IE security warning- asks to install Adobe Flash Player

We encountered this problem when running SWF created with Flash CS6 on IE8. It will show a blank page with a smaller icon at the top left corner first. Then, a dialog box "Internet Explorer - Security Warning" shows up, Do you want to install this software? Name: Adobe Flash Player. with options "Install" and "Don't Install" click don't install will display the SWF right after. Install does not do much as it prompts the same message when you come back again.
The file works fine if running from Chrome. I didn't see this message using CS6 when I published the file last time (~ 3 months ago).

I tried a different way and it prompts: This content requires Flash player 11.7. We have no control over our users' player version and our users can't upgrade player on their own. What are the features in Flash CS6 requires 11.7 so that I can remove it?
Thanks,

Safari keeps asking to install Adobe Flash player

While trying to use Hulu to see a movie, I get a message to install the latest version of Flash player app. I do it and apparently, it install successfully, but when I get back to Hulu, I continue to get the same message, and can't see any movie. Don't have any problem with Google Chrome. Any ideas to fix this? Thanks.

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 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. 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. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. 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.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. 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.

Why does it keep asking me to install adobe flash player even after i have installed it once? Please help me

No idea. What did the folks on the Adobe forums say when you posted there, since it's Adobe's software you're having trouble with?

My mac keeps asking for a password when I try to install adobe flash player. Even with the hint I'm not getting it and also tried uninstall and the same thing occurred.

It's referring to the MAC password that you have setup.
A software prompts for a password only when there are restrictions set on the user account for unauthorised access to system files and folders.

Hi, glad that worked for you. Also thanks for the explanation as how you came about this. Yes, from my understanding any Install of the CS5, even a trial version Installs the 10.1 (beta/prerelease) versions. It is not clear to me or others why the 10.1 was used in the CS5 instead of the latest version (10.0.45.2). My only guess is that the 10.1 is very close to being released as a shipping version (final release) to the public. The 10.1 had a target date of the first half of 2010. Perhaps that was the reasoning. This is just my opinion:-)
As I said, many users are having this problem, not just with the CS5, but they Install the 10.1 thinking that will solve whatever problem they may be having with the latest version.
Your thread is very helpful for other users that may be having the exact problem that you were. For this reason if you marked your thread as answered, they would read it first.
Thanks,

Apple's reason for making iOS incompatible with Flash is that playing Flash content is processor consumptive and kills batteries as well as shortening battery life in mobile devices like iPhones and iPads.
Apple officially recommends SkyFire browser available through the App Store.
This is that I told. Thats Apple managers reply on question "Why". There is no any batteries or CPU issues. If Apple allow install Flash as browser plugin - Adobe will develop that plugin easy. There is no any security and performance issue. This is all fiction of sick heads of Apple top managers. And they doing the same with HTML5 witch performance was reduced on iOS7. Because web offer many applications and games that can be played without AppStore - they limited perforamnce in OS7. Just try to use HTML5 canvas on the same device with iOS 6 and iOS 7.
When you open browser with Flash - iOS must ask you would you like to see Flash or skip plugin activation (for this page, once, always). So users can decide do they want Flash or not. Who don't care about myth about "battery, cpu, securiy" - will use Flash. But I'm really telling you - 8 from 10 will enabled plugin and play. Play a lot. And Apple will not receive any funds from browser plays. So users will slowsly pass AppStore and play...play in the browser.
This is only one real resone. The rest is a myth! Games can reduce battery a lot. Why Apple don't block games from AppStore? Correct - becase Apple receive 30% from each transaction. You can develop real flash browser but it never be accepted by AppStore because this browser will hit all Apple politics. Pseudo-flash browsers it's not real flash browsers. Just technology cheating that work. Not more.

Having problem installing adobe flash player 11.0.1.152 says close mozilla how do you do this

I have tried several times to install Adobe flash player 11.0.1.152. It keeps stating to shut off Mozilla. How do you shut Mozilla off?

"Ctrl+Shift+Esc" placing you into the Windows Task Manager, you need to be in the in the "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is no longer running -- if it is running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu. (That is a Windows 7 keyboard shortcut not in earlier versions of Windows)
There is a better way of ending Firefox, but it is too late for you to close firefox properly. Full set of directions to check and update flash.
Make sure you are starting in the correct place for Flash

Frequent Fails when installing Adobe Flash Player (Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1)

Constantly see the following error message from Adobe Flash Player Installer:
Error has been encountered. Close this window and try downloading again.
What in heck does that error message mean?
This message occurs most of the time when I try to update to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.
It would be one thing if it was only occurring on Windows XP, but it shows up on Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1 frequently.
Just for curiousity looked at the Windows 8.1 Event Viewer and NO error message shows up there.
Would be nice to:
(1) know what the error really is so that it can be reported to you to get it fixed once and for all.
(2) have Adobe Flash Installer NOT to delete itself every time that the installer is run.
(3) have an OFFLINE download installer to download and install Adobe Flash Player without the MacAfee installer.
(4) have Adobe UNCHECK that the Install MacAfee installer that you have to opt out of each time you do an Adobe Flash Player download. You should make it to OPT IN not OPT OUT! Don't need another program installed without my permission. This causes issues when I have to uninstall MacAfee on computers that others in my family use.
It seems to takes up to 20 times to download the Adobe installer over a period of many days or weeks to get it to install properly.
I have written software for over 36 years as a computer programmer and now Senior Software Developer. I have do installers on my own and have to figure out how to solve my own issues on the installers to get them fixed.
This issue doesn't seem to be tied to any particular version of Windows... Same issue occurs on Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8.0, and Windows 8.1! The ONLY commonality seems to be Adobe Flash Player.
Certainly Adobe should be smart enough to fix this issue once and for all.
If the issue is that there is a network congestion error that it cannot download the installer, please say so and please please please DO NOT delete the downloaded installer every time that it is run on a PC.
I'd like to fix the security issues with the Adobe Flash Player AS SOON as there is a patch for it. I don't like having security issues over a long period of time.
Please address this issue so that I can put this to bed and not have to keep sending you messages that once again the Adobe Flash Player Installer is yet again broken!
Certainly you have a staff at Adobe that CAN fix this problem quickly!

more information about errors can be found in the FlashInstall.log file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash (and the SysWOW64 equivalent on 64-bit systems)
the offline installers (below) do not delete themselves
you can find the offline installers
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
