Adobe Flash 12, why won't it update on my mac?

I just downloaded Adobeflash update 12, but after it installs on my computer, I still can't view anything.  I tried again, installed and finished the process- but still can't view anything on YouTube.  They all come up saying I need to update my adobe flash.  What do I need to do?  Was I supposed to uninstall after I tried to install it the first time?

I agree with Bernd! It would help if you could specifically describe what you are trying to do.

  • Why won't Numbers update free, when my other iWork apps have update for free?

    why won't Numbers update free, when my other iWork apps have update for free?

    I'm not sure if this answers your question. I will update them in iTunes. Then I will connect my phone and in the phone controls I can click the "Update" button and it will change to "Will Update" but doesn't.
    That's part of the problem. Once upon a time, iTunes would just automatically update apps from the computer to the phone and now it apparently requires prompting that doesn't work.

  • Why won't Apple update its iPAD to send messages other than imessages?

    Why won't Apple update its iPAD to send messages to phones with systems other and OS? I just purchased an ipad4 for my husband. This limitation is very frustrating. When I purchased and ipad3, I was told how to make the message go through as an SMS; however, this never worked. Had it not been for the fact that my husband has an iphone5 and getting an ipad with the same operating sytem simplifies things for him, it may have been better to get an Android tablet and switch phones!

    I understand that, but it does have a message system, so it makes sense that you should be able to receive ALL messages via this system.  I do have a phone and I can get them all, but if I sit down at the ipad to check messages, I only get those sent through imessage.  Sorry, I'm venting and you probably can't do anything about it.  Apple needs to wake up and figure out that if it doesn't change its protocol on the ipad, then people will switch to another system that does. Hoping that someone from Apple sees this.

  • Why won't OSX update to current version?

    I have OSX version 10.6.8.  When I run software update, it tells me my software is up to date.  On my other Macbook Pro, I have 10.9.4.  I realize that I will have to run a series of updates to get from 10.6 to 10.9 but why won't software update allow me to update to the next OS version in the sequence?

    Because Mavericks is a full version upgrade and not an update; it needs to be downloaded from the Mac App Store, which will take a compatible Mac directly to 10.9.4.

  • Adobe Flash crashes after 9/7/14 update.

    I updated Adobe Flash a few days ago (9/7 if I'm correct)  and since that time Adobe Flash frequently stops operating and crashes constantly in Firefox (about 15 times according to my crash report function) -- showing a dialogue screen that says it has stopped operating and querying if I want to continue using the plug in or stop it. 
    (I specifically have Flash set on manual download  to figure these kinds of things out because the last time something like this happened after an Adobe update the audio shut off on Youtube -- and it was an Adobe problem.) 
    The Firefox forum has a long thread on this current problem.. trying to figure out if it's Firefox -- .but I suspect it may be Adobe (as it was in the Youtube case.)  May I recommend that Adobe install a "feedback" site for crashes after updates so that you can find these faster -- if indeed they are Adobe issues?  The Youtube problem took almost two weeks to fix and I think it was because you didn't know.
    Thanks..   If you have another answer that would be great -- in the mean time I'll keep using Chrome until I get an answer...
    p.s. I have already disabled protect mode and hardware acceleration in Firefox to see if that helps.  It doesn't.

    Thank you Jeromie -- I will update...
    Here are four most recent crash reports -- with oldest first  -- There are about 15 of them and it takes about a minute to get each of them -- I don't have time to retrieve and copy all of them right now...if you want more let me know and I'll do them this evening.  p.s. why does the report say 'bp' automatically after I've retrieved it?  Just curious...

  • 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.
