Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 7 problems – and Adobe Flash updates

This just in from EP:
/Adobe has released new security updates for Flash Player versions
11.7 and 11.9 for Windows in Adobe security bulletin APSB13-26:
http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb13-26.html/
/There are some problems with Internet Explorer 11 under both Windows
7 and Windows 8.1./
/First problem – Google and Outlook Web Access don’t seem to work
correctly with IE11 on Win8.1 as mentioned at The Register site:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/10/21/internet_explorer_11_breaks_google_outlook_web_access//
/Second problem – blurry fonts occurring on IE11 on Win7 SP1 as
mentioned in this recent Softpedia.com <http://Softpedia.com> article:
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Internet-Explorer-11-for-Windows-7-Blurry-Font-Issues-398251.shtml/
/In short, those using any version of Windows with Adobe Flash Player
should install the most recent flash player security updates. And
those using Windows 7 should be using either IE9 or IE10 but do not
upgrade Internet Explorer to IE11 until the problems with IE11 get
resolved./
Thanks, as always, EP!

EP’s mail is interesting – I did Black Tuesdays updates [Win 7]
including IE11. Videos from sports sites would not run and the
problem was with Silverlight. Kept telling me to install and then
told me I already had the current version. In tandem to this I
kept getting Flash updates which I already had. There was a
utilities program I run which wouldn’t after the updates.[Tuneup
Utilities 2014] I restored back to pre Black Tuesday and all was
well. I have to work out which of the upgrades was causing me the
grief!
Thanks

I had problems with ie 11 and flash. I would download and install,
but on restart it would say I needed the new ver of flash. went
through this several times, finally restored back to ie 9. I never
got ie 10 to work either.

Same thing here with 10, had to restore back to 9… and my flash
still isn’t working; have to use Chrome to watch videos. Also, my
SimplePass would not work with 10. Think I’ll wait a bit longer to
try 11.

Yes I’m having problems with my flash player for IE 11 when I
upgraded to Win 8.1.
Web site keeps asking to upgrade to the latest flash player but
when I do Adobes web site says flash player installed already and
some thing about it being integrated in the operating system.
Contacted Microsoft three time no help.
First time told me it was Adobe update problem.
Second time had to reinstall YouTube app.(Seemed to help).
Third time was told it was the web sites them selves problem.
Doesn’t make since to me because Google chrome still works fine.
I am a computer novice and was really starting to like Windows 8
Start Screen.
I was excited about the new features with 8.1 but now I’m just
frustrated.

@Victor -
Hard to say, but if I had to guess, I’d say the web site itself –
the one that’s telling you that you need a later Flash Player – is
at fault.
ON the other hand, many people are reporting problems with Flash
under IE 11. See, for
example,http://news.softpedia.com/news/Flash-Not-Working-on-Internet-Explorer-11-for-Some-Users-398893.shtml

Fixed Flash player for IE 11
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-performance/flash-player-not-working-on-my-windows-81/0bff4328-e4c6-4b71-9b8a-9657ade59636.
Don’t know if this link works.
Here is what I did to fix flash problem.
Had to reset IE 11
Go to Control Panel then click Network and Internet click Internet
Options that should take you to the Internet Properties window
click the Advanced tab then find the Reset Internet Explore
Settings button click on it and a warning comes up (Are you sure
you want to reset) click that button and when it done resetting
(Green check marks) restart computer.
Worked for me.
Flash player is working on all my web sites now.
Hope this helps other with the same problem.

Same problem others have reported. Win7 and IE 11 for sure cause a
problem with Adobe Flash Player. It’s obvious Microsoft isn’t too
concerned – they have moved on to Win8 and those of us who
haven’t, well, uninstall 11 and go back to 10, 9 or 8, whichever
works best for you. Seriously makes a guy think of using Chrome or
Firefox…

Similar problems, Intel driver update site doesn’t even
install/seek correctly. Went back to IE10 all is well until next time…

Hi all
I am trying to install Adobe flash player 14 on to a windows 7
machine using
Internet Explorer 11 and Jaws 14. Each time I run the installer, it
crashes.
Anyone know why this could be happening and how I could fix it?
Thanks for any help
