Flash Player problems? Please read...

Please post problems with Flash Player in one of these forums
Installing Flash Player
Using Flash Player
To ensure quick help, please provide the following information
your operating system and version;
your web browser and version;
your Flash Player version;
an exact description of your problem; "can't download" or "doesn't work" won't give us enough info to identify the problem and solve it.

Hi, First of all, Adobe would not ask that. What site are you using to try to Install Flash Player? Only use Adobe sites. Don' enter any information if you get that pop up again. It is not from Adobe.
Do you use any other browser except IE8 that you would want to Install Flash Player in?
I'll give you the links you need from Adobe.
Are you the Administrator and if so, you need to use that Account to Install Flash Player.
What Anti-Virus program do you have?
Thanks,

Install Flash Player in Acrobat Reader XI

Hi all,
I've several users facing a problem in Reader XI when reading PDF with RMA.
When they open the PDF, a yellow bar appears at the top saying “To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install the required version of Flash Player”. Clicking on “Learn More”, we have two situations:
Win XP: nothing appends it just hangs Reader… then people goes into the normal flash player page, install it but it don’t fix the problem.
Win 7: opens the community help tool, with the “Flash Player needed | Acrobat, Reader X” page, following the instructions “Right-click the link below for your operating system: “Windows: Flash Player Installer for Windows “ , there are no “Save Link As or Save Target As ” context menu, and clicking on it nothing appends…
The only way (for Win7) is to copy&paste the url into a browser then follow the instructions, but this is not something trivial… and user doesn’t succeed & goes away…
Is there any planning to make this process easier?
Thanks, regards,
GLoureiro

The link URL in the community help page ( http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobat_flashdownload_installer_win ) does a redirection so it picks up the latest version of the installer - which is why it won't report as a downloadable item when you context-click it in some browsers. However just clicking the link will force download of the bootstrapper.
On Windows XP if the message bar link within Reader isn't doing anything, it suggests the help system isn't working on that installation. Manually installing the regular Flash Player plugin will work but you MUST choose the version for Firefox, not the version for Internet Explorer. For more info see http://acrobatninja.com/2013/02/flash-player-in-acrobat-family.html

When did these flash player problems begin?

So, I had a computer running Win98 and IE6, which worked
great until Flash Player 8 autodownloaded about 4 months ago,
causing the beginning of an extreme headache. Several
communications with Adobe support (they eventually stopped
responding) over several weeks went nowhere None of the fixes
suggested by them, nor the ones here worked. Countless manhours led
me to think it was time to bite the bullet, buy a new computer. So,
as of two months ago I have a new computer running XP and IE6 with
SP2. I didn't know it until today, when I started having crashes,
but I have Flash Player 7.0.19.0. When i go to Adobe's Test page,
both Shockwave and Player windows show the animations (and no
crash).
On certain pages, which I believe have flash content, I get
the "IE has experienced a problem and must close" message. It
specifically mentions the flash.ocx file as the offender. It is
repeatable when visiting certain pages.
So, before I jump into the abyss of attempting to fix this, I
am wondering when these types of problems began. I have been using
Windows and IE since 1998 with no trouble until this year. I hoped
moving to a new computer would solve my Flash compatibility
problems. Could the root problem be new types of spyware, etc that
change something in the registry? Some of the fixes suggested by
Adobe were regarding keys changed in the registry. Unfortunately
those fixes didn't work (in Win98).
Finally, does anyone know if attempting to fix flash player
under XP is any easier than 98? Also, I will admit I may have
visited some sites recently that downloaded some adware, etc. Any
suggestions on cleaning that may solve the flash player problem? I
know this post is all over the map - I don't know where to begin...
Thanks in advance, Don

Hi
Which browser is giving you the error? Is it IE11?
Are you saying when you go to Adobe's website and download flash player it gives you an error?
Hope this helps. Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

