I can't download Shockwave Player

I have done a silly thing.  I downloaded Shockwave Player without any problems. I looked in Add/Remove programmes in Win7 to see if it was recorded and accidentally double clicked on the entry and uninstalled Shockwave.  I tried to re-install and it wouldn't so thinking there were traces of the prog in the registry I did a system restore and tried again. When I click the download button the installation page appears but Installation Complete does not appear and nothing happens. There can not be a problem with any settings because the prog downloaded first time without any problems.  I am using Win7 64 Bit with IE8 32 Bit. Does anyone have any suggestions please?

Thanks very much for your help.  I toiled late into the night trying to sort this out. Eventually I downloaded from FileHippo but during the installation there was an error message stating that a file could not be found. (SwDir.dll).  I was invited to "Ignore" which I did and the installation completed successfully. It seems that in a number of places on the Adobe site it states that Shockwave is located in C:\Windows\system32\Adobe\ but on my computer it is in C:\Windows\sysWOW64\Adobe and this is where SwDir.dll resides. The odd thing is that first time round Shockwave installed without any problems. Anyway all seems to be working according to the test that you provided a link for so thanks.

  • How can I download Shockwave flash for my IMAC?

    How can I download Shockwave Flash to my IMAC?

    Looking at Adobe's site there is version 10.3 for Intel Macs running OSX 10.4 or 10.5.  There is version 11 for Macs running OSX 10.6 or newer.  Most web sites don't really need the newest FlashPlayer, but if you are trying to view one that really does intensive video then maybe it does require Flash 11.  You aren't very specific as to which exact error message you are seeing.
    If a site does require FlashPlayer 11 then you will have to upgrade your operating system.

    To elaborate on what Bernd said, Flash has never been available for iOS. Furthermore, Adobe no longer distributes Flash on any current Android device either.

    You can't.
    Android (Google) dropped all support for Flash last summer. The reason is the same one Apple gave seven years ago when they released iOS: Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it kills batteries... as well as shortening the battery life in mobile devices.
    Android recommends using either "Dolphin" or Puffin" as your browser (BOTH are free in the GooglePlay store). They use "server side rendering" of Flash content to reduce the load on your Android device.

    can i download QuickTime Player for free?

    If your talking about Quicktime 7, yes it is free. You download it from Apples web site. If you want Quicktime 7 Pro you need to download the Pro key from Apple's online store, you need both...

    Are you trying to update the original Xcode installer, is it still resident in your Applications folder? Because that is usually why a delta update is involved, it is updating a previous version of an app. If this is the case, then I would put the installer in the Trash and restart the Mac. Do not empty the Trash. Now see if the MAS will allow you to download the full installer for Xcode, since it can no longer detect the existence of the previous versions installer.

    Adobe make many different things. In this forum we know about Adobe Reader (now called Acrobat Reader for about a week, it's a struggle to keep up sometimes). But you mention Adobe Shockwave Player. The forum for Shockwave Player is here -- Adobe Shockwave Player . Also be sure you aren't mixing it up with Flash Player, still a third product.

    Check your mac's Serial Number.
    Some people have problems with missing serial numbers on their Macs and that's the message you get when this happens.
    Click on the Apple at the top left of the screen, open "About this Mac" and click on "More Info". You should see a list with information about your Macbook Air. Check that on the Serial Number field you have your Mac's Serial. If you have "SystemSerial#" written instead then that's your problem.
    You can re-enter your serial number if you have a USB CD drive, it's not very straightforward but I can walk you through it if you need it.
    Cheers
