I need help installing flash on windows 8

I need help installing flash on windows 8

Chris… No I was using the desktop version, I cannot stand the M version, guess it would be nice if I had  a touch screen..…when I finally got my computer to download the Acrobat Standard XI program, not sure how it worked, but I think it had something to do with Windows 8 not allowing itself to update all my apps and programs, even though my computer was set to automatically update any Windows/Microsoft updates…finally I got my Windows updates done, it downloaded like 36 files…and then I had to restart,(which also could have been playing a factor)…so finally got the program downloaded on Windows 8…but then I tried to run the new program and it says install serial #...so I assume that it was asking for the serial # for the Acrobat Standard XI…finally after googling the web, I found somebody that said try your older serial # from the previous program, and when I did this it finally works.. you would think with a brand new Windows computer I would have no problem installing Windows Updates…somebody needs to make a sticky about this, I am sure I am not the only one haiving this problem..
Thanks,

  • Need help Installing Flash player 10.3 for firefox. It stops at 50%

    So I have Windows Vista Basic Home, I tried updating my Flash version in firefox because it was out of date, but everytime it start downloading it , then I get the a message that says "Error " Appliation in use."  I uninstalled it and followed all the suggestions on the websites nothing is working. I even  uninstall google chrome thinking it was the problem but I'm still having that problem so I really don't know what to do because now the only place Flash player is installed seems to be Google chrome that I had to redoawload, but everywhere else tells me that I need to install it.

  • Need Help Installing Flash CS4 For Windows

    Hi, I have downloaded the two files to install Flash CS4 for Windows from here: http://helpx.adobe.com/uk/creative-suite/kb/cs4-product-downloads.html
    Unfortunately, there is no explanation whatsoever provided regarding how to use the two files, and how to install my product.
    I feel like I am missing something obvious here, but can someone please explain.
    Kind regards,
    Finn.

    Try uninstalling then run the Adobe Cleaner Tool
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Then double click the .exe file again.
    What do I do with the .7z file?
    Nothing. That's is an archive of files used by the .exe file during the installation process.

  • Need help installing Flash Player

    After following the Adobe trouble shooting procedures, I'm still unable to install Flash Player.  Can anyone help?  OS is Vista Home Premium.

    Thanks for your email.  I'm using Internet Explorer 8 and didn't get any error messages; however I believe the installation was unsuccessful because  I didn't see the movie used to confirm a successful installation. 
    I understand a pop-up blocker might be inhibiting the movie (TechNote tn_19091); however I still believe installation was unsuccessful because when browsing websites requiring Flash I'm prompted to install it.  (Fixing the potential pop up blocker problem requires messing with the Registry - something I'd rather not do - and doing so wouldn't fix my installation problem.)
    I followed all of the steps in Adobe "Troubleshoot Flash Player Installation for Windows" TechNote (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#installwindowsvista) with no success.
    I then contacted Adobe Tech Support with no luck and their Tech Rep referred me to this forum.
    Some background:  I uninstalled Flash last year because I believed it was the cause of frequent IE freeze ups, and then reinstalled it earlier this year with no problems until it suddenly stopped working several weeks or so ago.  I can see the FlashUtil10 application version 10.0.45.2 in the Flash folder.
    I Restored Windows to an earlier configuration - no luck - will try again as well as going thru the above trouble shooting procedures in the event I messed up.

  • Need help installing Flash Player 10.1 in PC

    When I go to the install Wizard, I get the prompts but do not get a "run" or "save" box. I currently have Flash Player 10.0 in my computer. I use Windows 7 in a HP PC.
    I'm also having problems using You Tube. Is this related?

  • Need help installing Flash Player 9

    I am trying to install Flash Player 9 on my Mac G5 OS10.3.9 I
    had it installed previously but son clicked on some sort of
    download while online and now it's not working. Yesterday it worked
    fine.I downloaded the FlasPlayer install and ran it but it always
    stops at "Items remaining to be installed -4" and just keeps
    running. I even left it go overnight to see if it finished, which
    it didn't. Please help me figure out why the remaining 4 items will
    not install. I usually use Safari 1.3.2 as my browser but I also
    have Internet Explorer 5.2.3 loaded on my computer.

    I have exactly the same problem on my G4 laptop running
    10.4.8. I hate Adobe. There isn't even a means of contacting them
    to register the problem. Apparently nobody there wants to hear from
    us.

  • Need help installing Flash on an iMac

    I am a little confused. Yesterday morning, my computer was
    working fine. A relative of mine got on the machine -- and when I
    returned later, I received a message from a website that I was on
    that I did not have Flash. I am on an Intel iMac with OSX. I have
    tried downloading a new Flash installation pack -- it comes back,
    mid-installation with the comment:
    Macromedia Flash-Player has content of MIME type
    "application/x-shockwave-flash", but you don't have a plug-in
    installed for thsi MIME type. A plug in should be accessible on
    this page (with a link to a web page).
    I have visited as many web pages as I could find -- and read
    a variety of tech notes. One instructed that I may not have proper
    permissions, but I am the administrator on this system (it is a
    non-networked personal machine). As Flash is a free product, they
    cannot / will not help here, so I am thoroughly lost. Any and all
    help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    hey!
    this thread is really interesting, coz i used to have the
    same problem with my imac g5 but somehow it solved itself, cant
    remeber what i did.. but now i have a new problem: i install flash
    player, all works fine, but as soon as i restart/shut down my
    computer, it magically uninstalls itself!!!!! i have no idea how it
    does it, or why, but i know that when i log back into my account
    the little flash player logo as a removable drive has ejected
    itself, and whenever i go to a webpage such as www.absolut.com i am
    confronted with a quicktime logo with a '?' over the top of it and
    have to re-download the installer and reinstall the plugin all over
    again. im not even sure why the computer thinks it has anything to
    do with quicktime when its clearly a Flash player problem, but
    anyway.. so if anyone has any explanation can they please tell me,
    coz its driving me INSANE!!! i was thinking of contacting Apple but
    i thought id try here first. good luck with all your problems, may
    your prayers be answered!

