"Stop download"-option removed from Flash Player

Hello,
i reinstalled my OS just recently and all system components including browser and Flash Player (11.8.800.94) as well, of course.
Just briefly after the installation i noticed there was no longer an option to "Stop downloading video" as used to be before. At first i was annoyed and i thought it concerned only me, but on the search for solutions i stumbled over this thread: http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/youtube/7AMubhSadeY[1-25-false].
Moreover i experience loading problems with YouTube content which i solely blame on the removal of this feature. While of course i am in no position to demand anything i would appreciate if you'd consider reenabling it in a future release. In the meantime.. could you please make a previous version available for download?
Pleeease?
Kind Regards
Sniperturtle

I think it was Youtube that removed the 'Stop download' feature.
Any earlier Flash Player version can be downloaded from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#Flash%20Player% 20archives

# Question
I want to download and install adobe flash player. When I do so one of 2 things occur. A dialog box appears but it has no run option but a save file or cancel option. The other is if the proper dialog box appears, I agree and the a different box appears and there is foxfire with a red circle with a diagonal line across is appears.

I find the easiest way to install Adobe Flash is to use the manual installers. You just need to download the installer to your computer, then run it to install Flash. For more details see http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller
That link states you should uninstall earlier versions, as you don't have the version of Flash used by Firefox you can skip that step.

Youtube "Stop Download" option

What happened to the stop download option on youtube videos?
Will it come back?
Is there a way to force this function with flash player?
It would be nice to have this function to control if I want to hear a annoying ad or other video that plays whether I want it too or not.
I also find it useful to test my custom thumbnails instead of waiting up to 12 hours for Youtube to cache it.
Thanks

You'll want to ask this question in the YouTube forums.

How can I remove apps that I downloaded and removed from "purchased" at App Store?

How can I remove some apps that I downloaded and removed from "purchased" list at App Store??
Thanks Vic

You can't remove apps from the purchased list. It's impossible. You can hide them but not delete them from the purchased list.
Tap and hold down on the app icon until it wiggles then tap the X on the icon to delete it, tap the home button to stop apps from wiggling.

I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image". I don't know what this is and I cannot see anything that requires Flash Player. What am I doing wrong?

I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image". I don't know what that is, but I cannot view anything that requires flash player. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help, but that didn't do any good either. I have been double clicking from the download files, double clicking on the "install adobe flash player", closing the anti virus, closing Safari, watching the install progress and clicking finish. It indicates that "flash player" is installed, but every time I try to view something requiring flash player, it tells me I must download it. It shows up in the "system preference" and from there I can make some changes, but it still won't let me view anything requiring "flash player". It does not show up in my apps like Adobe Reader does. It shows up in the "downloaded files" section of "Finder". I'm getting really perplexed over my inability to get this right.

When I want to play a video, it asks me to download the latest Adobe Flash player, and the iPad won't do that.

When I want to play a video, it asks me to download the latest Adobe Flash player, and the iPad won't do that.

The iPad doesn't and never will support the Flash program. You will need to download and install a different browser like the aforementioned Skyfire. Photon and Puffin are also mentioned as browsers that support Flash. Or see if the place you're accessing that video from has an app.

Using my current ID and password I can sign in to Adobe. When I try to download the upgrade to Flash Player they ask for ID and password. When I put in my current one it is rejected. What causes this and how do I correct it?

Using my current ID and password I can sign in to Adobe. When I try to download the upgrade to Flash Player they ask for my ID and Password. When I insert my current ID and password it is rejected. How do I correct this problem? Is it an incorrect sign in from an old ID, and/or an old password associated with Flash Player?

The password prompt is supplied by the operating system, and is intended to protect you from accidentally installing software. You will get this prompt for any installation outside the App Store context.
If you do not need to enter a username or password when starting your computer, you can probably just leave the password field blank when acknowledging this prompt.

How to really, really disable auto-update popups from flash player?

I have here a serious problem under 64bit Win7.
More and more frequently a popup appears prompting me (or even start download without prompt!!)if a new flash player should be installed.
When I proceed it shows the progress bar and downloads the package and installation started until the "done" button is shown.
Then I re-open Internet Explorer 9 again and re-vist the last webpage and ....the download starts again.
This is really annoying.
How do I really, really stop forever update prompts for flash player plugins for Firefox and Internet Explorer?
Peter

Hi pxstein,
Thanks for posting the screenshots, especially the one of the Process Explorer. It indicates that this is not an auto-update install situation. This type of installation is triggered via content on the page that requires a newer version of Flash Player (your screenshot indicates you have 11.8.800.94) and the content provider has decided to use this type of installation (we support several types that content providers can implement). Since this type of installation is controlled by the content, there isn't a way to disable it. Normally, IE displays a User Account Control dialog window or a dialog bar at the bottom of the page asking if you want to save/run the file. I don't see these in your screenshots and you don't mention if they displayed or not. If not, you may have disabled this warning at some point in time.
Flash Player 11.8 is very old and very vulnerable to security issues and we've released many security updates since then. My recommendation is to update Flash Player to the latest version, 15.0.0.167 for Internet Explorer (15.0.0.152 for non-IE browsers on Windows). If you don't want the latest features available in Flash Player 15, you can install what we refer to as the Extended Support Release (ESR) version. This is a previous stable version that we only release security updates for. Currently this is 13.0.0.244 for both Internet Explorer and non-IE browsers on Windows.
To download the latest version, go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Internet Explorer
To download the ESR version, go to Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe. The links to download the FP 13 ESR version are at the bottom of the page.

Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year; would like a newer release.

Can I download the stand-alone Flash Player that does not need a browser? I have ver 11.5 r502 that I d/l last year (11 Feb 2013); would like a newer release.
Can't find much about the standalone viewer, except in the Flash Builder docs, which says a .swf can specify to use it. I can't find a download link.
Thanks, Doug

You can download the standalone player (Projector) from https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you need to make the .swf file association manually.

How to stop the option key from changing tools when trying to subtract from a selection?

How to stop the option key from changing my tools when I am trying to subtract from a selection?
I'm running CS3 on Mac OS Leopard, and the automatic tool switching slows me down, but even preferences doesn't show a way to turn this off.
Thanks for your help.

With any marquee tool, JUST holding down the option key should not switch tools. You need to explain the problem much more carefully, It's completely impossible to tell from your description whats going wrong.
automatic tool switching
The only preference related to this, is to do with the SHIFT KEY - "use Shift key for tool switch".
