Trying to update Adobe Flash to 11.7.700.169
I need to update my flash player. When I download I get a dialog box that says "only a single instance of this application can run". What do I need to uninstall it first? Never had a problem before...I am running Firefox 20.0.1
Download and run the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header

I successfully installed Adobe Flash Player 11.7.700.169 onto my Macbook Air 2012 (OS 10.7.5) and when I went onto website (Morrision Planetarium-California Academy of Science) it still read that I need update. I've tried 3x and still same message. Is there something I am doing wrong? Quite frustrating!
If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane. -

trying to update adobe flash player on firefox and it keeps saying "Quit Firefox" but I did.
Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
Do you have a MAC or Windows ?
For Windows, you can launch Windows Task Manager and go to Processes Tab, kill "Firefox.exe"
For MAC, you can launch Activity Monitor and Force Quit "Firefox"
Thanks,

Adobe Flash Player 11.7.700.169 2 , install window shows 1 item Zero KB? Even tried an uninstall and same thing, shows 1 item Zero KB? WHY?
Hello Chris and Sameer,
thank you for getting back on this issue.
To answer your questions first:
- no, I have not posted this issue in the connect forums - I will do and point to this discussion
- Sameer, I have tested the webcam on the website you pointed out, it is not working with Firefox but it is working in Chrome
I also need to give you an update on the current versions I use:
Win 7 Pro (64bit) (all updates included)
Firefox 21.0
IE 10.0.9200.16576
Chrome 26.0.1410.64 m
Flash Player 11.7.700.202
Adobe Connect Addin 11.2 r261
I tested the webcam via FP with Firefox, IE and Chrome in the versions mentioned above. Only in Chrome I can run the WebCam on the www.testwebcam.com website. Once I start the adobe connect meeting and want to start the webcam the Connect Addin stops working with the popup as shown in post 3 of this discussion in all three browsers.
All components have been uninstalled and installed again (except for IE) for testing with no change in the result. I have also rolled back the computer to the system recovery point furthest back in time to see if any other installation might be the cause. But no luck either.
I am happy to post the logs but would need advise where to find these or how to retrieve.
Thanks!

In the process of updating Adobe Flash, Firefox froze. It registers as being open, and none of the fixes I've tried will work as long as it's open, but I can't close it. Even when I click on the Firefox icon, the Firefox menu bar doesn't appear. No Firefox window appears.
Good advice - I'll keep that in mind. Thanks

I don't seem to be able to download the Install or Uninstall for Adobe Flash. Flash won't play because it's not up to date. I have checked system preferences and they are correct. What can I do to update Adobe Flash?
Thx.[discussion moved to Using Flash Player forum]

Adobe Flash Player 11.7.700.169 crashes
After installing Adobe Flash Player 11.7.77.169 Internet Explorer crashes on any page that uses flash.
@MrDanne - This is most likely a different issue that was previously reported. I'd like to investigate but would request that you follow the steps outlined in this FAQ.
How do I report a Flash Player crash to Adobe?
If you're up for generating a crash log, you can try the following steps.
1. Download and extract the procdump utility to your C: drive - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/dd996900
2. Open a command prompt and type the following in:
c:\procdump -e 1 -f * -x c:\dumps "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
Please note that if IE is installed somewhere else, you'll need to alter the path. This works for me on Windows 7 x64.
3. That should launch IE and the command prompt will display a bit of information letting you know that procdump is monitoring the process.
4. Cause IE to crash, then locate the .dmp file at C:\dumps. Zip this file up and send it to [email protected] and I'll take a look to see if I can figure out what's going on. -
Trying to update Adobe Flash Player: 'update' seems to be OUT of date
I've been trying to download updated version of Adobe Flash Player over & over again for over two hours. The only available version reads 'updated April 19, 2013' and does not work - I am still seeing "blocked plug-in" everywhere there should be a video playing. How do I find and download the most up to date version? (If this IS the most up to date version, what is the problem?)

Adobe Flash Player 11.7.700.169 Continously Crashes/Locks Up PC with Firefox & Windows 7
I'm really tired of this. If I go back to a prior version of Flash everything works fine. Your new version locks up my pc, I get "Adobe Flash Player has crashed, reload the page"
Why is this version such a horrible mess? I have to open up Task Manager and consistently End the Plug in process.
Then the only way to watch videos is to uninstall the latest version and go back to Flash 10 where everything works fine.
You KNOW this is a problem with a lot of people. Please fix it. I keep clicking on the link for Send Crash report.I'm sorry you're going through this. I suspect you might be running into a conflict with our Protected Mode which was introduced in Flash Player 11.4. Please try the troubleshooting steps outlined in this FAQ:
How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
In particular, I'd recommend temporarily disabling protected mode (for troubleshooting purposes only) to see if that addresses the issue.
In addition, could you go to "about:crashes" in Firefox's address bar and copy some of the most recent report id links into a reply? -
Getting an error message trying to update Adobe Flash Player
Every time I try to update Flash Player for Firefox, by downloading the update from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
I get the following error:
Host
"Unable to load application configuration"
Any help would be greatly appreciated!In case one of your extensions is blocking data that the site needs, could you try Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference? -
Firefox 6.0.2

no matter how I try to update the download never shows up in the downloads box. A box pops up at the bottom of my screen and says "all downloads finished" but it never shows up in my downloads list so I am never given the option to "run".
I was able to find it manually in the download list but I have no idea why it will not pull up correctly when doing an auto update.AA9 is not compatible with Reader. It is probably best to uninstall Reader and then repair AA9 (Help>Repair). Also, when you install you should generally be logged in as the administrator and have anti-virus disabled.
For the updates, it may be best to simply go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows, download the updates, and install them in order. A new system may be the problem, particularly if it is Win8 and 64 bit, you did not say. For 64-bit systems, the updates are critical (I think AA9 works on 64-bit systems after the updates). For AA X, it required 10.1 for 64-bits.
Also, if you updated OFFICE, then expect to only print to the Adobe PDF printer. AA9 does not work with PDF Maker on the newer versions of OFFICE.
If you uninstall AA9 for some reason (I don't recommend except as a last resort), then be sure to remove the Acrobat folder and run the cleaner (http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html) before a reboot and reinstall. -
