I cant find the "edit option" button to download the flash player update !!

i cannot watch any videos and sorts because it says that i have to download the updated version of flash player. but to do this i have to type adobe.com but i cannot find the "edit option" button for me to do this !! helllp !
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== i went to watch a video ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

That "edit option" info is for older versions of Firefox.
1. You need to use Firefox at the Adobe website to get the NPAPI version of Flash for non-IE browsers.
Download the Flash plugin from the Adobe [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/thankyou/ Thank You!] page via:
'''If it does not start, [http://www.adobe.com/go/fptroubleshoot click here] for troubleshooting information.'''
On the [http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/support/index.html troubleshooting page] click the link at the bottom:
If you are still having problems, [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe click here to download].
Save it to your Desktop.
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed,
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

I have tried multiple step, i have tried a clean boot, i also did a scan of the security files of microst to se if there was something wrong with the files i know it's a bug in the coding. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling problem is it's always running and i cannot disable it because i don't see any programs running on flash in my process. I have talk to multiple tech support and since this has been going on for two weeks and adobe has no tech support only a community of experts it has not gotten resolved and won't be anytime soon so plz if you have advice plz inlighten me cuz i am done it's getting really old really fast.

Hi, I've been working on this problem on my computer, windows vista, for a while now
and since nothing can correct this problem
I just now discovered that there are two flashplayerupdateservice.exe on my hard drive!
one in my windows\system32 directory and
the other one in windows\system32\MacroMed\Flash
exactly the same version, same everything, 11.6.602.180 both of them
I suspect having two copies of the same program is what makes it crash.
Can Adobe please fix this problem? It's just annoying, does not hurt and you can leave it alone
and go on with your business, but it would be nice to get rid of that error message.
Thanks

Why the Flash Player updates almost every day?

Why does the Flash Player update almost every day?

You think these are the only/main cause of security issues?
As a developer let me tell you it is far from the case. Most security issues are a direct result of user carelesness.
Let me give you an example....
I'm just a loley ole developer, no one special, but I do create many web apps/mobile apps, and many are free, and widely distributed.
One example is a social networking web app based on html5 and google maps api - a gps enabled social web app.
trufaces.com
This is just one example of hundreds, I offer free hosting services truimagz.com/host and mush more.
Anyway, the point is... do you have any idea how many people sign up using an email adress and their actuall email password as their login info?
90%+
I, just some schmuck, have access to over 50,000 email accounts and passwords at any given moment. Thank god I'm trustworthy eh?
Just food for thought.

I've installed the flash player update, but I don't know how to make it run.

How do you launch the new update on safari? I can't view any web videos.

Attention Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Users:
We are working closely with Apple to address a few known issues related to Mac OS X 10.7 and Flash Player 10.3. For a list of known issues, please see the following Knowledge base Article:
Flash Player
Flash Player may cause higher CPU activity when playing a YouTube video. This issue isossibly related to disabled hardware acceleration.
UPDATE: The final release of Mac OS X 10.7 provides the same support for Flash hardware video acceleration as Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6). The previous known Issue suggesting that video hardware acceleration was disabled in Lion was incorrect and based on tests with a pre-release version of Mac OS 10.7 that related to only one particular Mac GPU configuration. Adobe continues to work closely with Apple to provide Flash Player users with a high quality experience on Mac computers.
The Flash Player Settings dialog box doesn't respond to mouse clicks. As a workaround, press the Tab key to move to the Close button and press the spacebar to close the dialog box. While not all settings are available, you can also use the Flash Player native control panel in System Preferences.
Custom native mouse cursors don't animate properly on Mac OS 10.7.
G,
Thanks for posting that. It sounds like there was an issue, it only involved one type of setup, and they list a work around for it. I'm running the latest version of Flash without issue on 10.6.8.

Can't view certain websites due to no adobe flash player....but safari @ ipad2 cant install the flash player. How to repair this?

