Manual install of Flash Player

I have a Power PC based Macbook pro running 10.5.1. For some
reason my flash player stopped working and now when I try to
install it, it tells me the installation failed and that I need to
manually install it. They (Firefox I suppose) even provide a button
for the "manual Install" but this just takes me back to the
"Download Flash Player" page and gives me no information on how a
manual install is done. When I try and do the same thing through
Safari it tells me I don't have the necessary administrative power
to complete the install. I am th only user of the machine and the
administrator. I have FLASH the program. If I reinstall that might
it replace my flash player? Can anyone help me?

There are two different versions of Flash for Windows, the '''''ActiveX''''' version for IE and the '''Plugin''' version used by Firefox and most other browsers.
1.Download the Flash Plugin version setup file from here: <br />
[http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_32bit.exe Adobe Flash - 32-bit Plugin version]. <br />
Save it to your Desktop.<br />
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Why can't I install the flash player on my Kindle Fire???

    I have tried several times to install the flash player on my Kindle Fire but it keeps telling me there is an issue opening the download. How am I able to download it yet am unable to install it. It makes no sense to me why it would be able to download yet not be able to open the installation. Is this a problem that is being fixed? I've tried to "troubleshoot" this issue myself but there is little information on it. If the Kindle Fire is unable to install the Adobe Flash player then there needs to be some changes made either on your companies part or Amazons. There are apps offered on the Kindles that need this flash player in order to operate. If you could back to me with an answer as soon as possible I would greatly aprreciate it. Thank you.

    Hi,
    Although we continue to provide security and patch releases for Android devices which originally shipped with Adobe Flash Player, new feature development for the Android browser has drawn to a close as we shift our focus to Adobe AIR for mobile applications. For more details on the rationale for our decision I refer you to the following article.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/conversations/2011/11/flash-focus.html
    The following article describes how to manually install the Adobe Flash Player manually on your Android device.

    Another alternative is to install the SkyFire browser, which appears to support Flash Video.

    # Question
    I want to download and install adobe flash player. When I do so one of 2 things occur. A dialog box appears but it has no run option but a save file or cancel option. The other is if the proper dialog box appears, I agree and the a different box appears and there is foxfire with a red circle with a diagonal line across is appears.

    I find the easiest way to install Adobe Flash is to use the manual installers. You just need to download the installer to your computer, then run it to install Flash. For more details see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller
    That link states you should uninstall earlier versions, as you don't have the version of Flash used by Firefox you can skip that step.

  • Cannot Install Adobe Flash Player 11

    I am trying to install Adobe Flash Player 11 onto a my computer but it just goes to 95% and locks up.
    I am using Windows XP Pro- version 5.1, service pack 3
    Enternet Explorer 8- version 8.0.6001.187.02
    The computer had a working copy of Adobe Flash 10X and Adobe Air on it.  When I could not get the Player 11 to install (went to 95% then locked).  I tried to un-install both the Flash 10X and Air, but they would not un-install (sent auto. error reports to microsoft).  So I used a pro un-installer program to uninstall them both, but the un-installer could not delete the "windows/system32/atmfd.dll" file.  Tried to un-install the atmfd.dll file manually but only get the "cannot delete atmfd: Access denied" error.
    I have tried clearing all my browser cookies, history, ect., stop my anti-viruse program, ran a register repair program, and re-booting my computer, then running the Adobe Flash Un-install Program (which always shows that the fash program is completly un-installed) and re-running the Adobe Flash 11 install program again.
    Same thing, the installer goes to 95% and locks up to the point that the only way to stop the installer program is to reboot my computer.
    What can I do to get this Adobe Flash 11 installed, as since I removed the old Flash 10X program I no longer have any Adobe Flash?  Which I do need.

    Ok, here is what I had to do to get the Adobe Flash 11 to install.
    (1. Run the Adobe un-install program from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315
    (2. Go in c:/windows/system32 and delete the Macromedia folder
    (3. Run a register repair program to fix any register errors.
    (4 Go in c:/Documents and Settings/Application Data and delete the Macromedia folder
    (5 Go in c:/Documents and Settings/Application Data/Adobe and delete the Flash Player folder
    (6 Go to Adobe.com and run the standard Adobe Flash 11 install program (the offline installer's at the Adobe site listed above would not run after I deleted the Documents and Settings/Application Data folders, for some reason)
    (7 When it got to Finish, allow it to auto. open a CMD screen and then answered Y to both questions.
    This is how I got it to complete the install and not lock up at 95%.  For some reason the Adobe un-install program was not removing the Documents and Settings Adobe Flash Player programs and these are what were locking up the install program.

  • Problems installing Adobe Flash Player 14.0.0.125.

