Re: Flash Player Error
 
I am also having this issue. I've updated flash player to the latest version on Firefox, IE9, and IE9(64-bit).
I can view the Quickstart Guide in any web browser by typing in the source link (file:///C:/Program%20Files%20%28x86%29/Digidesign/Pro%20Tools/QuickStart/QuickStart.html), yet it fails in Pro Tools SE (8.0.3.225). This seems like a minor bug in the program, and I'd be eternally grateful if anyone could fix it.

Re: Flash Player Error
 
People I fixed the problem:

"Pro tools start up screen shows a message stating tha adobe flash is not installed even though you installed several times" - This problem blocks you from using the program properly

The root of the problem is a wrong entry in windows registry that has to be erased (deleted)

Attention: If you have any doubts don't do the operation above, contact me and i will help.

1. Open windows registry (be careful here)
2. Access the Node:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet Settings\Zones]
3. Export this entire registry for back up purposes just in case
4. Notice the entries... the first entry within the root informed above should start from number 0 (zero), however you may notice that the first entry is a symbol different from any numbers we know. This entry has to be deleted. Only this entry.


I did this and now it works fine!! Please try it and if it works let me know.


My specs:
Pro Tools Se 8.0.3
Mobile PRE (Sound Board)
Notebook Lenovo
Intel Core(TM) I5 CPU
4GB RAM
Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 (64-Bits)
Thanks

Re: Flash Player Error
 
Good find Marco. There is a Microsoft FixIt Utility that you can download that will do this automatically: http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9763082

This should resolve this issue. Please let us know if it does or doesn't, thanks.

Re: Flash Player Error
 
Thanks. In the mean time, you should be able to use Pro Tools and bypass this quick start menu by opening one of the demo songs from the Windows Explorer, they should be in Program Files (x86)\Digidesign\Pro Tools.

You can delete the existing tracks and save it as something else so as not to overwrite the original demo.

Re: Flash Player Error
 
To confirm, are you getting the exact same error as described in this troubleshooting video?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMJFp90Zxgw

Do you use Internet Explorer? If you install the latest flash player through IE, does it make a difference?

Can you locate the quickstart.html file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Digidesign\Pro Tools\QuickStart\ and then right-click and choose to open it with Internet Explorer? Does the menu display properly in IE?

Jared 08-10-2011 12:04 PM

Re: Flash Player Error
 
Is anyone still encountering this error after running the Microsoft FixIt Utility with the latest version of Flash Player installed?
