Latest Flash player problems on IE9 and Win7
After many attempts, I was finally able to install latest Flash on IE9. Installer said successfully installed. Every page visited afterwards poped up an IE error that Flash Player would open outside of protected mode. Previous version did not cause error. IE settings have not changed. Used Flash uninstaller. Dowloaded Flash for IE and also non IE. Installed IE version. Installer said installation was sucessful.Same protected mode popup.

Thanks Chris,
I used Beyond Compare to verify that the uninstaller was the same as what I had used previously. It was.
The only thing that is different than what I had done previously is deleting the macromed folder. It contained 6 .cfg files in /flash/flashplayertrust/. The reboots and install file were the same as previous attempts.
Today, I have no more popups.
One thing I did notice is that Shockwave Active X Control 11.6.1 never uninstalled. It was still present after uninstalling flash and rebooting. Is Shockwave still used?
Don
Hi Don,
I love Beyond Compare, been using it for years!
I wonder if those cfg files were to blame, you don't happen to still have them in your trash do you? If so, would you mind sending them to me at [email protected]?
As for Shockwave, I haven't used it in a long time, but I'm sure there's content out there somewhere for it.

I downloaded the latest flash player on my mac and still does not work
i downloaded the latest flash player on my mac and still does not work
Exactly where did you download Flash from, if you did not download it from
http://get2.adobe.com/flashplayer/
you did not get an authorized version.
If you did and it still does not work then you should be in touch with one of the Flash Player or Adobe help forums, because it's an Adobe product they would know best how to troubleshoot issues. -

Someone please help me with my flash player problems, i install and then told its not installed
i have windows 7 only on my laptop now, but it seems that i have all the necessary products needed to play games etc. I have all my programs that need updates marked to do so as available. I have noticed when i go to particular sites now , like games in FB or games thru my AOL they tell me i need to install the newest version of the flash player. so i do that, go back to that site, same notification appears to install. i dont know ALOT about my laptop but have learned enough to know that i should very well it should be there if i have installed it time and time again correct? i dont understand the whole basis of what i might need for different sites/games. I have been playing the Big Fish game site since Dec. 2012 and it seems ever since i have been on a daily visit to that site SOMEHOW i cant play any other sites games now. so i read , do this, than this, if this or that is needed..........well it becomes a miss in my brain as to what they are telling/suggesting could be the problem. I truly need someone that has this knowledge to help me learn. i use to play on the webkinz world site for over a year, so last night i thought i would go back in there and again the flash player notice. so something has changed that i am unaware of it and how to solve it. i totally appreciate any help and time someone could give me. thank you,
In any case, the Flash Player forum is here:

Hi!
Ive got Internet Explorer, FireFox and Opera browser
installed on my system with Vista as OS!
The problem is that Internet Explorer tells me to update the
Flash Player (and I got the latest), while FireFox and Opera works
fine. Dose anyone her know what to do, to get Internet Explorer to
understand that the latest Flash Player really is installed, and
should work just fine.
Anyone with any idea of how to solve this big problem?
Kind regards

ediTEDInternet 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. -

Make sure to update the latest Flash Player for your PC (And not the Google Chrome) Plugin by going to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer via Internet Explore.

Confirm any prompt or alert, reboot the PC if prompted to and check for any change,

Flash Plug-In Warning
Explanation:
You do not have the Flash player installed on your browser.
How to Fix the Problem:
This game requires the Flash plug-in.
Download the latest Flash player now.
So I download latest still get error messageIt is best to go to the source, Adobe, to get their software and updates. Sometimes malware can infect sites with messages that appear legitimate, but will, instead, install malware/virus/trojan on your system. Read the following carefully to install and/or update Adobe Flash.
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually. '''''You do not have Adobe Flash (aka "Shockwave Flash" in Add-ons > Plugins) installed.'''''
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
#Direct link ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''': http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe

Problems Installing Latest Flash Player
Hellohello!
My Adobe Flash Player for Mozilla Firefox has been giving me troubles these past months, so today I decided to install a more recent version on my laptop.
Following the instructions, I deinstalled the old version before initializing the download/installation of the latest Flash Player. That, however, proved to be a mistake, as the installation has failed continously so far and now I have no player to my avail at all.
I have tried installation several times, but the process didn't even start and just left me the message 'Aktionsliste nicht gefunden' (action list not found).
I'm using a Fujitsu Siemens Laptop Computer with 32 Bit operating system and Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU processor. Windows Visa with Service Pack 2 is installed. So I guess the problem can't be due to a deficiency in system requirements and I also made sure that the required plug-in is activated and that any other version of the player is removed from my laptop.
Being anything but a computer/IT expert, I would be very very grateful if anybody could help me out. I'm at my wit's end in this matter, have spent the last three hours scouting for possible solutions to this problem.. to no avail whatsoever.
Thanks a million in advance!!
LauraHi Laura,
Most of these installation problems are caused by antivirus apps. These days, practically all of them incorporate web shields to protect you from downloading malware, files shields to prevent you from installing rogue pograms and the like. It's the file scanner which is the most problematical because it springs into action as soon as you run an installer of any kind. This interferes with the installation process and leads to file corruption further down the line.
In the current circumstances, I suggest you proceed as follows. First of all, disable all antivirus shields. If you happen to be using AVAST antivirus, right click the orange icon in the systray and choose to disable all shields for one hour. If you're using a different AV app, look for something similar in the user menus. Then proceed as follows.
Download the Flash uninstaller from here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Close all browsers.
Reboot. This is important to clear the Windows Registry after you uninstall something.
When the system reboots to the desktop, disable those AV shields again.
Download the installer from here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax_32bit.exe This is the installer for Internet Explorer. When you see the prompt, choose "Run" to install it immediately.
If you use another browser like Firefox, Opera, Safari etc., download this one as well: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_32bit.exe When you see the download prompt for this one, choose "Save" instead and save it somewhere you can find it afterwards.
After you complete the installation process, go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to check that everything went according to plan.
You may require this player as well: http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ It's rather like an enhanced version of the Flash Player and you'll need it to play games where you have some interaction with the animation. You don't need to run an uninstaller for this one. Simply download and click "Run" in Internet Explorer where you want to install it in that specific browser, or choose "Save" when you want to install it in any other browser. -
I have an eight year old iMac running OSX 10.6.8 and just installed the latest Flash Player but the audio won't play on the youtube music website. What else do I need to update or install to listen to the music?
just installed the latest Flash Player
Did you uninstall all the previous versions of Adobe Flash Player? Did you repair permissions and restarted your computer after the installation?
Which browser & version are you using? Have you tried other browsers?
Please advise. -
i have mac 10.6.8 and safari 5.1.10. on checking help website i am told latest flash player 16.0.0.305 is already installed BUT does not appear on my list of applications and am unable to access websites requiring it. have also downloaded flash player installer app but unable to download the flash player itself. can anyone help? thank you!
Hi Anne,
Your version of Safari is still supported. Please see Adobe Flash Player | Tech specs for supported OS and browsers.
If the Flash Player plugin is in the Plug-ins (disabled) folder it's because it's an older version that Apple has disabled in Safari. This has nothing to do with whether or not Flash Player supports the browser.
I'm not sure what you mean by "when i click on flash player itself i am told there is no application to open it." Flash Player.plugin only works in the browser to view Flash content in the browser. The plugin does not open files outside of the browser. If you have SWF files you'd like to view outside of the browser, then you'll need the Flash Player projector. However, based on your previous comments this doesn't appear to be what you are trying to do.
Google Chrome does embed Flash Player in it, while Firefox does not. Mozilla has also recently started blocking older versions of Flash Player in Firefox similar to what Apple is doing in Safari.
Following the 'clean install' instructions should result in you having the latest version of Flash Player installed that will not be blocked by the browser.

On opening google I get the message:"WARNING! Your Flash Player may be out of date. Please update to continue" - on clicking ok I am diverted to Flash Player Pro download site?? Is this a Adobe product? And why even though i have the latest flash player version I repeatedly get the message?
This is not a message that Adobe is providing, and I recommend that you not click on the link. It sounds as though you might have malware on your computer.

iTunes will not open. I am using Windows 7, and have had no trouble with iTunes until yesterday. The only think I did yesterday was install an upgrade to the latest Flash player. From then on, even after deleting and reinstalling iTunes, it still does NOTHING after the screen authorizing iTunes to make changes to the hard drive. I have tried going to the applications and ending process. I've also tried going to Control panel - and tried to repair the program.
If I don't get some help here... iTunes is toast to me.
Thanks,
GaryFromSeffnerFrom then on, even after deleting and reinstalling iTunes, it still does NOTHING after the screen authorizing iTunes to make changes to the hard drive.

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.
/AlexIf 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.
