What if any applications are you using to uninstall the programs on your computer, say like Revo for instance?

Thanks..

Your first approach to this problem was given to you in post 2 by zep516.
Uninstall using the first link, reinstall using the information regarding difficulties in doing so in the second link.

The next thing we need to know is
Make and model of computer if branded.
Operating system please - full details of edition and 32 bit or 64 bit.

When you try and access a resource that uses Flash Player what is the message that your receive and does the install of Flash Player apparently run smoothly and is it shown as installed in your list of installed programs.

Hi,
I tried all the steps in those two links and it still doesnt work.
When I try to access the site i want it says..."In order to create or view Calendar, you need a newer version of the Flash Player".

My computer is an emachines EME443 Notebook Series. Windows 7, 64 bit with an AMD E-350 Processor 1.60 GHz
When I download Flash player it says it successfully installed and it exists in my programs list. So I dont know whats going on?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, that did not work either. It all just did the same thing as before..

[turnorburn]

And your browser or browsers? are you closing your browsers and any open programs when installing flash?

Thanks..

the link was already sent to you on post 2.by Zep516

Are you following carefully the instructions for ensuring that the applications listed are not running.
If you do not the uninstaller will not work.

After running that, run the test here

• Open the About Adobe Flash Player page to verify that you have uninstalled Flash Player. If you see an information box similar to the one below, Flash Player was not uninstalled:

to ensure that it was uninstalled

Then go to the link here

and read the items from 1 onwards. headed
1. Determine if you are using a 32-bit version of Internet Explorer on a 64-bit version of Windows

some of what follows is now not applicable as hopefully you have uininstalled on the previous link
Pay particular attention to 4, 6 and 6 and the advanced troubleshooting.

ONLY whilst downloading and installing, both the uninstaller and then the Flash Player, disable your anti-virus.
DO NOT forget to re-enable.

If you are using Firefox, and IE check carefully the instructions for Firefox.

Hi,
Well i read the required specifications and it says I need •2.33GHz or faster x86-compatible processor, or Intel® Atom™ 1.6GHz or faster processor for netbooks.
I have an eMachines eME443 computer that uses an AMD E-350 Processor 1.6GHz
Does this mean I have to install Flash player 9?
Also how exactly would i do that? I tried downloading one from the flash player archives, but i didnt know which was the right one.

Thanks
