Msi installer not latest Flash version, still dated 27th Jan!

I work in a large school, we use the distributable flash installer to roll out Flash to our machines. Adobe still hasn't updated their msi files to the current version! So our machines are out of date....
Anyone else in the same boat, fancy airing your frustrations?

The current Flash Player version is 10.0.45.2; the '.exe' installer for 10.0.45.2 I have is dated Jan. 27.
I know that the 10.0.45.2 was reissued somethime in February, but that just added some kind of version check (checking for the presence of later [beta] versions), which just caused problems for lots of users.
So why not use the Jan. 27 installer?

  • Latest flash version will not display images or video

    Latest flash version will not display images or video in 2 x Windows 7 Pro 64bit machines, 1 x Windows 7 Home Premiums, and 1 x XP SP3 under VMWare Workstation 7. Problem plagues Firefox, Chrome, and IE on all systems. Also running Norton Security from Comcast on all machines. Disabling does not appear to help. Suggestions?

    Not sure, this is the one that I really want to view. I am using the latest 11.6 ending in 168. Curious you got the images. The product ones act like they should be displaying for me but don’t. Can you do a capture of the images? The text with small images sometimes comes through and sometimes not. I wonder if there is a problem on the server end.
    When I talk to the Customer Service people they claim to have no reports of problems, but like the sports pro about to be traded, they may be the last ones to know…

  • Exception in FLASH.OCX using Windows 8.1, latest Flash Version

    I have many problems using the latest Flash Version 13.0.0.182. My applications use an embedded version of IExplorer 11 and use OSMF to display P2P Streams. If buffering starts, an exception is thrown and my app crashes with the message "Exception 000000 in FLASH.OCX". This only happens under Windows 8.1 (64 Bit) with latest Flash Version 13.0.0.182, embedded Version. If i call the URL directly into IE, it works.
    - Older Versions works fine
    - On other Windows (Windows 7...) is works fine

    Open entry in bugbase #3744747 (https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3744747)
    Start EXE (Src is included), navigate to http://www.osmf.org/dev/1.5gm/embed.html?favorFlashOverHtml5Video=false will crash the application
    Crash Dump is not available (because of my own EXE, not IE), no dump file in Dump-Folder.

  • Does the latest Flash version not install on Mac Os X 10.5.8?

    I can't install the latest Flash Player on Mac OS X 10.5.8. I also accidentally uninstalled the older version I had installed before. Now, some online programs that were working before no longer work.
    Is there a way to get this fixed without having to update my Mac OS software?
    Thank you for your help.

  • Offline install of the latest Flash versions

    I am an IA Manager for a network that does not have Internet
    access. I need to download the full installation program for Flash
    Player to upgrade to the latest version. Previously, I remember
    Adobe having a link to the full installation program, but lately
    the only link I've found is for the plugin.
    Unfortunately, after installing the plugin, vulnerability
    scans still show Flash Player as being vulnerable. Apparently, the
    scanner is looking for a newer version of
    /%systemroot%/system32/Macromed/Flash/Flash9d.ocx; I have version
    9.0.47.0.
    This is in relation to

    Can anyone point me to a link for the full installation
    download? Thanks....

  • MSI installer not working MSI 5.0 Windows 7

    Hello I am trying to get MSI installer to work and when I go to install anything that has the Windows Installer Package it opens Notepad in a scrambled message. I have tried numerous avenues to no avail (regedit,copy paste regedit, troubleshooters, sfc/scannow,
    command prompt etc.) I tried to choose the file association of MSIexec in System32 and it just opens this 
    I have tried what is suggested in this forum
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/f699e632-54ba-443b-85df-269a7fd6cf1a/windows-installer-not-working?forum=w7itprogeneral and regedit says:
    I have tried this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso1 and didn't work
    I have tried changing C :\Windows\System32\msiexec.exe /V in regedit and that didn't work
    I have searched event viewer and all that's in there is a warning and information of successful installs and uninstalls.
    I have tried %windir%\system32\msi.dll version in Command prompt and it says that the system cannot execute the specified program
    I am thinking it is just a matter of finding the correct file association that the windows installer can use to install that program but I am unable to find that! 
    I did a system restore but the only good restore was from earlier today and it still just opens notepad. before I did the restore I went into services and the computer couldn't find the file (windows installer) so I did a restore and now it at least sees
    the file and I can start the service.
    Can I please get some help fixing this? would uninstalling MSI and re-installing it work? I have been searching forum after forum and nothing has yet worked.
    I did a clean install of windows a couple of weeks ago

