How the updated Flash Player for Firefox without launching Firefox?

I had a problem with Firefox freeze when I try to do anything other than simple navigation for at least two years. Updates help or disable all add-ons, or relocation, etc. Nobody can figure out how to solve this problem, so I use it as-is. I want to update the Adobe Flash Player plug-in but Firefox crashes whenever I try. Is it possible to update the Flash Player in Firefox with Firefox actually running?

Thank you

XP SP3 and latest Firefox running.
IE8 also running using the latest version of Flash Player.

32-bit, you're not screwed

  • How to update flash player for several browsers under Mac

    Hello

    First of all, I have installed Flash Player on my mac and he used with Safari. Now, recently I started using Opera, and when I tried to view flash content it told me that was not installed Flash. I thought flash installed the browser in the world for all to use, but I guess I was wrong. Now Flash on Safari tells me is outdated, while Opera is not since I installed it later. Is there a way to keep Flash updated without having to be updated individually in every browser I use?  I do not in fact automatic update. Just a personal preference because I still do not have a fast internet connection.  I use Mac OS 10.11.5 is said by the way.

    Hello

    Safari and Opera uses 2 different types of plugin.  Safari (and Firefox) use the NPAPI and Opera plugin (and other browsers based on chrome) PPAPI plugin.  The best way to keep the two types of Player update is opt in the background updates.  Verification of updates for a updated once per day of history.  If an update is it downloads and installs it.  All versions of the drive on a system are usually updated within 24 hours of a new version being released.  Updates to opt in the background follow these steps:

    Launch System Preferences > Flash Player > updates tab > select Adobe allow to install updates (recommended)

  • Flash Player for Firefox on Win 8 / 64-bit

    I'm trying to install Flash Player for Firefox on Windows 8, 64-bit system, but have no end of grief.

    I finally get the problem initially, and it happens because when I enter the info on the download page, it instead serves the Setup program for the 32-bit version.

    In fact, it checks on the page that I request and download the 64-bit version, but what I get and then install is 32-bit.  And, therefore, I can't get Flash Player to work in Firefox.

    Is there any way at all I can access the true 64-bit Flash Player for Firefox / Windows 8?

    There is no installation of 32-bit and 64-bit; on a 64-bit system, the Setup program will automatically install 32-bit and 64-bit players.

    Download the installer from http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe

  • I need Flash Player for Firefox, but it won't let me.

    I need Flash Player for Firefox, but I already downloaded it before so it gives me the message "more than one instance" if I try to download it. It does not appear in my modules and I tried Shockwave, but when I hit the download button it tells me I need a new version and redirects me to the page that I'm already on (download page). I don't really know what to do at this point.

  • Cannot install Flash Player for Firefox

    I am running Windows XP it with SP4.  IE and the latest version of Firefox are installed.

    In IE and Firefox, trying to install Flash Player with the standard binding, I get an error message in a small window opens, the title "getPlus + (R): error," text 'Cannot load a GUI,' box 'OK '.  I got this by locating a stand-alone installation for IE, who uploaded a file to install it on my computer.  However, this does not work in Firefox, even when access to this link from Firefox.  The file runs, but Flash Player still shows as not installed in Firefox.

    I can't find any program separate stand-alone installers for Flash Player for Firefox.

    This error seems to be generated by the Adobe getPlus product installer.  My thought was to uninstall the Adobe installer and try again.  However, the Adobe installer appears in the list of installed programs, accessible via the Control Panel, BUT by clicking on the button to uninstall the program does nothing.  The program is still present.  I can't find a location for the installer from Adobe on my hard drive.

    Hi Chris, I'm very well know the DLM/getPlus/getPlusPlus/NOS. :-) I see that you are too much now :-) Most users have no problem removing DLM to Add/Remove/programs and features through Control Panel.

    There are a number of things to check. Using IE, go to tools > Internet Options. Click settings, and then view the objects. There that anything appearing on the above?

    When you tried to delete the DLM, were using the administrator account?

    Now, using the start SEARCH, enter in the "part of the name of" gp.ocx and note where it is and right click and delete it. Then, run a SEARCH on gp.inf and do the same thing.

