"The version of Adobe® Flash® Player ActiveX that you are trying to install is not the most recent"

Hello and thanks for your help.

I also have the problem of the error message shown above.

I checked IE 8 (Windows XP), I am the administrator and connect only to identity card), is running 32-bit, downloaded & ran the uninstaller Adobe, rebooted, reinstalled from the Adobe site, rebooted and have made this several times without success. Emptying the cache, stopped Norton EAST & Firewall (for installation), Internet options are set on medium, active x, java is active, and here is the screenshot of what is in my C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash (if all goes well it shows here)

I read the thread on the Flash display in Firefox... so I downloaded Firefox and seen the Tube U tutorials in this browser very well. Does not work in my IE8. (I also went to: IE/tools/manage add-ons (all add-ons), but the shock wave is not listed there) (see hidden files is enabled)

In Add/Remove Programs: Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin (Version 10.0.45.2) is listed with Adobe Shockwave Player 11.5 (Version 11.5.7.609)

I wonder if it is in conflict with Adobe Web Premium CS5 trial I downloaded to try Dreamweaver. I see it has Adobe Flash Professional CS5 & several other Flash programs that it contains or is this the same problem that everyone else seems to have?

Thank you

You're right: CS5 install Flash Player 10.1 beta.  You can't install an older version of Flash Player completely uninstall the beta version first:

  • How can I get Firefox 4 to recognize that I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player

    Firefox 4 refuses to play video clips. I get a box telling me that I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I just downloaded 10.3 and is yet to play video clips.

    You do not have Flash installed for Firefox. If you did you would see "Shockwave Flash (version number)" under modules > Plugins. You can see the Plugins reported with your question; Click on 'more system info... '. "to the right of your original question.

    There are 2 versions of Flash, a single IE (ActiveX version) and for most other browsers like Firefox (plug-in version). You must update each individually.

    To install or update Flash:

    1. using Firefox download and save Flash from this link (save to your desktop; easier for you to find): get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    2. When the download is complete, close Firefox (click Firefox > exit OR file > exit, if you use the Menu bar)
    3. Click or double-click the file that you just downloaded
    4. on the left side of the installation window, place a check in the box "I have read and agree."
    5. Click the Install button at the bottom right of the installation window. It comes on after you put the check mark in the previous step
    6. Let the complete installation; It's fast
    7. using Firefox to test your installation of Flash here: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

    Thank you in advance.

    First of all, check that the ActiveX filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

    https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/867968

    Internet Explorer 11 introduced a number of changes both in the way the browser is identified with remote web servers, and how it treats JavaScript for behavior targets specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the provider of content changes their site to conform to the new approach to development required by the modern versions of IE.

    You can try to work around these problems by using the compatibility view:

  • Google Chrome (Dev channel) using the old version of Adobe Flash Player

    Hi all

    I hope this isn't a stupid question. I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem regarding the browser Google Chrome Dev (Version 45.0.2438.3 dev - m (64 bit)) using an old version of Flash Player? Here are the details from the Plugins page. I have 18.0.0.205 beta installed (by ActiveX, NPAPI, PPAPI) However, these are the versions of 32-bit. Chrome will not give me access to any other plugin for flash player other than what is shown below. As far as I know the latest public version of the Chrome browser is 18.0.0.203?

  • Why I can't install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on Firefox 18.0.0.232?

    I tried and tried to get the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on Firefox, but it won't take. Tried through update on the plugin page, tried through the Adobe Web site and still no luck. I listed 18.0.0.232 version on my desktop, but it does not appear on Firefox. Anyone has an idea why not?

    You can download the 18.0.0.232 version here.
    https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

    Desinstaller.209 and then installer.232.

    BTW, Firefox needs a different version of Flash that IE uses and different from the one that use Chrome.

  • Once I downloaded the new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262, I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger.

