• How can I find the version of Adobe Flash Player installed on my Mac

  1. How can I find the version of Adobe Flash Player installed on my Mac?  I'm on OS 10.11.5 and Safari 9.1.1.
  2. How can I determine if I need to update Adobe Flash Player

  There are several different methods to check which version is installed, two of them are:

  Option 1:

  • Go to System Preferences > Flash Player > Updates tab.  There are 2 variants of Flash Player on Mac, NPAPI for Safari and Firefox and PPAPI for opera and Chrome browsers, and both appear in the tab "Updates".
  • If Flash Player is installed the version installed is listed here.  If there is a version that is listed, click the check now button and Flash Player will check for an update.  If an update is available, a notification dialog box appears.
  • If there is not a version listed, Flash Player is not installed.  Click Install now to start the browser to the download page.  Download and install Flash Player.

  Option 2:

  • Launch the browser and go to https://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about.
    • If Flash Player is not installed, a "plugin missing" message appears when the Flash content should display.
      • Click on the "plugin missing" text and a window placard showing Flash Player is required poster.
      • Click more info to be directly to the download page to download and install Flash Player
    • If a previous version of Flash Player is detected and blocked by Safari, click on the "Outdated Flash" text and displays a windows Flash is obsolete screens.  Click on download Flash... button to be redirected to the download page to download and install the latest version.

• Adobe Flash Player installed.  Does not seem to be recognized by IE9.  Incorrect display of browser?

  Good evening everyone,

  This Flash issue drive gives me fits, so I hope that one of you may have experienced this before. Websites visited on this Tablet does not recognize Adobe Flash Player. I have installed Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.135 for Internet Explorer. When I go to the following link, http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html , I get the following information:

  "Flash player is running on your system." The lil' ball rotates backwards.

  Version of flash player: 11.5.502.135

  OS: Windows 7 (32-bit)

  Browser: Opera

  Well, I use Internet Explorer 9. What gives? I tried to uninstall and reinstall Flash player. No luck. ActiveX filtering is disabled. The Shockwave Flash Object add-on is activated. I ran a few antivirus updates and find a bunch of signatures, but I removed immediately. (Malwarebytes, Spybot S & D)

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I'm about to nuke the hard drive and start over.

  Thank you in advance.

  Good afternoon Sunil.

  Thanks for the reply.  Sorry if I wasn't clear on my previous post.  That's right, that the page incorrectly detect the browser like Opera. I was with IE9.  It was very strange.

  I corrected it performed a Windows system restore from the previous month.

  Take care.

• Possible malware on Mac - is Adobe Flash Player install Manager application legitimate?

  I have a macbook pro and I am running 10.10 OS. My browser is Safari 9.1.

  Flash player NPAPI plugin version 21.0.0.242 is installed.

  Flash PPAPI plugin player - is not installed.

  Protection service 5/7/16-a identity to which I am subscribed sent a message saying that my Adobe password has been hacked. I changed the password.

  05/15/16, 1 AM-while you browse using Safari a popup appears saying that it needed to update my flash player. (Stupidly), I clicked on "OK".  The window asked if I wanted to install the MacGuard, MacSecurity and another application. I clicked on 'no' to each, then "continue." He then asked my administrator password to install Flash Player. Well I type the password, and I closed the window we'd send her to install some files which warned me that something was wrong. At the end of the installation has changed my Yahoo homepage. I ran Malwarebytes. Malewarebytes identified some suspicious files which I deleted. Then I restarted my computer. 

  I just noticed a file in my Utilities folder called Adobe Flash Player install Manager. It was created on 09/05/2016 and changed 12/05/2016. I don't remember installing this application. Also, I have "notify me to install updates" and I don't remember notification.  Is Adobe Flash Player install handle (located in the folder Utilities-see below) an application legitimate or should I delete it? When I impulsively tried to remove a few minutes ago, asked me my admin password. Before we continue I hope get some forum members advice. It belongs in the utility folder or do I have to remove it using my Admin password?

  

  Thanks a lot for any assistance.

