New laptop; flash player won't work

Got new laptop, came with Flash player 8.0.22.0 installed. Go
to a web page, says I need flash player. Ran the tests on adobe
site, failed. Listed in add/remove programs, try to uninstall,
needs file install_flash_player_active_x.msi. Not on laptop. Tried
downloading, needs ver 8.0.22.0 of that file, can't find. Tried
upgrading to new version, still no luck. HELP!!!

Hi,
I hope you have completed Flash Player installation. The following page has step-by-step information: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header
Ensure that you have completed the installation.
If you have completed installation, ensure that you disabled ActiveX Filtering:

I'm sorry. I was hoping it would work for you. I have to delete it about
once a day and reinstall it. It is really getting on my nerves. You are
talking about deleting and reinstalling right? Sorry I'm not in the forum
I'm just replying from my e-mail.

It started when I tried to upgrade current flash player and it said I needed to uninstall current version, which I did, and then it wouldn't download the current one giving me the not supported story! Please help!!!!!!

Hi Andy, that is correct, they don't support PPC Macs anymore.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):

Download this if you haven't...
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!

IE 11--Flash Player won't work

I have just installed Internet explorer 11, and my flash player won't work. I have uninstalled and re-installed it, and unchecked Active-X, and enabled shockwave. Any suggestions please?????

I could not get this problem solved. Uninstalled IE 11, and reinstalled IE9, and things are working fine.

Flash player won't work after a successful download

About my Mac:
OS X version 10.8.4
1.3 GHz
Safari: version 6.0.5
I have installed and unistalled flash player several times, and even restarted my computer. I followed all the steps to do so correctly, but the Flash Player won't work at all. Youtube and other websites give me error messages when I try to watch a video. They say "missing plug-in".
I really can't seem to find the problem.
(For what this info is worth: I just got my computer a couple days ago)

How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
Give that a shot.

Flash player won't work and new one won't install

My adobe flash player is not working, when I tried to download the latest flash player it would not install which means I cannot download a file i need from the transfer email program which requires the flash player. I have gone to the web site and went through the suggested routine of making sure things are enabled. Still no Luck. Need help!

What is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?
What exactly means "not working"?
What exactly means "cannot"?

Now that I have installed OSX Lion, my flash player won't work.

After I installed OSX Lion a few days ago my flash player suddenly stopped working. It won't let me update (it says I have the newest version) and when say, I try to watch a YouTube video a little box comes up over the player with settings and the "allow" button but no matter if I use the trackpad or the keyboard I can't select anything.
It's getting really annoying because I can't play games, watch videos or video share online anymore and I have no idea how to fix it.
Is it just something that will be stuck until Adobe releases a version that isn't beta for OSX 10.7?

This allows me to watch videos which is great but still when I try to play any flash games or enable a webcam on something other than iChat, Skype or Photobooth the dialog box comes up and even using tab and space bar like Adobe suggests doesn't seem to work. :-/
Glad to be able to watch videos again though

Flash Player won't work following malware removal - help!

I removed some malware using malwarebytes, which I thought was the end of my problem, but in fact it has opened up a bigger one, in that Flash Player has stopped working. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing - now have version 10.2.153.1 - but no success. Kids didn't mind when they couldn't access their online homework; not so happy now they can't play their games either. I've looked at other discussions for a solution, but nothing quite fits this problem. Any help gratefully accepted.
I can follow instructions but I'm not techie, so any replies need to be idiot-friendly, thanks.

Have just spotted your post about the "kill-bit" http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049 - sounds remakably like my problem so will check it out when I get home this evening. Just one question though - is there any point in first trying to do a system restore to a point prior to the malware removal, or would I be wasting my time?

Flash Player won't work on any browser! Help!

