This Laptop is the third Computer I have purchased as a complete system, all the others (and I have seven desktops currently) I have put together myself.
I wouldn't put the Flash Player error down to the vendor, or whoever produced this machine, I think it is more likely to be due to OS issues. My XP Pro machines are all fine with it, however this Vista Home Premium edition machine is the only one I've had issues with regarding Flash. I have had my laptop (XP SP2 IE7) for 2 years and have never had a problem until this week. I kept getting an update message for the past few months saying there was an update to the flash player. I got sick of seeing it every time I booted up so I installed the update.
Now I can't use my flash player. I have tried uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling, rebooting and nothing works. After I install it is says installation complete but when I try it, I keep getting 'flash player required click here to install now.'
Anyone with any other ideas?? The UAC interferes with a number of installs. I had to disable it to install the dual core optomizer from AMD as well as install JRE from the sun java site to get that to work. As I had already done that though Flash installed just fine it seemed however, If I want to go to full screen when say watching a U Tube movie I get a double triangle (black and white) instead of the enlarged vedio app. Went to the U Tube test page and did not pass the flash test even though it does on the Flash page at Adobe.
I did some searching on Adobe's page and found a mention that their new Flash does not work well on the 64bit browser but they were working on it. They advised viewing content for Flash on a 32 bit browser but said that way it would work on the 64 bit OS. DasMuZic wrote: I have windows vista & had the same problem with my new HP.

Hi all, A couple of things I have noticed about this problem: I am runing Vista 64 on a 4 core CPU. If you don't use UAC, then it works fine (ie just turn it off.) Unfortunately, I like to have it on for security purposes. It was working fine, then stopped. My guess is a security update from MS (or even another vendor). But not sure which one. When I try to re-install (downloading the local installer), it says it installed files in C: Windows System32 Macromed Flash - however, that folder does not exist.
If I create it, then uninstall, then re-install, it still doesn't put any files there (even though the installer says it does.) There are Macromed folders created in users. AppData Roaming Macromed. But when I renamed them and re-installed, it still didn't work. There does not appear to be a way to use the RunAs option with ActiveX controls (which theoretically could get around the UAC problem.) Adobe does not have any information about this on their site other than to run SubInACL, but, from what I can find, that isn't supported with Vista 64 (although I am still looking into this.) I did try the software from Softpatch, but that didn't work for my Vista machine. The funny thing is that my Vista (32) laptop works just fine. Anyway, this doesn't answer the question of how to fix it, but someone might be able to use this to figure out what is wrong.
Take care, Fletcher. Robbie-I don't know if you're still around but today is 7-1-08 and I found your item on the Flash Player very helpful. It gave me the hope to keep going. The main thing was downloading the Uninstaller and re-installing the new Player.
I also used your idea of using all administrators but I don't know if that was a deciding factor. I have been trying for 3 days to get the Player. The hard thing is that that is no icon on the Desktop seen when you have the Player. I also prayed very hard like you said and I got it! Thanks for your help. Robbie, I hear you know what I need to do to get flash installed. I have done everything.
Used the uninstaller, reinstalled 2. Used the subinacl with reset minimum 3. Used a registry cleaner 4. Changed my security settings 5. Unloaded my Norton I don't know what to do.
I do know the installation stops with the program is trying to register the flash9f.ocx file. However the file never ends up my computer. I have tried working as the administrator still nothing installs.

/ / / / / Adobe Flash Player Release Notes This document is for users developing content for Adobe® Flash® Player 9 and addresses issues which are not discussed in the Flex 2 documentation or release notes. This document may be updated periodically as more information becomes available.
Opens to a new page Adobe Flash Player version Ensure that you have the latest version of Flash Player installed by clicking to check the version. The current version of Flash Player 9 for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux operating systems is 9.0.115.0. The current version of Flash Player 9 for Solaris operating systems is 9.0.47.0. Updated versions of the content debugger players are posted on the page. Features in Adobe Flash Player 9, Version 9.0.16.0 Flash Player 9 builds on the advances in Flash Player 8 by focusing on three main areas: creating a more robust programming model, achieving standards compliance, and delivering ground-breaking performance.
