Cannot open adobe flash in safari

I have tried uninstalling flash, deleting safari.plist in library, re-installing flash v9 and still cannot
open adobe flash in safari. Anyone have other ideas to help resolve this issue?

These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5)
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. This: http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/index.cfm?email&NewsID=19845 may also interest you.)
In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
See also the very informative post from QuickTimeKirk dated Dec 3, 2007 in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1268489&tstart=0
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
The world should now be your oyster!
You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

  • Cannot open adobe files in safari

    Help ... I cannot open pdf files in safari. Any ideas how I can fix this please?

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    cannot open PDF files in safari.  It tells me first character is invalid - I have deleted plug-ins and reinstalled the program.

    HI..
    If you are using Adobe Reader ...
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
    Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    Then reinstall >  http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • Cannot open pdf documents in Safari

    I use Yahoo Mail and cannot open pdf attachments (via Safari) like I used too.  Safari attempts to open but stalls.  I have the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader installed App.

    Take the adobe stuff out of /Library/Internet Plug-ins.

    Rosetta can have a 2GB RAM "tax" to manage PowerPC code as well as how that affects performance.
    I think real world performance shows both statements to be wrong; consider this:
    If that were the case, how come Apple does not include that information in its Snow Leopard installation requirements, since Rosetta is an optional install?
    Also, running a PowerPC app on an 2011 i7 Mac with Snow Leopard will run faster than running that PowerPC app on a PowerPC Mac.

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • I just downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CS6. And cannot open adobe eps files ?

            I have installed Photoshop CS6 and cannot open adobe eps files? any Ideas

    Hi there
    When you say that you can't open eps files, are you getting an error message?
    Photoshop CS6 has the ability to open both .eps and .ai files. However, opening by going to File > Open... will rasterize the image - meaning that it is no long a vector so you can't scale it up and down without losing quality. To open an .eps or .ai file in Photoshop and maintain its vector capabilities, try the following:
    Create a new canvas in Photoshop. Then, go to File > Place...
    After selecting your file from the Place dialog box, your image will be placed into your canvas. Resize accordingly, and then hit Enter on your keyboard.
    The image you just placed is a Smart Object, meaning that it has retained its vector capabilities and can be resized without losing image quality. If you ever need to rasterized this image, just right click on the layer and select Rasterize Layer.
    If you are still having trouble, please post here again so that we can provide additional assistance.
    Cheers!

  • Cannot open Adobe Photo Elements 10 on my PC

    I cannot open Adobe Photo Elments 10 software on my PC.  I purchased the software from a local Best Buy retailer about one year ago and registered the product serial number with Adobe.  I also established an Adobe User ID and Password.  I paid for this product with my hard earned money and now I cannot open the program on my personal computer after having been able to do so in the past.  This is extremely poor customer service on the part of Adobe!!!   What are you going to do now to correct this problem or make a full refund to me?!
    Also, what is the Adobe help desk telephone number?  This company ought to display their customer help desk telephone number, email address and chat line prominently on their website if they are serious about good customer service.
    I am waiting now very impatiently!
    If I don't receive a respond promptly I will be forced to file a formal complain with the Fairfax County Department of Consumer Affairs!

    Hi Dean,
    I'm glad you got it all worked out. Here are two things that might help in the future with installation issues and serial numbers/activation issues:
    If you have activation problems try, here -- http://www.adobe.com/products/activation/
    There is an option to click a chat button on that page.
    If you find you have installation issues, you might want to check the Adobe user forum called download, install and setup. It can be found at:

    Best regards,
    Pattie

  • Cannot open adobe reader at all

    I cannot open Adobe reader, even the icon on my desktop I mean. I have windows 7 and I could not open PDF file on web either. It will have a full blue bar telling me it is fully downloaded but the actual content never shows up. I tried uninstall and install for more than five times. Anyone could help?

    Sorry, it is not quite clear to me if you have Adobe Reader actually installed or not.
    I suggest that you uninstall it (again), then try installing with the full installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
