flash player will not install on windows 7 64 bit. Adobe Download Manager hangs. so I go to the support page, and download the whole installer, it then installs 32 bit version on my 64bit machine, and it does not work. firefox shows 32bit version and asks me to install new plug in

Hi,
Flash Player installer is a universal installer and installs both 32- and 64-bit versions on a 64-bit OS. If the offline installer completed without errors, it's most likely installed correctly. To know for sure I'd need to look at the installation log file.
First, ensure Flash Player is enabled in Firefox: see Enable Flash Player for Firefox
If it's enabled and Firefox still does not detect Flash Player is installed, upload the FlashInstall.log file saved at C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash AND C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash to cloud.acrobat.com using the instructions at How to share a document or some other file sharing service of your choice, that does not require a log in to access. Post the link to the uploaded files in your reply.
Thank you.

Hi,
I'm not seeing any errors in the log file. Are you using the 64-bit Firefox version? You can confirm by launching Firefox and then going to Task Manager. If the firefox.exe process has *32 next to it then it's 32-bit, if not it's 64-bit. Note that the Flash Player (32-bit) item in Control Panel (Control Panel\All Control Panel Items> Flash Player (32-bit)) is just the Flash Player Settings Manager, it is not the plugin itself.
