Adobe Flash Player & passwords

A pop-down asked me if I wanted to update Adobe Flashplayer. Unfortunately, I said yes.
Now I can’t play any videos on the internet.
When I tried to access Adobe Flash Player, it asked for my password – but didn’t accept the one I entered. If I try to uninstall Adobe Flash Player, I also need a password.
I found my apple ID and re-set my password by going to
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
I was advised that my Apple ID password had been reset.
When I went into System Preferences, though, and tried to set my Apple ID - my new password was ‘incorrect’.
To ‘Change password’, I need to know the old password – which I don’t.
Also, the lock is shut and I can’t click it open ‘to make changes’. The ‘Allow user to reset password using apple ID’ box is not ticked.

When being prompted for passwords to install/remove Flash it is your Admin password not your Apple ID password you're using - yes?
You may want to start over with Flash by using Adobe Flash Player Install Manager in your Utilities folder. When prompted for a password use your Admin pw.
Download the latest version of Flash direct from Adobe: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Once installed, and if you are using Safari, make sure that Enable Plugins is ticked in Safari Preferences>Security tab.
For your Apple ID (not your computer admin pw) have a look at Keychain Access in Utilities. Click on Passwords and then find the entry 'daw.apple.com...........', select it, click the show password box, enter your Admin pw at the prompt and it should show you your Apple ID pw (I think the information I'm giving here is correct). That should confirm what you think your Apple ID pw is.
Then do a restart and try logging in to your iTunes or Mac App Store account.
If that doesn't help resolve your Apple ID problems, not sure what to suggest next other than re-visiting:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/

I've tried installing the latest Adobe Flash Player several times, but it does not seem to work. Any suggestions?

One of the websites I use gives me this message:
Alternate HTML content should be placed here. This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash
I have tried installing the Flash player several times, but I keep having this same problem.

Can't see your Installed Plugins under More system details...
Did you install the correct version of Flash? 
IE uses a different version of Flash - ActiveX - than other browsers need - the Plugin version.
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, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

What is the problem with Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.257?

I tried to update to Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.257 using FireFox. I get the screen that says "initializing" and that seems to go okay. I am then shown the screen that asks me how I want to handle updates. I choose notify me. Then the download starts. It completes 47% and then I get a message that says Timed Out. Adobe does not seem to have any solutions. I downloaded it fine on Internet Explorer. FF is the only problem

Currently, I don't have any version of Flash installed as a plug-in on Firefox.
On Internet Explorer, I downloaded the 11.xxx - no problem.
The previous version of Flash for Firefox was 10.3.xxx - I was using that until I went to a frequently visited website and it prompted me to update to the latest version.
I began the download.
First thing I saw was the installer started "Initializing." That stopped and then I was ask to select an update method (automatic, notify me, no update). I selected Notify Me. I clicked Next and then download and install started. It stopped at 47% and gave me a Timed Out message. It then said that it was unable to install. I turned off my antivirus software etc. No luck. No message that I can find indicates that it is getting blocked.
One of the suggestions I read was that, if the 11.xxx version did not download and install, then I should uninstall the earlier versions. I did this. Still no success. The problem continues.
Bing Maps: That has been going on for about one year. I cannot get any search results if I type in a location. The map appears for a brief second and then disappears. It is like it is getting blocked but I cannot figure out how. It does not happen on IE. I was using Firefox on Bing maps fine - this was an overnight change.

After Adobe Flash Player downloaded, there was no installer dialogue showed up

I was trying to download the Adobe Flash Player into my Mac (with OS 10.6.8) via Safari. After pressed the download button, it seemed the Adobe flash player was downloading - I could see the green strip was moving, and the time was changing. After the strip was filled by the green, the box was frozen. The box was blank, with "downloads" on the top. No installer dialogue showed up. Did any one have this issue before? How to fix it? Many thanks in advance! zp12

Can't download free Adobe Flash Player - Help

I tried to download free Adobe Flash Player or Adobe Reader (is the same) and appears in the screen the following message:
"GetPlus+(R) The specified software requires a recent version of windows" and I can't proceed with instalation. I have already done a virus verification with Kasperky and it's OK. I have Windows XP (SP3) and Internet Explorer 7.
Thank you very much for your help!

Hi, Don't use that DLM(download manager) since it can cause a problem.
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
Disable any Realtime Anti-Virus until you have finished Uninstalling and Installing Flash Player
Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
Check to make sure the Anti-Virus is still Disabled
Run the Installer for IE, and when finished, Reboot.
Re-enable your Anti-Virus
Then go to this test site and test each browser:

You may want to print these instructions to make it easier to follow. If you have any questions, let me know.