Flash Player And adobe reader not working and downloads don't work

I have IE 8 and windows vista and everything has worked great for 2 years until 2 or 3 weeks ago. At that time my flash player stopped working so I could no longer get videos , streaming stock quotes, weather map loops, etc and when I go to websites that use Flash (i.e. Piaaz Hut) it wouldn't work. Also, at that same time my adobe reader stopped working properly and I can't view mosy PDF Files.
I have gone through many of the posts on this forum and have tried many of the fixes, but none have work for me.
I tried to uninstall the Flash Player, but I didn't use the Adobe uninstaller.
Whenever I try to update or load the Flash player, a dialog box with the globe tossing papers to the folder appears and then after a few seconds I get the the message that IE can't install_flash_player_ax.exe from fp download.adobe.com, and then a message that says IE was not able to open this internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found.
In control panel programs I have listed
Adobe AIR      no size
Adobe Flash Player 10 active X           no size
Adobe Reader 9.3     141mb
Macromedia Shockwave player      no size
In Tools i have the following add ons and they are all enabled
Shockwave Flash object 10.0.42.34
Adobe PDF Link Helper
Adobe PDF Reader
Macromedia Shockwave Active X Control 10.1
As I said I've already attempted a number of the fixes on this forum, but so far no luck.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I might try?
Thanks

Ok, I tried to download the firefox browser but IE wouldn't let me download it. My friend downloaded it from their computer to a flash drive and I loaded it to my computer from the flash drive. The download of Firefox from the flash drive worked, and now I'm using Firefox & both my adobe flash player and my adobe reader are working just great.
However, neither the flash player nor the reader are working if I use IE, so I guess I will just have to use Firefox as my browser.
I'm going to mark my question as answered since I really don't care that I have to use Firefox instead of IE,although I can't understand why it works using Firefox but not using IE.
Thank you so much for your assistance in walking me step-by-step through this problem until I was able to reach a satisfactory solution.

How can I get serial numbers or the free versions of Adobe, Air, Flash Player 14, and Reader XI Pro

How can I get serial numbers or the free versions of Adobe, Air, Flash Player 14, and Reader XI Pro that I had installed on my computer before Microsoft crashed my computer and I had to do a fresh install? I finished reinstalling Win 8.1Pro on my computer thanks to Microsoft Lvl 1 Techies corrupting my Command Structure so nothing would work. I had recently taken a picture of my installed programs (control panel, uninstall programs list) so that I would be able to reinstall everything I needed. I can't seem to find an email for the Reader which I remember paying for, the others I believe were free installs. Can anyone help me out.

Safari Version 5.0.5 < from your first post
5.0.5 is an outdated version of Safari.
There is an update available for Safari for version 5.1.1
That may help.
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen the click Software Update
Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.
Try full screen ...
If you have problems using Software Update from the menu you can use the standalone installer here > Safari 5.1.1

Adobe Flash Player Problem: "Movie Not Loaded"

new user to mac.
i'm getting more and more frustrated with this computer.
what's bugging me the most right now is
i am unable to view videos on certain websites.
rather than showing the content,
a white box appears.
when i right click on the white box,
it says "movie not loaded" (in gray) and adobe flash player 9 (in black).
i can't click on the gray line.
when i click on the black line, it brings me to the adobe website and tells me adobe flash player 9 has been successfully installed.
i am fairly sure this has nothing to do with heavy traffic.
any insights on how to resolve this issue?
cheers.

About Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Reader

Hi folks,
Archlinux 86-64 2007-08-2
SeaMonkey 1.1.6,
I need to install Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Reader
I found following link;
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … _on_Arch64
But not for Seamonkey. Does it work on Seamonkey. Besides it's flash plugin. Would it be the same as Adobe Flash Player?
Does 32bit Adobe Reader works on 64bit Seamonkey. Where can I download it? Where can I find its installation document?
TIA
B.R.

Assuming you had run

it looks like the package didn't build. Go back to your nspluginwrapper directory and run
makepkg
as your user, if this completes successfully it should create a file called something like
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
probably in the current directory. It may fail initially due to unsatisfied dependencies but you should be able to install them using pacman since I think all the lib32- stuff is in [Community] now.
Thanks for your advice.

I bought a 5 yr old Mac G5 OSx 10.4.11, 2 GHz intel Core 2 Duo processor, 1GB 667 MHz DDR1 SDRAM memory. It works fine but I can't get Thunderbird, Flash Player or Adobe reader to install -- it shows up on desktop as download but not App folder. Why?

