Silent Flash player Autoupdate over internet without user interaction

Is it possible to set Flash Player to auto update without ever having any user interaction? We don't have any internal application depending on flash player so I would like to install an version of flash update with auto update settings and forget it.
I did install 15.0.0.152 with settings:
mms.cfg:
AutoUpdateDisable=0
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1
But it has updated to 15.0.0.167 instead of 15.0.0.189. Does the autoupdate use always the latest version or does it install only critical updates? Why did I get 167 and not 189 ? I can see that the task launching the auto-update run every hour, with default settings, but no new updates are made, wheter my browser (IE) is running or not.

Please do the following.
Open IE6, go to Tools and then Manage Add-ons.
Change the menu dropdown (on the left) to "All Addons", then scroll down to Adobe (if it's there) and then check the version number. The current version is 11.1.102.55 (See screenshot)
If it's not listed, or if it's a different version, download this uninstaller, but choose to Save it (doesn't matter where). Do not choose "Run". http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_32bit.exe
After you save the file, close IE.
Run the uninstaller (even if Flash is not listed in Manage Add-ons) and then reboot.
Next, go to: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and when you see the prompt, choose "Run" to install it immediately. Oh, and uncheck any third party installation options like the Google Toolbar / McAfee. You can install those any time.
Go back to Manage Add-ons and confirm that 11.1.102.55 has been installed.

What is the Flash Player auto-update behaviour for users without admin credentials on OSX and Windows?

Hi
Does Flash Player auto-update have the ability to update systems when a user does not have administrator access on their device?
What will the results be if we enable Flash Player auto-update on OSX and Windows systems where:
1. Users are log in with accounts that DO NOT have administrator access; and
2. Internet access is granted via a proxy server, but only when a user with NO administrator credentials is logged in.
Thanks in advance.

So there's no way to completely turn off user notification AND allow background updates unless you use a locally hosted update server? That's too bad.
Reading page 26 of the manual, I see there's an mms.cfg file that you can configure, with an option SilentAutoUpdateEnable, which is described on page 32:
SilentAutoUpdateEnable
SilentAutoUpdateEnable = [ 0, 1 ] (0 = false, 1 = true)
Availability: Flash Player 11.2 for Microsoft Windows, and Flash Player 11.3 for Macintosh
Enables a Flash Player update to install silently in the background with no user interaction. Installs both the ActiveX and plug-in players when appropriate. This type of update is called a Flash Player background update.
Standard users cannot disable background updates if they are enabled by an administrator.
Depending on the type of browser, if the user has a browser open at the time of an update, the browser might not use the updated player immediately. For more information, see "Performing a background update" on page 19.
The default value is 0 to disable background updates.
So you're saying that even if we enable this option (but don't configure a local server), users may still be prompted some or all of the time?

Cannot install flash player due to internet explorer

I am running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 10. I have disabled activeX filtering, made sure scripting was enabled, and temporarily shut off my antivirus software as instructed by Adobe website. None of these things have fixed my problem. I try to download the flash player and in the middle of downloading it says to close internet explorer. I close all open windows of IE and push continue. It keeps telling me to shut down internet explorer even though it is not open. Please help. Thanks!

I can't install flash player with a non-administrative user

Hi,
in my job, we've just rebuild a server, with a clean Windows
2003 installation, all users are working with Terminal Server. The
problem is that we are unable to install Flash player in IE7 on a
user who have no administrative permissions but it works fine
firefox. It gives the following error (translate from spanish to

So far, we give permissions to all users in

How to print a pdf without user interaction (With C#)

My boss assigned me a task that to get the ImagePreview of 1st page of PDF.
My thought is to print the 1st page of PDF to file(virtual print to file), and get the image source, but there comes the problem:
How can print a pdf without user interaction(With C#),question are these:
1. I can use the ShellExcute but cannot assign the destination of output file.
2. User interface is unwanted, I don't want show anyone the Acrobat Reader interface who click the file just want to get a preview.
3. No place to put those parameters in.
This problem confused me a lot of days, I wish someone can give some hints.
Thank you very much!
(Maybe you will tell me to use Acrobat SDK, please don't, I'm afraid we cannot afford that)

>I have not read the document yet
This is the first step. There are many documents, but start with the
introductory/getting started material.
> with a index.pdx
A PDX is a search database to allow you to do fast searching in
Acrobat.
>
>About the relationship between Adobe Reader and Acrobat, as far as I know is that, the previous one is just the reading tool for PDF document, instead, Acrobat can modify and resave the PDF doc. Is it right?
Effectively, yes. But the Acrobat SDK is mainly for working with
Acrobat. It's very important to keep this clear, since you have said
you only have the free Reader, so 95% of what is in the SDK cannot
work for you.
>
>Simply my questions,
>1. I don't know which dll to refer in the .Net project to print with. Is the ActiveX folder in product folder?
Simply, there is no point asking these questions, yet, because you
have not started on the documentation.
But let's continue in the SDK forum, where I have posed what seems to
be a very important question about why print to file at all.

