Help installing updating Flash Player.

I can't get beyond the "I have read and agreed to the terms" screen. It asks me to click on "read the license" which I do. I scroll down. Seems like I've read it all. Go back to the screen and it doesn't recognize that I've read it so won't let me install? What's the trick. Used to be a quick agreement to agree to now there's a zillion choices.

This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
1.) Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
2.) Download the stand-alone installer from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

Hi Blanca rey
You Can try Uninstalling Flash Player using - Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS
and Use the Offline Flash Player Installer for Mac (Safari and Firefox) from here - Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac
Hope it helps,
While you try the above suggestion, can you also share the Version of Mac on which you are updating Flash Player and how are you doing it?
Thanks

I need help installing adobe flash player 10.2.

Web sites tell me I need to upgrade/install a flash player, but when I do try to install adobe 10.2, it was giving me failed error message. I tried temporarily disabling my Nortons anti virus and firewall. I also unclicked so Adobe would not include Mcafee, which I don't want. I uninstalled all older versions of adobe( except Reader.) I am on Compaq laptop, OS is Windows Vista 32 bit. Can anyone talk me through this endless loop??

Hello,
Please try the following way:
1.Open "Start", then in the "Start Search" bar input "regedit", then click "Enter"
2.In the opened "Registry Editor", find the key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Macromedia -> FlashPlayer -> SafeVersions" and delete it.
3.Download the latest Flash Player from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, and install it.
Thanks

Help installing macromedia flash player

Hi, I am having trouble installing macromedis flash player. I
am on the adobe web site download page, click on the download and
then a few seconds later it says installation successful. I do not
get any dialog box, gold security bar. But, when I visit websites I
get a message that says I need the newest version of the flash 6
plug in, and links me back to the download page. I did a search of
my computer for macromedia flash and could not find anything,
although it could be under a different name.
I am confused, how do I fix this? Thanks in advence!

Hi
Flash 8 has a problem with limited users. check your level in
'User Accounts' in Contol panel.
Also in 'Add or Remove Programs' you will see if Flash is on
your system.
If you are a limited user get an administrative user to set
your account type to administrator temporarily ( XP Home ) or Power
user ( XP PRO ). Log onto your account, Uninstall Flash, then
reinstall from website.
If this doesn't work then please supply more info i.e
Operating system, Single or multiple accounts on computer, SP2 ?
Firewall/antivirus etc.

Try using the offline installer(s):
for Internet Explorer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe (save to disk);
for all other browsers http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe (save to disk);
close all browser windows, then run the downloaded installer(s).
If the error persists, can you post a screenshot of the error pop-up?

Possible fixes to install/update Flash Player in IE 9

OK just spent a couple of hours attempting to get IE 9 (32-bit) to install Flash 10.2.153.1. Tried all the troubleshooting advice - turned off security, etc.
Problem: When clicked on download button, the download page would come up but nothing happened.
Solution: Discovered setting in IE 9 called "Active X Filtering". It's located in the Tools Menu/Saftey section. If it has a check mark, un-check it and try Flash install again. This solved my problem - hope it helps others.
FYI - I'm running Win7 64-bit OS. After also unchecking "ActiveX Filtering" in IE 9 (64-bit), the 64-bit Flash Player preview "Square" could also be downloaded and installed.
If nothing else works try the MANUAL INSTALLER located at:
Flash Player 10 ActiveX (Internet Explorer 32-bit) http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
Flash Player 10 Plugin (All other Windows browsers, such as Firefox or Google Chrome) http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Have a good day.

Hi, Thanks for your input. Just to add a bit of info, when Win7 came out with the SP1, this was included with that also. Whether this is turned on by default I haven't heard.
I agree on the Manual Uninstall/Install also. Now Google Chrome is embedded with Flash Player and updates on it's own.
Glad you figured it all out:-)

Installing update Flash Player on Windows 8.1

Dell Inspiron 660, Windows 8.1, Flash player pre-installed as noted in control panel at 14.0.0.145. I would like to update to Flash player 14.0.0.176. Is that possible and how would I do that? The note that comes up at Adobe's website is that the flash player is pre-installed so I don't have to install it. Well, yes, but it is dated, so I do. You would think it would just do it automatically like Java, but no.

Microsoft released a new Flash Player on August 12; here is the Security Advisory:

I need Help installing adobe Flash player please!

Hi,
So I have been stuck trying to download adobe flash player for quite a while because when I go onto youtube it says the flash is out of date. Here are all the different things I tried to get the download to work.
1)
First of all the adobe flash has been downloaded into my download folder. So when I click on it, the adobe installer pops up. I type in my password. Then the little screen appears to start downloading. However it abruptly stops; the window says "Installation encountered errors" "Error has been encountered. Close this window and try downloading again"
2)I find out I have to quit the safari application when downloading the adobe flash. So I quit safari and try downloading the Adobe flash. The Installation error pops up again. So I guess that must not be the problem.
My current flash version is 15.0.0
3) I check to make sure that the flash player is enabled by my Safari browser. I did notice that the help page is slightly different from my own computer.
I don't have the "Allow Java" plug in, and I don't know if thats something I need to install?
What else do I need to do to download the flash player
Thanks in advance

What kind of phone?

Installing Updated Flash Player

I have tried to install an updated version of flash player several times. When I come to step 2, it reads "blocked plug-in". How do I install this program?

