I just can't be bothered with updating adobe flash - run into a problem every time and I am busy elsewhere on computer

Next time I try to update I will be in a better situation to
state the response I get about not completing the update.I
will try and follow thru with this at another time. It us not
convenient for me to become involved with the process at this
time.

It's really up to you how often you want to clear history. If you have a large hard drive, Firefox may save history for a year or more...

  • Why am I reminded daily to update Adobe Flash Player. Do I need it and why?

    I do not know of which use is Adobe Flash Player? I am reminded daily to update to avoid problems with Firefox.
    I do not look movies or play games in the internet.
    When starting to update Adobe Flash Player, I get afraid by the accompanying questions for private data.
    Tell me what happens when I do not update Adobe Flash Player.
    Regards Gerhard

    It is recommended to update it as the latest version as it includes security updates. A lot of sites use Flash to display their content, it is not just used for movies and games.
    You can carry on using your current version of Flash, just be aware that it has published security holes.

  • MAC OS 10.6.8 Using Safari 5.1 Needing Help With Updating Adobe Flash

    Hello-
    Recently Adobe Flash installed an icon in my System Preferences and when I click the icon there are several tabs.  One allows updates to check automatically.  It says it will install the latest version of Flash without having to remove the previous version, but I have never been told that a newer version is available unless I clcik "check now."  although "Check for updates automatically" is checked, I do not know where it tells me a newer version is available.  Also, there has been 5 "newer versions" available since this icon was installed in System Prefeences, I have only found out about the newer versions when I clicked "Check Now."  If I read that with this new way to install the latest Mac version of Flash does not require me to uninstall the previous version of Flash how do I install the most recent version of Flash?  Does it come in an email?
    Since it is not telling me that there is a more recent version of Flash unless I click "Check Now" should I still do it the way I used to install the latest version of flash?  (The way before this icon was added to System Preferences)?
    I would appreciate help with updating Flash to the most recent version.  I used to uninstall the older version, restart the browser and download the most recent version and install it.  It always worked find but this was before there was an Adobe icon in my system Preferences.

    Hello,
    The way you used to do this (uninstall, restart the browser, etc.) is still definitely valid and probably the "safest" way to get a new version installed.  Uninstalling shouldn't be required, but it definitely doesn't hurt.  If you feel comfortable doing it the old way, please feel free to continue using that process.
    As for notifications, this is a bit trickier, but in general you should be notified within 30 days (or so) after a new player is released.  This usually occurs when the browser loads swf content.  Clicking the button will, like you mention, immediately check.  Another alternative to finding out when a new player is released is to subscribe to our Flash Player Releases feed.
    Is there a way to be automatically notified when a new Flash Runtime release is made?
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Trouble with updating Adobe Flash Player

    I keep getting prompts on my macbook to update my adobe flash player, however when I attempt to go through the process, I make it all the way to step 3 of 3 (it appears as though it's downloading) until I get a message that says "Adobe Flash Player could not be installed"  Any ideas?  Thanks!

  • Why do I get a message every time I open an email to update the flash which I've done 4 times and restarted. Plus I can't attach anything since updating to 5.0

    I have to use IE to get anything done. this is very annoying.

    There are two different versions of Flash for Windows PC's. One for IE called the ActiveX version, and one for other browsers known as the Plugin version. Both of those versions of Flash should appear in the Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs.
    Your listing of Installed Plugins doesn't show that you even have Adobe Flash installed for Firefox.<br />
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    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). <br />

  • Problem with updating Adobe reader 9.4.6.252

    Hi, I am new at this so here goes.
    I am having a problem with downloading Adobe Reader 9.4.7. Every time I start the update it freezers my entire computer.
    The only way of fixing the problem that I have found that works is to turn the entire computer off.
    I am running with windows XP SP3.
    Can anybody help please.
    At present I have Version 9.4.6.252 Adobe Reader

    Then you may want to try the following: 
    Run this fix from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Uninstall all traces of any versions of Reader using Add/Remove Programs
    If you want to reinstall Reader, download it from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8): can't update adobe flash - now Word, Chrome, etc. all crashing on startup

    I am not computer savvy, so if you answer, please be slow and deliberate. thanks!
    Was having Adobe shockwave/flash problems while running Chrome, which is not completely unheard of. Restarted my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8), which included a software update (though I'm not sure exactly what programs were updated).
    Now Chrome will not run at all. Every time I start, it crashes immediately. Have tried SEVERAL times to trash/download it, but the same version seems to keep appearing in my Applications folder. Have also tried trashing the Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome folder to no avail. Appears back in its place after dragging it to the trash. 
    In addition, Adobe flash videos for Safari and Firefox (which I just downloaded as a tester) also will not work. Each attempt to update Adobe Flash also ends in a crash. And now I've discovered the same for everything Microsoft (Word, Excel, PowerPoint). The program shuts down and the Microsoft error message appears breifly, followed by the same crash "Mircrosoft Word Error Reporting Quit Unexpectedly" box.
    Again, have tried several times to download Chrome & Adobe Flash to no avail. All system updates have been made to date. What to do next?

    Has your computer started running slowly as well?  Everything taking forever to work?
    if so, this is the same type of issues I'm having.

    If I'm understanding you correctly, those apps have stopped working and you are getting a message saying that they won't work with this version of Mac OS X when you try to open them. Is that right? If so, have you moved those apps out of their original locations? That is a bad idea, as it prevents them from being properly updated. If this is what has happened, what version of the system were you running before they stopped working, and what version are you running now, after installing the update that has made them stop working?
