When I download adobe flash 10 on my windows vista computer, it doesn't work.

I've not had flash for about eight or nine months, and have had the same problem. I've tried everything. I use FF for my browser, and I've tried downloading it just for FF, and even have resorted to trying to download it for IE. Please, please, please help me get to the bottom of this!

Hi, Ok, if you just want to Install Flash Player in FF. To make sure that you have a clean Uninstall, review or print out a copy of the Uninstall instructions. Download to your Desktop the Uninstaller and SAVE it to your Desktop.
Using the Firefox browser do the following:
Download the Flash Player Installer for FF and SAVE it to your Desktop:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Follow the instructions for the Uninstall, then close all browsers and Run it from your Desktop. When it is finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
Keeping your browsers closed, then Run the Installer from your Desktop and when it is finished, Reboot your computer.
Then open your FF browser and go to this test site:

This should work for you, let me know.
Thanks,

    Did you try downloading Flash Player from the standard download page http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ ?
    What happens when you try?
    What is your operating system?

  • When I download Adobe Reader, it asks for a password.  It doesn't accept my Adobe password.  What password is it searching for?

    Then try leaving the password field blank and hitting enter. If that doesn't work, you have a password (and would be beyond the help available in the Adobe forums).

  • Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?

    Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?
    On another note, the iPhone tells me that it's ''busy'' when opening a photo on the computer.
    (I tried restarting my PC, connecting via another USB port, importing using PhotoStream, etc...)

    Are you using the front or rear camera? When you say they are low quality, are you referring to file/pixel size, or how the picture looks? As far as upside down, how are you holding the phone? Older versions of Windows have issues reading the Metadata from the pictures and will not display the same.

  • When i download adobe flash player a black box pops up and it doesn't work.

    I have downloaded adobe flash player multiple times. I have a windows 7 hp laptop when it gets to the end of the download i click run and a black box appears and the flash player doesn't work. what should i do?

    Hi albinaaa,
    Thank you for confirming the drivers are up to date.  I apologize for the confusion in terminology.  We refer to the installer downloaded from get.adobe.com/flashplayer as the online installer because it is simply an installer shim, less than 2MB that then downloads and installs Flash Player silently.  This requires users to be 'online' for the installation process to work.  What we refer to as the offline installers are the full installers (roughly 15 - 18 MB) that you download and then install Flash Player, which does not require an internet connection as nothing is downloaded silently in the background during installation.
    As I mentioned before, we have received these reports of the online installer displaying without text, however, we have not been able to reproduce, and therefore, the reason I asked you to try the offline installer, since we have not received these reports with the offline installer.

    try using this uninstaller.
    if that doesn't work, maybe you should try a different browser.
    http://filehippo.com/download_firefox/
    you'll get a 2nd flash install for this.
    when you go to control panel>programs and features,
    you'll see 2 separate entries for flash.
    1 is for internet explorer, the other is for firefox.
    maybe the 2nd flash will work.

  • Trying to install Adobe Flash: Internet Explorer 9; Windows Vista 32 bit

    During installation process and when prompted, I close IE. However, adobe executable prompts, again, to close IE.  Repeated attempts to "continue" installation result in same message to close IE.
    I have no Flash versions on my computer.
    Help!

    Probably you still have IE process running even you close IE and disappeared from your desktop. You should check IE process in taskmanager and kill it for Flash Player installation. Or you can restart your computer and run downloaded/saved 'install_flashplayer11x32ax_***_aih.exe' file.

  • I have tried repeatedly to install flash player on my Windows Vista Computer.  I have tried all the

  • When I downloaded adobe, Skype, creative cloud, they all get seen as external devices. I can see them under finder, external devices as a list. Is this ok or incorrect?

    I  have Mac Book Pro.
    I  did  a  clean  install  of  Yosemite.
    Now when I download adobe flash player, Skype and other applications they are seen in the devices section  of finder window. ( with a hard disk icon to their left)
    Please can someone advise if this is fine ? 
    I would  be  downloading many applications, will they all sit under devices section ?
    Please help out urgently.
    Thanks

    Ok, I even found the Export tab -> Manage modules, and I see the Photoshop.com module. (Which kind of helps? Kind of.... But is that a separate storage area from my Creative Cloud drive?  I believe it is seperate, yes?)    I tried to drag Creative Cloud link into the Manage modules, and that didn't work.  So, is there no Creative Cloud Export Module in Bridge?
    That just doesn't make any sense to me that there is not seamless interconnectivity between a storage drive and an application that is intended to map and "bridge" all of your stored data for easier project integration.

  • I have a mac book pro and have already downloaded adobe flash player. However when i go to watch a video it says "Block Plug In". But my adobe is already up to date. Can someone help me to fix this so i can watch videos?

    I have a mac book pro and have already downloaded adobe flash player. However when i go to watch a video it says "Blocked Plug In". But my adobe is already up to date. Can someone help me to fix this so i can watch videos?

    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 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    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.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 6
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 7
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
    Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
    Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 8
    Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