How to run eCATT in dialog mode(foreground) without user interaction(Enter)

Hi,
As part of performance testing using eCATT we want to execute a test script in dialog mode(foreground) without user interaction like pressing enter at end of each screen. The reason behind this is we want to run a test script 1000 times in dialog mode to analyze the performance of that particular transaction code. Hence its not practical to keep pressing enter at end of each screen. We do not want to execute this in background as that does not simulate the real time transaction processing and give the exact performance analysis.
We have a test script with VA01 recording and are able to execute it perfectly in background as well as foreground (by pressing enter at end of each screen).
I would like to know if there are any settings to be made to execute the test script in dialog mode without pressing enter. I have referred the below link which has not solved my purpose.
ECATT - Running in Foreground (Enter Key)
Thank You.

Gopi,
I never used this transaction before, but my approach would be as below. You may want to try and let me know how it works.
Before running this script from ST30, first try to run from SECATT for one iteration to make sure the script and target system RFCs are working. Then try again in ST30. Still if you have the issue, ask your basis to take a look when you kick off from ST30 in the target system whether ST30 were able to successfully make the RFC call to that system.
thanks

Any way to Upload a File Automatically without user interaction in BSP.

Hi,
Any way to Upload a File Automatically without user interaction in BSP.
Problem is;
We have an terminal pc connected to an Production Machine and has a PLC for reading Machine Actual Datas. This terminal has Windows CE.NET OS. There is one program which Appending PLC Data to Text file (STORAGE CARD\PLC\SAMPLE.TXT).
Users can access to WAS system in this Terminal (Has network).
I have to access to SAMPLE.TXT file using BSP when user antered a page in WAS.
Have you got any solution. I have tried so much methods to do this. But i have not found any solution.

Yes SAMPLE.txt stored in "STORAGE CARD\PLC" folder in terminal.
But i am trying in my computer to test with "C:
GPS.txt"
I have tried before this method. But I think this is a security exception. Because when i use
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

</SCRIPT>
i am getting an alert with message "txt". there is no problem.
But when i try to access file using this code
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

</SCRIPT>
i am getting "Automation server can't create object".

LV doesn't have any sort of Startup folder as we are a little concerned
about the security issues this brings about. You can specify VIs on the
command line for LV to open. And VIs can be set to run when opened.
Combining these features, you wind up using the system's Startup folder,
placing either a batch file or a shortcut to LV with the command line
options added to list out the VIs, and finally, set the VI properties
so
that the VIs run when opened.

Tired of installing Flash Player 10 over and over and over again!!!!!!

Why do I have to keep installing Flash Player 10?? Every time I go to a site that uses Flash, it tells me I need the newest Flash Player. I click the link, install it, and everything works great...until...I close windows and come back later when it makes me repeat the whole thing again. Adobe won't give me the time of day when I try to talk to them. I've resintalled it about 50 times. I've uninstalled it per tech support instructions who told me to install version 9. I specifically asked if it will then tell me I need version 10. He assured me it would not. The next time I went to Youtube...guess what. I'm told I need to download Flash Player 10!
Using Windows Vista and IE8

>but I wouldn't tell you to install vs 9, unless you were using Windows98 and IE4 or 5:-)<
Why do you think the Tech told him to install version 9?
>I have several threads open right now, take a look at some of them. I'd probably ask you the same questions.
Just a suggestion.
Thanks,

What thread links do you have open to help us out?
>I would need you to post back your Flash file versions, SWO in add ons, Security and Firewall you use, etc.<
1. What is SWO?
2. I have Adobe DLM(powered by getPlus(R) 1.6.2.63 which then underneath says
"The getPlus(R) Download-, Upload- and Installation Manager is a sophisticated tool for an efficient distribution of digital goods."
This is interesting because from the Adobe Naviation menu under Support>Forums>click on the Flash icon that says "Adobe Flash Player"> and refer to USER POST: betsyg3 "We can't watch videos without adobe flash" where a link is suggested to show you which version you have. The suggested link says "Do you see the Flash animation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?" there is a list that shows what version you should have that looks like this:
Platform Browser Player version
Windows
Internet Explorer (and other browsers that support Internet Explorer ActiveX controls and plug-ins)
10.0.45.2
Windows
Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera (and other plugin-based browsers)

Firefox, Opera, Safari
10.0.45.2
Linux
Mozilla, Firefox, SeaMonkey
10.0.45.2
Solaris
Mozilla
10.0.45.2
and right above it there is a box that shows what version you have yet the version it says on the addon page is not the version that is on that link.

