Latest Adobe Flash Player keeps asking "Allow" and wont play videos

Hi,
Since the latest update of Adobe Flash Player 17 i cant get videos who depend on it to play anymore. Im running latest Internet Explorer in Windows 7 and all was fine until the latest update of the flash player a couple of days ago.
The issue is that everytime i go to for example Youtube the video is black with the small cross top left, and at the bottom of the browser i get the Windows banner telling me about plugins, and especially Adobe Flash Player. And i have the two options of allowing or allow for all. However when i click any of them the page just refresh and the banner comes up again. The only way ive been able to watch videos is to uninstall the flash player since at least Youtube works without it. Any other site that depends on Adobe Flash Player wont work however. Just the same issue with the banner asking me to allow the flash plugin which never goes away.
I tried uninstalling/reinstalling several times without luck. When i check the browser plugins i see Shockwave/Flash being enabled.
I saw an earlier post by someone on this forum asking about this and the respons was that it had been answered somewhere else, but without a link. I cant find that post so i would be thankful if someone could direct me to it. I have thought that there was something wrong with the latest flash player (v17) since it worked fine since 1 year back when i installed Windows. It just stopped working just now a couple of days ago, at the exact time the new flash installed.
Thank you in advance.

If Flash Player works on some sites and not others, then it's an issue with the site not correctly detecting the presence of Flash Player.
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Adobe flash player uses 250% of my cpu playing videos...how is that possible?

Adobe flash player uses 250% of my cpu playing videos...how is that possible?

That is totally possible if you do not have Flash set to
enable hardware accelerations. Right click on a playing
Flash video and select settings from the pop up.
Click the little monitor icon at the bottom left corner.
Check the check box "Enable hardware acceleration."
With out this set, the CPU does all the work of decoding the
video instead of the video card.
update:
As a quick check, went to Hulu and started an episode of
Warehouse 13. With hardware acceleration enabled, CPU
was at 37% for Flash. With hardware acceleration disabled,
this jumped up to 138%.
The test was done on a 2011 Mac Mini Server 2.0 GHz, quad core i7.

Adobe Flash Player will not allow me to play Mu Classic

I signed up for Mu Classic. However, once I got to level 60 a pop up interrupted me saying I had to download something into adobe flash player to optimize the performance. When I clicked "Deny" however, nothing happened. What is going on? And I have already contacted Mu and they said to contact adobe

This popup comes up when the site you are browsing tries to store some information on your disk. As per image attach, the requested size this particular site asking is unlimited. You can either allow it here or if you trust this site, you can explicit allow this site by going to preferences -> Flash Player-> Storage tab -> click on "Local Storage Site setting" -> Click on "+" button and add the site and from the drop down you need to select "Allow".
In Case if you are using window OS please go to control panel and then repeat the same above steps.
Thanks

My Flash Player keeps asking me to install it again?

Every time I open a certain program or game online my computer wants me to download the new version of Flash Player, the issue is that I have downloaded it and done everything the program needs me to do on my MAC. Then when I go to re-open the program/ game it says that I need to download it. I am now at a complete lost of what to do and can not use certain programs because of this issue. What should I do???

It is very unlikely that you get an answer, as you do not provide any basic information.

Your admin account password.

When I want to play a video, it asks me to download the latest Adobe Flash player, and the iPad won't do that.

The iPad doesn't and never will support the Flash program. You will need to download and install a different browser like the aforementioned Skyfire. Photon and Puffin are also mentioned as browsers that support Flash. Or see if the place you're accessing that video from has an app.

After the latest version of Adobe flash player was installed, movies and tv shows will not play, and

After the latest version of Adobe Flash Player was installed, movies and tv shows will not run, and most of the news videos will not play. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but that does not help.

I have windows (crap) seven and internet explorer. When I try to access movies or tv shows, I'm always asked to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. When I check the programs list, it indicates that Adobe Flash Player Active X is installed. I have uninstalled adobe and reinstalled it several times. Do you suppose this is a virus, and I need to redo the hard drive completely?

Videos stopped playing... I get a black screen then plays for a few seconds and freezes. Have downloaded the latest Adobe flash player and it did not help.

Videos stopped playing correctly. Now I get a black screen, then a few seconds of video and it freezes. I downloaded the latest Adobe Flash player

One of the following steps should help.
1. System Preferences > Other/ Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All
     Press the "Delete All" button
     Install Adobe Flash Player.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Quit Safari.
    Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
2. Enable Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Web Content: > "Enable Plug-ins".
       or
    Internet Plug-ins > "Allow all other plug-ins
3. Check whether you are currently in YouTube HTML 5 trial.
     http://www.youtube.com/html5
    At the bottom left of the page uncheck the box beside
   "You are currently in the HTML5 trial".
4. Reset Safari.
    Click Safari in the menu bar.
    From the drop down select "Reset Safari".
    Uncheck the boxes beside all items.
    Check the box beside "Remove all website data".
    Click "Reset".
5. Turn off Extensions, if any.
    Safari > Preferences > Extensions
     Now try YouTube.
Best.

PS I'm still new to Macs so the more broken down the better.

Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.42 is the most recent version from Adobe. It is a pre-release version. I am using it without any noticeable problems.
The current stable version is Download 11.7.700.169.
