[Help] Problem Installing Flash CS3

Hi there mates,
I have a problem here. I downloaded the 30 Days Trial version
of Adobe Flash CS3 Pro from this site to my Vista Laptop but when i
finished installing, theres an error box at the bottom of the
installer saying that Adobe Flash CS3 is failed to be installed and
even after i restarted computer i still have the same error.
Do anyone have any idea how to solve this problem of mine?
I'd be grateful if i can get a answer.
Regards to all...!

FYI: "Br" is the Bridge application - try launching that to
see if it fully installed.

    I am having problems instaling flash player 10, i am using windows 7 and when i try to dowmload it there is a window that comes up saying that it did not pass the integrity check can anyone advise me on what the problem is?

    Try downloading the offline installer(s):

    for all other browsers http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe (save to disk);

  • Problems  installing flash player. Learner

    I am experienceing problems installing flash player. I go to the adobe website and install the program and I am told it has been successfully  installed. No flash player  icon apppears on my desktop. When I press the windows start icon and click on "all programs" there is no evidence of the flash player. However when I click on" my computer" icon and go into uninstall/change the flash player program is there.I have spent quite some time installing, uninstalling and installing again without success
    I am using windows Vista. I am also using Kaspsersky Internet security. It is a private computetr so I do not think  I need administrators permission.  I have tried installing flash player using both interner explorer and Mozilla firefox.Please can anyone help. Many thanks.

    Shane, since you must be having problems getting a thread started, I'll just go ahead and try to help you here.
    Use IE and go to Help and click on About Internet Explorer. It should tell you sp1 or sp2.
    Also using IE, go to Tools, click on Manage add ons and look in all add ons for Shockwave Flash Object. Let me know if it is Enabled and if it is version 10.0.45.2 or says Flash10e.ocx.
    Then switch over to FF (Firefox) and find the plug-in SWF version 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is listed and Enabled.
    Post this info back to me.
    Thanks,

  • Please Help Me Install Flash player

    Yesterday I unintentionally uninstalled Flash player with a product named Perfect Uninstaller. During the process it states that the Item I uninstalled will be uninstalled now and forever. Every time I click "run" to install it starts for about one second and then stops completely. I'm beginning to think that they meant it and that there is some sort of blocking going on but that is just an assumption. I hope some can help. I am a novice obviously. I am using Windows XP.

  • Newbie problems installing Flash 11 and windows 7/SWF issues-PLEASE HELP!

    I am VERY new at Dreamweaver (llike four days in) - my church has a website & they need someone to take it over so I'm trying to help out while teaching myself something new.
    I was doing okay til now. I downloaded a free template to play with so as not to mess up their real site just yet. I was able to get the majority of the site up except for the top part with flash. Error message says: "this page contains some SWF objects that may not work properly in the most recent versions of IE. Dreamweaver cannot convert them to SWF markups. Please delete each of them and insert again" This mesage comes up on the index.html, index-1.html, and index-2.html pages.
    I deleted & re-typed everything that had an SWF in it (then realized maybe I only needed to do the ones with the .swf extension, duh on me!) but I'm still getting a gray box with the "f" inside.
    Additionally, I keep having to re-install Flash because it says I have to use version 10 or higher - the browserlab worked during the online lessons offered by Adobe, but now it won't work at all! I installed Flash 11 more times than I can count but it still won't work, yet when I go to my Programs flash it's installed twice - once as a 64 bit and once without. I'm assuming one of those can go.
    I'm familiar with HTML and have created smaller websites using templates on sites like Yahoo Business, Wix and Office Live and thought I could handle this, but it's really stumping me, thought there'd be a learning curve and trial/error but WOW! Much respect to all you web designers out there, this stuff is no joke!
    If anyone could please help me fix this problem and dumb your answer down as much as possible cuz I'm admittedly very lost! I'm worried that I'll have the same problem with the church site because they want some flash aspects. Did several internet searches & couldn't decipher the programmer jargon, nor could figure out if I was doing the suggested fixes correctly.
    Thanks in advance for the help from anyone! I have a brand new computer, dell xps15 only 3 weeks old, so it's not the computer!

    FYI:  Dreamweaver questions are better answered in DW's General Discussion Forum.
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/dreamweaver/dreamweaver_general?view=discussions
    Older versions of DW used an Active-X JavaScript to initialize Flash in IE browsers.  Adobe later switched to a different script in CS4 and again in CS5 and CS5.5 which uses SWF Object Replacement.  I suspect your Template was made with an older version of Flash & DW which is why you're getting the nag screens. 
    Option 1:   Preview the original template pages in browsers.  If it works,  ignore the DW error messages.
    Option 2:  Rebuild the Template by stripping all Flash object and embed code and removing links to any Flash supporting scripts.  Then re-insert your media.  Insert > Media > Flash...

