  • General Installation Error - Flash Player 12 on Mac.

    Getting this message on iMac 27" with 10.8.5 during the installation. Al previous version were updated on time and worked perfectly. I followed the steps suggesting to delete files in Library, restart and re-install. No success. Everything ends up with the same message.
    The update file had a bit different graphic on install with the General Error Message at the end.
    The full install just says "Installation Failed."
    Frankly, ran out of ideas what to do...
    Anybody can help? Will really appreciate it!
    Igor

    You came to the right place....
    Your troubles aren't coming from Flash Player.
    You're missing a file that was made visible by the 10.8.5 update (mach_kernel). Hundreds of thousands of Mac users all over the world deleted it, not knowing what it was. It causes this when it's missing.
    Download this file: "Secrets" pereference pane
    It'll allow you to see "hidden files" on your Mac.
    And this one: mach_kernel.zip
    It's the one that was deleted.
    Install Secrets, and open your System Preferences.
    Open the Secrets Preference Pane, and check "Show hidden files"
    You'll need to press the "Quit this" button,
    and restart Finder, by right clicking the Dock icon.
    Then, place the mach_kernel.zip file in the Mac HD directory,
    and unzip it. You should see a "faded" mach_kernel file appear.
    Trash the zip file.
    Reopen your System Preferences and uncheck "Show Hidden files".
    Instead of quitting Finder and relaunching it, reboot your Mac.
    Your Flash Player installer won't quit anymore.

  • Error Flash Player Update service 11.6 r602 ... Bad file

    I'm running on Windows Vista 32 with IE9. (an old Dell). I first noticed this problem when the Latest version of Flash Player was updated. Periodically windows will show an Error Flag saying the Flash Player update Service has stopped working...sometimes this flag has interfered with the smooth functioning of programs that I have running; mostly it is an annoyance.
    I asked about this last week and was told to try a manual uninstall and check for the removal of all the files. Here is where I ran into the problem. But first, the steps. The Uninstaller did most of the work.
    All of the rest of the files were easy to delete; EXCEPT for one. In C:/windows/system32/macromed/Flash is the file 'FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe'  11.6 r602  Version 11.6.602.180  ... It refuses to be deleted !!! I think this is the source of all the problems. I think that it is supposed to function Only with FP Ver. 11.6. and when an updated version is installed, it is left behind AND CAN'T BE deleted.
    I checked the Permissions of this file and the user can only read and execute the file, nothing else. Trying to change the permissions gets you a duplicate file that can be deleted. the original file is untouched.
    I have tried as Admin to delete it, no luck. I tried the "Unlocker" program and it can't find a handle. It offers to delete it on next reboot, but the file is still there.
    I tried to go at it using DOS commands and get an Access Denied. Short of using a .357 Magnum; How do I kill this File????
    By the way, I went ahead and reinstalled the latest FP and it works fine... Just this annoying flag keeps poping up every now and then.
    P.S. I'm thinking about starting the computer in Safemode or do without windows (DOS only) and see if it will let me delete it that way, but I'm not sure I can remember all the old DOS command structure that I need.
    John

    An Update: The DOS attempt did not work. (access denied) Don't Bother trying. program was in use, even though it stopped working. I finally figured out that the program somehow gets started a WIN startup... I used "Glary Utilities" in the Modules section... - System Tools - Process Manager: to Stop the Process.  Then I used in the Privacy & Security tag - File Shredder: to erase the file. ... But It Came back...again.
    So I did Another Clean Uninstall After I first (as Administrator (Right click on Delete)) deleted the file C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash\ FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe  (Version 11.6.602.180)  Be sure that it is the Older file that you delete!
    Refer to  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315  for the procedure.
    I followed the steps carefully and double checked that all and ONLY the files called for were deleted. It surprised me that in step 5. I found still another copy of  the offending file (same date) FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe (I deleted it to (as Admin (right click on delete))). 
    Finally I did a new Install by going to http://get.adobe.com/FlashPlayer and following the process. Note: If you have WeatherBug, shut it down first before going to the installer. (otherwise you will just have to shut it down anyway and the install may not finish (took me 2 tries)) Also, do not close your IE page until the installer tells you to or it may get confused (it did on me the first time).
    I (Hopefully) have this problem corrected now.
    Note: After the New install if you use windows Explorer & go to C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash  and look at the file FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe you will see that it has a Newer version.

  • Error:  Flash Player  "Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem ..."

    I get the following message as soon as I boot up my PC:
    "Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.3 r300 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
    According to Adobe, this is the first time they've heard of this issue.

    Unchecking auto updates does not stop the message for me.
    Sorry to hear that too.  I actually recommended this to a few friends who were having the same issue, and it worked for them.
    But, I'm wondering....  Have you tried disabling the check for updates settings in both the (Window's Control Panel's) Global settings manager and the (online) Global Notifications Settings panel?  (That's the one on this page -- http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager02.htm l )  On that page, click on the "Globe with the Check Mark" tab and make sure that the box is blank.

  • Error flash player 10

    I keep getting flash payer 10 errors when loading flash games from the imtetrnet.

    Can you post the error message

  • Is this a Lion issue?  Flash Player (DashboardClient Internet plug-in) quit unexpectedly.

    When gesturing in/out of Mission Control or the Dashboard, I get this error:
    Flash Player (DashboardClient Internet plug-in) quit unexpectedly.
    Is anyone else having this issue?
    Is this issue specific to 10.7/Lion?
    Is there a fix?

    Hi,
    That could mean a problem with the startup disk.
    Launch Disk Utility /Applications/Utilities
    Select MacintoshHD on the left then select the FirstAid tab. Click: Verify. If Disk Utility reports errors, you will need to boot from your install disc to make repairs.
    Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
    (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your startup disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free space.

  • Problems installing/updating Flash Player

    Hello
    I am currently running Windows 7 64bit
    I noticed that my web browser would hang when playing certain flash based adverts on web pages. I wasn't sure of this was a Firefox 4 problem or a Flash problem so thought to re-install flash player in the first instance and go from there
    In add/remove programs I noticed that the version installed was 10.3.181.22 but in the addons section in Firefox it was showing as 10.3.181.14
    Anyway, using add/remove programs I uninstalled Flash Player and rebooted my PC. I downloaded the 10.3.181.22 installer from the Adobe website but now when I try to run it I keep getting the error message “The installation encountered errors: Flash Player could not be installed because an existing version may still be in use. Please close all applications using Flash Player and try again”
    However when I go into add/remove programs again Flash Player is installed as version 10.3.181.22. Checking the addons in Firefox it is showing as 10.3.181.14. The Adobe website also shows me as having WIN 10,3,181,14
    I have been through the Troubleshoot Flash Player Installation webpage and tried the stuff there in but I am still having the problem. Has anyone seen this before or have any ideas as to what might be causing it?
    Many Thanks

    Hi, it sounds like some application that uses Flash may have not been disabled. Try this: Download and SAVE the Uninstaller to your Desktop:   http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html 
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer (if you want FP Installed in IE)
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
    Close all browser windows, disable any instant messenger services as yahoo, msn, etc from the system tray(area near the clock)
    Disable your realtime Anti-Virus.
    Use the Administrator Account
    Run the Uninstaller and then reboot(restart) your computer.
    Check to make sure your Anti-Virus is still disabled.
    Then Run the Installer for IE(if you want Flash Player Installed), then Run the Installer for FF. When finished, Reboot.
    Turn your Anti-Virus back on along with anything disabled in the system tray.
    Test each browser here, and you should be able to see the Flash Player logo(Red F) animate(spin)
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    You can print these instructions out to make it easier to follow since you will be offline until finished.

