Unable To Install -- Older Version -- of FLASH

Hi,
I have latest version of FLASH Player in my system( Windows 7 ). But due to some reason I have to install Older verion of Flash in my system.
But when I am trying to install older version I am getting error message saying "Newer Version is available please visit http:// .... ".
Please let me know how can I install older Version of Flash.
Thanks
Mayank

I haven't done this in Windows 7, only XP, but I imagine something similar will work....
Here is the uninstaller: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Here are the instructions for "safe uninstall": http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402435.html
And here are the archived players: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
Also I think there was something about using a "/clean" switch after the uninstall command.
It was a little while ago, so there might be newer versions out there....

How to install older versions of Flash Player(ActiveX) in Win 8?

Hello all,
How to install older version of Flash Player in Windows 8? and how to uninstall default Flash Player that come from IE10 in Windows 8?
Actually I want to install Adobe_Flash_Player_(IE)_v11.7.700.224.exe in Windows 8.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for reply..
Actually i uninstalled the existing version of Flash Player from my Windows 8 PC, but when i tried to install the older version, it was not allowing me to install and was showing that my browser is included with latest version.
Even i followed the below given websites, it didn't given any remedy for it.

So that my PC is restricting the older version installation from somewhere which holds the version information and that user cannot modify/delete that information. If i know that mystery i can install any version of Flash Player in my Windows 8.
I hope i will find this.
Thanks for your support.

Unable to install newest version of flash

So I am running Windows seven, and for awhile now I have been unable to install the newest version of Flash, at first I got an error message, now that has gone away but I click the install file install_flashplayer13x32_mssd_aaa_aih and nothing happens, at all.
I try and click it again and it says it's already running. So for months now I haven't been able to update my flash, which for now hasn't been a problem online luckily, but on Steam I can barely use the steam client anymore and because of it several games have stopped working etc... so I really need help

Use these installers instead:
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

I am unable to install latest version of Flash Player

I get an error message saying "unable to contact trackers". I have followed all the guidance on the Adobe troubleshooter to no avail. Any ideas?

Hi PJA01,
I'm sorry that you experienced technical issues.
In order to better understand the cause of the problem, could you please provide me with following information?
1. Can you tell me a little about your network connection? For example, are you connected from home using your internet service provider, at work using work network, or at home connected through VPN?
2. Does your connection go through proxy server?
3. Are you using some kind of firewall? Is it personal or corporate firewall?
4. OS that you are using
5. Browser and browser version you are using.
Thank you,

Problem Installing older version of Adobe Flash Player Activixe (example vers.10 to 9)?

Hello everyone, I have the problem that I do not know how to install an older version of Flash ActiveX, since trying to install version 9, or even 10.0
.45, the error that comes out is not a recent version, and does not allow you to continue with the installation, prompting you to go to the site and download the latest one.
The Flash Player Plugin installed, but only with that will not start the program that I want to start ..
Before you install and uninstall the previous version of the ActiveX plugin, make sure there is no file flash.ocx (which are usually in C: windows/system32/macromed/flash), disconnect the computer from the Internet, all gate installation files of the most recent flash, everything from the pc, temporary reboot, install the older version but I always leave that mistake, I can not install older versions of Flash.
I have to install older versions of flash10 eun to start the program, but I can not continue. Someone can suggest how to install a previous version of flash blessed ..?
Thank you all, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ... a little early.: (
See if you can figure out how do they install?
Giorg

Before installing an older FP version you must completely uninstall your current version.
download the unistaller from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
close all browser windows and run the downloaded uninstaller
restart Windows
delete any remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash or C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash (64-bit)
install the old FP version
P.S. why do you want to install an old Flash Player?

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATION" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up").
In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC. Now try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?

Adobe Reader 9.5.1 does not recognise older version of Flash Plugin 10.3.183.18 it requires 11.2

I have a problem in upgrading Adobe Reader to 9.5.1 as it is not recognising older version of Flash Plugin 10.3.183.18 and it prompts the user to download and install Flash Player 11.2, this is not the case with Adobe Reader v 10.1.3 as it works fine with 10.3.183.18
My Firm is not ready to rollout Flash player 11.2 , is there any work around or a fix available to fix this issue , does anyone know which API is responsible for this Flash content

Hi,
This was an intended change along with Reader 9.5.1. This new strategy simplifies Acrobat and Reader deployments by reducing the number of future required updates should a security issue arise. Moreover, you can now manage and update Acrobat products and Flash individually.
Please refer to the following release note document for the 9.5.1 release for more information regarding the same:

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.

