Unable to install Active X and Flash Plugin for Acrobat

I would like to create a PDF Portfolio in Acrobat Pro XI. However, once I have selected the files I get a notification that states, "To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat." When I click the buttom "Proceed to download page," it brings me to this page: Acrobat Help | Flash Player needed | Acrobat, Reader XI
The problem is, the two download links for Windows don't seem to be working. Is this an across the board issue or is it just me? How can I go about installing these required plugins?

Hi asbryk,
I checked the link to install flash player and it is working fine.
If the 'Flash Player Active X' and 'Flash Player Plug-ins ' are already installed in your system, then first uninstall them.
For that, please go to Control Panel>Programs and Features and click uninstall.
Also, check whether you have an updated Acrobat version i.e. 11.0.09 by clicking Help>Check for Updates
Now, restart your system and install the Flash Player from the same link you tried earlier.
I hope this will work fine now.
Regards,
Anubha

  • Adobe Reader Updates and Flash Plugin for Reader.

    I was surprised to find out that Adobe Reader Updates and also Flash Plugin for Adobe Reader cannot be installed on Windows 7 without Admin Rights!!!!!
    I remember on Windows XP this was not an issue. I am sure I have checked the possibility of installing Adobe Flash Plugin for Adobe Reader on Windows XP without Admin Rights and it worked...
    Now, we have some major issue...
    I have prepared Adobe PDF Portfolio for some new policy for Housing Loan, and deployed it to be open from a Web Browser. As per my testing, it worked very nice, and the Business User loved it. On Windows XP, if flash plugin for Reader is not installed, the user will be guided to install it, and it works very nicely.
    Just before sending the announcement to all users, we realized that on Windows 7, if flash plugin for Reader is not installed, then when the user clicks on the link to open the PDF Portfolio, then nothing happens. The browser window will open, and it will hang.
    Then we found out that on Windows 7 we have to install the Reader Flash Plugin manually, and also, the user must have Admin Rights ...
    Now, a decision has been made to cancel the work done using PDF Portfolio, and develop a simple page with links to the required documents...
    Any solution for this?
    How we can install the required plugin without the need for Admin Right?
    Why on Windows 7, the user does not get prompts to guide him to install Adobe Reader Flash Plugin?
    Tarek.

    I think I can see the reason for this. The Flash Player is separated from Adobe Reader; the system component is now used. (It appears that the "browser plug-in" and "Flash plug-in for Adobe Reader" are indeed the same thing, loaded from the same system location).
    Adobe are following recommended practice. It is right and proper that software is installed by the administrator. This then means that the non-administrator end user is protected from malware which attempts to change that software for bad reasons.
    Nobody wants to walk round installing 1000 copies of software. Personally, I'd draw the line around 5 copies. Above that, software designed for bulk use is deployed centrally using enterprise deployment tools.
    There are even more powerful reasons to do this today, as security updates should be installed almost immediately, and end users won't bother. Generally, the tools are standard, but the vendor adds support for deploying software in these standard frameworks.

  • I am unable to access information from the internet as I am unable to install the lastest adobe flash player that is now required.  Can you please help?

    I am unable to access information from the internet as I am unable to install the lastest adobe flash player that is now required.  Can you please help?

    I fould a hack that makes the sites think you have the latest (Intel) version of Flash installed. So I installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari. Here's the info.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox

    I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox (Firefox version 1.5.0). I've tried to install the latest version 9.0.16.0 from the Adobe Download Centre. There are no error messages or warnings during the installation.
    The Flash plugin for IE is working fine.
    I've tried everything, uninstall the pre-installed version (7), re-install FireFox, uninstall all plugins, download and install everything over and over..... still the same problem.

    Hi Stephan,
    Thans for your reaction and suggestion.
    I've cleaned up the register, deleted all the macromedia and flash keys.
    Restarted, installed Flash plugin again, IE is working fine (again) but Firefox (and Opera!) only showing the message "Flash plugin needed" when I try to display a site with Flash content.
    I have the same combination working on several desktops, does it have anything to do with te pre-installed software from Toshiba?
    I have two Toshiba Sattelite's P100 with both exactly the same problems! Flash on IE working, Opera an Firefox NOT.

  • Can I install Coldfusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder?

