I am having trouble updating my adobe flash player

I can't watch any videos on my laptop because it says my adobe flash players out of date. When I try to update it it keeps telling me to put in my password but I don't have one. Help!

If you are not the administrator of this computer, you need the administrator to do this..

  • I'm having trouble with installing Adobe Flash Player

    everything I using on the web tells me I need the update for Adobe Flash Player-birthday cad sites and such... So I install it but instead of just finishing step 3 - install complete - I get an advertisement for an additional application for $9.99 a month - which I have no need for so I just close that tab window.... I've tried restart, shut down, and a few other things but to no avail.... go to the site I want to send from and I get the same update message - but no viewing of the card or product I 'm looking for....  anyone know what I need to do?
    I've search it out through Finder and it is in there in applications all of them (apps) from 2007 to 2015 - something isn't right.... right?
    can you guys help?  thanks, ohyes

    The big Step 1 button that says Install doesn't install anything. It downloads the installer to your Mac. Note that Step 2 tells you what to do next:
    To proceed, open your download folder and locate the Adobe Flash Player Installer file, named like "AdobeFlashPlayer[xxx]_install.dmg”.
    The file you'll find there should be named:
    AdobeFlashPlayer_17_ta_install.dmg
    Double click the .dmg file to open it. You'll see this:
    Click the "Install Adobe Flash Player" package. When the installation is done, you can close this window and dismount the .dmg file by putting the "drive" icon that appeared on the desktop in the trash. You can then delete the .dmg file as you no longer need it.
    The Step 3 Adobe shows is completely pointless.

  • I am having trouble installing new adobe flash player

    It will not load to install

    You posted in the Acrobat.com Developers forum.  I think you have a much better chance to get answers if you ask in the Flash Player forum.  And give them some details: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1195540

  • Having Trouble Installing new adobe flash player

    I have tried to download the newest version a dozen times. I have uninstalled everything relating to flash player, and then I close ALL MY PROGRAMS, but for some reason, when I go to install it, I get an error message telling me that it couldn't install because an error occured, because something is using adobe or flash or whatever. Which I don't understand. It should be impossible if I've unistalled the thing! Any suggestions?

    Try the following
    download the FP uninstaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html and save it to disk;
    download the plugin installer from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html and save it to disk;
    close all browser windows, as well as any messenger applications, then run the downloaded uninstaller;
    check C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash (if your Windows is 32-bit) or C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash (64-bit) if there are any files left;
    now run the downloaded installer.

  • Since updating my adobe flash player I am having trouble with gmail, google, hotmail, etc.

    Since updating my adobe flash player a couple of days ago some of my web pates are acting strangely. One that is not a big deal, but is strange is that my the google logo is missing from the main google search page. Another is that I cannot login to hotmail at all. I just get a blank screen. When I check my gmail account I can only use the basic html page. When I go to the adobe flash test page it says that everything is working fine. I have the latest firefox. Is there a web page where I can go to check my current firefox to make sure it's working?

    After i install the latest version, the advertisement which display in the web site are keeping flashing on my laptop screen.
    After i uninstall and re-install it back, the situation still remain same.
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

    I experienced the same problem on my Win7 Pro SP1 x64 lenovo T410 laptop with Intel HD Graphics.  There was no video driver update available.
    I followed the instructions in this topic: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/853591 (step #4) and went back to version 10.2.
    Problem solved.  I just have to remember not to do any updates to flash player when prompted.  I'll come here first to make sure the problem is fixed.

  • I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated.

    Model Name: iMac
      Model Identifier: iMac12,1
      Processor Name: Intel Core i5
    I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated.

    "If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
    Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
    As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
    I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
    Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.

  • On 12/23/11 I update the adobe flash player and have had problems since- unexpected closing and freezing. Remove the adobe flash player and those problems resolved. How do I go back to the earlier version of adobe?

    I was prompted by Firefox to update my adobe flash player on 12/23/11, which I did. Ever since then the web site has frozen and/or crashed. I run a internet business and can't have this continue. I uninstalled the flash player and the problems have stopped. I would like to reinstall the earlier version of adobe, since that didn't seem to impact the web site.
    This is the flash player I installed on the 23rd - Flash Player 10.3 for Mac OS X 10.4-10.5 (Intel)

    Your above posted list of installed plugins doesn't show the Flash plugin for Firefox.<br />
    See [[Managing the Flash plugin]] and [[Installing the Flash plugin]]
    You can check the Adobe welcome and test page: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    You can use this manual download link:
