Question

CNN com does not play the video, just the commercial

I had this problem with the last version of flash in Firfox.  I installed a older version of flash and it works fine.  The commercial plays to the end and then just stops.  Normaly it proceeds to the video news reel then the next commercail and so on.  11.2 does not have this problem.  How do I get 11.2 version when the install deletes the version even if the install fails.

    Is there anyone who knows why Fash player on CNN.com does not continue to play the video after the commerical ends and does not exit the commercial it just sits there. I am unable to do anything except refresh the screen which repeats the comercial on CNN.com.  This is on a Win 7 64 machine completely up to date.  As I mentioned before, Installing a previous version of Flash works fine.  I need a answer from Adoby techical personel only.  If anyone anyone else has this problem please hold for a techincal answer to this.

    Flash Player Uninstaller

    Flash Player 11.2.202.335 <---That's a zip file of ALL 11.2.202.335 versions. You'll need to use the one for (other browsers) Windows.

    Note: Since CNN updates their code often, you'll be bombarded with "You need the latest Flash Player" notices when using a version as old as 11.2

    Thank You for the reply.  However, if you have something to say it would be nice if you would answer the questions.  Why does Flash player do this, IE not play in CNN and why does an older version work.  I do not get messages saying I need to upgrade either after installing 11.x. I figured out the last question of how to get 11.x.  This is all happening on the version 12 just released this year.

    1. I don't run Adobe.

    2. I don't make Flash Player.

    3. I don't run CNN.

    Unless my understanding of English grammar is totally off... you asked ONE (1) question, and you didn't even punctuate it properly:

    How do I get 11.2 version when the install deletes the version even if the install fails. (needs a "?")

    I DID answer that question with two links. An UNINSTALLER to get rid of the current version, and a link to download and install the ONE YOU SPECIFICALLY ASKED FOR.
