Anyone else having problems downloading the Flash plug-in for FF from the link above?  It asks if I want to save the file but the download never starts. If I close FF, it says I'll cancel the download.

I cancelled it, closed FF, launched and tried again, but the download never starts. The file is shown in the folder as being 0 kb and even after ~10 min, it hasn't downloaded, and my network activity widget shows no download activity.

Win 7Pro+SP1, 32-bit.

EDIT: I was able to update Flash for IE11 on this same PC from that link posted above, so I know my connection works and I can do updates.

Ron,

The first time (machine) I downloaded the FF plugin, it downloaded without any problem.

But when I tried on another system later in the day, I had the same experience you described for quite a while.

@ky331- Thanks for the info. At least it's not just me.  :Wink:

Tried again after reading your post, but still not downloading. Guess their servers must be busy. I'll try again tomorrow...

Latest Flash update for FF finally downloaded today. I closed FF and launched the installer .exe which ran.

When I go here using FF to check,  clicking the Check Now button gives: "Please Wait. Checking latest version info." But it never responds.

Doing the exact same thing with IE11 says: "Congratulations, your computer has the latest Flash Player installed."

DUH!  :TongueTied:
