Why get error msg, "failed to register," when downloading Flash Player

turned off all firewalls, virus protection and popup blockers
downloaded flash player uninstall and install
ran both and still got subject error msg

Hi H, Following are the procedures for the Uninstall and Install of Flash Player.
You may want to print these instructions out to make it easier for you to follow. Don't connect back to the Internet until
you get to step #10.
1. Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
2. Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for Internet Explorer:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
3. Disconnect from the Internet
4. Close all browsers, check system tray for any applications using Flash and disable
5. Disable McAfee per instructions and McAfee Firewall- You don't have to disable the Windows Firewall
6. Click on the Uninstaller and RUN. When it is finished, Reboot
7. Check to make sure McAfee is still disabled, then check your Flash folder and make sure no files are listed. If there are
any files in the Flash folder, RUN the Uninstaller again. Then Reboot, and check the Flash folder. Check McAfee before you
run the Installer and make sure it did not become enabled on the last Reboot(restart).
8. Run the Installer. When finished, Reboot Once.
9. Re-enable McAfee and the Firewall
10. Re-connect back to the Internet.
Go here and test: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about
Check your Flash folder and post back what files are there. Also find in ALL add ons the Shockwave Flash Object..ActiveX Control...Flash10e.ocx (version 10.0.45.2) and make sure it is enabled. Post that info back also.
Hokiejsv, I know this takes time, but since McAfee re-enables itself on the reboot(restart) of your computer, it must be checked. Otherwise it will block the installation of the ActiveX Control which must be installed in order for Flash Player to work.
If you have any questions, please ask before you start.
Thanks,
eidnolb

I get error "audio format not compatable" when downloading music from the itunes store

I get error "audio format not compatable" when syncing ipod classic. Music purchased from itunes store.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

Receiving an error message when downloading Flash Player 11

I am not able to complete downloading Flash Player 11 as I receive an error message. Please help. Thank you.

For Flash Player, I would recommend downloading and installing the following file:
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe
I'm not sure what to do for Norton, you'll want to contact them or post on their forum for assistance. For IE, I'd recommend rebooting and trying to update again. If it still fails, you might want to try the manual update located here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35934&WT.mc_id=rss_allproducts_ie

When downloading flash player an error actionlist not found?

Hmm, not an error I'm familiar with. A screenshot would be really helpful.
Once you've taken a screenshot (I'd really like to follow up on that), please give the offline installer a shot:

I cannot get rid of the permissions box when using flash player in firefox

Hi
I have explored on the web about this problem. When attempting to use flash player in firefox, I cannot click on the allow button to allow my video camera and microphone to be used on sites. I CAN go to Global settings and allow the sites by putting their URL, but this makes no difference, the little permissions box keeps appearing and won't go away.
Anyone know what else to try if changing global setting permissions doesn't work?
Barry

This sounds like a bug. The direction that we're heading is to have the browsers present these permission dialogs, and to eliminate them from Flash completely. It is unlikely these native dialogs will support an "always allow" or "remember" option.
If you're not able to click the button in the dialog when it's displayed, that's problematic. We have a couple things in the pipeline to make the dialog bigger. Usually those problems are resolution specific, although if there's moving video behind the dialog, that can trip our security controls. We do a bunch of checks to ensure that the dialog you're clicking isn't obscured by something else, so that we're sure you know that you're clicking and approve button.
There is an improvement in the pipeline to make these dialogs bigger. They were originally designed for 640x480 screens (they've been around *that* long), and they're way too small on modern high-density displays.
Anyway, you're welcome to file a bug at http://bugbase.adobe.com/. Please be sure to include a link to the problem content, and the configuration you're using (OS and browser version, and screen resolution would be particularly useful -- these are often resolution-dependent issues).

"Server Not Found" Message when downloading Flash Player

Hello,
I am trying to download Macromedia Flash Player using my
Firefox browser, but when I click on "Download Now" an error
message appears:
"Server not found
Firefox can't find the server at fpdownload.macromedia.com.
* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's
network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or
proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."
There is no such problem when I use Internet Explorer, but my
preferred browser is Firefox. Is there any reason why Firefox can't
access the server? Or is there another site I can download Flash
from?
I downloaded the latest Firefox version a couple of days ago,
v1.5.0.2
I use Windows ME.
Thanks,
HeywoGr

sounds like a local issue on your end with firefox. I can
connect with FF here:
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
Maybe restart FF?

I m getting Error Code 403 and 404 when downloading podcast series

I was able to download the first 24 episodes to The Read podcast but now when I try to download the latest episode I m getting either error 403 or 404 and that happens when I try to download on my Ipod touch 4, my Iphone, and Itunes on my computer. I can t even play the episode. Can anyone help me?

It's not possible to download any episodes from this podcast. The originator has messed up his server so that it is demanding authorization. Only he (or the people running his server) can deal with this.

Why Can't I Download Flash Player?

I have repeatedly tried to download Flash Player after getting pop-up messages from Adobe that tell me I cannot open attachments to emails because I need Flash Player 9.0 or higher. The messages say to download the latest Flash Player click here. I follow the instructions to the letter and get a message that the download of Flash Player 10 has successfully been completed. Then the next time I try to open an email attachment I get the same failure message. I have also gotten led to an Adobe tutorial entitled Flash Player | 64-bit operating systems which directs me to select the 32-bit Internet Explorer system on my computer by going to Start>Programs. I followed the download instructions using the 32-bit IE system and the download message says that Flash Player 10.0 has been successful. But I still cannot open the email attachments and still get the message that I need to download Flash Player 9.0 or higher. If I go to my complete list of programs on the Install or Remove Programs, I find a listing for several Adobe products such as Acrobat, ReaderX, Digital each of which has a size in bytes. Flash Player 10 is listed but there is nothing shown in the byte size column.
My computer is a Hewlett-Packard Pavilion with an Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2220 @ 2.40 GHz 64-bit operating system using Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2. The default browser which I use is Internet Explorer 64-bit.
I'm 80 years old and trying hard to get along with computers. Please know that any help provided on this frustrating problem will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. And please make your suggestions in great detail without assuming I know very much.

Hi James, Check and make sure the Shockwave Flash Object is Enabled in your IE manage addons.
In FF, look for the Shockwave Flash plugin and make sure it's Enabled.
Make sure you are using the 32bit browser and not the 64bit.
Also check this for IE: (you want this OFF, not on)
To turn on ActiveX Filtering
In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, point to Safety, and then click ActiveX Filtering.
To turn off ActiveX Filtering on a specific website
In Internet Explorer, click the Filter button in the Address bar, and then click Turn off ActiveX Filtering.
To turn off ActiveX Filtering on all websites
In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, point to Safety, and then click ActiveX Filtering.
I don't have time to check on why Chrome is not working. Make sure your Anti-Virus is not blocking.
Also when you are trying to Install, all browser windows must be Closed.
Will check back later, but it's best to start you own topic as Pat suggested and flutie has done.

Why do i keep getting error msg #1403 when updating ipod software in itunes

why do i keep getting error msg #1403 when updating ipod software in itunes

I Googled an found no good solutions. II would try:
- Making sure that you have the latest version of iTunes, 10.6.
- Disable firewall and antivirus.
What iOS is currently on the iPod?

Why did I get error msg that "MSVCR80.dll is missing" when I tried to update iTunes to 11.1.4? Never had such an issue before when updating iTunes.

Can anyone help with the question, above? Why an error msg that "MSVCR80.dll is missing" when attempting to update iTunes to version 11.1.4 on my laptop?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.
