Have adobe flash player on chrome but isn't working on firefox, cannot install it I get a message that I haven't got the permissions to do so.

I have flash player in google chrome but not in firefox. When I try to simply allow flash player in firefox it is not listed. I have the only account on my computer so I am the administrator yet it states I do not have sufficient permissions to install flashplayer although it is already on my computer. I will attach a .bmp screen shot of the error message, but this is what it says if you don't want to open a pic from someone you do not know. :)
"a required file (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe:5) could not be written due to insufficient permissions.
Please visit the following link for troubleshooting tips:
Troubleshoot Flash Player installation for Windows
I have tried with my antivirus (Avast free version) running and also with it disabled.

hello, please try the windows exe-installer for plugin based browser from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and see if this works to install the adobe flash player. otherwise you'd have to contact adobe's support since that doesn't appear to be a problem directly related to a mozilla product...

    Hello, Edward. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I think the best option would be to completely uninstall all components of iTunes in the order specified of the article below.  Once this is done attempt to install iTunes again.
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

  • I play pogo games, I have the updated adobe flash player, but when I go to play a flash game FF states I don't have adobe flash player plug in, but I do have it..what do I do ?

    Firefox keeps telling me I don't have adobe flash player, I do have it I just uninstalled and reinstalled it today

    There are two version of Flash, ActiveX for IE and Plugin for other browsers. You need to install the Plugin version for Firefox.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />
    See this: <br />

    Install it directly from Adobe. Ensure that you use the uninstaller before installing.

  • Constant Error; Adobe Flash Player 11.4 r402 has stopped working. But NOT running Trusteer Rapport.

    I am experiancing this unbelieveably annoying and constant Flash error;  Adobe Flash Player 11.4 r402 has stopped working.
    But NOT running Trusteer Rapport, I never have, and it's not even installed on my computer.  So what's causing this?

    There were a couple AntiVirus/AntiMalware products that keep coming up, but I haven't validated that in the lab and don't want to call anyone out publicly without reporting the issue to them first.

If you could tell me what antivirus/antimalware products and versions you have installed, that would be helpful.
    So, third party stuff aside, I'd like to know more about the crashes your seeing:
    1.) Please provide links to the Firefox crash reports.  If you have multiples, the first few would be great.
         In Firefox, type about:crashes in the address bar
         If the link starts with "bp...", it's already been submitted -- just right-click on it and copy the link, and paste it into the reply here.
         If not, click it to submit it, and copy the subsequent link.
    2.) In firefox, type about:support
         Just copy and paste the output into the reply.
    3.) In Firefox, type about:plugins
         Please copy and paste the output into the reply
    4.) Please provide the output of the DirectX Diagnostic Utility
         Click Start > type "dxdiag" [enter]
         Click Save All Information
         Copy the output of the file into the reply, or use Adobe SendNow/DropBox/PasteBin to share the file.
    5.) If you can provide an exact URL and step-by-step instructions on repeating the crash (if it's consistent), that would be really helpful.  My goal is to build out a configuration that matches yours as closely as possible, reproduce the problem and then debug it.
    If you're not comfortable sharing that diagnostic information publicly, send me a private message.  Just click my name and use the options on the right.
    Thanks!

  • Im trying to install adobe flash player and it says i need to close firefox to continue i have and it still says its not closed

    Im installing adobe flash player and its telling me to close mozilla firefox to continue. i exited off the internet but it still says i need to close it

    Download and installation are two separate steps. The Adobe Flash '''installation''' procedure requires that Firefox be closed before installing Flash.
    orange Firefox button > '''''Exit''''' or File > Exit to close Firefox. Then wait a minute or so before starting to install Flash.

  • I can't access most internet pages because I don't have adobe flash player for my powerbook and the download doesn't seem to work?

    I can't access most internet pages because I don't have adobe flash player for my powerbook and the download doesn't seem to work?

    The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to FP requireing an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I fould a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Do ipads have adobe flash player?

    I was wondering if ipads have adobe flash player like you canplay in the internet and watch videos without it being apple before i actually buy an ipad,

    @ElGatoNegroXIII The iPad do not run (native) Adobe Flash and Apple made the best decision for performance and security. Apple is pushing the future of the Web and the name is HTML5.
    @fanboy512 The sites are not changing to be iOS compatible, is also changing for ALL devices that are HTML5 capable like most modern Android and Windows Phone 7 devices, not just for iOS devices.
    One single example from many is Adobe just announced HTTP Live Streaming (a protocol developed by Apple) to the Adobe Flash Media Server so all iOS or any HTML5 device including the Motorola Xoom can stream Live or On Demand video using this Media Streaming protocol when Flash is not available. There is a video by Adobe demonstrating this on both the iPad and Xoom.
    I'am a web developer and I and tell you this is going to the right direction.