  • Problems installing DW CS3 on second computer... help?

    The below sequence of events will be all needed to understand the problem.
    I initially installed Golive 5.0 on laptop 1 (This software is still on laptop 1).  I upgraded to Golive CS. (This software is also still on laptop 1).  I then upgraded to DW CS3.  This required the DW CS3 serial number AND the GoLive CS serial number in order to activate DW CS3.
    I later installed DW CS3 on laptop 2, which again required the DW CS3 serial number and the GoLive CS serial number to activate DW CS 3.
    In the meantime I trashed the original GoLive CS disc with serial number, along with the original Golive 5.0 disc and serial number, thinking these would not ever be needed again.
    I am now putting a new laptop into service (laptop 3).  I wanted to install DW CS3 on laptop 3, so I uninstalled DW CS3 from laptop 1, as I am retiring it from service.
    But the DW CS3 install on laptop 3 is now requiring my old GoLive CS serial number, which I trashed along with the disc months ago.  I cannot complete the install of DW CS3 on laptop 3, I have uninstalled DW CS3 from laptop 1, and cannot reinstall it in order to deactivate it, as I did not know this was required. (De-activate, then uninstall?)
    According to everything I've read, I should have a valid install left for DW CS3 onto computer #3, right?  Should I not hope for some understanding and help from Adobe with this?

    Thanks, Ken,
    I had two separate "chats" with Adobe support people.  I cannot find any record of these now, although they both stated that they would escalate this problem and that I would receive email. Nothing received after over ten days.  I also submitted a question directly to Adobe regarding my inability to retrieve my serial number.  I even attached a screen shot of the existing "About" pop-up I get on the computer when clicking on the "About" under GoLive CS.
    Further insight, I am using Mac OS X 10.4 on laptop 1 and Mac OS X 10.6.8 on 2 and 3.
    I expected some responses from Adobe but am so far without any.  Maybe I've been submitting my requests for some assistance to the wrong places... ?  Thanks for any suggestions.

  • Wingdings 3 Problem in Flash CS3

    I am trying to use Wingdings 3 in a text box (dynamic) in
    Flash CS3, but it never comes up correctly. It only shows the
    letter, not the corresponding symbol. I have tried embedding font
    tags in the dynamic text and i have set the textbox's default font
    also, but no luck. the font is installed in windows on all relevant
    machines.
    Any thoughts?

    I just noticed the same problem - both CS3 and 4 do not display dingbats properly. Keycaps works fine. The file contained a Wingdings checkmark in a static text which I did not edit- it was a "u" with an umlaut over it when I opened the file.
    I replaced the fonts and this did nothing to help. I am running Vista 32 with 4GB Ram.

  • Problem Update Flash CS3 (9) to Flash C3 (9.02)- MAC OS X Tiger

    Hi everybody,
    I am on MAC OS X Tiger. My flash is version 9.0 (CS3) and the
    software is install in the default configuration
    (/Applications/Adobe Flash CS3/...).
    My problem is the update for Flash CS3 to get the 9.02
    version works wrongly.
    I doubleclick on it. I write my request password to install
    software or update (It's own to MAC).
    And then the Installer tells me that there is an Error
    because it didn't find the location of my software.
    Is there any thing that I can do to help the updater to find
    the good place ? Is there manual installer ? Which file is corrupt
    I can remove and install again the software because I am
    temporary in Singapore and my DVD is in France.
    I am open to any suggestion.

    By abnormally shutting down the OS X partition has most likely gotten scrambled. You will have to reformat that volume and reinstall OS X.
    Since OS 9 is working you may still be able to copy your personal files to an external drive so they won't be lost.

  • Help with Installing flash error- metafile cannot be loaded

    I read the forum on this but it ended last year and there was no response to some recent questions on this and the direct email to the Adobe rep. on there got no response.
    I am having this problem with installing Flash- it gets about 30% of the way and then a message comes up that says the metafile cannot be loaded.
    I am running 10.7.5 on Mac, all browser software is current. I use both Safari and Chrome. After it said Flash was out of date I tried to update but got the metafile error. So I uninstalled Flash to install it fresh but the same error came up. I tried everything recommended from the forum. I also did all the steps from the help list direct from Adobe ( deleting Flash files, folders, rebooting, etc.) The offline link Adobe provides says the "file cannot be found" so I can't download that either. So I tried the online link download, but even after doing all the steps in order etc. I still get the error when I try to install it.
    I have no firewall and have no virus software running. I also tried the direct offline links that others have provided from 2013, (unfortunately they are old)  in both clicking on them and also downloading by right click but they are dead links and even  the download for it has no content.
    Any help that is more recent than last year? If this is in the wrong place, apologies. New to the forum.

