Adobe Flash Player Update Problem

When I go to install the new Flash Player update on my Mac OS X I go through all the normal steps but when it begins to install it stays stuck at around 25% and won't move. It just says downloading. After a while of staying still it just says connection lost. I've tried a clean install I've tried deleting and redownloading it but nothing has worked so far.

Please use the offline installer:

Safari 6.0.2 and adobe flash player update problem

I am having problems installing the current version of adobe flash player. Whenever I try and view a video from a site that requires it (eg. youtube, etc.), it says I need to update adobe flash player and sends me to a link to do so. I've installed flash player "successfully" several times, deinstalled it and reinstalled it, re-downloaded it, but I'm always getting the message to update flash player. Can anyone help with some suggestions to get this working corectly?
I am running osx 10.8.2 and safari 6.0.2.
Thanks very much. Ron

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
3. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
4. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Flash Player Updation Problem

I am using a laptop with Windows 7 / 64 bit operation system. The current Adobe Flash Player version is 16.0.0.287. Its says its outdated and requires an updation. But after downloading the .exe file and trying to update, it says error downloading. Tried a number of times but could not instal. Please help.

Hello Chris, first let me thank you for taking the time to respond to my dilemma. I am using WIN7 Home Premium and IE9. It took me a long time to find out where the Flash program reside. I found them to be in folders on SysWOW64 and System32. I attempted to delete the files in the Flash folder with the intent to uninstalled Flash so that I could do a fresh install. I was not able to complete this exercise as I was unable to delete the .ocx file. It required an administrator to do this. Although I am the administrator on my system, it would not delete. There you have in a nutshell where I am with this problem. Regards. Patti

Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are

I get following message:
Adobe® Flash® Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
How can I solve this?

People,
Listen. This service is, has been and seemingly will be: FREE. So while emotions are running on the hot side of the guage, let's remember; it is FREE. Adobe owes no one anything. Now who's to blame, really? We, the people are to blame. Why? Because everyone has been ok with the fact that one company essentially designed and released a technology for streaming from the net. One company. And almost all of us are using this one company's technology to stream; for FREE.
But now we are not ok with it when, after we are prompted to update, we have the issue of it not working? We all never saw the ridiculously high potential for this one company to screw things up, intentionally or otherwise? What the ramifications, that we are now experiencing, might be? Nah, we just took it for granted that we would continue to be served. Well the serve came, everyone. Mistake or otherwise.
It's like this country [US], up until four-years ago. Everyone was either running around with snow shovels and hefty garbage bags to gather all the money they were making or sailing the seas of expectation and an, 'I am out there to get mine' attitude, and then the sh*t hits the fan and now people are complaining? About the very system until four years ago was spoon feeding them poolside with mai-tai's? While it was crushing everyone else in the known world?
No doubt it seems incredulous that a multi-billion dollar company has an IT department that would include in an update, for their own software, that would be inconducive to working. No doubt. But keep in mind: we are all either using browsers by Apple or MS. Anything happens to these browsers, including a virus or anything else that threatens our use of them and...?
So climb off the haughty, 'I deserve' crap and walk on the solid ground of trying to resolve this issue here at Adobe and around the net. If we were to band together, as the 99%, we could solve this, no problem. But then that holds true with resolving this fictitious economic downturn nonsense, that we solidly take for truth at face value, because our mainstream media says so. But no other species on this rock flying through space would know what the f*ck we were talking about.

Error: Flash Player "Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem ..."

I get the following message as soon as I boot up my PC:
"Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
According to Adobe, this is the first time they've heard of this issue.

Unchecking auto updates does not stop the message for me.
Sorry to hear that too. I actually recommended this to a few friends who were having the same issue, and it worked for them.
But, I'm wondering.... Have you tried disabling the check for updates settings in both the (Window's Control Panel's) Global settings manager and the (online) Global Notifications Settings panel? (That's the one on this page -- http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l ) On that page, click on the "Globe with the Check Mark" tab and make sure that the box is blank.
Hope this helps.

Audio and video problem when streaming after flash player update

After i updated to the latest flash player (11.7) I have problems with video streaming. The video plays but after a while the audio stops and the video will keep playing but will also stop after a few seconds. Is the new flash player update at fault?

hello volden, your system details list two versions of the flash plugin (Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700 & Shockwave Flash 11.6 r602) as being installed in firefox, which can lead to problems.
please try to use the [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html flash uninstaller provided by adobe] to remove both versions and afterwards only install the current plugin from https://www.adobe.com/go/getflash

Problems after flash player update with firefox

I have problems with video streaming on firefox after the flash player updated to 11.7. The video plays but the audio suddenly stops while the video continues to play but will also stop after a few seconds. Does anyone know what may cause this problem?

Hello,
Flash Player installs to the Windows directory that standard user accounts do not have access to, therefore, Admin access is required for installation.

Flash Player Update Service Problem

Hallo,
I use Firefox, Vers. 13.0.1. and Adobe Flash Player Vers. 11.3.300.262
According to the new installation of Firefox 13.0.1. and the above version of AFP the problem of AFP crashing after closing Firefox was resolved.
However, I now have the problem when AFP trys to Update. I constantly receive ther error message:
"Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and must end the process."
I receive this message several times per day.
This message may be different in the English language, as I am in Germany and receive naturally the German translation.
I work under Windows XP.
Can anyone give me a tip?

That's one of the many reported bugs that (hopefully) Adobe is working on now -- See: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4534831
As a quick fix to the problem, you might try disabling Flash Player's "auto search for updates" feature.
Go to this page -- http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l
Click on the "globe-checkmark" icon tab.
Click on the check-mark in the box next to "notify me when an update to adobe flash player is available" to clear it.
After you do this, right click on the screen, and in the drop down menu scroll down to "global settings..." and left-click it. This will call up the global settings manager, which is located in Windows Control Panel. (You can also access this program directly from your Windows Control Panel, but I don't know what sub folder it's in for Windows XP.)
Click on the Advanced tab, and then click on the box next to "Never Check for Updates."
The auto update feature can be re-enabled once the problem is fixed. In the meantime, you can periodically check for updates, and download them, right from this page -- http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

Problems viewing videos and trailers after the lastest Flash Player update

I have Windows 7 - 64 bit, I use Firefox 11 (latest version) and Chrome (latest version); however, since I have installed the latest Flash Player update, I cannot view any trailers or some videos. Youtube works fine, but other sites dont (I just get a green screen). Please can someone assist me? I have tried the "Help" section for Flash Player and it hasn't been too helpful.
Thanks in advance!
Ok, I found the problem, my hardware acceleration was set to enabled, once I disabled it, I had no problems viewing any of my sights that used Flash.

You might want to update your driver, particularly if you have an NVidia GPU. Here's a post where we describe this process and ask for additional details so we can resolve this for others.

Flash Player Update disables "restore all windows from last session" in Safari on Mac

I am on Mac OS 10.9.5, using safari 7.1.2. Adobe Flash Player Update loses all safari windows when after update the installer automatically opens safari and just opens flash player website; the "restore all windows from last session" is grayed out in history. The "reopen last closed window" is also grayed out. It has been happening ever since and happened again when I just installed Flash Player ver 16.0.0.257.
For all other normal working situation I can close safari and reopen and see that I can "restore all windows from last session" and there is no problem. But on flash Player install (set on manual install), the problem is annoying and costs me a lot of time to restore one by one from history. I do not think this is a Mac or a Safari issue, but will update to Mac Yosemite help if Adobe Flash Player is updated differently in that setup?
Please help.

Update: I called adobe flash player technical support phone number 1 877-587-1877. They want $59 (warranty only 6 months) to fix this problem as they use a third party to solve this issue; they themselves provide no support. Or buy the paid version. They insist it is my network issue which I absolutely can not believe.
It is adobe Flash player update that forces reopening of safari and wracks the safari losing all windows from last session. That is not my network. Adobe does not have a proper safari compatible flash player update.
Besides, this is a known problem at Adobe and they are not fixing it and want money to fix it one person at a time! They also shared that 25% to 30% of the installations have this problem... wow!! and they still will not fix it in a general update! I wonder if safari has a plug in update that can fix this?

Running without Adobe Flash Player Updater Scheduled Task

I'm trying to understand how to avoid installing Adobe Flash Player Updater Scheduled Task.
I am also unable to remove the Scheduled Task using a script that works on other tasks, on the same workstations.
Is there an mms.cfg setting that will instruct the installer to skip the Task?
1) Uninstall the Scheduled Task from all workstations in my environment.
2) Install future updates without the Scheduled Task.
I have already tried mm.cfg with these lines:
AutoUpdateDisable=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0
It still runs the update process every hour.
I have explained that it hasn't been causing a problem, but running this many processes on so many computers for no reason is causing some concern.
My organization also does not allow big bang automation included with this product.
Has anyone managed to shut off the Updater process from running?
Thank you

Hi Ethan,
try creating an MST file, with Fx, Wise package studio...
Edit the CustomAction “NewCustomAction1” added the parameter “-au 2” to the Command line argument.
you should do that for both:
install_flash_player_11_active_x.msi
and
install_flash_player_11_plugin.msi
If you are using both of them..
Or you can delete the scheduled task with schtask /delete "taskname"