    I already have a licensed copy of Flash Builder 4.x installed, trying to install ColdFusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder. When I installed CFB, I selected install as a eclipse plugin and entered the path to the FB directory. Now I can't figure out how to invoke/add the CFB plugin in FB..
    Thanks in advance

    You should have uninstalled rather than simply deleting CFB 2 plugins manually .
    Please do the following  to fix it now. (If you have used Uninstaller to uninstall that would have cleaned all these things ):
    Take a backup and delete the file: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Uninstall/{b8c666c3-1efd-11b2-bf3c-e04be4b2b610}.db
    And you will be able to install CFB as plugin to Eclipse now.
    Thanks,
    Krishna

  • Trouble installing pepper flash plugin for Chromium

    Hello. I've been trying to install the pepper flash plugin for Chromium via the Chromium Plugins package in the AUR here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chro … per-flash/ . I successfully extracted the tarball, built the package and installed it using pacman. After restarting Chromium, however, the only new plugin I see is the Chrome PDF viewer; no pepper-flash plugin is visable. I thought about maybe installing the flash player that you can download from Adobe's website but I don't know if that would interfere with the plugin I should have already installed. Any advice on how to get this plugin to work in Chromium would be great. Thanks.

    I have pepperflash installed on my chromium and it identifies itself as
    Adobe Flash Player - Version: 13.0.0.214

    This is in about:plugins url and is not an up-to-date version, but it works. I'll try updating to the newest version and see if it breaks things

  • Despite having up to date Firefox and Flash plugin, I still get a crash message. What can I do?

    I am trying to use SiteFusion to build a website. When I go to upload a PSD file I get a "Flash plugin has crashed" message and the ability to select the PSD file and upload it stops. I have checked and I am on the most up to date version of Firefox and Flash plugin running Mac OS 10.6.8 on an Intel Core 2 Duo.

    I ignored this for sometime but today I lost my patience and decided to fix this nagging problem. The update prevented me from using the shutdown option as then it would download the updates and then fail over and over again.
    None of the steps helped however they set me on a path. I uninstalled all unwanted programs but that was not what fixed the issue. I noticed other than Office 2007 I also had installed Word viewer 2007 , Excel viewer, Powerpoint viewer. I uninstalled these
    voila!! Windows update said I don't need these updates on which the install was failing, I checked for updates again and the above updates never appeared in the list of updates found.
    I thought I will put this out there just incase someone else runs into similar situation as me. Good Luck.

  • Flash Plugin for DW?

    I loaded a site into DW from my local disk that has a Flash
    element. In Live View, the Flash element does not display and I get
    a yellow warning bar that says:
    The Flash Plugin was not found. To view Flash content install
    the Netscape/Firefox Flash Plugin from www.adobe.com.
    I can't find this plug-in anywhere on adobe.com. Wher can I
    get it and how do I install it into DW?
    Thanks,

    Hmm. Does Live View use Firefox - or allow you to choose the
    browser
    engine? On Windows, I think Design View uses IE, but I don't
    know about
    Live View.

    In FireFox, go to
    http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash
    and install. You may
    want to quit DW first.
    If you have IE, you may want to go to the same link in IE
    just so
    they're on the same plugin version.

  • When flash plugin for 9300 os 6.0?

    Hi 
    anybody know some when be flash plugin for 9300 ?

    There's been an announcement in the past that Adobe Flash would be available in the future for QNX BlackBerrys, which have not been released yet.
    I sorta doubt we'll see Flash on the 9300 or older models, at all. That's just my opinion.

  • Problems installing or running Adobe Flash Player for safari

    problems installing or running Adobe® Flash® Player for safari when trying to install Adobe Flash Player.pkg it asks to quit Dash Board client then brings up Exclamation mark up and quits install ??????

    Adobe Flash is pretty much a 32-bit application. You may be able to fix the problem by going into your Applications folder, and right-clicking on Safari. There is a check box that will allow you to run Safari in 32-bit mode. Try that and see if Flash works in Safari.
    I have retired my iMac, and have an HP now, but a friend helped me with the same problem when I upgraded to Snow Leopard. My PC seems to have just one 64-bit browser, that being Internet Explorer. I am using IE9 Beta in 64-bit, and the Beta for Flash "Square" in 64-bit seems to work fine. See link below:

    According to the link you posted, it seems to be required to install the Flash Player plugin to view Flash content in PDF files.
    On the other hand I do not quite understand why there is a NPSWF32.dll file in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader ...

  • Flash Plugin for N73 Browser

    I have purchased N73 and am enjoying the browsing experience with N73.
    But I feel that it does not have the Flash plugin for the browser. I want to know what is the default browser for Nokia N73 and how to get the flash plugin for that?

    The default browser is "Services". The phone also has "Web", which is another (newer) browser.
    Neither one supports "full" Flash as used by web designers on many sites.
    The phone supports Flash-Lite 1.1, and I think with the "Services" browser it might work on web sites with embdedded Flash-Lite 1.1 compatible content, too. Never tried it myself (not that many web sites that support Flash-Lite anyway; I don't know of any).
    There is also no separately downloadable/installable "full" Flash plugin available, I'm afraid. You could always ask Adobe to make one, if they think it is possible.
    You can, of course, also ask the web site owners/developers for a more mobile friendly site that doesn't use PC-only technologies.
