I can't uninstall Flip4mac wmv player
When I try to drag it to the trash it doesn't move... Why is it so? And what can I do?
Download the installer again, in there should be unistall app.
Also....
Look in /Library/QuickTime/
There are 2 flip4mac components there to delete.
Also in /Library/PreferencePanes remove WMVPlayer.

Hi All
I am having all sorts of trouble trying to view window media videos from my university. I have downloaded Flip4Mac WMV player pro and I still can't watch the video. It is rather urgent as I need to do it for an exam at the end of this week. Can anyone help me please?
Thanks
Trish
PS: I am still new to apple so I apologise in advance if this is posted somewhere else and I haven't come across it.Hi LexSchellings
The videos can not be saved, they are automatically opening in Quicktime. I open them from a webpage. Somehow I need to get quicktime 7 to be the default program. Any suggestions?
Thanks -
I am trying open 'mv' files. I found a program called Flip4mac MWV Player Pro. Does anyone have experience with this or is there a different way to open these type of files?
It works quite well, but is only useful for playing .wmv files such as those made on older PCs. MPlayer 1.0 rc2 is a free utility that should also play .wmv files.

How can I uninstall adobe flash player?
I was required to install it when I was going to upload something on metacafe but now that I have I can't do a lot of other flash things because of it and there is like no way to get rid of it, so how can I get rid of it because the other sites I use are really important to me and now I can't use them.
You have to uninstall FlashPlayer to update it from a download rather than using the auto-updater.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
Note that Adobe requires you to uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe. -
Can I uninstall Adobe Flash Player 10 ActiveX?
I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to Adobe Flash Player 11 but when I look in the Programs and Features, I see:
Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X
Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin
The Flash Player 10 Active X is an old version that was installed 2 years ago. Should I just uninstall that Active X? Or, keep it?Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X - This is the Active X Control for Flash Player 10 (Flash Player for Internet Explorer)
Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin - This the plugin for Flash Player 11 (Flash Player for other browser, like : Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome)
If you do not need Flash Player for Internet Explorer, then you can uninstall Flash Player 10 Active X.
Thanks,

HT204382 I can't open a .wmv file with quicktime player. Shouldn't I be able to?
I can't open a .wmv file with quicktime player. Shouldn't I be able to?
No. To do so you need to install Flip4Mac WMV Player 2.4.4.2.

Why can't i open wmv videos in Lion?
since upgrading to Lion we cannot open .wmv. Why?
Because it's a windows format. You need Flip4Mac to convert it to a Mac format.

Flip4Mac WMV Query: Why it only export a portion of the QT movie?
Hello all.
I downloaded, installed and purchased the "pro version" of Flip4Mac WMV for QuickTime. My QT is QuickTime Pro, enabling me to within a QT movie, export it to various movie format, including Window's .wmv format.
But this problem has been "bugging" me since Day 1 I use Flip4Mac, when I choose to export a QT movie to a .wmv format, it does not export the entire movie (in whole, in length), but almost just export half of the length of the QT movie -- hence I am not getting the .wmv mov in whole.
Has anyone encounter this problem, and if there is any fix to this?
Thanks and cheersHi TopoTone, it's OK.
Yes, when I am in the Flip4Mac WMV Preference Pane, I see my name, a serial number and it says "Flip4Mac WMV Player Pro". 3 buttons choice of Upgrade License, Change Serial Number and Deactivate Number.
Now it's my turn to "sound stupid" but since I know very little about Flip4Mac; Please don't tell me that Flip4Mac WMV Player Pro itself do not have the feature to export a .wmv file as a whole? Is that why I am facing? That I need to at least upgrade to a Flip4Mac WMV Studio??
Thanks and cheers -
After migrating to a retina macbook with mountain lion I can not play windows media player files anymore. I use flip4mac pro 3.0 and quicktime 7.6.6.
The message I receive is: De bewerking kan niet worden voltooid. (OSStatus fout -50). I also have problems with zip files that can not be saved on the desktop anymore while unzipping.I actually installed Quicktime pro and Flip4Mac Pro again after I bought the Retina Macbook. Today I did it again but still get the same OSStatus error -50. I guess there is some old file that has to be removed. Flip4Mac comes with an uninstaller. Quicktime does not.
I read that his could be something with security that is why I mention the problem with the zip files as well. -
Anyone know when Flip4mac will have a UB version of their WMV player?
Or is their another UB WMV player out there that is worth getting.
Last time I checked their support area, they are saying, "we're working on it", but haven't published a firm release date.
Here's the "official word" from their site:

I have an Imac and can't view a wmv file. I tried fip4mav and it still won't open. Any suggestions? Thx.
Is the link to that wmv file publicly available? I'd like to try it to see what I can find out about it.
You could convert it (say using iFFmpeg or EasyWMV for example).
Note, vlc, like many other mac software, is downloaded as a .dmg file. If it doesn't automatically expand after downloading it then double click it. It will mount on your desktop showing an icon. You could then drag that icon to wherever you desire (i.e., copy the icon representing the mouted .dmg) or double click the icon to open it up like any other folder and drag the vlc.app program to the indicated applications folder. -

