Problems Upgrading Flash Player

Hey so I saw someone else is having the same problem with their facebook flash player. I keep installing the Flash Player and it is still not recognizing it in Safari. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and everything and still nothing. I was able to watch the Youtube Videos on youtube.com but now some are saying I need to upgrade my flash player, and I go through the process again that still doesn't work. Someone help!? Im desperate.

Check Safari > Preferences > Extensions. If you have any installed, turn that OFF, quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If it's not an extensions issue, try Safari in another user account. Same problems there can be an indication there's a problem with the startup disk.
If that is the case, from your admin account launch Disk Utility located in /Applications/Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If the disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
If the startup disk appears to be ok, booting in Safe Mode deletes system caches thay may help. A Safe Mode boot takes longer than a normal boot so be patient. Once you see the Desktop, click the Apple menu icon top left in the screen. From the drop down menu click Restart.
Launch Safari. Try a video.

Problems with flash Player

So I'm having a problem with flash player, and was wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing, or might be able to help.
- Upgraded 2 computers to snow leopard, macbook pro laptop, and mac Pro tower (intel proc).
- Laptop has no problems, everything renders fine, and without any difficulty.
- Mac Pro doesn't display any dynamic data, text fields show up blank, some flash player controls don't work, brightcove player won't load completely... things are just not working right.
- Main browser is Safari, but same problem exists in Camino, Firefox, etc...
- I've had Safari Stand installed, but have since removed it.
- I've removed GROWL notifications completely
- I've got debug and developer menus turned on (but have that with the laptop also.)
Please see the screenshot attached. This graph should have text data on it showing the x/y axis, the key, as well as data when you mouse over each block, but doesn't show anything.
The second screen shot shows a brightcove player from our website... There should have full controls at the bottom, and nothing shows up. If I right-click, and go to 'view full screen', I can't then get out of full screen by clicking escape key on the keyboard, I have to use any player controls, or right-click again, and hit 'exit full screen'.
Anyone have any suggestions? It's something to do with my computer, rather than snow leopard, because flash works fine on my laptop, but not on the desktop. Any help is really appreciated !

Hi!
I reached your post because I was having the exact same issues as you and I found a fix that worked for me! The problem is a font issue: I logged in with the guest account that had no users font installed and flash was working fine, so I logged back into my account and moved all the fonts in my 'User>Library>Fonts' folder in a folder in the desktop. Then I closed and reopened Safari and Flash was working!
In the end the problem was with a version of Arial that I had in my users' font folder: I deleted just that, put my users' font back in the folder and the problem disappeared.
I hope it hepls!
best

Download problems with Flash player

Trouble with installation of of latest version of Flash Player V15.0.0.189. I am running Mac version 10.10 with Safari version 8.0. The installation gets to 50% and indicates download is complete, then it goes
to 75% of the installation and then gives an Error message: unable to proceed with installation. I have spent 2 1/2 hrs going thru all of the troubleshooting items including an uninstall of the old version of
flash player. now I have no flash player. This is not the first time that I have run into this problem and given up with completing the download. by deleting the old flash player I am now unable to use a number of my applications. It is about time Adobe provides its users with tech support. I hope someone out there has a solution to my problem, because I do not expect Adobe to help. I have been a user of Adobe products for many years with illustrator, photoshop, acrobat pro and user of reader and flash player. At this point I am not a happy camper with Adobe.

Isn't that rich, 40 Woody? I been getting upgrade notices for the last month, and every time I try to upgrade Flash Player, I get this message, "Acrobat Reader could not open AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_15_Itrosxd_aaa_alh-4.dmg' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ( for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
This looks to me like a power play to get me and everyone else to purchase that damn subscription concept which popped into existence about a year and a half AFTER I paid for the entire CS6 Suite. I wish I could send them a bill for my time lost trying to figure this out. Just glad I don't have any deadlines.
So, now what… tech support?

Problem keeping Flash Player 10 active.

