Hi Winchester

You guys are so helpful!

I rarely use Internet Explorer becasue it is IE6.  My OS is not compatible with the new version IE8.  I use the current version of Mozilla Firefox 3.5

I just went on IE6 browser to see if I could view YouTube or WildEarth but I was told I needed to download the latest version of Flash for IE.  I tried to do that but I got a security warning box that said something like my security settings won't allow a script in ActiveX because it wasn't safe.  Oh boy - I am pretty sure that is what it said - I can't believe I can't retain the message as I just did it a few minutes ago. LOL

Where do I go to get a safe download of IE7 - I am sure it is probably better than IE6

Thank you again for all your help.

Hi Winchester

I only use Firefox as my browser so this is where I have been having the problems.

Cherryfizz,

I agree with my esteemed colleague winchester73, the first step that we should try is a complete uninstall of Flash followed by a re-install of the appropriate version.

Firstly, please go to the following link, carefully read the instructions (print them out if necessary) and download the uninstaller for Windows:

http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html

If there is anything that you do not understand in the instructions on that page please seek advice here before proceeding. Once you are happy please follow the Adobe instructions to remove the application. When the process is complete reboot the machine, even if you are not prompted to do so.

Now we will get the correct version for Firefox. Go to the following link

http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

In step 1 use the drop down box to select the "Windows Vista/XP/2003/2000" version and click "Continue"

In step 2 select the second option "Flash Player 10 for Windows". You will see that under the entry "System Requirements" the browser entry changes to  "Firefox/Safari/Opera"

Click on "Agree and install now". When all is complete try viewing a Youtube video and let us know what happens.

Thanks guys!

Winchester, I went to the first site you mentioned

I have Player Version WIN10,0,22,87
Debug Player  NO
Operating System - Windows 2000
Video Capable - Yes
Audio Capable - Yes
Local File 1/0 Enabled - Yes

The site also stated: The SWF movie below displays the specific version of Adobe Flash currently installed and active for your browers.  (I didn't see a movie or animation)

2nd site

Said I needed to download a Plug In which I tried to do. It then said "no suitable plug in found" Manually Install.  I tried to do that - The site then asked what Installer Type Select Slim or Full (I didn't know which one to pick)

3rd site

Saw/heard movie-animation  After movie stated Flash On

4th Site - Maps
I saw my house, I think I even saw the black spot of my dog on the steps of my porch.

I thought I would wait to see what you advise after you see these results.  Also should I be on the User Administrator Log in or my own User Log In-the one I use the most.

I will check in again later today.  You both are very helpful!

Anne

It appears to work sometimes, and not others ... I'd suggest uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling with the link ETR provided.  Reboot once more, and give it a try at the same sites.

See if this helps explain the "rights":  http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/instructions/

Hello Corrine

I just checked again and that is where the file left off.  There wasn't anything after.  Just to make sure I went to the right place. I looked under File-Open File-Local Disk C-Rsit-info

I will check in again later, I stayed up most of the night and it is almost dawn. I guess I should get a few hours of sleep.