Question: I bought a 5 yr old Mac G5 OSx 10.4.11, 2 GHz intel Core 2 Duo processor, 1GB 667 MHz DDR1 SDRAM memory. It works fine but I can't get Thunderbird, Flash Player or Adobe reader to install -- it shows up on desktop as download but not App folder. Why?

The downloads are probably .dmg files (disk images). You would open the disk image (double-click it) to find the application or an installer. If it's the application itself, you then drag the application to your Applications folder to "install" it. If it's an installer, double-click the installer to run the installer that installs the application.
NOTE: If you iMac is Intel, it's not a PPC G5.

You can try using the 'official' Facebook app or Friendly For Facebook - not sure whether they work with videos.

Please Help!!! At wits End!! Flash player problems using full screen mode

Thank you... I have a dual monitor setup with my macbook which is connected to my TV a Insignia NS-LCD47HD-09 model. +When I play flash videos in full screen on my lcd they come in all choppy and unsmooth.+ This problem developed all of a sudden and I have played flash videos on my lcd in the past with no issues, I dont know what changed. I've noticed these flash videos play all smooth on my macbook in fullscreen but not on my lcd. I have tried flash videos form many diffrent sites and have this same problem, also other formats divx for example dont have this problem. A flash video will play all smooth in the regular view and when i make it full screen it gets all choppy without fail on my tv.
I should also say I have the most up-to-date flash player 10, and have tried unistalling it and doing it again, as well as tried putting flash player 9 & 8 on my computer which dont seem to work at all. I have also tried to mess with the displays under system prefrences and am using a 1920X1080 on my lcd with 59.9ghz, none of my other potions seem to make a diffrence.
I have tried everything i can think of and tried to find other fourms for this problem and I just cant figure it out.... Please help, this has been really been bugging me.

Hmm, you may be onto something regarding the repair permissions thing. The authorization issue is happening when even putting together a movie that has more than one song from itms (and if you go to trim it, you end up in an endless loop between iMovie and iTunes— FUN!). There's a whole 'nother thread on it here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1079288&tstart=0
I did report it as a bug however. One other person in that thread was able to duplicate the issue at an Apple store on one of their machines. One would assume they go through the steps you do before installing software (assume tht is).

Someone please help me with my flash player problems, i install and then told its not installed

i have windows 7 only on my laptop now, but it seems that i have all the necessary products needed to play games etc. I have all my programs that need updates marked to do so as available. I have noticed when i go to particular sites now , like games in FB or games thru my AOL they tell me i need to install the newest version of the flash player. so i do that, go back to that site, same notification appears to install. i dont know ALOT about my laptop but have learned enough to know that i should very well it should be there if i have installed it time and time again correct? i dont understand the whole basis of what i might need for different sites/games. I have been playing the Big Fish game site since Dec. 2012 and it seems ever since i have been on a daily visit to that site SOMEHOW i cant play any other sites games now. so i read , do this, than this, if this or that is needed..........well it becomes a miss in my brain as to what they are telling/suggesting could be the problem. I truly need someone that has this knowledge to help me learn. i use to play on the webkinz world site for over a year, so last night i thought i would go back in there and again the flash player notice. so something has changed that i am unaware of it and how to solve it. i totally appreciate any help and time someone could give me. thank you,

In any case, the Flash Player forum is here:

Having installation problems with flash player! Please help!

So i download and begin installation for adobe flash player and it starts installing but stops at 50% to tell me to close Safari browsers. The problem is that there are no safari browsers open because I had already closed out of them but it keeps telling me to close them.
I have no idea how to fix this, please help!!

Hello,
If you're just closing the browser window, you're not actually quitting the application. You need to quit the application for Flash Player to install. There are a few different ways to Quit Safari:
Quit Safari app from the Dock icon:
Mouse over the Safari icon in the Dock
Press CTRL and left-mouse click at the same time
A menu will display. Click Quit to terminate the application.
Use Activity Monitor to terminate Safari:
Launch Activity Monitor from Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor
Ensure 'All Processes' are being listed (menu in the upper right)
Find and select Safari
Click the Quit Process button (upper left)
