Can't install Shockwave 12.1 on OS X 10.10

I downloaded Shockwave Player 12.1 but when I go to install it it asks "How do you want to install this software?" and it gives me the option of selecting my Mac drive but then gives me an error that says "Adobe Shockwave Player 12.1 can't be installed on this disk. Adobe Shockwave not supported on this OS version." But when I downloaded from the Adobe website I selected Mac OS X and the Shockwave 12.1.3.153 full version for OSX 10.6 and above. I have OS X Yosemite Version 10.10

Why can't I find DirectorShockwave.plugin in the expanded .pkg? It's nowhere to be seen.
All I have is:
/shockwave12.pkg
/shockwave12.pkg/Bom
/shockwave12.pkg/PackageInfo
/shockwave12.pkg/Payload
/shockwave12.pkg/Scripts/
/shockwave12.pkg/Scripts/preinstall

This whole thing started when I went to shockwave.com and wanted to play some of their games. It saidI needed to install shockwave. I uninstalled an old version as recommended then installed a new one. Well I should say tried to! I get a screen that asks permission to d/l I told it ok twice then I get nothing ..... nothing happens it looks like it's going to d/l but nothing. I think well maybe something is there and go look to uninstall again but there is nothing there for shockwave. I have flashplayer working fine but can't d/l shockwave.. weird... can someone plz help? I don't have $39 to tech help on here. Thank you for your time!

What operating system; what browser?
Try downloading the installer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/#sp

I tried everything and still can't install-is there an executable?

I read all the posts in the shockwave forum and tried every
suggestion and it won't install. First, it was an endless loop of
always asking me to accept the active X control, click on the gold
bar, etc, back and forth. I tried accepting all cookies, turning
off my firewall, changing my security settings to downright
dangerous, and now there is nothing on the download page but that
blank box and I get one prompt to run an active x control and then
nothing. My time settings are correct, I uninstalled the old
version and now I have no shockwave at all, I have tried
everything! The only thing I haven't tried is uninstalling Flash
because I'm afraid if I do that I won't be able to reinstall that
either. When I go to the support page there is a link to download
an executable file but that just takes you back to the original
installation page and the same problems.
Please help me if you can! I'm getting gray hairs over this.
I know I always have problems installing shockwave when the new
version comes out but I can never remember how to do it. Why don't
you just put a link to a file you can download to your desktop and
install? Shockwave support team, are you there? I can't even figure
out how to contact Adobe support to get help other than this
forum.

Thank you very much for your reply. I really appreciate it. I
found the link you just posted by doing a google search for "I
can't install Shockwave". When I clicked on your link it didn't
work for me but it looks like the same thing. Here it is again for
anyone else:

Are the links wrong on the download page or something?

I can't install flash player at all, not matter what browser is in !

Hi
I have this annoying problem with my Flash Player, I can't install it no matter what i browser it is in. When eg. I have to play a video from youtube, I can't use IE (Internet Explorer) to play it in, but in Googles Chrome and in Mozillas Firefox, there it works without any problem.
Another problem is also when I am going into www.adobe.com in IE, then it says - For the complete experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser. Thank you! , the script is active in the internet settings, I have check, but it is still not working.
If I uninstall Flash Player totally, and I would like to installed it again, I can't do it,, not matter what browser, it just stops, when iI try to install it . There is no problem installing or updating, Air, Shockwave. In this matter Flash Player will not cooperate at all, it will not let we installed it at all.
New I have tryed is that I installed the new flash player 16 demo, there were no problem in the installation, but it will still work in IE. It still says - For the complete experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser. Thank you! on www.adobe.com and it still not works on youtube.com. The script is active in the internet settings, I have check, but it is still not working.
I hope anymore is interresting in helping me in this annoying problem !
Regards
Peter

It have never been enabled while I have had this issue ! Just try again to install it again, still same problem. It is almost like it comes to some kind of a time out, and then it just stops try to install ! Stranges

Can¡t install a google toolbar because it says it's incompatible

I can not install the google bar because it says it is incompatible with the version I have of Firefox: 8.01

Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer versions. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

I can't install newer Safari or others...

My Safari is v. 3.0.3. When I click .pdf files on the web pages, mostly the browser crashes and accidently closed. And video (I think flash movie) from cnn.com is not working.
I tried to install newer Safari, I have enough hard space, about more than 40gb, but the installer said it can not install. I found there was same problem to install some other software.
What do I need to do to fix?
Thanks in advance for help!

Hi there:
If your computer system and update step is as indicated in
the signature line of your post, you will have to update the
Mac OS X system to 10.4.11 or Later for Safari 3.1.2 and
several other software updates to install and work there.
More recent versions of flash player and other software
may be required, in addition to a system update to 10.4.11.
Adobe has several players for flash and others; and a
later java version should be available from Apple directly.
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/
A newer java and other updates would likely appear if the
Tiger system were upgrade to 10.4.11, disk permissions
repaired, then even Software Updates ran to see what is
available. At times, singular downloads from Support's
Download page of softare (standalone installers) is best.
Instead of trying to run a long list of software updates
which the more automated Software Update may supply.
From the Safari 3.1.2 Downloads page:
"Macintosh Requirements *Any Mac running Mac OS X
Leopard 10.5.4 or Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 (or higher)."
Most of the Tiger updates and new browsers, etc for OS X
are set up for the last version of 10.4.(11) with no surprise.
Be sure to use Disk Utility's 'repair disk permissions' before
and after software and security updates. It also does not
hurt to start the computer up in SafeBoot and then run the
Disk Utility's 'repair disk permissions' since a second type
of system check and repair is done, then restart normally.
Good luck & happy computing!

