Installing multiple versions of Flash Player
I am running Windows 7 x64, and curently have Google Chrome running in addition to IE 8. Has anyone installed multiple versions of Flash Player to support both browsers...IE and Chrome?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, there are two Flash Player versions; one is the ActiveX for Internet Explorer, and the other one is the plugin for all other browsers, e.g. Firefox, Chrome, etc.
Just go to the FP download page with each browser type, then do the install. IE will install the ActiveX, the other browser will install the plugin. (Once you install the plugin, it will work for all non-IE browsers.)

How to install older versions of Flash Player(ActiveX) in Win 8?
Hello all,
How to install older version of Flash Player in Windows 8? and how to uninstall default Flash Player that come from IE10 in Windows 8?
Actually I want to install Adobe_Flash_Player_(IE)_v11.7.700.224.exe in Windows 8.
Is it possible to overcome this issue? If it is not, could you share me your information on this issue?
Thanks in advance.
RK.Thank you for reply..
Actually i uninstalled the existing version of Flash Player from my Windows 8 PC, but when i tried to install the older version, it was not allowing me to install and was showing that my browser is included with latest version.
Even i followed the below given websites, it didn't given any remedy for it.

http://www.itsecdb.com/oval/objectdetails/oval/org.mitre.oval/obj/7075/windows-registry_ob ject-Registry-that-holds-the-version-of-the-Adobe-Flash-Player-in/
So that my PC is restricting the older version installation from somewhere which holds the version information and that user cannot modify/delete that information. If i know that mystery i can install any version of Flash Player in my Windows 8.
I hope i will find this.
Thanks for your support. -

1. uninstalled Flash Player as outlined on http://forums.adobe.com/message/4041846
(How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?)
2. IE11 x64 and Firefox on my Windows 7 x64
3. downloaded/extracted fp_10.3.183.20_archive.zip and found below files suitable for installation
flashplayer10_3r183_20_win_sa.exe
flashplayer10_3r183_20_win.exe
flashplayer10_3r183_20_winax.exe
4. installed flashplayer10_3r183_20_win.exe, but for IE this was not suitable
5. installed flashplayer10_3r183_20_winax.exe but IE still asked for Flash Player to be installed
For some reason (long story) I need an old version suitable for FF and IE to be installed.
Q: how am I to proceed ??
i.e. what files no I need for these two browsers?
Thanks
==Hi,
The implementations of Flash Player in Chrome, Internet Explorer and Firefox (and even Firefox between WinXP and Win7) are all significantly different software.
In the face of the modern security threat landscape, one of the security-in-depth measures we've taken is an approach called sandboxing, which attempts to isolate the Flash Player processes that deal with untrusted content, and handles that content while operating with the least privileges possible. This way if a potential exploit does slip through our defenses and our process ends up under the control of malicious code, that code lacks the permission to do anything interesting. A more technical explanation of the approach can be found here: http://blogs.adobe.com/asset/2012/06/inside-flash-player-protected-mode-for-firefox.html
All of this additional processing and communication comes at a cost, and the sandboxing approaches in Chrome, IE and Firefox are significantly different. Modern Chrome and IE browsers impose sandboxing on plug-ins at an architectural level, while we've retrofitted a sandboxing approach to Firefox.
A retrofitted approach is necessarily less efficient, and you're seeing a bottleneck there as we pass each downloaded packet through multiple processes in order to achieve the necessary level of isolation. We've already tuned this significantly. I think you would see a performance jump in Firefox if you went back to Flash Player 10, because you would have a version that pre-dates protected mode.
Long story short, diagnosing network problems using Flash is probably not the best approach.
The bandwidth measurement tool is downloading data through Flash because it makes it easy to write a pretty user interface. This is probably not representative of most of the things you're downloading, aside from streaming video.
The version of Flash installed isn't going to affect a typical file download in the browser, or your BitTorrent throughput.
Having one sample for each browser isn't enough to draw any meaningful conclusions. There are too many possible factors that could affect throughput to allow you to use a small sample. This data is going to be very noisy. At minimum, you'd want dozens of samples at various time periods for each target.
There are excellent, purpose-built network diagnostic tools available for conducting a meaningful analysis.
With respect to the confusion about what asset to install:
Our archived versions are intended for use by Flash developers with an understanding of the technology. All of these versions have known security vulnerabilities, and we absolutely do not recommend them for general web browsing. You should always run the current version of Flash Player.
Internet Explorer uses ActiveX controls for plug-ins. Most other browsers use the Netscape Plug-In API (NPAPI Plug-In). Chrome and Chromium-based browsers use a more modern PPAPI (Pepper Plug-in API Architecture).
So for Internet Explorer, you want the flashplayer10_3r183_20_winax.exe (win = Windows, ax = ActiveX) installer.
When a website presents you with an "Install Flash" message, that message is generated by JavaScript on the page. Sometimes that JavaScript makes bad assumptions (like Internet Explorer or Flash versions will be single-digits) or they require a minimum version of Flash because they're dependent on Features in those versions, or want to encourage you to be secure.
Hope that helps! -
just downloaded captivate 4 when trying to open I get a message saying that I need to install the latest version of flash player...which I already had I have uninstalled and reinstalled I have also made sure that it is enabled and working any ideas?
You need to downgrade Flash player, not to upgrade. CP4 is over 5 years old, will not be happy with the latest Flash players.

