Flash player wont work

flash player wont work

Hi
look at Safari-Help-Installed Plug-ins - does the flash plug-in show up there? just once? - could you copy/post the entry(s) for flash & shockwave here?.
Also look at your console & system logs after quitting/restarting safari & attempting to view those problem webpages - occasionally there's an entry there that helps identify the difficulty. If there is something - you might find this thread useful - esp the bit about rolling back QT
Finally ( for now ); even on single -user machines some people have found that /home/library/internet plug-ins/ folder has plug-ins inside it. Yours may well be empty, but if not - move the files somewhere else for now & quit/restart safari.

Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work?

I tried to play a game I love & I got this message: "To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is installed" So I went to your site to update my flash player & hit the "Test Flash Player" button & it came up
like this^^. I went to the suggestions your site provided & went to Manage add-ons to look for Shockwave Flash Object to enable it:
You can see that it is enabled by this picture I have provided. So it also asks me to make sure that ActiveX isn't clicked on & so I did:
As you can see it's turned off & I even tried it the other way where it has the spot checked & it still wont play. So I decided to see if I could reinstall it onto my computer & so in turn I got this message:
That is the message I got even after trying to delete Flash Player & reinstalling it. Now you can see my frustration with all this. Adobe Flash Player wont work after all steps taken, what haven't I done to make it work? I have a Windows 8.1 Pro, I use Internet Explorer which has the latest version on it, which is Windows Explorer 11 Version: 11.0.9600.17498 & I was also under the understanding that I also had the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on this computer as well. Can someone tell me what to do??

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

    Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have the below two files:

Adobe flash player wont work and wont reinstall can anyone help?

my adobe flash player quit working i uninstalled it and redown loaded it. several times but i keep getting this message [ blocked plug in ] what can be done?

First update to 10.6.8.
Two bugs, one affecting Apple's Mac platform and another attacking Microsoft's Windows, exploit certain Flash player vulnerabilities to install malware onto users' systems, reports ArsTechnica. While users of other operating systems like Linux have yet to report attacks, Adobe's advisory notes the exploit affects all platforms.
Designated as CVE-2013-0634, the first vulnerability targets the Safari and Firefox Web browsers running on OS X, and is also being used as a trojan to deploy Microsoft Word documents containing malware. For Mac users, the flaw affects Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.146 or earlier.
On March 1 Apple again blocked Flash Player for Lion and Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5660
The Adobe Flash patch can be found on Adobe’s website, and users can visit this page to check if their software is the most curent version.
You should uninstall any previous version first, and repair permissions after installing the new version.
If you still get a ‘plug-ins blocked’ message:

Flash player wont work please help

I have flash player installed and recently no videos, for example youtube, will work on ANY browser. I have tried troubleshooting and resetting browsers and nothing has worked, I cant watch any videos, please help!
It looks as if the videos keep restarting 2 or 3 times then crash altogether if that helps

This is super weird, particularly because the ActiveX (for Internet Explorer), NPAPI (for Firefox) and PPAPI (for Chrome) browsers are all pretty different. This is definitely not the normal pattern.
Does *any* Flash content work? Maybe something old like http://www.homestarrunner.com? My guess is that it doesn't.
I definitely need some more clues:
- Operating System and Version
- Browsers and Versions
- Any anti-virus/anti-malware/firewall/save-flash-video-to-disk kind of stuff installed?
- Any JavaScript blockers or privacy plug-ins that might block JavaScript from executing?
My gut feel says reboot, Uninstall Flash Player | Windows, then download a fresh copy of Flash Player for Firefox and Internet Explorer by using each browser to go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer.
Hopefully that helps.

Flash player wont work in opera

A couple of days ago I asked for help with my flash player. The answer I got didn't work, I have a hp dv7 entertainment pc 32 bit laptop. I ended up uninstalling flash player and re installed it and got it working in firefox and Explorer but not in Opera. I have tested the flash player and it is working and I have it enabled in Opera but I still have to click to activate to play games. How do I fix this problem?

I also got the same problem with Flash Player on Opera browser.
I use windows 8.1 with a 64-bit operating system and and a x64-based processor. The browser is Opera 11.0 and the Adobe Flash 16.0.0.305. When i attempt to view a video and a specific website the flash player displays its loading circle status before it would normally buffer but continues to load indefinitely and when i attempt to select a quality in the settings (which quality doesn't matter) the player displays a static like picture with he message: An error occurred please try again later, learn more. This has not changed since around 1pm EST. I can however watch YouTube videos without any such difficulty. This is the page in question:http://www.heightcelebs.com/celebrity-quotes/
Any help with this issue would be much appreciated, thank you.

