Latest Mozilla onboard & registered Adobe Systems user, so why asked to update Adobe Flash Player everytime to see u-tube video?

On needing and trying to do medical research, I am directed to university videos that are on u-tube.
Have latest version of Mozilla Firefox compatible with Windows 7 Ultimate original registered operating system onboard. All critical MS downloads shown, all hot fixes done. No download failures per Belarc PC Summary, MS security in place.
Have Windows 7 Ultimate (x64) Service Pack build 7601, on an HP pavilion dv6 Notebook PC.
Registered with Adobe Systems Inc.: A Version 2.7, Reader version: 10.1.8.24, Reader and Acrobat Mgr. Version: 1.7.4.0, Adobe Flash Player Update Service Version: 12.0.0.44 and Adobe Systems Inc. Shock Ware Flash Version: 11,9,900,170.
Yet every time I go to U-tube for above needs, it is as though I am being blocked with a small message dead center of screen that reads: "This plugin is vulnerable and needs to be updated-Active Adobe Flash".
What do I do now--this is not only frustrating, it is time-consuming?
My computer is not linked to my iPhone 4S, which I use it for calls and texts--do mountain rescue, teach illiterates to read in English as a long-time volunteer, make pastoral care and medical outreach calls as requested, in person--in addition to working.
Thank you,

Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ Plugin Check site].

If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
To do so, please click each yellow or red button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

Re-install adobe flash player everytime i restart the computer

Hello,
i found a thread in the ADOBE forum where a user reported he had to reinstall adobe flash player everytime he restarts his computer. I am having the same problem, can you please walk me through a solution?
thanks

Hi,
I registered just so I could try to help with this problem. I LITERALLY was having the same exact problem for a long time. I finally found a solution. Here is what I did:
*If Using Firefox:
1. Start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding the Shift Button and double clicking the firefox browser icon. It should give you the options to "Start in Safe Mode" or "Reset Firefox". - Start in "Safe Mode".
2. Download the newest flash player from adobe's website.
3. Download the Adobe Flash UNISTALLER from Adobe as well.
4. Close the browser and run the Adobe Flash Player UNISTALLER.
5. Once complete, locate "C:\Windows\System32" folder on your C: drive.
6. Find the folder called "Macromed" and DELETE the entire folder.
7. RESTART YOUR COMPUTER.
8. Once computer starts back up, hold the SHIFT button and double on the Firefox icon to launch it. This time when presented with the option to start in "Safe Mode" or "Reset Firefox", click "RESET FIREFOX".
9. Once it completes, close the browser and RESTART YOUR COMPUTER AGAIN.
10. Once it starts back up, install the Adobe Flash Player. When that is finished. RESTART your computer one last time. ***This last time is to verify that after your computer is turned off and back on, the flash player will still work.****
11. When your computer starts back up, open the firefox browser NORMALLY and go to a site like youtube that uses flashes. If the videos play correctly and you dont receive a message about installing flash player,......CONGRATULATIONS!!! PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
12. ****OPTIONAL!!!**** - Go to firefox addons and check to make sure all of your plugins are up to date. You should see adobe flash player in the list as up to date. If so, restart your computer one last time, start the browser agin and check your plugins once more. If they are still up to date, you're problem is officially solved.
If this solved your problem, please let people know. Look at the date I posted this reply. Its still been happening long after you first started this forum.

How do i get the adobe flash player so i can watch youtube videos?

how do i get the adobe flash player so i can watch youtube videos?

Software is always safest directly from the developer or the App Store.
There are numerous untrustworthy 'update' sites like Cnet & Softonic, & many users won't know that one is to be trusted (so far) but not most of the others.
Adobe make Flash Player : get it from Adobe.

After downloading (I think) Adobe Flash Player, I can't get ANY video to play (it indicates "plug-in failure). What's going on?

Does Macbook really needs adobe flash player download in order to watch video clips on the web?

Hello Angel8C,
Your MacBook Air running Yosemite will need an updated version of the Flash Player plugin to play web content that is in the Flash format (not all video content is Flash; there is also HTML5 video, amongst others). If you are being prompted to update your Flash Player plugin, you may find the following article helpful:

I have Mozilla Firefox and Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in won't allow me to watch YouTube videos

Up until last week I had IE9 and was able to download and watch YouTube videos with my son and play Facebook games. Then one evening I tried to pull up a Yo Gabba Gabba video on YouTube and the video window was blank. I had watched this video the night before with him, and the only thing I can think of is there was a Flash Player update that tried to download. I saw several posts that suggested downloading a new broswer, but I waited for 3 nights thinking it was just a glitch. I finally gave up and sent a pm to one of my friends who is a Internet Service Technician. She told me to download Mozilla Firefox, which I did, and the problem seemed to be solved. I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos, as well as play games on Facebook. And it seemed my pages, pictures, etc. all downloaded 10x faster. That worked until the next evening and suddenly I once again could not download and watch YouTube videos.
I checked my system and it found that Adobe had done an automatic update so that instead of just having Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I now had Adobe Flash Player 13 plug-in. I also noticed that Adobe Air was downloaded on my computer. I went in and uninstalled the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in and I was once again able to download and watch YouTube videos. But when I tried to play games on Facebook I was told I would need to install at least Adobe Flash Player 10.0.2. I went to find that or an older version but each time I tried to download from Adobe I would get the Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in version, and once again I was unable to download and watch YouTube videos. I was, however, able to play the games on Facebook again.
Remember when I just had Adobe Flash Player 13 Active X I was able to do both while having Mozilla Firefox. I have looked all over the internet and I cannot find recent articles that talk about this problem. Can someone please tell me what I can do so that I can keep Mozilla Firefox, as it is 10X faster than IE9 and with Firefox my Facebook doesn't crash all of the time? But I also want to have the ability to download and watch YouTube videos with my son, as well as the play games on Facebook.
I should also note each time I went to uninstall Adobe Flash Player 13 Plug-in I received an error message saying there was a conflict with Mozilla Firefox and I first had to shut it down before the uninstall would proceed. Also, I received a reply on Adobe's Facebook page from a Tech who had me check to see if I had the latest version of Flash Player. I did have the most recent version. He then asked me to go to my add-ons and enable Shockwave. I followed the instructions and it was already enabled (or it said always activate). Neither of those helped me be able to download and watch YouTube videos. But I can still play Facebook games.

What is your current Flash Player version: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html ?

Sick and tired of having to reinstall Adobe Flash Player everytime I restart my computer.

I'm running the Latest Flash player 11.2on Windows 7 64bit with IE 9 and McAfee antivirus and this problem has been going on for at least a year. I keep hoping that a new version of flash player will solve the problem but after a year I am just sick of problems with Flash. (I hate Steve Jobs but I'm beginning to share his view of Flash.) Every time I start my laptop I have to reinstall Flash to view any videos or flash content on the web. I always get a message that I need to update my flash player and I have already updated it a million times. After I update it works until I restart the machine. I searched for solutions on Google, Adobe Forum and tried all the different suggestions but the problem continues. I've tried using other Antivirus programs but the problem continues. It doesn't matter if I use the 32 bit or 64 bit IE. It's always the same problem. Why can't Adobe find a solution to this problem? People have been complaining about the problem since Flash Player 9. I've experienced the problem since Flash player 10. I'm wondering if Adobe is doing it intentionally just to increase the number of downloads for the Adobe Flash player and every time I have to deselect the stupid Google bar. Maybe Adobe is just trying to make more money off Google by forcing me to reinstall two or three times a day?

Sorry, I should have explained more. You do indeed want to use the 64 bit installer, it's just that this installer actually installs both the 32 and 64-bit versions of Flash Player. The 32 bit version of Flash Player is kept in the syswow64\macromed\flash folder and the 64 bit version is in system32\macromed\flash.
I'm a bit concerned that this might not help, given that you see the same behavior for both 32 and 64 bit versions of IE, but doing a clean install can't hurt and should hopefully fix the install log issue I see in the reports you sent me.
If you can, please generate another set of logs after doing the uninstall and folder/file deletions.

Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player, some sites do not play video

Hi,
Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player and active x from adobe.com, some sites do not play the video. A request box, install the plug in comes. When i click it, it again tries to install the same version of adobe, which i have already downloaded. it is only for some sites.
May be it is because, it is site problem? How to overcome it

ActiveX is part of the Windows operating system. Plus the ActiveX version of Adobe Flash is for Internet Explorer. Other browsers need their own version of Flash' Firefox needs the Plugin version of Flash.
If you go to the Adobe website to download Flash while using Firefox, Adobe will provide the correct version of Flash automatically. Just make sure you de-select any other programs that Adobe may want to stick you with before you actually download Flash. Then close Firefox and run the Adobe Flash installer.

Adobe Flash Player will not play my .flv video

I redered a 5 min editing from Premier CS4 as steaming FLV, but if I try to play it in Adobe Flash Player, the player will open with white background and not play the movie. The file is playing though in other players like Adobe Media Player. Is there something special about a movie flv to play in AFP?
Thank you,

FLV needs to be inside of a SWF container that manages it's playback. The Media Player provides that for you, but the standalone Flash Player doesn't. So you can make one in Flash easily with components, or you can just download any one of the many free ones (for example, I've personally used Jeroen Wing's "JV Player" from longtail)

You have version 10,2,159,1 installed of Adobe Flash Player and i get a split video screen

Adobe Flash Player

Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.
See [[Cannot view full screen Flash videos]]
* http://www.youtube.com/swf_test.html (right-click the player: Settings)
Flash "Display settings" window:
* http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
If that works then see if you can find an update for your graphics display driver.

Whay is the latest version of the adobe flash player?

I can not get any steaming videos to play, i have tried several different sites as well as updating to the latest firefox version and adobe flash player. Internet explorer will play streams fine. Streaming worked fine yesterday.

Steaming videos will not work on firefox, but will work on internet explorer.

Hi arpriltime,
Have you looked at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-crashes-or-flash-plugin-crashes Flash plugin troubleshooting section]? There is a lot of useful information in there that should help you get to the bottom of your issue.
Hopefully this helps!

I have installed the latest ersion of the Adobe flash player, and youtube still says I need to install the latest version of Adobe flash player in order to see the video. What's the problem?

You can check the version under Apple Menu > System Preferences > Flash Player. Did you quit and restart Safari after the install?
