-REQUIRED WORKAROUND FLASH PLAYER 9 is a BIG PROBLEM

Recently, my user has started having problems where it could not run Flash on all Web pages. At this point, the problem is that used to install Flash Player 9 either IE 6 or 7 - I've tried both. There is no other obvious real symptoms that Flash wouldn't install. Also tried ALL the suggestions in the support FAQ from Adobe, all to nothing done. Even ran a Registry cleaner, several times.

But now, there is a track-able symptom. After resetting EVERYTHING to do with the browser IE 7, when I install Flash, I get error message installing saying was blocked by IE because the editor of the ultrashim.cab file could not be identified. What's up with that?

Someone at Adobe forgot to update a database published somewhere? Anyone know a work-around? Adobe, are you listening? Or will it end in frustration and we will abandon Flash, as I have already done with the Acrobat software and Adobe PDF?

I had the same problems accurate - uninstalled/installed Flash and Shockwave. Used appropriate uninstaller, looked for rogue extension .dll files, cleaned the files C:\Windows\System32\Macromedia\Flash, looked at manage them add-ons, posted on this forum, email Adobe, spoke with them on the phone and even uninstalled IE7 and went back to IE 6. None of this has helped.

Reading some of the responses on various positions, I found the following:

Uninstall flash with the last stand alone Adobe uninstaller

Download full Standalone install Flash Player 9 version of
http://www.softwarepatch.com/Internet/Flash.html

Uninstall shockwave with the last Adobe only support program uninstaller

Download the stand-alone installer for Shockwave Player: previous versions only

Note: The Windows XP operating system users must use the Shockwave player 8.5.1 or higher. For more information, please seeInstalling the Shockwave Player on Microsoft Windows XP (TechNote tn_15924).
Windows Shockwave Player 9.0.0.434

I tried last night - and then the other - and they both work very well.

    I have installed:

    -Flash Builder 4.5

    -windows 7, 64 bit

    -The most recent Flash Player - 11.3.r300.257

    Please, let me know how to properly use debugger in Flash Builder 4.5 without error message below:

    SebaR

    This is a known bug in Flash Builder 4.5 and 4.6.

    It will be fixed in the next version of Flash Builder.

    The workaround for Flash Builder 4.5 and 4.6 is to download the two 32-bit & 64-bit debug player.

  • I need to access sites that require adobe flash player on the iPad.  What can I use to allow me to access?

    I need to access sites that require adobe flash player on the iPad.  I can access these sites on my imac with adobe flash player then why not on my ipad.

    What can I use to allow me access to these sites, which are for educational purposes for my grandson to allow him to do his homework?

    While you can get Adobe Flash on the iMac, you can't be on the iPad. There are some browsers in the App Store that will emulate flash, I think that one of them is atomic, or something like that. Do a search on the App Store and you should find something.

  • I manually downloaded and installed 11.1 adobe flash player on my device mobile android, but still I can't view a course I'm taking, and which requires adobe flash player 8 or higher? Please help me

    Please help me

    Hi scottd57904809,

    Flash Player is not supported on all mobile devices as such, no support is provided for this.  If the content you are trying to view requires Flash 8 then it is more likely is the culprit the content itself, or the device.  Mobile technology has advanced a bit since Flash 8 and 11.1.

  • I installed Microsoft Fix It and now I can't play anything with IE9 which requires Adobe Flash Player

    Instead, I receive a message to install the latest verstion of Adobe Flash Player (which I have already installed) and even if I try to install Flash Player again, no go.  No video.  I tried on several Web sites.  I don't know if this really has nothing to do with Microsoft Fix It, or if there are some problems with the security of IE9.

    In Internet Explorer, go to tools > manage Addons and check that the Shockwave Flash object is listed and enabled. Then go to tools > Security and ensure that ActiveX filtering is not enabled.

  • Flash Player 10.3 with AEC problem

    I have a problem: in Adobe Cirrus Sample Application with Flash Player 10.3 (Windows) there is no noise. The sound appears only if the checkbox "Acoustic Echo Cancellation" is disabled. A month ago there was no such problem - Cirrus Sample Application worked well in Flash Player 10.3 with AEC in lit. Version of flash player is the same as it was a month ago.

    Someone could say what is the reason of this problem and how do I solve it? Thank you very much.

  • Latest Flash player on IE9 and Win7 problems

    After many attempts, I was finally able to install the last Flash on IE9. Installer says installed successfully. Each page visited then poped a mistake than Flash Player IE would open outside of protected mode. Previous version does not cause an error. Internet Explorer settings have not changed. Uninstaller used Flash. Downloaded Flash for IE and non-IE. Version of IE installed. Installer says installation is successful. Same popup of protected mode.

    Don,

    If you haven't already done so, you could:

    1. download uninstaller stand alone

    2. reboot your system

    3. launch the uninstaller

    4 remove the following folder, depending on your operating system:

    • 32-bit Windows - c:\Windows\system32\macromed
    • Windows 64-bit - c:\windows\syswow64\macromed

    5 restart your computer

    6. download and install Flash Player located here:

  • Adobe Flash Player update required

    Hi all!  I have a HP Pavilion dv6-2190us laptop and I use IE9 with the original Win7/64 OS.  He worked flaulessly for a year and a half and I still don't think that there is nothing wrong with the laptop itself.  But, after my latest Adobe update, which was Flash Player 11.5.502.135, all the sites I'll requires the Flash player to play the video, I get a popup message telling me that I need to upgrade to Flash 9 or higher version and then refresh the page.

    I have re-installed Flash Player several times but it didn't help.  I suspect possibly some conflict with my security settings and the more return version of the Flash Player.

    I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience and if they found a solution?

    Well, dag-nabbit!  I've been messing around with this problem for a week.  Since I did this last update of Adobe.  I use "tracking protection" or a little of this software which blocks the Google to follow my browsing and I thought that might have been part of the issue.

    It turns out that I just solved it the question a few minutes ago.  Somewhere along the line, the ActiveX filtering turned 'On' and which is in conflict with the use of Adobe Flash in IE9.  Simply ONE-checking AxtiveX filtering enabled him to work 'after', I removed the Flash Player, re-installed twice, (first said that I could not write a file) and with all my protection after power off.

    Bottom line is that it works now and I came across an Adobe website that describes the problem with filtering ActiveX with IE9.  I think filtering is probably a good security feature and there may be a way to have activated "ON" with an exception for the Flash in the future.

    I was finally able to turn my protection of follow-up, and all is well.

    Thanks for the quick response.

  • ADOBE FLASH PLAYER IS NOT displayed on the modules, and even if I install it on my computer it syncs with Firefox to play movies

    Vudu requires Adobe Flash Player for movies and gives me an error message saying that I need to upgrade to the latest version and it gives a link. When I followed the link and install the latest version, I still get the same message. I checked the Add-ons Firefox and Adobe Flash Player does not appear as an add-on available or plug-in. What is the problem?

    Hello

    Make sure that you have downloaded the Flash Player right as Firefox uses a different plugin than Internet Explorer (which uses ActiveX).

  • Why Adobe Flash Player does not open?

    All Web sites that I visit that require Adobe Flash Player insist that I need to download and install it. Now... I checked and I have the latest version (version 20.0.0.267) installed, but it does not open.

    I went into system preferences to check its settings and everything looks fine, however, I noticed that it is not in the Applications folder, which is where I always noticed it in the past. He should be here (because I guess that one?) or Adobe that has changed its position?

    Flash Player is a browser plugin and not an application.

    Open Safari preferences to 'allow' to open.
