  • Windows defender does not load and cannot download Adobe flash player

    I think I have a security problem with windows defender, because it does not load. In addition, a file I have download must have the permissions of the administrator to continue, which was also changed and I had checked him to ask permission. For this reason, I can't download adobe reader. It has an error that keeps coming back whenever I try to download it, and after I executed the file, he's just in a display type of backup file, where it was downloaded, but it will not work on the second stage, when you need the permission of an administrator. I has not yet come. Can someone tell me what to do?

    "It is said that I need adobe flash player.

    Download and run the Flash Player uninstaller program.

    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.Screen Shot 2015-04-01 at 11.11.00 AM.png

    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.

  • How can I download Adobe Flash Player on Windows XP?

    I reinstalled Windows XP computer that HAD Adobe Flash Player on it, then reinstalled Firefox. Only, I couldn't reinstall Adobe Flash Player! Check why I can't download Adobe Flash Player on my Windows XP? Yahoo Answers. There is no error message, no matter what. Simply Setup does not open. I've tried everything. The Adobe Live Chat was no help at all, and I created an Adobe account to get help. Someone help me?

    This Service Pack, if any, you have installed on your XP system?

    See How to check that Windows XP Service Pack is installed on your computer?

    If you have not installed Service Pack 3, you will need to install it, at least for setup work. Latest Flash Player installers are signed using SHA-256 signature certificates.  Older versions of XP don't support SHA - 256.  The link I posted previous provides more information on this.

    The browsers Google Chrome and chrome are two different browsers.  Google Chrome integrates the Flash Player.  Google incorporates no Flash Player in chrome.  Therefore, you need to install the PPAPI Flash Player plugin for chrome.

  • I just downloaded Adobe Flash Player, but the installer will not be displayed

    Shockwave Flash integrated into my Google Chrome browser kept crashing, so I decided to download a Flash Player outside of Google Chrome. I downloaded and it came to the screen that says I had to activate Flash Player by double-clicking on a file called "Adobe Flash Player installer. I used the classic interface of function (I hate windows 8.1), and nothing came. I spent an hour looking for my computer. Nothing. I have re downloaded Adobe Flash Player, and this time the installer came. I thougth it's finally over! When I tried to watch a video on Crunchyroll, my good friend Shockwave Flash has crashed again. I remembered that I had to close Chrome so that Flash start running. On Chrome closing and re-openeing an another Adobe Flash Player Installer popped up and brought me to this link, once again.


    Adobe - download Adobe Flash Player


    I don't understand what the issue is here. After my installation attempts, nothing has changed, and the shock wave continues to crash. Does anyone know if I did something wrong, need to change a setting somewhere, or any other reason/solution for this problem. Help, please!

    Hi tomc54715868,

    Flash player is bundled with google chrome and you cannot update or reinstall again outside of google chrome. To get the latest version of Flash player for chrome, you must update your google chrome. The current version is 17.0.0.169 and you can check your existing version by visiting the Flash Player Help link and click check now. And if your flash is still stuck on the last version of 17.0.0.169 in Chrome, well want to file a bug in https://bugbase.adobe.com/ with all possible details.

    The Setup file you use must be the installation of a flash drive for any other browser, but not for google chrome.

    Cannot download Adobe Flash Player om my computer with Windows 7 64 bit. Can someone help me with this problem?

    Even if you are a 64-bit machine 8 default IE should be 32-bit version.  This is the version that runs on 64-bit computers by default.  If you use this version, then the problems will disappear.  As previously reported Adobe are still working on a version of Flash for 64 - bit.

    I'm on a MAC and my password does not work, I reset my password and I can not even download Adobe Flash Player.

    This password is presented by your operating system and is designed to prevent you from accidentally installing the software.

    If it comes to your personal computer and you don't need a password to connect to the computer when it first starts, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to go to this prompt.  If it comes to your personal computer and your normal password does not work, make sure that CAPS LOCK SHIFT is off, and then type the password carefully.

    If this is your work machine and he asks an administrator password, well, you will need to have a conversation with your computer friendly.

    If you are still puzzled, you may need to reset the password on your Mac:
