Flash Player won't display content in IE

The Flash 9 player on a system in our organization will not
display content. Instead the flash window disappears and is
replaced with a double quote symbol ("). Removal of the flash
player, rebooting, then reinstalling gives the same result. It does
this with multiple users (different logons) on this same system.
System is XP Pro SP2 with IE6. I've also tried resetting the
Security and Advanced options in IE back to defaults with the same
result. I cannot find anything online about this problem. It was
happening on another system here in the office but that system was
wiped and reimaged due to other problems going on.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Flash Player won't display on site page...

We are trying to put just a flash video and player on a site. No web pages just a demo video for a client. We created a blank HTML index page and insert the FLV into it. Select progressive download and resized it. The FLV is located on the local hard drive of the PC. We can preview and play the FLV in Dreamweaver, but as soon as we upload the script folder and the other files written the FLV doesn't show up on the page. The page name shows up in the browser tab, and if we click different spots on the page you can see a shaded outline where the player should.. but no player. This appears to be a simple process but not working for us... We are overlooking something. Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Here are the files generated and uploaded:
Files:
Clear_Skin_1.swf
index.HTML
FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf
PSV_ Demo.flv
Scrips folder:
expressInstall.swf
swfobject_modified.js

Flash player won't install in windows 7

Flash player won't install in windows 7
This is what I get when trying to use "FLASH PLAYER HELP", as you can see, my flash player and OS are NOT listed and when asked on left side of screen if "THIS WAS HELPFUL", I clicked NO and could not complete my response.
HOW DO I FIX THIS??? THERE ARE SEVERAL ITEMS THAT REQUIRE FLASH PLAYER & I CANNOT GET IT TO WORK. AFTER DOWNLOADING (AT LEAST4 TIMES) IT SAYS EVERYTIME "INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL"

Download the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header and save it to disk, then close all browser windows and run the downloaded installer.
If you still have problems, please post the contents of the FlashInstall.log file in

Flash player won't install on safari 7.0.3 any hints?

flash player won't install on safari 7.0.3 . I can download but the install stops at 50%. I have allowed plug ins.
any hints?

jabenn, I believe this to be caused by an issue with the Flash Player Install Manager, which Adobe is aware of.
As a first step, you could try removing it from the folder Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Flash Player. If you see a folder in that location entitled "Flash Player Install Manager", you need to trash it (you will need to enter and Admin password to authorise that step). This is recommended by Adobe. Now try again.
If that still fails, you can either follow the full Uninstall / Re-install process set out here: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1267823 ... or use my three-step workaround to save time, hassle and restarting. This starts at the scenario described in your initial post (i.e. a stalled installation):
Force quit Adobe Flash Player Install Manager
Locate and mount the Flash Player Installer disk image with Disk Utility
Locate the Adobe Flash Player installer package within the Install Manager app and run the installation from Finder
Hope this helps. Enjoy.
--- Those steps in detail:
1. Force quit Adobe Flash Player Install Manager
Press these three keys together: Cmd + Option (or Alt) + esc
Select Adobe Flash Player Install Manager in the popup window titled "Force Quit Applications"
Hit return or click the button labelled "Force Quit"
2. Locate and mount the Flash Player Installer disk image with Disk Utility
Open Disk Utility (in Applications/Utilities folder or find it with Spotlight)
On the left hand side, your attached drives and mounted volumes are listed above a horizontal line. Below that line you should see one or more disk images (named e.g. something.dmg). These are recently accessed disk images - including one containing the adobe updater.
At or near the bottom of that list you should see something called decryptedFile.dmg
Under that you might see a (greyed out) volume image called Flash Player
Double click decryptedFile.dmg (or the Flash Player volume if you can see it - it makes no difference).
This should mount a volume titled "Flash Player" and automatically open a finder window showing the contents.
The volume "Flash Player" will show up in your Finder sidebar and on your desktop (unless you've chosen not to show External Disks in Finder preferences)
3. Locate the Adobe Flash Player installer package and run the installation from Finder
You should by now have a Finder window open showing the contents of the volume "Flash Player". If not, open a new Finder window and click on Flash Player in the sidebar. The sole contents are an app called Install Adobe Flash Player.
Right click the item "Install Adobe Flash Player" and select "Show Package Contents" from the contextual menu that appears.
This opens a new window showing a folder called "Contents". Open it by double clicking to reveal the contents including a folder called "Resources".
Locate and open the folder "Resources" and look for a file called Adobe Flash Player ("Adobe Flash Player.pkg")
This is the Installer Package for the update. Double Click it.
Don't be put off by the words "Welcome to the Adobe Flash Player Installer" - this is not the Adobe Flash Install Manager (the one that failed you earlier) this is Apple's "Installer" app.
Follow the steps to the end then eject the volume Flash Player in the normal way (e.g. Finder sidebar)
Open the Flash Player control panel to check the current version has now been updated.
Don't be put off by "PPAPI Plug-in is not installed" - you can ignore it.
Some steps may go differently if you are running a different version of Mac OS X ( I use 10.6.8 and wrote my guide accordingly).

Flash Player Won't Install - ActiveX and "Currently In Use" errors

Hi all,
I can't get Adobe Flash Player 10.3 to install. I've followed the subinacl steps (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/494/cpsid_49419.html) and all other suggestions about using the uninstaller, rebooting and reinstalling. I'm a smart guy, but can't figure this one out. Does anyone have any suggestions?
System:

Thanks for any suggestions you can offer.

Can you give us the full error message you are getting?

Seem to have tried everything. i.e. chrome, firebird, archived flash players, etc. All not supported. Any insight??? It started when I tried to upgrade current flash player and it said I needed to uninstall current version, which I did, and then it wouldn't download the current one giving me the not supported story! Please help!!!!!!

Hi Andy, that is correct, they don't support PPC Macs anymore.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!

Flash player won't play on home pages

My flash player won't play on my browser's home pages. My OS is : windows 7 64 bit ultimate and my browsers are : Mozilla,Chrome, and IE. I have owned this machine since laborday 2012 and all of them worked in the begining. This has been going on for a couple of weeks and I would like to resolve it. Video works normally in places such as youtube,but will not run on the browsers home pages. The strange part of it is that it will run the advertisements,but after that is done it will just set there with the loading icon going for awhile until a message come on that states that the stream could not be found. I just got done checking each browser to see if the players are up to date and they all where current.. Don't know what else to try. Any suggestions ? Thanks
Ted

Adobe Flash Player won't stop asking to install.

I'm using windows 7 and Mozilla firefox, but this problem happens even when I don't have a browser window opened.
Adobe flash player won't quit asking to install. probably once a minute i receive a (UAC)request to allow adobe flash player to install. Even with no browser windows open. EVEN WHILE I AM WATCHING FLASH VIDEOS, it is telling me to install it. It literally interupts everything I am doing, even when I'm not browsing the internet.
I currently have it completely uninstalled as far as i know. I used the adobe uninstaller available on this site. So there's no flash player or shockwave player installed on my computer... still receiving this request every minute or so.
It's ridiculous.
I tried running a virus scan, because thats the only thing I could possibly think of that would be this irritating, and it says that my computer is clean.
Is there some secret files somewhere I need to delete? I'm thinking of deleting the activex install files. I keep getting "The ActiveX Installer (AxInstSV) service entered the running state." in my event viewer, which seem to coincide with this issue.

I finally got it fixed but I'm not sure what fixed it.
here's everything i did:
Uninstalled all browsers.
Uninstalled all adobe stuff.
Uninstalled Java
Deleted anything left behind (i left browser stuff though because i wanted it to save my passwords and such).
disabled activexsvinst or something service. The activex installer service.
Used CC cleaner to clean up registry
Made sure to delete almost everything in user/local/temp folders and such (where adobe and java store stuff usually. I dunno might want to be careful doing this cause i dont know if there's important files there. Also some folders won't let you delete it but that just means you have to go inside the folder and select all then delete. The only file that should be in one of thosetemp folders is like fxsapidebug or something, in my opinion.)
rebooted
ran CC cleaner again.
rebooted
not sure if this helped but i also used HIJACKTHIS and uninstalled some browser helpers that didnt get deleted. In particular there was an adobe one i think. Cant really remember tho. Now that i look at hijackthis again, it couldn't have been this because the browsers helper stuff is still there.
I also ran about 500000000 virus scans with multiple scanning programs and none of them detected anything.
I've reinstalled Mozilla and flash and haven't had any problems since.
Hope this helps anybody else with the same problem.

Downloaded latest Safari update that informed me that older versions of Adobe Flash Player were being disabled and then advised me to go to Adobe and down load latest version of Flash Player. Did that, but Flash Player won't play swf files, which it did before. (Instead of opening, it comes up as a page of code).

every time i click retry the same thing happens! why is this! HELP

The above link is for the ActiveX installer (Internet Explorer).
Use the appropriate download links in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
If you are on a 64-bit system, use the 64-bit installer(s); you will then also be able to use Flash under the 64-bit version of Firefox: Waterfox.

Did you install both the ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and plugin (for Firefox)? And both browsers show the same problem?
On Internet Explorer
is Shockwave Flash object enabled (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/885448)?
is ActiveX Filtering disabled (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968)?
