Is it possible to get flash or shockwave installed in browser w/out DLM

WHY oh WHY must I install a bleeping download manager to download a file who's size is measure in Kb, a file that needs to be downloaded only ONCE IN A BLUE MOON?
I don't want your crap sofware(download manager) running on my system all the time, or any time for that matter.
My computer has more than enough software applications that have the capability of downloading files from the net, I DON'T NEED ANOTHER ONE!!!
"...it can prevent you from having to start from the beginning should your download process be interrupted.
Um, is this REALLY a problem with the tiny files? Has ANYONE EVER had this 20 second download interrupted? Uh... and even if it was do you REALLY need to resume it vs just starting over, hell I would start over even if I had the ability to resume just to ensure file integrity.
"...and it offers a level of service not possible with third-party download tools."
REALLY? IE and FF will be interested in hearing how you have come up with a level of service in downloading Kb size files that they find IMPOSSIBLE to deliver!
I am fed up with you companies that:
1) think everyone needs more useless services running all the time on their PC's
2) think every damn file needs it's own special proprietary download agent to retrieve it
3) think everyone is stupid enough to just keep swallowing your bull
Adobe products will not be allowed on my computers until they can:
1) be downloaded via the built-in capabilities of my browser or ftp client
2) run ONLY necessary processes
3) only run those processes when needed ( I don't need a freaking process running all the time so the occasional PDF I open opens 1/2 a second quicker)
Adobe... knock it off!

The download links without DLM are published in this forum on an almost daily basis:

FP for FF: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe

I cannot get Flash Player to install - WIN 7 - Firefox

Help! I cannot get Flash Player to install. For some reason when I updated it has gone away.

Make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is enabled in Firefox.

How can I get Flash Player and install it?

TO: Adobe Forum
I am running Windows XP Home, and using Mozilla Firefox 3.6.8 as my browser.
When I go to download and install the latest version of Flash Player, the ONLY option I get is to quit. In other words, I cannot download and install Flash Player. This even occurs at Adobe's own website.
How can I get Flash Player and install it?
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,

First, you can manually download the installer here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
Second. On both my Mac (OS 10.6.4) and My PC (Vista Home Premium) I have had nothing but trouble with Firefox 3.6.8 and Flash player, Flash apps and Flash sites that require access to web cam or microphone or both.
The last time Flash Player worked well with Firefox was 3.6.4, but I uninstalled 3.6.8 and went all the way back to 3.0 on both systems.
Just a heads up. If you download the manual installer, and it still doesn't work, it ISN'T the Flash Player. It's Firefox. IE, Opera and Safari all work with it.
Go to oldversion.com and get an older build of Firefox, uninstall 3.6.8, install the older one, go to Tools, and Options and turn off automatic checking for updates, so it doesn't try to take you back the the 3.6.8 "busted @$$ joint" that doesn't work worth poo.
Maybe when they release 3.7, Firefox will have their act together with Adobe and Flash Player.

Is there a way to get Flash to work in a browser while offline?

In order to work offline I'm using XAMPP to develop a website which is working great except that I can't see any Flash content. External Flash players have no problem working offline but obviously won't load anything but SWFs and FLVs.
Is there a way to get Flash to work in a browser while offline?

You can open a swf file in a browser offline, either as a standalone file or as part of a web page. If the file is dependent on loading online content in some way, or needs to interact with a server-side script, then it may not get very far.

I cannot get Flash Player to install on my Mac

I cannot get Flash Player to install on my Mac Air. I have repeatedly confirmed that I meet the system requirements and installed and uninstalled the software. It always fails at 51% installation and give me and alert that says Install Error. Please help!
MAC OS 10.8.5
Safari 6.1
Firefox 26.0
Just performed the update to FP12 on my iMac. Worked perfectly.
MAC OS 10.6.8
Safari 5.1.10
Firefox 26.0
It appears the problem is with the newer OS...

