I've been trying to install the lasted version of Adobe Flash Driver and it keeps getting stuck at either 25% or 30% I've tried restarting it and checking the plug ins and it still hasn't worked. I don't know what to do help!!

Adobe Flash Player Installer gets stuck (Mac OS X Yosemite)

Every time i try to install Flash Player it gets stuck. Normally on around 29%, but it varies.
I've looked through countless forums / discussions and have tried uninstalling everything, re-installing - nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions?

Adobe Flash Player Installer gets stuck "downloading" and won't proceed

I'm on Mac OSX 10.10.1, using Safari and Chrome as browsers. I recently upgraded to Yosemite and since then have gotten error messages that I don't have Flash installed. When I download the Installer, it gets stuck and won't move past "30%" downloaded. I've left it for hours, and it is still at 30 when I return. Is there a permissions issue that I could play with to allow it to continue installing? Any suggestions for what to try to get this installed?
I've been able to download the installer itself, but the problem comes after I double-click "Install Adobe Flash Player." See screenshot below.
This is where it gets stuck:

Problems installing Photoshop CS4, keeps getting stuck on "installing Adobe Air." Tips?

I'm trying to install Photoshop CS4, but it keeps getting stuck on "installing Adobe Air" every time. Freezes, makes no more progress, eventually I have to force quit. I've even downloaded and installed it (Air) separately, but it keeps getting stuck on it in the CS4 install. Any tips? I'm running 10.8.5 on a MacBook Air. Saw something about deleting Adobe FlashPlayer to maybe fix it? Any and all tips welcome. Thx.

Googling only comes up with a couple things where someone was trying to
install a cracked version they downloaded, so it could be a corruption
problem.
If this is a downloaded installer, then redownload it and try installing,
again.
If you are inserting a DVD and autoplay is starting up and you get this
message, you can shut down the installer process as you've done then instead
of double-clicking the DVD, use right-click Explore to view the files
directly on the DVD without running AutoPlay, then find the setup.exe or
something.MSI with EN in it's name to run the installer, directly, without
goint through autoplay. This would only make a difference if the autoplay
is corrupted somehow but everything else is ok. Since your error message
talks about autoplay then maybe that is the case.
If you are calling Adobe for support, it can take hours, depending on when
you call.
This "open letter to Adobe customers" was posted within the last few days
and basically apologizes for poor support, recently, while they change from
support-provider to another:

Why after so many updates does address book keep getting stuck?

Address book is easily the most troublesome app in OSX. My current frustration with it is that it keeps getting stuck in endless loops, requiring it to be killed and restarted, and most likely introducing more errors in the database that make for more troubles, and so on ad nauseum. Really, Apple; couldn't you make an address book that "just works" by now? Maybe it should have been kept simpler?

I'm pretty skeptical of attributing this to anything peculiar to my current environment. I've observed continuous bad behavior by Address Book as long as there has been Mac OSX in the early 00's, often involving its interactions with Mail and Calendar. For the longest time, it couldn't undo, which made for some nasty mistakes.
But here's my report. I see a few red items that appear to reflect outdated things that haven't been removed or the continuous OSX complaining about Flash player versions. Let me know if you see something problematic...

HELP Adobe flash drive update BUG?? Big Problem

I bought a 13 inch MacBook Air in August 2014.
OS X Maverick, Version 10.9.4. 4 GB memory, 256GB storage.
I have been using Safari to see lecture videos from Echo360, and they have been working well despite the slow internet of the country.
Just until two days ago, everything had been working fine, until a Adobe Flash Driver Update popped up on my screen.
At first I ignored it (b/c I usually dont care about using the latest versions; the lecture videos had been working perfectly)
but it kept popping up so I clicked update.
The next day, my mac kept losing connection to internet every 1-3 minutes, such as "resolving host" messages.
The videos kept crashing and I had to re open the page, refreshing wouldnt work. about 15 times for a 50 minute video.
I erased the Flash Driver.plugin from my internet plug-ins in the library, and the internet came back alive.
I was guessing the "updated" plugins were eating up my internet/browser...
So then I downloaded chrome so I wouldnt have to manually use adobe anymore,
and now, the videos keep freezing at random moments at about 5-10 minute intervals. Now that the internet is back alive, i just have to refresh the page, which still takes forever to load...fortunately the browsers dont crash anymore...
Right then, I completely disposed anything related to adobe flash drive. I still have Adobe pdf which works great.
But even after, it kept freezing...
Maybe I was thinking this is normal when watching videos on chrome b/c the plug ins are not manually stored in my mac?
If not, what is causing the freezing of the videos on google chrome? (i dont think my mac is losing internet connection anymore every second like yesterday)
Is there any way to fix it? Is it from yesterday's history of downloading the "update"?
I just want to be able to watch my lecture videos like I normally did the past two weeks, before I downloaded the "update"
and now I am afraid that downloading adobe might crash my internet/browsers again.
It took me several hours to come to erasing the "updated" plug ins as I am fairly a noob in computers.
I spent a lot of time and researched a lot up till 5AM in the morning just last night.
and I have exams coming up next week... I would really want this to be resolved.
Should I try downloading adobe from its actual website and see what happens?
If yes, which versions would you recommend?
Yesterday when I checked after the update, it stated the most current Adobe 15.
If this contains bugs for mavericks, I would rather do older versions.
I do not know which version I was using before the "update" when everything worked perfectly.
Thanks for reading all this
I know I am all over the place; Im just very frustrated and desperate as not knowing what to do....
I just want my mac to work like before I clicked on the "update"
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thank you

You probably installed some kind of malware pretending to be a Flash update. That's very common.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

I tried to eject a cd, didn't work so I turned off the computer and now it keeps getting stuck at the gray screen. How do I fix it?