This release of Flash Player includes:. ActionScript 3.0, a significant update to the scripting language of the runtime that provides a familiar syntax and compelling new language features. ActionScript3.0 delivers up to 10 times faster performance, faster application start-up times and a reduced memory footprint. New Flash Player APIs, such as those for the display list, enable greater creative control over content and applications. The features available in Flash Player 9 are described in the Flex Builder 2 help. ActionScript 3.0 resources and documentation are also available in the.
Features that developers should be aware of include:. ActionScript 3.0 ActionScript is the powerful object-oriented programming language of the Flash Player runtime environment. ActionScript 3.0 advances the language to offer developers a robust programming model for rich internet applications. ActionScript 3.0 is compliant with the ECMAScript Edition 3 (ECMA-262) standard and is based on the ECMAScript Edition 4 (ES4) draft language specification. For a complete listing of APIs, see the.
Some highlights of the ActionScript 3.0 language include:. ECMAScript for XML (E4X) E4X enables easy manipulation of XML documents using a familiar syntax. Utilize new E4X classes XML, XMLList, QName, and Namespace to develop code to traverse, filter, and manipulate XML data more quickly and easily than was possible with previous programming techniques. Regular Expressions ActionScript 3.0 implements regular expressions, as defined in the ECMAScript Edition 3 language specification (ECMA-262). Native support for regular expressions saves coding time for string search and manipulation procedures. DOM Events APIs Based on the industry-standard Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 Events Model, ActionScript 3.0 introduces better control over event handling through standardized APIs.
Display List APIs Directly create, manipulate, and control objects on the Flash Player display list for complex application creation and control. New classes include Sprite, a lightweight building block, and Shape, for raw vector shapes. Depth management is automatic and handled by Flash Player 9, with new methods for specifying and managing the z-order of objects. New Sound APIs The new sound APIs provide greater control over imported and embedded sounds; for example, the new SoundMixer.computeSpectrum method provides the ability to get information about sounds currently playing in Flash Player.
Binary Data and Sockets Enables interoperability with existing custom protocols, and increases data transfer performance with a more compact representation of data versus XML. Runtime Exceptions & Error handling ActionScript 3.0 introduces runtime exceptions for common error conditions, improving the debugging experience and enabling development of more secure, robust applications. Performance:. Faster ActionScript Performance Flash Player 9 delivers up to 10x performance improvement for ActionScript 3.0 execution. Reduced Memory Footprint ActionScript 3.0 applications use less memory than equivalent ActionScript 2.0 applications. Fixes in Flash Player 9.0.16.0.
BitmapData and Video objects cannot be printed in vector mode. (136539).
Firefox browser will crash using the External API if JavaScript calls an ActionScript function in the onUnload handler, followed by the ActionScript function then calling another ActionScript function. This issue has been reported to Mozilla as Bugzilla Bug. (135795). Internet Explorer incorrectly directs some URL requests (HTTP post of form data) that return SWF files with no HTML wrapper to point to an incorrect location. As a result, Flash Player will prevent the content from loading - debugger players will display an error message, and Web players will fail silently. The issue has been fixed in Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2.
(134253). Firefox does not notify the Flash Player when the user creates and switches to a new tab, and Flash content continues to render on screen. Mozilla has been notified of this issue in Bugzilla Bug.
Fixes and improvements in Flash Player 9.0.20.0: Support for Intel-based Macs Flash Player 9.0.20.0 for Intel-based Macintosh computers includes all of the features from Flash Player 9.0.16.0. This release includes only bug fixes and optimizations related to the Intel-based Macintosh platform. Flash Player 9.0.20.0 is delivered as Universal Binary installer. Users of PowerPC-based Macs may continue to use the installer for Flash Player 9.0.16.0. Fixed in this version: Flash Player sound output does not work for OSX Audio MIDI sample rate settings higher than 48Khz.
Some third party applications and MIDI breakout boxes will change the systemwide Audio settings on launch and fail to return settings to default on close. To workaround this issue, go to Applications- Utilities- Audio MIDI Setup. Select Sound Output and change the properties for the 'Built-in Output' to a setting less than or equal to 48Khz.

Previously, non-integer values were not handled correctly and text would not draw as expected. (182482). When the hitTestState of a SimpleButton is the same as any of the visible states, moving the SimpleButton instance will result in screen artifacts. Workaround: use a different shape instance for the hitTestState. (172822).
