Difficulty installing adobe flash player on macbook air os yosemite

Hi.
I recently bought a Macbook Air, which runs OS Yosemite, and I have tried to install Adobe Flash Player on it. I got to the part where it is installing, and then it says "Please close Safari". I did that, then clicked "Retry". It still said "Please close Safari". I waited a few minutes, and then clicked "Retry" again. Same result. Can anyone help me?

Could you first try the steps outlined in this FAQ:
How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
If that doesn't help, please try this installer:
PKG Installer

  • Install Adobe Flash Player on MacBook Air

    I am trying to install Adobe Flash Player on MacBook Air and it stops at 98% stating that it needs to to close Safari browser, I close it and still it does not fully install it. 

    You need to close the Safari process, not only the browser window.
    If you don't know how to do that, restart your Mac, then run the downloaded installer before doing anything else.

    Hey, I'm trying to install Adobe Flash on my Macbook Air. At a certain point it asks for my password but it doesn't take it. So I cannot continue installment. I have reset my password already. Still the same problem. How can I continue to install when it keeps asking for a password it doesn't recognize over and over again? How many times do I have to reset it then? Advice please

    You have to provide your computer's administrator password in order to install Flash Player.

  • Should i install adobe flash player on macbook pro with OSX

    Just purchased my first macbook pro, I am thinking of installing Adobe Flash Player but wasnt sure if this is good idea or not. Any suggestions?

    Sure - most of the content on YouTube - and much of the video content on the web - uses Flash technology.
    Just make certain that you get it straight from Adobe -> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.
    Happy computing!

  • Installing adobe flash player to MacBook pro

    I am trying to install adobe flash player on a brand new Mac book Pro but it isn't downloading.

    Or here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Note that either link will get you a .dmg file downloaded onto your Mac. Double click to open. Inside is the installer program itself, which you must run and follow its instructions to complete the Flash installation.

  • Should I install Adobe Flash on my MacBook Air?

    Kind of afraid to install Adobe Flash on my new MacBook Air after the initial press regarding decreased battery life? Is there an optimized version for the Air? What are the Pros & Cons?

    The latest 10.3 version of Flash works OK.  Although it is less resource intensive you will still experience shortened battery life when watching Flash videos, but not as bad as older versions.  You will find it at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • How to install Adobe flash-player on Macbook mid 2007

    as I press "INSTALL" button (flash-player 11.2) nothing happens. I know that my computer does not match requirements of 11.2 version, but please let me know if there is a suitable solution for my case.

    If that requirement is significant that these flash players require 128MB of vram then I suppose this whole thing is an academic exercise with you having only 64MB.  Perhaps you can hunt down a version 10.x of the Adobe Flash installer (not sure where) but again whether that will work with lion is yet another question.  So you may be between a rock and a hard place trying to use flash with lion.
    I believe Chrome has flash support buillt in so maybe you should try that when needing to play flash videos.

  • Problem Installing Adobe Flash Player on Macbook Pro

    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.9.5 and I am trying to install the latest version of adobe flash player Version 16.0.0.235. The flash player shows up in my downloads, but the icon is different that what it is supposed to look like. When I double click on the download, a text file appears and I can only open the download through "Text Edit". I have tried everything and I can't figure out why this is happening. I have attached a picture of what the download looks like on my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • Problem Installing Adobe Flash Player for Mac Air (Yosemite)

    I got a message saying my Adobe Flash Player was out of date. This seemed strange because I'd been accessing videos within the last hour with no problems. I went ahead and opened the Mac version installer downloaded of the Adobe site. The install started and after inputting an Admin password, the download reached 25% almost immediately. Unfortunately, it's been stuck at 25% since then. I've tried starting over, deleting the download and re-downloading the update with no success. I've also temporarily disabled my AdBlock and AdBlock Plus. I tried to uninstall AFP so I could start over but the box that's supposed to tell me what uninstaller version to download has an error message saying I need to update AFP.
    How can I fix this?
    Edit: I thought maybe I was downloading an AFP for an earlier OS (I'm running 10.10.2). I made sure to download the latest version of AFP for Mac possible. The install is now stuck at 30%. (Just to be clear, I downloaded the install package with no problem - the issue is with the install program itself pausing at 30%.)
    Edit 2: I figured out which uninstall package I needed (using this page: Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS) but upon reinstalling AFP, it's stuck again at 25% of download.
    Edit 3: The message "Connection failed. Trying to reconnect" has appeared, followed quickly by "connection failed". Guess I'll try again.

    I've double-checked to make sure that I've selected "Allow Internet Plug-ins" under Safari>Preferences>Security. I've read in other threads that this is one possible solution but it isn't useful to me since I've uninstalled AFP and but I've been unable to reinstall it.
    Edit: I'm not sure if Youtube is supported by a different software package but I can watch any videos on that site with no problem.