  • Errors on my web site started with Flash Player Release a few days ago (Mar 28, 2012)

    Hi,
    I have a Flash based video player on my website.  This was designed and implemented based on an article vy Lisa Larson-Kelley.  It has run flawlessly for several years.  But, when I installed the lastest release of Flash Player a fedw days ago (Mar 28, 2012), I am now getting really annoying issues with the Flash Video Player.
    I expect that I will need to place insturctions for users on how to roll back their version of Flash Player, since this latest version is broken.
    But, many of the people who visit my site are not tech oriented (they are mostly friends and family, so, I don't expect that they will really roll back their version of Flash player.
    I am 100% certain the issue is the latest version of Flash, since these errors never occurred until I installed the latest version. 
    On my work laptop, I have an older version of Flas (10.x.x) and this probelm does not happen.  On my desktop PC at home, I have an older version of Flash 11 installed, and this problem does not happen (in IE9).  The version of Flash PLayer 11 where the issue does *not* occur is 11.1.102.63.
    On that same desktop PC, if I use Chrome, (which automatically defaults to the latest version of Flash which is 11.2.202.228, I get the problems.  So, there is no question that the issue is with the latest version of Flash and not my hardware or drivers.  I get the same problems on three different computers.
    My website has a username and password.  If someone from Adobe wants to replicate the problem send me an e-mail and I will send you the username and password.
    The videoplayer on my website is at this url:  http://www.jjjhi.com/TryMakingFlashVidPlayer/VideoPlaylist.html (but, you will need the username and password).
    The issue is that sometimes (not always) when you select a video to play, inistead of the video loading into the panel as it should (sized as 1025 x 578), instead, all you see is the control skin.  The video begins to play, but all you get is the audio.  It looks like this:
    You can recover from this error by using the skin control to make the image full screen, but, the video looks poor at fulls screen, because it is created at 1024 x 578.  You can then get the correct size by returning from full screen, but, I don't want the pepole who visit my cif\deo playet to have to go all through that.  Especially since most won't even know enough to try making the video full screen.
    This doesn't happen for every video on my web site, but, once it *does* happen once...it will happen for every video selection you make.
    This is unacceptable, and it absolutely a function of Flash version 11.2.202.228.
    Adobe:  Please fix this bug as soon as possible.
    I've implemented an HTML5 based video player and have begun populating it with mp4 versions of my video clips, but, quite honestly, the playback using HTML5 is much worse than with Flash.  I encoded the clips in the HTML5 player with the same Variable Bit Rates as in the F4V clips, and, in the HTML5 player, there are missed frames, and the audio can get out of sync.  So, I *want* to keep using my Flash Based video player, but...if Adobe doesn;t fix this, I will just dial down my VBR till I find one that is slow enough to play in HTML5 and ditch Flash.
    My HTML5 video player is here:
    http://www.jjjhi.com/TryMakingNewVideoPlayer/NewVidPlayer_option1_jth.html
    (again you need the username and password to use it, send me an e-mail and I will give them to you, I just don't want to post them in an open forum).
    Here is a bitmap of the page:  It is quite snazzy looking and is based on an excellent class from Chris Converse at Lynda.com.  But, even though it is 'snazzy looking' the HTML5 player performs poorly on an under-powered machine (like my work laptop).  It uses 100% CPU and misses frames and the audio loses sync.  The same videos encoded with the same VBR for Flash (F4V) play great, *except for the new issue described above!!!!)
    I Adobe can fix this issue with Flash Player 11.2.202.228  ASAP, else, I will  have to 'downgrade' to an HTML5 based video player, that, quite honestly does not perform as well as Flash.
    If you want to reproduce the problem contact me at my e-mail address: [email protected] and I'll send you the username and password.
    You can then prove that the problem does not exist with prior version of Flash player (before 11.2.202.228) but *does* exist with this latest buggy release.
    Thanks,
    John

    Thanks.
    I sent the username and PW to you and Chris.
    Cheers,

  • Has anyone been able to contact Adobe to learn why their Flash Player does not work on Mac OS 10.6.8, no matter how many updates you install?  This seems like a big error by Adobe.

