Tried to install Flash Player. Failed to initialize (Window 7 Ultimate)

I was trying to update my flash player but cant seem to be able to do so. I need it to play games on facebook.
Have done everything on the troubleshoot page.
Thank you

Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right
clicking one of the following links:  Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer) or Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers) and selecting "Save target as" or "Save Link as".
Save it to your Downloads folder - DO NOT run it yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening anything else, go to your Downloads folder and run the installer.
If IE still gives you trouble, see: Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer  and ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer  to be sure it's enabled and ActiveX isn't blocking content.

  • Installing Flash player fails AGAIN on Win 7

    Recently I had discussed here a problem with installing Flash Player on 32-Bit Windows 7, which was solved by help in this forum.
    Now I had a similar problem with 64-Bit Windows 7 with Flash Player for Mozilla. Installation just said that it failed, without giving further explanation.
    Following the advice I got in http://forums.adobe.com/message/3919367#3919367, I downloaded an installer explicitly from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/.
    This website redirected me to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, from where I downloaded http://aihdownload.adobe.com/bin/install_flashplayer11x64_mssd_aih.exe.
    Running this program went on for about 20 minutes, and finally resulted in the error message: "Installation encountered errors: Actionlist not found".
    What else can I do to install flash player?

    That is not a direct download link; it's a download helper stub.  In fact this is an old Flash Player link that is not even working any more.  I have no idea why you would want to post this in a more than two years old topic...

    What Pat said:
    Open Safari
    From the upper-left of the screen, choose Safari > Quit Safari
    You can now proceed with the installation.

  • Trying to install flash player on Mac  OS 10.6 .

    Trying to install flash player on Mac  OS 10.6 w/Safari.  Ran uninstaller.  In troubleshooting guide, no version comes up in the box, and no error message. I have unblocked cookies and pop-ups. No firewall. Still, the download bar runs to completion, and then nothing. Help?
    UPdate: called my local Apple Geek, and he said go to finder, click on adobe download, and go from there. Got the install icon, and its installed. 2 minutes versus the 2 hours I spent on the Adobe troubleshooting page. Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Or have a beer. Anyway, thanks for reading and good luck.

    I have tried about twenty times to install the Adobe Flash Player on my Mac. I had Adobe malware previously when responding to a fake popup Adobe update request.
    In orfer to install now I am asked to disable my anti virus. If I do it would be permanent. I get the Adobe download and installer and even see I have an installed version in a box on the Adobe page but cannot access pdf's that require the player.

  • Error 1335 - Trying to Install Flash Player 10 ActiveX

    When trying to install Flash Player 10 via the msi I receive the following message:   The cabinet file 'Data1.cab' required for this installation is currupt and cannot be used.
    There are no previous versions of Flash Player installed.

    Hi, I see you are using XP, didn't see the browser or browsers though.
    Also did you Uninstall first?
    Thanks,

  • I keep getting message "cannot contact reliable source" when trying to install Flash Player.

    I turned off AVG anti-virus and uninstalled old Flash Player versions.  I keep getting message "cannot contact reliable source" when trying to install Flash Player.

    I cant copy and paste the install file but it was not a or b above.  It was copied from the adobe website, downloaded  successfully, but will not install.  I get the download from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header

  • Installing flash player failed.

    I can't install flash player - 'insufficient administrator privileges'
    ~Windows 7 home premium service pack 1. 32 bit,
    ~Browser IE 10.0.9200.16660
    ~Have administrator privileges.

    Try the following: download the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header and save it to disk.  Close all browser windows, then navigate to your downloaded installer, right-click on it and select Run as Administrator.
    If that still fails, please post the contents of the FlashInstall.log file from C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash

    You already have most current version of Adobe (Shockwave Flash): version 10.0.45.2
    The instructions on the Adobe site are out-of-date and incorrect.
    You can download the Adobe Download Manager if you wish, but it has caused some problems, and I would advise against it. See the following for information on Adobe DLM:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+do+I+edit+options+to+add+Adobe+to+the+list+of+allowed+sites
    '''You have the Adobe DLM''' listed in your plug-ins; '''''getplusplusadobe16263'''''
    See:
    <u>'''Uninstall Adobe Download Manager'''</u>
    It has caused problems for many users. In the following article, scroll to near the bottom and follow the instructions under the heading "Getting rid of GetPlus":
    http://www.404techsupport.com/2009/09/get-adobe-flash-and-reader-without-getplus-in-firefox/
    ~~red:<u>'''The suggested method:'''</u>~~
    <u>'''Install/Update Adobe Flash Player for Firefox'''</u>: your ver. 10.0 r42; current ver. 10.0 r45
    See: '''[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+the+Flash+plugin#Updating_Flash Updating Flash]'''
    -download and <u>'''SAVE to your hard drive'''</u> (save to Desktop for easy access)
    -exit Firefox (File > Exit)
    -double-click on the Adobe Flash installer you just downloaded to install it
    -when the Flash installation is complete, start Firefox, and test the Flash installation here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_15507&sliceId=1
    *<u>'''NOTE: On Vista and Windows 7'''</u> you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). See this: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/run_as_administrator.htm
    *'''<u>NOTE for IE:</u>''' Firefox and most other browsers use a Plugin. IE uses an ActiveX version of Flash. To install/update the IE ActiveX Adobe Flash Player, same instructions as above, except use IE to download the ActiveX Flash installer.

  • I have a mac computer.  I am trying to install flash player but get the message "install adobe flash player wants to make changes.  Type your password to allow this." I do not use a password to open the computer.

    I have a mac computer that uses no password.  When installing flash player I get the message "Install adobe flash player wants to make changes  Type your password to allow this.  I can't get past this message.

    Hi,
    To change your password you will need to open System Preferences, then open Users & Groups, click on Change Password.  Change your password to a temporary one, then when you have finished you do the same procedure to change it back, by typing in the temp password then leaving the new password blank.  Hope this helps.

    ya that's my questioin\

    Hello,
    You'll need to install Flash Player 10.3.183.90, the last version supported for OS X 10.5.8. Download the archive zip file, http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.3.183.90_archive.z ip, and extract the contents. Then navigate inside the 10_3_r183_90 directory and use the file named flashplayer_10_3r183_90_mac_intel.dmg.