I need to uninstall Adobe Flash Player Installer/Uninstaller 14.0 r0
I need to uninstall Adobe® Flash® Player Installer/Uninstaller 14.0 r0 but have looked everywhere for how to do this & can not find out how to do this can someone please help? I am using A Sony Vaio, Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit, I use Chrome Version 36.0.1985.143 m.
I want to get it off of my system because ever since I installed it I have had problems with Chrome loading it does not want to load then if I restart my comptuter & I click on chrome 5 windows open up at one time a white box appears saying "Your profile can not be used because it is from a newer browser version of google chrome. Some features may be available. Please specify a different profile directory or use a different version of chrome" then if you click ok it shuts all the windows down. I have figured a way to get one window to stay open so I can use chrome, now I do have other browser I can use but I do not like them at all & do not have a flash player since mine is built in with Chrome. So on to the other problem that began as soon as I downloaded this & I understand it may not be this but I still want to get it off of my computer. I also have been having trouble with my flash player error messages: saying it has stopped working constantly, it says upgrade flash text, a plug in shock wave flash isn't responding then in (stop plug in) it wants you to hit. I have run 3 different Mallware programs through my computer just in case that was one question that was going to be ask. No other programs jave been downloaded wither.
I am not very good with computers so I have to come to places like this for help & I really have to have help explaining what to do because do not know much about computers other then getting on them & surfing the web & some basic things. When chromes message said specify a different profile directory that went right over m head. So that should give you an idea where I am coming from. I want to thank you in advance & hope I have made sense in what I have written I tried to give all the information that I could.Your screenshot of task manager clarifies things.
When I replied, I had been looking at the screenshot of the desktop from the original poster, which shows the uninstaller executable and it's properties. That executable doesn't install anything -- it can just be dragged to the trash; however, that didn't completely align with the behaviors either of you were describing, and we've been trying to figure out what you were talking about. It wasn't making a lot of sense to me, and it's not a question that I've seen come up before, at least not articulated this way.
FlashUtil32_XX_XX_XX_XX.exe is the sandbox broker for Internet Explorer. You can read more about the sandbox work here: Flash Player Security with Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10
The description listed in Task Manager is a bug, and the source of the confusion. We've been doing a lot of work modernizing our build systems, and this is fallout from that work. This is something I'd like to see cleaned up, but it's pretty low on the list of priorities.
The broker service is invoked when Internet Explorer is running in Protected Mode. On my Windows 7 machine running IE 10, running Flash content in Internet Explorer with Protected Mode enabled causes the broker service to be invoked (this is probably true for previous versions as well, but I didn't test them). If I disable Protected Mode and restart Internet Explorer, the broker is not invoked, which is expected.
To disable Protected Mode, launch Internet Explorer and choose security. Uncheck Enable Protected Mode. Internet Explorer will restart, and you should be able to verify that the broker is no longer invoked when loading content with Flash Player.
I've included a screenshot showing the expected processes in both scenarios below. As the Flash Player ActiveX control is loaded into an Internet Explorer process, you'll see the child explorer.exe process listed, which hosts the Flash ActiveX control in the process list.
Sandboxing the Flash Player plug-in is an important security mitigation intended to increase the cost of successfully developing and deploying malware. While it's not a panacea, it significantly raises the bar for attackers. As I'm sure you've read in the news and trade literature, the threat landscape has evolved significantly over the last few years, and modern security threats and their mitigations are a necessary reality. New mitigations typically come with some additional processing overhead. The overhead varies based on the architectural choices made by the particular browser vendors, but the overhead in IE is pretty reasonable.
We haven't published a blog post specific to IE, but if you're interested in the implementation details, the sandbox architecture is similar to what we did with Protected Mode for Firefox on Windows. The Flash Player process that handles untrusted content runs at Low Integrity, which restricts access to critical system resources in the event that you encounter malware designed to take control of the Flash Player process. Access to system resources is negotiated through a Medium Integrity broker process. Without Protected Mode, the Flash Player process handling untrusted content runs at Medium Integrity, making it easier for malware to escalate privileges from a hijacked process. Depending on the functionality in play, a lot of message-passing can take place between IE, the broker and Flash Player. We've effectively doubled the number of messages that get passed, plus put a bunch of validation checks in, and all of that consumes CPU. It also makes your web browsing activity more secure.
Some desktop applications (Yahoo Messenger, for example) also use the ActiveX version of Flash Player installed on your machine. This could explain why you see Flash Player and the broker invoked unexpectedly. We're also aware of an issue on Vista where the broker doesn't always exit as expected. In that instance (and on WinXP), I'd highly recommend that people use Google Chrome for web browsing, as Google has extended some security mitigations that would only be available to Internet Explorer users running in newer versions of Windows, and it doesn't suffer from this specific issue with the broker.
