How to enable flash in windows 8

Adobe website says Firefox is installed. Works under Internet Explorer. But Firefox Options Plugins does not show either Flash or Shock. Trying an install bombs out with an error that it can't find entry point in a Windows system file. How do I get Firefox to see that Flash is already in Windows 8?

Adobe has different installers for IE and Firefox, because IE takes an ActiveX control and Firefox takes a plugin. You might need the second installer if you have never run it before.
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Visit using Firefox and make sure to uncheck any unwanted extras.
After the installer downloads, you will need to run it. If that's where the problem is, you can try the "offline" installer that doesn't need to connect back to Adobe for more files and see whether that works better:
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
Choose one of the downloads for "Plugin-based browsers".
Any luck?

  • How to enable hibernation in Windows Server 2008 R2

    Hi 
    I am using Windows Server 2008 R2. I want to enable hibernation on server 2008 R2. I have checked the feature in power options but it dose not show any option for sleep & hibernation. I have tried to enable from command prompt by using powercfg -h on
    but getting error message that this feature is not supported by firmware. I have updated the firmware but still getting same error.
    Also checked with powercfg /energy & getting given below errors.
    Platform Power Management Capabilities:System firmware (BIOS) does not support S3.
    The hardware in this computer does not support the S3 sleep state.
    Platform Power Management Capabilities:System firmware (BIOS) does not support S4 (Hibernate).
    The hardware in this computer does not support the S4 (Hibernate) state.
    Platform Power Management Capabilities:PCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) Disabled
    PCI Express Active-State Power Management (ASPM) has been disabled due to a known incompatibility
    with the hardware in this computer.
    Can anyone suggest me how can I enable hibernation on windows server 2008 R2 64 bit.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    I hate to suggest the obvious, but i'd say your hardware does not support sleep or hibernate.

  • How to enable flash during video capture nokia n90...

    Hi-
    How can I turn on or enable flash during video capturing on Nokia n900? Is there a way because I tried to take videos at night and they were unvisible or dim.  I know we can use flash while taking pictures!!
    Thanks

    if your camera settings is on automatic then the flash will be on while recording. that is how mine is set and it stays on.
    everything happens for a reason

  • How to Enable Flash Content?

    When opening a pdf document we recieve the attached Warning message. Is there a way to enable flash content for all documents?  Or, is it recommended, for security, to allow flash on a per document basis?  Is there a article explaning this. I would like to pass the article on the the users that are having trouble.
    Thank you

    Hi
    Sure, without plugins enabled you'd have seen no flash at all, even the settings manager, not just the 3rd party error message,
    Ok, so the check box won't check - I'd delete the file settings.sol which you oughtta find in
    Home/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys/
    or just trash everything inside the Home/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/ folder
    do the above with browsers closed.
    the default is to allow 3rd party access, so hopefully that'll fix it.
    If it doesn't, check the permissions on the Macromedia folder - it should be Read & Write for your user name.
    I think it'll be the main Macromedia folder, since experimenting here shows the box is checkable no matter what the access is for the settings.sol file; but making Home/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/ read only... stops the boxes from working.
    Here's hoping eh

  • NB200 - How to enable WiFi on Windows 7?

    Hey,
    I've just bought a brand new Toshiba NB200 netbook (10-Z).
    When finished with the needed Win XP install, I installed the Windows 7 RC1, but the wifi is not working. The Fn+F8 Combination would start the wifi adapter, but the led in the outer side of the netbook is not blinking or anything, and system says, first I have to turn on the wifi, but I simply Can't, because the combination isn't working. I installed all the drivers, but still don't work.
    Sorry for the bad english, i'm Hungarian.
    Thanks, B3N1

    I installed seven directly, without even booting on the windows xp config shipped with the laptop
    the wireless was off, there was no way to enable it, even after following all the advises before.
    I had to reinstall XP on a second partition from the restore disc, and then the wireless was enabled, either on windows xp or seven... (but you could do the same thing from a standard xp install, you'll just have to install all the drivers)
    Altough I cannot switch the wireless off with the fn+f8 combo (or i can go to the xp partition, switch it off, and go back to seven... lol)
    I know seven was not officially supported and blah blah blah but it was really REALLY annoying, it was the first (and I hope the last) disappointment with the nb200. (PLL20C-00200C, canadian model)

  • How to enable Flash CS4 to accept SHIFT INSERT instead of CTRL V? (BUG!!!)

    This drives me mad... And just can't understand why Adobe has not corrected this very basic bug since ages. So, the thing is Windows users tend to love, GOT USED TO using CTRL+INSERT and SHIFT+INSERT for copy and paste operations.
    Yyyeeas I know, that under Keyboard shortcuts I can define my own shortcuts, but the real problem is, that even after the Shortcut manager eats shift insert as a paste hotkey, it just fails to function.
    CTRL INSERT works like a charm, but SHIFT INSERT as Paste DOES NOT.
    AAARRRGGHHH. ADOBE PLEASE CORRECT THIS ERROR TO ALLEVIATE THE PAIN!
    PS: And please make a usable flash code editor in the next Flash release. Thanks. Like normal line copying and inserting would be welcome. Check PHPEd, Ultraedit and other common editors for behaviour patterns...

    Well, after months of trying to get Adobe to take this issue seriously I have finally got this reply from Tech Support:
    Peter, let me inform you that, Bug Number for the issue that you are facing is "Bug# 2193890".
    Peter, as per my interaction with senior Technical Department let me provide you the important information, this bug is not going to be worked upon by our Engineering team because, According to Adobe Technical Support policy, we cannot work on a bug if we do not recieve certain specified number of complaints from customer's.
    As this issue is encountered by only very few customer's, hence this bug will not be fixed by pur Engineering team. 
    So can I suggest that anyone who is driven mad by this 'bug' (actually a fundamental oversight in the very basic programming of the interface) contacts Adobe support, referring to Bug# 2193890 (and maybe my Case #181518116). 
    After all, how hard is it to trap some key combinations?

  • How to enable hibernate in windows 7 x86

    Hi
    hibernate feature is not enabled on my system.
    "hibernat after" and "Allow Hybrid Sleep" does not exist in the below directory:

    I when typed "powercfg /hibernate on" OR "powercfg -h on" in administrator CMD, Show below message:
    Hibernation failed with the following error: The request is not supported.
    The following items are preventing hibernation on this system.
    An internal system component has disabled hibernation.

    Please Help me
    Thanks

    Hi,
    you cannot use hibernation if booting from VHD also you will need hardware that support the required standards (modern hardware does) and have up-to-date drivers
    you could force hibernation to on by setting key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentCongtrolSet\Control\Power\HibernateEnabled to 1

    The question sounds silly, but its a real one. basically what's happening is the computer I have right now, that I'm typing on, browsing the internet, etc, is my brothers that I am currently borrowing in order to get some updates for the desktop I have. this laptop is running windows 8. I want to put the latest version of flash player, on my desktop which does not have internet access. Can anyone help me? It's probably obvious or right in front of my face, but I don't know what to do. Please, and thank you very much.
