Not able to download/install flash player?
817435
I had this problem for months and was recently able to address the problem with the help of an adobe forum entry.  Please try this and let me know how it goes.  You may need a geek friend to assist.  It's technical, but it's not that hard to do.\n\nFor the past 2 day's I have tried just about every solution posted in this forum. I believe I have found a solution that just might work for a large percentage of the viewers. I can't remember whose instructions these were. I copied and pasted and then proceeded as instructed. \n\nStep 1. \nUsing the SubInAcL tool from Microsoft to fix permission issues in the registry has solved installation errors for several products including Flash Player.\nThe following solution involves the Windows System Registry. Editing or manipulating the registry incorrectly can result in serious system damage which may require reinstallation of the operating system. If you are not comfortable editing the registry, then take your system to a professional. If you choose to proceed, then it is essential that you create a complete system backup and a Windows System Restore Point before proceeding. Adobe Systems cannot be held responsible for damage resulting from this information.\n\nYou must have administrator privileges to successfully complete these instructions. \n1. Follow the instructions to download and install the subinacl tool from Microsoft here. \n2. Use a text editor to create a file and name it reset.cmd. Save the reset.cmd in C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Windows Resource Kits&#92;Tools folder. \n3. Copy and paste the following content into the reset.cmd file. Then save and close the file.\n\nsubinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=administrators=f\nsubinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=administrators=f\nsubinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=administrators=f\nsubinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=administrators=f\n\nsubinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE /grant=system=f\nsubinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CURRENT_USER /grant=system=f\nsubinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT /grant=system=f\nsubinacl /subdirectories %SystemDrive% /grant=system=f\n4. Open the command window to run the reset.cmd script. Select Start, Run, and type in "cmd". \n5. In the command windows type in "cd C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Windows Resource Kits&#92;Tools" and select Enter. \n6. Type in "reset.cmd" and select Enter. This will run the SubInACL tool. \n7. After a few minutes processing subinacl, the permissions will be reset. \n8. Install the Flash Player from here: http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer \n9. Test the Flash Player here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome \n\n\nNext: STEP 2.\nI took GOLLUX's advice and went to Q313222 from Microsoft and followed this instruction:\n\nTo reset your operating system back to original installation default security settings: 1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then press ENTER. \n2. Type secedit /configure /cfg %windir%&#92;repair&#92;secsetup.inf /db secsetup.sdb /verbose, and then press ENTER. You receive a "Task is completed" message, and a warning message that something could not be done. You can safely ignore this message. For more information about this message, view the %windir%&#92;Security&#92;Logs&#92;Scesrv.log file. \n\nThanks Gollux & to whoever posted instructions for the Windows Resource Tool.\nProblem solved! \n\nmxmom493

Get it from www.adobe.com and goto downloads.\nThey now provide flash and so this is the safest and only official download site.

If you have installed `flash player' and are still facing problems.. i'd suggest that you download and install another browser and retry.. you can try Firefox or Opera

The Flash Player is a small(ish) program that allows animated pictures to be displayed on web pages. It is even being used to show movie trailers on some sites. It is easily downloaded by visiting Adobe's website (they just bought Macromedia who wrote Flash Player) click on this link and it will take you staight there! http://www.macromedia.com \n\nFinally, if you are using Windows 98 the latest flash player does not work, it will still install a Flash Player but you won't see all websites correctly. - the times they are a changin'

Assuming Ubuntu linux:\n\nI downloaded this http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/...\n\nNow do these commands from the command line or Terminal:\n\ncd /home/YOURUSERNAME/Desktop (or wherever the file downloaded to)\n\ngunzip FP9_plugin_beta_101806.tar.gz\n\ntar -xvf FP9_plugin_beta_101806.tar\n\ncd flash-player-plugin-9.0.21.55\n\nsudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/\n\nthen close Firefox, wait about 15-seconds, then restart Firefox. This all worked for me.

Are you getting an error message? and are you using a legal OS on your computer? That might be one of the reasons why you can't download it.

When you open the Webpage which requires Macromedia Flash Player you receive this error message. And I hope you normally open Yahoo site more you receive this error message. And this is not a error just recently the Macromedia Flash Player Version 8 is realsed and it is trying to install it.\n\nDownload and install then it will never ask you again, here is the link from where you can download it:\n\nMacromedia Flash Player Download Center Windows\n\nhttp://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

There are 2 solutions.  Flash has been turned off by a Microsoft update.  My original solution, which worked really well, is to download Opera, and install Flash.  There is now another solution on the Adobe website.  There are not Adobe and Macromedia Flash players by the way.  Adobe absorbed Macromedia, so you get the Macromedia player from Adobe.  Read the following to uninstall Flash from IE (also Opera at the same time if you have it on your system).\nhttp://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157\nRun the uninstall programme.\nThen go here, download and re-install.\nhttp://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash\nIt works.

Are you trying to tell us you have a a problem that the flash cannot show properly when you load the website in your win xp? If the answer is yes then go this website http://www.miniclip.com/requirements.htm and download all the plugins. This should do the trick.\n\nIf you mean you want to download the flash game itself, then you have to download first the software "Flash Favorite" to be able to download a flash content on a website. Here's the link http://www.pipisoft.com \n\nGood Luck!