Cant view certain website due to no adobe flash player but cant install flash player.
I'm using ipad2 ios 5.0.1

Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and they have recently announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, and there is the built-in YouTube app.

Hi, Check in the plugins for Shockwave Flash plugin and make sure it's Enabled. Also any app like Click-to-Flash or other like apps will keep Flash content blocked, so check that also.

Where can I find the Flash Player Administration Guide for Flash Player 10.1?

The guide can be found at the following location:
Adobe Flash Player Administration Guide for Flash Player 10.1

Or, for web access, you can use the Chrome web browser, that has Flash built into it. It's available from http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=95346

Downloaded, Installed Flash Player Update to 10.1: Can't find it

Hi,
I'm on a Mac Pro Quad-Core Intel Xeon, 64-bit, OS 10.6.4 and use Firefox as my main browser.
I have three (3 ) Flash Player applications (version 10, 0, 22, 87 ) on my computer, located in:
Applications/Adobe Flash CS4/Players/Flash Player.app
Applications/Adobe Flash CS4/Players/Release/Flash Player.app
Applications/Adobe Flash CS4/Players/DeBug/Flash Player.app
I just updated my Firefox browser to FF 3.6.10, which advised I needed to install an updated Flash Player (to 10.1)
So I downloaded install_flash_player_osx_ub and followed the instruction to install the update.
It said I would have to close all browsers for the install to be successful. I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that when I double clicked on the install icon it would alert me that it was time to close the browsers and/or automatically close the browsers. I followed the prompts to install. It never prompted me to close anything and proceeded to install the update. The install was deemed successful.
I checked my Flash Player.app version by going to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. It said, "You have version 10,1,82,76 installed."
I checked my Firefox Plugins and have the Shockwave Flash 10.1.53.64 plugin. (Don't know if that is the latest or not)
However, I cannot find a Flash Player with the version of 10,1,82,76.
The question is, was that update installation really successful?
The other question is if it was successful, where will I find it?
Finally, was I supposed to uninstall my Flash Player apps?
The original 3 versions of Flash Player.app still say they are version 10, 0, 22, 87.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi, You didn't have a clean Uninstall. I think what you need to do now is use the Troubleshooting Guide for Mac and follow the instructions. I would first click on the Uninstall info and get that done. I'm sure it will guide you through to confirm that you have Uninstalled all of the old Flash Player. Then go back and click on the Install info and follow that.
Link: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html
This time after you confirm that the old Flash files are Uninstalled, I wouldn't go to the test site. Either follow the instructions in the Troubleshooting Guide(which is best) or the Install link I gave you.
I don't troubleshoot Macs since I am not familiar with the system. Uninstall and Install info, and some basic instruction that is the same as PC's, test sites, etc.
If I could help you further, I would. Adobe has revised Troubleshooting Guides for the PC & Mac, Uninstall and also Install info just recently. Since I use a PC, I cannot obtain as much information as I would like from the Mac guide, since it detects I don't have a MAC, LOL It doesn't know that I don't want to Uninstall or Install, just want info for you or other Mac users:-)
But go ahead and try the Troubleshooting Guide for Mac, it is the latest.
Thanks,

Why does the Flash player update push me to install McAfee Security Scan Plus?

When Flash asks me if I want to update, it takes me to an Adobe page to update it, but there is a checkbox already checked to install McAfee Security Scan Plus. I already have an anti-virus program installed. Why does the flash update page assume that I want to install this software?

Generally this occurs because there's a third-party plug-in that affects how the JavaScript on the page got executed. Ghostery, AdBlock Pro and NoScript are common candidates.
Under normal operating conditions, you should see an opt-out dialog like the one below. While cost-recovery measure are a reality for a product that is tremendously expensive to develop and distribute free of charge, the intent is absolutely to allow you to opt out.
If you want to avoid the download and installation experience for Flash altogether, switch to a browser that includes Flash Player as a built-in component, like Google Chrome or Internet Explorer on Windows 8 and higher.

