Shockware Flash is enabled but doesn't work

I'm running Windows 7, and I.E. 10. I have installed the current version (11) of Adobe Flash several times, but is never recognized. However, under "Manage Add ons" Shockwave is listed as enabled. I have reinstalled several times with no luck. I also uninstalled, then re-installed, but still Flashplayer is seen as not being installed, and will not run. Everying was O.K. until I updated to the lastest version. Can You help?
Thanks,
BillJ

Flash Player Installs but doesn't work WIN 7

It doesn't ever appear to be loaded when I look for it. Why in the world would it say that it has loaded and installed when it doesn't??
Look folks, I'm literally losing my mind here. I'm IRATE.
If you think you've seen this problem before, GUESS AGAIN. I have tried EVERY single suggestion that's on this website as well as others and NONE of it has worked. I keep seeing folks say that you have to have the 32 bit IE instead of the 64 bit. It says to check to make sure...when I look in About IE, it says 256 bit. What does that mean?? It says NOTHING about 32 bit OR 64 bit...WHICH ONE DO I HAVE??? No clarity on this site WHATSOEVER.
I've tried the uninstaller...putting it on my desktop...yadda, yadda. Restarted my comp around 20 times...nothing.
Seriously....the internet and, by extension, my computer are useless if I can't use flash. No videos, games, or anything other than text and pics. I'm 22, I'm not computer illiterate. Actually, until this...I've never had problems with computers and I've always thought of myself as fairly knowledgeable.
All I really want to do is talk to a person...but I don't want to pay $40. Someone please help me.

Hi, Please take a deep breath:-) Now I'll have questions that need answered so I can help restore your sanity/computer.
We'll just take it one step at a time.
Go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash Open Flash and post back all files listed. You didn't indicate any browser other than IE8, but if you see any NPSWF files then right click on each. Then click on Properties to obtain the version numbers.
With Windows, the default browser is the 32bit browser. You would know whether your Operating System is a 64bit or not, but we'll know after you check those files in the Flash folder. A 64bit OS will have a 64bit browser and a 32bit browser, but since Flash Player needs the 32bit browser, then you have that. If you tried using a 64bit browser(if you had a 64bit OS), you'd receive a message directing you to read about the Flash Player & the 64bit OS. Hope that explains the difference.
After the above, Using IE, go to Tools, Manage addons and under "Show"(very light text) look in all addons for Shockwave Flash Object. Is it Installed and Enabled?
Then go here and test: As soon as the site opens you should see the Flash logo animate and the version of Flash Player you have will be displayed. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Let me know on the above. (you'll be glad to know that I won't bill you $40.00:-)
Thanks,

Add-on enabled but doesn't work

Extension add-on Multi-row Bookmarks Toolbar 5.0.1 (enabled) has been working fine for many months. Today it stopped working. Tried several times restarting Firefox each time but it still wouldn't work. I removed it then re-installed and tried again but it still won't work. Each time it shows as enabled with the line count set at 5. It is very frustrating.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated..............Ralph

That is an older version which actually had been disabled but when 5.0.1 didn't work I disabled it and enabled this version and it didn't work either. I always run with the most current version and have never had a problem before with this add-on.
Thanks for helping...........Ralph

Flash drive formatted, but doesn't work anymore!

hi
I just formatted my flash in Mac-OS leopard (using utilities). But it's not detected anymore by the same mac. When i tried to use it windows, an icon appears in 'my computer', but its not accessible. It says 'Please insert a disc in the empty drive'! I used 'write zero in all....' option in Utilities/erase. Some please help me out.

Hi Ajay, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Insert the drive in your MBP and open Disk Utility. Does it show up there? If so, try formatting it again, this time without zeroing. Sounds like you want to use it on a PC too, so choose DOS.
If the drive doesn't show up in DU, try restarting the MBP. If still no luck, try PRAM Reset.

Downloaded flash, saying download but doesn't work

I've followed prompts and what would seem succesfully downloaded flash to my macbook pro mac OS X version 10.4.11, but after it says i've successfully downloaded it & i restart my computer when i go into any that requires flash it says i need to downloaded it?

Hi, I'm not sure about a Mac, but in addition to downloading any program you must Install it.
Then check in your plugins and make sure Shockwave Flash, the plugin for Flash Player is Enabled.
Make sure Flash Player is Installed and the plugin is Enabled.

The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on that wifi network

In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

I updated my iphone 5 to ios 6.0.2. my wifi says its connected but doesn't work now. It doesn't matter what wifi network I connect to. It worked before updating my phone. I can no longer use facetime or use wifi at all. I'm not sure what to do to fix it.

I'm having similar issues with my phone. I got my first iPhone recently, only had an iPod touch gen4 for a little over a year. Updated to 6.0.2 when we got the phone (iPhone 5) a few days before Christmas. When I got home on the evening of January 11, my phone would not connect the router anymore. I was able to get it to connect after resetting the phone and the router, updating the router, and manually connecting. That laste for a few minutes and then wouldn't work anymore. I live in an area with very limited service, we have a network extender installed to help, and I am barely getting a 3G signal at times.
My wife's iPad 4, my touchiPod 4, and all of our laptops are working just fine on the router. When I dropped my kid off at school today, I noticed that I am not even seeing the school network anymore from the parking lot where before I got 3 or 4 bars and could connect to their wifi when I was there. Today my phone goes back and forth between seeing my home network but not connecting, to not even seeing the network at all even from the same room that the router is in.
Hope Apple fixes this problem soon..............

Hello Vaidas Vaidas,
It sounds like you are noticing someone else is accessing your Clash of Clans data by playing the game and you have tried to reset your Apple ID password. If you are following the steps outlined in this article:

I have a VGA adapter and an iPad2. Tried projecting my iPad2 to projector using the VGA but doesn't work. Tried it with friend's iPad1 and it works. Why??

I have a VGA adapter and an iPad2. Tried projecting my iPad2 to projector using the VGA but doesn't work. Tried it with friend's iPad1 and it works. Why?? Pls help.

Yup - nothing happens. I then took the same VGA cable and plugged it into my friend's iPad1 and it worked perfectly when she opened Keynote. My understanding is that the iPad2 mirrors the entire screen, so no need to go into any specific application in order to project to the screen, right? Do I need to download any specific app or change any settings in order to be able to project the screen using VGA?
Sorry - novice at this. Not very tech minded either...

Why the hell ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 10.2 DOESN'T WORK on Firefox 4???

Adobe Flash Player 10.2 doesn't work on firefox 4. I downloaded 10 times, I installed and again, "Please install ADOBE FLASH PLAYER"

You appear to have it installed twice. Your system specs show you have both Shockwave Flash 9.0 r28 and Shockwave Flash 10.2 r159 installed.
What I suggest you do here is to uninstall Flash using Adobe's uninstaller which you can download from here: [http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe uninstall_flash_player.exe]
Close Firefox before you run the uninstaller, then reboot.
Then manually install Flash using this file: [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe install_flash_player.exe] Close Firefox again before you run it.

My current version of Chrome is having problems, too! It's so annoying. Anyone have any suggestions now? I basically can't view or download any PDFs because of this.
Does anyone else think this is a problem not only with Adobe? I would think Apple would have something to do with this? Wouldn't they get some idea from the developer versions that no browser can open PDFs while running Lion!? Pretty bad customer service on the part of a company that prides itself on being VERY customer-friendly. Wouldn't you say?

I already tried that but it doesn't work. Appears a warning saying: "See the developer to make sure that iPhoto works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install all available updates in the application and OS X."
