Adobe Flash 10.1 Won't Operate iSight On Some Sites With Mac OS 10.6

i have Mac snow leopard 10.5, but every time i download the update for 10.6, my adobe flash player (10.1) that operates my iSight cam doesn't turn the cam on with some sites... not all sites... just some. my photo booth application works. it's happened three times now and i've used Time Machine to go back and restore my Mac to 10.5 and Adobe flash works perfect on all sites with that snow leopard version. does anyone know of any reason that would be happening? i've checked firewalls, global settings....everything. i even get the adobe message asking if i want to allow my cam to be turned on, but even when i click yes, it will not turn it on on some sites. the audio works fine... what could be causing this??? thanks.

Hi, the Mac helper isn't on the forum anymore so we depend on other Mac users to help. However, this thread has info on iSight so I thot it may be helpful.

I'm not sure what is causing your exact issue with updating to 10.6 and FP 10.1. Have you tried turning off the hardware acceleration? I'm not sure if that would help, but you could try. I'm not that familiar with Mac either, but not knowing what the upgrade has that appears to conflict with FP 10.1 doesn't help either. It must be something.
To turn off h.a. go to this link and right click on the Flash logo and click on Settings, then Display Settings and UNcheck the h.a. there. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
I hope you can find a solution.
Thanks,

Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I keep getting "blocked plug-in" messages. Adobe Flash player update won't upload. Suggestions?

Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I keep getting "blocked plug-in" messages. Adobe Flash player update won't upload. Suggestions?

You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5655?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US which also covers ‘blocked plug-in’.

Adobe 10.2 flash player doesn't work on some site with diff browsers

WTF! I've been through every forum about new adobe flash player it doesnt work on some site i.e facebook, ustream, fox news, dailymotion and cartoon network...Nobody, not even adobe has a real solution to this problem! Some site stream good other don't at all. All I get is a blue box in the display sometimes it loads, but doesn't play the video or games. Updated Java and SWF and by the way this a brand new computer fresh out the box WIN7 64 worked before why not now! I've reinstall and uninstall, checked active X java scripting, and global settings and so on, but nothing seems to work. WHY? Global settings doesn't work for some unknown reason can't enable some of the settings. Everything work fine on my PC before the update, so go figure adobe. No! browser works with the new flash player properly. Fire, IE, Safari, and Opera none of these browser work with the flash player like it should! HELP!!! "I see why apple doesnt wont to have anything to do with adobe flash."

I don't understand - in your post you mention "new Flash Player" several times, but in the subject you mention 10.2...?
What is the exact FP version you have?
For your blue box problem, have you tried to disable Hardware Acceleration?

My Adobe Flash CS6 Color Picker has ODD colors. I'm using Mac Mini OSX 10.8.1. Is there a fix?

My Adobe Flash CS6 Color Picker has ODD colors. I'm using Mac Mini OSX 10.8.1. Is there a fix?
I click on the color picker and where I have seen the normal #0000ff blue color on my windows computer, this mac Mountain lion version shows a purple-ish color. Oddly, If I enter the hex # into the color picker, and use it as a fill, the correct color displays on the stage but when i use the eyedropper on that color, it shows it as the purple color again on the toolbar.
I've seen a similar thing like this happen when using adobe photoshop. However, the usual solution is to just make the managed color profile set to monitor RGB. The only downside with Flash is there is no preference to set that. The color palette in Adobe Photoshop displays as it should with the correct blue.
I should also note that I'm using a Samsung 941bw monitor with my mac mini which could also be part of the problem.
I figured i'd make this post anyway just in case it's the OS & Adobe Flash CS6 and not the monitor.
I've included a screenshot as well that shows that i've chosen the purple color and then made a rectangle shape on the stage and it comes out blue.
Thanks ahead for your response(s)

Seems misleading that on the adobe site for Adobe Flash CS6 it says:
System requirements:
Mac OS X v10.6.8 or v10.7. Adobe Creative Suite 5, CS5.5, and CS6 applications support Mac OS X Mountain Lion (v10.8) when installed on Intel based systems.**

Is there a way to view Flash videos on my iMac without downloading Adobe Flash Player? I'm concerned about performance and security with Flash Player.

Is there a way to view Flash videos on my iMac without downloading Adobe Flash Player? I'm concerned about performance and security with Adobe Flash Player.

If the video is only available in a format that requires Flash player : then no.
However, a great many can also be viewed in an HTML5 version, in which case http://hoyois.github.io/safariextensions/clicktoplugin/ or similar can be set up so that Flash never runs unless you specifically choose it to.

I need to update my adobe flash, but mozilla won't let it. I get a message telling me to close mozilla first. ??What's up with this???

I am trying to update my adobe flash. I followed the instructions on your support pages and the adobe update site, but STILL came back with a message to CLOSE MOZILLA BEFORE COMPLETING MY UPDATE. It's an online update. Won't closing my browser hinder that process just a bit? smh... p.s. I don't have internet explorer or google chrome on my pc, as those browsers just allow a lot of crap to find its way into my pc. Please help. thanks.

Download and save the Flash installer to the desktop and close Firefox. 
Start the Flash installation with a double-click on the desktop icon.