Problems installing debugger version of flash player
I tried to install the debugger version of flash player on a Windows 7 64 bit machine using Firefox as my browser, but got the following installation error:"The version of Adove Flashplayer that you are trying to install is not the most current version. Please visit the Player Download Center to obtain the latest, most secure version." Of course I did this several times and restarted my computer.
Originally, I used the 64 bit variant of Firefox (Waterfox) as my default browser, but because the debugger is 32 bit only, I switched to Firefox (32 bit). However, this did not help. Any ideas?

How to avoid installing newer version of flash player
Hey,
After installing the newer version of flash player it caused troubles to me, and I don't see any way but to install an older version of Flash Player, however after I have installed it the game forces me to Install the newest version of Flash Player, otherwise it cannot run. So here is my question. How can I use an older version of Flash Player I had before without installing the newer version of it?
- DanHi, You can go to this test site to see if you have Flash Player Installed on your 10.6.5 Mac.
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Then this link has info on how to Uninstall Flash Player (if needed) and Install the latest version. It is a step by step.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html
After reading that info and you just need to Install, then this link would be easier:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Flash Player is a browser plugin and as long as your browser is supported by Adobe Flash Player, then you shouldn't have any problem.
Hope that helps,

Can't install debug version of flash player
I have the Design Premium CS5 suite installed on the laptop I am using, which I have rented from my uni as my own was unstable.
I have got admin rights, and I installed Flash Builder 4.
When I tried to debug code, I got the following error [IMG]http://i52.tinypic.com/hu3w3r.png[/IMG].
So I followed the link on the error message and downloaded from [url]http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html[/url]. I downloaded the Windows Flash Player 10.3 ActiveX control content debugger (for IE) (EXE, 3.22MB)
Even after running it, the debug won't work and I can't view the image the sample code is supposed to display. Is there a better version?
I'm running a laptop with Vista. I saw someone had success with installing safari and chrome during my searches for a solution. I usually run firefox. I have installed both safari and chrome, but don't see how this can help me yet.
I found the following solution on this site: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/831/cpsid_83106.html, but I can't find the INSTALL_DIRECTORY on this laptop. The CS5 is installed as follows: [IMG]http://i52.tinypic.com/1zcl1g2.jpg[/IMG]. If I right click on Flash, I can't see how to select a player or to even see which player it is set for.
I also found a page on this site which checks what version of flash you have, and I have 10,3,181,34 with no debug. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a debug version with no success.
I am new to developing as it is for a project. I'm creating an Augmented Reality app to display on my website, with a downloadable marker. Is there a way to continue with developing but not using the debug function?
If you can help I'd be very grateful.Install the Windows Flash Player 10.3 Plugin content debugger and see if that helps.
You can proceed without debug by just double clicking the html file in bin-debug.

How to install old version of Flash Player ActiveX
Hello,
I have to install Flash Player ActiveX 10.1.x or 10.3.x because it is required by my application. 11.x version I tried made issues.
I downloaded various 10.x versions : they all told me that this version is not the newest => I can only quit the installation.
How can I avoid that message ?
What does Adobe care which version I want to install because I have to ?????
Thank you for your help !Please run the appropriate uninstaller linked below. That should allow you to run older installers without receiving that error.
