I keep installing flash player but it keeps saying missing plugin

Flash used to work fine, but now every time I try to watch a flash video I get either a box saying to install Flash or it says missing plugin.  I've downloaded and installed flash player numerous times, but it never works.

Hi a,

I suspect you'll need to run the uninstaller, then install the newest version.

  • I have a Nexus 10 and I followed your instructions on installing flash player, but I still get a "plugin is needed" . It doesn't give me the tap option

    Like I mentioned above, I followed everything in the instructions but when I view the flash in apps it still says plugin is needed. I still can't view any flash program.

    What is your Android version as 4.4 kitKat has some removed things that is needed by the old Flash 11.1 plugin for Android.
    However Mozilla may have managed to make the Flash plugin sill work in the Android version of Firefox 29.0a1 on the unstable Nightly channel as of yesterday.
    If you are willing to be tester and get updates each day. <strike>http://ftp.mozilla.org /pub/mozilla.org/ mobile/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-android/fennec-29.0a1.multi.android-arm.apk</strike> use the Firefox 27.0 release instead.
    However according to bug 935676 the next Beta build of 27.0 may have the patch also. The current 27.0b6 is from Jan 14 so it does not have it.

  • I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated.

    Model Name: iMac

    I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated.

    "If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
    Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
    As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
    I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
    Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.

  • I just update my flash player but it is showing "blocked plugin" now when I try to play a video

    I just update my flash player but it is showing "blocked plugin" now when I try to play a video

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
    1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    3. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    4. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

  • Install flash player, but during install told to shut down safari

    I am a new mac user, with at desk top using ios 10.9.  Been trying to download Adobe Flash player but during installation it quits and I get a dialogue box telling me to shut down Safari.  I don't have Safari open.......

    I figured it out from another thread.  you need to "Quit" Safari before installing.  Yes, its nothing to worry about once you figure it out, but until that time its frustrating for people switching from PC to MAC.

  • I installed Flash Player but web content not recognizing it.

    I am running FireFox and a web site required Adobe Flash Player to view a video clip.  I downloaded the latest version and installed it, but the website still does not recognizes it.  I'm not sure what to do next.  Help please.
    Thanks!
    [email protected]

    I think I am confused.  The web site said I need Adobe Flash Player.  You mention Shockwave and Flash.  I know there is a program called Shockwave Flash, so is the Shockwave and Flash any way associated to Shockwave Flash?  The names are very confusing to me.
    I have Shockwave Flash disabled since the website said I needed Adobe Flash.  I downloaded and installed the latest Adobe Flash Player, but it is not coming up in the possible add-ons for Firefox.
    Do I need to uninstall Adobe Flash Player and then activate Shockwave Flash and then reinstall Adobe Flash Player?  Is there a sequence to this?
    Also, how does this Shockwave for Director come into play, since it says it’s for Netscape?
    Thanks for your help making sense of these names!
