Hello,
If you want to use the older version in Google Chrome, you'll need to disable the embedded version first. To disabled the embedded version do the follow the instructions here: Enable system Flash Player in Google Chrome | Windows | Mac

Sick and tired of having to reinstall Adobe Flash Player everytime I restart my computer.

I'm running the Latest Flash player 11.2on Windows 7 64bit with IE 9 and McAfee antivirus and this problem has been going on for at least a year. I keep hoping that a new version of flash player will solve the problem but after a year I am just sick of problems with Flash. (I hate Steve Jobs but I'm beginning to share his view of Flash.) Every time I start my laptop I have to reinstall Flash to view any videos or flash content on the web. I always get a message that I need to update my flash player and I have already updated it a million times. After I update it works until I restart the machine. I searched for solutions on Google, Adobe Forum and tried all the different suggestions but the problem continues. I've tried using other Antivirus programs but the problem continues. It doesn't matter if I use the 32 bit or 64 bit IE. It's always the same problem. Why can't Adobe find a solution to this problem? People have been complaining about the problem since Flash Player 9. I've experienced the problem since Flash player 10. I'm wondering if Adobe is doing it intentionally just to increase the number of downloads for the Adobe Flash player and every time I have to deselect the stupid Google bar. Maybe Adobe is just trying to make more money off Google by forcing me to reinstall two or three times a day?

Sorry, I should have explained more. You do indeed want to use the 64 bit installer, it's just that this installer actually installs both the 32 and 64-bit versions of Flash Player. The 32 bit version of Flash Player is kept in the syswow64\macromed\flash folder and the 64 bit version is in system32\macromed\flash.
I'm a bit concerned that this might not help, given that you see the same behavior for both 32 and 64 bit versions of IE, but doing a clean install can't hurt and should hopefully fix the install log issue I see in the reports you sent me.
If you can, please generate another set of logs after doing the uninstall and folder/file deletions.

Every time need to reinstall Adobe Flash Player

Hi All,
When I start my laptop and goe to any website, it is asking me to install flash player. Many times I have uninstalled and reinstalled it but every time it is asking me to install adobe flash player. I am using internet explorer as browser and windows 7 operating system. As per one post I have completed the below activity. Still I am not successful.
We're working on addressing these issues with our installers, but in the meantime these issues can be fixed using the following steps:
1. Install Flash Player
2. Download the SubInACL Installer from Microsoft
3. Install SubInACL and note the install location
4. Download the attached "reset_fp11.bat.zip" file and extract it to the SubInACL folder from the previous step. At this point, subinacl.exe and reset_fp11.bat will be in the same folder. Please note that you might not see the file extensions unless you've made them visible.
5. If you are on Vista or Windows 7, right click "reset_fp11.bat" and select "Run as Administrator". If you are on XP, please make sure you are using an Administrator level account before double clicking.
6. You'll see a window appear and text go by, this should only take a few seconds to complete.
7. If you were unable to install Flash Player in step 1, do so now.
8. Restart your computer and verify that Flash is working correctly.

Please guide me.
Thanks.

Some malicious site try to get you to install malware by saying yo have to update Flash.
Only update Flash via Adobe's site.

In System Preferences they may be an entry for Flash in Lion. I do not remember. There is for Yosemite

Run the uninstaller from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
Download the latest Flash Player 11.9 from
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

Cannot reinstall Adobe Flash Player on Macbook OSX 10.5.8

I was trying to watch videos on facebook but I was unable to due to the fact that it said that adobe flash player was out of date. I therefore uninstalled adobe flash player and tried to reinstall it from adobe's website. When I try to reinstall it, the icon bounces at the bottom of the page but does not open. Everytime I have done this, it says the "application not responding". Does anyone have any idea what is going on, and if anyone has an answer to this problem?

FlashPlayer can be difficult ot updates. In the document below some of the files specifics will not apply to your computer, but the general procedure probably applies.
*Flash Player for PPC Macs*
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.
To check your installed version of FlashPlayer - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
Download the version you need from Adobe.
To install:
1) Run Disk Utility and verify your hard drive. If the hard drive reports errors then it will need repairing first (another topic). If it verifies, run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
2) Back up your hard drive, ideally to a bootable clone. A bootable clone will allow you to restore your hard drive to its original state should something go wrong.
3) Quit all applications to ensure nothing is actively using Flash. You can even do the next step while booted to Safe Mode to make sure.

[Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107394]
4) Run the uninstaller application. Adobe says, "Adobe recommends that you restart your computer before you install a different version of the player."
5) Run the installer application from the .dmg file you got from the second download.
6) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your computer. this is important when installing anything from Adobe.
7) Restart your computer.

Every time i turn off my computer and back on i have to unistall and reinstall adobe flash player

Everytime i turn off my computer and back on i have to unistall and reinstall adobe flash player11.8 . I have tryed everything i could find on the internet, nothing helps. please help. I wish i could contact adobe directly but don't know how. Been trying to fix it for a week.

Download and save the uninstaller Save it to your downloads folder - DO NOT run it yet.
Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking one (or both) of the following links and selecting "Save Target as"(IE) or "Save Link as"(other browsers).
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Save the installer(s) to your downloads folder - DO NOT run it(them) yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE you run anything else, locate and run the uninstaller.
When it finishes, run the installer(s) to put Flash Player on your system again.
If you use IE see also:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer

Having to reinstall Adobe Flash Player over and over and over....,

I've ignored this problem for a while now and I really want to get this over with. It's really starting to piss me off.
So I have to download adobe flash player over and over because Steam tells me "You will need to Install the latest Flash plugin to view this page properly" (I'd like flash player to work so I could watch trailers from the Steam window instead of searching up trailers on my browser.) So I do and maybe in about a few days I have to reinstall another flash player. But what's weird is when Steam's flash player doesn't work I can watch Youtube videos just find on Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Try uninstalling it this way first.

Hello sunnyskoolof13, Below is some information on the brccmctl file you list. You must have a Brother printer of other Brother device.
brccmctl.exe is a process from Brother Industries, Ltd.. It can be found in the location of C:\Program Files\brother\controlcenter3.
brccmctl.exe is a potential security risk which can be modified maliciously by spyware.
brccmctl.exe should be disabled and removed, if it was attacked and brought you brccmctl.exe error.
Just go to the Control Panel, Programs and Features, ( if using Windows 7) If using Windows XP, go to Control Panel, Add and Remove Programs, and locate and remove this application.
If your Brother Device stops working, you may need to reinstall the application.
Please click the White Kudos star on the left, to say thanks.

I can't update or reinstall adobe flash player on my mac 10.9.5.

I am having trouble updating or re-installing my adobe flash player on apple laptop. I checked preference on safari to ensure there were block on plug-in. The update says it has failed or keeps asking me to close safari.

There are some dashboard widgets and things like Skype that keep Flash Player in-use on the latest MacOS.
If you go to the Apple Icon in the upper left of the screen, then to Force-Quit, you should get a list of apps that you can quit.

I have been unable to reinstall adobe flash player on windows server2012

Followed all of the recomended IE configurations and uninstall and reinstall to no avail.

What exactly means "unable"?

After reinstalling FFox and Adobe Flash Player, why will a certain company webpage will not load, but it does in IE.

For some reason a certain corporate company web site will not load on my desktop PC. The page is gray and white with some headings and a circle in the middle that goes round and round. I previously (some months ago) was able to access the site (and have for years). I am running Windows 7. I have cleared my cache, reinstalled FireFox, reinstalled Adobe Flash Player (even tried downgrading to Flash version 10). If I use IE, the site page loads with all of the graphics, etc. just fine, I have all of the same FF features on my laptop. The site opens up fine on my laptop. What's next?

Is there content loaded on that page via JavaScript or a plugin like Flash?
If the Flash plugin is active the you should get the Flash context menu if you right-click that area.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Adobe flash player does not work on Firefox, but does on Wind Exp

I have reinstalled Adobe Flash Player many times and also reinstalled Firefox, but flash player does not work. Every tim I try to play something it tells me to install the latest version of flash player. Flash player works fine on on Windows Explorer

IE uses a different version of Flash (ActiveX) than other browsers use, you need to install the Plugin version of Flash.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

Adobe Flash Player (Vers. 14.0.0.176) not working in Safari or Firefox on Mac (Mavericks; Vers. 10.9.4). What do I do?!

