flash (macromedia):
Can anyone offer help...I am trying to download the Flash Media player. When I
click on Download Now it tells me I may need to click on the Gold Bar at the
top of the browser page to continue. However, I get no gold bar on the browser
page. Any suggestions? Thanks!

It's not actually golden and it does not appear on top of the browser (not in
all browsers).
Can you screen shot while you on that page, upload to your server and we will
help you find the place you suppose to click.

what "videos"? if the latest player works then it should play any flash content - is there a
specific site or sites that utilize flash video that fails for you? What browser/platform?

list some urls please...

Urami,

Thanks for your reply. I'm really a novice at the whole computer
thing...mostly self-taught, & I don't know how to do a "screen shot" as you
suggested. If you can walk me through it, that would be appreciated. I can tell
you that I see nothing that indicates a place to click to allow the install.
Once again though, I may be missing something. I do often go to websites & when
a picture or something is supposed to open I get a blank box with a small white
box with a red "X" in the top left corner. Not sure if my computer is not
allowing certain things to come through & that may be the problem here??? Once
again, thank you for your help!

I also downloaded Flash 9 today and clicked on install. It says this was
successful and i can see the animation. however, I cannot see videos that use
this product. there isn't any gold bar or clickable space anywhere on the page
either.

When I go into control panel under new programs, I can see Adobe Flash 9 with
Active X but there isn't any size notated tot he right of the screen.

I'm not sure if this matters but I do have macromedia and fireworks on my
computer because i use that to update my website.

Any help you can provide for helping me to get this to work would be greatly
appreciated.

Best if you have some photo/image editing program like photoshop or photopaint.
Than you open the website you talk about, hit the Print Screen button (PrtSc)
and open one of these program said above, make new file (usually CTRL N) and
paste the screen CTRL V you just took using the button on the keyboard .
It should automatically dump the screen and you should be able to save it as
a file. When comes to screen shots, preferred will be GIF file type.

If you can walk me through it, that would be appreciated. I can tell

it could be Kim that you have some program that blocks flash. There are many
anti ad ware and spy ware programs that can do it. It could also be that there is
some conflict preventing you from downloading it, something really hard to
troubleshoot across the Internet :)

I tell you what. First go to this website:
http://www.adobe.com/licensing/distribution/

This is a place where you can get Plug in and Player for off line distribution.
For instance you want to install on client's computer and he has no Internet
access. You apply for "License Flash Player only ›"license and you will get approve
right away. It's an instant process. The benfit of it is that you get links to
download installers right to your desktop. So you can get the flash 8 (not 9) for
both IE and FireFox than install it w/o the browser, directly from desktop.

Flash player 8 is preferred over 9, the 9 has many problems and personaly
dare not to use it yet till Adobe fix it properly.

let me know how it goes.
