If you enjoy YouTube, DO NOT INSTALL Flash 10.0.32.18

There's some bad juju going on with Flash Player 10.0.32.18 and Firefox and Safari and YouTube stability and playability. There are reports all over the web with problems on both Windows and Mac. I think it's disgusting that Adobe is ignoring this problem. No upgrades to Adobe applications for me (InDesign, Photoshop, etc.) until Adobe acknowledges they released a lemon and does something about it. Adobe, the new Quark. Customers? What customers?

Is this a problem with Flash or Flash Player?
I do not have any problems with Flash Player 10.0.32.18 on Firefox or Internet Explorer on various platforms.
If you have a problem with Flash, please post in the Flash forum.

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

  • I have a Mid 2009 Macbook Pro 13 with no restore disk; it has OS 10.8.4 I believe there is something wrong with the OS due to I can not install flash player to view Youtube videos and the when we plug in a Bose headset the sound out will work sometimes

    I bough a used Macbook Pro mid 2009 that came with OS 10.8.9 it didn't have a backup restore disk with S/N W8******66D
    When trying to view some youtube videos; a window would pop up saying "it needs adobe flash player is required for video play back get the latest flash player" but after downloading the file and during installation would have errors and will not installed.....tried to reboot and install again.....but still the same.
    The othe thing I had noticed is when using a good Bose headset with mic the sound output would noticed the headset and then switch from headset to Internal speekers and headset.....thinking that there might be something wrong with the plug in port of the computer or the headset.....the headset works with no issues on my iPad so there must be something wrong with the computer.....tried to move the plugin around the port but no change....while the headset is plug in can hear a short clicking noise and the sound would get lost and back again......but with nothing plugin to the port there is no issue with the sound or mic.
    Thanks for your feed back......it looks like I have two different issues one is a software issue and the outher is a hardware issue
    <Edited By Host>

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • Computer will NOT install flash...ready to throw it out the window

    Youtube and music from sites like projectplaylist have been buffering and not resuming at all recently. I thought that trying to uninstall flash and reinstall it would help. Well after I uninstalled, I can't get it to successfully install. I have tried it in firefox and IE (I use Firefox as my main one). I click save file and it brings up the box to install and installs and then when I go to youtube or any site that requires flash it acts like it's still uninstalled. I checked my programs and I only have adobe reader and adobe air listed. I checked the adobe site to see if it's downloaded and it's not. I download the plug in and it tells me it has failed. I have no clue what I have to do now. I'm not really familiar with computers enough to know what to do. I think I have tried to download it like 20 times now. If I go to downloads the "install flash player" icon does show up. I allow it to download and it acts like it did but then nothing. This is so frustrating! It's not the first time I have had trouble downloading this before. I've tried doing the ccleaner also. Any ideas? When I look up help on other sites it just keeps giving me the manual download page from adobe. That one hasn't been working. Thanks if you can help. I'm ready to call a computer repair shop lol
    btw I have a Dell Windows Vista if that helps.

    Hi, Your Flash files for FF are correct. However, check the Flash folder again and see if you missed one for IE. You should have FlashUtil101_ActiveX.exe. I didn't see it in the list you just posted.
    Also is the Shockwave Flash Object Installed and Enabled in the Manage addons?
    Let me know on that please.
    Thanks,

  • Upgrading but not installing Flash with MSI

    I have an environment of some 600 PCs running XP. A few have Flash installed, most do not. Those that have Flash installed are a variety of versions.
    It's my intent to perform a Flash install using MSI and GPO, and that's (mostly) tested and working.
    However, I don't want to install Flash anywhere it isn't already. The systems that do have Flash installed are effectively random across the organization, not matching up in any way to GPO.Doing that I want to use the MSI, so I can have it automatically install to the machine.
    Is there a way to install/upgrade Flash only on those systems that already have Flash installed, and not install it elsewhere?
    Thanks

    I don't know how to do that, although it sounds like a very good idea.
    Have you seen the new 10.1 Admin Guide if it contains any suggestions: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_admin_guide.html ?
    You will probably need to write some sort of script to test for a current FP installation before you proceed with the update.