When calling out to ExternalInteface for FSCommand various timer related events, such as 'enter frame,' no longer trigger. (178286). Pixel-based grid fitting does not work for Flash Player 9.0.20.0 for PowerPC or Intel-based Macintosh computers in Rosetta mode. Pixel-based grid fitting works in native mode on Intel-based Macs.

(85982). Subsequent loads of ActionScript 2.0 SWFs containing components into a parent ActionScript 3.0 SWF may cause some components to break. The components will work on the first load, but loading new, or unloading ActionScript 2.0 components of the same class may exhibit this behavior. (176101). Developers should not rely on garbage collection if immediate clean up of active objects, such as display objects, streams and media, is expected. Use the appropriate ActionScript 3.0 APIs (close, removeEvent Listener, etc.) to get immediate behavior when cleaning up active objects. The delete operator is intended to remove properties of an object, and cannot be used to remove members of a class.
For more details on the delete operator, see the. Flash Player sound input does not work for OSX Audio MIDI sample rate settings higher than 48Khz. The microphone will either record noise or nothing.

Properties like scaleX, scaleY, and rotation are not changed as the result of changes to a DisplayObject's transformation matrix (flash.geom.Transform, flash.geom.Matrix). However, changes to those properties are reflected in the matrix. If you change a property after changing the matrix, the matrix also resets to its original value. Affects ActionScript 2.0 and ActionScript 3.0.
Workaround: If using matrix transformations, avoid using scaleX, scaleY, and rotation in favor of their respective matrix transformations. Triggering stage.invalidate during a “render” event listener fails. (184574).

Congratulations Adobe Flash team on shipping the on Tuesday! This Flash update serves as a model implementation for how browser extensions can work with Protected Mode to keep users safe. As most of you already know, on Windows Vista, IE7 includes a special feature called where the IE process runs with low privileges. This helps IE significantly reduce the ability of an attack to write, alter or destroy data on the user's machine or to install malicious code. These defenses also limit legitimate actions like saving browser settings, which is why Protected Mode includes broker processes to handle IE’s elevated actions. Similarly, yesterday’s Flash update includes a broker process to handle Flash’s specific elevated actions.
Broker processes are the best way to safely handle elevated actions because they’re built to help contain an attack in the low privilege process. When developing a broker process for your extension, you should always assume that your extension is running in a compromised process. This means you should design your broker as if calls coming from your extension may be hijacked. You can safely handle hijacked calls by validating all input and by asking the user to make a trust decision in UI appropriate scenarios. For example, the IEUser.exe broker launches the Internet Options dialog when it gets a known call from Protected Mode. This prevents the Protected Mode process from silently changing the user’s browser settings such as the homepage or security slider.
Although most extensions are fully functional when running in Protected Mode’s low privilege process, some of these extensions work because Protected Mode’s compatibility layer redirects file and registry writes to a virtual store. We created the compatibility layer to get previously released extensions working. If you haven’t already done so, now is a good time to update your extensions to work with Many thanks to the Adobe team for their close partnership and hard work in getting a Windows Vista-ready Flash Player 9 out. Marc Silbey Program Manager. If protected mode is secure, it stands to reason that broker processes must be running before they’re requested, because the ability to start a process with higher privileges would be a risk, right? Does this mean that I’ll be running a bucket-load of crappy broker programs from people like Adobe (infamous for their browser-bashing PDF reader as well as the advertising medium they acquired from Macromedia) on the off chance that I need them?
Or is the protected mode mechanism akin to the setuid bit in a unix? As a normal person, I haven’t used Vista yet, so I can’t check, but the possibility that I’m being asked to pay ever increasing costs in the name of security users bothers me. Especially since I suspect the biggest problems are caused by the type of person who would install two or three copies of anything for the promise of a free ring-tone. Above all though, my problem is this: I don’t trust third parties to create broker services. Third parties suck; they distribute unsigned code, they don’t patch their bugware properly (like, everyone’s up to date with flash, right?), they invent 'creative' solutions to problems because they don’t have access to IE development expertise, etc I’m sure you’ve thought these issues through, but you really haven’t explained it very well, and the impression I get is that broker services add long-term complexity for short term gain (like ‘Zones’, for example). Regards, James.
