  • When I try to download Adobe Flash Player, it says I need to quit out of Safari even when it's closed. How do I fix this?

    When I try to download Adobe Flash Player, it says I need to quit out of Safari even when it's closed. How do I fix this?

    Apologies for the slightly pedantic answer, but in application terms, "closed" and "quit" are two different things. An application such as Safari can have several windows open, and each of them can be closed using the red button in the corner.
    However, even after all windows are closed, the application is still running until you specifically quit it. You can tell it's still running by the small light under its icon in the Dock. If you hold your cursor down on the icon for a few seconds, you should see a pop up menu with the "Quit" option - click that to quit it. Or, click the icon once (this may launch a new window), then either go to the Safari menu and click Quit, or click cmd-Q, to completely quit the app.

  • Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year; would like a newer release.

    Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year (11 Feb 2013); would like a newer release.
    Can't find much about the standalone viewer, except in the Flash Builder docs, which says a .swf can specify to use it. I can't find a download link.
    Thanks, Doug

    You can download the standalone player (Projector) from https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you need to make the .swf file association manually.

  • Why am I reminded daily to update Adobe Flash Player. Do I need it and why?

    I do not know of which use is Adobe Flash Player? I am reminded daily to update to avoid problems with Firefox.
    I do not look movies or play games in the internet.
    When starting to update Adobe Flash Player, I get afraid by the accompanying questions for private data.
    Tell me what happens when I do not update Adobe Flash Player.
    Regards Gerhard

    It is recommended to update it as the latest version as it includes security updates. A lot of sites use Flash to display their content, it is not just used for movies and games.
    You can carry on using your current version of Flash, just be aware that it has published security holes.

  • Hotmail ad is causing Adobe Flash Player error...need a fix or workaround

    Hi,
    I'm using Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421 (64-bit edition) on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine and using Adobe Flash Player "Square" 10.3.162.28 ActiveX 64-bit.
    Whenever I check my e-mail on Hotmail, I get the following error:
    Here are some problems:
    1. When I click on "SETTINGS," the dialogue box closes, nothing else happens, and the problem doesn't go away, even after I restart the browser.
    2. The same problem occurs even when I use the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer with the latest Adobe Flash Player.
    3. The problem appears to be caused by a sidebar ad on the Hotmail home page.
    4. I must use Hotmail.
    5. I must use Internet Explorer for various reasons.
    I would like to not have this error box pop up all the time.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks...

    OK, here's the workaround I found:
    To fix the pop-up security error:
    1. Google "Adobe Flash Player Global Security Settings Panel". Here is the link I found:
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l#117502
    2. Select "Always allow" from the settings panel.
    3. Close the browser and re-start it.
    This may not be an ideal solution, but it has been extremely painful to have to close literally dozens -- if not a hundred -- error boxes that kept popping up every day while I check my e-mail.

  • What Adobe flash player version do I need for os x 10.3.9?

    I tried to install the new flash player 10 but they don't tell you you need os x 10.4 or better. So I deleted it. But then both Safari and Firefox started rainbow wheeling and freezing up every time it started to load a flash app from a web-site. So I uninstalled flash with the uninstaller they recommend, and then tried to find my old version to download, I figured it was 9, and after downloading the flash player "disk", I clicked it and the file shows some kind of .xpt file that I can't open or don't know what to do with, and an icon that says Flash Player.plugin that is transparent and I don't know how to add it to my browsers, it won't do it automatically. Please someone tell me they know what the problem is. This is the first time I have posted a question here.
    When my kid finds out she can't play her webkinz she's gonna kill me.

    Okay, that got the WebKinz site working again, so I guess it's been installed properly. I just don't know why both Safari and Firefox are still freezing up on web-sites I used to be able to watch no problem, like PGA tour shotracker, and sportsnet.ca. Guess I'll just have to wait until I can afford the os upgrade. Don't know whether I should wait until Snowleapord comes out. I'm quite dissapointed in how fast my os x 10.3 became obsolete after I bought my computer, but I guess I'll have to get used to it.

  • Adobe flash player 10.2.159 needed for nexus 7

    i have a nexus 7 tablet .and to watch a tv show on the tablet it says this content requires adobe flash player 10.2.159 and when i hit download, it says it is not supported on this devise.what do i do?thank you.

