MY FLASH PLAYER WONT FLASH !

Problems with Adobe Flash Player

from WinCustomize Forums

Hi Folks .. Just a quickie , hopefully ...

Last week I recently downloaded the latest version of Adobe Flash ... from here http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Followed onscreen instructions as usual , No problems you would have thought ... No such Luck ....

Ever since then , If I go to youtube,Googlevideo and other places like BBC I get this :

 "" Cannot play media.You do not have the correct version of the flash player. "" and a link to the

latest Flash Player ( above )

This has been happening for the past few days now and is really starting to annoy me ... (!)

I am on Vista Home Premium ...  with all the usual security ..Defender, avg CC ..Spybot ~ used daily ...

I am totally flummoxed with this , and it is literally driving me round the bend (metaphysically speaking , of course..!)

If anybody can steer me thru this stonewall I will be very much appreciative, and the handing out of karma points

 will be in abundance !!

( nothing to tech-y for me folks ... please ..  )

Regards ..

Mike

What version do you now have? Flash 10 can give you problems on some sites. You may need to re-install Flash 9. I posted links to the uninstaller and the flash 9 archives,but darn if I can find the thread.;P

 I have both saved on my usb drive,PM me if you need them.

Edit: Always listen to the duck! But if that doesn't work,9 may be needed.
