Question about the Flash Player installer

I downloaded the installer from Adobe Flash Player on my Mac - OS Mavericks.  The installer does not accept my password to install the update.  Gives the message "password changed" I went to Adobe and changed my password, but the installer still does not accept the password or start the installation.

Hi John,.

The required password is not your AdobeID password.  It's the password of your computer, allowing you to connect to your account.  Please see what userid & password I need to install Flash Player? for more information.

  • Need to force the Flash Player installer to work even if it is out of date.

    There are a lot of PC in our network of the firm has to Flash Player version 11.1, on which is installed. We tried to get version 18 for all these PC, when Adobe released another update and all of a sudden that we used to push the update installation program will no longer work. We must be able to choose a single installer and work with it until all users in our system are up-to-date - regardless of whether or not Adobe releases yet another player update in the meantime. Is it possible to force the installer to work even if it is not the ABSOLUTE latest version? Otherwise, our users will not be just a version behind - they will continue to keep DOZENS of versions behind. I know that Adobe wants to force us to use the latest version of player safety, but in such a case the result is actually less of security.

    Any suggestions? Thanks for listening.

    Hi brandonLancaster,

    Rate of normal release of the flash player is both - per month, the second Tuesday of the month.  Out-of-band releases occur when there are challenges of high-risk security bug, which we had recently.  What seems to have happened, is that client machines have been updated to the latest version, while you try to put a version prior to these systems. We can check this by looking at the FlashInstall.log file on a client computer that returned this error.  The FlashInstall.log file is located in the following location:

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

    You can send the contents of the file in your response, or download it by following the instructions that the specified item was not found. and after the URL in the files downloaded in your response.

    To avoid this scenario does not happen in the future, you disable the updates on the computers of your customers and then only deploy updates through your system of the EDSM.  To do this, you will need to deploy a custom file mms.cg with updates disabled for client systems.  The Flash Player Admin Guide examines various deployment strategies in Chapter 3.  Chapter 4 discusses managers features related to security, privacy, the use of disk space and so on, and the AutoUdpates section is on page 31.

    In addition, you can sign up to receive the Security Bulletin and the opinion here notice and Security Bulletins.  When a bulletin/notice is posted you would receive an email notification and can then go download the latest version, when it is validated and remove what to your client computers.

    A recovery USB drive created using the Recovery Media Creator contains the Windows operating system and is it the Windows key to reinstall - how it is activated. Is it different for the repair disk.

    Can be used for a new installation of Windows 7 on a new SSD? Is this just a case of connection and the recovery disc running on the new drive to th? How the recovery Partition can be re-created on a new SSD?

    Drop Hello

    I can see user Justinian gave detailed answers, and I hope you understand how it all works now. Of my overwiev aside:

    What exactly is recovery image?
    + Recovery image is an exact copy of a hard drive and contains the exact copy, byte by byte, a hard disk partition. The copy includes all the partition information, sectors priming, the table of allocation of files, installation of operating system and software application different. +
    + You are using installation Recovery CD/DVD/USB, you can restore your system after heavy data loss, caused by an accident of operating system, hardware failure or complete virus attack. +
    + Recovery image installation procedure allows the installation of system and easy to user. Unfortunately, it is not possible to restore only certain files from a disk image. +
    + Each recovery image is designed for a specific model laptop and it cannot be used for any other series of notebook. +

    With other words, recovery image is a software package that contains Windows operating system, all the drivers needed for some portable model, Toshiba tools, utilities, and also some other software. A lot of people don't like these additional software, but no you don't have to use it. all things you don't like you can remove it from the system.

    Activation of recovery image:
    When you buy the phone model you also purchase the license for the preinstalled OS version that you get with your machine. After start and contact to the internet OS will be checked and activation will be valid.

    Please note: you can reinstall original image recovery 100 times if necessary. There is not a kind of limitation, and whenever it will be activated.

    Take care of your recovery media (DVD/USB). Do not lose it.

    Of course, it can happen that you do not find your recovery media. In this case you can order.

  • OSX: Flash Player installer appears easily 10 x per day

    Dear Adobe team,

    On my Macbook Pro with OSX 10.11.6 the app to install flash player launches easily 10 times a day, without asking me for it.

    What is happening is that I do my job and at random, get a pop-up saying that Flash player is up-to-date on my system.

    10 times. a. day.

    Unfocuses some app I work too much so I often in bulk text because of its input.

    I don't know what make the top to open it, I have the following programs open all day: Firefox 48.0.1, Apple Mail, Mailplane 3, Slack, Apple Notes.

    I can't spend a day with these applications closed for troubleshooting, it's my work machine.

    Do you have any suggestions what to do? How do I update the Flash Player installer or why is this application even on my system?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Screen Shot 2016-09-07 at 14.44.44.png

    Thanks for the info.

    The reason that the pop - up that happens is that the plugin PPAPI (used by Opera and browser based on Chromium, except Chrome) is an older version of Flash Player.  Update checker runs and tries to check for an update, but the check fails because of an error "unable to connect to the server.  Because he cannot connect to the server, it then returns the message you see.  We have not seen the error returned in your log file and need to continue the investigation.