Here are a few more details. I put in a game cd for a windows computer, once I opened the folder on the desktop I noticed the install application was .exe so I tried to eject the cd but no matter what I tried on the computer it wouldn't come out. I will say though that I didn't try the manual cd eject cause I didn't have anything small to hit the button in the cd drive with. It was getting late so we decided to just turn off the computer and leave it for the next day. I can't remember if we turned the computer off with apple shut down or by holding down the power button but we walked away pretty quickly before it was fully shut down. The next day the computer won't turn on. When I walked into the room I was the computer stuck with a grey background with the apple logo showing and the circular thing under it frozen. Since no one was in the room I held down the power button and turned the computer off. We tried to start the computer again later but again it keeps getting stuck at the same spot. Now when we hold the power button down to turn it off I'm not sure if it's really turning off all the way. The screen goes dark but it sounds like the fan is still going. I tried disconnecting everything but the keyboard and mouse but when I started it up again it got stuck on the grey screen with just the apple logo. I'd really apprechiate help on this cause I live in Germany right now and support call centers work so much worse when you don't speak the language well... Thanks for any help you can give!

Restart your computer while holding down left mouse key. That will eject the CD and your Mac will start as normal.

Why does iTunes Match keep getting stuck on Step 1?

I realise there are already countless threads on here from people with the same problem but none of them seem to be able to help me. I've recently renewed my iTunes Match subscription after many months but it keeps getting stuck nearly halfway through Step 1. The bar gets so far and then stops for ages.
I've tried all sorts of things: Stopping and starting the match, deleting my iTunes Library.itl file (which just creates even more problems with my library, so I have to put it back to normal with a backup), signing in and out of iTunes Store, closing and reopening iTunes, restarting my PC, deleting duplicates etc. None of them is solving the problem.
In case it's relevant, I've got Windows 8 on my laptop and my iTunes library is based on an external hard-drive I've got connected to the laptop by USB.
If there is any definitive answer to solving this problem, can someone please help me ASAP?

i'm having the same problem. it's been in step 1 for two days. I tried stopping it and nothing. please let me know if you had a solution on this issue.
thx

My adobe flash player keeps crashing. Why?

I use Mozilla Firefox exclusively as my browser. When I am connected to Facebook and playing their casino games, the Adobe Flash player keeps randomly crashing. When it crashes, it locks up the computer and I have to shut down and reopen the browser. Recently, an information box has been opening up in the upper left corner of the screen called the Adobe Flash Player action box or something like that. The context is filled with lots of computer jargon I don't understand. At the bottom of the box there are 2 options to pick from, either dismiss or continue. Most of the time the screen freezes up before I've had the chance to pick one. After I go to the Windows task manager and shut down the boxes that were open, I get the normal gray "Adobe Flash Player has crashed" screen. The really odd thing is that there is no prompt allowing me to send a crash report to Mozilla. I have uninstalled and completely reinstalled the latest version of Mozilla Firefox. Just in case these might be a problem, I have the following 3 "add-ons" loaded in to the browser: Quick Time Plug-in 7.7.6 7.7.6.0, Shockwave Flash 16.0.0.305, and Shockwave for Director 12.1.7.157. As well, in case they might be the problem, I have the following 2 programs installed into my computer are: Adobe Flash Player 16 NPAPI and Adobe Shockwave Player 12.1. FYI: I am running Windows 8.1 64 bit. Hopefully I have given you enough information to make an assessment. If you need anything from me, please let me know. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Crashes or other problems with certain multimedia content in Firefox (such as YouTube videos and Flash animations or games) can often be resolved by performing the steps in these Knowledge Base articles:
* [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
* [[Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - Prevent it from happening again]]

Please tell us if this helped!

Firefox won't start. Everytime I end the process/close the last window, it keeps getting stuck at about 2500k memory in the task manager. (continued)

Firefox won't start. Everytime I end the process/close the last window, it keeps getting stuck at about 2500k memory in the task manager. The only way I have to fix it is to change some kind of compability settings or try and access it in a new way, and every time it crashes/closed/computer blue screens that setting will no longer work.
That is a short term solution, but eventually I'll run out of ways to access firefox successfully. I've tried many solutions, and some worked, but only once. I have yet to find a permanent solution for this problem.

First please update your plugins to make sure you are up to date. Shockwave Flash player has a newer version 16. In order to better manage the memory that Firefox uses please see these troubleshooting steps: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram Firefox Uses too much RAM]
You also mentioned that Firefox crashes, we're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
#Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
#Copy the '''5''' most recent Report IDs that start with '''bp-''' and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.
''' Note:''' If a recent Report ID does not start with '''bp-''' click on it and select '''Submit'''.
(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
