• Problem installing Adobe Flash Player on my computer

  Last week I installed Webroot Antivirus and Spy Sweeper on my computer and since then I can not load my pictures on Facebook or send them to CVS or Walgreens to develop their. I tried several times to load Adobe Flash Player, followed all the instructions and nothing.  I'm totally frustrated. I waited more than an hour on the phone to a technician from Adobe, and all he could do was direct me to this forum. I have a Dell computer, 32 System. I usually use Windows Explorer as my browser. There, someone can help me please?

  Baetica:

  I'm glad that you were able to solve the problems you have had and had Flash works correctly. I got far too much irrelevant information and could keep my more clear and concise instructions. It is easy for PC technicians lose from the point of view of the learning curve when it comes to people like yourself who just want to turn on the computer and make it work.

  Adobe is a big company that puts great software (despite what says Steve Jobs). I have read through the final replies and hope that some of what I proposed. I know, it can be frustrating sometimes when applications do not work as they should, but the problem is not always obvious (i.e. the default Adobe). Sometimes it's an apparently independent Windows OS (XP, VISTA, 7) update (XP Service Pack updated automatically to one of my clients and not one member of 15-person staff, including doctors not being not able to access the records of patients, could get on the software of medical practice. The bottom line what everyone hates on Microsoft Windows (the seemingly random questions, buggy) is what everyone loves about MS Windows (with so many options for software and hardware, there is necessarily be conflicts and errors.)

  Once again, glad to hear you solved your problem.

• Cannot install Adobe Flash Player on Firefox

  Hello

  I already had the Adobe Flash Player version 11 on my PC. Now, I tried to update the plugin and I tried to install Adobe Flash Player 20 on my PC with Windows XP, SP2, 32-bit version, Firefox and Panda anti-virus. I disabled the antivirus and it still will not be installed.

  Initially, I got the "Connection failed" message when I tried to install downloaded Adobe Flash Player by clicking twice. Now when I go to the Adobe website and download the Flash Player version 20, nothing happens when I double click on the downloaded Adobe Flash Player.

  
  

  How can I get the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed and works on my PC to watch videos or do I have to go back to older versions of Adobe Flash Player?

  
  

  Thank you.

  I have the same problem on one of my machines and similar settings. Maybe it's because we are still in Service Pack 2 for XP. According to this site: Adobe Flash Player | Technical specification understand the system requirements for Windows XP SP3 (see 2nd point to the needs of Windows). However, this page is not dated, nor the version number specified, so I do not know if the requirement of SP3 was just to publish for Flash Player v20, or if it has been the 'official' requirement for a while now. I know that a previous version (19.0.0.226) works on my SP2 system, so you can try and install it (even if she is no longer the safer version). I almost never run flash more, except on a small handful of sites that require it (and which I used for years). I also have my settings flash on "Ask to activate" on the page of Firefox plugins, so I have to enable it explicitly whenever a site wants to run flash. Many sites want to run flash for animation of advertising, so it actually speeds things upwards when I do not allow it to run on those.

  I play with other settings on this computer to see if I can get the v20 installation program to run (if so, I will post it here), but we have just upgraded to SP3 if we want the latest version of flash. I held off upgrading the operating system for a long time on this machine, and I can finish just retire it in any case. For what it's worth, v20 FlashPlayer installed without problems on my Win7 machine.

  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.

• I recently installed Adobe Flash Player ActiveX 11 - 11.4.402.265 and when I open my Mozilla Firefox browser I get this message flashing on my screen: '

  I recently installed Adobe Flash Player ActiveX 11 - 11.4.402.265 and when I open my Mozilla Firefox browser I get this message flashing on my screen: "Adobe Flash Player 11.4 r402 has stopped working" and then "Windows is checking for a solution"

  It flashes several times then stops usually but not always.

  It happens every time I try to open a new page.

  I solved this problem by uninstalling Adobe Flash Player 11 and install Adobe Flash Player 10.3. However, now my IE browser again wants me to install Adobe Flash Player 11. Although I do not often use my IE browser, I DON'T have to use sometimes. Is there a Firefox 15.0 update to fix this problem?

  First of all, the Flash of the IE is totally different than the flash used in Firefox. You can update one without affecting the other.

  Now, there is a problem right now with Flash 11.3 and 11.4 in Firefox. Downgraded to 10.3 is an acceptable solution for the moment. Adobe publishes the updates (slowly) that solve the problems, but it is not a matter of time before they are all fixed.

  Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - avoid that it happen