I am having similar problems as the other people posting. Most of the Adobe responses seem to need more information regarding systems and software. Here are my experiences. Like Gina in an earlier post, I had no problems with Flash Player until the February, 2009 Microsoft Tuesday security, O.S. and Office updates. I could no longer view Adobe Flash content. I tried all of the suggestions from this and other Forums including Adobe's Flash Player Support site. This included Permission settings, registry tweeks, copying and pasting files, using the seperate uninstall file for F.P. 10, installing from Macromed file under System32 file location- running as administrator, uninstalling from Control Panel and re-installing from Adobe F.P. site and Macromed file, Managing Add Ons tool in Internet Explorer.
My computer is a laptop with 2 gig of memory with Windows Vista SP1 operating system. I have McAfee Security Center, latest version with current updates as my security system. I connect to the internet via 56k modem. My ISP is MSN with the latest version of MSN Explorer (9. something). My browser is Internet Explorer. Versions 7 and 8 have the same conditional problems.
At the same time that I started having problem with Flash Player, after the Microsoft 2/2009 updates, I started to get error messages saying MSN/(or) Internet Explorer has stopped working which would force a close of those programs. This would occur while visiting sites with active content, especially newspaper electronic sites. My only work around to the Flash Player problem has been to uninstall MSN and Flash Player, re-install Flash Player and then restart the computer to set up the registry. Then, re-install MSN. This will work for three to seven days. Then, I will not be able to view all Flash content after that period of time. A lot of red boxes with red X's. Clicking on these X's and then choosing the SETTINGS option, I can get to camera and microphone permissions but not any security or history permissions. Flash Player is still listed as a program with Active X in my Control Panel Under 'PROGRAMS'.
My computer, operating system, security programs, ISP have not changed since encountering the Flash Player problems. I have upgraded from Internet Explorer 7 to 8 hoping that this would correct the problem. It did not. Hopefully there is enough information here for someone to be able to find a solution.

See if any of this helps

I can't upgrade Flash Player

I can't upgrade Flash Player on my Mac. I have Mac OS 10.5.8 and flash player 10.3.183.86. What is the problem?

The problem is that Mac OS 10.5.8 does not support any newer Flash Player version.

I have been trying for days to upgrade Flash Player on my Mac (Mac OS 10.8.3, Safari 6.0.4

I have been trying for days to upgrade Flash Player on my Mac (Mac OS 10.8.3, Safari 6.0.4, current Flash Player version 11.6.602.180), but each time that I download the installer and run it, there is a "General installation error" soon after starting the "Installing" phase.
Each time, the installer completes the "Creating Install" and "Downloading" phases, but soon after starting the "Installing" phase, an error occurs "Error: General installation error" and Safari is opened tohttp://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/completion/aih/?exitcode=30&type=inst all&appid=500
Is it unusual for another "Install Adobe Flash Player" app to open? When the "Installing" phase begins, a second flash installer box icon appears in the dock, but then closes immediately and then the first installer shows the "Error: General installation error" page.

Try this installer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg

I have problem with Flash Player. Full screen doesn't work correctly. Turning off hardware acelleration helps but I want this option to work.

Problem exist only on YouTube. When i want get full screen, I have black screen with audio. If I click few times full screen button it helps, but I want to go to full screen by one click.
If i turn off hardware acceleration everything is ok but vids looks terrible.
I have this problem with Flash Player 10. No 9 works good, but some websites wants no. 10

Generaly FP works, but problem is that i must press few times full screen button. Now i have turn off hardware accelleration, but movies are quite bad.
I have already installed newest graphic drivers but it didn't help.
Everything was good unless Flash Player and Mozilla notificated that update is necessary :<

Problem installing Flash Player ActiveX

hi,
i try to install the IE version of the Flash Player, but it says me, that I'm trying to install an older version and I should go download the new setup file but that I just downloaded from here. The problem is, Flash Player is not even installed and ever Flash website tells me to install the flash player.
Is there a way to force the setup to ignore this warning?

