I have the same problem.  I get the message "Failed to initialize"  The progress bar stops at 50%.

I need an answer to this problem quickly.  I've tried downloading the Adobe Flash Player several times.  I done it with my antivirus program disabled and Windows Firewall turned off.

Please help.

Hi Floyd,

What operating system are you using?  Here's links to our stand alone installers that should work for you.

Windows - http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#main-pars_hea...

Mac 10.6+ - http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.5.502.146/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

Thanks,

Chris

How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?