Garyk, 'i hate flash and refuse to install it. I have no idea how somebody can go to a website and expect to read or find what they want while those annoying flash programs are running, moving things around and distracting you from reading because some video is playing.' Well, there are irritating uses of Flash (for ads, or to make background music, or without a text alternative).
But Flash can also for good, for example to distribute videos you /want/ to see, or indeed, to educate, e.g. But Flash’s potential as a serious medium for information or entertainment is deeply compromised by Adobe’s failure to make Flash content 'accessible' to assistive technologies like screen readers in any browser other than Internet Explorer. GaryK, while I see where you’re coming from – annoying ads gets me mad as well – I’d expect anyone to properly separate the technology from the usage some people give to it. You know, when Java started (97?), for me it was the equivalent of Applets. Every page had those annoying applets for fancy menus and I hated it. I navigated with applets off.
Only years later I understood what a great technology Java was. The same applies to Flash. Sure, you can say animated/rich interface websites suck. Sure, you can say videos on the web suck, it’d better to have direct links for them. Sure, you can say instant-on, online multiplayer games suck, you could have them standalone and ported to three different OS’s using other technology.
But this is like dissing HTML because it’s not like TXT; like dissing the Web because it’s not like FTP. After all, we’re just reading stuff online, so it’d be better to have it all on an FTP server, where we can browse to the dir we want, download the TXT of the content we want, and.AVI of videos we want, and even.JPG of what we want.
It would be so much greater, right? It’s the way it’s used that counts. GIFs are also used for annoying ads and that doesn’t make the technology bad. Heck, I hate popup windows and that doesn’t make me hate the browser.
The same applies to Flash. Marc, Thanks for the information – I will definitely look into that. I am glad to hear that the IEUser.exe process does include some general purpose APIs that will hopefully be enough for most controls. But I am also worried why Flash needs something more 'powerful' Let me say this: I will be happily surprised if we will not see exploits where a code injection bug in component A is used to subvert the broker process of component B to install code on the machine. A and B might not be from Microsoft, and they will be written with nothing but good intentions, but the guys looking for ways to turn our computers into zombies have considerable financial incentives and will try everything. For those that want more features than the standard IE broker can offer, I have a suggestion: ClickOnce. It’s available on every Vista machine, you can run your app with full privileges if the user agrees to and even host IE very easily if you want to interact with a specific web site.
Unlike the control-hosted-in-IE-model, a weakness in your ClickOnce application would be very hard, if not impossible, for a malicious web site to exploit. Keep up the good work! Just a quick followup: Yesterday I (half-jokingly) suggested that a popular component with a broker process implementing functions like ExecuteSystemCommand or WriteToAnyFile would defeat the purpose of Protected Mode. Now, let me quote the Type Library of the FlashBroker COM server for the newly released Flash 9 control, by our good friends at Adobe: void BrokerCreateFile( fileName, readOnly, truncateOnOpen ); void BrokerWriteFile( cookie, data ); void BrokerDeleteFile( fileName ); void BrokerLMLaunch( applicationName ); Anybody scared yet? Fduch, Seeing as that page consists of XHTML served as text/html, and there is no specification for how user agents should handle such markup save by copying the error handling of other user agents, and seeing further that it fails to even conform to the XHTML specification (31 validation errors, for example), I’d suggest you need to get those responsible to correct the markup /before/ blaming IE. Of course, it might still be slow after they fix the markup, but until that happens you don’t know whose fault it is.
'PS Still waiting on the bug tracking site' -steveweb If I read one of the previous chat transcripts correctly the bug tracker is down while they analyze the current listing to amalgamate similar bugs and prioritize critical updates. Once the planning stage is ready to begin for the next IE iteration the bug tracker will be re-enabled. Keep all found issues in a log with dates and when the bug tracker is active then submit all at once. Submiting them on the blog isn’t doing any good because they will be lost as time passes. Tony 'the bug tracker is down while they analyze the current listing to amalgamate similar bugs and prioritize critical updates.' Rival projects seem to manage to mark duplicates and prioritize bugs without taking down their bug trackers.
