Why can't I get Flashplayer to work on Firefox?

Whenever I try to install Flashplayer on Firefox it says I can't install it. It gives me the unavailable symbol and wont go any further. Help please!!! I am on Windows Vista and I'm using Firefox as IE9 is rubbish!!!!!!

Hi, I don't know the problem you are having as I've never heard of that. You need to Uninstall first. Try this method and if you don't want Flash Player Installed in IE, then skip that part.
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
If you use Norton or McAfee Anti-Virus, you would want to disable that also as they can block the Shockwave Flash Object.
Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
Check to make sure the Anti-Virus is still Disabled
Run the Installer for IE, Run the Installer for FF and when finished, Reboot.
Then go to this test site and test each browser:

You may want to print these instructions to make it easier to follow. If you have any questions, let me know.
See if that works better.

Why can't I get Imikimi to work on firefox?

Why won't Imikimi work with firefox? It works with IE but is very slow.

There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.

A Playlist idiot. Why can't I get this to work?

In iTunes I have music Playlists set to shuffle (blue double arrow button) and audio books Playlist set no shuffle. I have been unable to get my iPod to follow these settings. A suggested work around is to use the iPod Settings to set the shuffle function to "songs" when playing music and then switching to off for audio books. There has to be a better way. How do I set the Playlists on my iPod to function the same as it does on iTunes?

LeftyLucy,
Using your process are you able to set your iPod to shuffle then listen to the audio book without it shuffling the chapters? I have tried your suggestion with the iPod setting set to shuffle and the chapters shuffled. This is the issue from my original post. I want to listen to music with the shuffle function and listen to audio books (no shuffle) without having to change the settings every time I switch.
Keep in mind that is not a purchased audio nor a imported book.
Using a tip from the following post:

I have attempted to make the audio book file into an authenticate file but that did not help.

Why can't I get actions to work? BAFFLED

Hi, I'm a graphic designer, really not up to speed in the web world. I made myself an idiosyncratic little website using edge animate, learning from the built it lessons (I would appreciate any feedback concerning as I'm stumbling around here, if anyone can be bothered )
I wanted to add an email link to the end of it, also, some kind of 'skip to the end' feature that appears from the beginning, and eventually a link to a portfolio site. But I can't get ANY actions to work.
However, when I make a new file, I can do all these things. I can draw a rectangle, and make it clickable so that it jumps to the end, or opens an external site. It does this as expected, when I 'preview in browser'. But my main animation that I've spent hours mucking around with, does nothing. Mouse clicks do absolutely nothing...
So, I'm baffled, and any help would be appreciated greatly.
Here's my site, its a simple html thing with the edge animation embedded. I'd never offer these services for a client, but I thought I might be able to cobble something together for myself. As I said, any feedback would be welcome, as I'm stumbling around a bit. Ok a lot.

thank you!

Thanks!
I'll past the code below, but actually it think this eror relates to a symbol I created when I was trying to get an email link working, and I forgot to delete it. Though it didn't work, I'm not sure it has much to do with WHY I couldn't get actions to work in the first place, as nothing else I tried, very simple things like a link to an external webpage worked either. Yet they did when I attempted it with a new animate project. Not sure.
the whole project is here as a zipped file.
http://www.antenna.net.nz/animatebafflement/published.zip
and here is that code as mentioned. And thanks for your help!
(function($,Edge,compId){var Composition=Edge.Composition,Symbol=Edge.Symbol;
//Edge symbol: 'stage'
      Symbol.bindElementAction(compId, symbolName, "${_arrow}", "click", function(sym, e) {
         // insert code for mouse click here
         sym.stop();
(function(symbolName){
})("stage");
   //Edge symbol end:'stage'
   //=========================================================
   //Edge symbol: 'Symbol_1'
   (function(symbolName) {
      Symbol.bindElementAction(compId, symbolName, "${_email}", "click", function(sym, e) {
         // insert code for mouse click here
         var emailer = window.open("mailto:[email protected]?subject=Are you my designer?");// sym.$("name") resolves an Edge Animate element name to a DOM
      //Edge binding end
   })("Symbol_1");
   //Edge symbol end:'Symbol_1'
})(jQuery, AdobeEdge, "EDGE-20179367");

HT3529 why can't I get iMessage to work on iPad1?

I can't get iMessage to work on iPad1

Close the Messages app, then turn it off in the settings, reboot your iPad and after it starts up, turn Messages on again and see if it works.
To close messages completely - Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the rhe messages icon. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

UDP in applet? Why can't I get it to work???? How do I assign permissions?

