Adobe Shockwave Player Mac Download Not Working



Adobe Shockwave Player Plugin free download - Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Media Player, Adobe Photoshop, and many more programs. I have downloaded shockwave on both laptop and desktop. I need it for on-line work training in (ironically) computer skills. Shockwave is showing as installed and enabled. I have tried with IE, Chrome and Microsoft Edge but each time I open the relevant page it says that Shockwave is not installed.

If you have problems installing Adobe Shockwave Player, work through the steps below. After each step, restart the computer to ensure that the changes take effect before moving on to the next step.

Be sure to remove previous versions before you install Shockwave Player. Use any of the following methods:

Shockwave Player 11 Mac

  • Double-click the uninstaller.exe file in C:Windowssystem32AdobeShockwave <version>. For example, C:Windowssystem32AdobeShockwave 12
  • Use the Add Or Remove Programs utility in the Windows Control Panel.
  • (Shockwave 8 and 8.5) Use the uninstaller available from the Web Players page.

Note: Close all applications before you run the Shockwave Player uninstaller. Quit all running applications, including browsers and instant messaging clients. Check the Windows system tray to make sure that no applications that use Shockwave Player are in use.

2. Download the Adobe Shockwave Player installer

Before installing Shockwave Player, check the following browser settings:

Make sure that the security level is not set to High or to a custom level that doesn't allow viewing of ActiveX controls. Typically, the default security level (medium) allows you to view Shockwave content. For a custom level, ensure that both Download Signed ActiveX Controls and Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins are set to Prompt.

  1. Click Defaul Level, or click Custom Level and do the following:
    a. Find the section ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins.
    b. Set Download Signed ActiveX Controls to Prompt.
    c. Set Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins to Prompt.

If you don't have administrator access to Windows XP SP2 , Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 you can't install Shockwave Player successfully. Administrative privileges are required for the Windows system registry and for the C:WINDOWSsystem32AdobeShockwave folder.

Some Internet utilities, such as Norton Internet Utilities, function similar to a firewall and can restrict viewing of ActiveX controls. In some cases, they block Shockwave content. Ensure that firewall or utility settings are set to allow ActiveX controls and Shockwave (SWF) content.
