Solved: You tube videos not workiing, flash player not working

Hi

I can not get adobe's flash player to work. I have tried to download it from their website but it just will not work. You tube videos do not work, neither does cnets flash system. Can an expert please help me sort out the problem.

Thanks

 

Also, I have tried the troubleshooting on adobes site but nothing has worked. I have turned on the prompts for when a downloads starts. I have turned on flash JavaScripting in the internet options menu, but nothing is working.

 

Hello try this
http://sdc.shockwave.com/shockwave/download/alternates/
download uninstallers from the link

use them both

then reinstall flash and shockwave players please

 

Hi

I have uninstalled both flash and shockwave and then reinstalled both, I rebooted my computer and it is still not working.

This is the message from youtube: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.

From cnet.co.uk: Loading carousel ... you will need Macromedia Flash Player 8 to view this content! Download Here!

Thank you for the help

 

I have had this happen so many times and for no reason

Try and reset all your internet options back to default

There might be problems loading the Java Applet in your browser.

 

What browser are you using

 

Ie 7

 

Have you tried with another browser ??

 

No I have not. I do not want to use another browser, I would like to fix IE so that it works with youtube and other flash based sites.

 

Go to add remove programs and see what version java you have installed please

 

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6 Update 1, I removed some older versions of java, this is all that is left.
