cannot install Adobe flash on FF, but could and did use it on Explorer.
I have installed Adobe flash through Explorer and can play games on FB. I prefer to use Firefox, but when I try to play games it says I need to install Adobe Flash player. So I unstalled the flash player and tried to install through FF. It gets halfway installed and then keeps saying re-entry. Very frustrating. I am ready to just use Explorer! I reinstalled the flash player through Exp and I can play games there, but still get the same message as above when trying to play on FF!!!!!

Download the flashplayer from http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer.html then close Firefox and disable your Anti-Virus application and try again to install it.

There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
- an ActiveX version for IE only
- a Plugin version for most other browsers including Firefox
- On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
You do not appear to have the Plugin version for Firefox installed. If you did, in Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash (version)". If "Shockwave Flash" is there and is disabled, click the "Enable" button.
Check your Plugins often --> http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
- only the most popular/used Plugins are known by this page
- page will detect only installed, enabled Plugins
Install or update Adobe Flash
- Using Firefox, go to the following link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later. Un-check any items on that page that you do not want to download (i.e., "McAfee Security Scan Plus"):
- When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit OR Firefox button > Exit)
- Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
- In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
- The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
- The installation is quick.
- Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
- To update/install the ActiveX version for IE only, repeat the process, but use IE to go to the above website.
