  • Latest Adobe Flash Player keeps asking "Allow" and wont play videos

    Hi,
    Since the latest update of Adobe Flash Player 17 i cant get videos who depend on it to play anymore. Im running latest Internet Explorer in Windows 7 and all was fine until the latest update of the flash player a couple of days ago.
    The issue is that everytime i go to for example Youtube the video is black with the small cross top left, and at the bottom of the browser i get the Windows banner telling me about plugins, and especially Adobe Flash Player. And i have the two options of allowing or allow for all. However when i click any of them the page just refresh and the banner comes up again. The only way ive been able to watch videos is to uninstall the flash player since at least Youtube works without it. Any other site that depends on Adobe Flash Player wont work however. Just the same issue with the banner asking me to allow the flash plugin which never goes away.
    I tried uninstalling/reinstalling several times without luck. When i check the browser plugins i see Shockwave/Flash being enabled.
    I saw an earlier post by someone on this forum asking about this and the respons was that it had been answered somewhere else, but without a link. I cant find that post so i would be thankful if someone could direct me to it. I have thought that there was something wrong with the latest flash player (v17) since it worked fine since 1 year back when i installed Windows. It just stopped working just now a couple of days ago, at the exact time the new flash installed.
    Thank you in advance.

    If Flash Player works on some sites and not others, then it's an issue with the site not correctly detecting the presence of Flash Player. 
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • 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? <br />
    IE uses a different version of Flash - ActiveX - than other browsers need - the Plugin version.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

  • I am unable to update my Adobe flash player. How do I temporarily TURN Mozilla Foxfire off so it can update?

    Often I get messages that say 'turn off Mozilla Firefox' in order for software to update. ie. Adobe Flash Player.
    But I don't know how to turn Mozilla Firefox.. off so I can update.
    Heeeellllp please?

    Simply close all open Firefox windows/tabs before running the update installer.
    Note that you will have to SAVE the update installer, then close Firefox, navigate in Windows Explorer to wherever you saved the update, and double-click on it to run the update installer.

  • My Adobe Flash Player keeps crashing and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the plug-in.

    I am using Windows 8.1 64-bit on an HP notebook with an Intel i7 processor. I have run every diagnostic test using my Norton program and have not encountered any issues. Whenever I load websites or go to play a video on YouTube I get the error message "The adobe flash player plugin has crashed". I have removed that program from my computer and then reloaded the particular program, but it still will not work.

    Try with Flash beta version

  • PROBLEMS WITH INSTALLING DOWNLOADED FILES OF LATEST ADOBE FLASH PLAYER UPDATE

    after downloading the files to update my adobe flash player, I get the "DOWNLOADS" window pop up as it usually does. So I go to "double-click" on it to install the latest update, BUT NOTHING HAPPENS!!!! No other window popping up to ask my permission or no other window asking me to "RUN".

Right now I have no idea what Im supposed to do, as everytime I've needed to download before its downloaded AND allowed me to double click in order to install new/latest updates. so I dont have a clue why not now. I have NOT changed any settings from last time either

    "If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
    Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
    As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
    I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
    Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.
