Lack of weekly auto-update prevents installation of Flash 11.7

Previously every Monday, I would get a prompt to update Flash Player on start-up. Click okay, it would remind me that I'm doing this manually, then it would automatically update the version. Done in five minutes.
For 2 weeks I've come in, and the Download button not only opens a browser(!) but asks for the re-download procedure on http://get2.adobe.com/flashplayer/  -- which I have in the past reported to be inoperable for me. The downloaded exe will fail to initialize no matter if all my anti-virus and firewalls are down. Which is dangerous in the first place. You can read all my other discussions on the matter. I do have administrative access, I have been through the checklist scores of times. Let me reiterate: there is no other way to download a new version of Flash other than to use the automatic update. There were no issues with the automatic update in the past. If you're pushing security updates on us, eliminating the auto-update is not ideal. Windows XP, latest Firefox.

I do not quite understand this; can you elaborate?

  • Start Menu Not Auto Updating After Installation of New Applications

    // Also reported via Windows Feedback Tool //
    After the installation of several applications, the new Start Menu does not necessarily automatically update to reflect the added programs. 
    The application’s folder is properly installed under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs, but it will not show under the Start Menu until the user logs out and logs in.
    Interestingly enough, this behavior is not consistent.  Some applications installations are immediately reflected while others are not.
    In this particular example, LibreOffice 4.3 was installed.

  • How to enable auto update by Installation parameter

  • Auto Update of 64 Bit Flash 11 on Vista Turns Zombie

    Early this morning there was an update of Flash 11 on my Vista Home Premium system.  In this case, it was Flash 11, 64-Bit Plugin.  Everything went fine and it completed successfully.  However, Flash has disappeared from my system - kind of.  It's there and it's not there too.
    The graphic below shows that my system thinks Flash 11 is installed.  However, nothing can find it including a file/directory search and my browser, which is Firefox in my case.  Note that the file size of the plugin install and the Flash 11 player updated a few days ago are now both zero.  The Flash help center can't find it either and thinks it's not installed on my system at all.
    Anyone else having a similar problem?  All components of Flash 11 were working last night before the update.
    Cheers,
    Lonnie

    The answer to the first question is that the Abobe help site does not see anything installed for Flash.  That is, the box is empty as if you have noting installed.
    Here are the visual answers to the System32 and SysWOW64 questions:
    Obviously, they are not empty, but noting in the OS or the Adobe help site sees the content here.
    Thanks for responding.

  • Flash player silent auto update not working

    I was glad to read the news about the new feature of silent auto updates of the Adobe Flash player, but unfortunately this is not working on my machine. Has anyone had the same problems and was able to solve them?
    Some information on my setup:
    I had previously installed Flash player version 11.1.102.63, both ActiveX and Plugin version (installed through the .msi files, deployed via Active Directory/GPO - no further configuration, just plain original .msi files).
    To test the auto update feature, I decided to install the new 11.2.202.228 version, but only the ActiveX version. I installed this via the .exe installer (install_flash_player_11_active_x_32bit.exe) manually, choosing "Install updates automatically when available (recommended)" in the last step of the installation, as seen here:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/background-updater-windows.html
    When I open Control Panel -> Flash Player, under the "Advanced" tab I see:
    "Install updates automatically" is chosen, but greyed out (no admin rights with this windows user)
    ActiveX version: 11.2.202.228
    Plug-In version: 11.1.102.63
    The file "mms.cfg" under C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\ contains:
    AutoUpdateDisable=0
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
    The task "Adobe Flash Player Updater" was created and is scheduled to run every 1 hour. I can see that it is started ("last start time"), the result code is 0x0 which means "no error".
    So everything as expected. But the auto update is not working, since the plugin version of flash player never gets updated!
    I edited the "mms.cfg" and added:
    SilentAutoUpdateVerboseLogging=1
    After manually starting the task, there are some lines added to "FlashInstall.log" in the same directory:

    What does this mean?
    Some more information:
    Windows XP SP3, all windows updates installed, german
    Avira Professional Security anti-virus software
    Machine is behind a proxy server, but this is set up in Control Panel -> Internet Options
    I suppose this is a problem with our proxy server. Does the auto updater not use the proxy information from the Windows Control Panel settings?
    Kind Regards,