"Allllllllrighty then!" as "Ace Ventura" said....
The problem ISN'T with Flash Player...
If you remember back in September, when Apple released the 10.8.5 update, shortly thereafter... you no doubt discovered a file named "mach_kernel" was in your Mac HD directory. And... unaware of what it was, you deleted it.
That (mach_kernel) is a base file of OS X and Apple screwed up the update and made it "visible" when it's supposed to be hidden.
Hundreds of thousands of unsuspecting Mac Users worldwide deleted it and it'll make things worse as time goes by.
YOU'RE in luck, though. I have a fix.
If you have a TIme Machine and use the "Secrets" pereference pane to reveal "hidden files", you can restore it from a "pre 10.8.5" backup.
If not, I have a "fresh" mach_kernel file you can download.
You'll need to download and install the Secrets prefpane. It'll then be in your System Preferences.
Make sure you have it set to "show hidden files"
Check the box and you have to restart Finder
Press "Quit This" and then go to the Finder Dock icon and right click it
Select "Open"
Open your TIme Machine
Go back to September 28 or earlier.
You'll see the mach_kernel file in the Mac HD directory
(I can't show it in the TM because screenshots don't work while it's open but here it is in my MAc HD)
Right click it and select "Restore to"
Then, when it goes back to Finder, choose the Mac HD directory and click OK.
It will place the mach_kernel back where it was and you can install software again
DON'T FORGET to go back and hide your files (and restart Finder) again, or you'll have a mess with the clutter of hidden files everywhere.
IF you don't have the Time Machine...
WITH hidden files shown, download this file (mach_kernel.zip)
Move it to your Mac HD directory and THEN unzip it with Stuffit Expander or TheUnarchiver, whichever you use (most people have Stuffit).
You should see the mach_kernel file there.
You can delete the zip file, and then go back to Secrets in your System Preferences, and uncheck Show Hidden Files.
Restart Finder and it'll be safely hidden again.
THEN you can install Flash Player and other software without the "General Installation Error".

Help, I can not get Flash Plyer to install.

I have been working on this for 7 hours and can not get Flash Player to work.
I have IE 9.0.8112.16421, Windows Vista, Disabled McAfee Virus and Firewall and run as administrator.
Uninstalled Flash Player ( it did show up on my installed programs but when I checked with Adobe FP checker it did not show as installed.) I keep getting a notice that says I need to install the latest Flash Player. Tried to update IE to IE 9.0 enhanced but I get the notice to install FP.
I Shut down and reboot with all programs closed everywhere including tool bar.
Started FP installer from desktop as administrator and went through Download manager and then install FP 10. I get message that says the installation is complete. I Quit and reboot. But FP is not working.
Checked internet tools -- security on Medium and internet on Medium.
Is there a problem with Flash Player 10 and IE 9.0?
Can anyone help?

That doesn't make sense; if you have saved the installer to your desktop, then then the DLM does not come into play.
A few questions:
what is your Windows version, and is it 32-bit or 64-bit?
what files do you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash (32-bit) or C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash (64-bit)?
on IE, Tools, Add-ons, do you have Shockwave Flash Object, and is it enabled?
can you see the Flash animation (rotating red 'F') at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?

Many sites require Adobe Flash 11.1, but emac doesn't support any version beyond 10.3. What do I do to get Flash 11.1 installed?

Many web sites now require Adobe Flash 11.1. When I try to install it, nothing happens. Apple says Tiger and Leopard support only Adobe 10.3. What am I supposed to do to get Adobe 11.1 installed?

How d I get flash drive and install it.

Getting flash drive?

"Flash drive" is a piece of hardware
Flash Player can be downloaded directly by clicking one of the following links.
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Flash Player for Mac OS X
Double click the installer and follow the instructions.

Mac OS 10.6 Safari 4.0.3. Cannot get Flash Player to install.

Did an archive and reinstall of the OS, then went to download center and downloaded Flash Player (again), but when I try to open a video, continue to get the message that I need to download the latest Flash Player. Called Applecare and they got me this far, don't want to PAY Adobe to figure out how to use a free program that apparently I have no choice in using. Cannot view any video.

The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
You should also ensure that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2009-001 (and for Tiger only, 2009-002). (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)

How do I get Flash Player update installed?