I have signed my applet, and everything is cool, but how do I let the user allow me to open UDP datagram packets?
I have seen a whole bunch of stuff about policy files, but Sun doesn't expect the user to have to run some wierd policy tool right?? How can it happen that the user allows me to do whatever I want ... I signed my Jar, created certificate, but how do I get the policies to be sent with my Jar?? The user should only need to click once or twice to say yes I trust this applet, and I want to do whatever i want ... Why can't I open datagram sockets?
On another note, the reason I want to do this is to create a game, where I need a fast connection between players. I don't want to bounce everything through the server for obvious reasons, but I don't want to use the normal Socket either between players since that is supposed to be slower than datagram ... my plan is to use datagram sockets between players for gameplay connectivity, and ServerSocket/Socket between server and each player (for updating scores, etc, less traffic) ... is this a good plan? do I have the right idea?

Why can't I open datagram sockets?1. Wrong code
2. Untrusted calling code (javascript)
3. Proxy
4. 3rd party jars not found
Do you get an exception if so what is it?

Why can't I get albums to work for me?

I'm struggling with creating a new site for my business that uses albums to display my portfolio images. I have everything working like it should inside iWeb, but when I publish to a folder or upload it to a website, the albums just work as images and do not link to the gallery of images inside.
I have two galleries on my portfolio page. Within iWeb, I can click on either album and get the images to open in slideshow and other modes. For some reason, though, the link is broken to prevent the album from working as a link to the images within when it is translated to a working webpage. What am I doing wrong? I dragged an iPhoto gallery to the gallery page to create each album and am able to do all of the navigation I would expect within iWeb.
Thanks,
Ron

Why can't I get messages to work in new iPad?

I have new wireless ipad and the ipad1 When trying to use messages it works in ipad1 but I get Could not sign in Please check your network settings and try again message. the facetime won't activate either. my network works because I can get online . What am I doing wrong?
I use same apple id for both.

No iMessage and no facetime on my new iPad 3. It won't let me authorize either with my apple ID. but I still get the "Could not sign in, Please check network settings and try again" which I have numeroous time.
My network works fine for everything else.
I can do the iMessage on orginal ipad with no problem which I set up with my apple id. This is very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated.
My imac is on snow leopard and all the apps download with no problems so why not able to use iMessage and facetime on my new iPad 3??? I did not set up the iPad 3 with my computer.

Why can't we get flashplayer to download??????

We have tried unsuccessfully over and over again with all the instructions we can get from the net to get this "you know what" to work and it won't. It seems to me that Adobe knows they have a major problem with this application and won't just say it.
Why don't the end users do something about it?? We the cosumers are getting mad at everyone involved!

What is your operating system, version & edition?
What is your web browser?
What is the exact problem you are encountering?

Why can't I get facetime to work?

I have activated facetime the iphone, the wifi works but when someone calls using facetime, the caller has a ring tone and it just rings and rings. Nothing happens on the receiving end. However a missed call message comes up once the caller hangs up. Does anyone know why this happens and how this can be solved?

I have the same issue. My little bro told me to go into the wifi settings, go to advanced, and change the DNS sever from whatever to "8.8.8.8". i was skeptical at first but it worked. The problem now is I still can't facetime with anyone! So maybe its not such a good idea after all. My macbook pro is brand new and came with Lion pre-installed. the next issue too is that i noticed the mac app store is still selling the 1.02 version of the facetime app. i checked my one and noticed I have version 1.1! I think that this is the real problem. I tried buying the app on the App store and it told me to delete the facetime app I have on my MBP because my facetime is a "later version of the app". I tried deleting it but the OS won't allow me to delete it because its already integrated in the system! I realize now that this might not be helping......

Why can't I get it to work?

I recently established a paid @mac.com account. I entered a user name and password & did the rest of the required things.
A week or so later it occurred to me that I should add the address to my email section (Entourage). Once I had gone through the routine I was informed that that name was already taken.
Well, guess who took it: I did!
Why won't the system recognize that?
I'm sort of semidistgusted.
My system backup requests also fall on deaf ears.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Entourage is the Microsoft email program which comes with Office 2004. Mail.app is the native Mac email client.
If you're not using an Exchange server, don't use Entourage.
I'm not sure how you'd go about importing mail, but the setup is pretty simple, once you get the relevant info from your ISP, or from your existing mail setup.
What you need to know (from your ISP):
- use POP3 or IMAP? (typically, they use POP3)
- username and password
- incoming POP3 or IMAP server name
- outgoing (SMTP) server name
The Mac mail setup thingy should prompt you through it. If your ISP says 'we don't support Mac', it doesn't mean it won't work perfectly. You just need the info listed above.

Why can't I get FaceTime to work on ipad2

I've tried to do the 8.8.8.8 on the settings, I have everything in working order. I never used FaceTime prior to now even though my iPad is over a year old. I have always used my iPhone. I don't understand why it won't let me get it going. Any suggestions would be great.