    Hey Hans,
    After reading of your sucsess I attempted to replicate it.
    I am happy to say that I managed to update from Adobe Flash 11.2.202.228 to 11.2.202.233 on serveral different windows 7 notebooks and desktops sliently.
    I went into the windows task scedular and ran the Adobe Flash Player Updater task (I didn't need to change anything in the task or the service for it to work).
    The only issue I found was that if I ran the task again without restarting the computer no requests from the client would show up in the logs from my web server but if I restarted my computer and then reran the task it would work again. I'm assuming that it will only sent requests out every 24hours is talked about in page 18 of the Flash Player 11.2 Administration Guide. 
    My Web Servers logs look like this:
    2012-04-27 05:45:01 W3SVC1967680676 10.135.12.38 GET /pub/flashplayer/update/current/sau/11/xml/version.xml - 443 - 10.135.13.17 Get+Flash+Player+version+xml/1.0 200 0 0

    My mms.cfg looks like this:
    AutoUpdateDisable=0
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
    SilentAutoUpdateServerDomain=proxy.tallangatta-sc.vic.edu.au
    I think the biggest issue I had during testing was that I forgot to my web servers certificate into the windows certificate stores trusts root certs of my notebooks/desktops. EG: http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2012/04/rights-management-how-to-get-windows-7-to-trust-a -self-signed-server-certificate.html
    I have since deployed the mms.cfg file and added my web servers certificate into the trusted root certs via group policy to all my clients and it is working very well. I have also writen a batch file to download the needed files from adobe for that backgroup updater and to put them on my web server. I created a daily task on my web server to run the batch file. If anyone wants the batch file or shell script please email me and I'll forward it on.
    My batch file pretty much looks like this:

  • How do I prevent auto-updating of ATV software?

    My problem is that I have HughesNet, which has a fair usage limit. Unless either I, or Apple, can schedule ATV updates to a 2:00 - 5:59 a.m. window, the updates kick us into slower than dial up for 24 hours.
    I'm running 2.3 right now with my ATV wanting to install an update...probably the one that kicked us into fair access penalty the day before yesterday. I can see no option in the menu to manually control auto-updating. I understand there used to be one, but I can't find it.
    So far my only option is to kill the power to ATV. But that's not going to prevent updates while it's running.
    Any ideas?

    I just got off the phone with Apple tech support. He said that there is no auto-update, but we made sure that ATV wasn't somehow using any auto-update permissions in either Software Update or iTunes.
    Here's what I noticed. When I would turn my ATV back on by restoring the power and go to General, the Update Software line had the spinner going. When I would click on that I was given the choice to continue the update or to do it later. I chose 'later'. Going back to Update Software showed no spinner.
    However, it looked like every time I changed what the ATV was doing and then checked General, Update Software had gone back into the spinning mode. If the Apple tech rep is correct, that spinner wasn't indicating that a download was in progress, just that one was available. I'm not sure I believe that, since something went after 260 meg plus of download the other day when all of the Macs here were asleep and the only functioning machine was ATV. That's what helped in a big way to trigger the fair usage idiocy of HughesNet.
    This morning at 3:30 a.m. I got up and triggered the update. 360+ Meg later it was ready to install when I woke back up.
    Today, now running under then latest upgrade, the Update Software line has no spinner.
    Whether the problem has been solved is unclear. But I have decommissioned any auto-upgrade capabilities on Software Update and iTunes. We'll see when Apple launches the next ATV software upgrade.
    Props, however, to Apple's tech call availability. It's down toward the left corner of Apples's home support page.

  • Installation issues with JRE, Auto Update, win 2008 and terminal services

    Hello,
    We have seven Windows 2008 servers running Terminal Services in one TS farm. I have approximately 600 users accessing these servers. We have a need for the Java JRE. The JRE is to be installed on each of the seven servers since the user has no input into which server they log on to (round robin / load balancing)
    There are several issues that have occurred with this installation. I install the JRE on each of the servers when there is no one logged on. I turn off both of the update features while installing as administrator. When the users log on, however they are at some point prompted for an admin password to update Java. The users have no need to update java as all updates will be performed by the system admin. Additionally, when the user runs any app that uses the Java plug-in, they get a folder put on their desktop labeled Sun.
    Are there special instructions for installing Java when using Terminal Services and Windows 2008? As you can well see, 600 calls to the help desk asking about this update popup is not productive and accessing 600 users accounts and turning off the auto update on an individual basis is not practical. The user cannot disable this update anyway. They options are grayed out at the user level.
    If this is not the proper forum to ask these question, please forward this message to the proper department or let me know who I should/could contact to resolve these issues.
    Best regards,
    Bob

