• Cannot install Flash 11 in Firefox

  Hi all.

  After several attempts of frustrating to get flash install, I wanted to post here to try to get assistance.

  Im running Windows 7 Pro SP1, 64-bit and try installing flash on Firefox 7.0.1.  I can download the installer from here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and it allows me to download a file named install_flashplayer11x64_mssd_aih.exe.  I tried to run this file under my normal account and as an administrator.  It will be run the file, bring up the UAC dialog, and then that's it.  There is no other box popping up, no progress bar or whatever it is in the same direction.  However, if I open the Task Manager this process is still running, but does some cycles CPU.  It shows also that the process of his running the installer as a 32-bit (indicated by the * 32 at the end of it in the Task Manager) if relevant. 

  Nothing happens, and I did not flash.

  I purged my temp folder to remove the additional installation files copied it, I launch the program uninstall and rebooted several times and no dice.

  I'd appreciate any insight really and/or assistance that can be offered by anyone.  I'm happy to make an additional contribution if this can help get this resolved.

  Thank you!

• Impossible to install Flash or Acrobat Reader, nothing happens, no errors on windows vista sp2

  I have two Dell laptops, one was my mother and the other is mine (Inspiron 15xx and 1750).  I deleted down two laptops using the restore factory images stored on computers.  I want that they fully working before I sell them or given the to a friend or relative.

  When I try to install Flash or Acrobat Reader, I first download and then run the installation program and then nothing happens, no screen of welcome, no please, wait or loading... dialog box, no error message, just absolutely nothing.

  I am a programmer with a degree in computer programming and I built my own computer, reinstalled, installed drivers, software and firmware, so I thought I should be able to solve this problem, but as the still I had no luck so far.

  I have:

  (1) installed all Windows updates

  (2) installed Windows Vista SP2

  (3) installed the updates of BIOS, drivers, software and firmware from Dell.

  (4) installed the last IE v7 to v9 present. (This fixes my problem to Skype "Sorry, we couldn't connect to Skype")

  (5) installed the latest Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistribution.

  (6) searched on the internet for the solution and followed a few steps that I thought looked promising but no solution so far.

  (7) I checked the logs install but they are empty either, I can't find the directory, or there is no log file here.

  For me the main problem is that I don't get any information, i.e. None of the error messages or logs, which makes it very difficult to seek solutions that are specific to my problems.  Anyone who can help me to identify the problem, it is find a mistake or a newspaper that shows where the problem is, would help me tremendously and close me solve the problem.

  I think I need to install some type of update will miraculously fix the problem, as point 4 above, where IE upgrade to v 9 fixed my problem of Skype, but I have no idea what it would be.

  Thank you in advance for all help me and I hope that this forum will help others.

  Thanks Abzyx.

  I use Firefox all the time and I would have downloaded Flash while in Firefox, but the download never worked.  The only solution that worked for me was what I mentioned in the post above (message number 7).

  Yes your right, I did not mention on the PDF reader, thanks for pointing that out.

  I noticed that you mentioned using another like Sumatra PDF reader, so I had to look that.

  I found that Nitro and Sumatra where 2 alternatives to Adobe Acrobat Reader.  Nitro looked like a more advanced system, but it does not work.  Sumatra seems simpler, but as PDF readers go, if I can read a PDF file, which is fine for me, Sumatra has worked well.

  Research on the internet I found a video that has been really good for my problem.  I'm looking for 'acrobat reader vista' and the 4 down link was a youtube video called "Install Adobe Reader in Windows Vista" on the page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wAki19nDSY

  After you follow the instructions in the video, I am Acrobat works.

  Basically, I went to the URL of the video: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/

  Then try to find the most recent version, so I tried 11.0.16, but this does not work, the video shows using 10.0.0, so I thought I would try to use 11.0.0 and if this does not work, try the version 10.0.0.  I found version 11.0.0 worked for me then once installed, I checked for update in Acrobat Reader and now I 11.0.8 and this seems to be the best version of work for my computer.

  Thank you again Abzyx and everyone who help me by posting your comments.  By studying what has been mentioned, internet search and try different installers and more clear, I found what I was looking for.

• 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

• Impossible to install Flash on Windows Internet Explorer 8.1

  My last version of flash player 14.0.0.176 and the more up-to-date for IE version is 15.0.0.189.

  When trying to install flash on IE I took to a Web page: Flash Player issues. Windows 8 (she has is narrowed to this in the editor)
  Essentially, it says that Flash Player is already integrated with Internet Explorer for Windows 8 and that I don't no need to install Flash Player.

  So now I guess if my internet explore has been updated so that I have the latest version of flash. Well, my computer has all the latest system updates which means that IE is updated.

  How can I solve this problem? How can I get flash set to update in IE?

  Thank you for your time.

  Sorry for your inconvenience with someone else's software. McAfee has been notified the problem with their software a couple of months before Firefox 5.0 was indeed released, when Mozilla has discovered that he was the cause of the #2 of crashing Firefox 5.0 beta versions.

• Impossible to install its driver under WXP SP3 on Satellite L45-SP2046

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L45-SP2046, which was brought to Australia, from Chile. There is a requirement to work having WXP rather than Vista (also installed Vista was in Spanish), that's why I installed Windows XP Home edition. I bought the license for XP SP3 and installed this. Only problem is the sound card.

  I got different drivers for this version of the L45 from a site in Spanish. The driver is apparently required for the sound is realtek driver. The problem is that I can t get the audio driver to install. I followed the entire instructions came with the driver. When windows asks you, click Cancel, and then use the installer provided. It did not work. I also tried the method of turning off then uninstall the driver of bus UAA and unknown device, then reinstall the driver from realtek. It has also didn t work. I tried several times and even restored the machine straight to the installation point and started again without success.

  Then I thought that I would check that it was the right card, so I booted in Linux on live CD and ran "lspci". It reported the card to be + "Intel Corporation 82801 G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller" + which is apparently Intel and maybe a connexant chipset? So I downloaded and tried to force the installation of the connexant driver, using all above methods. I understand that maybe it's just the chipset.

  After a day of googling and trying different methods, I'm stuck.

  I had this problem on another computer desktop and successful to get around it myself, but not this time. Can someone please help me understand how to install the audio driver on this laptop on XP Service Pack 3?

  Thank you
  Keith

  Hello

  I don't know if this will help, but try to install KB888111 and KB835221 patches. I don't know if they are part of the SP3 but try it
  After you install both of them try again to install the audio driver downloaded from US support page. I just hope that the books for North and South America are quite similar.

  One last thing. Have you used CD Windows XP Home with Service Pack 3 integrated facilities or you have installed SP3 later. When later, at what stage in the installation of Windows XP Home edition?

• 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

  Please help I found some info, but it's too high-tech for me to understand example go taskmaster > output tab firefox.exe process. may not even know where it is! If firefox will control upgrades there should be a less frustrating way to achieve! Please advise my next step is to uninstall it firefox & use a different program on the internet.

• How to install Adobe Flash player under OS PCBSD?

  I'm under PCBSD and have no idea how install Adobe flash player. I can't find the file, and the post is a tar/gz, but still have never installed something like this before. I am new to all this type of operating system. Tired of Microsoft and all crashes, bugs and other.

  Have you checked your distribution of Linux software installation to see if you can install Flash like that?

  If you have an archive tag.gz then you need to extract the files from this archive in a directory as Firefox scan for plugins.
