  • HT5660 When updating Adobe Flash Player on my Mac I am told "blocked plug in."  How do I reverse this?

    When trying to update Adobe Flash Player on My iMac I get a message that says "blocked Plug-ins."  When going back to previously viewed studies, including youtube, I get the same message.  What changed if the update was never installed?  How can I reverse this situation?  Thanks for any ideas? 
    PS - not a techie :-)

    Are you actually getting a Java error too, or are you only getting a Flash error?

  • How to update adobe flash player with os10.6.8

    how to update adobe flash player with os10.6.8

    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
    When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5655?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US  which also covers ‘blocked plug-in’.

  • When I try and update my flash player, it downloads as a .mdlp file.  How do I fix this?

    When I try and update my flash player, it downloads as a .mdlp file.  How do I fix this?

    Apologies for the slightly pedantic answer, but in application terms, "closed" and "quit" are two different things. An application such as Safari can have several windows open, and each of them can be closed using the red button in the corner.
    However, even after all windows are closed, the application is still running until you specifically quit it. You can tell it's still running by the small light under its icon in the Dock. If you hold your cursor down on the icon for a few seconds, you should see a pop up menu with the "Quit" option - click that to quit it. Or, click the icon once (this may launch a new window), then either go to the Safari menu and click Quit, or click cmd-Q, to completely quit the app.

    Adobe Flash Player updates create horizonal lines on my monitor. How do I delete Adobe Flash Player?

    if you reboot and the line is there before you login it's not flash
    but more likely an hardware issue
    people like to see patterns so they seek them out but that can at times result in
    a random hardware failure being tied to whatever the user was doing when it happened
    like "tripple clicking in mail caused a loud pop and smoking raising from my imac"
    but anyway this is how you uninstall flash

  • How do I install Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.45.2 when I have the 10.0.42.34 ?

    Do I have to manually uninstall 10.42.34? Then download 10.0.45.2?
    Or if I just go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and download version 10.0.45.2 will remove the older version?
    It confuses me because on this page
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#Uninstall%20previous
    it says that "
    Before you install Flash Player for any Windows browser, uninstall all previous versions and restart your computer. For instructions on removing the player, please see "How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control" (TechNote tn_14157)."
    then gives you this to run
    Windows: uninstall_flash_player.exe
    so do I need to use this uninstaller first? Then reboot, the install the new version?

    Theoretically, updating to the latest Flash Player should remove all previous versions.  However, that does not always work.  I often find old OCX files in people's systems.
    I always use the uninstaller, reboot if there are any files left in the Flash folder, then install the latest version.  Never had any problem with this method on any of my machines.

  • My computer has been crashing when i am using firefox. I was watchung a new video first, then when i was trying to update my flash player like support suggested

    It started the first time when I had Firefox. I would be watch an online video and the picture would stop and the sound would become a buzz or a slow buzz and the sound trying to play. It became more and more. I chanced to chrome for a while. I wanted to try out fox again but it started all over again. It also happen when it looked up possible fixes and tried to update my flash player like suggested. It got to the point where it was downloading and the computer crashed. the only thing I can do every time is do a hard boot and start my computer all over again.
    I don't think I ever had to do that with chrome. Help me, I really do like Firefox a lot but I am going to have to go back to chrome. Also, another thing that is happening is my firewall program is popping up more with a TCP warning.

  • Update to flash player version 10.0.42.34 from 10.0.32.18

    Do I have to uninstall version 10.0.32.18 first? Or can I just download 10.0.42.34 from the adobe
    site and it will autiomatically clean out the older version?
    I get confused because when I go to the adobe site
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    then click installation instructions it takes me to
    http://adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/instructions/
    then under genera when I click support it takes me to
    http://adobe.com/support/flashplayer/
    under the installtion help tab it has this
    How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX control (2007/12/05)
    and this says something about uninstalling older versions before downloading newer versions or was the above information meant for the really older versions back in 2007 and older?
    So bottom line- Do I need to uninstall 10.0.32.18 first before installing 10.0.42.34  ?

    or is it really just no big deal to use the uninstall flash player tool
    Download the Adobe Flash Player uninstaller:
    Windows: uninstall_flash_player.exe (205 KB) (updated 12/08/09)
    reboot, then go to the adaobe site and download the newest flash player?

    thanks

    If Flash Player is indeed the problem I would suggest using the Adobe Uninstaller.
    Have you tried using a different browser such as Chrome, Firefox or Safari to see if they have a problem with Flash?

  • Why ship Google Chrome with security updates to Flash Player

    I do not want it, I will not install it, it wastes time downloading. Stop sending it to me.

    I remember the European Competition authorities made a judgement against Microsoft for only shipping Internet Explorer with Windows. How can you only ship the Chrome option with Adobe updates, why do you not give users the option to download other browsers?