    Hi ingenuities, 
    Try importing these reg file under Safe mode.
    If you really need this work, I am supposing the only way is to try importing them manually, if any value key is using by process, use process monitor to filter out these processes and shut them down.I monitored values under MSI.package seems like no
    value was using by system.
    I exported msi.package and patch to text, it is from a clean Windows 7 intallation。

  • IE 9 hang on latest Flash version 11.5.502.110. Working on beta 11.5.500.104...

    Hi,
    I have the same issue on my new three machines. Clean Windows 7 32bit OS with latest SP and IE9 (lastest updates). Adobe Reader, Flash, Shockwave, AIR, QT, RealPlayer, Java 7.
    When running webpages on Admin local account everything works fine. When I switch do any domain account IE 9 hangs.
    I've tried the same on flash version 11.5.500.104 (older) and everything was working fine (I test this many times now). Any ideas how to fix this problem?
    Regards,
    Update....
    Even on local accounts flash is hanging IE. The same on machine not binded to domain.
    I'm going to install fresh Windows 7 with latest MS updates, IE 9 and only with flash to check this issue.

    hello Chris,
    i wanted to chip in as i have been experiencing issues on my machine as well with IE9 since i think, the last update.
    actually i noticed that www.speedtest.net was not working anymore on IE9, i sent an email to their support but now the issue is with flash. the website works OK with chrome and firefox.
    things i tried (admin account):
    - uninstall flash completely with uninstall_flash_player.exe and also with the add/remove programs, nothing happened
    - reinstalled install_flash_player_11_active_x.exe, nothing changed
    - resetted IE9 to default with the "Reset Internet Explorer Settings" somebody suggested
    - after using the uninstall file, i cleaned my registry
    - deleted "Flash" folder under %appdata%\Adobe and %appdata%\Macromedia
    i ran the uninstall file several files, then restarted and reinstalled, what happens is that Chrome always works (as flash is built-in), Firefox works when the plugin is installed (correctly), but nothing anymore in IE9.
    the strange thing is that it was always working fine, i cant tell what happened, probably when i upgraded flash to the latest version.
    when i reinstall flash, if i open this http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html with either chrome and firefox, they correctly populate the version number. with IE, the box at the top remains grey (no errors reported), and the other section is empty as well.
    My PC
    Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit
    IE9
    Firefox 17.0.1
    Chrome 23.0.1271.95
    i am glad is a global issue and not related with my PC as i just spent 2 hours on this.
    thanks

  • Tried latest Flash version 11.4.402.265, but ?????

    Installed Flash version 11.4.402.265 last night (e.g. clean install).
    Using Window 7 64 bit and FireFox 13.0.1.
    Computer very slow this morning and when I had 2 Flash instances open,it just about died.
    Anyone tried this latest and greatest version yet?

    I have tried 11.4.402.265 with firefox 15 beta sound is workin but video is like a slide show and disabling hardware acceleration has no difference.Also is hard to shut down a you tube video have to force shutdown ff in windows.
    11.2.0.235 is working but this is no solution in the long run.
    Hope that adobe can sort out the problem but they dont do anything if nobody complaining.
    So my advise send emails atleast one a day to adobe and complain about it and hope couple thousand do the same.
    And sorry for my language im not so good in english.
    Ps. Installed FF 16 beta and trying soon again.

