Same here. Vista/IE9. Keep trying to open email attachments needing Flash only to be told I need to load it. I uninstall it (which is the current version), and then download the lastest from the Adobe site. Adobe window says Flash installed and playing. I then reopen IE9 and the email. Clicking on the the attachment again brings up the note that Flash is not installed, and that I need to install it. Have gone through this process Multiple times, including disabling virus sw during the download and install. This is true of multiple emails w/attachments needing Flash.
Any advice, any one?
Alternate installer download from the FAQ: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
ok, finally got this to work.. (why does it default to installing google toolbar??? I hate it when you download something and it surreptitiously downloads something else
THEY NEED TO TURN THIS OFF... if I want google toolbar I know where to get it.. thank you very much...
(I stopped installation in the middle when I realized, downloaded again... this is LOUSY USABILITY, to install sutff in people's machines they haven't asked for... ( you don't always realize at first that option is turned on -- and that's precisely what they count on -- is google paying Adobe for this????)
Derzoom,
Flash Player is available for Windows Vista 32 bit.
PFB the link which has the system requirements for the latest version of Flash Player:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html
Also, you can use http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/download/ to get directly to the download page.
Yes it works on Vista 64 bit as well. The requirements mentioned in the above link are the minimum required specifications. Please try the above steps.
In case it still doesnt work, provide us with the following details:
1. Exact error message or result after you click on the download button.
2. Current version of Flash Player installed on your system. (Click on this link to find that out http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/)
This is the default message I get when I attempt to view a WMV file. "You
need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video." I did verify
that I have version 11.1.102.55 installed on my Vista 64 machine. Please
accept my thanks for trying to help me with this issue, it is making me
crazy in that I can not view any file requiring Flash. In that I have what
I think is a better anti virus program installed on my machine this problem
did not start until after I uninstalled a Mcafee anti virus program last
week. This is probably why I am having this Flash problem. I prefer not to
reinstall Mcafee unless it is necessary to get Flash once again.
Thanks
A comment - not a response to Derzoom of Gat Willener(?). I have Vista Premium 32, all of the right files in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash, and tried all of the Adobe help threads I can find. Also tried online and offline standalone installs. Tried going back to IE8 and installing Flash Player, then reinstalled IE9. Always got the same "You need to install Adobe Flash Player." On a tip, I finally created a new Windows user, and that did it. I have no idea why it worked. Now I can view all videos, including Youtube.
Thanks for the help.
I'm having this same problem, and the page you gave a link to has this message near the top:
Note:Flash Player does not support 64-bit versions of Windows XP and Vista. Flash Player 11 now includes support for Windows 7 64-bit
So, what do I do?
The file in my Flash folder is FlashUtil64_11_1_102_ActiveX
I can't watch any videos in Explorer!

OPERATING SYSTEM IS, 32 BIT EDITION, ON INTERNET EXPLORER, WANT ADOBE FLASH PLAYER FOR TO SEE VIDEOS
32 bit edition of what exactly? Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000?
Also, which edition of Internet Explorer? Is it 6, 7, 8 or what?
Do you have Flash installed at all at the moment? If so which version? Go to: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
if you don't have it, or even if you do, what happens exactly when you attempt to install it or update it?
Vista, 64 bit laptop with Google Chrome, Windows Mail and Internet Explorer 8.
I had originally said Vista, but a check of my IE properties showed 8. (Yes, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing) Somewhere along the line I must have replaced Vista with IE 8.
I do not have Flash installed now since I have repeatedly installed and uninstalled it to update it. Every time I bring up a YouTube window, it is black with the message that I must upgrade to see a video. I do that, it installs it and says I'm now running Adobe Flash but still the same black screen comes up with the same "must upgrade" message.
I did this repeatedly all day yesterday because I need to access YouTube on a regular basis.
Does this help us?
Bill
Can you see this test video? http://www.youtube.com/swf_test.html
Flash Player for Internet Explorer
Is this the installation file that you have tried?
It's OK.
But some sites don't upgrade their Flash players - because as commercial enterprises, they have to pay for a license - which is why you're seeing that message. If you go to this site, you'll see a message shown in the screenshot: http://www.froedtert.com/FlashNotFound.aspx
The only thing you can do in this situation is to contact the site's webmaster and inform them that technology has moved on and that they should upgrade their site to work with the latest version of Flash.

Adobe earns commission from McAfee if you install their app. That's the only reason it's there. It doesn't scan the file you're downloading.
Can you please do the following.
N.B. If after you successfully install Flash on IE and want to proceed with the installation on another browser, do not run the uninstaller again. If you do, it will uninstall it from IE as well and you'll be back where you started.
Hi I cant download the flash player and I dont think its because of any of the common reasons the others here seem to have.
I had version 10 and uninstalled it in the hope to get the new version, and as I expected it cant be downloaded and now Im left without none. The download starts, then it stops afer a few minutes adn a message pops up saying ''an error occured while downloading this file'' .
I use internet explorer and I dont seem to have any problems with Java. I mean I enabled it on the settings of the internet options. I uninstalled my antivirus a few weeks back in ordr to download something, so that can't be the problem either.
Please help.
Try downloading the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-pr oblems-flash-player-windows.html#main-pars_header and save it to disk, then close all browser windows and run the downloaded installer.