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.
Monika

Can't install/uninstall Flash Player?

Having some serious difficulty here with Flash. Firstly whenever I open a busy webpage that's running flash, my browser will immidiately crash (no rhyme intended)
I've been scouring the FAQ's as well as Google to find a solution and so far the majority of responses have been something along the lines of "uninstall it and then reinstall it". So I've tried doing that, only problem is that the install/uninstall manager also keeps crashing for me. So essentially I can't install, I can't uninstall.. and I can't currently view pages with copious amounts of flash (for more than a couple of seconds anyways) without it crashing.
Was really hoping somebody could help me, though I'm sure you'll need some information from me before you can give me an answer, so rather than filling up this whole discussion with information you may or may not need, but if you ask for some specific things I'll be sure to reply quickly
P.S sorry there is little to none formatting - not particuarly in the mood to make things look pretty at the moment

Flash Player plug-in not enabled can also be a reason.
In Firefox, could you please check if Flash Player pug-in is enabled? Click Tools > Add-ons > Plugins.
Do you see Shockwave Flash?
Are you downloading Flash Player from the Adobe site? http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Could you please do the following:
Right-click the downloaded file > Show Package Contents.
Go to the Content > Resource folder and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file.

Help cant install shockwave

i want to install shockwave player but i have vista i try to
instal on the site and the videos plays with install complete but
it wasnt installed

Your machine is called "Lombard". Its a good machine. You should get more memory, though.
1. the mac os x 10.2.8, wat doe this mean, and is it good.Also can i update it to a new edition for free?and how
Your OS is adequate, but you would benefit from upgrading to 10.3.9, which is the highest your machine natively supports. Any 10.3 will do, as you can update from there through Apple for free. However, you will need the OS install on CDs, as you don't have a DVD-ROM.
2. This is the real problem. Everytime i wna install something it wont work.For example, i downloaded flashplayer installation so i can install it. When it finished dowloading to my desktop i clicked on it to install it. When i did so, a window poped up and said that there is no default application specified to open this document. And then on the botom it says choose application. And i dont know wat application im supposed to choose to instal flashplayer. This hapapens to everything i want to install like limewire and shockwave. I cant install anything! So plz help me solve this problem.
Make sure you are downloading Mac programs (i.e.) no .exe files. Make sure the programs support your OS. As pointed out, you may be lacking the installer, which should be located in your Utilities folder.

How can I stop Shockwave Flash from crashing?

For the last few days I have been experiencing a problem viewing videos on web pages. The error message "The following plug-in has crashed: Shockwave Flash" appears across the top of the page and all the videos are black with a white logo in the middle. This is an intermittent problem throughout the day - so sometimes I can watch a video and other times not. Needless to say this is very frustrating.
I have the latest XP version and also the latest version of Google Chrome. Today I unistalled all Adobe programs (problem still continued) and then reinstalled them - so they are all the latest versions.
I have browsed through all the help pages and tried some of the suggestions - but the problem still persists.
To be honest, I had never even heard of ShockWave Flash until Friday last week when this first started happening!!
Does anyone have an answer for me..... please?

Hello all,
I understand the frustration and we hear you loud and clear. We are actively working on this problem with Google and hope to have this resolved soon. For those that are crashing, could you navigate to the following, windows only, page in Chrome: about:conflicts
Once there, look to see if you have an software entry with the name "Rooks/Dolomite" If so, you might require an update to Trusteer's Rapport. Here's more info from Trusteer:
Dear Rapport users,
Thank you all for your feedback about our Beta version, regarding the Google Chrome Plug-in crashes.
It indeed seems we have successfully fixed the issue and so we have now finished uploading a stable version of the software that contains the fix you have been using.
This version is now available for download in the following link:
http://download.trusteer.com/Gcur4Wtnu/RapportSetup.exe
You do not need to uninstall the current version, you can simply install this version over the existing one.
Please make sure to restart your computer after the installation process is completed.
Sincerely,
Nitsan Bleiberg
Head of Technical Support
Trusteer
Additional details can be found on the following Google Chrome thread (see page 10): http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=0d782f19a7a1a9ec&hl=en
Another thing to note, after reading through that thread it appears that the latest Chrome beta might also be helping some users out. It's something to consider trying to if you're finding Chrome release is to unstable to use properly.
Thanks,
Chris

Fail to install shockwave player

For some reason I can't seem to be able to install shockwave player. I'm running on a proxy server, is this maybe the reason?
many thanks

Did you try downloading and running the full installer?

Installing Shockwave Flash

I downloaded the correct file. Can someone tell me how to install it with Mozilla 1.3.1 - ?

Strange. From what I can remember when I had OS 9.1, when installing Shockwave Flash it automatically flashed an alert to ask me which browser I wanted it installed. The installer window listed all the browsers I had installed & all I did was pick which browser I wanted Shockwave Flash to go to.
I never "manually" placed the plug-in. The installer did all the work.
After you downloaded SWF, did you click on the "icon" to activate the installer?
Regarding rebuilding your desktop:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=10182 Rebuilding Desktop File and Icon Recovery.
Or you can use Techtool Lite or Trash*Desktop (TD may delete Finder comments )to rebuild your desktop w/extensions off. Does a better job than manually & you avoid all the finger gymnatics. You just have to hold down the shift key to shut off extensions.
Restart to turn the extensions back on again.
If you are still having problems after doing the above, I suggest that you start a new topic so that your issue can receive more focused attention.
