Adobe Flash Player

[staffietyse 10]

Hi everyone,

 

I have been trying to download Adobe Flash Player on my Daughters laptop so she can watch videos on you tube. It seems to download but when I go back on to You Tube it won,t player Videos and asks me to download Adobe Flash Player.

 

I have repeated this process on numerous occassions but to no avail.

 

I just wondered if anyone has any suggestions on how I download it successfully?

 

Many thanks,

 

Paul

Oh sorry, if it helps, the operating system is Vista!

What web browser are you using?

firefox browser,sorry not for me

Flash 11 is broken in firefox.

 

Downgrade back to 10 and it will work. I had the exact same problem!

Alternatively try Google Chrome as an internet browser, personally I much prefer it - it has Flash Player built in and updates everything itself.

That's strange - FF has just updated this morning on my laptop to 16.0.2 and Flash is working fine. I would start again - uninstall the Flash using Revo Uninstaller to make sure it's thoroughly gone, clear the temp files using CCleaner, reboot then reinstall from Adobe. I now it's a lot of work, but a fresh start is sometimes the best thing.

Thank you to everyone. I have downloaded Google Chrome as my web browser and it seems to work, albiet it appears to be buffering whilst viewing videos on You Tube.

 

Thank you once again!
