How to get and install old (version 8) Flash player ActiveX in IE?

I would like to install old Flash Active X controls into IE
in order to test if our software detects the version
properly.
If I download and install the old players available at
www.adobe.com
these do not seem to install the activeX: there are no
Flash*.ocx files
or registry entries as indicated in
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=b0dba60b&sliceId=2
I have searched the knowledgebase/forums and posted in the
Flash player forum
but did not find/get an answer...
Bye
Jan

Jan, having massive Flash 9 problems too. Spoke to an AOL
tech guy and he told me download old versions of Macromedia Flash
at the website below. He said the site is very helpful and totally
legit. I'm trying it tonite myself. Unfortunately, they only do
Windows versions. Visit the site, lots of stuff there. Cheers,

  • How to install old version of Flash Player ActiveX

    Hello,
    I have to install Flash Player ActiveX 10.1.x or 10.3.x because it is required by my application. 11.x version I tried made issues.
    I downloaded various 10.x versions : they all told me that this version is not the newest => I can only quit the installation.
    How can I avoid that message ?
    What does Adobe care which version I want to install because I have to ????? 
    Thank you for your help !

    Please run the appropriate uninstaller linked below.  That should allow you to run older installers without receiving that error.

  • 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.

    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.

  • How to get and install the new MSI Bluetooth Software Package 1.4.3.3.

    How to get and install the new MSI Bluetooth Software Package 1.4.3.3.
    This little FAQ will only cover the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software Package.
    First thing too do is unistall any older version of the MSI Bluetooth Software.
    Do this through the Add/Remove program applet in your control panel.
    There seams too be only through Live update you could get the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software Package.
    If you can't see any enter for MSI Bluetooth Software in the Live driver section of Live update then you have too enter the following too your registry.
    Create following code in Notepad and save it as MSILD.reg, then run the file.
    ;-->Code start
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MSI\Drivers\MSI Bluetooth Software]
    "DrvSetup"="1"
    "Version"="1.4.2.10"
    ;-->Code end
    Rerun the Live update and hopefully you will now see a entry for MSI Bluetooth Software in Live driver section.
    Install the new version of MSI Bluetooth Software and reboot your computer. Even if the setup program doesnt told you too doit.
    After rebooting the computer you will see the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar. If it's Red then try too start the Bluetooth services by right click on the try icon and the only alternetiv there is.
    If the Bluetooth services is asking for a valid licens.dat then you should do the following.
    Surf to Jon's Bluetooth guide http://www.jonsguides.com./bluetooth/prepare.html and download the patcher from the link there.
    Unzip the the patcher and then run the BTWPatcher.exe program.
    Now the Bluetooth services will start and you will bee able too configure your own settings for the Bluetooth services.
    If nothing of this work you could try the complete Bluetooth solution at Jon's gudie and install the IBM version of the same program. I havent test this solution and will not do soo.

    I have the MS-6968 device and i want to use driver 1.4.x or 3.0.x. I found the driver 1.4.2.10 but i cannot find any WIDCOMMSecurity code.
    So, can anyone give me a link for BTWPatcher.exe???
    It cannot be found here (Jon's Bluetooth ) anymore.
    Thanks

    Thanks but I found my problem. It was easy oncew I found out the flask player was also called shockwave. My shockwave add-on was disabled. I'm not certain what caused the condition. I was good one day and not getting the error messages the next day. But, I know what to look for in the future if it reoccurs. Thanks again.

  • 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,

    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!

  • Hosting old versions of Flash Player

    Is there any official word about hosting old versions of flash player?  I have a large number of .swf files that were created using Articulate Presenter 5.4 which converted them from powerpoint files.  Under the latest version of Flash player they don't play.  When using the beta version up on labs most work, but a few with box/circle in animations don't.  The only solution that doesn't break any .swf files is downgrading to 10.0.42.34.  This is totally an Articulate issue and I am talking with them about a fix; I just thought it prudent to provide some background to my question.  I am aware of http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html but it is a little ridiculous to ask them to download 157 MB to get the 1.83/1.86 MB file they need.  I'd like to host the older version so that people having a problem can choose to download it, but I am not sure as to Adobe's stance on this issue, so if anyone out there can fill me in/point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

  • 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.)
