Flash player says its installed but is not working- please read
Hey everyone!
the past few days I have easily spent several hours working with my flash player. First- it was saying I needed to put in the latest version, so I did, it said it worked but when I tried to watch videos or play a game etc I got an error message saying I needed flash player 11. and I went through that process countless times. I restarted my computer, ran my virus software, etc. when none of that worked I just disabled and trashed ALL of the software I had downloaded since I had had the problem including my current flash player and adobe. Just now, I tried to install the flash player again. It seemed to work great- it said it installed and I clicked finnish... but, behold, I go to watch a video for school and I have the same problem. I tried to change the computer type to the otehr windows 7 option for the download, again it seemed to work fine and downloaded and told me it was finished... but I still can't view my video or do any games etc online. I have worked with the IT department at school and with family... no one can figure it out. it should be working as far as we are all concerned...but it is not and I have school work to do.
If someone could please help me I would much appriciate it! if this is a glitch with some adobe thing- PLEASE fix it asap. I have work to do!
Thanks!
Maggie

What is your operating system, version & edition?
What is your web browser?

Flash player says its installed but I cannot watch any videos?
every time I try to watch a video it tells me to install it again, this has been going on for a week, what is the problem with it?
I have a windows 7 toshibaDownload the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking one of the following links and selecting "Save as".
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Save the file to your downloads folder.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening ANYTHING else, locate and run the installer.
If using Internet Explorer, see: Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer
and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer -
it's been a while that Im unable to copy music from itunes to my iphone. I updated my device to the latest version of IOS 5.1.1 and made sure no jailbreak is installed but still not working. please assist.
Assuming you are not manually managing your music, verify the following:
You are using the latest version of iTunes
On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings you have checked "Sync only checked songs and videos"
In your music library you have checked all the songs you want to sync to your phone
There are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
You have authorized your computer for all Apple IDs for purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize this computer)
You have checked "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings
When everything looks correct, sync your phone. -
Flash Player seems to install, but will not function
Flash Player installs but does not work. When I go to the troubleshooting website (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html), the box does not fill with information. If I right click where the box should be however, the menu shows the version and acts as if AFP is installed. I cannot select settings, but can select global settings. The global settings dialog box will open.
I am using AFP version 11.7.700.169, using IE 9, and running Windows 7. I have 2 other PCs, and both are running the program fine. So far, I have tried many things to troubleshoot with no luck.
So far:
-Complete uninstall, using the Adobe uninstaller. I have deleted the folders and content as well, shut down, and tried reinstall.
-I have deleted the registry entry and also tried setting it to zero located at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}.
-I am using Norton 360, and have tried an install with all services stopped (Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam, Auto protect, etc)
-I have verified Active X filtering is not checked in IE.
-Active X and Scripting options in IE>Tools>Internet Options are enabled and mirror the selections on the two working PCs.
-I have tried to uninstall and reinstall an earlier version of AFP with no luck.
-Shockwave Flash Object Addon is enabled.
Screen shot is included to show what happens on the redirect screen after I install AFP.
I am out of ideas and would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks!I'm a little disappointed in the forums - no responses. I'm happy to share I found the issue, and am sharing the solution in case others have the same problem. The interesting thing is the setting that I changed is different on the two working computers. In IE9 navigate to Tools>Internet Options>Advanced and the first check box under Accelerated Graphics...check it. Restart IE and voila, it is fixed. The other two PCs I am using have this box unchecked and AFP works fine...odd.

I have Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 9 with both 32 and 64 - 32 being the main one used.
It's 4 months old and has worked beautifully up till a couple of days ago when trying to get into Mathletics website it tells me Javascript is diabled. Please turn on Javascript to access Mathletics website, then it comes up with
Mathletics Minimum Requirement
To view this website, Flash Player 9 or above is required. You can download the latest one for free from Adobe by clicking the image below:
We haven't touched Flash Player or Javascript so I don't know why all of a sudden this has happened after using it without any problems for 4 months.
Anyway I've checked all the suggestions re Internet Options Security (custom level etc) and checked Internet Options Programs manage add-ons, and checked under ?Help that we're running IE (without 64bit showing). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the current Flash Player version several times, and when I check http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ it shows I have version 10,3,181,34 installed, I've even copied across from my last backup the version which worked before these problems. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled Java.
Can someone please help.
thanks
Maria T
New Zealandthanks for the explanation.
I think I will leave ActiveX Filtering enabled. I have added the mathletics webiste to my restricted sites (tools, internet options, security, restricted sites) and have changed the custom level to ActiveX Filtering disabled, and I have also changed the (top right hand corner) content filtering to read "no content is filtered on this site".
Is this ok that I do that?
However, it hasn't rectified my problem.
I see there are quite a few people that seem to be having the same or similar problem with Windows 7 / IE9 and Flash Player, is it possible there's a bug?
Yes I do have Citrix installed, will contact them about that problem - thanks.
Thanks

Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
Has anyone seen this. It seems to happen with ARD 3, have not seen this in ARD 2.
I go to the Install Packages on Target Computers, put in: 10.4.7 Combo (for the correct CPU, PPC or Intel), security updates, QT 7.1.2, etc.
Push it to Macs I can connect to, observe and control.
The progress bar copies the files (in some instances it does not) and then it just hangs there, bar does not move, Installs never finish, not good, very odd.Is it the same clients that have the problem every time? Are those clients doing anything cpu intensive? Have you tried rebooting the affected clients?
Maybe try a smaller package on those clients. -
I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.0.2. my wifi says its connected but doesn't work now. It doesn't matter what wifi network I connect to. It worked before updating my phone. I can no longer use facetime or use wifi at all. I'm not sure what to do to fix it.
I'm having similar issues with my phone. I got my first iPhone recently, only had an iPod touch gen4 for a little over a year. Updated to 6.0.2 when we got the phone (iPhone 5) a few days before Christmas. When I got home on the evening of January 11, my phone would not connect the router anymore. I was able to get it to connect after resetting the phone and the router, updating the router, and manually connecting. That laste for a few minutes and then wouldn't work anymore. I live in an area with very limited service, we have a network extender installed to help, and I am barely getting a 3G signal at times.
My wife's iPad 4, my touchiPod 4, and all of our laptops are working just fine on the router. When I dropped my kid off at school today, I noticed that I am not even seeing the school network anymore from the parking lot where before I got 3 or 4 bars and could connect to their wifi when I was there. Today my phone goes back and forth between seeing my home network but not connecting, to not even seeing the network at all even from the same room that the router is in.
Hope Apple fixes this problem soon.............. -

i was trying to install premier pro it says its installed but it isn't and i can't reinstall it
Thanks for the added information, the screenshot did not get posted but that is ok.
These steps should resolve the issue on your Mac:
Double-click on the link for Uninstall Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 at Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers.
Check if the Install link is now available in the Adobe Application Manager.
If not, install and run the Adobe Cleaner Tool to remove any traces of Premiere Pro. It can be downloaded from here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html.
The Install link should now be available in the Adobe Application Manager. -

I have just setup a new ipad and first app I downloaded was ibook. my ipad says its installed but I can't find it. any suggestions please?
For some reason this happens to some people. The one thing that works is to reboot your iPad. To reboot: Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad wil restart. Once it's back up, I'm betting you'll see iBooks.
