Will not load adobe flash, cannot play zynga games on facebook

when asked to download the new version of adobe flash player, the first 2 files work, system says download complete , but do not get the run box or step 4

'''''"...but do not get the run box or step 4""''''': Firefox does not have a "Run" option. What is "step 4"? Where are you getting your instructions? See if the download and install instructions below helps you.
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
*an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only
*a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox
*On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
'''''You do not appear to have the Plugin version for Firefox installed. ''''' If you did, in Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash ''(version)''".
'''Install or update Adobe Flash''' 
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
#Direct link ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''': http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe

TS1702 I purchased black op zombies from the app store and it will not load for me to play the game. How can I get a refund or get the game to load and work?

I purchased black ops zombies and I can not get it to load to play it. How can I get a refund or get to run so that I can play it?

The terms of sale state that: "All Sales are Final. There are no refunds."
However, I've always found iTunes support to be helpful. So, go here, plead your case & hope for the best:

Can not load adobe flash and now none of my video will work. may go back to internet ex.

can not load adobe flash player. tried plug in- and adobe site. nothing works and now I can not view any of my video. OH ye, you are not listed under any of the plug ins. are you windows? Mac? 64? what?

Dan,
The only safe way is to erase the volume and reinstall SL. Then use setup assistant to migrate your data from a Snow Leopard Time machine or clone backup.

Firefox 33.1 does not load Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.223

As far as I can determine, Firefox 33.1 does not load Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.223 (identified on the Plug-ins list as "Shockwave Flash 15.0.0.223") when I access most of the pages on the MSN website. Whether it will display any specific video is unpredictable but it displays about one out of five.
If I place the mouse cursor on the blank black video display area (for which no controls or buttons are displayed), and click the right mouse button, then either (1) the context menu is the same as for clicking the mouse cursor on an empty part of the page, or (2) the context menu is not displayed at all.
Apparently, Firefox has failed to load the plug-in, but does not display any error message. Neither is there any error message displayed by the plug-in.
If you think I am willing to undertake a trial-and-error odyssey through various "do this and see what happens" recommendations in "Knowledge Base" articles and the like, then think again. I don't have the time to make the effort, and I will use Internet Exporer instead. It ought to work with MSN just fine. :-)
Since I did not develop Firefox, this is not my problem to solve. It's your software, not mine, and I didn't make the mistakes, so you fix it.
By the way:
Either Firefox Help does not display the version correctly, or your Troubleshooter doesn't obtain the data correctly. Help says version 33.1 and Troubleshooter says 33.0. YES I KNOW THAT FIREFOX 33.1.1 IS AVAILABLE. SO WHAT?
Troubleshooter also identifies the Shockwave Flash plug-in as "15.0 r0" but the native Add-ons feature identifies it as 15.0.0.223 -- which is the version that Adobe uses.
The last line of the Troubleshooter's "educated guesses" just has "* 5.1.30514.0". I have no idea as to what that refers to and I doubt that anyone else would have one either.
Well, maybe those numbers are good enough for "educated guessers" but in my experience computers do not make "educated guesses" even if software developers do.
Enjoy!

