in Vista: Getting Adobe Flash Player to Work | Microsoft Vista | Tech-Recipes on Tech-Recipes
Tracy, there is no fix for this issue in vista 64-bit. Your computer has two versions of internet explorer. Go to all programs and pick the ie that does not say 64 bit and you will be able to run nay video from any sight through that version of ie. Adobe, nor anyone else, currently has a flash player available that supports ie 64-bit. Hope this helps you and others... it took me about an hour to find the root and the cure.

This postng is quite old but mine IE shows as 256 bit (IE 8) I am currently trying to find out what vista is on my computer but they are all the same right? are they all 64 bit? Anyway, I have flash as long as I turn off UAC but as soon as I turn it back on, I no longer have it again and I do not like to have the UAC off! Therefore, I have a fix to my problem but I'm not too happy with it. I have tried all the troubleshooting at Adobe and nothing works for me, I remember this happening once before but I forget how I fixed it. I think it was the file that you downloaded to your desktop and installed from there - it updated (or something) to your registry for Adobe. But that didnt work this time (sorry in a hurry or I'd look up this file name but I'm sure some of you know what I am talking about). I have not read all these posting but I will soon. I was posting this to see if there are anymore suggestions. But I guess I'm a little uninformed since I'm in a hurry, there might just be a solution on this posting somewhere lol.
Thanks
Thank god people are talking about this!!!! This is my first computer and didn't even know what all this bit stuff was but your comments really helped me figure out how to run turbo tax2008.Without your comments i think i would have just given up.Thank you so much for your suggestions they have really helped.

I wonder if the same is true for other 64-bit OS'? If so, Adobe need to wake up! The world is going 64-bit, whether they like it or not. Flash will lose it's 99.999% market share if they're not moving to 64-bit. Personally I love Silverlight and I'm sure MS are keeping Adobe up at night with that one.. ;)

how do you find out which internet explorer you have? I have i.e. 7 and how do i know if it is 32 bit or 64 bit?
