I can't update adobe air. It says my administrator won't let me - but this is my own PC.

Adobe air says I need an update. Every time I try to update I get the same message. I think Firefox may be the 'administrator' in question.
How can I tell firefox to allow the installation, or make adobe air an approved site?

Latest Version of Air won't install on my MAC! Help!
Workaround mentioned in this thread by chris.campbell actually fixed same issue for me.

  • Can't update Adobe AIR after Yosemite update and need it for a third-party app.

    I updated to Yosemite and had some issues. After receiving help from Apple, I could not open a third-party app; it said I needed to update Adobe AIR. When I tried to do that, I got the same message saying I needed to update AIR again. I tried uninstalling and installing AIR but without success. What steps do I need to take?

    I had a similar problem when trying to install Zinio.air. I have made it all work out. What i did was remove Adobe Air 15 entirely from the Utiliites and Library/ accounts and preferences. I then downloaded Adobe Air 13 and installed and then clicked on Zinio .air and it all installed ok. I also had to temporarily change security settings from Apple approved to Anywhere. All functioning now.

  • HELP! - Can't update Adobe Air Apps - Application Install Error

    I have several Adobe Air Apps on my Mac OSX (10.9.4) MackBook Pro. They won't update due to the following Install Error.
    "The application cannot be installed due to a certificate problem. The certificate does not match the installed application certificate, does not support application upgrades, or is invalid. Please contact the application author."
    Following the above instructions, I've been contacting the authors of my Adobe Air Apps and they are telling me that it is not their problem. The Apps should simply update without difficulty.
    I searched the "Google" and found no fix other than uninstall and reinstall Adobe Air. Did this and the problem persists.
    If you can help me get beyond this issue and back to productivity, I'd be very appreciative.
    Thanks!

  • Can't update ADOBE after many attempts. Why won't it work?

    Keep getting messages saying I must update ADOBE. Keep following directions for update. Then I'm disallowed access to anything that requires ADOBE update and a red typed message appears again saying I need to update ADOBE. Why won't this work ? I am a senior citizen and am not a computer savvy user. Need help with this ongoing problem.

    Hello fiddle4dee, probably you mean adobe flash player, the latest flash version for your Intel Mac OS X 10.6 today is the 16.0.0.296. If you have a previous version then uninstall it with the :
    * http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
    after that you can install the latest from the next link :
    * http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    find Operating System, Mac OS X (Intel) > All supported browsers > All supported languages > '''Download DMG Installer'''
    thank you

  • Why can't I update Adobe AIR?

    I need to update Adobe AIR to continue onto Acrobat.com but when I do the update it says 'This application requires an update to Adobe AIR but downloading that update was not successful.' How do I get it to update correctly?

    Hi Rachel,
    It sounds like the Acrobat.com Desktop Applicaiton is trying to update.  Unfortunately that update doesn't exist anymore and the Acrobat.com Desktop Application is no longer supported.  I'd recommend uninstalling that application from your system.  To access Acrobat.com moving forward, visit http://acrobat.com/signin.html
    Please let us know if you have any questions.

  • Can't Install Adobe Air on Windows XP SP3

    Every time I attempt to Run the AbodeAIRInstaller, it gives me an error, saying that it has encountered a problem and needs to close.
    I have SP3, and am the administrator since this is the only account on the computer.
    I'm not sure if there's anything I need to do prior to downloading this. This is the first time I've attempted to download AIR. I have all other free products but this one.
    Performed all the troubleshooting steps like Uninstalling through Windows Installer Clean Up Utility , again getting the same error on installing.
    When I right-clicked the installer for Adobe AIR, I noticed there was an "unblock" option at the bottom that most newly downloaded i
    tems have to "protect" your computer. After clicking unblock, I can't even "run" the program. As soon as I double-click the installe
    r, it gives the Windows Error (crash) saying that the program needs to close and I can Send or Don't Send the error report. Before u
    nblocking, I was able to actually press "Run" or "Cancel".
    I have absolutely no idea why I can't install Adobe Air, of all programs... If there's a possible conflicting program, or if I need
    to have all current Windows updates (I haven't updated in a long time, but it's all security things, so I don't think that matters),
    or if I need the Flex program for you to troubleshoot, I'll do it. This whole thing is just really frustrating me.

    I hear ya. that's on an existing system with an upgrade. i've solved (well, resolved) a remote desktop problem with a rollback to sp2.
    but on the clean xp pro sp3 system (1st app install after anti-virus and firewall), the cs3 install took about 10 minutes. very fast very smooth.

  • LG MAXIMO ONE can't install Adobe Air

    Hi
    Actually my problem is simple. I can't install Adobe Air Runtime in my device because I can't find it.
    I've search for Air Apps in the Market and install a few. In the opening screen they all ask to install Adobe Air, when I search it just isn't found.
    Is this my phone problem or the Adobe Air runtime is out of the market?
    I am using Mac OSX Leopard. any tips on how to install it?
    Thanks for any tip.

    HI
    I also can't find AIR in the marjet using HTS wildfire. This device comes with Android 2.1 and the 2.2.1 update was available which i did the update.
    After that I tryed to find the Air in the Market and also can't find it.
    Because this device comes also with flash player I thought that it would be able to run Air.
    Is there any possibility to install air in this thing?
    Thanks

  • Can not update Adobe Reader as it did not come from Apple App Store.

    Can not update Adobe Reader or Adobe Lightroom 5 as they did not come through Apple App Store.  Note says I selected not to accept apps other than from Apple.  Just started backing up new Iphone and Ipad to Macbook Pro.  Is there a setting some where that would allow updates?    

    Yes there is a setting for that. Open system preferences go to the security & privacy sections, click the lock icon and type in your password. Then in the "Allow applications downloaded from: area tick Anywhere.

  • Can't Install Adobe AIR - Need Admin Permission.

    I can't install Adobe AIR on my Windows XP as it the error message says I need to contact the administrator.
    RE:
    "An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator."
    I am the owner of my PC so the amin should be myself but do not know how to do this.
    I tried the right-click on the Adobe icon on my desktop to access the admin log in, but I am unable to do this as it won't accept any passwords I entered.
    I need to by-pass the admin or find a way to access my admin. I think I read somewhere that Adobe may have an apllication for this but could not find it.
    Anyone have any idea how to get this application running on my PC?

    I'm sorry you're running into installation issues with AIR.  Microsoft has just released a new utility that can help resolve installation problems.  Would you mind giving this a try and let us know how it works for you?  When running the Fix it, go through the uninstall process and try to remove Adobe AIR from your system.  Once finished, download the latest version of AIR and install again.
    Microsoft Install and Uninstall Fix It
    If you still encounter problems, we'll need to review the AIR installer log to better diagnose the issue.  Please post back with the log contents.  You can find instructions for finding these logs here:
