How to avoid installing newer version of flash player

Hey,
After installing the newer version of flash player it caused troubles to me, and I don't see any way but to install an older version of Flash Player, however after I have installed it the game forces me to Install the newest version of Flash Player, otherwise it cannot run. So here is my question. How can I use an older version of Flash Player I had before without installing the newer version of it?

Hi, You can go to this test site to see if you have Flash Player Installed on your 10.6.5 Mac.
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Then this link has info on how to Uninstall Flash Player (if needed) and Install the latest version. It is a step by step.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html
After reading that info and you just need to Install, then this link would be easier:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Flash Player is a browser plugin and as long as your browser is supported by Adobe Flash Player, then you shouldn't have any problem.
Hope that helps,

I'm using 64 bit windows 7 laptop and IE9

Hi all
don't worry i have found the answer on the adobe find flash player page http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
It was easy if using IE9 disable ActiveX filtering.
One problem solved.

How long until a newer version of flash player is released?

Adobe sure could use to fix this broken version that is out now.
How long will we have to wait for an update?

Does anybody know if this is being worked on?
Not being able to view flash in a website is a major problem since so many website authors have chosen to include it in their sites. Personally I don't like flash but I have to deal with it so I need it on the iPhone to make it useful for browsing.

How do i download a newer version of Flash player. I have tried 10 times, it says complete..however

How do I download a new version of flash player. I have tried 10 times, each time it says complete. However when I need it on a site, it says I don't have it???????? Thank you

Hello,
I have a similar problem than sam6sam had except that I'm on Safari. After the Mountain Lion security update I did last Friday, I had to update Flash. I installed .149, deinstalled, restarted, reinstalled .149 about 2 dozens times and it didn't work. Yesterday I saw that you had .167 and thought "finally they will have fixed this issue". After doing the same deinstall restart and install routine another dozen time, I give up!
I've followed all the instructions on this page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.html
and this page:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5067997#5067997
and this page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
and still nothing.
It looks like it's installed. When I go into System Preference Flash Player shows "Plug-in version 11.6.602.167 is installed.", yet when I want to see a flash video it tells me that I don't have the software and need to install it. My Safari Preferences allow for Pop-up and Enable Plug-in. My "open 'safe' files after downloading" is clicked.
I've search all of Adobe, Apple and other geeky website's "help" area, and nothing I tried worked, including the "sudo" commands in the terminal (the answer to this one is "command not found").
I'm really frustrated by this. There is certainly something that I overlooked, but I cannot figure it out. Help!

How to install older versions of Flash Player(ActiveX) in Win 8?

Hello all,
How to install older version of Flash Player in Windows 8? and how to uninstall default Flash Player that come from IE10 in Windows 8?
Actually I want to install Adobe_Flash_Player_(IE)_v11.7.700.224.exe in Windows 8.
Is it possible to overcome this issue? If it is not, could you share me your information on this issue?
Thanks in advance.
RK.

Thank you for reply..
Actually i uninstalled the existing version of Flash Player from my Windows 8 PC, but when i tried to install the older version, it was not allowing me to install and was showing that my browser is included with latest version.
Even i followed the below given websites, it didn't given any remedy for it.
http://flash-focus.blogspot.in/2007/03/installing-previous-versions-of-flash.html
http://www.itsecdb.com/oval/objectdetails/oval/org.mitre.oval/obj/7075/windows-registry_ob ject-Registry-that-holds-the-version-of-the-Adobe-Flash-Player-in/
So that my PC is restricting the older version installation from somewhere which holds the version information and that user cannot modify/delete that information. If i know that mystery i can install any version of Flash Player in my Windows 8.
I hope i will find this.
Thanks for your support.

Hi,
For option: "install new versions automatically", we can simply prevent it via GPO or registry (the registry entry can also be deployed via GPO)
Computer Configuration - Administrative Templates - Windows Components - Internet Explorer - Install new versions of Internet Explorer automatically
Or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"EnableAutoUpgrade"=dword:00000000

Both ActiveX and plugin? What versions?

Installing multiple versions of Flash Player

I am running Windows 7 x64, and curently have Google Chrome running in addition to IE 8. Has anyone installed multiple versions of Flash Player to support both browsers...IE and Chrome?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, there are two Flash Player versions; one is the ActiveX for Internet Explorer, and the other one is the plugin for all other browsers, e.g. Firefox, Chrome, etc.
Just go to the FP download page with each browser type, then do the install. IE will install the ActiveX, the other browser will install the plugin. (Once you install the plugin, it will work for all non-IE browsers.)

Should I recompile my swf at every new version of flash player ?

should I recompile my swf at every new version of flash player to benefit of any new optimization bugs and new features ? I saw that the version of flash player will increase every 3 months.
is CC is able to offer publish settings with every 3 months new version ?
thanks

Its simple: any advanced feature that would improve the performance has to be adressed by the code you write to be useful.
So say in Flash 12 Adobe Introduces Stage4D, simply publishing your existing Flash 11 work that uses Stage3D will not use the Stage4D Features present in Flash 12,
you would have very likely to rewrite some of your code to profit from the benefits.
So recompiling on its own, will do nothing useful for you.

New Version of Flash Player Won't Install Properly

Cannot install new version of Adobe Flash Player. Windows 7, 32 Bit. I use Firefox. Firefox is updated. Old version was working fine. Tried to install new because old one was slow and I received prompts to update. Uninstalled old one. Now, I cannot watch anything because every time I try to install the new version, I keep getting a message saying that I cannot install more than one instance of it, and that it is already open. It is not. I am confused. How do I fix this. Yes, plug-ins are allowed. I tried to connect to the part that said to try for a different computer, and chose Windows and Firefox. Still, the same problem. Please help, I am on the verge of tears.

Never mind, I chose this option:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player.exe
It finally allowed me to install. It is working. Adobe, I am disappointed that this update was so frustrating to install. Shame on you.

I have a newer version of flash player installed then what is listed as the most recent version??

Hello,
I am checking the version i have installed of flash player via the adobe version check option at the site and i have version 11.8.800.94 and when i check the list of the latest versions of Adobe, i see 11.7.700.169 listed as being the latest vversion. How can i have a version installed that's above that? I haven't installed a beta version, never signed up for beta testing and all i did was install the latest version of flash player via the website.
I am wondering what this is cause recently when viewing videos on youtube, my videos tend to hang up or end halfway through and think the video ended when it's not. My guess now is that i have sumhow obtained a version of flash player that's not correct and thus why the videos go haywire now. Re-installing flash player sets it back to the 11.8 version again, so that didn't work.
Any information any1 might have that can solve this is much appreciated.

11.8.800.94 is the latest version for Windows and Mac. 11.8.800.115 is the latest beta version. http://helpx.adobe.com/en/flash-player/release-note/fp_118_air_38_release_notes.html