    I mean to only explain 1 enviornment. We have a windows 2008 terminal server. It has JRE 1.6.0_07 (32bit) install on it. The users use this server for Office Apps and to Access our software which is web based and requires a JRE to be able to work.
    When the users login the terminal server picks up there local timezone from the machine they are logging in from and apply's it to there terminal server session. The problem is when the jre is launched it is picking up the server timezone, not the timezone from the users session(which is different).
    Does this clarify it?Nope.
    Either the user is running the jre or the server is. Or maybe both. Seems like all of those are possible from your explanation.
    It doesn't matter what the jre is running. What matters is who runs the jre.
    Best I can suppose your situation is as follows.
    - The server, not a user, is running a jre with one or more applications.
    - The users use something, probably a browser, to access that server app (it doesn't even matter that it is java in terms of what the users are doing.)
    If and only if that is your situation then you MUST pass information from the browser session to the server (java or anything else for that matter) and you MUST use that information in the server code to display time information.

  • Firefox 13 linux checks for updates and says it is up to date even though my other systems have auto-updated a week or two ago.

    My firefox auto-updated to 10.0, 10.0.1, 11, and 12. but would not auto-update to 13.0 so I manually downloaded and updated. now that 14 is out it still won't auto-update. by which I mean when I go to HELP, ABOUT, it says it is fire fox 13.0, says it's checking for updates (very very briefly) then says "firefox is up to date". several other systems have auto-updated from 13 to 14, a couple of weeks ago but this one refuses. what's wrong here?

    You will be slightly behind if you use Linux and their own version of Firefox instead of the Mozilla standard version. (Not of course standard in some Linux distros)
    I use Ubuntu, and their Canonical Firefox Aurora just updated I think yesterday from fx15 to fx16. <br/>{''Mozilla/5.0 (X11;''' Ubuntu'''; Linux x86_64; rv:16.0) Gecko/16.0 Firefox/16.0'' ]
    I also have the Mozilla Firefox Release 64bit and that updated as expected a while ago from fx13 to fx14.<br/> {''Mozilla/5.0 (X11; '''Linux''' x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1'']
    Not sure why fx13 is not updating for you.
    Maybe something to do with your distro IF it is their version. IIRC some early Ubuntu LTS versions probably did not update Firefox. But you may have the Mozilla version as your system info aside shows <br/>''User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; '''Linux '''i686; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0''
    You could just download the latest version from
    * http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Just take care not to delete the existing firefox profile, preferably back it up first just in case.

  • How to disable auto update for corporate installation

    I've scoured the forums for this information and was not successful locating a viable answer.
    We need to update 1500 corporate clients to the latest version of QT, but we need the auto update feature turned off when the upgrade is complete. We do this for two reasons: 1) Users do not have permissions to run the installer, so even if they wanted to run the update they would be unsuccessful, and 2) we need to test any updates before they are distributed to the general population.
    For past versions we created a QTP file with the auto update turned off, then placed it into the C:\documents and settings\all users\application date\apple computer\quicktime folder. This method is no longer successful.
    Changing the settings for each individual user is not an option, we need a method that will change the setting for any past, current, or future user on all of our computers.
    Any guidance is appreciated.

    Trying to figure out the same thing. I came across the following two links but I don't think they will disable the updates to community help itself. So from what I can gather you need to do the following:
    Turn off autoupdates to AIR (See below)
    Turn off updates to Community Help (No clue how to do this)
    Install Local content (See below)
    Disables updates to AIR

  • My firefox recently updated. Now my pop mail server won't work. I did a 'restore' to last week, and it was fine. It has now auto updated. No mail server.

    I have read through several responses to others who are having problems following an update. I am not computer savvy enough to understand half of the recommended 'solutions'. I need clear and definitive instructions of what to do. (Instruction for 'dummies' is what I need.) I can not 'restore' my computer continuously, only to have the auto updates cause the pop mail server to stop working each time. If there is nothing I can do, I guess I will have to stop using Mozilla Firefox. Can you help?

    There is no solution for Firefox and POP. Firefox doesn't do email and has no need for a POP email server.
    If you are using Firefox to view and send "email", you are accessing a webmail service provider.

  • Enabling Silent Auto-update in Java 7.45 as a non-local administrator user, enterprise best practices?

    So I have been looking through forums, java help, and everywhere possible for more insight on java in an enterprise environment. What I have found so
    far is that there is no actual way to enable auto updates to install as a non-local admin user.
    I know you can turn on and off updates My company wants to install java JRE as a silent-autoupdate "always update" kind of installation, but all my users are domain users, without admin rights. When it finds an update - it prompts for credentials and obviously they are denied. Is this even possible?  If it is not possible to "auto-update" non local admins, I can make the case to management that java releases need to be QA'd and controlled releases. My environment is adminstudio/installshield and SCCM. I know auto-installing updates to java without QA per version , in a enterprise environment, is not good practice, but its not my decision right now.
    thank you very much!

    Hi and thank you very much for responding!
    I'd be interested in further answers:
    Our company is developing unsigned applets ...Why?Sufficient functionality. We dont want to e. g. access the customers local file system, we just wanted to use the applet as viewer sending data to and from the server where the applet was loaded from. Nothing else.
    1. What is the idea to show messages for unsigned applets running in a secure sandbox.. why when running in a sandbox, and why not also for potentially more dangerous signed applets?With a signed applet you know who is taking the responsibility.With unsigned applets, I rely on the sandbox responsibility. I actually couldn't do anything dangerous by accident.
    With signed applets, I'm fully responsible that nothing bad happens to the clients data. Preventing this is the main task for the java sandbox, so why not use it?
    Just to clarify: Is it right that each signed applet has full access rights?
    3. Is there any recommended strategy to sign an applet to work across browsers, platforms, JRE versions?Err, sign it?Does the signing scheme matter? According to http://mindprod.com/jgloss/signedapplets.html, there are lots of...
    Could you recommend a good tutorial? I'm an absolute beginner concerning signing of applets.
    4. Are there negative side-effects to sign an applet?Only that it forces you to sign all its components. Not sure what this question means.What about loading time and jar filesize?
    Does JarIndex work with multiple signed modular applet jars?
    Must javascript code also be signed to talk to signed applets?
    Is a client able to see a signed applet a) without see or interact with a confirmation window and b) without doing any prerequisites (like adding certificates or similar)?
    Thanks, Peter

    Fred,
    Thanks so much for the reply. Amy way you could elaborate on the "known issue" aspect? Is there another thread I missed? Some sort of Knowledge base article? also, I'm not sure why you linked to the page you did. FF is installed on all my machines and I can of course download the latest version every couple of weeks and push it to all my lab iMacs using ARD, so I'm confused as to why you linnked me to FF's installer page - is there something I can do with the installer that will alow auto-updates that I'm missing/not aware of?
    Again, thanks for the heads-up and any further elaboration on either further info on the issue or how I might use the installer to auto-update all my machines will be appreciated.

  • Auto Updater Off?

    I am travelling to Vietnam this week, and I enrolled in the ATT "World Traveller" plan so I could use my phone while there.
    I was told to turn off the "auto updater" feature of my iPhone to prevent running up extra charges. I thought it would be an easy feature to find and turn off on my phone, but alas, I can't figure it out. Wish I would have had the ATT guy talk me thru it...!!!
    Can anyone here help me with this?
    Hopefully someone has already dealt with this issue and can show me the way!
    THANKS!!

    Accessing the internet via wi-fi with the iPhone has nothing to do with at&t, or with any cellular provider or cellular data network. Accessing the internet via an available wi-fi network with the iPhone is no different from doing the same with a computer.
    Data Roaming is off by default with the iPhone. You can leave wi-fi on with your iPhone to access available wi-fi networks at no extra charge from at&t. Turning data roaming on with your iPhone will allow for accessing the internet via the cellular network being used with your iPhone while there, and any data downloaded or uploaded via a cellular network when roaming internationally will be an additional charge by the KB downloaded or uploaded. Keep data roaming off - which is off by default, and you will only be able to access the internet via an available wi-fi network when wi-fi is on. Some wi-fi networks may be free, and others may require payment for access - just as in the U.S.

    It looks like the issue is that the IPS is running the E3 engine (6.1(1)E3).  All new updates require the E4 engine, so you'll have to update the sensor to 6.2(2)E4 or 7.0(4)E4.  Upgrade links and instructions can be found here:
