Security Update for Flash Player (KB923789) Install Failure

Security Update for Flash Player (KB923789) fails to install. I get an Error
Code: 0x643. I have tried Update a second time and it still fails. I upgraded
Flash Player and still got the same error. I opened an SRZ but that process
could take awhile. Any ideas?

 

This update failed for me also. I can not find KB923789 in the knowledge base.
When I click on the red x in update history for help, nothing happens. I
don't even know if I have Adobe Flash player installed. I can't find it.

 

When I click on the red x I get the window that provides the error code. You
can get flash player at Adobe's WEB site.

 

I have exactly the same problem. Tried installing 4 times, after download,
and 4 failures with error code "0x643". Hope someone frrom MS responds soon.

 

Don't bother - today Adobe posted a new Flash Player - version 9.0.28.0

 

I wrote to MS and they asked me to do a manual install. When I tried it I
received an error message that the "version of Macromedia Flash you have
installed does not match the update you are trying to install". I then went
to add/remove programs and uninstalled Flashplayer which was version 8. Then
opened IE which asked me to install Flashplayer because it could not render
the page properly. I proceeded to install the Flashplayer, which took 2
attempts and I check with the Flashplayer checker which can be located with
Google to be sure it was installed. Do not forget to reboot after the
installation and before using the checker.
I then went to IE and did the windows update. With the new Flashplayer,
apparently the update is not necessary because it did not appear. Closed case!
Hope this helps someone.

 

I got the 9.0.28.0 version of Flash Player installed and the requirement for
the security update is no longer present.
This is the first time I realized that I may have different versions of
Flash Player in Fire Fox and Internet Explorer. In FF I have 8.0.24.0 In I.E.
I have 9.0.28.0.
I guess that's OK.

 

It's even worse than that. I have a different version for IE, FF2.0 and
Dreamweaver. Seems like we are wasting much memory here in having to store
the same program in several versions.

 

I had the same problem. Windows Update "wanted" to install KB923789, but
th installation failed everytime. Error code 0x643. Installing the
newest version of Flashplayer did not help, untill I installed the
newest version for both my browsers. It appeared necessary to update
Flash player for Firefox and Internet Explorer separately. After doing
this, KB923789 did not appear anymore in Windows update. Link for
updating Flashplayer for IE an Firefox: http://tinyurl.com/yae429
Control version of Flashplayer IE and Ff:

Sorry, the first link I gave is to the dutch page. The English UK page:
http://www.adobe.com/uk/ You can go to the page for the country and
language you want at the head of the page.

 

I don't think the MS update for flashplayer has anything to do with FF. I
only had to update the Flashplayer in IE for the update to disappear. I still
have an older version in FF. Of course, MS would like it that the
Flashplayer would not work with FF. What else can you expect?

 

It's just that at first I only had updated Firefox. Sometimes I forget
have IE

That manual fix is very helpful thanks - to summarise though, it's a bug in
the update software which is not checking versions properly!

 

Yes, after I rebooted, the Security Update (KB923789) was not needed! Cool!
Thanks!

 

The same has been happening to me. I have the updated version and I can play
videos on youtube with no problem. I just want to know how to get rid of
that little yellow balloon stating I have an update to install. Everytime I
do, I get a failure, but it won't go away. Keeps coming back. It has
installed to my computer and I dont know where to go to delete that install
program. HELP!!!!!

 

This is how I got rid of the yellow balloon after numerous attempts to
install failed: Download the uninstaller found here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157
Save it to your desktop for easy acces. I had to reboot before uninstalling
to make sure it was not in use.

Then re-install on all you browsers. The link to the download is found here:

That got rid of the ballon for me once I installed on both IE and Firefox.
Good luck.

Download Flash Player 9 install and then reboot. You won't be prompted for
that update afterwards.

 

I get a failure to install measage when the windows update tries to install this. Going to your web site yields the same result. Windows XP
