Flash player requires external internet access?

Hello,
I'm wondering if flash player requires access to the external web to run. I have a machine where external internet access is blocked. When I load my webpage that contains a SWF, Flash player seems to throw the #2032 error and fail.
Can anyone confirm if the Flash player connects to the web during startup? If so, can this be turned off? If not, I'm trying to find what may be causing the famous 2032 error.
Thanks
Udam

You may need to turn off Flash Player update checking. Unfortunately this also needs Internet access (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager05.htm l).

  • Flash Player 9 is installed but I get a message "Macromedia Flash player required"?

    I have installed the last 9th version of Adobe Flash Player.
    Few weeks ago I had no problems with my browser when visiting
    websites with Flash content and it was the same 9th version of
    Flash.
    But now, when visiting some websites I get a message
    "Macromedia Flash Player required" (but not Adobe Flash Player).
    I've reset all settings in "Internet Options" dialog. I've updated
    the last version of Flash Player. I have no problems when visiting
    websites with Flash content with Opera, Mozilla Firefox and
    Netscape Navigator. The only problem is with Internet explorer. And
    what's strange? When I visit, for instance, www.lamborghini.it or
    www.flash-game.net, there are no problems, but when I visit
    www.dodge.be or I want to read some Course material in
    http://cisco.netacad.net I get
    that message.
    I don't think that the problem is that Dodge or Cisco use
    files of old version of Flash. Because, as I've already said, I had
    the same version before, installed on my PC, and I had no problems.

    Probably you get that message because the flash plugin
    checker they implemented is checking for a specific version and not
    higher then x.

  • Why my application requires "Full Internet Access"

    I am creating an apk build for GooglePlay with Adobe AIR integrated, and my application requires "Full Internet Access". I didn't set this permission requirement, but it appears, why?

    An application built in Flash or Flex, runs on "AIR" in Android, does not run natively, and how to connect "AIR" with Android, is through a local network, then that permission "Full Internet Acces" is to allow a local connection between AIR and Android, yes, I know it's silly, but so it is.

  • Cannot install flash player due to internet explorer

    I am running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 10. I have disabled activeX filtering, made sure scripting was enabled, and temporarily shut off my antivirus software as instructed by Adobe website. None of these things have fixed my problem. I try to download the flash player and in the middle of downloading it says to close internet explorer. I close all open windows of IE and push continue. It keeps telling me to shut down internet explorer even though it is not open. Please help. Thanks!

    The new flash player update crashes internet explorer and firefox, please send a new release to fix the problem ASAP!

    ok   here's more mystery.  i just uninstalled and reinstalled flash player using the adobe uninstaller and rebooting after each step.  aqlso installed latest java.  i started looking at videos and here are the ones that worked: you tube

                                    here are the ones that partially worked: the blaze (works on videos that originate from you tube, but not from news stories)
                                                                                              bing (work on videos from their video section - entertainment type, but not from news videos)
    the common thing here seems to be that news type videos crash and entertainment type don't.  also videos seem more likely to crash on internet portals like yahoo

  • Why do some versions of Flash Player require a new DMG to be downloaded through a web browser?

    Why do some versions of Adobe Flash Player require a new DMG on OS X to be downloaded through a web browser? It is an annoyance to users to have to go through downloading a new DMG and installing through this method. Why can this not be an in-place download and install just as the normal delta updates?
    In addition, is there no way for Adobe to implement a new update process where the browsers are not required to be shutdown if a person is updating? It would make more sense to put things in place for the user and have these new values put into effect when the browser is finally shutdown. Unless the browser is shutdown, whatever version is already installed and running will continue. Is that some sort of privacy problem for Adobe?

    First point: I don't know why they don't just have the PKG file for download, other than it's harder for unscrupulous folks to make a DMG that will pass the "Gatekeeper" checksum.
    Second point: Since the browser uses the Flash Player Plugin, trying to update it while the browser is running would be akin to trying to change your oil while driving down the freeway at 70MPH. And then there's the whole "admin password needed" thing, that would prevent "blind updates".
    You can always download the offline installer: Flash Player (For Mac OS X) and run it whenever you want.

  • Insufficient Flash Player Requirements....but my set up looks ok.

    Trying to stream from ESPN2. Get a message "Insufficient Flash Player Requirements". I went through the Troublshoot steps...all were ok but still can't stream. I'm on Windows 8.1 64 bit. Tried to update Flash Player but it was already up to date

    Chrome uses its own plug-in.
    To update the ActiveX plug-in,
    I have two Win 8 machines and an 8.1 setup, and I cannot install ANYTHING on any of them without right clicking and choosing "Run as Administrator" anymore.
    It's a total P.I.T.A., but I'm learning to live with it.

  • Flash Player Plugin tries to access the internet upon arriving at account login pages

    Firefox 24.0
    Adobe Flash Player Plugin 11.8 r800
    Firewall software: ZoneAlarm
    My firewall is set to "Manual Control" and I get warnings for all Internet access attempts.
    Firefox is already granted outgoing access to the Internet, so I surf without additional warnings. So if I go to YouTube, I can watch the videos without receiving a prompt from my Firewall.
    However when I visit a secure account login page (where I have to enter my user ID and PW) the Firewall warns me that "Firefox is trying to use Adobe Flash Player 11.8 r800 to access the Internet".
    A prompt like this is provided by the Firewall when one program uses another to access the Internet. If for example I click on a link in MS Excel, the firewall will tell me that Excel is trying to use Firefox to access the Internet.
    What makes me concerned is:
    1) Firefox already has access privileges. It should not need to "use Flash to access the internet"
    2) This occurs when I'm about to use the keyboard to enter sensitive data into a secure page
    3) There are no [apparent] Flash elements on the login pages.
    Could I have acquired a malicious Flash software that tries to collect keystrokes and transmit them somewhere? Is there a way to show (in Firefox) which Flash file is working at any given time? (This would let me identify what's making the attempt to access)
    I am fully protected with Antivirus, Antispam, and breach prevention software. I also ran Norton Power Eraser to see if there was anything at Root level. Nothing found.
    Thank you, in advance for your feedback.