I grant you Connect may make even basic tasks more hassle than Bugzilla, but it wasn’t /that/ bad, surely? 'Keep all found issues in a log with dates and when the bug tracker is active then submit all at once.' Or perhaps add them to: which is backed by the Web Standards Project. Another bug Generated form controls (via DOM methods), added to.any. form, are not accessible by name! Lets create a control, (a checkbox, with the name ‘foo’) e.g. Any of the following will.FAIL.
Var val = document.formsyourIndex‘foo’.value; var val = document.formsyourIndex.elements‘foo’.value; var val = document.formsyourIndex.foo.value; var val = document.formsyourIndex.elements.foo.value; And of course, it isn’t just the value, the object just isn’t added to the form’s named array so if you want the length of an element, or details about the options of a select list, or the class/style attributes, you’re out of luck. As a horribly ugly workaround, you can iterate over the entire contents of the form, checking the name of each element against your desired name. PS This is broken in IE6 too.
Fduch, 'My only question: Why IE6 works normal/fast on that page and IE7 eats all CPU cycles?' I don’t know. Maybe Internet Explorer 6’s error handling happens to be better for that particular page than Internet Explorer 7’s error handling. I can’t see much point in debating the merits of how browsers handle individual bits of broken content.
The content itself needs to be fixed, end of story. Aedrin, Ah, /that/ wiki. When you said wiki in a previous thread I’d assumed you meant the old feedback wiki which Microsoft abandoned when Internet Explorer went onto Connect.
I’m not entirely persuaded about how 'Microsoft backed' it really is, compared even to bug reports on this blog. Why isn’t it mentioned in the support section on the main Internet Explorer site?
Still, while not by the slightest stretch of the imagination a replacement for the bug tracker, it’s better than nothing, I guess. Thanks for the link. @someone Dave Massy indicated above: That the developer toolbar is being worked on, and they are hoping for a new release in a few weeks.
I know that feedback was full of bug reports on the toolbar too, but just a recap on some of the really annoying missing/broken features. 1.) Doesn’t work on frames 2.) Goes ‘disabled’ every now and then when moving/hiding other toolbars (yes, in the most recent version) 3.) DOM Explorer is very awkward to use, is chromed in win95 controls, and you can’t scroll sideways to see all the details for attributes 4.) DOM Explorer, remove the angle brackets from the nodes, they just take up space (left tree) 5.) DOM Explorer, some nodes do not appear at all 6.) DOM Explorer, provide better confirmation when applying attribute updates, that they are successful better yet, ensure that editing.ALL. attributes is possible, e.g.
Under the covers, editing attributes better not be calling the DOM method.setAttribute or many of the calls will fail. 7.) Can’t pick n choose what CSS to disable 8.) No live CSS editing 9.) Outline color should change on nested elements (e.g. Table cells) 10.) Outline any element gets confused when you pick table, div or images (e.g. The other menu items) 11.) View Image report chokes on & and; characters in the parsing and won’t render properly. 12.) No Show Image Titles option 13.) DOM Explorer, iframe Doctype’s parsed as comments 14.) SVG Support.
@Fduch, re:review of ViewPage It is now a very welcome, permanent addition to my development tools! Live editing? Yup!, readable & helpful DOM navigation?
Yup!, frames support? Yup!, easy attribute/style editing? If I have to make any complaints, I would just ask if an 'outline' feature would be available, so that one can quickly see nested tables, etc. Otherwise, works as advertised and more! Steve ps I would also consider a revamp of the dialogs, to see if they can make use of the WindowsXP+ GUI controls (e.g.
The softer scrollbars, rounded buttons, with 3-phase highlight etc.) Its not a big issue, but it would look very slick with the newer chrome. @Fduch Sure, Outline is a feature, borrowed (i’m guessing) from the Web Developer toolbar for Firefox. It allows you to draw visual outlines (usually 1px in width) around various elements on the page.
It lets you 'see' some of the structure of the page, when viewing the rendered result. The Firefox outline tool, will let you outline any element on the page (as does the IE one), but the Firefox one, changes the color, when items are nested. If you are outlining table cells, then the first level will get a red outline, the next level in (e.g. Child cells), will get a green outline, then blue, then repeat for each additional 3 levels. Ditto for block level elements like div’s. Its a great tool, when you want to find out why one section of your page doesn’t line up, or why the padding in one area seems different than another, or why certain floats don’t appear to be working as designed. Here’s a screenshot, of Digg, with Block level outlines turned on steve.