Adobe Flash Player Update won't install

Have tried several times on my own -- and with Apple Tech support to get the Adobe Flash Player on my I Mac to finish installing. I got it to initialize, but to finish the process, it only goes part way (36% or 28% or 26%) and then locks up and won't go complete the process. Safari is not on. Was on tech support call for 2 1/2 hours and we tried different browsers and methods -- still had lock up problem. How can this get fixed?

Follow these instructions: How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X to the letter. You'lll perform an "offline" install and be up to date.
Adobe updates are released on average about every six weeks, not once a week. In fact, the most often they've been this year was in March when a security issue was addressed and an additional Windows update was released ten days after the regular update, but that wouldn't have affected you on a Mac.

How can u open certain web sites w/out adobe flash? It won't let u download help

How do u open web sights w/Kurt Adobe flash?? It won't download it help

Flash itself is not supported on any iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) which is why you can't download it (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/)
Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are probably out of luck if you want to play on-line though the iSwifter app might work on some of them, but again some flash games have app versions in the store.

Adobe flash player 2014 won't install on Mountain Lion

Suddenly last week flash player stopped working on my MacBook Pro - Mountain Lion. I tried downloading the new version but it kept timing out and ending with an error message. Even when I unlocked my my security settings to allow downloads from anywhere. I was able to download some version of Adobe Flashplayer via an alternate site - softpedia, but only some videos will work with that and with others I continue to get the alert to upgrade. I tried calling Apple, but of course they wanted me to pay to have them help me solve what is essentially THEIR problem as I see it. Only as a last resort.
C.

I've have this problem come and go, and come back again.
FIX: The best fix so far for me is to go back to Flash Version 13. The say Flash Player Version 13 is in "extended release". I am on Mac osx 10.7.5 the last version of mac operating system for my machine.
Find it here: for browsers, it may have the strange name "plug in content debugger", I think the word "plug in" matters for browsers. The other "projector" versions I don't know about. The "plug in debugger version 13" fixed my safari problems.
https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Fix 2: You must disregard the constant signaling to update to version 15 if you are getting it. The update to version 15 may load a broken version in the browser, then you have to uninstall it with their special utility and reinstall version 13. Get the uninstall download here (or search for adobe flash uninstall on the web):
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html#main_u ninstall
More Possible Explanation: Apparently the weird name "debugger" means they have debugged common problems with it. Essentially you are going back to the previous version since the new one has problems loading/working (keeps getting identified as out-of-date so it won't work) but they don't want to pull the new version off the market, can you imagine that mess. Thanks Adobe for the extended release we depend on it!
Here is adobe's comment on it:
EXTENDED SUPPORT RELEASE - FLASH PLAYER
What is the extended support release?
Adobe makes available a version of Flash Player called the "Extended Support Release" (ESR) to organizations that prefer Flash Player stability over new functionality. We have created a branch of the Flash Player code that we keep up to date with all of the latest security updates, but none of the new features or bug fixes available in our current release branch. This allows organizations to certify and stay secure on Flash Player with minimal effort.
10/14/2014 - Updated debugger and standalone versions of Flash Player. These players contain fixes for critical vulnerabilities identified in Security Bulletin APSB14-22. The latest version is 13.0.0.250 (Win and Mac). All users are encouraged to update to these latest versions.

Adobe Flash 16 Installation Won't Start at All

I am unable to install Adobe Flash onto a Win 7 computer, 64 bit. I downloaded install_flashplayer16x32_mssd_aaa_aih.exe and tried to execute it. It is listed in the Task Manager; but, nothing happens. It does not even begin to run the installation wizard. I tried to install it in Safe Mode. I ran it as administrator. I ran it without any browsers running. I got the same result in every case. It just shows in Task Manager and nothing else happens.
I installed and ran the latest version of MicrosoftFixit. I ran it a few times, selecting the option for trouble with installing a program in some cases and uninstalling a program in other cases. In every case, the list of programs found does not include Adobe Flash, Shockwave Flash, or Flash.
Between Fixit and Adobe's tool to detect if the program is installed, neither provided evidence that it was already installed; so, it doesn't appear to be an issue with remnants of a previously installed version that didn't get uninstalled correctly.
The file name suggests this is for a 32 bit version of the program. Should a 64 bit version of the program have been downloaded? I didn't have an option to select a 32 vs 64 bit program. The web site indicated that it knew the computer is running a 64 bit version of Windows 7; but, the install button still downloaded this file.
Any assistance you can provide will be appreciated.

Same issue here. Got pop up alert that needed to update Flash which had been fine. Tried both run/automatic install in IE11 and downloaded the same offline file as you. The installer window pops up but nothing ever starts. Was able to install successfully on 4 other computers all running Win7 Ultimate and no difference with this one. Been following other leads and have deleted all old Adobe flash and Macromedia files/folders and pretty much scrubbed all evidence that flash was not on here, Have run Malware, Spyware and AV software so the system is all clean, and this is still all I get.
Task manager does show it there also, but after it gets to this far, it does not process anymore
When I get tired of waiting on it, since it won't close by the red "X", I have to end it via Task Manager, and then it takes me to a non-existent web page { http://www.{completionpageurl}.com/?exitcode=-1 }.
Flash has been working great on this PC a couple years and updated regularly, so have no clue to issue now.

I want to install Adobe Flash Player & Firefox won't allow it - how do I get around this?

I need to allow Adobe Flash Player to be installed

Uninstall that old Shockwave Flash 9.0 r16 program first.
Then do this: Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