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Can't upgrade Flash Player to 10.0.32.18

Hello,
Has anyone had any issues when trying to upgrade Flash Player to the latest version? The installer seems to hang and never completes.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Thanks for the suggestions.
I tried to install it with all browsers closed and it still failed. I then ran the uninstall and that failed the first time but worked the second time....so i have no flash player installed atm.
I downloaded the installer again and when I click on the .pkg file the installer shows up in the dock but again nothing happens. (I also can't shutdown the machine after this happens...I have to hold the power button)
Basically since the SL update my MBP has become very unstable.
cheers

Problems installing flash player. Learner

I am experienceing problems installing flash player. I go to the adobe website and install the program and I am told it has been successfully installed. No flash player icon apppears on my desktop. When I press the windows start icon and click on "all programs" there is no evidence of the flash player. However when I click on" my computer" icon and go into uninstall/change the flash player program is there.I have spent quite some time installing, uninstalling and installing again without success
I am using windows Vista. I am also using Kaspsersky Internet security. It is a private computetr so I do not think I need administrators permission. I have tried installing flash player using both interner explorer and Mozilla firefox.Please can anyone help. Many thanks.

Shane, since you must be having problems getting a thread started, I'll just go ahead and try to help you here.
Use IE and go to Help and click on About Internet Explorer. It should tell you sp1 or sp2.
Also using IE, go to Tools, click on Manage add ons and look in all add ons for Shockwave Flash Object. Let me know if it is Enabled and if it is version 10.0.45.2 or says Flash10e.ocx.
Then switch over to FF (Firefox) and find the plug-in SWF version 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is listed and Enabled.
Post this info back to me.
Thanks,

Upgraded flash player, now it won't work (Win7 64bit, IE9)

I upgraded Flash Player last night, and now it won't work, period. I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling ad nauseum, but to no avail. Based on some of the troubleshooting information, it looks like it's not appearing in IE's list of add-ons, but I don't know how to fix it so that it does - the install insists it's successful every time.
Anyone know what's going on?

If I go to the versions page, it wants me to install Adobe Flash (again), regardless of how many times I've run the installation before.

Problem loading flash player...

I am running windows xp sp3 ....... I down loaded the flash player 10. 102. 64 . everything went as planned ...the only place I could find evidence that the player downloaded was by going in to the control panel and add or remove software feature. It showed that it loaded it...but showed no memory occupation. While in Control panel, I highlighted the new flash player entry. and it simply showed a link to adobe support. So, I am here trying to help solve by providing my input.
I logged on as System admin, killed the virus software processes, and downloaded it all again after having removed the previous version. Same Results
I have taken several approaches with no success...each time going into the control panel and noting the entry of the flash player 10 with no mem. size being their. I then uninstalled the thing using adobes DLM...it does say that it is installed and done...also it does remove the entry when uninstalling.
I updated my java script .....once again the same results....right now ...my computer says that the flash player is loaded no memeory occupied (via control panel) but the only thing is a link to adobe....so, has any body had this experience.

Thanks, I will revist the forum and look up the threads, I need all the help I can get, You have a great Christmas.
I too will do without streaming videos , until after the Lords bithday has been celebrated.

Hi, The Flash Player is a browser plugin, not a standalone player. There will be no size or any info in Control Panel/Add/Remove/Programs & Features.
Check a couple of recent threads or click on my name to several threads I have posted on helping users with the same issue.
Company coming in for the Christmas weekend and my time right now is limited.
On those threads you'll see the info you need.
Hope that helps,

Please Help! I tried to upgrade Flash Player, but have older computer

Please Help! -- I tried to upgrade FLASH PLAYER, but I have an older MAC laptop OS X 10.4 = Version 4.1.3 (4533.19.4).
I need to UPGRADE Flash Player; however it's not available -- Recently, I cannot watch some videos or access particular websites.
I'm a teacher, and CAN'T AFFORD to buy a new computer at this time.
> Can Adobe Corp. please help by offering an expanded range of UPGRADE support ??

Unfortunately, if you're running OS 10.4, odds are that your Mac is a PowerPC model (-About This Mac will let you know for certain), and the newest version that will run on your system is Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and 9.0.289.0 (126 MB)
That's a direct link to the download, you can right click (or control+click) and save it to your downloads folder. Expand it with Stuffit Expander and run the 10.102.64 installer.
That's the best that can be hoped for because if your Mac is PowerPC, and I suspect it is, even Apple no longer supports it since September of 2009. The next OS X version (10.5) won't run the latest Player either. You'd need an Intel Mac with 10.6.3 or newer to use Flash Player 11.8.800.94.
PowerMax does have some really good deals on "pre owned" Macs. I've bought three from them myself over the years.