    Did you uninstall Flash Player using the Adobe uninstaller program then try again to install FP in FF?

    I have some info Add ' l on the DLM, etc and will try to get it.

    Thank you

  • Updates Flash Player for PS3

    Hello everyone.

    I am writing this post because it seems there is a lack of support and updates of Adobe Flash player for the Sony PS3 and also to show that there is a demand for an update to do.

    It seems that the BBC made an effort, even if PS3 users do not have the latest version of Flash Player, you can still catch up on all the shows of BBC missed on the new official support from BBC iPlayer for the PS3. See the link below.

    http://www.ixalon.NET/2009/09/PS3-and-UK-catchup-TV-services/

    The latest version of Flash Player for PS3 is exceeded (on the last UK firmware version 3.01 at time of this post) and after spending an hour scouring the internet for news on a next update without success, I decided to come hear and ask why that is?

    Why so the Sony PS3 still more than 12 months of delay on these updates?

    Please answer, because me and many others I'm sure, don't want to know.

    Thank you.

    Here's the answer... for devices (mobile phones, game boxes, set-top boxes, etc.) concede us the player to the manufacturer. They then get the player to you, and they are responsible for the update.  And this is the case for the PS3 at the moment.

    Honestly, I don't know how the BBC was doing in the iPlayer... But they have a special offer (they are an Adobe partner, giving them special privileges)...

  • Firefox 8.0, refuses to recognize the updated flash player

    8.0 on windows. Flash has completely stopped working. Flash update does nothing, the uninstall and reinstall flash does nothing. He also tells me that she has been "disabled for my safety" because I use an 'outdated' version even if I've just updated it. How can I fix it?

    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:

    • an ActiveX version for IE only
    • a plug-in version for most of the other browsers including Firefox
    • On a Windows system, you must always update both individually.

    You don't seem to have the Plugin for Firefox installed version. If you did, in the Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash (version)". If 'Shockwave Flash' is there and is disabled, click on the button "activate". NOTE: Yes, I saw that you said it has been disabled. The current version just came out a few days ago is 11.1.102.55.

  • How to enable flash player on firefox to always turn on by default

    So, while browsing the internet and watching flash videos became unresponsive and I stopped and sent the accident report. When I refreshed the videos to buffer again, I was invited to allow flash (Shockwave Player) to run. I never changed this setting to ask to activate before and I did it for me without my consent. When I tried to change that setting back always activate, the option is greyed out so I am not in a position to actually chose this option and continue my day. I'd not have to deal with this, because in my school, flash is heavily used and this has become a very big trouble that I would have corrected. Otherwise I will be forced to stop using Firefox, because it's too much an extra to have hassle to deal with. Also when updated to the latest version of flash player it does not correct the problem.

    Due to a vulnerability declared in the current version of Adobe (https://helpx.adobe.com/security/prod.../apsa15-04.html), Mozilla has soft-blocked the latest version of the Shockwave Flash plugin. Therefore, you must enable on trusted sites to use instead of being able to set Firefox to allow all sites use Flash automatically.

    If you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature a plugin, here's what to expect:

    When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

    If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. Your choice: for a current or permanent use.

    But the page might be using Flash only followed or playing a video ad. If you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification, it will just sit there in case you want later.

  • Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash Player for Firefox

    These two above ins card are offered by Firefox. However, I made several attempts to download and install these plug-ins, without success.

    Each time, the browser goes on the Adobe site. It says to access the instructions so installation of these plug-ins for Firefox. I'm going to the instructions and they claim that these plug-ins do not work with Firefox.

    My questions, if Firefox offers these plug-ins, why can't I install them.

    Please make sure you use the latest version of Firefox by going to the Help menu and selecting "in regard to Mozilla Firefox". The current version is 3.6.3 (to date), if you are using an older version, please download the latest version from the Firefox Web site. If you are using 3.6.3, try to visit Adobe for Adobe Reader download pages and Adobe Flash directly, note that you will probably agree to install Adobe (Adobe DLM) Download Manager and agree to several security prompts in the bar at the top of the page before the plugins to install. Here are direct links to the download pages:
