• Cannot install the update for Adobe Flash

  I know now that I need to install the 11.3.300.262 version of Adobe Flash, but no matter what I do, it seems to install the 11.3.300.257 update... even when he says that it is the only former.

  Should I try uninstalling Flash player, then put it back?

  Thank you.

  Yes, uninstall your current Flash Plugin installation before trying to install the latest version.

• Cannot install the update of Adobe Flash and am beyond frustrated.

  For several weeks/months, I had a problem, install the latest version of Adobe Flash. My system specs are as follows:

  AMD 64 Dual - Core Processor 6000 + 3.0 GHz processor

  4.0 GB RAM

  Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit)

  Internet Explore 11

  My problem started when they were updated to the new version of the program. He told me that I needed to install the update and so I went to the site and began the process of download, as I have done 1000 times before. Only this time, after I ran the program that I started having what I have my frustration has nicknamed "the gray area of death." when it comes to the part where the installation is supposed to to start you are supposed to to see the progress of the installation bar all I get is a solid shaded area with no bar in the middle. This has happened several times and I don't know what in the world to do about this. I went online and I tried to follow the many guides all with the same result.

  Today, I went through my computer and close my firewall/antivirus protection/malware (even to the point of completely uninstall some programs) without success. I tried to update existing software. I tried to uninstall and install a new 100%. All the these have the same result. I know that is not the fact that I have a 64 bit OS because your site identifies it as a 64-bit system, so I should get the good update. I've tried everything I can think of (apart from wiping my entire disk which I won't do) and I'm at the end of my rope. Please help me solve this problem.

  Frustrated

  Hi lord_knikon,

  I understand your frustration.  We have had several users report, however, we have not been able to reproduce.  This happens with online Installer downloaded from get.adobe.com/flashplayer.  We have not seen this with offline installation programs, posted at the bottom of this help page, http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html.  Please try to use the Offline Installer and you should be able to get Flash Player installed on your system.

• How can I remove application Mega backup that I installed when I thought I was the update for adobe flash download. I've got El Capitan.

  How can I remove app Mega backup of my desktop computer. He got installed when I thought I was downloading an update for adobe flash.  I closed the application them tp mpved ot trash, but he would not accept it stating still open app.

  "MegaBackup" is an application of unworthy of trust-storage cloud or perhaps real malware. I have not tried to make this distinction. To remove it, please start back up all the data (not with the MegaBackup himself, of course). Then take the steps below.

  1 Select the elements of the connection tab in the users pane and groups of system preferences. Remove all elements with a name starting in 'MegaBackup '.

  2 log off or restart the computer.

  3. slide the MegaBackup application in the Applications to the trash and empty folder.

  Note that you cannot delete any application trying to drag its icon from the LaunchPad or the Dock. You must open the Applications folder in the Finder.

  You may have installed ad-injection with MegaBackup malware. If you don't see unaccustomed pop-up in a web browser, ask for additional instructions.

• Pop-up ads continue despite all the information here regarding remove them.  I think they were watching when I downloaded an update for Adobe Flash Player.  All of the suggestions!

  I use OS x El Capitan 10.11.2 on my 3.2 GHz, 8 GB Mac.  I keep getting the pop - ads that those scam ads reply and get their malicious software solution.  I also get the help line 'Apple' where someone's endearing supposedly walk me if they can help.  I tried all of the solutions in the Apple support groups, but nothing has worked... remove extensions (don't have), in order to put the files listed in 'Go to Folder' (none came, so I couldn't remove them).  Any ideas?  It seems that it got worse after I received a notice to update my Adobe Flash Player... maybe a false update.

  1. the present proceedings is a diagnostic test. It doesn't change anything for the better or worse and therefore, by itself, will not solve the problem. But with the help of the results of the tests, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.

  The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later versions. I do not recommend running it on older versions of Mac OS X. It will do no harm, but it will not do not much good.

  Do not be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You make the tasks more complicated with the computer all the time.

  2. If you do not already have a current backup, please back up all the data before doing anything else. The backup is needed on the general principle, not because of what anyone in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you encounter any kind of problems with the computer, you can be more than the usual loss of data, if you follow these instructions or risk not.

  There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  3 here is instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it doesn't change anything. It does not send or receive data over the network. There is no to generate a report on the State of the computer human readable. This report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents for me or someone else.

  You should ask yourself if you can believe me, and if it is safe to run a program at the request of a foreign national. In general, no, he's not sure, and I encourage it.

  In this case, however, there are ways for you to decide if the program is safe without having to trust me. First of all, you can read it. Unlike an application that download you and click to start, it is transparent, so any person with the required competence can check what it does.

  You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this site of thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. One of the million registered users to have read the script and set off the alarm if it was dangerous. Then I wouldn't be here now, and you would not be reading this message. See, e.g., this discussion.

  Another indication that the test is safe in this threadand this onecan be found, for example, where the comment in which I suggested it was recommended by one of the specialists of the communityApple, as explained here.

  However, if you cannot satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, do not follow them. Ask other solutions.

  4. here is a general summary of what you need to do, if you decide to go forward:

  ☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.

  ☞ Paste into the window to another application.

  ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.

  ☞ Stick the results, which will be copied automatically, in a response on this page.

  These are not specific instructions; just a glimpse. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait and paste it again. You don't need to copy a second time.

