Can't install Flash Player 10 on my computer

I can download the flash player 10 fine, but when I try to
install it, I keep ending up with an error message like:
"error can't copy
C:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32.dll" or something like
that.....
I need help!

Well this could happen for any number of reasons.
It's a workaround, but you could try the download in this
link
http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/downloads.html
Technically that's the update for the Flash authoring tool,
but if you unzip it then you'll have a full players folder that you
can install. If you're stuck after that point then open a support
case.
Flash Player technical support is available via webcase only
at:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/
There is no phone support for Flash Player.

  • I can't install flash player because my computer is an old timer! help!

    My boss's computer is currently running 10.4.11 with a Power PC G5 (whatever that means ) and she has no flash player on it. It is making me crazy! In the archived section it says that a lot of them are for testing only. I just need to get a flash player on this computer STAT so I can use the web. Please help! I am not good at understanding the tech side of a MAC

  • I can't install Flash Player on Mac, because of Dashboard Client

    I can't install Flash Player on my Macbook Pro OS X Mountain Lion, because of error it keep showing me, that my Dashboard Client is running and i need to close it.

    Unfortunately, going through all the widgets, closing them, quitting the dashboard, installing Adobe whatever, then reinstalling all the widgets is a complete PITA.
    There is a widget called Dashquit 3.0 which is supposed to turn dashboard off. When I tried it with 10.9.3, It quit dashboard, but dashboard started back up immediately, preventing the Adobe install. I then looked at other answers which recommended turning the dashboard process off using Activity Monitor. Same results - using either Quit or Force Quit, dashboard stopped for a millisecond then restarted.
    The thing that finally worked for me after all of this was to restart the computer. I shut down Safari before restarting so that it would not appear immediately on restart. As soon as I was able to after the restart, I opened the Adobe .dmg file and started the install process. It finally installed without any further intervention.
    Adobe, it sure would be nice if your installer-writers were to ignore the Dashboard Client since it doesn't use Flash as far as I know, and it would be even more convenient if the installer shut down Safari or Chrome or Firefox or other browsers automatically with permission from the user. It sure would make things a lot easier. Other installers do this routinely, so why can't you?

  • Can't install flash player on Mac OSX version 10.4.11

    Hello
    I've spent the morning trying to do this and still no joy. I had flash player already and when trying to use the 4oD website it asked me to download or upgrade flashplayer. I did, the correct version according to my mac version. All goes well and the window message says 'installed successfully'.The only thing I find strange is that just before this message appears I hear the sound of items being put in the 'trash' ... and there they are. Other times the message error -1409 appears. The only icon that appears is the Flash player installer.pkg so not sure whether the application was installed or just the installer!  All web searches prompt me to download the missing plug in, both in safari and mozilla. Java script is definitely enabled on both browsers.
    I have use the uninstall package three times, restarted the computer, downloaded flash player again but no change.
    Forgive my limited use of jargon - this doesn't make any sense to me but I've just spent 3 hours following instructions to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can't install Flash Player (stupid ActiveX!)

    I can't install Flash Player or Macromedia Player on my
    computer. The problem came out of nowhere. We seem to have no
    viruses. We go to the adobe site to install it, but after we click
    the install button, a little message shows up, asking to install
    it, and then something about ACTIVEX. I'll go more into detail if
    you think you know what the problem is. Help as soon as possible.
    Thank you! Lacey

    I couldn't resist being the first to reply to your post...
    and let me warn you now: You may get a bunch of nasty comments from
    others that forgot what it was like to learn the ins-and-outs of
    computers....
    What you described happening in your post is 100% NORMAL.
    After you click that INSTALL button, your Internet Browser (I'm
    assuming Internet Explorer) SHOULD ALWAYS confirm that you trust
    the person/site/company that is about to install software on your
    computer... that "little message" you saw is your confirmation that
    you REALLY want this installed.... if so, you will click that
    "little message" and then click "Install ActiveX control"
    (sometimes this same thing will occur on various websites but
    instead you will see a "little message" about an ADD-ON...
    generally speaking, its the same thing).
    Basically, ActiveX & Add-on's are programs that work with
    other programs already installed on your computer; in this case
    Adobe Flash Player working with your internet browser.
    The whole reason behind the that "little message" is to
    prevent websites from installing programs on your computer without
    you knowing it.... you don't always have to click an "Install"
    button for a website to attempt to send you a program! Makesure
    when you see that message you know exactly what your installing and
    WHY. There are alot of sites out there that will try to install
    ActiveX/Add-on's that jepordize your entire computer (viruses,
    spyware, keyloggers, etc.).
    So go ahead... click install and then click install
    ActiveX... this site can be trusted to install. :)

    how can i install flash player for window 8.1(64 bit) on my laptop?

    For Internet Explorer, you don't. Microsoft has already done it.
    For Firefox, Opera or Safari, use the Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    For Chrome, you don't need to wither because Google puts it in the browser.

  • I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8

    I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8, it supposedly downloads but then I can't find it, when I search for flash player in downloads in the finder, I get three choices:
    1. Adobe flash player install manager:  when I click on this, the options are either to quit or uninstall.
    2. Flash Player:  when I click on this, it shows me Flash Player in the finder, when I click on that, it leads me to install it again.
    3. Install Adobe Flash Player: just taked me back to install it again.
    But it never seems to install or open.
    Any help would be great, thanks!!

  • Can't install Flash player on mac os 10.8.4

    I can't install Flash player on mac os 10.8.4 (Safari). The adobe help tells me I've installed version 11.8.800.94 - but the player is nowhere to be found...

    Download the offline installer here: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
    If it won't download directly, right click and "Save as"
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
    Trash the Flash Player.plugin file from there
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe
    Trash the Flash Player folder (the whole folder)
    Empty the trash
    Reboot
    Mount the DMG and run the installer.
    BEFORE opening any Flash content in Safari, open Safari>Preferences, and check the Security tab to make sure "Allow all other plugins" is checked.

  • Can't install Flash Player 12 on Apple Macbook Pro w/  2.6 GHz Intel i5 proc. Adobe needs to fix it

    Can't install Flash Player 12 via Safari on my Apple Macbook Pro 13" w/  2.6 GHz Intel i5 processor. Error message says "User does not have sufficient privileges." I've worked w/ Apple Tech Support, tried various fixes, no change-it's not a setting on the Macbook.  I've emailed Adobe requesting a fix. Any suggestions?

    Adobe can't fix user permissions on your MacBook... and "User does not have sufficient privileges" comes from your OS, on your MacBook, NOT the installer.
    Have you tried a "Clean Install"? (offline - NOT using Safari) How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
    or a COCOA install:
    Right click the installer and choose "Show Package Contents"

  • I can't install flash player on MAC

    I can't install flash player on MAC
    give me error after program download on MAC as me to put my user ID and password
    I try to put but always give me error

    @douglasbell2
    The dialog window requesting the password is an OS dialog window, it is not a Flash Player window.  I understand the confusion, but we can't modify a system dialog window with additional information.
    @jongenelen
    If you're system does not have a password, you should be able to continue the installation with out it.  Ignore the password field and click the OK button.  If your system does have a password and you don't recall what it is, I recommend Googling something like "reset lost os x password".  This search returns many results, and some vary depending on the OS version.