    Pages can use Flash even when there is no video displayed. For example some sites use Flash for menus, some for audio, and some may load Flash in their Google Analytics scripts so they know as much as possible about your system.
    In most cases, the Flash player will be trying to load a .SWF file, although that may not always be obvious. You could look for it in Firefox's Web Console.
    While viewing the page, press Ctrl+Shift+k, the reload the page. If there is a request for Flash media from the page, it should appear in the console (if the request is held up by your firewall, it nevertheless should appear as a pending request). There is a search/filter box where you could try entering .swf to reduce the time needed to scan through the list. Can you find the URL of the requested file? That might or might not make you comfortable about the request.

  • Adobe Flash Player required for streamed internet radio broadcasts

    I am not well-versed in the technical aspects of why Adobe Flash Player is not allowed on the iPad2 (and other Apple devices). But I don't
    understand how "damaging" is would be to allow its use to enable an iPad2 user to listen to streamed radio broadcasts which--apparently--require Adobe Flash Player.

    A quick search of the forum will give you numerous threads that explain the issue. In fact, just look at a couple in the More Like This box to the right of your post.
    Best of luck.

  • Flash Player 9 crashes Internet Explorer 6.

    Hello
    Previous versions of Flash Player worked fine on my Win98SE
    system until I upgraded to versions 8 and 9, then it became
    impossible to use Flash Player without a message popping up saying
    that there had been an illegal instruction in module FLASH9B.OCX.
    Occasionally I had to reboot my system which had become
    unstable (blue screen - system busy).
    I submitted the register dump from the FLASH9B.OCX crash to
    Adobe and they provided me with an uninstall tool along with
    instructions on how to (re)install the latest version.
    Every re-installation of the latest version always ended with
    an eventual crash of the FLASH9B.OCX module while visiting
    different websites,
    Adobe advised me to stop using Flash Player on the grounds
    that there was, in their estimation, something corrupt within my
    Win98SE operating system and/or Internet Explorer version 6, all of
    which I have kept up to date with the latest patches from MS.
    I downloaded a fresh copy of Internet Explorer and I also ran
    the Win98 tool that verifies the system files and I replaced the
    half dozen files that were flagged as being suspect (checksum
    error, no doubt).
    In spite of this, Internet Explorer still crashes when I
    visit a website which has Flash media on it (static images).
    I have resigned myself to living in a world without Flash
    Player.
    But the price to pay for not keeping Flash Player installed
    on one's system is that there are constant requests to download
    Flash Player via a pop-up window, and even my pop-up blocker can't
    hide these constant interruptions.
    Has anyone else had this same problem and if so, have you
    found a better way to live with or without Flash Player?
    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    UPDATE: When I go back to version 8, then module FLASH8B.OCX
    crashes in the same way as version 9.
    If I go back to version 7 (7.0.19), everything works
    perfectly. So what was changed in version 8 that makes my Internet
    Explorer crash?

    up in a debugger and look for a non-MMX code path and see if I can
    patch one to work.
    I thought of "back-reving" to the latest Flash 7 player to
    see if the issue goes away but I have yet to do that.
    Good luck looking for a non-MMX code path hidden upstream of
    the offending MMX instruction.
    Going back to Flash 7 is relatively easy and you will
    suddenly be able to visit places you haven't been in years, but
    there are still some sites that will block you unless you have
    Flash player 8 or 9.
    First use the Adobe uninstaller to clean up which is found
    at .
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157
    Then find a copy of :
    flashplayer7r61_winax.exe
    and run it. That will give you the latest Flash 7.

  • Flash Player Crashes In Internet Explorer 8&9 While Playing HD YouTube Video

    Has anyone else came across this issue? While on YouTube if you try to play a video in HD, it'll play for a second and then crash. This only happens in Internet Explorer. Any suggestions would be helpful. I have tried many things and this is driving me crazy! Thanks in advence for the input.

    So after 4 grueling hours of troubleshooting and trying different fixes, we finally solved the issue. Turns out that we were testing an HD YouTube video just to make sure that Flash Player was functioning without any speakers or headphones plugged in. For some reason when there is no audio device plugged in, the YouTube video starts to play regularly and the reverts to HD. As soon as it changes to HD, it'll crash. Simple as that. So, lesson learned and some advice. Always plug in an audio device. At first when I figured this out, I felt stupid. I then realized that it shouldn't matter if speakers are plugged in or not. A YouTube video should play no matter what if Flash is installed. Anyway, this issue was resolved. Thanks for the input everyone.

  • Flash player caches external class files

    Hi I work for a technology company in San Antonio and we use
    flash for developing interactive course ware. We use a flash shell
    which loads the separate pages of our lessons and have noticed a
    very big problem with the way the flash player caches class files.
    Basically it seems that when you use the 'import' call in
    actionscript the flash movie doesn't import the external class if
    it has already been loaded. the problem is that we have a huge
    amount of developed classes, many of which have been updated
    throughout our development. Is there any way for force clear the
    ASO cache in actionscript or force import external actionscript
    classes?

    Yes we know and use the delete aso files feature all the
    time. this however is a runtime problem. meaning that the flash
    player itself is caching class files and there is no way to get it
    to refresh these links without doing a forced refresh of the shell
    itself. this is something that is not an option as it doesn't allow
    for fluid page loading. Is there any way to force reload/import
    class files that have already been loaded, that is clear the
    class/aso cache in the flash player itself using actionscript
    code?
