I don't understand how this Forum works

I have a question getting the proper version of Flash Player for my computer.  So I went to the Flash Player forum and typed my question into the question box. 

But all I received was a notice saying that no similar questions were found (or something to that effect).  In other words, it did not let me ask my question to the Adobe FP community--it just did a run of the keywords in previous posts.

I need to ask my question to the Adobe community and have just spent half hour going around in circles.  Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

    Since you are able to ask a question here, by clicking the START A DISCUSSION link at the upper right of the main page, that means you only need to find the same/similar link on any forum page

    It is confusing at the beginning. I am new as well and it was difficult to find what I need - I had a problem with the pdfs. I guess that it is just a matter of time, until all new users get used to the platform. I think these forums are very helpful! Thanks

    Thanks, John.  After a lot of searching, I finally found that link.  Why did they hide it so well?

    Because they want very few people to use their forums so that answering the questions becomes as easy as possible.  This then leads to the belief that Adobe products are the easiest to use because few people have questions to ask.

    I am amazed you managed to find a way to post your question so perhaps these forums are not for you because you can manage without them.
