I cannot install flash player on my MAC - (osx 10.8.4) - it downloads 50%, then clicks to "finish"

I cannot install flash player on my Mac - running OSX 10.8.4 and Safari 6.0.5.  The progress bar show is as  downloading to 50%, then converts to "installing" and immediately goes to 100% and says it's installed. But it's not.  I get another Adobe Flash installer icon on my desktop instead.  Help!

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
First, remove Adobe Flash Player completely using Flash Player uninstaller for MAC : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
Download offline installer for Adobe Flash Player (MAC) from here : http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
Once the file is downloaded, run the installer
Thanks,
Vikram

  • Installed Flash player on my Mac osx 10.5.8 but doesn't work

    The installation went fine. I've actually installed it over and over again. But programs that require it (show up as a browse button for photos) don;t work. I can't see where the flash player is installed on my computer either. Please help. Thanks, Hilary

    Call Apple and file a formal complaint, it's Apple that is not supplying security or patches to 10.5 users and expects everyone to be computer guru's.
    16.5% of Mac users are on 10.5 and Apple just denies security and stability updates to force you to upgrade your OS or your hardware prematurely.
    There is a massive botnet of over 600,000 Mac's and the prime location is on 10.5 Intel Mac's which they refuse to fix.
    Appe's "solution" is for you to upgrade your operating system to 10.6 or even 10.7 (this will make your machine slow and won't run a lot of your software, another "problem")
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    IMO 10.6  would be best for you, the least trouble, but you bought a Mac for it to "just work" as your not "into" computers, your just a regular user like most Apple's customers.
    So call Apple and complain, then buy the 10.6.3 retail disk and stick it into your machine and upgrade and cross your fingers and update to 10.6.8. 
    Backup your persona data off the machine first to a storage drive and disconnect.
     Most commonly used backup methods explained
    Once your on 10.6.3 use software update to get to 10.6.8, then you can install Flash.

  • Installing Flash Player 9 on Mac OSX 10 system

    Can someone please help me to download the latest version of
    Flash Player 9. I am unable to view video on MySpace, I get a popup
    saying I have to install the latest version of Flash Player. I
    downloaded the latest version, got the icon on my desktop, and when
    I go to install the plug-in, it says none has been installed, and
    that I have to install it manually. I am unable to get past this
    screen, and don't know what to do next, if I have something in my
    preferences turned off, or what.
    Please advise, THanks,
    Bill F.

    I am running OS X, and I just installed flash player 9. I am
    not able to look at any flash sites anymore. I have been
    installing, reinstalling, uninstalling and nothing seems to work. I
    am not very computer saavy, but i can normally figure these thing
    out. Adobe is no help at all. I feel as though I should reinstall
    everything over again on my mac. Please let me know if it is
    possible to fix this bug.
    Have you had any response Bill? Is there a mac help forum for
    this?

    I can download the file. However, when I am asked to click on

    Use the offline installers.

  • Keep getting "General Install Error" when installing Flash Player 13 on Mac OSX 10.9.3

    For about 2 weeks now I've been getting software update notifications for Adobe Flash, Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat X. Every time I run the update install I get an error that will not allow it finish. For Flash specifically that error says "General Install Error". I've uninstalled all of these programs to try to correct this error, now they are unable to be reinstalled due to this error. Please help!

    Hi Sanhodo4,
    To confirm, did you actually terminate the Safari process, or simply close the Safari windows? If you closed just the browser window, the Safari process was not terminated.  Please refer to How do I quit Safari (or another browser/app) in OS X.

  • I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8

    I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8, it supposedly downloads but then I can't find it, when I search for flash player in downloads in the finder, I get three choices:
    1. Adobe flash player install manager:  when I click on this, the options are either to quit or uninstall.
    2. Flash Player:  when I click on this, it shows me Flash Player in the finder, when I click on that, it leads me to install it again.
    3. Install Adobe Flash Player: just taked me back to install it again.
    But it never seems to install or open.
    Any help would be great, thanks!!

    From the upper-left of the screen, choose Safari > Quit Safari
    You can now proceed with the installation.

    hi there.
    When i try to install flash player in my mac, it keep asking me to remove safary.
    how do i install abods flash player?
    thanks for your help

    You need to quit Safari before Flash can be installed. No need to remove Safari.
    With Safari open, from the menu bar click Safari > Quit Safari
    Then proceed with the Flash installation.
    When you are done installing Flash, you can re launch Safari.

  • When I try to install flash player on my mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, and it will not take my password.  tried changing to a new password and same result

    When I try to install flash player on my Mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, but it will not take my password.  Tried changing the password, but same result.  Suggestions??

    This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
    If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt.  If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
    If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.