  Hello

  Unfortunately, it does not appear you have received a notification of update of Flash Player false as MacGuard MacSecurity not the third-party products available for installation of Flash Player and the official Flash Player installer modifies not the browser's default homepage or the favorite search engine.

  The official Flash Player installer has an application called Adobe Flash Player install by in the utilities directory, however, at this stage, it is difficult, at best, to know if this file was created with the Flash Player installer legitimate or not.

  I have recommended to perform a clean uninstall.  See the FAQ How to perform a "clean installation" of Flash Player in Mac OS X for orientation.

• Flash player installed, active and still not found?

  Hello

  I have the latest version of flash player installed succsessfully. Tests on the support sites also say: it is installed.

  The samsung monitor software CD I want to install tells me later, adobe flash player is not installed.

  Indeed, I can not find anywhere, under programs or under the x 86 programs.

  And again: display all programs under the control of system to uninstall it: here, there, but I can't without uninstalling.

  Thanks to clear this mystery.

  Hello

  Flash Player is stored in the following location:

  • 32-bit: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
  • 64-bit: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash AND C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash

  For Windows, there are 3 types of different players: control ActiveX for IE, NPAPI to firefox and other NPAPI and PPAPI for the browsers Chrome and Chrome browsers.  I'm not familiar with the software you're trying to install, however, most applications use the ActiveX control.  Note that if your operating system Windows 8 and especially Microsoft integrates Flash Player ActiveX Control in the browser and on the other there to install the Flash Player ActiveX Control on these operating systems.

• Flash Player install freezes @ 99% repeated - 17002 17173. com MB. Solution?

  Flash Player install freezes @ 99% repeated - 17002 17173. com MB. Solution?

  Yes, Ive tried to download directly from the link to the Adobe Site for the Flash Player.

  Still does not completely settle. Very frustrating.

  I also tried to uninstall, reboot and do a fresh install. No progress.

  OpSYs: Windows 7 - latest version updated automatically.

  I think that it's been resolved. For some reason, the merger demanded that Internet Explorer be recognized as the default browser. Once this is done, Flash has finally complete its installation.  Thank you to be ready to help... sometimes we just get lucky.

• On opening gogle I get the message: "ATTENTION!" Your Flash Player can be updated. Please update to continue"- by clicking on ok I am confused to download Flash Player Pro site? What is an Adobe product? And why, even if I have the most recent flash playe

  On the opening of google, I get the message: "ATTENTION!" Your Flash Player can be updated. Please update to continue"- by clicking on ok I am confused to download Flash Player Pro site? What is an Adobe product? And why, even if I have the latest version of flash player I received several times the message?

  This isn't a message that provides Adobe, and I recommend that you do not click the link. It seems you may have malware on your computer.

  For more information, see: http://malwaretips.com/blogs/warning-your-flash-player-may-be-out-of-date-virus/ or http://wasconet.com/how-to-remove-warning-your-flash-player-may-be-out-of-date/

• How to Flash manually to some Adobe Flash Player install manager wants to do?

  I get periodic signs of "Adobe Flash Player install Manager" telling me that there is a Flash update, but until now I could not decipher if it is

  (a) a real upgrade of adobe rather than a horse of Troy of God-only-knows-who.

  (b) if it is a real upgrade, what will be the version after installation, so that I can decide if I want to install it or not;

  (c) if I don't want to install it, how to get this version and install it manually

  This is what looks like the Panel:

  

  By pushing the «See details...» "link takes me to the page basically useless http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/releasenotes .html #p10 which anyone can write a link to and no indication of what might actually be downloaded and installed and where it would come from.

  If I have a url which is on adobe.com and has a file that I can download and install - and I can see for myself that it'S from the adobe.com site - then I will download and install it.  But I sure as hell won't push the button 'INSTALL' and put in a name of user and password administrator on some random Panel of unknown origin that appears on my computer!

• Flash Player install hangs at 95%, 10.9 MacOSX (Mavericks)

  I followed all the instructions for her completely uninstall Flash Player. I followed instructions on a 'Clean' reinstall FP. I tried to install 10 FP for Mac instead of PS 11. I created a new user account and tried installing FP. all attempts to have the same result - Flash Player reaches 95% and crashes then just forever.

  I should mention that this issue arose after a clean installed 10.9 MacOS on a new hard drive with the old data user migrated to old hard drive according to best practices, etc. Is there a Setup log that I can send to any clues as to what is causing failure to install?

  I redid all the uninstall/clean reinstall procedure, including spotlight search for almost any file including 'flash' 'player' in the title, deleted everything, rebooted, checked again that all caches, plugins, managers, etc., which had nothing to do with Flash Player have been deleted... once again mounted the following file:

  install_flash_player_11_osx.dmg

  who came from:

  http://fpdownload.Macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/licensing/Mac install_flash_player_11_osx.dmg

  and I tried the new installation - same result - crashes at 95%.  I was about to 'hang up' myself, I remembered that some people had had the chance check out the file "Adobe Flash Player.pkg" Installer and just this program installation. I realized that I had tried this before with the Flash Player install downloaded by going to adobe.com-->--> Flash Player downloads, etc., but never found this .pkg file downloaded and mounted .dmg. However, it occurred to me that I had not watched the file in the stand-alone installation program mentioned above. Of course, it's there, I ran - Flash Player installed in a blink of eye, and probably at least 5-6 hours to tackle this problem, I have had success.

  Here's what I did:

  1 launched the referenced above and downloaded .dmg file

  2. the mounted volume contains the folder 'Install Adobe Flash Player.app'. I did click right on the application and choose "Show Package content"

  3. I went to: contents-> resources and found the file "Adobe Flash Player.pkg.

  4. I hold the option key pressed and drag to create a copy on my desk.

  5. I double-clicked on the file above on my desk and then just follow the guests to install Flash Player.

  It seems to me that it is an Adobe problem they need to fix.

• Adobe Flash Player install/Uninstaller 11.2.r202 has encountered a problem and needs to close

  Seems that the 3 or 4 recent Flash Player updates, once the update is complete, but before the installer stops actually, I get a box of error message telling me that "Adobe Flash Player install/Uninstaller 11.2.r202 has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience. ', etc, etc, etc.  I received this error several times as most of the computers I work on Windows XP SP3 (all updates) with Internet Explorer 8 browser, including my own computer and my wife.  If I could copy/paste the details, I'd do it.  But is not the temporary file which is supposed to be created for purposes, error reporting, and I'm not going to spend the next half hour to transcribe all the technical details.  I just want you to know, that there is a problem with your Installer.       -kd5150-

  Today we released Flash Player 11.3.300.270 to answer specifically the collapse of the FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe.  See the announcement post for more details and links to installers:

• Cannot get Flash Player installed 10.2.153

  Windows XP SP 3 32 bit I have read several different threads and have very similar problems getting Flash Player installed. I tried the two removal of the program to add / remove programs and uninstall program Adobe. I rebooted between uninstalls and installs and install again after. I tried to install IE 8 and FireFox doesn't seem to work. I run the Flash/subject and he did not recognize that Flash Player is installed. I checked the "Kill-bit" and it is not set. I've updated the registry, remove entries of Flash Player in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macormedia\FlashPlayer - FlashPlayerActiveX and FlashPlayerPlugin after uninstalling Flash Player and also remove the Flash folder in C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed and then reboot and retry the installation of Flash Player, nothing helps. It's very frustrating, especially when this user really needs to use Flash Player as part of his work. Please help.

  Thanks again. The Shockwave Flash Object is not installed and it seems that it is acknowledged that exact key, then the Kill-bit is set.

  The plugin for FF is correct.

  Go back to the thread of Kill bits and look in the Post #4. Below are the directions. The file you want to extract this zip file is the one you want to SAVE on your desktop. Then close all the browser windows, disable all antivirus and run this file.

  When that finished, Reboot (restart) your computer and re - activate your AV.

  Who should take care of it. Then, go to the website of test with IE and see if you can see the animation of the Flash Player logo.

  Thank you