  5. try to test in conditions that replicate the problem, to the extent possible. For example, if the computer is slow intermittently, run the test during a downturn.

  You may have started up in safe mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works pretty well in normal mode to test run, restart as usual before running it. If you can test only in safe mode, this.

  6. If you have more than one user and a user is affected by the problem, and the user is not an administrator, and then run the test twice: once under the affected user and one administrator. The results can be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer, when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you are unable to log in as an administrator, verify that the user concerned. More personal Mac have only one user, and in this case this section does not apply. Don't log in as root.

  7 load the linked web page (the site "Pastebin.") The title of the page is 'Diagnostic Test'. Under the title is a text box, headed by three small icons. The right one represents a Clipboard. Click on this icon to select the text, then copy to the Clipboard of your computer by pressing Control-C key combination.

  If the text is not highlighted when you click the icon, select it in triple - click anywhere inside the box. Do not select the whole page, just the text in the box.

  8. start the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing Command + V, then press return. The text that you pasted should disappear immediately.

  9. If you see an error message in the Terminal as "Syntax error" or "Event not found", enter

  exec bash

  and press return. Then paste the script again.

  10. If you logged in as an administrator, you will be prompted for your login password. Nothing displayed when you type. You won't see the usual points instead of the characters typed. Make sure that caps lock is turned off. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you make three unsuccessful attempts to enter the password, the test is still running, but it will produce less information. If you do not know the password, or if you prefer not to enter, just press back three times at the password prompt. Yet once again, the script will run.

  If the test takes much longer that usual to run because the computer is very slow, you can be prompted for your password a second time. The permission you grant by entering it will expire automatically after five minutes.

  If you are not logged as an administrator, you will be prompted for a password. The test will run. It just will not do anything that requires administrator privileges.

  11. the test may take a few minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that is abnormally slow may take more time to run the test. During execution, a series of lines is displayed in the Terminal window like this:

      Test started

          Part 1 of 4 done at: … sec        …        Part 4 of 4 done at: … sec

      The test results are on the Clipboard.

      Please close this window.

  The intervals between the parties will not be exactly the same, but they give an approximate indication of progress.

  Wait for the final message "Please close this window" appears. If you don't see it in about 15 minutes, the test probably won't be all within a reasonable time. In this case, press the Ctrl + C key combination or the point command to stop it. Then go to the next step. You will have incomplete results, but still something. If you close the window of the Terminal, while the test is still running, the partial results will not be saved and you have to start over.

  12. when the test is finished, or if you have stopped it because it was taking too long, leaving the Terminal. The results have been saved to the Clipboard automatically. They do not appear in the Terminal window. Please do not copy from there. All you have to do is start a response to this comment and then paste it again by pressing Command-V.

  At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words «Start time.» If you do not see that, but rather to see a mass of gibberish, you wait for the message "close this window". Please wait and try again.

  If personal information, such as your name or e-mail address, appear in the results, make anonymous before posting. Usually it will be not necessary.

  13. in the validation of the results, you see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the software which manages this website. Thanks for posting the results of the tests on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

  If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

  14. This is a public forum and others can give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but what're told you to do maybe not. For others who choose to run it, I do not recommend that you view the results of test on this Web site unless I ask.

• Problem: Cannot install the latest version of Flash Player.

  Impossible to download and install the latest version of Flash Player.  The installation program downloads very well but the installer will not download the Flash Player. I keep getting a message "connection error" the installer.  I checked my DSL connection and it works properly. I use Windows XP (32-bit) with FireFox 38.0.1 and Flash Player 17.0.0.169.  I had similar problems during the installation of the 17.0.0.169 version but after 3 or 4 attempts it finally downloaded and installed successfully. My Flash Player configuration is set to 'Allow Adobe Flash Player install'.  I tried to close FireFox and my Norton software on the security line during installation, but I still get the same error message. Is the latest version of Flash Player that is compatible with Windows XP?  Is there a problem with the Adobe servers are down? Thanks in advance for your suggestions on this problem!

• Cannot install the update for Windows vista (KB2718704) a safe mode or after clean window reboot

  I can't install the update for Windows vista (KB2718704), a mode without failure or after clean window reboot.

  What should I do?

  Hello

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  ·         You get the error message?

  ·         You are able to install other updates successfully?

  Follow these methods.

  Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow step 7 the link to start the computer to a Normal startupmode.

  Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

• Strange icon that will not allow the update to Adobe Flash Player 17 for mac

  When I download the most recent Adobe Flash update for mac I have a strange icon.

  

  When I double click to launch the update file, I get an even weirder window full of gibberish.

  If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I'm open. I went through each help file I can find for Adobe and nothing has helped so far.

  Hi Threigia,

  Remove the .mdlp of file name, so that it ends just .dmg.

  We are seeing this behavior with users who have installed of MathLab and we look at why this is happening.  FWIW, this happens to other software THAT DMG files as well, not only the installer of Flash Player.  For some reason when users have installed, MathLab when the DMG file is downloaded, it adds the extension .mdlp for her.  When users try to run it, rather than open with DiskImageMounter, which is what OS X uses to open DMG files, it opens using MATLAB and the result is what you posted.  In this case in the future, simply remove ".mdlp" from the file name and DiskImageMounter will open the DMG, instead of Matlab.