  • Can not install Flash 10.1 via Active Directory GPO

    Greetings,
    Starting with the 10.0.45.2 update, we moved to install Flash via AD GPO using the instructions in the admin guide. We are doing zero custom configuration of Flash with this method, just setting up a Computer based GPO install linking to the downloaded and shared MSI installer from Adobe. For the install of 10.0.45.2, this ran with out a hitch. Setup the GPO ran it in a test OU and then on to production and all the pc's were updated just like it should work
    Trying to do the same thing with 10.1.53.64 flat out does not work execpt on a system you have manually uninstalled flash on first, then if you have the GPO load the 10.0.45.2 Flash, that works, then if you follow up with removing the GPO from the OU and adding a new 10.1.53.64 GPO to the OU, the pc will uninstall 10.0 and install 10.1 correctly as your would expect it to do. It will not do this on our deployed systems.
    On our deployed systems with the currently installed 10.0.45.2 will not uninstall cleanly when the new installer runs via GPO, nor will it uninstall cleanly if the install computer is moved out of GPO scope as it is configured to do. The GPO attempts to do so but the installer fails with 1603 errors.
    Does anyone have a workaround to cleanup the current installs so that 10.1 can be installed? We just don't have the time to hit 100+ desktops to update Flash.
    Miles

    Just to make sure: have you seen that there is a new Admin Guide for 10.1 at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_admin_guide.html ?
    One thing about the 10.1 installer is that it fails if any browsers are running; I don't know if this is also true when using GPO.

  • I can not install flash player activeX

    Hi, For some reason I had to uninstall Flash Player Plugin Istaller Active X and Flash Player. Although he has performed all procedures and automatic aid two days have passed and I can not install the Active X control As part of the 'install it I get a notification saying actual words (translated from Italian into English):
    The Adobe Flash Player ActiveX is not attempting to install the latest. Visit http://......................player_it to get the latest and most secure.
    This message appears just downloading from the site recommended and everything is really frustrating. My OS is VISTA64x Home Premium and the problem persists on both IE8 IE8 x64 x32.
    Also stress that I have not installed any ActiveX flash player so why do I feel that I try to install the version that is not especially since the most recent discharge from the link that that message would you recommend?
    I hope someone is able to say once and for all how to solve this problem.
    Sincerly Jinjetto

    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.

  • Please Help - Can Not Install Flash

    This is not about downloading or uninstalling,this is about getting flash installed.
    I have a Power Mac G4 with 10.5.8 I was trying to install the latest version of Flash Player and it did not work.
    I used uninstaller,then downloaded - install_flash_player_10_osx.dmg.- Everything went fine until the end. I got a - The following install step failed:run postflight script for plug in.
    Then I downloaded - flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg - opened it,right clicked on it and went to "Show Contents" then "Resources" and tried installing - Adobe Flash Player.pkg. I got a - You cannot install PlugIn on this volume. A newer version of this software already exists on this volume. Even though I used uninstall to get rid of all Flash beforehand.
    So now any website that need flash player I can not use.I have looked all over this web site for an answer.Please help me get flash player reinstalled,the lattest version if possible.

    Via Javascripting. Look for Flash detection kits at the
    Adobe/Maromedia web
    site and also at Internet search engines.
    As well this forum focuses on database access issues and you
    might find more
    takers for this type of question in the Flash General forum.

    Thanks Mike,
    I followed your instructions and I created a new administrator account in Windows7.

  • Why can I not install flash player or silverlight.

    I am using OS X Ver 10.8.2 on two seperate machines and was recently asked to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I downloaded it from the Adobe site and ran the install as they explained and it failed after approx 10%. I then used their uninstall progran and manually removed the files from the plug-in library and tried again and still got no further.
    At the same time I was also asked to update Silverlight to run Sky-go and without repeating myself, have had a similar problem with that. If it was only the Mac book Pro I could accept my mistake but this has also happened on my Mac mini server which is about 12 months old.
    Is there a problem with the latest OS X update? or can any one help with this.

    Historically:
    2008 (March) - Apple® released the first iPhone, using iOS®. Steve Jobs was insistent and adamant that iOS® was NOT compatible with Flash® and NEVER WILL BE. Jobs' reasoning was that playing Flash® content is processor consumptive and it drains batteries, thus shortening the life of them in mobile devices. In six years, that hasn't changed. Not for the iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® Touch™. It never will change and there never will be a Flash Player® for iOS®.

  • "Error initializing Java Runtime Environment. You may need to re-install Flash"

    Hi,
    I get this error starting up Flash Professional CS5. I don't even have to create/open a Flash file. I already re-installed, but to no avail. Any suggestions?
    TIA
    Steven

    Well this is a very old post but this error appear again in CS5.5, then I think is helpful retake this post
    In Flash CS5.5 the issue is solved editing the file:
    "c:\Users\current user\AppData\Local\Adobe\Flash CS5.5\en_US\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\jvm.ini"
    and lowering the Xmx128m to 128, some times this must be rised to compile large applications with a huge amount of AS3, or to use some Flex 4.5 libs from Flash Professional
    I hope this help to CS5.5 users.
