HELP!! CANNOT download FLASH @ all

My mom (a Mac user) did something to my computer a PC when
she was here last week... loaded some mapping program and when she
was done she deleted it... only I think she got carried away. My
Flash Player is no longer on my computer. I have Adobe Reader but
everything regarding Flash is gone!!!
My HP is only four months old and has been EXCELLENT up until
now. I am a 'user' of the computer... I don't normally dork around
with settings and stuff because I am afraid of screwing it up and
not knowing how to fix... But here I am...
I have tried reloading from this adobe site the newest flash
player ... and I get the download page... without the download
button icon for me to push and iniate the process. It just isn't
there. At first I was having some kind of issue tied in with Java
and I managed to get that fixed and now I can at least 'see' some
little icons on certain pages, but I cannot download Flash Player
from the source.
I found a site somewhere suggesting to completely wipe any
remnants of flash from the computer so I managed to 'uninstall'
it... and now it doesn't show up as a program file at all. But I
still cannot load ANY version of Flash Player.
I run Internet Explorer and have nothing to do with Firefox
or Motzilla or those things.
Not sure if it matters, but I also cannot open my yahoo
instant messenger. I also get an error message (which lead me to
the Java issue) when I wanted to open my mail.
I know enough to really screw this up more, and now I know
enough to never let my mom near my computer again...
Does anyone know of a site that has a better 'help' area than
this one, and a bit more interaction. I am begining to think I need
to completely reset the computer.
Any advice would be extremely helpful.
Thank you
Suzanne

Thank you for replying...
I am referring to flash that lets you VIEW... I didn't even
know about the 'creative' side of Flash Player.
I am running Vista and have IE7, and I am fairly certain I
had Flash Player Version: 9,0,47,0 installed before it disappeared.
I have (had) my system set up to automatically update when new
things came out.
I have also noticed that there might be an issue with Quick
time... I do run iTunes on my computer, and have QuickTime. I have
changed all my defaults so Quick time is not the default.
Thank you for any help or direction you can point me too!
Suzanne

  • I cannot download flash.  I have windows 7 and using explorer.

    I cannot download flash.  I have windows 7 and using explorer.  When I download flash, it tells me that the download is successful but it isn't.  When I try to save it it is not saved where it tells me that it is saved.  I downloaded reader and that was successful.  I did disable shockwave in my addons because that was slowing yahoo opening up.  So when I download flash everything looks successful but then it is not there.

    Shockwave Player, or Shockwave Flash?  If you disabled Shockwave Flash, then you disabled Flash Player.

  • Why we cannot download flash player

    WHy we cannot download flash player..""

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
    Puffin
    SkyFire
    Photon Flash
    Browse2Go
    iSwifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

  • Why I cannot download Flash Player in my old Mac OS X, Version 10.4.11?

    I have an old Mac OS X Version 10.4.11 and I cannot download Flash Player.
    Can someone tell me why or how?
    Thanks,

    Adobe Flash Player - Downloads. Locate a Flash version that will work in Tiger. Or you can try upgrading the hardware and software in order to use the current version of Flash. But that would depend on exactly what hardware you have. Only Intel hardware can be upgraded to Snow Leopard and beyond.

  • I cannot download Flash Player on any of my browsers, yet all of a sudden, it isn't there anymore.

    I tried to download Flash player on all my browsers, and it doesn't work. It gets halfway through the download, and says "newer version of Flash Player already installed". But it ISN"T.  There is no Flash Player showing on any of the programs in the control panel. I have no idea why it says there's a newer version already installed.  Can anyone help?

  • Cannot download Flash Player 10

    I have been unable to download the latest flash player, so
    half of my websites no longer work. I get the error "Cannot
    download dll". I have called adobe customer service twice, and they
    have been unable to help. They gave me a url to download it
    www.adobe.com/go/full_flashplayer_win_msi/ but this gives me the
    error "Error 2330 C/Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash Get last error:
    1392" and will not install. I was told to try the forum as customer
    service could not help and there is no techical support.
    I am using Windows Vista and IE 7. I have java installed.
    Any help would be appreciated!!

    ADOBE FLASHPLAYER SOS!
    I use to be able to watch full episodes on www.abc.com and
    www.cwtv.com (I did on 10/12) but now it won't work. Now both
    websites say I need Adobe Flash Player. So I go to download it and
    even though it says "Download Successful". So I tried to go back
    into those websites to watch episodes and it still says I need to
    download it. I shut down my whole computer thinking perhaps I
    needed to reboot in order for it to take and effect and still
    nothing. When I go to "add and remove" programs it isn't there
    either. I even followed the instruction (I'm not sure if I did it
    correctly) regarding installing "SubInACL" and downloading
    "reset_fp10.zip file" but it still is not working. Someone please
    help!
    Well.. both ABC and the CW use the Move Networks player. This
    player somehow involves Flash Player, but I don't know how, it's a
    proprietary thing (abc and move and i think cw are all owned by
    Disney).
    So if it's just trouble with the full episodes, your best
    choice is to contact those networks.
    To determine if this is more of a Move player thing or a
    Flash Player 10 thing, just go to the root of
    http://www.cwtv.com/ and see if all
    the Flash Player content on the home page FP10 is working. They use
    lots of Flash on the site (but not for the full episodes, that's
    move player)
    So we need to clarify a few things here
    -- is it -only- the full episodes that fail?
    -- what OS and browsers are you trying?
    -- do other Flash sites work (youtube, hulu, etc..)

  • Cannot Download Flash Player 9

    I have a MAC OS 10.3.9 1.6GHz Power PC G 5 and cannot download the Flash Player 9. I get an error message that reads:
    The page “Macromedia - Flash Player” has content of MIME type “application/x-shockwave-flash”, but you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be available on this page:
    https://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer
    Do you want to open the page?
    Each time I go to that web page I and try to download it will not work. My kids use Nick Jr and no longer can get on. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you for your time and help.
    gg

    I'm not sure why you posted your question in the OS 9 Forum instead of the OS 10.3 (Panther) forum, but FlashPlayer 9 for OS X is available at this site.
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    OS 9 can't use anything later than FlashPlayer 7 (version 7.0.r70).
