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.

Hello

PS, I followed the Tech Notes on troubleshooting installation of flash player for mac intel computers, to the letter, but no change!
Thank you

    When I try and install flash player I can run the installer program, i click on agree to terms and conditions which highlights the install button.  I then can't seem to get anything to happen by clicking on the 'install' button.  I have tried re downloading and nothing changes.  All browser windows are closed.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • I can't install Flash Player in Mac

    Hi¡¡ I Tried around 30 times and i tried every solutions that appear in web (uninstall previous version, etc)
    I can´t install Flash Player in my Mac. Ii is 10.7.5 OSx, Safari 6.1.5
    When I load the install program, it stop when the bar is in 0%, then I have to force exit because the program doesn't response…..
    Help me, please¡¡¡

    Hello,
    We apologize for the installation issues you are encountering.  Unfortunately, we have not been able to reproduce these installation issues using the online installer.  The offline installer Pat provided a link should work fine.  If you'd like to help us troubleshoot the installation issues with the online installer, and are comfortable working in the Terminal app we'd appreciate it if you could provide us with the install log file for the online installer.  If so, please do the following:
    Download the installer  from get.adobe.com/flashplayer and save it to the desktop
    Mount the DMG (double-click the file) and copy the .app file to a local folder (e.g. desktop)
    Open LaunchPad and in the top search window type Terminal, click the app icon to open the Terminal application
    In Terminal, change directories to where the .app is saved to (step 2), type: cd <location to file in step 2>
    e.g. If the extracted .app file is on the desktop, type: cd /Users/labuser/Desktop
    At the prompt, type: ./Install\Adobe\ Flash\ Player.app/Contents/MacOS/Install\Adobe\ Flash\ Player -debug - file
    Go back to back to the location where the .app is saved to (step 2)
    Right-click on the app and select Show Package Contents
    In the window that displays, navigate to Contents/MacOS
    Obtain the host.develop.log file.
    Post the contents of the host.develop.log file here in your response, or share the file following the How to share a document instructions.
    Thank you in advance.

  • 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 Without Admin Password

    I've already posted about this, but I didn't get a meaningful answer, and another user who posted with the exact same issue was also unanswered.
    My question is very simple: How do I install Flash Player on a Mac without an admin password? The downloadable installer demands one before it will do anything. When I click "show package contents" and extract the Flash installer package, open it up manually, and unzip the archive inside it, I get an unusable "Flash Player.plugin.lzma" file.
    I need a way to decompress the Flash Player.plugin.lzma file.
    OR
    I need a link to download the Flash Player plugin, as in the actual "Flash Player.plugin" file, and NOT an installer app, which the main download link offers.
    OR
    An installer program that can extract and install the Flash Player file into ~/Library/Internet Plugins and do so WITHOUT demanding an admin password.

    This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
    If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt.  If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
    If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.
    If you're still stumped, you may need to reset the password on your Mac:

  • 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?

    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.

  • Can't install Flash player on Airbook OSX 10.5.8

    Hours of trying--installation stalls, says to turn off Safari but it's already off, says it's installed and finalized but isn't, says it's encountered an error and to try again.  This is very frustrating.  I see from other questions on this topic that this is a common problem.  Is it me, or Adobe?  Or something else entirely?  Or a conspiracy against me by the wireless universe?

    Download this zip file if you haven't already:
    Flash Player 10.3.183.90
    Inside that should be a few folders. One is named "10_3_r183_90".
    Inside that folder is a flashplayer_10_3r183_90_mac_intel.dmg
    Double click that and it will mount on your desktop, and open a window with the installer.
    Right click the installer and choose "Show Package Contents"
    Go to: Contents/Resources and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file
    The installer will open, ask for your Admin password, and it will install.
    That's the install part.
    Trouble is, a lot of websites won't work with Flash Player 10 anymore. -Bad news.
    The good news is: because you have an Intel Mac, you can upgrade to OS 10.6 and you'll be able to run a LOT of stuff that 10.5 won't handle.
    Apple has it for $19.99, and they ship free. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

  • Can not install flash player on Mac

    I was informed by shutter fly that I needed to update flash player. After a couple of hours and several different attempts I was unsuccessful. I have since uninstalled flash player and tried to re-install to no avail. I am running OSX 10.9.5 and safari 7.0.6. When I run the regular install from website I click on the install now tab (step 1 of 3) and then am taken to another page that says initializing with a long blue bar (step 2 of 3). Very briefly am I then presented  with some instructions to go to download folder, etc. I have tried this probably 50 times and can never read the instructions fast enough. It then takes me to a black screen. I have also tried the offline option and it also takes me to a black screen. I have checked my download folder and there is never anything in there related to flash player. Please help!!
