Flash Player 11 Download Time Out???

Mein System ist Windows XP 32-bit. Von gestern auf heute konnte ich weder online Filme ansehen noch Facebookspiele spielen. Ich habe herausgefunden das es daran liegt, dass meine Flash Player Version zu alt war. Also habe ich die alte deinstalliert und mir die 11er runtergeladen. Allein die Rar Datei runter zu laden hat mich schon 1 Std gekostet. Das entpacken plus starten der Installation dann nurnoch ein paar Sekunden. Der Download hat wunderbar geklappt, bis er 12% erreicht hat. Dann passierte eine Weile nichts mehr und dann wurde angezeigt "Download Timeout" Als einzige möglichkeit wurde mir angeboten die Installation abzubrechen. Was ich auch gemacht habe. Die Rar Datei war gelöscht. Seit dem habe ich es ettliche male versucht, auch von anderen Seiten als der Adobe Seite aber bis jetzt nur mit dem Erfolg das es varriert ob bei 12, 14 oder 15% diese Meldung erscheint. Mein PC ist seit dem auch extrem langsam geworden. Kann mir jemand helfen? P.S. Komme aus Deutschland falls das von nöten sein sollte LOL

Danke!!

Turn off all antivirus before installing! this fixed it for me on both IE9 and Firefox11

Had to sign in to say thanks ina way:

save all your work pass words etc...

1. Internet options, Locate advance tab.  at the very bottom it tells you reset IE9  that is what got my flash player working.

Holy cow what a  headache it was. to follow such detail.   Never saying it was wrong.

Adobe thank you

So it was not Flash Player that was the problem but somehow a setting was messed up on Internet Explorer which broke the Internet Explorer.

I am having the same problem using Windows 7 64 bit.  The installer seems to download properly, however when I try to run it, it times out at 12% and Adobe is unsuccessfully installed.  I have removed all older versions of Adobe, restarted my computer, disabled all firewalls and protections....  I have tried everything I can think of or have read to try.  Anybody have any luck.  Soooo frustrating.  I wish I had never tried to upgrade.

I uninstalled yet again and tried reinstalling using the link you provided .

The installer downloaded successfully.  It then retrieved succussfully.  then the installer tried installing and stopped at 12%.

Then it gave me the time out error....

And finally the unsuccessful installation message.

I have made sure Active X is not checked in tools, I have made sure all settings in Internet Option are set as Adobe said (in regards to scripting, etc both in Trusted Zones and Internet Options), and Windows Firewalls, etc were all turned off. 

I have tried this about 30 times now over the ast 4 nights and would appreciate anybody letting me know if they have a solution.

Thank you

Exactly the same problem here.   Can't get Flash 11 downloaded without running into the Download Timeout issue.  Have tried all suggestions to no avail.

Using Windows 7 64 bit.

Any other ideas out there?

Thanks

I'm having the same issues. I'm using windows 7, 32 bit.

I did follow fpMonster instructions, but I still encounter the issue.

I'm not able to view any video in Facebook that are using flash player.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I'm not too clear, are you having issue with downloading the installer or running the installer?

Can you please show us the link where you download the Flash Player from?

Try to uninstall the player again using this link: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html

Then use this link to download the player: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
