When I go to a site like www,vevo,com I am asked to install Adobe Flash player. I install per directions, it shows on the page as having been installed, yet I cannot get videos (specifically on vevo site) to work. Everytime I open vevo, it still asks to install latest version of flash player and I can't play videos. I am running Windows 7 64-bit OS. Further, the instructions say to download the 32-bit Firefox in order for the Adobe FP to work, but this site says that Firefox comes ONLY in 32-bit. Any ideas how I can get this to work? I can view youtube, and other videos. Currently, the vevo site is the only video I can't see - that I know of.

Maybe you need to update Flash to a more recent 10.1 r82 version

Your plugins list shows outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

  • Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45

Update the Flash plugin to the latest version.

thank you - I thought I did just update (just before I posted the question) but I will try again.