    Sorry, I could read only the first paragraph you wrote, then my eyes grew very tired and I couldn't continue.  It is very hard to read ALL-CAPS postings!
    But I understand that you need instructions to reinstall Flash Player; try this
    download the FP uninstaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html and save it to disk;
    download the FP installer(s) from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html and save it/them to disk - note that there are two different installers, the ActieX for Internet Explorer, and the plugin for all other browsers;
    close all browser instances, then run the downloaded uninstaller, followed by the installer(s).
    Now go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ - if you can see the Flash animation (rotating red 'F'), then Flash Player is correctly installed and working.

  • Flash Player 10 Hotkeys List Needed

    Friends,
    A client is using version 10.3.181.26 of Adobe Flash Player in IE 9 on Windows 7 64-it to view shows on CBS.COM. The shows play fine. However, she cannot jump around in the videos with the progress bar that appears when you hover the mouse inside the video display area, as she is totally blind and relies on keyboard shortcuts to initiate all operations on her computer. So I'm hoping there's a list of CURRENT hotkeys (shortcut keys) for the embedded version of the Flash player. Assistance with locating such a list would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully the player controls are completely accessible via the keyboard (and not just by way of the mouse). If they are not, that information would be useful as well
    Thanks in advance.
    Tom Hesley

    Thanks for the direction. It would be useful if Adobe implemented a "generic" set of hot keys in the Flash Player, that content providers could override with others if they saw fit.  This could guarantee at least, a minimally accessible player when the content providers opt not to define their own hotkey features. 
    Thanks again for your assistance, and I will mention this issue to CBS.COM.  Take care.

  • Ffirefox reads disabled for plugins Real player and Adobe flash player even when I enabled both. Why?

    There is a typed message that cant be removed in Firefox beside some plugins like Real Player 15t... and Flashplayer. So it seems that even though I downloaded both and enabled them, nothing is happening and when I connect to a site it says I need flashplayer 11.

    Your User Agent string shows that you do not have those plugins installed.
    Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:

  • Adobe flash player 10 .01 and Adobe flash player 10.32 for Firefox

    I was told to download the latest version of Adobe flash I believe, that was 10.32, because now I have delete it.  Both players, because I couldn't get it to install.  I have shut down the manager on Firefox version on 3.5 I really would like to know before I download anything else, which ones to my supposed to have been exposed to have both of them running on Windows XP home edition service pack three and Internet Explorer seven, because I didn't think I needed to upgrade that to eight, it probably just be more headaches.  I don't know, I just mean is that anybody have any ideas let me know.

    Flash10p.ocx
    FlashInstall.log
    FlashUtil10p_ActiveX.dll
    FlashUtil10p_AciveX.exe
    I originally uninstalled Flash Player 10 ActiveX and the Flash Player Plugin
    thinking they would both be reinstalled with the newer version. When I installed
    the newer version of Flash Player 10 ActiveX I noticed the Plugin was missing
    and wondered what happened to it. I didn't know it needed to be downloaded
    seperatly and I also didn't know what it was for exactly. As it is right now
    everything works and since I'm not using any other browser - downloading
    the Plugin isn't required. At least now I have an idea what the Plugin it was
    intended for and know it's not needed.
    Thank You.

  • Adobe flash player and reading pdf files.

         I've recently been having issues with Safari reading online pdf files and loading up sites using adobe flash player.
         I've somehow tracked down a temporary solve by going into Safari's "preferences", then the security tab.
         Where it shows "internet plug-ins" I have it checked so it can load adobe flash. But when it comes to reading pdf files (adobe reader)
         I have to uncheck "internet plug ins". So in turn I can read the pdfs, but not use adobe flash player.
         There seems to be a conflict between the adobe reader and flash player that I can use both at the same time.
         Any suggestions on how to correct this issue?
         Here's a screenshot of what I have. And if I have to delete one of these plug-ins how can I do this as I don't see any options to do so.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • Flash Player 10 works in Safari and Firefox, but not IE 8?

    Most times (not all) I load a page with Flash in IE, when I close, I get an error saying "IE has stopped responding" and then says it's something to do with Adobe Flash player. Since IE is the only browser that seems to freeze and stop responding due to Flash Player, could it be a problem with IE and not Flash Player?  If so, how do I fix the problem?  Please help.  I'm getting desperate.  I've been installing and uninstalling for at least two days now with no successs. 

    The error is "Internet Explorer has stopped working.  A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then when I click on the Windows solutions icon, it says:
    Adobe Flash Player has stopped working properly.
    To troubleshoot this problem, follow these steps:
    Click to go online and run the Flash Player  uninstaller
    In the File Download dialog box, click Run, and then follow the  instructions to uninstall flash player. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the  password or provide confirmation.
    Click to go online and install the Flash Player update
    I've done both these things for 2-3 days now.  Nothing works.
