Flash player not working in windows 7 internet explorer 64bit

windows 7 - 64 bit
adobe flash 11.5 (most recent one as of 11/9/12)
Previously i was able to go to a website and view videos. I can no longer view my videos. I uninstalled and reinstalled the newest Adobe Flash that is currently out. When i went to play the video it just shows that the video is loading but nothing ever loads. I right clicked and pressed Global Settings and it stated that i do not have Adobe Plug in installed. If i reinstalled Adobe Flash shouldn't the Adobe Plug in have been installed too?
Can someone help me with this?

The plugin is for other browsers like Firefox.

  • Flash Player not working after install Internet Explorer 10

    I have tried several attempts at installing and unistalling Flash Player.  I have used the data base provided to trouble shoot the issue with no success.  Yes I have done everything suggested by Adobe to no avail.

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    Which Windows are you using ?
    Do you see Flash cube bounching on this page : http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    Make sure "Shockwave Flash Object" is enabled under Add-ons (Tools -> Manage Add-ons) and ActiveX Filtering is disabled (Tools -> Security)
    Thanks,

  • Flash Player not working in Windows 8.1 (Internet Explorer 11)

    Hi,
    I cannot get Flash Player to work in IE 11 on Windows 8.1 (on a Surface Pro). This has been going on for a while, and I was hoping that  I've tried the usual suggestions from this community:
    Ensure it's not disabled: the control is enabled.
    ActiveX filtering is OFF
    Removed IE as a feature and reinstalled it
    I tried reinstalling the latest MSU with Flash Player (13 now) from Microsoft's site (KB 2942844, 64-bit) and that installation fails. Attempting to install the Debug version from Adobe (also an MSU) fails as well.
    Before I did the above tests, I did notice that my ActiveX control was not from Microsoft or Adobe, it was from an unknown vendor. On another system, it reads it's from Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component.
    Is there a way to clear this out and then hopefully successfully install the MSU?
    Please don't suggest to run Firefox or Chrome. I know I can do that, I am looking for a solution to run Flash in IE.
    SA.

    There are two registry keys and the KB patch that MUST BE manually removed before you can manually replace Flash Player ActiveX in Windows 8 or 8.1. I did it one time on a test machine and it was a MAJOR P.I.T.A.
    Before I did the above tests, I did notice that my ActiveX control was not from Microsoft or Adobe, it was from an unknown vendor. On another system, it reads it's from Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component.
    ActiveX is a software framework created by Microsoft that adapts its earlier Component Object Model (COM) and Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) technologies for content downloaded from a network, particularly in the context of the World Wide Web. It was introduced 1996 (it's old enough to vote now - Yay!!!) and is commonly used in its Windows operating system. In principle it is not dependent on Microsoft Windows, but in practice, most ActiveX controls require either Microsoft Windows or a Windows emulator. Most also require the client to be running on Intel x86 hardware, because they contain compiled code. Adobe doesn't own or develop ActiveX. They write conformed code with it for the IE plug-in.
    Is there a way to clear this out and then hopefully successfully install the MSU?
    No. The ActiveX Flash Player plug-infor Win 8 or 8.1 can ONLY be modified, updated or repaired via Windows Update. You may need to repair IE first: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378  That'll fix the plug-in (in most cases) in Windows 8 & 8.1
    Please don't suggest to run Firefox or Chrome. I know I can do that, I am looking for a solution to run Flash in IE.
    Here's something to consider: Internet Explorer 11’s Many User-Agent Strings
    Microsoft is already trying to convince websites you visit THAT YOU ARE USING SOMETHING ELSE.
    Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser.
    User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video.
    Thanks to the "geniuses" in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome, Opera, Safari).
    Trouble is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
    The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. Or the content just doesn't play.
    YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Not everyone has converted to HTML5 yet, though.
    Facebook and other game sites can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
    Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of content in the websites you visit.
    They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE...
    Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend using another browser, even if you don't like the idea. Since most of the websites you visit with IE11 already see it as Firefox or Chrome, you might as well actually be using one or the other.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Flash player not working with windows vista

    I cannot use the
    flash player or the adobe reader on my computer. I haev high speed cable and windows vista system. I was advised by my isp to uninstall norton software and to try to install the adobe flash player again. I am given the instruction to download and it says its downloading. I go to youtube for example, it will continue to tell me to update to the flash player. Also, i somehow have bing as my toolbar on my computer and am not able to follow the direction of the instructions to trouble shoot online. I still have the norton un installed and cannot use the flash player or the flash reader. Can I get some help?

    Hi, thanks. I would Uninstall and Install again, but use these instructions.
    Download and SAVE the Uninstaller to your Desktop:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then download the Installer for IE and SAVE to your Desktop:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    Use the link that is shown for Windows, Internet Explorer and the Installer EXE
    Close all browsers, disable any messenger services in the system tray(area near the clock). Depending on which Anti-Virus/Firewall program you use, you may need to disable those. Some will block the download of the ActiveX Control for Flash Player in IE.
    Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer, then run the Installer for IE, When finished, Reboot your computer.
             You can test each browser here and you should see the Flash logo animation and the Flash Player version.

  • Flash Player not working on Windows 8.1, IE 11

    Continued problems with web pages on Windows 8.1
    Always saying "Thie webpage wants to run the following add-on: 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Microsoft Windows Third Party Application...."
    no matter what i pick, Allow, Allow always all ways keeps asking..
    Yes the Plugin is Enabled.
    Obviously if i turn off Active X filtering the message goes away, but doesnt help, as websites which require the flash player doesnt work...
    Ive manually tried uninstalling the flash player, by using the uninstall tool and deleting the files, but this just broke it more... so had to system restore it...
    Restored it back to a time before the issue, same thing !!
    Using this link > http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html
    and selecting Test Flash Player, gives me an icon to get flash player, it click the icon, then loops back to same page...
    Please dont tell me the solution is the Use Chrome or Use Firefox. As this isnt a solution.
    I would like a fix for IE11
    Anyone??
    can someone tell me how to actually contact Adobe about this issue...
    Thanks in advance, to anyone who gives some useful input to this.

    1. Continuing to use IE11 will continue your problems and your frustration. I won't tell you to use Chrome or Firefox, but THAT'S what will take care of this for you.  What you see  is a result of this:
    "User-Agent Strings"
    That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
    Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser (Read more here).
    User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video.
    Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome).

    I'm not big on "pretending" so I WON'T recommend actually using another browser.... but here they are.

    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that, because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
    2. If you'd like a fix for IE... You'll need to go to Microsoft for it, but as I already stated, they have NO INTENTION of fixing the abominable mess they made because they think it's a great idea.
    3. Contacting Adobe about Microsoft's garbage browser (and it IS garbage) won't do any good, because Adobe doesn't make IE11 and THAT'S wherein the problem lies.

  • Flash player not working in windows 8

    have active x off and player enabled  works fine in chrome.

    Chrome has it's own Flash Player plugin ("PepperFlash") apart from IE (which is now a Microsoft Plugin in IE 10 Win 8).
    If everything here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html  doesn't help, you'll need to turn to Microsoft. Since Windows 8 and IE 10, they embed and maintain Flash Player. It's THEIR baby, now.

  • Latest version of Adobe Flash Player not working in Firefox13

    I upgraded to the latest version of Firefox (13.0) and then installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.257. Now when I try view on-line video clips the area on the page where the video player would normally display is a "blank" white space.
    This occurs on any site where there a video clip or amination
    The upgrade of the flash player however works perfectly with Internet Explorer. Please advise

    I love Firefox and I've honestly never used any browser for my Internet surfing needs. However, this bug has been a major problem for me and I've temporarily resorted to using a different browser until it's resolved. Hopefully that's soon before I get too attached to my new alternative.

  • Help Please? Flash Player not working, windows 7 32 bit IE.

