Flash Player for Adobe Reader and Acrobat

[RiceKing780]

Hello folks,

We are seeing more Adobe Portfolio documents but lately our users are unable to view them with Reader / Acrobat XI.

I applied to distribute the Flash installer using this page:

http://www.adobe.com/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html

I get a confirmation email but this leads me to another page with only Flash browser plugins.

Where can I get a .MSI?  How do we deploy the FULL Flash Player in an enterprise?

Thanks

When they grant the license, I've been told that they provide links for MSI downloads. Not being an Adobe employee or distributor, I've never seen it personally.

They didn't send you the distribution link?  Here it is: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

Yeah!  That is the same link Adobe emailed me.  I only see useless Flash browser pluggins or maybe I am blind? 

Adobe's help page says my Flash Active X isn't good enough (we are a Chrome shop anyhow) and since I'm a LAN admin, I need apply for the liecense to get the .msi (which I did).   It is possible their help page is wrong or I am missing something?

Thanks

But the MSI installer for the plugin is on that page; in the row that says 'Windows, Plugin-based browsers'.  This is the plugin that is used by Acrobat XI and Adobe Reader XI.

P.S. yes, that sentence regarding "full Flash Player" on that help page is a bit misleading; it is the plugin version that must be installed in addition to the ActiveX version.

Ha!  Yes, that works!  I didn't realise Adobe Reader was a browser!

[pwillener]

Not a browser, of course, but an application that uses plugins.  But I realize that a lot of wording in Adobe documents causes confusion.

tried all this and I still get the same error in acrobat.
