I get a "connection error" when trying to update/install Flash Player

I have a previous version of Flash player so I was trying to update it. The installation doesn't make it past 5% before saying "connection error". I have tried all the troubleshooting steps and even tried to uninstall it. When I try to download the uninstaller, I get a page on safari that says "safari cannot connect to server" (I also tried on firefox too, same problem). I have tried to locate it in my toolbar and applications to uninstall it from there with no luck, it has completely disappeared. Not in my trash, nowhere. Not sure what else to do. I am running on Mac OS X 10.7.5. When I have Adobe check to see if it is installed on my computer, it says that a previous version is installed, 16.0.0.

Hi,
Can you Please provide Configuration of your XP, Win7 Machine [How to post a screenshot in the forum]?
To check if Windows 7 Service Pack is already installed, follow the below steps:
Click the Start button , right-click Computer, and then click Properties.
The basic information about your computer page will open.
To check if Windows XP Service Pack is already installed, follow the below steps:
Click the Start button , right-click Computer, and then click Properties.
Click System and Service Pack Information will be listed
Please also attach log [Where do I find the Flash Player installation log on Windows?], [How to share a document] and Share the Current Version of Flash Player goto - [https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html] and click on Check Now button, using about method can you place the screenshot.
Meanwhile you can also try cleaning Application Temporary Data and Try again. [c:/users/username/appdata/local/temp folder - Microsoft Community], Due to some reason the Installer file is getting corrupted which might be blocking Flash Player Installation. After cleanup try using the offline Installer [Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows]
Thanks

  • Why do I keep getting a connection error when trying to connect to SQL?

    Environment:
    LiveCycle ES2
    Windows Server 2008
    JBOSS
    Oracle Application DB
    When trying to connect to SQL, I get this error message in the log.
    Exception: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.6 is not supported by this driver. Use the sqljdbc4.jar class library, which provides support for JDBC 4.0.); - nested throwable: (org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) version 1.6 is not supported by this driver. Use the sqljdbc4.jar class library, which provides support for JDBC 4.0.))
    I have these two files located in \\jboss\server\lc_oracle_cl\lib
    sqljdbc.jar
    sqljdbc4.jar
    I was told all I needed to do was drop these two files in the directory above and restart JBOSS. Is there something I'm missing?
    Jesse

    Hi Jesse,
    The driver you are using is for SQLServer Database. Since you are using Oracle as your database, you need an oracle driver.Please copy ojdbc6.jar from the [installDir]/lib/db/oracle/ directory and try again.
    Thanks,

  • Why am I getting a "connection error" when trying to buy a paid app in the Mac App Store?

    Okay, so I am currently running OS X Mountain Lion on a brand new Macbook Pro 15 inch (early 2013). I haven't had any problems so far. However, today I tried buying a $10 app in the app store, and when I put in my login credentials to validate the purchase, it showed a loading wheel for about five minutes, then showed in red text, "Connection Error," just below the login fields. I've researched this issue and found it to be a bug in Lion... but no solutions for Mountain Lion. Any ideas?
    I tried doing the thing with the Keychain Access, but there were no blue pluses under "Certificates." I should also mention that my network connection is fine.
    Thanks in advance fellow Apple dudes!

  • Getting an error message trying to update Adobe Flash Player

    Every time I try to update Flash Player for Firefox, by downloading the update from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    I get the following error:
    Host
    "Unable to load application configuration"
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    In case one of your extensions is blocking data that the site needs, could you try Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

    Hi ...
    Installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) reinstalls the App Store for you which may help. Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
    It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.7.3.
    If that doesn't help, if you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
    If you have an app called LIttle Snitch installed, that can prevent apps from updating.

  • A12E3 error when trying to update/install CC Desktop App

    I couldn't update the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app because it displayed an error A12E3 during install, so I uninstalled the app with the Adobe Uninstaller I found in its application folder. Then I tried re-downloading the latest Adobe CC app and installing it but the issue was the same: error A12E3.
    Can you help me?
    Oh! Maybe I should also say that i'm on a MacPro and my OS is OSX 10.9