Hi all,
This is my first post to the forum. I've been directed here because I'm having issues with video streaming/playback (in particular, YouTube) on the Safari and Firefox browsers on my Mac. First, a little bit of information:
My computer:
I have a 2012 iMac with a 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7 processor, 32 GB of memory and a 3TB Apple "Fusion" solid state hard drive. The software version my Mac is currently running is 10.9.4, on the Mavericks OS, as shown in the subject box.
My Issue:
I've noticed, in the past week or so, that video streaming and playback, on YouTube in particular, are either (a) slow or (b) not loading whatsoever. In YouTube, three things become apparent almost immediately: (1) the video (advert or no advert) simply does not load, with a black screen that turns into a grainy screen after a while with the message "An Error Occurred;" (2) the suggested videos on the side panel (i.e., to the right) do not load properly. The thumbnails of the videos simply do not load; and finally, (3) the comments also appear to experience issues from loading. I've attached screenshots to document this.
N.B. Comments do appear, along with the side panel thumbnails once YouTube has given up on trying to load the video
So, What have I done about it?
Everything I can do, to be honest. I've:
(1) Checked preferences in Safari (i.e., plugins are installed correctly)
(2) Cleared Cache in Safari
(3) Deleted "All Site Data and Settings" in the Flash Player section of my System Preferences
(4) Uninstalled Adobe Flash Player completely
(5) Reinstalled Adobe Flash Player
(6) Contacted Apple
(7) Checked Preferences in Safari again (i.e., plugins are installed correctly)
(8) Cleared Cache in Safari again
(9) Reset Safari
(10) Deleted "All Site Data and Settings" in the Flash Player section of my System Preferences
(11) Uninstalled Adobe Flash Player
(12) Undertook a "Clean Install" of Adobe Flash Player, following instructions
And alas, I'm in the forum! May I also add, that I have also scanned my hard drive for any corruption that may be present, generating a negative result. I just do not know what to do at this stage. I've done everything I have knowledge of in trying to resolve this issue.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Kieran

Just for further confirmation that the installation went through succesfully multiple times:

Adobe flash player not working for youtube

Hi,
While I was trying to install Adobe Flash Player for Microsoft Internet Explorer, the installation process got stuck half way and I tried to terminate the installation. But I had difficulty even terminating the installation process and IE and my computer crashed together. Normally I use Firefox to surf the internet, however after the computer crashed and when I restarted my computer, Youtube videos just couldn't be played in Firefox. What I have since done was to upgrade Firefox to 3.6.18 and I have uninstalled + reinstalled Adobe Flash Player. However that still doesn't solve the problem. The Youtube webpage only shows a black box with no control boxes. However other websites e.g. Metacafe, which uses Adobe Flash Player to play video files are working perfectly fine. This is highly puzzling to me and very frustrating. Could anyone please help me with it? .
How do I mark this thread as a question?
Now, I was reading other threads and came across 1 suggestion to change the http:// to https:// and now the youtube videos can be played. How amazing :O. But that would mean that everytime I have to manually change the URL to access the video. This is so strange. Any suggestion what has happened? Thanks.

Hi, Since youtube/Google have not responded to the issue, no one knows for sure what their problem is. This is what I found and posted here last night. Then what I found and posted this morning, which you evidently found about the https.
It appears either one or both are being used to try solving the issue. It's been users coming up with these, not youtube nor Google. It effects all browsers, even Chrome. The only one I haven't seen so far is Safari. Flash Player version doesn't matter, nor Operating Systems.
From last night:
YouTube just updated their video player, so the old version could still be cached in your browser causing it to fail. I would suggest rebooting, and if that's already done then make sure your drivers are up to date.
If that does not work make sure you download the new version of flash. Posted3 hours ago
No, I had the exact same problem but it worked the second I cleared my internet cache which could have to do with what another user above said about that.
Go to tools, options, clear recent history, and only check the 'cache' option, clear now, okay, and then refresh or exit it and open it again. I didn't even have to restart my browser. I'm using firefox too, by the way. Good luck! I hope this helped! Posted 2 hours ago
From today 7/7/11:
Now youtube is having major issues as you could read from what I posted. There is nothing wrong with your computer nor Flash Player. Here is what many users are doing in addition to clearing the cache, history etc.
They are using https instead of http. So try it. Here is one that you can check to see if it works. If so, use the https until youtube/google respond.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1RiMHpUi1w
Until we hear from youtube or our own Flash Player Team, since I'm sure they are in touch with youtube, I don't know what else to do.
My guess is, that if youtube changed their video player for the videos, then that would be a factor. Right now it is a wait and see.
Thanks,