    Can not get my MacBook Pro 17" to install Adobe Flash Player 14.0.0.125.  Our iMac installed it.
    The system hangs forever looking for resources

    Hopefully, you'll be installing the 14.0.0.145 Flash update very soon - however the same problem you experienced persists with that.
    Fortunately there is a simple solution.
    There appears to be a problem with Adobe Flash Player Install Manager - the simple answer is to let the system install the flash update instead:
    When you use the Flash updater, it downloads a disk image to a temp folder (inside /private/var/folders but you don't need to know that). This is automatically mounted (briefly) while the app 'Adobe Flash Player Install Manager' launches. Adobe Flash Player Install Manager is supposed to manage the whole instillation but in some case it gets stuck. If this process fails for you (such as hanging on 95% completion), there is a very simple route forward which doesn't require you to open your browser or manually download anything.
    It only requires 3 steps and you can be 100% sure you are getting the correct update - the one Adobe tried to install but failed. I've broken these down into detailed but very simple substeps (further down this post) for anybody who is unsure, but experienced users can probably just follow these three steps:
    Force quit Adobe Flash Player Install Manager
    Locate and mount the Flash Player Installer disk image with Disk Utility
    Locate the Adobe Flash Player installer package within the Install Manager app and run the installation from Finder
    Hope this helps. Enjoy.
    Those steps in detail (as carried out in OSX 10.6.8).
    1. Force quit Adobe Flash Player Install Manager
    Press these three keys together: Cmd + Option (or Alt) + esc
    Select Adobe Flash Player Install Manager in the popup window titled "Force Quit Applications"
    Hit return or click the button labelled "Force Quit"
    2. Locate and mount the Flash Player Installer disk image with Disk Utility
    Open Disk Utility (in Applications/Utilities folder or find it with Spotlight)
    On the left hand side, your attached drives and mounted volumes are listed above a horizontal line. Below that line you should see one or more disk images (named e.g. something.dmg). These are recently accessed disk images - including one containing the adobe updater.
    At or near the bottom of that list you should see something called decryptedFile.dmg
    Under that you might see a (greyed out) volume image called Flash Player
    Double click decryptedFile.dmg (or the Flash Player volume if you can see it - it makes no difference).
    This should mount a volume titled "Flash Player" and automatically open a finder window showing the contents.
    The volume "Flash Player" will show up in your Finder sidebar and on your desktop (unless you've chosen not to show External Disks in Finder preferences)
    3. Locate the Adobe Flash Player installer package and run the installation from Finder
    You should by now have a Finder window open showing the contents of the volume "Flash Player". If not, open a new Finder window and click on Flash Player in the sidebar. The sole contents are an app called Install Adobe Flash Player.
    Right click the item "Install Adobe Flash Player" and select "Show Package Contents" from the contextual menu that appears.
    This opens a new window showing a folder called "Contents". Open it by double clicking to reveal the contents including a folder called "Resources".
    Locate and open the folder "Resources" and look for a file called Adobe Flash Player (Adobe Flash Player.pkg)
    This is the Installer Package for the update. Double Click it.
    Don't be put off by the words "Welcome to the Adobe Flash Player Installer" - this is not the Adobe Flash Install Manager (the one that failed you earlier) this is Apple's "Installer" app.
    Follow the steps to the end then eject the volume Flash Player in the normal way (e.g. Finder sidebar)
    Open the Flash Player control panel to check the current version has now been updated.
    Don't be put off by "PPAPI Plug-in is not installed" - you can ignore it.
    Some steps may go differently if you are running a different version of Mac OS X  - I use 10.6.8

  • Installing Adobe Flash Player via microsoft Group Policy

    I created two MSI files as recommended by Adobe and install the flash player updates through Group Policy. I have it setup so that the MSI files get published in windows 7 program/features. so when people are on the VPN they can install it manually. When they click on the application, they get an error saying you must have administrative priviliedges to install adobe flash player 12.
    There is something in the MSI file stopping it from installing as if you publish it in Program/Features via Group Policy it should allow them to install it without administrative rights as they can install Java software with no issues.ny assistan
    Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Win2012, like Win 8, has Flash Player embedded into IE by Microsoft. The ActiveX plugin cannot be installed from any download here. There is a Windows Update KB patch and two registry keys that prevent it. Unless you manually remove those, the only way to do anything with Flash Player ActiveX for Win8 or Win2012 is through Windows Update.
    Those losers in Redmond (or India) only told you to get it fixed here because they REFUSE to accept responsibility for the gabrage browser they shoved down everyone's throats with IE11.
    If you're in a corporate environment and cannot use another browser, then the best you can do is repair IE (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378) and run Windows update again.
    If you need the "standalone" Flash Player Projector, it's here: Download the Windows Flash Player 13 Projector
    If you need the plug-in for other browsers, it's here: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    But there is no updating the ActiveX plug-in from here, in spite of what Microsoft told you.

  • Full install of Flash Player?

    When I install the Flash Player plugin (via downloading and
    running install_flash_player.exe), I end up with only the following
    files in C:\WINDOWS\system21\macromedia\Flash:
    flashplayer.xpt
    install.log
    NPSWF32.dll
    NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe
    uninstall_plugin.exe
    I find nothing is added to Start > All Programs. Nor do I
    find a .exe file to run. How do you manually run Flash Player?
    The reason I ask is I have a problem where YouTube (and
    other) videos don't have audio, which I think might be a problem
    with my default settings in Sounds and Audio Devices Properties,
    where no default setting is showing up (or settable) in the Voice
    Playback default device slot of the Voice tab.
    So I want to override this blank default in Flash Player
    itself, pointing it to my SoundMAX audio device.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks,
    - Willie