Spotlight search “Flash Player.plugin” (Search “This Mac” and choose "Show All in Finder")
Right click the Plugin and select “Open Enclosing Folder” Trash the Flash Player.plugin and flashplayer.xpt files.
Go to: [user]/Library/Preferences.
Note: You'll need to hold the "Option" key when you click "Go" from the Finder menu to access the [user] Library:
Without the "Option" key
And WITH
Trash the Macromedia folder there.
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support. Trash the Macromedia folder there.
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Preference Panes (not Preferences, but Preference Panes). Trash the Flash Player.prefpane file there.
Empty the trash.
Download the Flash Player (For Mac OS X) again if necessary.
Quit Safari and go to your downloads folder. Double click the DMG to “mount it”.
It will appear on your desktop and a small window will open.
Double click the installer. If you see a warning, click “Open” to let it run.
Click “I have read and agree… etc.” and click “Install”. Enter your password when asked.
You may see the following: click “Force Close All” if you do, and then click “Retry”.
The installer will run.
Choose your update preference, and click “Done”.
Open Safari again and click Safari>Preferences (Cmd+,)
Go to the Security tab. Make sure “Allow plug-ins” is checked.

Cannot install Updated Flash Player

I've tried several times without success to update my Adobe Flash Player software to version 11.7.700.169. Here's what happens: Whenever I need to use Flash Player, I am told my current version is "vulnerable" and automatically connected with the Adobe installation page. I click on "Download Now," and a rectangle appears that says, "Preparing installation. Please wait," along with a progress bar. But once the progress bar stops and the rectangle goes away, no Opening dialog box appears. In fact, nothing appears. Does anyone know how I can get past this point or how I might update my Flash Player software another way? Thanks.
I have a ThinkPad T61 laptop with Windows XP Professional 32-bit operating system, and I browse with Firefox 20.0.1.

Problems installing/updating Flash Player

Hello
I am currently running Windows 7 64bit
I noticed that my web browser would hang when playing certain flash based adverts on web pages. I wasn't sure of this was a Firefox 4 problem or a Flash problem so thought to re-install flash player in the first instance and go from there
In add/remove programs I noticed that the version installed was 10.3.181.22 but in the addons section in Firefox it was showing as 10.3.181.14
Anyway, using add/remove programs I uninstalled Flash Player and rebooted my PC. I downloaded the 10.3.181.22 installer from the Adobe website but now when I try to run it I keep getting the error message “The installation encountered errors: Flash Player could not be installed because an existing version may still be in use. Please close all applications using Flash Player and try again”
However when I go into add/remove programs again Flash Player is installed as version 10.3.181.22. Checking the addons in Firefox it is showing as 10.3.181.14. The Adobe website also shows me as having WIN 10,3,181,14
I have been through the Troubleshoot Flash Player Installation webpage and tried the stuff there in but I am still having the problem. Has anyone seen this before or have any ideas as to what might be causing it?
Many Thanks

Hi, it sounds like some application that uses Flash may have not been disabled. Try this: Download and SAVE the Uninstaller to your Desktop: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer (if you want FP Installed in IE)
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
Close all browser windows, disable any instant messenger services as yahoo, msn, etc from the system tray(area near the clock)
Disable your realtime Anti-Virus.
Use the Administrator Account
Run the Uninstaller and then reboot(restart) your computer.
Check to make sure your Anti-Virus is still disabled.
Then Run the Installer for IE(if you want Flash Player Installed), then Run the Installer for FF. When finished, Reboot.
Turn your Anti-Virus back on along with anything disabled in the system tray.
Test each browser here, and you should be able to see the Flash Player logo(Red F) animate(spin)
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
You can print these instructions out to make it easier to follow since you will be offline until finished.
Thanks,

Trying to install updated Flash Player but after installing 51% message pops up saying quit Safari,

I downloaded and clicked the dmg to install latest update. It got to 51% complete and then stopped instructing me to close Safari. Sarfari was already closed and not running. Hit retry and got same message. Tried a reboot and install but still got same message. Don't understand why it says close when it is already closed?

It's probably still running somewhere in the background. If you are on a Mac, use the Activity Monitor to close running applications. On Windows use the Task Manager.

I need help installing the Flash player

The
problem I'm having is that at first there was a problem with the Active X so I followed one of the feeds to uninstall all of any different types of the program just in case there was mixed versions of the software and then reload the software after a reboot of the system. Now I'm getting different problems. The first was that the program couldn't find the DSOUND.dll file so I downloaded a copy of it and put it into my SYSTEM and SYSTE32 file folder that went away. Now I'm getting that it can't open the KERNEL32.dll file, the file is on the system and I copied the most recent date of the file into the SYSTEM, and SYSTEM32 file folder. I still get that it can't register the Active X and it won't load. This is a Hewlett Packard system running Windows XP Professional SP3. So if one of the techies could tell me what to do from here I would be most appreciative. Thank You Tim

Hi, If you are getting that message, then that is normally a permissions issue. This thread has Instructions for Uninstalling and Installing FP for IE. You can try that and if you still get that message, then that same thread has another procedure which you'll see.
AVG has a LinkScanner that can conflict and a couple of other, 3 I think in the browser. They don't block the Install of the ActiveX Control but may interfere with viewing Flash content.

Install problems Flash Player 9

I had adobe flash player installed last week (and
previously). Some things weren't working, so i uninstalled,
reinstalled. Today, I went to do two separate things using adobe
flash player, and it wouldn't work. I uninstalled again, went to
re-install and the message:
'Sorry, your platform not supported'
shows up instead of downloading.
What is this, and why do I have this when I just had adobe
installed last week?
Thanks for your help.
Beth

I have similar problems trying to install /update Flash
Player 9 r124 on a WinXP workstation. Despite having followed
Technical Note 19166, I am unable to install the player at all.
This is troublesome because it means I can't support my customers
on IE6 or 7, thus asking them to use Firefox or Safari.
These update problems only occurred the day after the big CS4
launch. Adobe, are you planning on addressing this issue?
