Graham Nash Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Right, I am sure some of you youngsters will know exactly how to help me I have somehow lost my Adobe Flash player on my laptop. At first it had gone from my Google Chrome browser but was ok on Internet Expolrer 9. But as I generally use Chrome as my default browser I wanted it on there and every time I tried to download it I would get a banner saying "only one is allowed" or something like that. So .... I went into my computer settings and un-installed Adobe, Flash and everything to do with it and tried downloading it all again but i still get the same Ive reset the thing so it saves cookies etc but it's still messing me about Its now gone from Internet Explorer too!!! This is preventing me from seeing any videos, lots of pictures and is generally getting me close to picking up a hammer Any of you smart youngsters (or even smarter oldies) know what im doing wrong??

Rob Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Go to http://chrome:plugins and make sure flash is enabled. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Other reason could be that you are using the 64bit version of Internet Explorer, If you select the windows button -> All Programs and you will possibly see 2 internet explorers. Select the one whihc is not 64 bit and flash should work, ( It doesnt in 64Bit IE - or at least didn't last time I looked as there was not 64bit plugin ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Martin Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I am running 64bit and have no problems viewing vids or pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I see they have moved on. It used to be the case that there was no flash player available for 64bit Internet Explorer ( as opposed to 32 bit IE running on 64 bit windows ). However there is now. http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-64-bit-operating.html#main_Install_Flash_Player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 many thanks everyone. It would seem that I had disabled ALL of my "plugins"????? I ticked "enable" to everything and i am now able to watch videos again :-) Paul D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