Please refrain from posting scattergun boilerplate suggestions.
Please post specific instructions that will resolve the problem. If you don't know why the problem occurs and how to remedy the problem, then don't bother.
Realize that the problem did not occur with the previous version of Adobe Flash Player, but began after it was updated to 15.0.0.223. So it is is apparently specific to that version, and it may reflect a flaw in Adobe Flash Player. There's no way to actually report it to Adobe. Posting a report in their "user forum" just produces replies like the one that you have posted in reply to my OP, so what is the use?
Evidently you presume that Firefox does not have a bug, that something else doesn't work and you may be right. However, if Firefox does have a bug, then nothing that you have posted will correct it, and experimenting according to your boilerplate will be nothing but a waste of time and effort.
Again, the problem is not that Adobe Flash Player 15.0.0.223 does not run, but that it does not run when I attempt to view most of the videos on MSN. It does display videos from YouTube and other websites with an occasional specific exception. If the failure occured on more websites, and with all MSN videos, then maybe your suggestions for investigating it would have more merit.
For what it is worth: the problem occurs in Firefox Safe Mode and without Firefox Safe Mode. Disabling or enabling any extensions or other plug-ins has no effect.
I established that while investigating why Firefox 33.1 started producing crash reports every time that it initially displayed the New Tab page when I visited MSN (Firefox 32 did not do that). I also checked whether the actions that I took to troubleshoot that behavior affected Adobe Flash Player on MSN. They didn't.
Apparently the crash reports occured because Firefox could not find or could not load the "thumbnail" images for website pages that I had previously seen (they are often deleted by ''CCleaner''). The crash reports stopped after I made a couple of changes to the configuration for the ''SandboxIE'' sandbox in which I run Firefox.
Frankly, Firefox "Safe Mode" is something I don't need, because I run Firefox in a ''SandboxIE'' sandbox, which is a much more comprehensive security measure than anything implemented by any specific application. At the moment I don't recall whether Firefox Safe Mode is enabled, although I probaby re-enabled it after disabling it during the crash-report investigation. But it didn't make any difference with regard to Adobe Flash Player in that context, so there's no reason to repeat it.

Apple home start page will not start and games will not load with flash.

Never mind...I just figured it out. Restore windows when quitting box in Gen Prefs must be unchecked. To many new little things.

Since uploading to 6.0 I cannot play any games on Facebook as it does not allow me to post to wall, send requests or even open half the games yet IE will work still, why is this happening?

We installed Firefox 6.0 yesterday [Aug 17th] on our computer. Since that time I have had serious issues with trying to play the games on FACEBOOK. The system will not allow me to send out friend requests, post to the wall and for the flash type games those won't even load at all.

Oh no... NOT THE 99-PAGER!!! Anything but THAT!!!

Just purchased CS4 but disk will not load at all, cannot install

I have been looking around on the forums for a day or so but have not seen anyone else that has this problem. I insert the CS4 disk into my DVD rom and it is not doing anything at all. It wil not load, if I go to My Computer and click DVD rom it causes my comp to freeze.
Notmally I would assume this is a problem with my disk drive but when I put any other disk in there it works fine. Now experimenting I tried placing my frien'd photoshop elements disk in and it does the exact same thing.
I have tried all the other tricks like turning off the firewall, virus software, removed Adobe reader and Flash. But nothing has changed. What else should I try?

The first thing to do is to check if the Photoshop disk is in fact ok or not. Are you able to read the Photoshop disk on another computer?
If the disk is ok, there is something specific to your drive/system which is causing the problem.
You can find loads of discussions about DVD drives freezing the system in various forums. Some general troubleshooting steps: http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/53821.aspx

Fonts will not automatically enable in Font Book, fonts also will not load Adobe CS5 Indesign or Illustrator.

Hello,
My fonts stopped enabling automatically in font book, and do not load in Adobe Indesign CS5 or Illustrator CS5 when I use these programs.
The font names are usually displayed in brackets such as [Times New Roman] in the drop down menu for fonts.
So far I've found two different libraries for font, but I'm not sure about deleting them for fear of losing my fonts.
Also where do I find the font cache? If I clear it, can I possibly get the fonts to enable themselves again.
I'm using a 2006 Macbook Pro, and running Snow Leopard (Mac OSX 10.6.8).
Thank you in advance for any help.