  • Need help installing Virtual box Windows VM's

    I am installing virtual box on wife's mac.   I got the instructions here: http://osxdaily.com/2011/09/04/internet-explorer-for-mac-ie7-ie8-ie-9-free/
    I did it previously and it all worked well. Recently the windows session license expired so I reinstalled that portion and it worked for about a week.  Then the Virtual box program just stopped working.   So I uninstalled the virtual box and am attempting to reinstall all components.
    First step is install Virtual box from here:  https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads   This went ok andvirtual box runs but there are no VM's.
    There is then a script to install the windows VM's.  It is failing.
    Script is accessed by copyinf this command into terminal:
    curl -s https://raw.github.com/xdissent/ievms/master/ievms.sh | bash
    This is the error I get.   It seems there is a file that already exists but I'm stumped as to what to do.

    Here is how I install mine, for numbers I will assume you have a 100GB HDD and 2GB of RAM:
    Boot from Win7 DVD and create two partitions, then install Windows7 on one of them. During the install Windows will create a 3rd partition to boot from. You will now have:
    sda1 - 100MB - Windows Boot - boot flag
    sda2 - 50GB - Windows 7 - no flags
    sda3 - 50GB - Unpartitioned Space - no flags
    Next boot into Arch and choose to manually partition the drives using cfdisk, using the unfinished space create 3 logical partitions of the sizes 100MB, 2GB, and 50GB. Mark the 100MB one you just created with a boot flag and unmark the 100MB one Windows created.
    Now you should have:
    sda1 - 100MB - Windows Boot - no flags
    sda2 - 50GB - Windows 7 - no flags
    sda3 - 50GB - Unpartitioned Space - no flags
    sda5 - 100MB - Linux Boot - boot flag
    sda6 - 2GB - Linux Swap - no flags
    sda7 - 50GB - Arch - no flags
    Click OK/Confirm/Write and then continue to the next step - File Systems and Mountpoints.
    Here you need to set the FS for sda5,6,7 and make sure not to touch sda1,2. Choose ext2 for sda5, swap for sda6, and ext3 for sda7. You will also be asked for mountpoints. Pick "/boot" for sda5 and "/" for sda7. Click OK/Confirm/Write and then continue to install Arch like normal, when you get to installing the bootloader make sure to install it on /dev/sda and uncomment the Windows part of the grub/menu.lst file.
    Reboot the system and you are done

  • Need help installing Flash Player in Mac OSX 10.9.2

    I`ve tried everything, my computer is brand new, and it`s driving me crazy.  Tried installing, uninstalling, everything.  Was able to install a previous version by dragging the .pkg file to the desktop, but when i try to use safari, it disables the program because of security incompatibility.  Please if anyone has had the same problem and fixed it, let me know.  Exactly at 50% progress, it crashes and a message to close safari appears, but safari is already closed.

    Finally Got it!!!  Ok, here is what i did: it was a combination of two things i read in different forums.
    1st: Go to System Preferences>Security and Privacy and in the "allow apps downloaded from: " section, select "Anywhere".   There is a file in the installation bundle from adobe that is not recognized as coming from an "identified developer".   I then went back to the adobe page and re downloaded most recent flash player.  Tried to reinstall it, and again the same problem as before.  Stopped at 50% asking to close Safari.  So i did the following:
    2nd: This time instead of closing Safari by pressing the red button X, I pulled down the safari tab and clicked on exit safari command.  Clicked the retry button on the installation window and magic!!!! it worked.  
    Finally after 5 frustrating hours it worked....  I never thought i would run in to such a problem with a brand new Mac....  with the money i paid for it, would expect much easier performance in the upgrading process.... and compatibility with adobe.... an issue that should have been resolved long ago.  I guess its a problem on both sides....  some clearer instructions for upgrade would be greatly appreciated.

  • Need help installing Itunes in Windows 7.

    The installation process seems to stall during "Publishing product information"  then give the following error message;  " An error occurred during the installation of assembly "Microsoft VC80 jCRT type ="win32", version ="8.0.50727.4053"  publicKey Token= "IFc8b3b9a1e18e3b: processorArchitecture="amd64".  Please refer to Help and Support for more information.

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)

    As Pat said, where is that Acrobat 5 reference coming from? If you really forcibly installed an old version of Acrobat (which should be impossible, but you never know...), the globally shared PDF libraries would not be compatible and trigger this warning...

  • Need Help Installing Quicktime For Windows

    I bought Quicktime Pro for Windows and want to install it.  When I reach the permissions dialogue box in Windows 7 to grant permission to install the software my mouse freezes and I can't move it to select "Yes" and proceed.  Any thoughts on a way around this issue?
    Thanks,
    Bob Z.

    i get a prompt saying "the feature you are trying to use is on a resource that is unavailable." and then it goes on to say.. "Click ok to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'quicktime.msi' in the box below."
    Unfortunately, these sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing QuickTime again. Does the install go through properly this time?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)
