Why do I have to keep installing adobe flash 11 player in my computer?

I have installed adobe flash player 11 various versions many times in my Windows 7 64-bit computer. It seems like once a week I'm having to do this. Why do you have to install the same version so many times?

I have been having the exact same problem since buying my new HP Powerbook laptop. Windows 7 64bit running IE9. The strange thing is it is rather sporadic I can watch numerous youtube vids fine, and then all of a sudden, I start getting the error where the Exclamaition Mark shows up and then other times when there is a notice that HTML5 or Flash is not installed. I then reinstall Flash, and vids work againg until the next time this happens. The problem also sometimes appear to clear up after rebooting. Why does this keep happening?

You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5655?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US which also covers ‘blocked plug-in’.

How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player?

I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image". I don't know what this is and I cannot see anything that requires Flash Player. What am I doing wrong?

I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image". I don't know what that is, but I cannot view anything that requires flash player. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help, but that didn't do any good either. I have been double clicking from the download files, double clicking on the "install adobe flash player", closing the anti virus, closing Safari, watching the install progress and clicking finish. It indicates that "flash player" is installed, but every time I try to view something requiring flash player, it tells me I must download it. It shows up in the "system preference" and from there I can make some changes, but it still won't let me view anything requiring "flash player". It does not show up in my apps like Adobe Reader does. It shows up in the "downloaded files" section of "Finder". I'm getting really perplexed over my inability to get this right.

Why do I have to continually download Adobe? Wouldn't downloading it once keep it on my computer?

Adobe Flash Player is blocked because of security reasons.
1. System Preferences > Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All
     Press the "Delete All" button
     Install Adobe Flash Player.

    Follow the prompts.
    Quit Safari.
    Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
2. Allow Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Internet Plug-ins > "Allow plug-ins"
    Enable it.
    Press " Manage Website Settings" button for more options.

Why Do I Have Multiple Versions of Adobe Flash Plugins in FireFox

Hello,
I usually have 2 versions of Adobe Flash plugins installed in Firefox at the same time: the most recent version and the prior version which remains behind after an update. I usually disable the older version but sometimes this also affect the updated version leaving me without Flash capability in FireFox.
This week I updated FireFox's Adobe Flash plugin to 12.0.0.43 but was surprised to discover the 2 prior Flash versions also remained. Now Firefox had 3 versions of Adobe Flash plugins. I discovered the Adobe Flash uninstaller and uninstalled all Flash from my computer. Surprisingly when I reinstalled Flash player in FireFox, again 2 versions were installed: 12 and 11. I attempted to use the uninstaller on FireFox alone but it did not recognize the older Flash plugin, only the updated version 12.
The recent Adobe Flash update, version 12, is a 'Critical Security' update. Therefore, I am a bit anxious to resolve this issue. I hope you can assist me with this issue.
Thank you.
Windows 7
Home Premium (64 bit)
FireFox 26'''bold text'''

I might have thought the uninstaller would have found and deleted the old FlashPlayer. Maybe it was a custom install and in an odd location. (I suppose another possibility is that registry entries are wrong).
Try totally uninstalling FlashPlayer using the Windows Control panel, before re-installing. Then check with the FlashPlayer uninstaller before reinstalling again.
Note whilst doing this that Windows Internet Explorer has its own FlashPlayer plugin that is separate. You will need to reinstall both the Fx fox & IE plugins afterwards. Also note that for 32bit Firefox you will need the 32 bit FlashPlayer.

Have to keep updating adobe flash player

I must update my adobe flash player every other day. I run windows 7, 64 bit.
I play many games, i keep getting a message that my adobe flash player has to be updated. It's not possble that there are this many updates. If this continues I have to find a different flash player. This is extremely annoying;
I use internet explorer 9.
I starting reading thru other things on this forum and I see I am not the only one with this problem. However, i am always getting the message that adobe flash was successfully installed. I am not going to uninstall my virus protection or all the other nonsense that other people have tried. If you offer a service it's supposed to work without all the nonsense that is being recommended by other people. I would rather pay for something and have it work then to go thru all this bs.
This is not our problem this is an adobe problem. Adobe should fix it

What is the Flash Player version you have currently installed? (See http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/)
What files do you have in
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash ?

i have the latest firefox 10.02 in win7 and even if firefox shows is installed my adobe flash is not working so i have to run the flash installer every time i start my pc.After this everything works fine until the next start when i have to run the flashinstaller again

There are two versions of the Flash Player plugin. One is ActiveX and only works in IE. It sounds like you have that one installed. The other one works in all other browsers.
What seems to be happening is that you have security software that's blocking one of those versions of Flash/restoring your computer state and so it gets uninstalled when you start your computer. The other possibility is that there are permission issues. Unfortunately, this isn't something that Firefox can control; it's a problem with the Flash installation (Firefox is dumb and just looks in the registry for a list of installed plugins to load).
Make sure that you're an admin on your computer when you try to install Flash and that you check your security settings. If that doesn't work, try posting to the [http://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer Adobe community forums] to see if other people have had similar issues and know how to address them.

Hi everyone,
I'm very new here so please be gentle. I have the above problem and have Googled it only to find very very many varied ways of solving this. Each one advising doing various technical things which have confused me.
I am running IE11 and Windows 7 Home Peremium 32bit.
Any advice of a non-confusing nature will be gratefully received.
Thank you

Difficulty installing adobe flash player on macbook air os yosemite

Hi.
I recently bought a Macbook Air, which runs OS Yosemite, and I have tried to install Adobe Flash Player on it. I got to the part where it is installing, and then it says "Please close Safari". I did that, then clicked "Retry". It still said "Please close Safari". I waited a few minutes, and then clicked "Retry" again. Same result. Can anyone help me?

Could you first try the steps outlined in this FAQ:

If that doesn't help, please try this installer:

No idea. What did the folks on the Adobe forums say when you posted there, since it's Adobe's software you're having trouble with?
