  • I am having trouble installing flash player on mac

    I have been trying to install flash player on my mac several times, without success. I have ran the uninstall program a few times
    and it still doesn't work. Help!!

    Please do a clean install by following instructions here.  Make sure to delete all files and folders in step 4.  Then download and install the latest Flash Player here.

  • I'm having trouble installing Flash Player 11.3.300.257

    Last week I got an automatic pop up to update Flash Player. I did as I normally do and a little while later I noticed that Flash Player is no longer working on my computer.
    My system:
    Dell Precision Workstation 690
    Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)
    Mozilla Firefox 12.0
    I have full administrative rights on this computer
    I can provide other info as requested.
    The steps I have taken so far:
    The initial update installation appeared to work normally with no hang ups or delays. At the end of the installation Firefox opened to the Adobe page saying the installation was succesful. However, it became clear when I tried to watch video on Youtube and other sites that Flash was not operational.
    I went to the Flash download page again and tried the installation again, but had the exact same result.
    I checked the Plug-Ins in Firefox tools and it verified I have the latest plug ins installed for Flash Player.
    Rebooted the system and tried again. Same result. (I later shut down the system overnight and the next day tried again with the same result)
    I found the Flash Player uninstaller and ran that. Rebooted. Installed latest version. Same result as before (Installation seems to complete as normal but Flash is not working).
    I tried a clean installation per these instructions; http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315
    I got the exact same result as before.
    Throughout the process, including after the clean install, I have checked this page http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
    Each time I see the same thing - Under where it says "Can you see the movie below?" I see nothing. No movie and not even a grey box. Just blank white page until I see the box saying "Yes I can" and "No I can't".
    In another thread similar to this ( http://forums.adobe.com/message/4421001#4421001 ), someone asked the original poster this:
    "What files do you have in
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash ?
    C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash ?
    Can you also post the contents of the FlashInstall.log files from both these folders?"
    In a pre-emptive effort if it helps anyone, this is my answer to that request:
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash ?

    I have never had an issue updating Flash Player on this computer before and nothing of any significance has changed (ie, hardware, software, admin rights, etc). I'm at a total loss and I would appreciate any advice anyone could give.

    Flash Player Protected Mode provides a modern, sophisticated set of security protections that we see as critical in today's security landscape. 
    We highly recommend that users not disable ProtectedMode.  Also, it's worth noting that by manually changing your mms.cfg, you have opted out of Protected Mode for all future versions of Flash Player, as we will continue to honor that preference. This puts your system at risk, and that risk will continue to grow over time. 
    Ultimately, this is an issue with the RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in.  There is a more technical explanation in the Mozilla bug referenced above in the thread, but the simplified version is that the security enhancements designed to prevent the introduction of malware via Flash Player make RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in no longer compatible with Flash Player for Firefox.  You can disable the record functionality to eliminate this issue, while retaining the ability to view both Flash and Real Player content.
    To disable the Real Player Browser Record functionality while maintaining the enhanced security provided by Flash Player with Protected Mode, do the following:
        Launch RealPlayer
        Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner of the window, and choose Preferences
        Choose Download & Recording from the left-hand menu
        Uncheck "Enable Web Download & Recording for these installed browser"
        Click OK

  • Anyone having trouble installing Flash Player with latest Firefox?

    I can't get Flash Player to work on Firefox (Windows 8.1).  Works just fine in IE but when I try to add it as an add-on for Firefox it goes to manual install and then fails, with message that it is already running in another application.  I disabled it in IE in case that was the problem, but using the Check function shows it isn't on my computer.  I've tried the things on the Help page but my Firefox (most current version) menu doesn't have any of the options shown such as enable Java.  I have even tried uninstalling and re-installing Firefox.  I already have Shockwave for Director as an add-on, but even before I put that in it happened. 

    The ActiveX plugin for IE functions independently of the Firefox plugin.
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Download (Save - DON'T run) that and reboot.
    Run it from your Downloads folder.

    Try uninstalling flash player using these directions. They
    were posted by BWolfe from Adobe in another msg..
    ONE: Identify possibly leftover Flash player bits
    a. Open C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash folder.
    b. Download the latest FP uninstaller from
    http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157.
    c. Run the uninstaller. If you get a notice saying you need
    to reboot, then reboot.
    d. Look at C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash folder.
    e. Does any file ending in .ocx remain? (flash.ocx,
    flasha.ocs, flash9d.ocx etc...)
    e1. If no, then you don't usually have any leftover locked
    bits.
    You're done with this part of the problem, go to the Adobe
    home page and see if you can install the latest version of the
    Flash Player.
    e2. If yes, then that remaining .ocx file may be locked.
    Right click it
    and select properties and look at the version tab.
    What is the version number?
    f. Is the version number Flash Player 9.0.16.0 or earlier?
    f1. Use the uninstaller instructions from this technote:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/4da116d3
    -- section "Flash Player 9.0.16.0 and earlier"
    -- DO NOT re-register the uninstaller. ONLY do this
    UninstFl.exe part.
    Yes, you'll need to know how to use the command line to do
    this. If you're not
    comfortable with that then take your machine to someone who
    is!
    g. Is the version number Flash Player 9.0.28.0 or higher?
    g1. Use the uninstaller instructions from this technote:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/4da116d3
    -- section "Flash Player 9 (9.0.28.0) and later"
    -- DO NOT re-register the uninstaller. ONLY do this
    UninstFl.exe part.
    In both the D and E sections above you'll need to use the
    specific name of the control that remains
    in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash. So if you had a
    stuck flash9b.ocx[DJM1] in the folder
    and version was 9.0.28.0, your uninstall command would look
    like this:
    UninstFl.exe -u
    c:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9b.ocx
    That said, if you have trouble running these commands it
    really is necessary to find someone who knows how
    to use the command line, either a friend or a local
    professional. Or spend some time learning about the
    command line yourself.
    h. RERUN the uninstaller you downloaded earlier. This should
    get rid of the remaining (now unlocked) .ocx file and fix any
    registry keys associated with it.
    ALL of section "ONE: Identify possibly leftover Flash player
    bits" is important. BUT this locked bit problem only happens on
    maybe one out of 50 machines. So most people with installation
    problems such as this are not going to have locked bits.

