Why is the public Flash Player download version different from the SDLA download site?

Since last month, FP 11.1.102.55 has been available for the public to download and install. But the http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html still has 11.0.1.152.
What gives?

All downloads at http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html are 11.1.102.55
Maybe you have a cache somewhere from where you still obtain an old cached version?

Scam Flash Player Download Site

Apologies in advance if this is posted to the wrong forum.
Looking down the list, I couldn't find one that seemed more relevant.
There is a scam Flash Player download site at:
flashplayer.10-downloadcenter.com/
Typing "flash," "flash player," "flash player 10," and other obvious search terms into Google brings the site up at the top of the page.
It is using graphics that look very much like Adobe's trademarks which can lead people to believe the site is connected with Adobe. They are also using phrases such as "Flash Player 10" that would appear to be Adobe trademarks. The first time I looked at the site, I thought I was at an Adobe page because the trademark appeared to be there, and there was no notice that an Adobe trademark was being used - something one almost always sees at sites where a trademark in use is not owned by the site. If I were Adobe, I'd have my magnifying glass going over that site, looking for infringement. (Who knows - maybe they've already looked ... )
There is a lot of stuff on the page that could lead one to believe they are Adobe, offering enhanced software and services. And - bingo - selling is what they are doing. Get out your credit card to download their stuff - including Flash Player 9.
The trick, when reading the fine print, is that they are selling "memberships." I wonder how many people have downloaded Flash Player from this site, believing they are buying it directly from Adobe. My niece did. She's trying to get the charge removed from her credit card as I type this message.

Further information regarding suspicious actions of this site.
The site had been asked to cancel the transaction within two hours of it taking place. Some of the charges involved extra "premium" software sold along with the "Flash Player 10" download. An extra ~$10 for software that would supposedly increase download speeds greatly. The software all turned out to be PC only, with no mention of there being no Mac version, and no place to check. The site indicated that Flash Player 10 would be downloaded, but all that was available was Flash Player 9 - which was probably already on the machine. One also has to wonder whether their versions don't have zombie payloads.
An archive of the the purchase confirmation page was fortunately kept to save the confirmation numbers and other information. Among the information on the page was the way the charge would appear on the charge card. Checking the card company's invoice, no charge by that name existed. But there was a charge with a completely different label for about the right amount. Calling the (866) number got us to a phone center in India. Sure enough, the mis-labeled charge was the charge in question. The customer service person said that the amount will be refunded within 7 days. We'll see.
Note that an immediate request for cancellation had been made, so the charge shouldn't even have appeared. The site boasts a 7-day money-back guarantee.
I hope that someone, somewhere, will look into this site. I was looking for some kind of complaint link at Google, but haven't found one yet. The site appears not only in the search results, but they run an ad at the top of the Google search page - very visible.
Once again, I hope Adobe will take a look at this highly questionable site.

Flash Player download site tells me to disable my antivirus software

When I go to the official Flash Player download site (I'm using Firefox) it tells me, that I have to disable my antivirus software. Is that safe? I have heard about cases, that malware has infected a safe and widely used sites. After malware infection those sites says, that I have to disable my antivirus software. Is this "You may have to temporarily disable your antivirus software" message normal thing from Adobe and is it safe to download Flash Player although there's that message? Thanks in advance!

The key here is "may" - in most cases the installer works just fine with your AV software active. There are some rare instances where AV software may prevent FP from being installed; in these cases AV needs to be temporarily disabled. Disconnecting from the Internet during that time is probably advisable.

Why won't Adobe Flash Player download completely onto my new OS X 10.8.3?

I downloaded the installation app from the Adobe website, and went through the process of choosing how to receive updates and the like. But when the installation itself begins, it gets up to 7% then stops. It stays there for a while, then quits randomly, and there's no error message. I've tried it a couple times, and have downloaded the app from the website a couple times too. I don't understand why it won't work on my new computer.
I have an OS X 10.8.3
Processor: 2.9 GHz 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel Core i7

1. Security turned on?
    System Preferences > Security
    Select App store & identified developers
2. System Preferences > Flash > Advanced > Delete All
3. Install Adobe Flash Player.

    Quit Safari.
    Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.

Possible scam Flash Player download site.

While using Google search to find the download site for Adobe
Flash Player and entering "Free Flash Player" in the search box, I
was directed to this site >
http://flashplayer.10-downloadcenter.com/index.asp?aff=103&camp=gg_flash_us&se=google
<, where I was asked for my name, e-mail address and then my
credit card information. Since I always understood that Flash
player is free, this site looks like it is a phishing scam to me.
Is Adobe aware of it?

Need alternative Flash Player download site for Opera 12

With Opera 12.17, the Install button disappears within a second, so I can't install Flash Player the normal way (ad blocker or not). And the alternative macromedia site that was available earlier in the year is no longer so. Since I just did a clean install of Win 8.1 (Pro x64), to get FP is there another site - or another way? Thanks,

Internet Explorer:

I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player. It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!

You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
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 first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Why latest flash player 11 version is not available for download?

Flash player about page (http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/) is showing the latest flash player as 11.3.300.255 for windows where as flash player download page is showing 11.2.202.235 fow download.
I have tried the following pages for download but they too have older version 11.2.202.235 for download:

Please help thanks.