When trying to install an update to Flash Player update it tells me it can not install with Mozilla Fire Fox. Also, tells me I have it already but I do not. Also, tells me to uninstall Exlorer, Fire Fox and Adobe before installing. Can you please just tell the 1 -2- 3 of installation of Adobe Flash Player.

I did that a bunch of times. I also deleted it rebooted and installed flash and it still won't work. Some sites I have flash but most don't. I think I would like to go back to the older version. But this problem is only on this M11X with winblows 7 ult. 64. On my other system I have the same but it's only 32b and it works. So how do I get this to work on a 64 system? And if I can't................ Where do I go to go back to the other version?

I can't get Flash Player to install

I'm using Windows 7 (64 bit) and I'm running IE9 and Opera for my browser. I cannot use anything that requires flash player, as it says I need to update mine. When I go to download the new one, it simply refreshes my page with no further instructions, and does not start the download. Occassionally, I can get the download procedure to begin, but I can never get anything to happen after the "Run" step. It simply stops with no notice whatsoever, and no download ensues.
NOTE: I'm also having the exact same problem with Adoe Reader.

Try using the 64-bit installers from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
Download the Adobe Reader installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/direct/ (this link has been working in the past, but I am getting a "currently unavailable" message).
Alternate download for the full installer: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/ (navigate to the version you want to download).
Update: the Adobe Reader direct download link above is working now.

How to get flash player to install correctly

Hi Guys,
my name is Patryk and I need help installing adobe flash player on my computer:
So i download it and when i click on it it pops up with a screen that looks like its the background for the installer window, but I don't see any text, nor installation buttons. I tried to reinstall all of my browsers, Firefox, Chrome, and Internet Explorer, but with no success.
I have Windows 7 64 bit installed on my Optiplex 755 computer. It seems like the installer is broken some how or another.

Thank you all for the replies; I'm quite surprised that this post generated this many replies, thank you all so much!
My problems started when IE tried to update to FP 14.
I did get my issue fixed; I used the Flash Player Uninstaller (found here: http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/support/uninstall_flash_player.exe), then restarted my computer.
I went to the Flash Player Archives page (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html), and downloaded the ZIP file under "Release and Content Debugger archives" of the last known good-working version (for me it was 13.0.0.214, released 5/13/2014).
This ZIP file contains 2 different versions for IE, Firefox, and Mac; one folder contains the normal versions, which didn't work for me....I kept getting the same error messages and had to keep using the Uninstaller, then restart computer, etc...
BUT, in the "Debug" folder, with the debug versions of FP, I first installed the IE version (typically named "flash_player_ax_debug.exe" or something similar with the ax designator), this installed just fine and now everything works again! I then updated Firefox with the other debug version, and everything works fine again.
I don't know if this will work for any other problems, but it worked great for me after having similar issues as the OP. Hope this helps.

Cannot get flash player to install?

I have Windows 7 home premium, my flash player was working but quit then I got messages on some pages saying I needed to intall the latest version of flash player but when I try I then get a litte box that says when all program are closed then the flash player will automatically install. But I closed all the programs and nothing happens as a matter of fact internect explorer still shows up in the little black box as running. I closed everything out so I don't know what else to do and I need my flash player, can someone please help me?
Thank you!!!

Thank you, as i said in my first post I had everything closed, nothing was open. Apparantly there was a problem with flash, i tried it again later and it worked so it is installed and working.

After 10 attempts I still cant get flash player to install, I've uninstalled it each time,but still get the same message, that i need ot exit programms that are not running. explorer is ok.

Hi there after firefox updated flash player stopped working so I was asked to update that too, I have tried both the direct x and plugin types and have installed and uninstalled it 10 times the same message comes up, halfway through the install process, that I must exit programmes that are using flash player, which since I have supposedly uninstalled it seems nonsensical, internet explorer seems unaffected, except when I uninstall flash player. I have followed all the instructions that appear on screen

You have Shockwave Flash 10.2 r152 installed in the browser that you used to post here. Best to uninstall that version before installing a later version.
As far as that message, Firefox needs to be closed before starting to install the Plugin version of Flash, so that Adobe can install the plugin for Firefox.

Is it possible to get flash or shockwave installed in browser w/out DLM