Flash CS3 Mac/Win Projector Publishing - Using older version of Flash

Hi,
How can I use an older version of Flash player when publishing to Man/Win Projector? The Properties says 'Player: 7' but when I publish to Mac/Win (.app/.exe) the file says it uses Flash player 9 (9.0.115.0)!
One of our clients are having issues with a project published this way - on autoplay they get a white screen instead of the program screen and after they update Flash on their computer, the application (Projector) works. What's the issue?
This is what I have on my first frame (using AS2), is any of this suspect to older versions of Flash? :
<code as2>
fscommand("fullscreen", true);
fscommand("allowscale", false);
        trace("This is a " + System.capabilities.os + " system.");
var os:String = System.capabilities.os.substr(0, 3);
        if (os == "Win") {
          trace("Windows-specific code goes here");
        } else if (os == "Mac") {
          trace("Mac-specific code goes here");
        } else {
          trace("Must be Unix or Linux");
var videoStartNumber:Number =0;
var originalMenu:Number = 1;
_root.menu1_1.onRelease = function() {videoStartNumber = 1; gotoAndPlay(5);}
_root.menu1_2.onRelease = function() {originalMenu = 3; gotoAndPlay(3);}
_root.menu1_3.onRelease = function() {originalMenu = 4; gotoAndPlay(4);}
_root.menu1_4.onRelease = function() {gotoAndPlay(2);}
_root.exitButton.onRelease = function() {fscommand("quit");}
stop();
</code as2>
But even if something on this project wouldn't work on an older version than 9.0.115.0 then it shouldn't matter as the Projector will always use the embedded Flash player, not the player installed on the computer, right?
Really would appreciate any help.
Thanks!
PJ

Please, can someone help me?
Our client is getting frustrated and I'm out of ideas as to what's wrong with the Projector executable! Why would it give white screen on launch on some systems and not on others?
Sincerely,
PJ Palomaki

Better to run with an older version of Flash (11.2) or with the latest with protected mode off?

The newest version of Flash (12) doesn't work correctly on my Windows 7 system(using Firefox). I tried fixing the issue in many ways (reinstalled my video driver, disabled hardware acceleration, clean Flash install, etc.) without luck. The only thing that worked was the "last resort" (found that the bottom of this article: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493): disabling protected mode. My question is "Is it better for me to run with an older version of Flash (11.2) or with the latest version with protected mode turned off?" Thank you,

You should always run the latest version, with one exception, which wouldn't apply in your case (PowerPC Macs CAN'T run anything newer than 10).
That's with or without Protected Mode enabled.

How to avoid installing newer version of flash player

Hey,
After installing the newer version of flash player it caused troubles to me, and I don't see any way but to install an older version of Flash Player, however after I have installed it the game forces me to Install the newest version of Flash Player, otherwise it cannot run. So here is my question. How can I use an older version of Flash Player I had before without installing the newer version of it?
- Dan

Hi, You can go to this test site to see if you have Flash Player Installed on your 10.6.5 Mac.
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Then this link has info on how to Uninstall Flash Player (if needed) and Install the latest version. It is a step by step.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html
After reading that info and you just need to Install, then this link would be easier:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Flash Player is a browser plugin and as long as your browser is supported by Adobe Flash Player, then you shouldn't have any problem.
Hope that helps,

Removing older versions of flash

I just tried the Secuna security test found at
http://secunia.com/software_inspector
It tells me i have loads of older versions of flash
installed, many of them with security issues. How can I get rid of
them as there is no uninstaller in Add/Remove programs for them,
except for version 8.

Hi,
I do not have any idea about this software, but as long it is
not in the Add\Remove Program, then it is not installed to your
machine. I guess your software is searching for the Flash Keys and
registry files which is not an installed application.
Hope this helps
