Help me-adobe flash player install box "run" or "saveas" will not pop open when I install or update

I have windows vista 64. I already have flash player13 and reader x 10.1.9 but I can not get FLASH back.
It wasn't working on youtube. So I tried to update it. Went to adobe and clicked the yellow button to check to see if I had adobe flash. It said I didn't have it installed. I then went to control panel and checked programs and IT WAS installed. So I deleted it. Then went back to adobe page and tried to re-install the newest flash player.
Again. . . the dialogue box that normally pops up to choose;run or saveas Will not and Does not POP! I re-set my cpu 3 times during the process in order to get a clean go at it too.
Anyway thanks for your help and let me know please.
ps I figure this is something that may be fine in a week or two. But I still want to know wtf happened here and what did I do wrong.
Thanks
peace

Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Save that. Close your browser and run it. Then, it'll be installed.

  • WHen Adobe flash player wants to store data firefox will not let me respond tothe dialog box?/fiadobe flash player settings dialog boxes not reponding

    After I installed Adobe Flash 14.0.0.0.25 when I access a site that wants to store data locally, I am presented with a dialog box that gives me options: allow, deny, specify the isite. However, regardless of what I click nothing happens. it is almost like Firefox doesn't "see" the click. I went into Adobe settings manage and added the site as trusted, but that did nothing...

    Best is to allow Flash local storage globally and use the defaults.

  • Why am I having trouble running Adobe Flash Player 11 on my 2011 Macbook Air? I've downloaded and installed it repeatedly; yet when I try to open certain images online or play certain Youtube segments, I get the message, "You must have Adobe Flash 11..."

    Why am I having trouble running Adobe Flash Player 11 on my 2011 Macbook Air? I've downloaded and installed it repeatedly; yet when I try to open certain images online or play certain Youtube segments, I get the message, "You must have Adobe Flash 11..."  My computer tells me it is installed and running.

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 5.
    1. If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, sign in to your YouTube account and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    2. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
    3. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    4. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    5. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    6. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    7. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

  • Adobe Flash Player Installer Box Showing Up Blank?

    My laptop is running Windows 7 and I'm trying to install the newest version of Adobe's Flash Player for Firefox 14.0.0.125. Everything goes fine until I get to the Adobe Flash Player Installer box, it just shows up as a blank black box. I've retried many times now and the Installer box still shows up blank. I've even waited to see if it was maybe just slow downloading but I've had the Installer window open for at least an hour now and It's still blank. Is this an issue with my laptop and if so can I get help with it or is this an issue with the Adobe website?

    Try using these installers
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite

    Is there a reliable and secure alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite?  I keep getting websites telling me that I can see a video because my Flash Player needs to be updated.  But I haven't wanted to install it as I've heard negative things about it and Macs.  Is there an alternative to Flash Player?  And if so, what is it and where do I find it?

    Being that Flash is very insecure, I've completely removed it from my MacBook Pro. The best alternative is to uninstall Flash from your system and download Google Chrome as it has Flash build into it and you're not vulnerable unless you're browsing in Chrome. If Safari is your main browser, as mine is, then you need to open Safari Preferences, go to Advanced and click the checkbox for 'Show Develop menu in menu bar'. Once you've done this, the Develop menu bar menu shows up and you can click it and choose 'Open Page With' and choose Chrome. It is a bit cumbersome, but it removes the vulnerability when browsing in Safari as many sites are now using HTML5. Hope this help.

  • PDF error A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly.

    When opening a PDF of a website using Acrobat 9.0 Professional, I am recieiving the following notification.
    A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly.  If it continues to run, you computer may become unresponsive.  Do you want to abort the script?
    The error does not occur when viewing the live website from which the PDF was made.
    I recieve the same error when trying to open the PDF on other PCs using Adobe Reader 9.
    I have updated the flash player on each of the PCs as well.
    I am wondering if anyone has any ideas or insight regarding why I am recieving this notification.
    Thank you

    I'm suddenly getting the same error message, on a variety of web sites.  I'm running Windows Vista on a fairly high-end desktop, and I haven't added any new software lately.  This just started up out of nowhere.  When searching for this error message on the web, people are asking this same question all over the place, and no one has an answer.  Does Adobe ever monitor these forums?

  • "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it continues ...

    I'm continually getting a "movie script error" in regards to
    a looping interactive. The following message: "A script in this
    movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it
    continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you
    wish to abort the script?" frustratingly comes up despite numerous
    startups and taking off information from the server. It seemed to
    occur slightly after uploading some content to the admin server
    which delivers the info to flash upon rebooting. However this last
    time it just cycles through a small portion frantically. How do I
    find out where the problem is and fix it?
    any clues?
    thanks in advance, Patrick

    Hi Patrick and welcome to our community
    What product are you using? This is the forum for Adobe
    RoboHelp. Your post seems to imply that you are using a Flash
    output of some type. Is it FlashHelp? Or are you possibly dealing
    with Adobe Captivate? Or maybe Flash itself?
    Cheers... Rick

  • A script in this movie is making Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly

    How do I fix this? A script in this movie is making Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly, this is my problem when watching ABC tv shows.  I've got a 13" Macbook Pro i7 with 8g of Ram.  What do you all think is the problem

    I get this message which I interpret as saying what it means, the streaming/scripting is to slow to operate that site.
    In my case I was gaming(poker) I stopped for a meal and parked at the home page of the site (Skypoker) I went to rejoin a table and got the error.  When I picked YES the screen went into some sort rapid fast loop, when I picked NO it dumped me out completely from the entire site and closed it.   Now I have used this site with no problems at all, I contacted Sky support and he suggested delect temp files, history and reboot--did this no good.  I decided to do a complete scan just in case, no better.  I then decided to RESTORE by a couple of days, this worked but only the once, when I again left and tried to go back same problem.
    What mystifies me is nothing altered or changed on the pc or on the site (they asked me to make sure I had version 10 Adobe Flash).  So I decided do download again which I did but had no effect.  Clearly i can't keep on doing restore but why the problem have suddenly arose is still baffeling.   1. why bother with such an error warning if there is no solution or choice of causes to go through to investigate and or fix. 2. If speed is an issue at this point why doesn't the error quantify the problem or Adobe give us a device to measure the errant data stream instead of leaving us high and dry with an effect, probable reason but no supporting data.
    Sky appear stumped but obviously they are using Adobe on a commecial footing, I have asked them if they will seek support as so far there seems to be a don't care can't be bothered from Adobe, very disappointing

  • HT2506 After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer

    After updating my system to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 I can no longer view videos on Facebook or other sites. The only one I can view videos on is youtube. I have downloaded Adobe Flash player and still no luck. I cannot even open Preview on my computer anymore. Any ideas would be helpful thanks

    Merely clicking the Preview icon in the Dock doesn't cause it to open anything, unless you had one or more windows open the last time it quit.
    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
    1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    3. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    4. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