Thank you for your reply. I have a few comments of my own.
(1) You, ~Bee, accused me of using "another person's wisdom here". In some quarters, this would be called plagiarism.
If I were Oscar Wilde, I'd say that bad manners were a far more grievous sin than plagiarism. But I'm not. Good manners is one thing, and I'll be the first to admit that my manners can stand a considerable degree of improvement. Plagiarism is something quite different, and I deeply resent being accused of such an action.
(2) In this recent thread
<https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3648940?tstart=30>
I see a Level 5 contributor doing precisely what I did. Yet, curiously enough, I see no guardian of good manners jumping up to chastise him for it. Am I to understand that this is a case of quod licet Jovi, non licet bovi? We're supposed to do what our betters say, not what our betters do? (Of course, I'm absolutely, positively sure that you, ~Bee, have never, ever, replied to a post simply with a link.)
(3) In two recent threads, I've had occasion to direct OPs to the same web page
<https://discussions.apple.com/message/17201779#17201779>
<https://discussions.apple.com/message/17245704#17245704>
In the former thread I wrote,
You need to read Kurt Lang's paper on font management
In the latter thread I wrote,
Read Font Management in OS X, by Kurt Lang. The author is a frequent contributor to this forum.
And you must be very well aware of this, because you posted yourself in the latter thread, not once, but thrice.
Knowing this, I don't see how you could have had any reason to accuse me of "going to use another person's wisdom here".
Knowing this, you could have made the charitable assumption that I was, possibly, in a bit of a hurry when I replied with nothing but a link, and act accordingly. (That, incidentally, would have been considered good manners in my part of the world.)
Does that seem like too much trouble, ~Bee?

Google chrome will not run Adobe flash in windows 8 mode now, why?

My windows 8 dell laptop can use Google Chrome in desktop mode and windows 8 app mode, Google Chrome Version 29.0.1547.66 m. I was using adobe flash in windows 8 mode when al of the sudden it told me that flash could only be used in desktop mode and kicked me into desktoop mode. I have adobe flash version11,8,800,97 installed. please help I would really like to know if there is something wrong.

I have the same problem. I was using Google Chrome without any problems until two days ago, when suddenly a bar started popping up accross the top of the page saying "Adobe Flash Player only works on the desktop" and give me the options "Relaunch Chrome" or "Don't ask again." It can be very frustrating to have to relaunch chrome, especially if you're in the middle of streaming, or downloading, or halfway through something extremely long (and usually boring in my line of work) and it starts you back at the beginning because you have to relaunch. Is there anyway to make Adobe work in the Windows 8 mode again and not just on the desktop? I have Adobe Flash Player version 11,8,800,97 and Google Chrome version 29.0.1547.66 m. Thanks.

Namoroka will not recognise Adobe Flash Plug In. Keeps saying a plug in is missing.

I just installed Firefox 64 bit that is called Namoroka. A couple of sites say "Additional plug ins are required to display all of the media on this page"; Clicking "Install missing plugin" takes me to Download Adobe Flash Player. I install it and reboot. Restarting Firefox gives me same problem asking for Adobe Flash Plyer to be installed. I check installed programs and find that Adobe Flash player is installed. I try all manner of tricks but Firefox Namoroka still doesn't recognise that Adobe Flash Player is installed.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Flash was required ==
== User Agent ==

There is an 'experimental' beta 64bit version of flash (for Windows) which works fine for me:

Firefox will not load any flash video, on any website.

Hello, just recently firefox decided to stop loading flash video.
Eg. Youtube, metacafe, etc.
I tired uninstalling flash and reinstalling it, uninstalling firefox and reinstalling it, ive also tried scanning for viruses, and nothing has worked. Sometimes it will load the advertisement for youtube videos but thats it, after that it just stays black and the controls for the player still work as normal, but there is no video or audio.
I've tried to install a different browser to see if that would make a difference and it did, i can view flash videos on chrome but the moment i go back to firefox, videos dont work anymore.

Windows 8 will not load Adobe Acrobat X Pro

I changed computers and it has windows 8 on it. The above referenced app cannot load. How can I fix this.

I believe I may be having the same issue. I click on the application from the start menu to open it and nothing happens. When I click on the icon, the start screen closes and I am back on my browser screen. I have also tried to right-click a PDF file and select open with Adobe Acrobat and nothing happens.
My other Adobe CS6 products (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, etc) are working fine.

Firefox has been hanging on nearly every web page I go to, also it will not load any flash video, I have tried reinstalling plugins but this has not helped .

I have tried reinstalling plug ins, it would seem all of them are up to date, fire fox also hangs when I view pictures on facebook while still becoming unresponsive when opening almost any new page.