    Hi. I cannot get the Flash player to play content in Internet Explorer 32 bit. I am extremely frustrated.  My info is:
    Windows 7/64 bit
    All windows updates are current
    Dell studio 1749 Lap top
    IE 8 32 bit
    IE 8 64 bit
    32 bit Flash Player 10.1.85.3
    64 bit flash player "square"  10.2.161.22
    windows firewall
    High speed cable with wireless router
    Avast antivirus free  5.0.677
    I have spent several days reading this forum as well as other forums on the same subject and have tried many many suggestions that have been posted without results. I have checked my user account settings, mine is set to administrator. I have checked and rechecked Internet explorer internet option settings and tried them all including none ( set to not recommended  lowest  settings) for all the zones. I have reset internet explorer settings under the advanced tab. I have tried to install the flash player many times using both the auto install from the browser window as well as the manual download and install program from your web site many times. I have uninstalled from windows control panel and also using your manual uninstall program between each reinstall attempt.
    I have restarted both my computer and internet explorer after each install and uninstall so many times I can't count. There are many other things I have tried as per some of the things I have read but so far no success. The interesting thing i find is while trying to fix this problem i downloaded the flash player code named "square" 64 bit and it works perfectly using Internet explorer 64 bit.
    Internet explorere Adobe add ons are:
    In IE 32 bit add ons listed are;
    shockwave activeX control  - enabled
    get_atlcom Class  - enabled
    In IE 64 bit add ons listed are;
    shockwave flash object   -  enabled
    Files installed on my harddrive are;
    in windows/sysWOW64/macromed/flash
    Flash10k.ocx
    Flashinstall.log
    Flashutil10k_activeX.dll
    Flashutil10k_activeX.exe
    in windows/system32/macromed/flash
    Flash64_10_2_161.ocx
    Flashinstall.log
    Flashutil64_10_2_161_activeX.dll
    Flashutil64_10_2_161_activeX.exe
    I hope you are able to assist me in fixing this problem.
    Thanks

    Good Morning.
    I can not get the batch file to create a log file. Anyway the general message throughout the entire batch file report is that nothing succeded.  Each time it tried to create a reg key the resulting message is :
    Regsetsecurity error : 5 access is denied
    When trying to reset FP security permissions:
    Set security privilage : access is denied
    Warning  :unable to SeSecurityPrivilage privilage. This privilage may be required.
    Then when it tries to create file "macromed" error is
    Createfile error : 1314  A required privilage is not held by the client
    Anyway this gives you a general idea of what has happened running the batch file,
    I am starting to think we are spending far to much time on this ,but I enjoy the  challange to correct the problem.
    If this is due to a corruption or some such thing in the registry I could have reformatted and reinstalled My system complete in less than a day. This is the fourth day on this.
    If the User Accounts list me as the administrator and there are no other accounts how can I not have the required permissions?

  • IE 11 & Flash player not working...windows 8.1

    I have a HP pavilion laptop.. I cant not get videos to play it keeps saying "You need Adobe Flasher playr to watch this" .  Problem thought IE 11 had an integrated Flash player... if so why won;t it work?? Called Microsoft support on the phone with tech support for an hour thought it was fixed.. nope back to square one.. Anyone have any suggestions.. I had noticed everything stopped workling after the update patch of: KB2867622.. Unistalled it & reinstalled it nothing is working...

    Your Flash Version
    Flash Player disabled
    Your browser name
    Internet Explorer
    Your Operating System (OS)
    Windows (Windows 8)
    this is the message I get from the adobe flash player test page. At the bottom of the page I have a pop up saying this webpage wants to run the following add on "adobe flash player" from Microsoft third party application component then there is an allow or always allow option (selecting either reloads the page with same message and flashplayer wont play, website message "Flash Player is not installed you need Flash Player to view content". Manage add-ons Flashplayer enabled? yes Active x filtering off? Yes tried all of the steps listed from adobe and Microsoft spent so many hours I am tired of all of this. Using windows 8.1 64 bit flash player wont allow me to install because it says its already in windows IE 11 adobe closes off discussions but if they would simply help with queries instead of closing a thread maybe we could get help. I like IE 11 its faster and better than chrome or firefox and resolving this issue would help a great many people and restore confidence in adobe and microsoft

    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

    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.

    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)