    I have thee Mac computers with Mac OS 10.6.8, one of which is a Mac Pro.  No matter how many updates I install from Adobe, their Flash Player does not work on any of these 3 computers.  I don't know how to contact Adobe Systems about this problem, but I think it is their responsibility to make sure that their so-called "universal" software works proplerly on a relatively recent operating system like OS 10.6.8 that is still in widespread use.  When you install the updates, nothing happens -- not even an error message.  What is the point of a universal player that is not universal?  It works fine on my MacBook Pro with OS 9 Mavericks, but it does not work at all -- indeed, has never worked -- on my 3 Macs with OS 10.6.8.  Has anyone contacted Adobe Systems to find out why the Flash Player does not work with OS 10.6.8 and what they plan to do about it?

    Where are you getting Flash from?
    Get the appropriate dmg installer here and then run it.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
    If it still won't install, do these two things: First uninstall any Flash by going into the second level Hard Drive Library>Internet Plug-ins, and trash the Flash Player.plugin and flashplayer.xpt. Then boot into Safe Boot, Shift at the startup chime (give it much longer than a usual boot) and run the installer while booted in Safe Boot.

  • Unable to load GUI error when trying to download newest flash player

    I had deleted the older flash player , 10.0.42.34 and tried to download 10.0.45.2. Went to the adobe site, clicked the link for "get adobe flash player" from the ADOBE home page .
    Got the "Unable to load GUI" error message, so I just went to the bottom of the download page and installed from this link here
    click here to download  (fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe)
    Is that a legitimate way to download the flash player? I mean it put flash10e.ocx in C:\Windows\System32\macromed\Flash and in the manage add ons and in the add/remove programs version in Vista. Just want to make
    fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe

  • Flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

    flash player has been installed multiple time without errors but bbc news website and even flash player help say it isn't. How do i get out of this loop? - using windows 7 ultimate and latest IE11

    I have had the same problem for WEEKS and I cannot access any sites that use Flash. Flash has been installed on this computer since I bought it in 2012. I have allowed auto updates but for weeks the updates never get past Step 2 - is this because I do NOT want the Google Tool bar? I use NO tool bars as there is only 6 inches of vertical screen space. Is this because I uncheck wanting Chrome as a default browser?  It is already installed, I just don't use it.  I came to this site and ran the check is it installed and the system says it is either not installed or not enabled. Version 14 just downloaded about 30 minutes ago - but did not progress to Step 3 although a pop up screen came up with a finish button, which I clicked. WHAT is the problem and how do I fix it?  If this were just a compatibility bug between IE11 and Adobe they have had plenty of time to fix it.

  • With the latest Firefox, I keep getting error messages on Tumblr, and Flash Player crashes almost every time I watch a video on Tumblr.

    This has been driving me mad for days now. I updated to the latest version of Firefox, but every single time I go to any webpage on Tumblr, (my dashboard, my personal blog, anyone else's blog) I am bombarded by error messages saying "too much recursion." I usually get anywhere from 3 to 5 messages per page. I reverted to Firefox 34 and can now access Tumblr just fine, but then I am faced with a different problem. When watching videos or vines on Tumblr, they can spontaneously lag, jitter, or stop playing. If I try to resume playing them, then they might start playing but all audio will be cut out. This seems to cause some kind of problem with Flash Player, because after it happens on Tumblr, then it will happen on ANY video playing site I visit. If I try to watch a video on Youtube, the video will spasm for a couple seconds and then go to static and say "An error has occurred, please try again later." I've tested it out on other video sites like Blip, and they also cause audio and video bugs. Even if I close Firefox and restart it, the issue will not be solved. The only way I have found to fixing the crashes is to manually reinstall Flash Player (which requires me to reset Firefox anyway). This has been a tremendous annoyance, as I have had to reinstall Flash Player and reset Firefox about five times on any given day for the past week or so. This is driving me to consider dumping Firefox for Chrome, and I don't want to do that.

    Okay, I updated my graphics card drivers just for good measure. I also started Firefox in Safe Mode, and there weren't any bugs. So I isolated the problem by turning on my extensions one by one, and it turns out that something with my XKit extension was the cause. I manually removed XKit and reinstalled it directly from the XKit website. Now everything's working fine again when I use Firefox 35. Thank you!