New flash player not working for all users

I have Flash 10.0.22.87 installed on a freshly built Citrix 4.5 PS. When the administrator is signed in, everything works just fine. When my users sign in, they navigate to a webpage that requires flash and it either tells them that Flash is not installed or it prompts them to install (but does nothing when you tell it to).
Did flash player become profile specific with this new release? I have 10.0.12.36 and 9.0.115.0 on my other Citrix servers and they work without issue for all users. I've tried uninstalling with the utility I downloaded from adobe.com and re-installing with the offline activeX control. I've played with the security settings opening thing wide open and it still does not work. There is no different software between the problem server and the other Citrix servers other than this version of Flash.
Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance

I am experiencing the same problem on my LAN. Administrator account the app works fine, end users sign in with non admin accounts and it will not work.
I spent some time reading online and found the following instructions on the NET. I tried them and I thought it worked because I was able to log on as a non admin user test account and the flash player worked just fine.
Log in as Admin
2. Download the following zip file from here:
www.supportflash.com/reset_all.zip
3. Unzip this folder onto your desktop.
4. Drag both files ‘reset_min_all.cmd’ and
‘subinacl.exe’ to your
desktop.
5. Run the reset_min_all.cmd file.
6. It will open a DOS like terminal and start
running through registry
keys.
7. When it is finished it will say “press any key
to continue”.
8. At this point you can install the latest Flash
Player:
for Internet Explorer:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ts/documents/tn_19166/Install_F
lash_Player_9_ActiveX.zip
other browsers:
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
9. Check that Flash Player is working for the
Admin.
10. Check that Flash Player is working as the
other 2 users.
I hope this information helps. Feel free to reply
if you need further
assistance on the issue discussed here or file
a new case if you want to
report a new issue in the Support Portal:
I also found 6 different versions of Version 8 that supposedly does not require Admin priveleges but it does. Back to the drawing board.

Flash Player Drops Out Internet Connection of Other Programs

I'm having terrible problems with Flash Player X. Everytime I connect to streaming video using Flash Player, the movie plays OK for about ten minutes then Flash Player doesn't allow me to connect to the internet with other programs of other windows and drops out any programs already connected. I can either surf the internet or watch a movie but not both. I've tried re-installing the software, done every configuration of my system and firewall that I know how but still can't get rid of this problem. I've tried all the suggests in other threads but to still no avail. I could use some help on this issue.

No, Verizon doesn't automatically share your wifi connection with strangers. The cable company that serves Long Island is now doing what you described. They have guest wifi automatically enabled on their latest routers but FiOS does no such thing. If you would like to try to get some help with your varying speeds from fellow users here, start another thread and provide more details. Include what part of the country you're in; if you're measuring your speeds via a hardwire (Ethernet) connection or wifi; and what model router you have. I can tell you that with the rare exception of a few hours outage we had a few days ago, I consistenly get over 80 mb/s up and down on my 75/75 plan. That's the way FiOS should work and does for me. BTW, you should be able to go to the setup pages for your router in your router and see what devices are connected to your local network. Sign in at 192.168.1.1 on on the home page you'll see "My Network" where all devices connected will be shown.

Flash Player 9 crashes Internet Explorer 6.

Hello
Previous versions of Flash Player worked fine on my Win98SE
system until I upgraded to versions 8 and 9, then it became
impossible to use Flash Player without a message popping up saying
that there had been an illegal instruction in module FLASH9B.OCX.
Occasionally I had to reboot my system which had become
unstable (blue screen - system busy).
I submitted the register dump from the FLASH9B.OCX crash to
Adobe and they provided me with an uninstall tool along with
instructions on how to (re)install the latest version.
Every re-installation of the latest version always ended with
an eventual crash of the FLASH9B.OCX module while visiting
different websites,
Adobe advised me to stop using Flash Player on the grounds
that there was, in their estimation, something corrupt within my
Win98SE operating system and/or Internet Explorer version 6, all of
which I have kept up to date with the latest patches from MS.
I downloaded a fresh copy of Internet Explorer and I also ran
the Win98 tool that verifies the system files and I replaced the
half dozen files that were flagged as being suspect (checksum
error, no doubt).
In spite of this, Internet Explorer still crashes when I
visit a website which has Flash media on it (static images).
I have resigned myself to living in a world without Flash
Player.
But the price to pay for not keeping Flash Player installed
on one's system is that there are constant requests to download
Flash Player via a pop-up window, and even my pop-up blocker can't
hide these constant interruptions.
Has anyone else had this same problem and if so, have you
found a better way to live with or without Flash Player?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
UPDATE: When I go back to version 8, then module FLASH8B.OCX
crashes in the same way as version 9.
If I go back to version 7 (7.0.19), everything works
perfectly. So what was changed in version 8 that makes my Internet
Explorer crash?

patch one to work.
I thought of "back-reving" to the latest Flash 7 player to
see if the issue goes away but I have yet to do that.
Good luck looking for a non-MMX code path hidden upstream of
the offending MMX instruction.
Going back to Flash 7 is relatively easy and you will
suddenly be able to visit places you haven't been in years, but
there are still some sites that will block you unless you have
Flash player 8 or 9.
First use the Adobe uninstaller to clean up which is found
at .
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157
Then find a copy of :
flashplayer7r61_winax.exe
and run it. That will give you the latest Flash 7.
