• I TRIED TO INSTALL FLASH PLAYER FOR A MONTH!

  Hello

  I don't mean this post to sound like a complaint, and I don't want to write an essay either.

  It truly is a request for help.

  First of all:

  I used to have Flashplayer (what Flash Player I don't know) but it worked fine. All of a sudden all over the place where I was going to start asks me to install the latest version of Flash Player. This includes the BBC, Youtube or any website that offers video - most of them (like Adobe) bit near the familiar names in the twenty-first century. Adobe is clearly enough BIG! Even the BBC cannot function without Adobe!

  It has gotten to the point where I expect the bus inspectors to jump on 192 in manchester and tell me that I can't Board the bus without the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. In fact, know how to install it became as a job full time I dream on Adobe at night and think about every wake-up time. I imagine that when this new version of Flash Player is finally installed it will blow my mind?

  Good so I'm kidding (sort of). But honestly, this issue has lost hours and hours of my time and was compounded by an Adobe website which is like an enigma of merrygorounds. Nothing is clear and nothing seems to make a link to where it says it goes - if it happens on the houses of the beginning. I just spent half an hour (starting at the homepage linked to by the BBC) to change the United States to the United Kingdom / selection Support then through about four or five pages looking for this support only discover that I had brought to the start to change back to the United States to the United Kingdom. I know I'm right on this point because in the ADOBE adventure of the last months, I actually found the troubleshooting pages for Flash Player several times (all as too madly but in different ways).

  I'm not a computer programmer, I'm a user of software Web site. I'm currently building a site with more than 1000 pages of different interdependent themes for a non profit organization this still has a lot of mistakes, but in spite of not being paid a penny for it--it's easier to use and understand than to Adobe - so my username.

  YOU NEED TO FIX YOUR LINK SYSTEMS! Because they get the help of a large international manufacturer of software for a product that is advertised as FREE, but is ESSENTIAL for viewing active content on almost all legitimate sites on the World Wide Web must be frustrating thousands or even hundreds of thousands of users of Adobe. Ultimately it's not good for business!

  I tried to install Flash Player 10

  I uninstalled previous installations of AdobeFP, Java value to allow. Correct registry permissions.

  I have identified my problem through your page of troubleshooting like ' FP installs OK (according to a visible writing half in a small box to the right of the screen), but still will not play.  Incidentally, despite this visible writing half claiming I managed to install FP - flash animation do not play and there is no text below it - as suggested by dialogue doesn't appear.

  Nothing wrong with my registry at least that the failed attempts to install FP has corrupted the WAS.

  I read document kb400116 (and others) and followed them to the letter.

  I use IE7 on WXP Home and McAffee home security (nothing to do with them either).

  I firmly believe (reading some posts here) that the problem resides with ADOBE!

  Someone has any suggestions, or should I stop paying my BBC licence?

  Thank you

  I did read what you wrote, so I may have missed a few points. If I understand correctly, you have installed 10 FP on IE7, but it won't play any Flash content?

  Try this

  • Download uninstaller http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157_fr FP
  • Close all the browser windows, and then run the uninstall program
  • Download the installation program for Internet Explorer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe ActivX offline
  • Close all the browser windows, and then run the installation program

• While trying to install flash player, the software to communicate in Russian - I don't speak this language and need to fix this.  Help!

  While trying to install flash player, the software to communicate in Russian - I don't speak this language and need to fix this.   How can I fix the problem of language?

  Hello

  I was able to reproduce the behavior when I updated the Russia region.  If the language and region are worth English/United States of America, the behavior does not occur.  Did you by chance, perhaps by accident, change the region to Russia at some point and then change it back? You have rebooted your system since then?

  I will forward this to the people who handle the installer online and see if they can reproduce.

  In the meantime, you can check to see if the installer offline, full, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page exhibit this same behavior?

  Whenever I try to update or install the latest version of Flash player, I always get a white window opening. If I close this window, the Setup file disappears in the downloaded folder.

• I am trying to install flash player, but he always tells me that I have not sufficient permissions

  Currently, I'm trying to download a Flash update on my MacBook Pro and he always tells me that I have not sufficient permissions to do so. After talking with the Apple support they said that there are no problems with my permissions user that I'm an admin so it's a matter of Adobe. I have the same problem of "permissions" when I try to save changes using photoshop and it drives me crazy. Any help would be appreciated.

  Hi Gina,

  Sorry for the inconvenience, using Photoshop and Flash update. Looks like there may be some permissions on system issues.

  Two ways to fix this-

  1. Repair your disk permissions - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201560
  2. Create a new user account and try to work on this account (create new accounts new own permissions) - es.html #Permissions blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/07/photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-most-issu

  Try these suggestions and let us know how it goes.

  Hi GFAngel-9,

  Thanks for posting the screenshot.  It was very useful.

  For non-French speaking people who may come across this message, the error is "Flash Player ActiveX Control fails to register".

  The error record is generally returned when there are problems with permissions in the registry or the file system where the Flash Player is installed in.  Please read the FAQ How can I fix Windows with Flash Player permission problems? or the tech note Flash Player | Windows registry permissions.  The FAQ contains a video about the difficulty of running during the tech note contains more detailed information about the permissions problem.
