Trouble with Adobe

Jun 6, 2011 7:13AM PDT

Hi, I have a Windows 7 OS with IE9 and can't download Adobe 10.3 Flash Player. When i go to certain sites it says I must have the 10.3 and provides a download to click on but nothing happens.

I couldn't figure how to edit my post, but I failed to mention I am using the IE 32 bit. I know it won't work with the 64 bit yet. If I have posted in the wrong place please let me know.

Why do you write that?

I found my problems. I did not have the browswer add-ons that I needed. It's good to know it'll now work on 64 bit!

Thanks again Bob,

Tony

Adobe flashplayer and IE9
Jun 12, 2011 2:12AM PDT

I too am having problems with IE and flashplayer. I'm running win7 32bit.

I try and open a video in IE9 and get a message that flashplayer isn't installed. I run through the setup and get a message that it has installed. When I try and run a video again same problem.

I have tried the suggested settings changes in IE, ran the uninstaller program from Adobe and then re-installed the flashplayer but still I cannot run videos (in Firefox they run OK). Is there a way around this?
