Why does Adobe say to close Safari when i have nothing open?

I'm trying to update Adobe Flash Player on my Mac and it's almost done downloading but it says "please close the following programs to continue" and says Safari under that. I don't have anything open (except just now 'cause I have a question) so I don't get why it's saying to close it.

It's not enough to close the Safari window, you need to quit the Safari process.

  • Why does it say "unsupported language/platform" when I try to download Adobe Standard? I have the latest updates of IE and Google Chrome and have tried both.

    Why does it say "unsupported language/platform" when I try to download Acrobat Standard? I have the latest updates of IE and Google Chrome and have tired both.

    The message doesn't mention IE or Chrome - it mentions language/platform.
    So...what is the language of your system?
    And what is your platform - by which we mean for example Windows Vista or Mac OS Lion.

  • WHY DOES IT SAY BATTERY NOT CHARGING WHEN I TRY TO CHARGE MY IPAD??

    WHY DOES IT SAY BATTERY NOT CHARGING WHEN I TRY TO CHARGE MY IPAD ???

    How are you trying to charge it, via a computer or the wall plug ? If a computer, then a lot of computers (especially older ones) generally do not provide enough power to their USB ports to charge the iPad at a sufficient rate - it may still be charging slowly, and should be a bit quicker if the iPad's screen is off (if you leave it for a while and then disconnect it from your computer you may find that it's battery percentage has gone up). The wall charger is usually the most efficient way to charge the iPad.
    If the wall charger then have you tried a reset to see if it charges after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If that doesn't work then have you tried a different charger and/or cable ? Do you know anybody else with an iPad so that you can try their charger and cable and they can try yours ?
    And for info typing in capitals is considered SHOUTING.

  • HT3702 Why does it say invalid security code when I'm prompted to sign in?

    Why does it say invalid security code when I'm prompted to sign in. I have intered my security code from my credit card several times. It will not allow me to use the app store, even for free purchases.

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

  • Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 Windows XP Thanks.

    Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 . Using Windows XP Driving me nuttier! Thanks.
    (Is is that MicroNetFrame Asst thing?)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I installed latest version

    Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.
    It was just a hunch that MircoNetFrame was causing the problem. I disabled it as you suggested, and I still have the problem.
    I just changed under Tools>Options> General - had checked "ask me every time" under downloads, so instead of asking me, FF saved the download to I know not where. It no longer saves it to the desktop, leaving a duplicate in "my documents".
    In windows, I have found unless one knows the entire name of the document, one can never find anything. It isn't listed under recent ''''''__. I can't recall the nomenclature, but the
    capability is ridiculous. So, I don't know where that file I just downloaded is!
    I downloaded a PDF file, but this happens with all DL's. It was so easy to have them all stacked in one place and I could recall
    what I had and when I downloaded it easily.
    Do you have any other suggestions other that going back to the old version of FF, which I would rather not do?
    Thanks again for your time, it is very considerate to help a complete stranger, I must say. Sounds like something I might do! Cheers!

  • Why does it say Apple ID disabled when I try to update an app

    Why does it say my Apple ID is disabled when I try to update an app.? My ID works for everything else. Also, I thought with the new iOS update that apps are supposed to update themselves but mine haven't.

    On your Mac/PC open iTunes (make sure it is updated). On the tabs on the left click on "iTunes Store". This will change the window on the right to the iTunes store. The top right corner should have your Apple ID or Sign In written. If there is an Apple ID written click on it and Sign Out. The corner should then change to "Sign In".
    Now click on Sign In and sign in with the wrong/incorrect Apple ID that you no longer wish to use or update from.
    Once logged in, click on the down arrow that shows when you move the pointer on the top right corner where it should now show the apple id, and select Account.
    The page that opens up should have a section called "iTunes in the Cloud" with a tab on the side saying "Manage Devices".
    Click on Manage Devices. Its should list your iPhone or iPad that you no longer wish to use with this Apple ID. And click Remove.
    Once its confirmed click "Done" and from the top right corner select Sign Out.

