Hello: I just decided to upgrade Adobe flash player to 901240 by uninstalling the old version via adobe uninstaller!
Everything seemed to install great. In the add/remove programs, I now have the Adobe Flash player Active X 9.0.124.0 and the Adobe Flash Player Plugin 9.0.124.0
My problem is I go to "You Tube" and it states >>> Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player here.
I do not have Java Script turned off and I do have the latest Adobe Flash player installed.
I am using Internet Explorer 7 and firefox browsers, any suggestions please, Thanks

PS: It worked fine before the upgrade

actually the hammer techniique sounds great, but i wouldnt smash your computer. mentally smash the new flash player with it. between me and my 5 closest friiends we all have the same problem and it didnt happen until we downloaded the new flash player. i cant imagine how many other are in the same shape because of your bug. after downloading the flash player removal tool i reverted back to my older flash player after deleting everything else but now it is acting disfunctional.

you are obligated to find a solution.
i suggest, get after it.
im tired of rebooting because my laptop freezes up.
never had a problem with it until ........

Like ulost, I've tried just about everything I can find on this board. From that which Darren just mentioned, to reinstalling the upgrade several times. I've even tried installing an older version to see if it will work. Then upgraded from it's interface when prompted. On sites that use flash content, the location on the page is plain as the white background I use. I can right click in that area and it shows a button bar on which the only working link is "About Adobe Flash Player 9..." If I click this link it just takes me to the dowload site for flash player. Which by the way doesn't work either. If I click "Agree and Install Now" I just start a eternal loop that keeps bringing me back to that same page. I'm sick of this program not working since I made the mistake of trying to upgrade it to 9.0.115. I thought that 9.0.124 would fix everything. It hasn't.

Scroll way down to Scripting

To enable or disable JavaScript, follow these steps:

1. From the Tools menu, choose Internet Options... .

2. Click the Security tab.

3. Click Custom Level... .

4. Scroll to the "Scripting" section of the list. Click Disable or Enable.

5. Close and restart your browser.
Hope this helps, let me know ok?

Didn't work! when I go to the security tab, and click custom level, there is no Scripting section in the list -- only Permission with manifest and hi safety is checked and something config not signed which is engaged, and another about the same which is engaged. I cannog get Adobe Flash to work with hgtvpro.com contest link or several other sites that use Adobe Flash --- Anyone got any ideas?

Please try the following. If you have questions or get stuck, send me a 'private message' with your full name and contact info.

The number one reason that the ActiveX installer fails to install on IE are due to incorrect permissions in the system registry. We have solved hundreds of these Windows system permissions with Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.

Note: This is strictly for Windows IE, these issues do not occur on other browsers such as Firefox.

www.firefox.com

To fix these Windows system registry permission conflicts you can use Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.

Warning: The following solution involves the Windows System Registry. Editing or manipulating the registry incorrectly can result in serious system damage which may require re-installation of the operating system. If you are not comfortable editing the registry, then take your system to a professional. If you choose to proceed, then it is essential that you create a complete system backup and a Windows System Restore Point before proceeding.

Please download Microsoft’s tool to your desktop.

http://www.supportflash.com/reset_min.zip

1. Login as the User that has the incorrect permissions in the system registry

2. unzip the “reset_minimal.cmd” and the “subinacl.exe” to the desktop

*** Make sure both files are on the desktop

3. Close out all applications

4. Run the “reset.cmd” file

5. It will open a DOS like terminal and start running through registry keys

6. When it is finished it will say “press any key to continue”

7. At this point you can download the latest Flash Player from here:

In my case it is Solved. What happen was I use IE7 and Firefox with IE7 and in firefox the Java Script was turned off and that affected my regular IE7 too, I simply turned it back on and now everything is ok, Dont know about your situation, but check out to see if your Java Script is turned on.

I am only running IE 7, how do I turn Java Script on? Under tools, Internet Options, Advanced, I find no mention of JAVA, just script debugging. Can you explain it to me. Thanks

I have tried everthing at least twice. I am ready now to get my 4 lb hammer to force feed my computer flashplayer.
Logically, The registry would be the first item to fix. I did this both with the subalc with reset_minimal.zip. Had problems with both but finally got them in the same directory and ran them, watched the cmd screen run the prgm. Nothing worked. So I manually did the registry, hit the flash9util as admn still nothing.