    I tried all solutions but one posted in adobe support. I am local administrator but IE security settings are set by group policies and buttons in tools security setting are grayed out.
    After three days with "The ActiveX control for Flash Player could not be registered" message I tried registering the activeX control manually.
    Bingo! that made the trick.
    So open a DOS window, type "regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10d.ocx" -first check if this directory exists and contains the Flash10d.ocx (no quotes needed) and you should receive a confirmation that it registered correctly.
    I must say that I've tried so many ways that I cannot repeat the correct order before this has worked ;-(
    Hope it works for you all

  • Help!! Flash CS3 and CS4 "Test Movie" very slow on OS X

    This is a problem that, having read many forums, affects a
    very large amount of people, though Adobe doesn't care at all. It
    only affects OS X users. I know that it has been addressed many
    times in different forums, but I never actually stumbled across
    anyone having found a solution.
    When I use Flash CS3, and I make any animation, even the
    simplest tween, and I preview it with Test Movie, the result I get
    is an extremely slow playback. Something like half the FPS it
    should be.
    However, when I export the SWF and preview it in the external
    Flash Player or in a browser, it's just fine and fast.
    Another interesting thing is that in CS3, when I open the
    Help panel, the problem with Test Movie only happens like 20% of
    the time. In that case, it only gets solved if I restart or Log Out
    at least. I have no idea why the Help panel being open solves the
    problem, this only shows that this is probably a little graphic
    user interface bug, or something similar, that could be solved very
    very easily.
    In Flash CS4, there is no Help panel, so there is no solution
    to the problem.
    It would be nice to be able to press Cmd + Enter to see the
    movie, and not have to do File > Export > bla bla bla, open
    Finder, Find the SWF, double click it, wait for the browser to
    open... etc...
    I have a brand new 2.5 GHz MacBook Pro, and Test Movie runs
    faster on my 900MHz Pentium III PC!! Funny...
    Here are some links I found about this problem:
    http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-878
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb407896
    http://www.kirupa.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-258991.html
    This is quite ridiculous, and on Adobe's Support page, the
    solution is "Do not use Test Movie."
    And the funny thing is that they didn't even bother to fix
    this in CS4...
    So basically if something doesn't work, Adobe's solution is
    "Don't use it."
    I guess they're right!
    Please, tell me if anyone has or does not have this problem
    or knows anything about it!

  • Problem installing Flash on to Mac Serious!

    Hi all,
    It's been a really bad few days now. I'm running Firefox 5.0.1 on an Mac OS X 10.5.8 and have recently don't my software update etc... had a small problem with a disapearing dock but nothing major and now like everyone else have been asked to download the new Flash.
    So I download it from the offical site it does its thing. when I get the install icon I click it, it asks me to accept all the rules etc... so I do nd then it asks me to close browser do that then it installs.....but it doesnt really install as when i go back on the internet I'm asked to install flash.
    I have already:
    uninstalled and install a gizzillion times shutting down and all, have searched my activity monitor have checked in with my disk utility have emptied trash and deleted unwanted plists and now I am well and truelly bemused.
    Please please help I need a genius I think.
    cheers

    Hello Ffrrogy,
    I may not be the person to give you any useful suggestions since I have a different serious problem with Flash and Safari 5.1 that I can't solve.  However, since no one else has replied to your problem, I'll offer one suggestion:
    You can begin by checking to see if the Flash Player got downloaded into the correct location on your hard drive.  Via the Finder, look in:
    HardDrive (typically called Macintosh HD - but not your personal user area that probably has your name) --> Library ---> Internet Plug-Ins
    In the Internet Plug-Ins folder should be a file named "Flash Player.plugin"       
    (Note, there is another Library in your personal area that is different from the one in the HD area.  I don't know if Safari would find the plug-in if it were in your personal library.)
    If the file is in the Internet Plug-Ins folder then double check your preferences in Safari.  Under Security, be sure that plug-ins are enabled.  If plug-ins are't enabled the Flash Player you downloaded won't be loaded into Safari when you open that application and thus when you visit a site with Flash content, you'll get the message to download the Flash Player.
    By the way, I'm assuming that Flash was working in your Safari browser at some earlier point in time.  Also, if you have Firefox, you might see if Flash is working there.
    But if your problem isn't with plug-ins not loading then...