Pat and Clinton:
Recognize ... if I go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ the Flash version etc will not display (with 11.3.300.257 plug-in (sub-version) variety only)

As a W2KP dying breed, I am building to the drop-dead (D-D) versions of available software for W2KP. For instance, my D-D version of Firefox is 12.0, my D-D version of Internet Explorer is IE SP1 (6.0.2800.1160CO) etc.
(Note: Drop-dead sofware is software that will not be updated/upgraded ever-again-ever for W2KP)
I do think that this is an install issue and could use your help. Perhaps, a W2KP only and 11.3.300.257 issue?
I will be studying it further with the notion:
The hack referrred to in:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4465086#4465086
maybe? doesn't work for Adobe Flash player 11.3.300.257 Plug-in variey (for FF and other user agents (browsers)?
Again, the ActiveX variety of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.257 INSTALLED fine using the hack and seems to RUN fine with IE SP1 on W2KP. So... it's a bit weird.
Will someone verify that the hack is doable for the plug-in var. If not, the W2KP D-D version of Adobe Flash Plug-in variety software is apparently gonna be Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235.

How to get past the Flash Player Download screen when a newer version is already installed?

Does anyone know how I can get past the Flash Player Download? I already have a newer version then what is trying to load. Therefore, I get a screen telling me the same, but I still can't access the files I need. It is a vicious loop I'm stuck in. Can anyone help me?

Hi..
Are you running Lion v10.7 by chance even though your profile indicates v10.6.8 ??
I ask because you can only reinstall apps using Lion Recovery
Much better to ask for help with Safari here before trying to delete the app and reinstall.
Is the Safari app still in the Trash by chance?

HT5655 After clicking Safari prompt box to "Download Flash..." , I'm linked to the Adobe Flash Player Download page. I click the "Download Now". The page advance to next page in the download process but then immediately goes black and nothing happens.

After clicking Safari prompt box to "Download Flash..." , I'm linked to the Adobe Flash Player Download page. I click the "Download Now". The page advance to next page in the download process but then immediately goes black and nothing happens. System preferences firewall is off and apps are allowed from anywhere and in Safari other plug ins are allowed and cookies are not blocked and pop up windows are not blocked. Why won't Flash Player download?

Don't DL Flash from web sites. If you have Adobe Flash installed it should be in System Preferences and you can find the latest version and download from there.
If you are installing for the first time,this is where to DL it.

I've down loaded adobe flash player but when I try to veiw video on firefox I'm still told that I need adobe flash player. How do I get firefox to see the flash player download?

I was trying to view a video I uploaded to facebook using firefox. The system told me to down load adobe flash player. I did but still get the message that I need to down load flash player. How do I get firefox to see the down loaded adobe flash player?

by installing from within Firefox, Internet Explorer has its own version (Active-X).
Make sure you are starting in the correct place for Flash
* http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
If you want to read PDF files in you browser, you might also want
* http://get.adobe.com/reader/
After the download,
#bring up the download manager ("Ctrl+J") and start your installs. As soon as the install comes up,
#close Firefox with '''File > Exit''' or "Firefox" button > Exit. Give Firefox some time to close.
#If install does not proceed, '''terminate "firefox.exe"''' and '''"plugin-container.exe"''' from the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
#* Windows 7 shortcut to the WTM is "Ctrl+Shift+Esc"
#* or on any Windows system from "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then choose Windows Task Manager.
#*Make sure that "firefox.exe" is no longer running -- if it is still running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu, and do the same for "plugin-container.exe" if it is found there.
#proceed with the install.
'''Warning''': this is the Adobe site and they have chosen to to provide crapware along with their own product. Only install the product you were planning to install. Do not install additional products: including -- "Free! McAfee Security Scan Plus" or "Google Chrome". Installing Google Chrome on your own and installing it because it is offered on the Adobe site are two different things.
Find updates for your installed plugins at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ mozilla.com/plugincheck
-- best to use Adobe's site to really see if their plug-ins are up to date.
Please fix your caps lock or read what you type, do you think anybody could read my answer if I typed in all caps.
If the above fails to correct the problem, I would try uninstalling Adobe Flash from your system entirely first, from the control panel then "Programs and Features".

I can't download/install Adobe Flash Player update version 11.7.700.169.

I have tried several times to download and install Adobe Flash Player update version 11.7.700.169 without success. My OS is Windows XP with SP3 and my web browser is Internet Explorer. My current Adobe Flash Player version is 11.6.602.180. In the Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player IE window I unchecked the checkbox "Yes, install Chrome as my default browser and Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer - optional" and clicked [UpdateNow]. Then I followed the installation instuctions. When I tried to run the installer I got an Internet Explorer Script Error dialog box.
I then clicked yes on the Scrippt Error dialog box and it closed. The new version did not install. I still have the old version.
What am I doing wrong?

Download and run the offline installer(s) from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header (under the heading Progress bar hangs...).

Why isnt my flash player downloading, it get stuck at 33%, in internet explorer on windows 7 laptop

why isnt my flash player downloading, it get stuck at 33%, in internet explorer on windows 7 laptop

Same question, same answer: use the offline installer(s)
Flash Player for Internet Exporer - ActiveX
Flash Player for Firefox - NPAPI

Why is the public Flash Player download version different from the SDLA download site?