The details on why Adobe dropped support for Android are here, but yeah, we haven't released an Android Flash Player since late 2012.
Adobe roadmap for the Flash runtimes | Adobe Developer Connection
There are a few alternatives that you can use to get Flash on your phone. They're mostly cloud-based web browsers, where they run Flash in the cloud and stream the content down to your phone. It works surprisingly well.

My adobe flash player wont work?

i downloaded an adobe flash player for this website: Vietnam holidays but when i go to back to that website or any website for that matter it still says i need to download it even though i followed all the steps to complete the download. i tried going back to the website for help but i couldn't find any useful information.

Hi,
What does "still won't work" mean? Flash Player 10.3.183.90 is very old. You might find that many sites require a newer version of Flash Player to view content, perhaps this is what you mean by "still won't work". Depending on your system, you may be able to upgrade to OS X 10.6 which will enable you to install the newest version of Flash Player. There's lots of information on this on the internet. Just search for "upgrade OS X 10.5.8 to 10.6" or similar.

Adobe flash player wont work on 4.1

i just got a new phone the vers is 4.1.2 i always use adobe flash player but it says it only goes to 4.0.X is there a new update for it soon if so do you know if it will go up to 4.1?

Your tablet (Kindle or Galaxy) uses the Android Operating System.
Adobe stopped ALL development of Flash for Android last year. (July 2012) That includes Kindle as well as Samsung Tablets. Additionally, Samsung and Amazon have ended support for Flash in ALL of their newest tablet models.
The following is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):
"Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."
And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):
"The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.
If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.
If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:
Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.
The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.
Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:
Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."
See: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions. html
There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.
See also: "How do I manually install Flash Player on my Android device?"
You can find info about "Dolphin" for Android at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser It seems to be the browser of choice to play Flash content on an Android device.
Also, check the Android forums to see what their "gurus" recommend.

Flash player wont work on android anymore

I noticed this morning that chrome is no longer supporting flash on android devices. It tells me the same thing FireFox for android does that you need to update your browser and or flash plugin. I went ahead and checked updates for chrome and was fully updated. After that decided to uninstall and re-install the updates for it as well restarting my phone and still no luck. Checked adobe and says there hasn't been any mobile updates for flash since December. So was just hoping that this is just a temporary issue they are working to resolve? Checked on iPhone and chrome still seemed to work correctly with flash, was just android. I use a Galaxy S4 and had a friend of mine who also has another droid phone try and was the same issue for him. I've been using android phones for years and didn't change anything on my phone and the issue just appeared today.

Flash Player Wont Work On CBS

The flash player doesn't seem to want to work on CBS. It will load the commercials fine, but when it goes to the program it doesn't work right. It doesn't gear up right away and when it does it plays for a second and stops. About 20 seconds later it repeats this process. The flash player works on all other sites that use the flash player, just doesn't like CBS. Weird thing is, on my laptop it works fine.
Windoes XPSP3
Adobe Flash Player 10.1.53.64
Firefox 3.6.3
Used uninstaller program
Disabled hardware acceleration

If you are using the windows HOSTS file to block out unwanted content you may need to disable it. I do this
by renaming it when I want to watch 60 minutes on ABC.com. Then when I'm done I name it back to HOSTS. You'll need to do
a browser restart too. However if you are not using the HOSTS file then this is of no help at all.
good luck

Flash Player wont work on BBC site only

My flash play will only play part of the video screen in flash player on my macbook pro retina. I have tied to adjust the settings but they are greyed out. I have the latest flash update installed. It seems to be only on the bbc.co.uk site. Thanks

Try using Google Chrome, which has a built-in Flash plugin distinct from the one in Safari, and see whether you have the same problem. If you watch a lot of Flash-based video, I recommend you install it anyway. Two reasons:
1) The Flash plugin is, for some reason, less resource-hungry and more efficient (at least IME) - I certainly find my MacBook Pro runs cooler and with less fan noise.
2) It allows you to uninstall the generic Flash plugin from your system, thereby disabling Flash ads in all browsers, such as Safari. This causes websites that tend to feature Flash ads etc. to load more quickly, reduces internet bandwidth use and prevents unnecessary use of the CPU - oh, and of course cuts down on the number of petit-mal seizure-inducing ads…
Google Chrome has its own built-in "Click to Play" functionality, so that, if you wish, you can even choose which Flash videos to view on a case-by-case basis.
Though it may be a pain to use only one browser for Flash, it cuts down on headaches I find. When you're using Safari and need to view Flash on a webpage, simply go to the Develop menu (enabled in Safari > Preferences > Advanced), choose "Open Page With…", select Google Chrome and voilà!
HTH.