    Use a proxy server?

    Your system has restrictions on what processes can access the internet?

    If you use the PPAPI plugin, launch the Chrome browser that uses it and go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the latest version of the PPAPI plugin.

    If you have / use a browser based on Chromium, I recommend you to uninstall.  Unfortunately, the Mac uninstaller program currently does not support remove them that type a (for example, PPAPI only or NPAPI only) Player.  It allows you to uninstall all Flash Player plugins present on the system and you will then need to re - install the NPAPI (used by Firefox) plugin.  To uninstall using the standalone uninstall program or the Adobe Flash Player installed by located in/Applications/Utilities.  After that the player is uninstalled, start Firefox and go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the NPAPI plugin.

  • flash player installer

    Long ago, adobe has decided not to distribute flash via the believing, but there a workaround for us who do not want to have a Manager to download a 10 MB file. Normally to get flash I go to using flash and download the version of the plugin, but now I go to the same page and the link is not there. using the manager isn't an option, is there another workaround solution or am I forced to download a virtual computer and and taking the plugin like this.

    It is very annoying and a platform that 97% of all PCs have installed, it simply does not exist.

    If your program is Photoshop Elements, then you have posted in the wrong forum. Some how your son got posted in the Forum Adobe Premiere elements (video editing). Please re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop elements Forum.

Then, you the best avenue to success is likely to be through the Adobe Photoshop elements Forum. But that shouldn't stop you trying to determine what kind of support you can get from Adobe cat on your question.

  • new updated flash player installation does not install and cannot uninstall the old version

    been trying to install the most recent update of the adobe reader, but it will not be installed at gets all the up to 7% then gpes far so I tried to uninstall, but it will not uninstall need help! I use google chrome on my macbook pro

    Google Chrome (even on a Mac) has its own exclusive construction of Flash Player ("PepperFlash"). It was modified by Google, incorporated by Google and maintained by Google. Adobe is working with Google for updates and patches, but it is "their baby" once it happens in the browser. It cannot be updated through this site. It updates ONLY by updating Chrome.

    There are instructions to perform a "clean installation" (How to perform a "clean installation" of Flash Player in Mac OS X) but that doesn't apply to the Flash Player for Safari and Firefox plugin.

    You can try this:

    Go to: [username] / Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome ([username] / library is accessible by pressing the "Option" when you click on 'Go' in the Finder menu)

    Inside the Chrome folder is a folder named "PepperFlash".

    Trash and empty the trash.

    Restart Chrome.

    He must rebuild the file system plugins. Otherwise, update of Chrome and it will be.

  • questions about the uses of flash cs6 and the code that it exports VS. switch to other tools

    I looked at the overviews on the new version of flash and I did experiment a bit with muse and edge of adobe. I have also heard the announcement Friday 4.1 android devices will run is no longer the flash player. my questions are:

    1 does flash cs6 fuction basically the same design-wise, but when it comes to export the file, the code a combination of html and javascript rather than in a solid swf file as it was currently publishing my work as?

    2 East edge meant to supplement flash? or he will take some of the uses of the flash so edge can publish for flash and mobile devices will remain in the area of desktop applications?

    3. If I created full-flash sites in older versions of flash, can I import in cs6 and make them exported as functional across all devices?

    I guess that, overall, just trying to get an overview here so that I can decide how to move forward and what to focus on.

    Thank you!

    1. Yes. The Toolbox for CreateJS is an additional downloadable extension for Flash CS6. He's going to post html and js files that will provide the animation rather than the swf file that you would normally publish. The success or failure of the version of javascript from your animation is the result of the work within the Toolbox. You are a bit constrained in the use of the timeline in Flash for your animations. If you are only working in Actionscript, then the output will be very disappointing.

    2 edge outputs javascript, css and html for you give an animation. The user interface allows you to design within the limits of what can make the border. You can preview and adjust and adjust your animation work you. Edge is a tool of html5. It can create some animation html5. It is not a replacement for Flash. It's something that you can use to integrate the animation in html instead of Flash.

    The problems and the benefits of each are unique. It is a good substitute to learn javascript, css and HTML 5. If you don't understand the code that is created from each of these tools, you can easily end up with huge, inflated, files which improved. I'm very biased towards really knowing what is happening. If I need to change something, I want to be able to enter the code and make a change, do not add an extra piece of code to work around what was there. I don't use any of the timeline, and so nothing of what I publish using CreateJS. Well, he's going to publish, but nothing happens because there is nothing on the timeline to translate.

    You can download a trial version of Flash CS6 and try to box at tools for yourself. Edge is still in free preview, you can get a copy to http://labs.adobe.com and try to see how it works.

    Also, if you do not use the Greensock Animation with Flash platform, take a look at this. It has recently been extended to ensure similar Javascript for most libraries. http://www.greensock.com/