Hi!
I can't get any videos to play in any browser (Internet explorer, Chrome or Firefox). I can only play videos from Youtube and Netflix but no other videos or rich media content works.
I have literally tried everything that is recommended on the Flash Player Help page.
I've updated and re-installed Flash Player a million times.
I've updated and re-installed all my web browsers.
I enabled and disabled Active-X.
I enabled Flash Player on Chrome through chrome://plugins
I disabled background apps.
I turned off my firewall.
I checked for viruses.
And I googled the problem on a ton of other sites, followed other users' instructions to fix the issue, and still no luck.
This is my system:
Windows 8
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3317U CPU @ 1.7GHz 1.70GHz
64-bit Operating System x64 based processor.
I need Flash Player to do assignments online and I haven't been able to do them all week. Please help ASAP!
Thank you!

As above, have gone through a number of browsers and tried all of the fixes listed on any webpage I can find. Always the same outcome, video plays for a few minutes (occasionally seconds) and then green screen/jumbled audio
Have tried Chrome, IE, Firefox and Opera, all with the same results.
Laptop is brand spanking new, out of the box less than two days, so far I've only installed the latest Nvidia drivers 347.09 and Avast.
System is:
Asus ROG G751JT
Windows 8.1 (fully updated)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4710HQ CPU @ 2.5GHz 2.49GHz
16gb RAM
Nvidia GTX 970m

Flash Player won't work on Powebook G4 version 10.5.8

Hi,
Am about to sell on my Powerbook G4 however i'm unable to use iPlayer/Youtube. I've gone on the FlashPalyer site and downloaded the PowerPC version but it doesn't work. Can someone advise what the correct version I need is ? The version I tried was : "Flash Player 10.1.102.64".
Hope someone can assist..

Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
There is this Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862 - this gets FP to tell web sites you are running a newer version than you really are. The hack gets around web sites that don't really need a new version but think they know best. If they really do require it then this hack doesn't work. It isn't clear to me since you are selling this G4 why you are suddenly concerned about being able to play YouTube etc. Even if you get the hack to work, a G4 is rapidly ageing and a person buying it won't be able to do these advanced web things for long anyway. I also don't know if I would want to buy a computer where people had been installing hacks. I guess it is buyer beware but still...

Flash player won't work IE - Windows 7

@@Since I installed a new graphic card, Flash player keeps giving troubles (in both IE and Firefox).
First the problem was this:
- I had to reïnstall Flash each time I rebooted my computer.
Then I tried to fix this using a program provided by Adobe (SubinAcl), which should have resolved this problem. However, the problem got worse instead. Now the problem is this:
- Flash won't work at all.
I did almost every action found on the internet for this problem:
Reïnstalling Flash, seems to work perfectly
- Flash player is enabled via 'manage add-ons'
- DirectX filtering is disabled at all times
- The last programm installed according to my control panel even is Flash Player 15
- As said, I installed a programm provided by Adobe, but this even made the problem worse
But, if I do the Flash check of Adobe, it sais there is no Flash player
So everything seems to say, there is Flash player installed, however, I still can't view Flash content. Very, very annoying. Please help me with this.
Greetings, Gerjan

Disc that needs flash player won't work

I have a disc that goes with my textbook for class that
requires the use of the flash player. I bought a new computer for
school that has Windows Vista. I installed the flash player 9, but
the disc still won't play. The flash player works for sites on the
internet, but not for the disc. I tried it on an older computer
that had flash player 7 and it worked fine. But, I heard the Flash
Player 7 won't work with Vista. Is there anything that I can do
about this. Buying a computer was a waste of money if I can't use
it for school - which is why I bought it.

Adobe Flash Player Won't work!

I am trying to use Adobe Flash Player on my account on me and my brother's computer. We have Windows 7. My brother's account's Flash Player works fine on his, but my account, no matter what I do, won't let player work. I thought it had something to do with our antivirus program, Kaspersky PURE 3.0, but turning it off or temporarily disabling it doesn't seem to help at all. Please help me ASAP, thanks!

Sorry I didn't explain that. "Won't Work" means that when I try to play a game on the internet that uses Flash Player, it won't start (usually just has a black window where the game should start up).