  • Having trouble with Flash Player in regards to youtube

    Hello,
    Recently I started having trouble with Flash Player in regards to using it with youtube. Sometimes all I see is a blank white screen and sometimes I do see the video with no surrounding youtube webpage or suggested videos etc. Nothing has changed on my computer as far as I know except the usual updates etc. I have tried uninstalling Flash Player and reinstalling with no luck. I even tried an older version. I am running windows XP and IE and have McAfee for my anti-virus. I am not the most computer savy person in the world and could sure use some help.
    Thanks,
    Ron

    Hitomi,
    Thanks for the links. I am pretty sure it is not a problem with Flash Player itself but something else that is causing this. I don't know how to do a "screen shot", but even if I did I don't know that it would do anygood to show that because the youtube video screen and surrounding webpage only show for a second and then it goes totally white.
    Pat,
    Here is what I found:
    Intel(R) 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family
    Driver Provider          Intel corporation
    Driver Date               6/8/2005
    Driver Version          6.14.10.4332
    Digital Signer               Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatability Publis
    Update:
    This morning after doing some further reading and research on the Internet I tried running youtube in the  "InPrivate Browsing" window and youtube worked fine. So thinking I should delete my Internet Browing History, Cache, and Cookies, based on what I read I went ahead and did that but it still doesn't want to work. I think I did the deletions correctly? As I mentioned above I am not very computer savvy but can get by on the basics. Where should I go from here based on this info?
    Thanks,
    Ron                

  • Anyone else having trouble with flash player over working the processor since the security update?

    Hi everyone-
    Since the last security update (flash player version 11.7.700.169) I have been having trouble with flash player beating the daylights out of my processor. My OS is Windows XP. This only happens on some sites, not all. For example netflix and amazon are fine, but acorn and huffington post videos send the processor into overdrive. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance :-)

    I have XP on some machines, and I do not experience any such problems with 11.7.700.179.  If I were, I would try two things
    update the graphics drivers; see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765

  • Trouble installing Flash Player 11.8.800.94 on Macintosh

    I have had repeated trouble installing Flash Player 11.8.800.94 on Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) despite following every step listed in the Macintosh Installation Help guide: uninstalling previous versions, turning off anti-virus protection, etc. Each time I get a warning message for both Safari and Firefox attempted installations as follows: "Error: General installation error." The only solution seemed to be to reinstall an earlier version: 11.7.700.225.
    Any suggestions?

    http://blueskyworkshop.blogspot.com/2013/04/cant-install-flash-on-os-x -mountain.html
    If you're not comfortable with terminal commands:
    Download the offline installer here (right click and "Save as")
    Quit all browsers
    Go to: MacHD/Library/Internet Plugins... and if the Flash Player.plugin is still there "trash it".
    Then go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe and "trash" the Flash Player folder if it's still there.
    Empty the trash.
    Mount the DMG and run the installer
    Relaunch Firefox and it should work

  • FAQ: I'm having trouble installing Flash Catalyst CS5, how do I clean up beta installations?

    The majority of users have trouble installing Flash Catalyst CS5 when they have not properly run the uninstaller on a previous version (typically a beta version).
    If this is the case, the first thing you should try is running the Adobe CS5 cleanup script: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/829/cpsid_82947.html

    Flash Player Protected Mode provides a modern, sophisticated set of security protections that we see as critical in today's security landscape. 
    We highly recommend that users not disable ProtectedMode.  Also, it's worth noting that by manually changing your mms.cfg, you have opted out of Protected Mode for all future versions of Flash Player, as we will continue to honor that preference.

  • Trouble installing Flash Player 9

    Hi, I am trying to install Flash Player 9 and having a hard time.  I have uninstalled 10 and downloaded the archived folder for nine.  when I try to install 9r124_winax.exe it starts to install and then I get a popup that tells me it is not the most current version and that I can go to Adobe to get the most current one.  The only option is to click OK, then the download stops.  I don't want version 10 as it freezes a web page I need for school. Is there anyway I can work around this popup page and get version 9 installed.  Thanks

    I think the problem you are having is because you already have a Flash Player installed. You will need to uninstall Flash Player 10 from your machine before installing Flash Player 9. To uninstall Flash Player grab the uninstaller for your operating system from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html. Note that running this uninstaller removes all Flash Players from your computer so Flash will no longer work in any browser until you install a new Flash Player for that browser. Adobe has seperate installers for Internet Explorer and FireFox/Safari.
    Once the uninstaller finishes you can install a new Flash Player. Get the Flash Player you want from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, be sure to run the installer for the browser you are using. Note you should close your browser for the whole process of uninstall and install.
    Good luck.
