  • I am having problems downloading Flash Player on a Mac

    I am having problems downloading / updating Flash Player on a Mac.  Installer runs to 30 and freezes.

    Hi, First since you have the 64bit Windows, you need to use the 32bit browser as Adobe does not support Flash Player
    for the 64bit.
    Are you using any other browser?  Here are the instructions for Internet Explorer.
    Download the Adobe Uninstaller to your Desktop: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Download the Installer and SAVE it to your Desktop:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
    Before you start you need to read over the Uninstall info and follow the Security settings, making sure no applications
    are running that uses Flash. Anti-Virus/Spyware and Firewalls can interfere and so I would follow these steps after you
    know how to disable these. Also you may benefit by reading this also:
    http://go.adobe.com/kb/ts_tn_19166_en-us  You don't need to follow all of these, just be aware of what my apply to you.
    1. After the Uninstaller and Installer are on your Desktop, then disconnect from the Internet.
    2. Disable your Anti-Virus/Spyware and Firewall programs. (If you are using just the Windows Firewall, that is ok)
    3. Make sure all apps that use Flash are disabled and check the system tray for that also.
    4. Close All browsers and RUN the Uninstaller. When finished, Reboot(restart) your computer. When fully Rebooted, Reboot again( to clear out old files) When fully Rebooted,
    5. RUN the Installer and when finished, Reboot ONCE.
    6. Re enable your Anti-Virus/Spyware and Firewall and connect back to the Internet.
    Go to this test site: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    If you have any questions after reading or before you start, please ask.
    Thanks,

  • I am having trouble downloading flash player on windows vista,can anyone help

    I've tried everything installed, uninstalled, restarted, downloaded,enabled,prompt,changed adminstrator.I need help

    Hi, ok that's good. Since you don't have any Anti-Virus program installed, you need to go ahead and Install the AVG, just
    follow the instructions. Then be sure to Restart your computer.
    Download the Uninstaller for Flash Player here and SAVE it to your Desktop:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for Firefox:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
    Before you begin:
    Using IE, go to Tools, Internet Options and under the Security Tab make sure it is set to Medium for the Internet Zone.
    Disconnect from the Internet, check the system tray and make sure to disable any applications that use Flash. Refer to the Uninstaller instructions.
    You should have an AVG icon in your system tray. Open the user interface & double click on the Resident Shield and UN tick the "option Resident Shield active", and SAVE the changes. Next find the LinkScanner, double click on it and UN tick the "Enable AVG Search-Shield" and the "Enable Active Surf-Shield" SAVE the Changes.
    Don't connect back to the Internet until that step is listed.
    Now Run the Uninstaller from your Desktop, when finished, Restart your computer. Then Restart again (to clear old files)
    Now Run the Installer for IE and when finished, Restart your computer Once.
    Then Run the Installer for FF and when finished, Restart your computer Once.
    Now Re-Enable the AVG steps you took to Disable.
    Now you will connect back to the Internet.
    Then go here to the test site:http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    You can check your websites. Post back when you are all finished.
    If you have any questions before or after, just post.
    Thanks,

  • Help, we're having problems with Flash Player

    Hi.
    Up until yesterday we had flash player and it was working normally.  Yesterday when we went onto IE8 we didn't have it any longer. Me and my mun tried downloading flash player for Windows XP on Internet Explorer again.  We untick the box saying to add a google toolbar which is optional. We click the download button at the bottom of the page and on the download page a blue box is meant to come up involving ActiveX.  The page comes up with the blue box but then the page goes off and a new page coming up with a cross in a red circle and next to it, it says "Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer" "A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused Internet Explorer to close this webpage.  Below this it comes up with a list of options:
    Go to your home page
    Try to return to Adobe.com
    More Information
    We have tried clicking "Try to return to Adobe.com" many times and repeating the same process but the same thing still happens.
    We don't know what to do as without Flash Player there is a limited number of things we can do. We have tried altering some of our settings but still no luck.  We are going round and round in circles.

    Hello, Sorry you are having problems. I would like you to go to this Adobe test site with IE8. Can you see the animation and what version of Flash Player does it say you have?
    If you use any other browser, test with it too.
    Are you the Administrator and are you using that Account? It is necessary when Installing Flash Player.
    After that you can download the Uninstall and SAVE it to your Desktop:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then download and SAVE the Installer for Internet Explorer to your Desktop:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
    For now  just put these on your Desktop and then to the test above and let me know.
    Also What Anti-Virus do you have?
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a leter version installed.
    Texas Mac Man's Flash hack/post...
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3599648?tstart=0
    Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862
    Might be later ones around also... saw 11.3 I think.
    (If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.
    You should also consider the Shockwave Player, which displays Web content that has been created by Adobe Director, much used for multimedia: For PPC Macs:  http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
    See in each Browser which version of Flash it thinks it has...

    Then Test Adobe Shockwave & Flash Players...

  • I am trying to download Adobe Flash player and it is asking me to close Mozilla Firefox, how do I do this?

    I am trying to download Adobe Flash Player and it is asking me to close Mozilla Firefox before it will download. How do I do this?

    Save the Flash installer to the desktop and close Firefox via File > Exit or Firefox > Exit.
    Then run the Flash installer with a double lick on that desktop icon.<br />
    You may need to use "Run as Administrator" via the right-click context menu of that file.

  • I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated.

    Model Name: iMac
      Model Identifier: iMac12,1
      Processor Name: Intel Core i5
    I reset my apple ID password here on the website, but my computer isn't recognizing my new password. what should I do? I just need to update my adobe flash player but it keeps asking me for my password but won't take my new password I just updated.

    "If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
    Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
    As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
    I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
    Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.

  • Problems downloading flash player (Mac)

    I am having problems downloading the newest version of adobe flash player on my mac. I am using Safari and did the usual procedure (downloading the .dmg file, launching it, password... etc.) and the download gets stuck at 25% for hours. I tried to restart the computer, erase the file and re download the .dmg, doesn't seem to work out...

  • Problems downloading Flash Player 11

    Over the past week+, I have received a message stating that I needed to download Flash Player 11. Several attempts were &quot;successful,&quot; but I still keep receiving the message that I need to download.
    Also, on some attempts, I am told that Internet Explorer needs to be turned off. It is turned off, but the download will not continue and therefore becomes &quot;unsuccessful.&quot;
    What am I doing wrong? What's going on?

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    You can download offline installer for Adobe Flash Player from here : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header

  • Constantly having to download Flash Player

    How many times do I have to download this thing? I download it, install it and yet everytime I have to opportuinity to view something, &quot;it&quot; says I have to download Flash Player ... AGAIN! Very frustrating. Windows 7.

    This is a known problem with Internet Exploder 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Adobe Flash Player Settings window keeps popping up

    Flash Player version 11.7.700.225
    Mac OS 10.6.8 (64 bit)
    Browser  Safari
    When playing news clips I keep getting the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window. And the Allow and Deny buttons don’t work so I can’t get rid of the window without closing the video.
    What can I do to correct this?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    Sorry to hear that.
    The Settings window might pop-up due to insufficient memory allocation, camera/mic adjustments etc.
    Can you please look at this page: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html ?
    Changing the setting might help you.
    With regards,

    First off what Browser are you using and what version of flashplayer are you using and did you offline download the flashplayer or did you webinstall it? I seen where webinstall caused more problem then offline download install. Maybe you should do that and see if the problem doesn't go away.
