What is Adobe flash player needed for
Hi Alison68,
Welcome to the responses of Microsoft Windows Vista forums.
Adobe Flash Player is a software for viewing animations and movies using computer programs such as a web browser; in common usage, Flash lets you put animation and movies on a web site. Flash Player runs SWF files that can be created by the Adobe Flash authoring tool, Adobe Flex or by a number of other Macromedia and third-party tools. The Flash Player has been designed to display 2D vector animation, but since become appropriate to create rich Internet applications and streaming video and audio. It uses vector graphics to minimize the file size and create files save bandwidth and loading time. Flash is a common format for games, animations, and GUIs embedded in web pages. Flash Player is available as a plugin for recent versions of browsers web (such as Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Safari and Internet Explorer) on selected platforms. Adobe States that each version of the plugin is backward compatible, with the exception of security changes introduced in Version 10.

I always had an Adobe Flash Player update for my frustrating timing Mac users and have tried to find ways to run the upgrade to multiple users via ARD, but could never find the .pkg file. Today, after a lot of research I found this help file,
https://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash-Player/KB/installation-problems-Flash-Player-Mac.html
To this is a link to the .dmg file that contained the .app file that had the installer .pkg. The link has been labeled the Flash Player for Safari and Firefox - NPAPI
My question is: can I use this link to get the latest Flash Player .pkg installer in the future?
Hi wkrites,
The PACKAGE inside the APP as a whole is not intended for distribution, you are referring and will not install some required components.
If you distribute Flash Player within your organization, we offer a PKG Installer to be used by tools such as ARD. If you have not done so, you need a license to distribute Flash Player within your organization. You will then receive an email with the URL to visit to download the installation file of. Please see Adobe Flash Player Distribution. Adobe for more information on the Flash Player licenses and candidate.
The Flash Player Administrator's Guide, http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_admin_guide.html, contains useful information for the Flash Player deployment administrator within their organization.

I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but still miss me Flash Player?
So I installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox and I am able to watch videos of youtube on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that I got with my Samsung screen, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not actually have flash player. Also, when I try to play a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be and he says that I don't have a flash drive, and it is necessary to watch these videos. I tried to uninstall and I was unable to Watch youtube videos, and when I reinstalled, I was able to Watch youtube even once, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something that I am missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.
Chances are that it is looking for the IE plugin: (a lot of software just assumes all Windows users are "slaves to Microsoft" and only have IE installed.)
Flash Player ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
or the stand-alone version of the player:

Firefox, adobe flash player needs update when it is not
I am running Firefox desktop 35.0.1. I have Adobe flash player installed 16.0.0.235, which is practically the last version, but for Firefox tells me that I should update the plugin and "Always enable" is greyed out. This means that I have to manually turn on the flash on any page I visit which it executes.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks sam, what it seems that this is supposed to be so this could not explain the source of the problem unfortunately.
Another thing to try is to force a reload of the red list since the mozilla servers. to https://wiki.mozilla.org/Blocklisting/Testing#Forcing_a_Blocklist_Ping , it is explained how to do this. -
Win IE10, Adobe Flash Player, fails for 32B / 64B IE
Since the installation of Internet Explorer, Adobe Flash player refused to work. I keep getting messages of type "install" on the product, and yet, I have it on auto-update; and its existed for a very long time.
Before IE10, there seemed to be no problems.
AFP has been installed multiple times, without integration with IE 10.
Please let me know if there is a solution, or when it can be outside.
Thank you.

Strange icon that will not allow the update to Adobe Flash Player 17 for mac
When I download the most recent Adobe Flash update for mac I have a strange icon.
When I double click to launch the update file, I get an even weirder window full of gibberish.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I'm open. I went through each help file I can find for Adobe and nothing has helped so far.
Hi Threigia,
Remove the .mdlp of file name, so that it ends just .dmg.
We are seeing this behavior with users who have installed of MathLab and we look at why this is happening. FWIW, this happens to other software THAT DMG files as well, not only the installer of Flash Player. For some reason when users have installed, MathLab when the DMG file is downloaded, it adds the extension .mdlp for her. When users try to run it, rather than open with DiskImageMounter, which is what OS X uses to open DMG files, it opens using MATLAB and the result is what you posted. In this case in the future, simply remove ".mdlp" from the file name and DiskImageMounter will open the DMG, instead of Matlab.

Thank you.

Hello
No, it certainly isn't a Flash Player update to the official address notification. If you have the full URL path that generated it, please private message it me and I'll pass it on to the team of fraud for study.
Thank you.

All plugins are updated. This has only started happening recently. Plugins seems to start for a few seconds (not more than 5) and then crash. Chances are that there is more than a problem with Silverlight and Flash, but they are the only two I use really.
Follow the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
- Troubleshoot extensions, themes, and issues of hardware acceleration to resolve common problems of Firefox
- Solve problems with plugins like Flash or Java to solve the common problems of Firefox
- Clear the Cache and Cookies
Check and tell if its working.

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.
