Installation won't "take"

I am a basic user of macbook air (formerly my daughter's.) I want to view videos e.g. sent on Facebook, but every time, the video won't play because I 'need to install the latest version of Flash Player." I have installed it a number of times now, including through the Adobe website, and evertime the installation proceeds smoothly but when I try to view the video, I'm told that 'I need to install the latest version. . . " I did make sure I'm using the version appropriate for Mac OS X 10.6.8. (And I have been viewed videos very successfully on other computers. It's just this one that's the problem. )
If you tell me anything beyong the most basic of button pushing commands to make this work, I won't understand, I'm sorry.
Many thanks!

Thanks! I did try, and it didn't work, alas. There were two glitches; there's something called uTorrent that doesn't want to get out of the way, and I use Firefox, not Safari, so the last bit of the direction didn't apply and I didn't do them. Thoughts?
Thanks,
Melissa

Adobe cs 5.5 installer won't take my password adobe

I just updated the PC to a new version of windows and reformatted. I did uninstall adobe first (or whatever you call it). But now it doesn't want to re register, it won't accept the password even though it works on the website. I have NO intention of upgrading since I don't use the PC enough to be worth it. How do I reregister it?

there's no password needed to install adobe cs 5.5 programs on a windows computer. during installation you should be prompted for your serial number, but nothing else is required to install and activate.

Can't run videos on Safari, only on Foxfire. On Safairi I get a message that Adobe Flash is out of date, but I can't update-it won't take ID or PW.

I can't run videos using my Safari browser, only on Foxfire. On Safari when I try to run a video, I get a message that says my Adobe flash player is out of date and to download new adobe flash. However, when I try to run the Adobe Flash player installer, it won't take my Apple ID and PW. I tried creating an Adobe PW and ID, but that doesn't work either. Any suggestions? Thank you.

it should require the name & password for an admin account on your computer - not an 'apple id' or adobe one...
where are you downloading Flash from - here ?
What does Safari say in Help - Installed Plug-Ins for the Flash version ?

Photoshop won't take my serial number

Photoshop won't take my serial number

Are you the original installation media, mak sure you are using the correct setup file for photoshop elements 10.
On the titile bar of installation window you can check the product name and version.
If it is correct, I would suggest you to Adobe support and confirm it the serial number which you are using is for photoshop elements 10.

Elements 10 installer won't accept serial #

Tried 5 times to installPhotoshop Elements 10, installer won't accept serial number on the box purchased from Staples. Yes, I have regestered the product with Adobe (today), as a last straw because there is no instruction in the manuel to do so. I have waited 30 minutes for the registration to post. Still unable to continue with the install.

I read all of those. I have a PC, Windows 7. Today I phoned support, got someone who advised a download from the net, THEN use the serial #...still waiting for it to download, could take 45 minutes, he said. He also said to use the right-hand keyboard, with no hyphens. Instructions on the ReadMe disc say NOT to use the keyboard. Which is correct?
Thanks.

How do I install the FM10 licensing fix when Adobe Update Installer won't run?

Adobe Update Installer won't run so can't install FM10 licensing fix
This question is Not Answered.(Mark as assumed answered)

Tags (edit): none (add)
Because FM10 began crashing with "fatal" errors whenever I tried to generate a TOC for a small (65 page) book, I researched workarounds and none of them worked. Now that I have delivered a crippled deliverable via Acrobat manipulations, I would like to fix FM. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, got some updates, and then received the "licensing fix" error that popped up in January. I'm wondering why this fix was included not in the updates. That said, the licensing fix package, first, would not unzip so I downloaded it again. I unzipped it but I got a message that Adobe Updater Installer could not run and after several clicks I found that file. I reinstalled Adoble Update Installer but it still does not run.
I am running Windows XP and have TCS 3.5.I uninstalled FM and RH but not Acrobat, Captivate, or Photoshop.
So, now what? Listen to my supervisor who says never use FM again?
P.S. Why do I have to enter a title for my question and then do it again when this page opens??

Give Adobe Support a call or contact the TCS team at [email protected] - something in your environment is causing the installer to fail (I'd guess).

My iPhone 4 won't take incoming calls. Everytime someone phones me it goes straight to voice mail. What's gone wrong?

For some reason my iPhone 4 won't take incoming calls and everytime someone phones me it goes straight to voicemail what's gone wrong??

Look at the AT&T VVM User Guide for help setting up your visual voice mail.
If you still have problems, contact AT&T Customer Service at 1-800-331-0500 and ask them to check that your account is provisioned for an iPhone 4.

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.

You can probably change the ID in the "iTunes and App stores" settings on the iPad....click on the wrong account ID , select sign out, then log in with your own ID, I have not done this but I think it works.....
but I would be more inclined to to the factory reset and start afresh.

After I search using Google in Firefox, and hit the back arrow button to return to the main homepage I use, the browser won't take me there. Instead, I'm left at the initial results page from my search.

Assume I start at Google as my homepage. I search for Federal Reserve. Google then brings up a number of selections for Federal Reserve. I can scroll through to more search results on page 2, 3, 4, etc. Now suppose I want to use the back arrow button to go back to Google as my homepage. I’ve found what I was looking for. When I try to get back to Google, the furthest back I can go is to page 1 of the search results. The browser won’t take me back to the original starting page which was Google. Also, it doesn’t matter what the starting page or initial page was. The browser will only take me back to the initial page after the original homepage. By the way, I did not install any new software or applications prior to this problem occurring. My guess is that it may have something to do with the function keys at the top of the keyboard. But I can’t figure out what the problem is with the function keys. It’s only a guess.

using Google toolbar for searches?? disable instant search (click the wrench to the right of the tool bar, untick enable instant, and hit save. worked for me

Bought an ipod 4g at a pawn shop, it was locked and disabled but the guy said I could restore it, it didn't work and he won't take back the ipod what do i do?

I bought an ipod 4g at a pawn shop, it was locked and disabled but the guy said I could restore it by connecting it to my computer and pressing the home and sleep buttons at the same time, it didn't work and he won't take back the ipod what do i do?
When I try connecting it to my computer itunes opens and says I cannot connect to the ipod because it is disabled, enter passcode on ipod. The ipod is locked and disabled and will not allow me to try and put in a passcode, which I wouldn't be able to do because I have no idea what it might have been.
I downloaded the newest version of Itunes, restarted computer, connected ipod, nothing, held every button down for what seems like forever, nothing. I think I have been screwed by the pawnshop. Is there anyway of restoring this thing or is now just a $60.00 paperweight?

torreto44. that does not work with a Disabled iPod. Jim's gave the correct answer for a Disabled iPod

Sprint Won't Take My Money

They won't take it! I'll be headed to purchase an iPhone tomorrow, not because it's the phone I want, but because it's the only phone I can get.
Here's the situation:
I'm a young guy, and I've been using a phone on my parents family plan for years. It was time to sign up for a plan of my own and I figured why not grab the amazing Palm Pre at the same time? So I went to a Sprint store, filled out the paperwork, and everything seemed fine. Then I told them I wanted to use the phone number on my parents plan. They informed me that I would never get a Palm Pre with that phone number for the discounted price until my parents contract expired.
This wasn't an attempt to "upgrade early." My parents signed a contract for 2 lines, a received 1 free phone for doing so. They would keep these lines active and honor that contract in full. I wasn't trying to "split" off one line into a new account before the contract expired and still qualify for the Palm Pre for $200. I just wanted my old number on my new line and the people that currently had the number, my parents, had no problem with this.
I begged and pleaded with Sprint to let me own your phone. They agree that I qualify for the discount and were ready to give it to me. I passed their credit check. I had authorization from the account holder, standing right beside me, to give me that phone number. They just wouldn't do it.
The only way they'll let me have both the phone and the number is if my Parents cancel their contract early. Or, if I pay the full price of the phone. They would rather lose me as a customer for life and 2 other 10-year customers along with me, rather than change a phone number.
This is a company you have partenered with to make money literally refusing to sell your phone to me. I can't believe that this was the intent of your arrangement with Sprint.
I hope someone considers experiences like mine when you decide whether to open up the phone to other carriers.
Unfortunately, I'll be stuck on th front end of an AT&T contract with a new iPhone in my pocket by the time that comes to pass :/
Sorry Palm, I tried!
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I've read that Sprint has some customer support specialists whose job it is to retain good customers, and they can "fix" situations that appear hopeless in the store. I don't remember reading how you reach the retentions department, but you Google around, you might find the answer to that. Whatever you decide, enjoy the experience of getting your own bill.
