IE 9 and 10 will not launch flash player

This is in regards to my desktop. About three weeks ago I started having issues with the Flash Player not working when called upon by a website as an add-on to IE 10. So I called Microsoft Support and they did all manner of system restore and now the computer is all hosed up. One of the things they did do was uninstall IE 10 and reinstall IE 9. While IE 9 was more stable, IE 9 will not launch the Flash Player either when prompted by a web site. Flash Player WILL launch if I use Chrome or Firefox. The solution that everyone throws my way is not to use IE, but that doesn't fix the issue of getting IE 9 to luanch the flash player when called upon by a web site. Microsoft seems bamboozled by this and their tech support overseas has no idea how to fix this short of a clean install and startiong over from scratch - which seems like the most likely scenario. My desk top is running Windows 7 - build 1. IE Explorer is version 9.0.17. The machine is a 64 bit Intel Core i7 CPU with 870 at 2.93 Ghz. AV is ESET, udated, runs everyday. I have tried putting sites on the on the pop-up blocker allow list and have shut Microft's pop-up block oiff completly with no behavioral change form the computer. I have also disable all of the add-ons and re-enable them, with no change. The most recent version of Flash Player is the one I installed this morning from the adobe web site.

Does this FAQ help?

Leopard seeing app as PowerPC and will not launch

I have a situation where Leopard is seeing an application hosted on a Mac server as a PowerPC app and will not launch it on some Intel Macs in my lab. However, the app is not a PowerPC app and will in fact launch correctly on other Intel Macs in my lab that are also running Leopard. On those Macs that it won't work on, the icon appears differently than on those where it will launch. Grayed out as PowerPC apps are supposed to on Intel Macs in Leopard. However, on those where it will launch the icon appears correctly. It's the same exact app though and the same exact OS on all workstations.
Has anyone seen this issue and if so, is there a way to resolve it?

Anyone? I can not get Intunes to load without crashing. See system setup above. Is there a fix that someone can suggest?

"C:\Windows\system32\softpub.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error."
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with one of the Windows OS dlls associated with Cryptographic Services.
I'd first try the fixit from the following Microsoft document. (One of the things it does is reregister your copy of the softpub.dll file.)
You cannot install some updates or programs
... but if you still get the issue, I'd try an sfc /scannow as per the instructions in the following document:

Safari will not enable Flash Player.

I have installed, uninstalled, rebooted, checked forums, and followed all the instructions. I have a Mac operating OS X Mavericks and cannot use Adobe Flash Player. When I select Safari>Preferences>Security, There is no option for me to select "allow all other plug-ins" I have JavaScript enabled but there is no check box to enable Flash Player. I would very much like to access YouTube on my new Macbook Pro. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dom

Dom, the Preferences>security appears different between versions.
Safari 7 (Mavericks) or Safari 6 (Mt. Lion)
Safari 5 (Snow Leopard)
Check your System Preferences to be sure it's installed.

Adobe Reader will not open Flash Player on my iMac

Hi Folks,
For some reason I cannot install Flash Player. I used to have it on my iMac but now don't, maybe I inadvertantly deleted it somehow?
I've tried re-downloading the app but keep getting the message as below.
I've even tried copying the download to a Flash drive from my Mac Pro ( on which it works fine) and saving it directly into the Utilities folder on my iMac, still no luck. When I click on the icon it only comes up with the option to "remove" Flash Player
Got any ideas?
Cheers
Peter

Hi Peter,
It appears that somehow Reader has become the default program to open DMG files. You'll want to open the DMG with DiskImageMounter.app. DiskImageMounter is found in /System/Library/CoreServices/DiskImageMounter.app.
Right-click on the DMG installer file and select 'OpenWith'
This will reveal a menu that should have DiskImageMounter.app listed.
If DiskImageMounter.app is not listed, select Other... and navigate to /System/Library/CoreServices/DiskImageMounter.app.
This will mount the DMG revealing the actual installer .app file inside
Double-click the .app file and proceed with the instructions to install Flash Player.
You'll actually want to make DiskImageMounter.app the default program to open DMG files so that you don't encounter the same scenario in the future.

Mac will not update flash player, please advise

My Adobe Flash Player needs to be updated to 15.0.0.189 but the site will not allow me to download. Says 'Your antivirus software must allow you to install software.' I have a Mac OS X 10.7.5. No antivirus software installed. Checked the forums but can not find any info specific to this issue. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I don't believe that what you're experiencing is legitimate. This sounds like an attempt to get you to install malware. I'm thinking that you may have been tricked into downloading a fake Flash Player. Let's throw that installer away and start again.
Download Flash Player from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation.
If that gives you trouble please try the alternate installer:

It will not let flash player install. How do I fix it.

My games on Facebook stopped loading and it says that Firefox has disabled flash player. I have tried to re-install and it will not let me. I have un-installed both Firefox and flash player and Firefox still will not let me re-install flash player.

Found this item it may help
OK, I have fixed it here. Here's what I did:
quit iTunes
trashed ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
started iTunes, and authorised my account
Worked straight away after that !

Contribute CS3 will not publish Flash Player

A few months ago the company I work for bought Contribute CS3
to edit our website. The homepage of our website contains a Flash
Player file. When I edit and publish this homepage Contribute will
not publish the Flash Player file this section just shows up blank
stating movie not loaded when I bring up our website. The same
thing happens even when I do a 'send for review' before I actually
publish the page. I have administrator rights through Contribute to
edit this website therefore I am confused as to why Contribute will
not publish this Flash Player file. I have also tired to reinsert
the Flash file while editing in Contribute and still the file will
not publish. Would anyone know why this would happen?
Thanks!

Is this occurring with other Web CS applications or only with
Contribute CS3? For general troubleshooting of Web CS products

Safari does not recognize flash plug-in and will not play flash video

I use Safari as my go-to browser for web sites that would otherwise require me to turn off my several ad-block/flash-block plugIns for Firefox. I do have it set to ask for permission ('Trust this site?') for every time I use flash on a new site (since I reset Safari regularly and clear all cookies every time I close it this means every time, every site, it asks). New problem started sometime in the past week: Safari is returning a 'download flash' icon on some videos on some web sites--but on others it correctly goes through the 'trust this site to use flash?' routine and when I click 'trust now' it plays the video normally. Trying to figure out if this is a Safari problem, flash problem, or web site problem. How can Safari both recognize that flash is being asked for (that's why it shows me the 'download flash now' icon, right?) and not recognize that it has flash installed?
Safari Version 7.0.4 (9537.76.4)

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. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