  • Check latest Flash version using Ajax request

    Hello and here is my simple question.
    Is there any URL on adobe.com site that I can call from my page  to find out latest flash player version? I know how to parse response using JS and just want to show link to http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer if visitor's flash player is outdated and don't bother them with extra buttons is everything is OK.

    I need only number (11.7.700.224 currently) and you think that it will be good style to get whole find-version-flash-player.html page (it is 107kb) and parse 2125 strings of html code just to extract "11.7.700.224" string from it? In that case my JS going to take tons of memory, traffic and CPU time.. I still have hope that there must be some small .xml or text file on adobe site somewhere and I can get it remotely from JS script to find out just "11.7.700.224" string.

  • Downloading offline (standalone) installer of latest Flash player?

    When visiting the normal download link for the latest Flash player (currently 10.3.183.10), it says the file is 2.95 MB. But it's actually 766 KB, i.e. it's a web installer.
    I want to install flash player on a computer which doesn't have proper internet access (don't ask why, long story). Can I find the complete, full, standalone "offline" installer anywhere on adobe.com ?

    Hi,
    I went in search of a standalone or offline installer of the latest Adobe Flash and a Google search landed me here.  Anyway I managed to sort out my download but not with anything on this posting so I have registered to share my solution:
    Searching for an 'offline' or 'standalone' isntaller doesnt work.  If you search on Google for 'adobe flash distribution download' or something along those lines using the keyword 'distribution' you will quickly find what you need.  That said below is the link that works at the time of this posting:

  • Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. w/latest Flash version.

    Despite following both Firefox and Flash directions, Firefox won't play videos from YouTube, Hulu, etc. They either never load or they load and freeze within seconds. Before I got the latest versions of Firefox and Flash, I did not have this problem. So there must be a problem in one or both of them. Since I understand from various websites that this is a widespread problem, can Firefox fix this? It's a major flaw in the latest Firefox version.

    '''If you are running Adblock Plus...'''
    While on a YouTube page, right click the ABP icon and "open blockable items".
    When the window opens at the bottom of the page, right click this line: http://s.ytimg.com/yt/swfbin/watch_as3-vfl9DouAr.swf (or some variation) , then "Disable Filter".

  • Flash no longer works for me since installing Firefox 3.6.19. I am running Mac OS 10.4 on a PowerPC, which is not supported by the latest Flash version. Do I need to go back to the previous version of Firefox?

    If I do need to go back a version, any suggestions or links on doing this w/o losing any bookmarks or settings? Complete uninstall/reinstall? I've not had to do this kind of thing before. Thanks!

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

  • The Firefox 8.0.1 release is crashing ALL THE TIME on MacBook Pro OSX 10.6.8 after installing latest Flash version

    At this time, Firefox is virtually unusable on the Mac now.
    This is not related to any particular website, although websites with flash or java script or "fancier" I/Fs are assured to crash Firefox.
    For example, a minute ago, I tried to enter a search phrase into Google (main page) and crash. I tried to enter a search phrase into Netflix search window and crash. I hadn't seen a crash on the Fox News pages though and they are rich content.
    Firefox wasn't doing this before the 8.0.1 update (but I can't distinguish this event from the update of Flash to 11.1.102)
    I do know that Firefox is virtually unusable (and I'm in Safari at this moment).
    I suppose its possible that something on the Mac changed (firmware) but why isn't there a problem with Safari then?
    Its not like I have time for a full fledged debug of another software application!!! I don't (and I AM a professional software developer that develops on ALL the platforms/OS including OSX all versions, Windows back to XP, and Linux most flavors and I'm a Qt expert also)
    I've NEVER had this problem before. At first I was leaning towards the Flash update. But now I'm not sure.
    If someone would suggest a progression of moves to isolate this issue, I'll take that much time to troubleshoot this. I can't quite believe that more people aren't having this problem.
    ok.. I'll start with disabling plugins. Then I'll start backing up to previous versions, starting with Flash, then Firefox as these were the latest 2 updates.