Why do I keep getting the Flash Player update message?

Every time I switch on my PC I get a message from Adobe about an available update to Flash Player. If I try to download/install from the message, it fails. I already have Flash Player. I asked Norton to help and yesterday they downloaded Flash Player onto my PC from the Adobe website. I'm on Windows 7 and the version of Flash Player I have seems to be 13.0.0.214 but I STILL keep getting the message from Adobe inviting me to install the update. it is driving me mad. Here's a copy of the message:

Hi Pat
Apologies if my email didn't make it clear that I had been trying to download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player by following the instructions in their message, but it always failed. Then Norton downloaded and installed it on my PC (remotely) while I watched, but when I checked the programmes on my PC it wasn't the latest version that appeared on the list. However following your email I have tried again just now (by downloading and installing from Adobe's website) and it installed OK and the latest version now shows on my programmes. Fingers crossed that I don't get that message again next time I switch on my laptop...!
Many thanks for responding.
Kind regards,
Heather

Why did you sneak McAfee into the Flash Player update?

Can you stop such nonsense? Seriously, I pay you money each month not to have my computer polluted with such crap. McAfee is crap and no one wantsa it. I had to stop working to remove it... you are wasting my company's time!
Do not embed anything in a Flash player or any other update!!! It's almost as if you do not respect your customers!

Thanks Mike M.
I suppose because I subscribe to creative cloud, I get constant notices of software updates and just press them. i did not see anything about McAfee and take offense to Adobe inserting it, especially as I am a paying, subscribing customer.
It's a drag when you mistakenly load anti-virus software and then sometimes, even after removing it, remnants remain, which can interfere with your chosen anti-virus software... Adobe should know better!
And thanks for the tip... I wil do that next time.

Update to Flash Player 11 has caused our Flash content to crash the Flash Player plugin. Why?

I work for a health and safety training company and we've create a SCORM compliant course using Flash that has been imported into Absorb LMS (our own instance of it www.astutis-elearning.com). There are nine modules in the course each developed using Flash Professional CS5.5.
These all worked fine using the Flash Player 10.3 plugin but since the Flash Player update to 11 our modules (not all Flash content) crash the plugin at certain places. Some modules load fine and then crash later, some modules get through the preloader scene and then crash as soon as it gets to the main menu. We've done some testing and don't know if it could be a Flash component that is causing the issue. At any rate, they used to work with 10.3 and they don't work with 11. We've tried on a number of machines and browsers. Its the same on all of them.
I am prepared to provide a login for people willing to help to see what is causing the problem.
This is an important issue as we have people who are currently on the course that may not be able to complete the course if they upgrade their version of Flash to the latest version. I hope I have provided enough information. Let me know if you need any more.

Paul and DevChaz,
Like you, I am a Flash Developer at a company that creates eLearning. Therefore, I assume that the way that we use Flash is very similar. I was quite excited as I read through this thread since I have been experiencing very similar browser crashes in my newer courses since FP11 came out. Like you, we have recently upgraded to CS5.5.
All of my crashes are with AS2 courses. I would be curious to know if yours are AS2 or AS3.
Anyway, I took my use case, saved the flas down to CS4 and recompiled all the swfs. This did not fix the problem as it did for you (see DevChaz's earlier post in this thread dated Oct 12, 2011 4:46 PM).
I have my problem logged in the Adobe BugBase here:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3018637
fpMonster,
I have recently added my cs4 versus cs5.5 compiled use_case on bugbase. I am hoping that you'll look at this use_case and compare it to PaulGray's use_case to see why my use_case does NOT work correctly when compiled in a lower version of the Flash IDE. In addition, perhaps you could share notes regarding this issue with someone at BugBase. Thanks in advance.

I cant find the "edit option" button to download the flash player update !!