    It could be a coincidence, but when I upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger. I know that when I've updated for a reason that I had to try 3 times before it took. It shows that it is updated. I wonder if I have to uninstall and reinstall. Also, I never use Internet Explorer 8 but when I went there to check I found a plug check link there and it showed over there that Adobe Flash Player necessary update but it was an older version and not a Foxfire had updated me too. Now I'm really confused if it causes a problem. I've never had to control Internet Explorer for plug-ins before. Have always just updated to Foxfire since that's what I use. Adobe Flash Player seems to play videos OK not really sure if this is the issue or not. My Java plug-ins have been very well and have been updated some time there, so I know it's not that. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

    Hey again,
    After hours of reading and checking to make sure I had good things enabled, I did, I gave up and uninstalled the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, they gave me and re-installed and later I had my friend get on Messenger and we tried games and it worked this time.
    For some strange reason when I updated it took me 3 tries before it took. So even if he told me that it has been installed, apparently it wasn't really. Just goes to show you that you can not trust what you see.
    What has really scratching my head was I went to Internet Explorer 8, which I never use more and discovered you can now get Mozilla plug in slip out there and when I did showed that same Adobe Flash Player is outdated but it was to a different version. Not knowing if it would help, I installed a new too and he said it was his understanding that it does not. So I guess you can have 1 version installed on the computer 1 despite 2 browsers different different versions. It becomes too complicated for me. Laughing out loud!
    I work with computers all the time at work but not the technical stuff. If it's something simple, I can guess through it to help someone but it's my first personal computer for me and is a former first, so I got experience using different types. We use the desk at work as well. Personally, I like computers laptops for various reasons. And the mention of people many browsers go way over my head.
    Please answer this question though and you answer back.

    Use: HP Deskjet F4480

    Message: "HP Solution Center has determined that you don't have the correct version of Adobe Flash Player installed for Internet Explorer. You can easily download and install this application for Internet Explorer to... "followed by a link to the page update Flash

    I first saw this message a couple a days ago, so I went and update of Flash Player using the link in the quoted error... fine & dandy until I went online and then remembered WHY I didn't have the latest version of Flash PLayer installed! I use a back on Flash version because the latest version crashes in Mozilla Firefox. If I update Flash Player for IE (that I don't use really), it gives me all the time that I use Firefox just Flash crash errors.

    At this point, I suppose that there is an update for the HP Solution Center that started to search for a particular version of Flash Player?

    I have team around and can find no current solution for this. Is there a way I can roll the Solution Center back then it stops looking for what version he thinks I need? Link? I'm a bit of a fix because I just installed new ink & can't calibrate or scan.

    My Flash Player is version 10 because it is stable in Firefox.

    There is unfortunately no way to roll back the installation of the software for Solution Center, unless you happen to have the disc that came with the printer or an earlier version of the software downloaded to your computer. The HP website only includes the latest version of the software. If you still had the drive, you can uninstall the software and reinstall from the disc, which would have the old version of the solution to this topic Center.

  • Impossible to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player

    Recently I started getting the following message when you try to view a video:

    Flash Player upgrade required. You must download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to view this content.

    Whenever I clicked on the button to download the new version and every time, in the end, been informed: "successful Installation".

    However, even if the installation was 'successful' when I try to watch a video I get the same message asking to only upgrade to the new version.  I should mention, however, that I can view videos stored in my own drive.  But, I get the message 'upgrade' when you try to view a video of Facebook or on the web.

    In an attempt to "solve problems", I did the following:

    1. I went to Control Panel/programs/uninstall programs and ODAbeing Flash Player 11 X Active appears in the list of programs.
    2. I also went to the configuration/programs/program Panel and installed updates / features view and it IS NOT to see at all.

    This seems to be something very simple that I'm on, but I just keep overlooking it!  Can you help me please?

    Go to search the web, it appears on the surface Rt comes with adobe flash 11.3 it is the last version that is compatible with the RT 11.5 was released, but he is not yet a compatible system for the surface.  I would say that windows update will tell us when a new version comes out.  If you want to force the installation when the update is made available, I suggest searching for "install optional updates ' which will allow you to install then right rather than opening the item updates control because it only allows you to check (all by the charm of the search)!