    I'm going to back up to Firefox 7 next. I'm getting the drift that 8.0.1 and/or flash on 8.0.1 are unstable.
    I'll let you know if that solves this problem.
    NOPE. This had no effect.

  • Installer not installing older versions

    I have several versions of a utility built with Lab Windows CVI (NOT LabView) and I want to allow the users to install older versions when ever they want.
    They can't!!!!!!!
    I have older already release versions that I want users to install, when do I need to change to make an older version install over a newer version?????? Is it something in setup.ini?
    This has become critical on one computer where the Add/Remove Programs no longer lists this utility. I cannot uninstall the newer version so that I can install the older version. Any ideas what to do about this?
    I can't even install the same version, so I had to build a new version (I consider it a fake version, because it is only to uninstall the latest version). I installed this fake version, and I was then able to remove the "latest" version and install the older version.
    So, I have 3 questions:
    1)  How can I change my builds to allow any version to be installed on top of any other version?
    2) How can I fix or uninstall a version that is not in the Add/Remove Programs?
    3) How can I change the installer of already built and released version (some ini file or something) to allow it to install on newer versions?

    Hey Ken,
    I'm curious as to what's happening that won't let your users use an older version of the program--do they see an error message of some kind? Generally, as long as the CVI Runtime Engine on the target machine is the same version or newer than the engine the executable was targeted for, it will work. Here's a KnowledgeBase about that: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/7F61479A2FD8331D86257257007F5F1B?OpenDocument
    Starting in CVI 2012, you can force an executable to use a specific version of the Runtime Engine, and install multiple versions of the RTE on the same machine, as seen in this CVI help file: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370051V-01/cvi/usermanual/sidebysideoverview/
    So, to answer your questions:
    1. Changing builds to allow any version to be installed: You should only need to have the newest version of the CVI Runtime installed on the user's machine. So if the user has at some point installed the newer version of the utility, they will have that RTE version. You could also rebuild your older versions to include the newest version of the Runtime Engine. The Runtime Engine is backwards-compatible with executables that were built to target older versions of the RTE.
    2. How can I fix or uninstall a version that is not in Add/Remove Programs: It's unusual for the distribution to not make an entry in Add/Remove Programs. What version of CVI did you create these distributions with, and do the applications appear in the Start menu? You might check the application directory (Most likely C:\Program FIles\<Your Application>, and see if an uninstaller exists there. For older versions of CVI, we included an uninstall utility in the program directory. There should be no problem with having multiple versions of your program installed, though.
    3. How can I change the installer to install on newer versions: Once a distribution kit has been made, it's not possible to change which version of the Runtime Engine is included with that distribution. If you have access to the source files, you can of course create a new distribution which includes that RTE.
    I hope this helps, and please let us know if you have any further questions on this issue!

  • Can't install latest Flash version v11.6

    Failed install of latest Adobe Flash on Mac OS 10.8.3   Installer says to "quit Safari" but Safari is NOT open.  I normally use Firefox of Google Chrome.  Please help.

    *** PROBLEM SOLVED! ***  
    I have solved the problem, at least on my system.
    After rebooting did NOT solve the problem, I figured out the solution by quickly realizing which programs I run on my Mac (on which Flash would not install) and on my wife's Mac (on which Flash installed just fine).
    And, after doing so, and also thinking about the types of programs that might use some Safari or other browser code, I found the "culprit", which was/is FIPLAB's otherwise excellent MenuTab Pro for Facebook, and which runs automatically, by default, on my Mac (but not also on my wife's Mac).
    And when I closed MenuTab Pro, Adobe Flash installed perfectly.  And then I could restart MenuTab Pro.  So, as Inspector Clouseau used to say, "Problem Sol-ved"!  
    Question for bigDuh (the original poster of this problem):  Are you too running a FIPLAB program?  If so, does the above solution work for you too?
