Why doesn't the latest update of Adobe Flash work well?

Well for me it doesn't.
This is my 3rd time downloading it, it'll eventually stop working again like it did the first two times and I'm going to have to reinstall it again.
I went to see if I still had it by going to: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
I see the moving red dot, but in step two, everything in red is blurry/faded.
Shows which version I have, but I can't find it anywhere on my computer. I have the latest version.
Also every website that I visit that supports flash tells me to update to the newest version, which I ALREADY HAVE.
What can I do?

  • I have the latest version of Firefox (5.0) and the latest update for Adobe Flash plugin and Adobe Flash keeps crashing! Why???

    Every single time I try to use any game that requires Adobe Flash plugin it crashes. I have tried clearing the cache, rebooting, and nothing works. This problem has occurred ever since I updated to Firefox v. 5.0. Help!!

    sorry i was typing fast and didnt check spelling and stuff

  • Why doesn't the latest update replace Flash10b.ocx v10.0.22.87 with the latest Version 10.0.32.18 on Vista X64 Ultimate?

    The Secuna Online Scanner reports that Flash10b.ocx in directory C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\  should be replaced by version 10.0.32.18 even after I run the update installer pointed to by Secunia. I would note that there is no C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\ directory on my system. The Flash10b.ocx file is located in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\ directory and is still version 10.0.22.87 according to the properties dialog for the file. I should note that Firefox is my default web browser but of course IE is installed and working.

    I assumed that the updated file would also be Flash10b.ocx but it appears that it becomes Flash10c.ocx and I did not notice the additional file.

  • Why won't the latest version of Adobe Flash Install?

    I keep trying to access things that need the latest version of Flash, and each time I'm directed to their site, I download flash with no problems, even install it with no problems, but as soon as I'm done "installing" and I try to view the things that needed the new version of flash, they still say I need to install the latest version of flash. I have kept installing flash over and over with no luck. It's like it's not installing at all. Any way to get around this? Has anyone else had this problem or something similar?

    Are these install attempts from an administrative user account?
    While at the Adobe Flash Player download page, are you selecting the PowerPC version from the pull-down menu (regardless that the Intel version is labeled universal binary)?
    After the install completes, does /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin show the expected version number (9.0.124.0 as of this morning)?

  • Why won't the latest version of adobe flashplayer work?

    I've successfully uploaded it several times now, yet any time Adobe Flashplayer is needed to view something (such as an ECard or facebook game) it tells me I need to upload it.  Anyone else have this problem???

    Be sure you are downloading the Flash installer straight from Adobe's site.  DO NOT EVER download from any other site!  There is currently a trojan going around that fools you into downloading a fake Flash installer.  See:
    http://www.reedcorner.net/news.php/?tag=flashback
    If you have downloaded the latest version directly from Adobe and it's not working, see the link Carolyn gave you.

    Hi Deb,
    Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience so far.
    I am not sure if you already tried this, but in case not, try to update Muse via Creative cloud directly.
    Start creative cloud application manager, if you dont have it, you can download it from here,
    Adobe - Adobe Application Manager : For Windows : Adobe Application Manager
    Login using your adobe id, once you are in, switch to Apps, and you should see the Update for Muse, click Update.
    Let me know if you get any error or warning.
    Thanks.

  • Mac OSX SUS - Why aren't the latest updates offered for some software

    For instance, on my sus, Quicktime 7.6.4 is the latest version offered for leopard. 7.6.6 is available on Apple's site. Is there actually a 7.6.6 update others can see on their sus, or is this a universal issue - and why aren't the latest updates available?
    Thanks

    I just checked my 10.6.3 SUS server at it appears to have that Quicktime 7.6.6 update listed. The size is listed as 68.5 MB and the post date is 03/30/10. My SUS Server Admin interface shows a "Last Check" time of Apr 13, 2010 3:00:00 AM.
    I have wiped and reinstalled my SUS server several times dealing with the "missing 10.6.3" updates bug reported many times in these forums so that may be why my server is displaying the Quicktime 7.6.6 update.

  • What's the best way to update my Mac with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

    I've been getting prompts whenever I look at certain websites to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.  I'm skeptical as to responding to those prompts.  What is the best way to update my Mac Pro with the latest version of Adobe Flash Player?

    You might also want to consider uninstalling Adobe Flash... I currently don't have it installed and haven't needed to install it.  Most websites are now coded in HTML 5 so that the iOS devices can actually visit them.  I can still watch YouTube videos et al.  About the only thing I can't do is play Flash games... but they're a resource hog anyways. 
    Try going without for a day or two and see just how many sites you visit no longer require it.  A lot of people keep it installed out of habit, not out of necessity.  If you have Flash installed, visit a site and it's out of date, it will tell you to update your Flash.  What it won't do is tell you is that had Flash not been installed, it would have used the HTML 5 code instead.  Think about it... if an iOS device can't run Flash at all... it can't visit this site if it were written only to use Flash.  What site would eliminate such a huge portion of their market base?  You'd be surprised at how many sites use HTML 5.  Uninstall Flash and see for yourself.

    When I tried to download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player (10.1.85.3), nothing happened. Then something popped up....

    so I decided to click the "manual" button and a download page to download a file named "Gp" popped. Seeing that I just clicked cancel then suddenly my computer froze. I tried going to the adobe download page again and it happens all over again. Please Help Me :(

    You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.
    *http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.
