Can't download flash player - 'Disk image not recognized'

MAC OS X
10.6.8
2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
I'm trying to download and install the lastest adobe flash player but having a little problem. It downloads without any problem but when I come to double click it it comes up with the following warning/error message.
The following disk images couldn't be opened. Reason - Not Recognized
I have no idea why this has suddenly come up.
I've complete uninstalled Adobe flash player and tried to reinstall it but it still hasn't worked.
I've also tried to open the 'install_flash_player_osx.dmg' file in Disk Utility but it says its 'Unable to attach'. One thing I have noticed is that the Disk write status is - Not mounted, read only
I'm not sure what this means. If someone could help me out I would appricate it very much.

Not certain what other issue may be the cause of the symptom(s) you've stated above, but there is a link to try & get an Adobe flash player plugin for Snow Leopard 10.6.8 through this page. Also note the comments by users there who relate experience, and an apparent link to a recent beta version(?)

While other system maintenance may need to be done for the computer to see any update correctly, there also is a chance the file may not be the proper one. Several exist at the Adobe site, some are not compatible.
Good luck & happy computing!

  • Can't install flash player - disk space not enough

    I have 11 partitions (drive letters). Which one I should check? System partition, programs partition, tmp partition or profile partition? Games partitions maybe or documents?
    This stupid useless message can't help me to solve the problem at all.

    That message may be misleading; try these installers:
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    If you still get an error, please post the contents of the FlashInstall.log file in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash

    You can't.
    Android (Google) dropped all support for Flash last summer. The reason is the same one Apple gave seven years ago when they released iOS: Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it kills batteries... as well as shortening the battery life in mobile devices.
    Android recommends using either "Dolphin" or Puffin" as your browser (BOTH are free in the GooglePlay store). They use "server side rendering" of Flash content to reduce the load on your Android device.

  • I can't download flash player on my MacBook!!

    I'm trying to download flash player on my Mac but when following the instructions of 'locate the Adobe Reader Installer file, named like “AdobeReaderInstaller[xxx].dmg”. and double click' nothing happens! An icon is added to my home screen but no matter what I do i can't get it to install like it says it should! Help please!!

    Im not too sure!! This is what the page I'm wanting to use but can't as I haven't got what ever I need says! I have now tried both of those links and the same problems are occurring. I do what I am instructed to do but when double clicking the download folder for it, the screen I know i need to continue appears but then goes before anything loads. Not sure if you are following what i mean so second picture is what help page says to do and i cannot get to step 2.

  • Can't download Flash Player in Firefox

    Hi All!
    I bought a new laptop 2 wks ago, use Firefox as my Browser and am unable to download Flash Player (have managed to in IE).
    I've been in touch with Acer (laptop manufacturers) and they recommend that I perform a system recovery on the machine.
    Surely there is an easier way.........?

    Hi
    Thanks for the speedy reply.  If I want to use YouTube for example, I get the message -
    Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player
    I then go to the link which takes me to Adobe Flash Player download, I Agee and Install Now, choose to Save File,
    but then nothing happens.  Do I need to take Acer's advice?
    Thanks
