Adobe Player 11.7 installation with OSX 10.8.3

Hi,
Is anyone else out there struggling to get the installation of 11.7 to actually work. I have a new mac book air with no flash player as yet installed, and it won't install at all. You double click install flash player, and then nothing happens.
I have tried this on my mid 2012 mac book pro, which has 11.6 and get the same result when trying to upgrade, which means its a common issue.
Anyone have a solution?
thanks

The OS X supported range for the current Flash release remains 10.6 - 10.8. I have had no issues updating to Flash 11.7.700.169 on OS X 10.7.5 or 10.8.3. This is on a 2010 MBP, and mid-2011 Mac mini, respectively.
On your 2012 machine, access the Flash preferences pane, select Advanced, and Delete All... The latter will pop a dialog and select the “Delete All Site Data and Settings option.” Now choose Delete Data. And, delete the current Flash installer.
Verify/Repair permissions in Disk Utility on your boot drive.
Move the contents of /Users/yourlogin/Library/Caches to Trash. Don't bother to empty Trash just yet.
Shutdown your Mac. When you press power again, also quickly press and hold the shift key until a grey horizontal progress bar appears. You have entered safe boot mode. At the login screen, and before you click on the right arrow to login, press and hold the shift key through the appearance of your desktop and menu bar.
Empty the Trash. Reboot normally.
Download a fresh Flash installer from Adobe, and exited from all browsers and system preferences, install it.
Do you now have a working Flash installation? If you do, perform the above procedures on your other Mac.

Adobe Player for Embedding installation failure

Multiple tries but only failure - have tried both the automatic update and also the standalone installer. Zero sucess. Since I have CS5 Master Collection hate to wate the better part of the day doing a clean re-install. Here is my most recent update log file.
Any suggestions on what I should try are welcome!

As an update to my previous post about the installation failure. I chatted with Adobe Customer Service but they were unable to help and told me to call tech support - last time I did that I was unable to resolve the problem after spending about 2 hours on the phone and they are only open during the week.
I solved the problem by:
1) Deactiviating CS5 Master Collection on my computer
2) Uninstalling the software from the control panel (I did not remove the serial number as I was planning on re-installing.
3) Downloading and running the Adobe CS5 Cleanup tool.
4) Reinstalling CS5 MC.
5) Downloading and installing all of the updates to bring the install up to date.
I am glad it is working as it should but really had better things to do with the 4-5 hours this took to do. Would be nice to have a tool to fix these types of problem without having to go thru the above especially considering the price the software costs...

Should i install adobe flash player on macbook pro with OSX

Just purchased my first macbook pro, I am thinking of installing Adobe Flash Player but wasnt sure if this is good idea or not. Any suggestions?

Sure - most of the content on YouTube - and much of the video content on the web - uses Flash technology.
Just make certain that you get it straight from Adobe -> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.
Happy computing!

What adobe flash does my imac with OSX 10.6.8 require?

My older iMac is running Snow Leopard and for some of the software I'm running, including Facebook, I need Adobe Flash. The current version of Flash will not mount on 10.6.8 so need an earlier version of Flash.. Which do I need and how can I get it? Adobe doesn't have it available. I can't upgrade to Maverick because many of my software graphic programs (like Freehand 10) cannot run on that architecture. Have tried to download Flash 11.2 but cannot find it. Does anyone have an answer?

See if this helps:

Hello I use a macbook pro with OSX 10.9.5. I am trying to download Flash player but keep getting this message "Install Adobe Flashplayer" is damaged and can't be opened.You should eject the disk image.Any ideas please?

You should make sure you do a complete uninstall of the flash player first and then install the latest FP14 version from this link - Use http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_osx.dm g
In order to do a complete uninstall - Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS

Sidecar installation with Adobe AIR 1.5.3

Hi all,
I'm having some difficulty with a sidecar installation with AIR 1.5.3. I've followed the steps in the runtime redistribution pdf (especially the section "Using the bundled runtime installer") but no luck yet. Here's my scenario:
1. Building the application with the 3.4 flex sdk (the distribution says that Adobe AIR 1.5.2 is included with the 3.4 version of the flex sdk)
2. Downloaded the AIR_Mac_installer_files.dmg from http://www.adobe.com/products/air/runtime_distribution3.html.
3. Renamed the installer to match my application's name.
4. Created a .airinstall.cfg file which included my application's name.
5. Double clicked on the installer file, but I don't get anything. No prompt for installing the AIR application.
This is running on MAC OSX 10.5.7. My "bundled runtime installer directory" looks like:
-rw-r--r-- 1 seanoshea staff 16 Dec 14 18:26 .airinstall.cfg
drwxr-xr-x 3 seanoshea staff 102 Dec 14 17:38 Eye-Fi-Center Installer.app
-rw-r--r-- 1 seanoshea staff 3171146 Dec 14 18:21 Eye-Fi-Center.air
Any ideas on where I'm going wrong here?
Sean

