Why Yahoo asks me to get latest Macromedia Flash player if i have the latest version ?

I wanted to edit my Yahoo avatar, but it req the latest Macromedia Flash Player. I downloaded it, restarted computer, and entered again and still they req the player! What is the problem ?Why Yahoo asks me to get latest Macromedia Flash player if i have the latest version ?
remove flash player 10 use 9





Messenger ';9'; 1st version was in Beta (testing) form. The newest version is not, But it's not working well either. Stick to 8.1 until they work out the Bugs. Including people using 8.1 trying to message ones with 9 or reverse they are having compatibility problems; like text not showing,pictures not showing. It shuts down on Vista users , not allowing people to log in.Web cams do not always work. Many things do not work or are missing that YM 8.1 has. It Seems for Vista users it is so buggy Yahoo is giving up on it and are no longer trying to fix it. http://www.ymessengerblog.com/blog/2008/鈥?/a>


You need to remove version 9 1st to Get version 8 to work.


Use this method: Start,My PC, C drive, open Program files.Next open Yahoo file then Messenger file.Click on UNWISE to Un install messenger 9 completely. Do not just delete yahoo file as this can cause problems with other Yahoo programs.


Download the newest 8.1 here http://download.yahoo.com/dl/msgr8/us/ym鈥?/a>


Your contacts list and messages are stored online and will be there when you return to 8.1 messenger.


Another big problem is with the latest update for Flash Player


Flash player 10 Does have conflicts, and is causing some Yahoo Messenger services to not load.Use the link below for a download of Flash player # 9.0.124.0 . You have to remove the present flash player,add/remove programs in control panel, then download the older version.

Some people are losing signal,things fade out, freezing up or getting disconnected . This can be caused my running low on virtual memory! You can increase your memory by going to start button, settings, control panel, system, advance tab, performance, advance tab, virtual memory, change it, make it 1500 kb or higher, In both boxes, click apply then ok .

If installing that doesn't work (no need to restart computer, only web browser), then download Flash 9 zip from the following page (not the debugger version):

It may take a minute or two since you are downloading all 11 revisions of Flash Player 9 for mac windows and linux.





Once downloaded, open the '9r115' folder, close your browser, and install using 'flashplayer9r115_mac.dmg' if you are on a mac, or 'flashplayer9r115_winax.exe' if you are on a PC using Internet Explorer, or 'flashplayer9r115_win.exe' if you are on a PC using Firefox/Opera.
