i've read thru many of the repetitious posts, most not
identifying what the detailed "symptons" were/are. in my case, the
shockwave full 11 completed the install, after the download.
firefox shewed the plugin. adobe test site said 'download and
install'. revo uninstaller shewed it installed. asked revo the
install location, gets error message - not found in system32. he
said, she said.
after a few late hours investigating, i searched my c:\ drive
and found shockwave fully installed in
c:\windows\syswow64\adobe\shockwave 11. i had read elsewhere about
firefox\plugins needing a certain file - np32dsw.dll. turns out
plugins already have that file, which explains firefox addons.
so i thought, can't hurt, i copied a handful of the dll files
in shockwave 11 folder to the firefox\plugins folder - not the
system32 folder. closed all windows associated with firefox.
restarted firefox, flitted over to the adobe test site, and voila,
mission accomplished.
strangely, the missyhiggins.com site has only one message for
me: download flash player 10. i've passed the adobe test site. the
thirty other musician sites seem to function quite well with their
offerings.
i hope i've helped one person and another will help me or
missy resolve the flash mystery.