Hi there Ted,
In summary, there are three scenarios which I'm testing on each platform:
1. Installation of the application where the user does not have an AIR runtime previously installed.
2. Installation of the application where the user has an AIR runtime installed.
3. Installation of the application where the user has an AIR runtime installed and has a version of our application installed too (basically this is the update scenario)
I have a bootstrapper application which will be invoking the installer, so I understand I do not need to rename the Adobe AIR installer .exes or .app files.
On Windows XP, the command I'm invoking is shown in Picture 4.png. Basically, I'm invoking the AdobeAIRInstaller.exe file, passing a -silent flag and the name of the application I'm trying to install. This command works fine for scenarios 1 and 2 above. However, if I use this command when I try to update an existing application, I get this error:
Starting silent x1 install from file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/air/Eye-Fi%20Center.air
UI SWF load is complete
stateRunningAppInstaller: appinstaller -runtime C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\AIR1C.tmp -silent -withRuntime -url file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/air/Eye-Fi%20Center.air
App installer failed; exit code 9
begin quitting
The permissions problem I was running into in my previous post on Windows Vista is a false alarm. I wasn't running the cmd application with admin rights (despite the fact that I was logged into the OS as an admin). Running cmd.exe as an admin solved that issue.
So, I'm only stuck on the update scenario. Same thing happens on mac when I try to install on a system where Adobe AIR is already installed and the application is installed too. The .airinstall.log file shows:
Starting silent x1 install from file:///Users/seanoshea/Downloads/center-mac/Eye-Fi%20Center.air
UI SWF load is complete

App installer failed; exit code 9
begin quitting
The .airappinstall.log shows:

Hello Allan,

Shame on me and sorry for wasting your time, but i started with Mac 3 weeks before and have to leave windows-thinking !!! But i am convinced that mac is the better way ...

Can't install Flash Player on Mac with OSX Mavericks

Hi I have a MacBook Pro with OSX Mavericks and I have tried to install then uninstall the Flash Player and each time a box pops up and says the application quit unexpectely. I hvae tried this several times with no luck. Any suggestions?

RobbertBaas wrote:
On my MacBook Pro I have the same problem, it says that Flash isn't installed, but Flash is working perfectly fine in Chrome?
That's because Chrome has its own proprietary Flash Player embnedded by Google. There are instructions for a thorough "clean install" here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1343084 if the regular clean install won't work.

Shockwave player compatible with OSX 10.10.2?

Since updating to Yosemite, I am having probs with shockwave player. When on certain sites, i get the error "plugin failed." I have reinstalled adobe reader to the latest version, and when checking shockwave it says i have most current version. I have not found a place where i can uninstall shockwave, then reinstall. i also cant find it in my apps folder (shouldnt it be separate from Adobe Reader?) I have checked and it does this failure on the latest versions of Safari, Firefox and Chrome. I have also run disk utility and repairs.
If shockwave player is not compatible with Yosemite, could u let me know? I have spent HOURS on this prob, with no solution. Any help will be appreciated.

It sounds like you have an older AirPort Express.
Check the Model No on the side of the device. If you see A1084 or A1088 there, Mountain Lion 10.8.2 will not support these devices.
You might be able to use a workaround mentioned in this article:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1167965/mountain_lion_and_the_ancient_airport_ba se_station.html
This is not supported by Apple, but it does work for me. Unfortunately, there is no way to say whether it might work for you if you want to try it.
Other users may post with some other workarounds as well.

I need to know how to delete the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded it tonight and my computer doesn't have that little edit bar to work with so I can download the proper Adobe player and my internet has been screwed up ever since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I just want the old version of it back since I apparently can't download the Adobe stuff that is necessary to keep my computer safe from Hackers. It sure would have been nice to know there was an issue with the new Firefox Update BEFORE I uploaded it. I have Vista which is usually an issue with both Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run much of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.