  • Why does Flash install completion close tabs when re-opening Safari?

    Here is a link to the last time this was brought to the attention of the Adobe team on 9/11/2014: Safari Browser Tab Cleared After Flash Installation
    Is this something that will be fixed soon or does Adobe just not care? It can be very time consuming to track down tabs that were left open for various reasons. Please fix this and have Safari re-open with tabs that were open before a Flash player update.

    It's something that we're aware of, but it's not trivial to solve.  It's definitely on our radar, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

  • Why does my internet slow WAY down when I have camera wirelessly connected

    This is a great camera for my purpose, but for some reason it is slowing my internet download to crawling speed when I have it connected wirelessly. Btw don't know if having it done wired does any good.
    It used to work fine (without slowing down my internet) until I added a second wvc210 camera, so I removed the second camera and its still sloooow.  If I have it disabled (unplugged) then my internet is fine.
    Any suggestions?  Thanks for any advice.

  • Why does ADOBE use the Download manager when you download from thier website??

    it always seems to cause problems. Are they not aware of that?
    I know people will say to download elsewhere, but I think the average user is going to try to get it directly off the website
    Then if you go to
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    How the heck do you know which one to use? Like I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit with Vista SP2 and use only IE7 browser
    so is it the msi??? or the exe???  I mean why can't they just make it easier??

    Do these links to he flash player that bypass the Download manager, give the correct, secure, and most importantly full version of the Flash player?
    and how does it appear when it downloads? Just that flash pop up that asks if you agree to terms, then the install button?
    I may be going more this way, rather than the "normal" way. I always delete the download manager after I install the flash player anyway

  • Why does Adobe say Mozilla doesn't allow download of "Reader"?

    While trying to install Adobe Products (Reader), the installation screen instructs that if you use Mozilla, then you must read the installation instructions. Pressing the "button" does not take you to the installation instructions. However, I've had input that Adobe support says Mozilla has trouble with registering Adobe files.
    Irrespective of the problem that may exist between your companys' software, the Federal Government uses Adobe almost exclusively for their document downloading, and "filling in" on-line. If they are correct, then I must go back to I.E., if I am to continue interfacing with Government sites.
    Please help me. I'm trying to get rid of Microsoft, not go back to them.
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://www.adobe.com

    Generally I don't know of any problems using Adobe Reader with Firefox - mine works just fine, and both install from the web (via the Adobe DLM) and offline installation (downloading the complete installer) works just fine.
    When you go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/ you should end up on the Adobe Reader download page.
    Disable the McAfee Security Scan offered below, and click the Download button.
    You should now end up on the "Thank you"-page and get a yellow line at the very top of the browser asking if you want to allow Adobe to install the DLM online-installer system. Here you can click the "Allow" button to start installation of the DLM, which in turn should start downloading the Reader installation.
    If you don't get this box, some security software (I see you have Norton) could be preventing it from showing up at all.
    Or, you should be able to get around the problem on that "Thank you"-page by clicking the link in the 2nd line of the text - it says something like "If the download does not start, click here to download" of which the last part of the line is a link to the complete Adobe Reader (offline) installation package.
    Download this and run the file, that should install Adobe Reader 9.2 with full integration in Firefox.
    When the installation is complete (and your system may need to be restarted after this), please remember also to start the Adobe Reader from the new icon on your desktop (or from Start menu), and go to menu "Help" -> "Check for updates" to get the latest updates installed - current fully updated version is 9.3.2, but Adobe does not offer the fully updated version as a complete download.
    As an alternative, you could also install and use the [http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ Foxit Reader] - this also works very well for most PDF-files and online PDF forms. It has the advantage of being much smaller, faster, and somewhat safer as it's not as widely used as Adobe Reader. The disadvantage is that it may not support every single type of PDF file, althou I have yet to meet a file it couldn't handle.
    Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help other users with similar issues.
