How do I get Adobe to "unblock" the 'Flash Player'?

I quit allowing the too-too frequent flash player updates because they seemed to be involved in a destructive process that resulted in my online connection reverting to configuration that was very, very slow (repeatedly). Subsequently, 'Adobe' advised me that they were "blocking" the software since I was not updating. While I can do without playing U-Tube, etc., it now affects my online banking, as well. I need to get this "un-blocked"! MAC Snow Leopard, Flash Player 13.

Hi Al,
If you're on Mac, this is most likely Apple blocking the older plugin. Adobe does not block plugins from the browser. What version of Flash Player 13 do you have installed? You can obtain the version installed by going to Adobe - Flash Player, or Flash Player Help.

I've down loaded adobe flash player but when I try to veiw video on firefox I'm still told that I need adobe flash player. How do I get firefox to see the flash player download?

I was trying to view a video I uploaded to facebook using firefox. The system told me to down load adobe flash player. I did but still get the message that I need to down load flash player. How do I get firefox to see the down loaded adobe flash player?

by installing from within Firefox, Internet Explorer has its own version (Active-X).
Make sure you are starting in the correct place for Flash
* http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
If you want to read PDF files in you browser, you might also want
* http://get.adobe.com/reader/
After the download,
#bring up the download manager ("Ctrl+J") and start your installs. As soon as the install comes up,
#close Firefox with '''File > Exit''' or "Firefox" button > Exit. Give Firefox some time to close.
#If install does not proceed, '''terminate "firefox.exe"''' and '''"plugin-container.exe"''' from the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
#* Windows 7 shortcut to the WTM is "Ctrl+Shift+Esc"
#* or on any Windows system from "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then choose Windows Task Manager.
#*Make sure that "firefox.exe" is no longer running -- if it is still running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu, and do the same for "plugin-container.exe" if it is found there.
#proceed with the install.
'''Warning''': this is the Adobe site and they have chosen to to provide crapware along with their own product. Only install the product you were planning to install. Do not install additional products: including -- "Free! McAfee Security Scan Plus" or "Google Chrome". Installing Google Chrome on your own and installing it because it is offered on the Adobe site are two different things.
Find updates for your installed plugins at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ mozilla.com/plugincheck
-- best to use Adobe's site to really see if their plug-ins are up to date.
Please fix your caps lock or read what you type, do you think anybody could read my answer if I typed in all caps.
If the above fails to correct the problem, I would try uninstalling Adobe Flash from your system entirely first, from the control panel then "Programs and Features".

I keep getting an error message, the flash player won't install, help?

I'am using internet explorer 8 and I followed all the trouble shooting steps in the support center but i keep getting this message:
"Error opening for file writing: C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10d.ocx".
The Pop up that allows it to download the file isn't coming up, but when i tried to download the Adobe air and it came up. I checked all the security settings in the Internet options and followed it but still the same. What could this mean? Thank you.

Try the following:
download the Flash Player uninstaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html (save to disk);
download the offline ActiveX installer http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe (save to disk);
close all browser windows, then run the downloaded uninstaller;
open Windows Explorer, then check that %WINDIR%\system32\Macromed\Flash is empty (or non-existant);
now run the downloaded installer

How to Install Elements 5 Without Installing the Flash Player that is On the Photoshop Elements 5 CD

Having just changed the operating system here from Microsoft Windows XP Pro to Microsoft Windows 7 Pro (64 bit), it is desirable to install the Existing Photoshop Elements 5, Without Installing the Flash Player and Adobe Reader programs on the Elements 5 CD. The Elements 5 Setup Wizard does not appear to offer an option to "uncheck" or otherwise prevent the Flash Player and Adobe Reader programs from being installed. It is not desirable to install and then uninstall the unwanted Flash Player and Adobe Reader programs. It is also not desirable to purchase a newer version of Elements at this time.

If you cancel out of the Setup Wizard and then go to Start>Computer and right click on the cd and choose explore, you should be able to go to the folder
that has photoshop elements 5 and run the Installer or Setup.exe and bypass all the other out of date stuff like flash and adobe reader.
Also, after installing pse 5 you'll want to apply the 5.02 patch so pse 5 runs better on windows 7.
(it says for vista, but works on windows 7 x64 as well)

How can I fix display errors of the flash player concerning accents of the font Klavika?

I've got an display error concerning accents of the font Klavika (see images attached). Instead of "é" "È" is displayed in the flash player. Helvetica works fine.

Maybe the font has a problem, what you would do is find the character that corresponds to that maybe é É are invested and be wrong and replace the character with the correct
str.replace ('é', 'É');
where str is your string

Hello, I cannot figure out yet how to get Adobe's most recent Flash Player to Install Properly

Hello Adobe,
Please advise as to how I can get the most recent Adobe Flash Player to properly install onto my computer.
I have tried to download: install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih.exe
Multiple times and install to no avail.
Please advise, and Thanks,
Ryan.

Hi Ryan,
What happens when you try and download from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer? Does the download start? Are you unable to find the downloaded file? Does the installer fail? If so, do you get an error message?
Thanks,
Chris

Getting old versions of the Flash Player

I need to get Flash Player 7 somehow to test out a website...
Is there anyway I can switch from Flash 9 to Flash 7 somehow? It's
a pain!

Old players are available here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14266.
Here's a quite helpful program that lets you switch between
installed versions:

Look at the readme how to get it to work, it's a bit strange to
setup, but works fine once it's installed properly.

How do I get Active X control for flash player registered?

I have been having problems with flashplayer. I continue to get different messages when I try to download. The latest message is: Active X control for flash player could not be registered. What do I do to get the system working?

Looks to be a permission issue. Do you have administrator priveleges on the machine?

ADOBE FYI: Getting Adobe Tech Support for Flash Player problems

ALL:
I wanted to take a second to remind everyone here (and
incoming new users) that this forum and most of our other forums
are currently for user-to-user discussions of Adobe products, and
are not an official customer support channel for Adobe. If you need
direct assistance from a support agent please contact Adobe
support.
Flash Player installation help is available via web case only
at
Flash Player
Support. No phone or chat support is available. An AdobeID
login will be required, which is easy to set up.
If at any moment you feel that your Flash Player webcase is
not being handled correctly you have the ability (via the web case
portal that you'll see after logging in) to request an escalation
or provide feedback to the agents. And I encourage you to do so.
You can also re-open a case that may have been incorrectly closed.
If you are a Flash developer experiencing a Flash Player
related issue or an issue with existing content not playing
correctly as the result of a security update please contact support
via
http://www.adobe.com/support/flash.

Hi Bentley,
I just noticed something. The link that I pasted, to your
post, does not work either. I noticed why, however, and it seems to
be why the link in your original page does not work, and why the
link in my post that goes to your post does not work.
It seems to be that if a link has a period after it (i.e., if
it is at the end of a sentence), the period is incorrectly included
in the "real" link. Somehow, whatever mechanism that processes the
post has a mini bug in it.
If you go to the link that is results in "Sorry, this page is
not available", and look up into the browser address bar, you will
see the period there each time.
I just thought that I would point this out, too, so that the
web techs in charge of the workings of the forums could look into
it.
Here is the original link, without a period after it, to your
original page.
