit, and I upgraded to flash player 10.
I went to youtube (and various other sites) and tried to watch a video, all I get is a black screen where the video is. It doesn't have the icon where it says "flash player needed"
I have un-installed and re-installed a couple of times. I even went to other browsers but it's all the same. and it is showing up on my programs list.
the files in my C: drive are:
Flash10i.ocx
FlashInstall.log
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.exe
Note: I tried using the Adobe Downloader but it kept saying "SSL not able to connect" or something. This is a laptop issued by my company and I got Flash Player 10 files from our own website as we have to maintain all upgrades.
Thanks.

Hi, Have you tried to turn off the hardware acceleration feature? If not you can go to the Adobe test site and right click on the Flash logo and click on Settings, then on Display Settings to UNcheck H.A.
Then also check the IE manage add ons for Shockwave Flash Object and make sure it is Enabled.
In FF, look in plugins for the Shockwave Flash vs 10.1.82.76 and make sure it is Enabled.
Flash Player is embedded with Chrome, so there shouldn't be any problem with it.
See if that helps.
Thanks,

Flash Player not working in IE8

I have tried all solutions that I could find. This began with the malware iesafemode/av8. It is removed though McAffee AV did not detect it. Manually removed. Firefox works with AFP, IE8 does not. Have used uninstall tools, uninstalled IE, reinstalled AFP and IE8. Same results. IE8 reports "you must install AFP...." when opening a video in any source thats uses AFP.
The malware iesafemode is quite disruptive. It disabled browsers with bogus registry entries.It prevents usnig search. IE had to be reinstalled as it appeared corrupted.

Check if AV8 has set the "kill-bit" on your system: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049
If yes, you can remove it with the download at the bottom of http://forums.adobe.com/message/3434922#3434922

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

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.
