Download of last version of Flash player stops at 30%. Any help available ?

OS X 10.10.2
Safari 8.0.3
Flash player version installed: 16.0.0.296
Download of installation file "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_16_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg" done without any problem
After double clicking on the Install icon, the download starts but stops at 30%.
No change in two hours.
I tried to stop the installation but it was impossible.
The icon of the install program remains in the dock, impossible to quit.
It even prevent me to restart my computer.
I did a manual stop and tried again, starting from scratch (download of dmg file ans so on)
Same blocked situation.
This problem never occurred before.
I am not a computer specialist, just a genuine user.

I just figured this out on my own as no one at Adobe will release a playbook that gives proper instructions on this issue. If you are having issues with the application not installing all of the way, you have a permission issue on the the partition where your Yosemite OS is installed. Here is how you fix the issue that you are experiencing:
Open Disk Utility (press Command and the Space Bar, then type disk utility)
Locate your disk and the partition where your OS installed.
Select First Aid (in the right pane next to Erase and Restore)
Locate the button "Verify Disk Permissions" and click on it.
Wait, get some coffee and relax, this will all be over soon
When Verify Disk Permissions is complete, click on the button "Repair Disk Permissions"
Now grab breakfast, lunch or dinner and tell someone you love that you love them.
After your disk permissions have been repaired, close out Disk Utility
Open the FlashPlayer installation file and run the installation again.
Finally, whew... Enjoy your entertainment fare. You made it across the schism that Adobe loves to plague their loyal patrons with.
I hope this helps someone. Let me know if it worked or didn't; I am curious if you all will see the same success that I have realized.
Cheers & Many Regards,
Geoff

Some MacBook Pro versions cannot be upgraded past 10.6.8; others are maxed out at 10.7.5. newer models can go all the way to 10.10. So it is important to know exactly what version you have--there may be close to 40 variants produced since the MB made its debut in 2006.
You can safely give us a snapshot of your model and its current config that will allow us to deternmmine your model and its upgrade potential, plus show it you have any software that may impede any upgrades. Please download and install this free utility:

Run the program and click the "Copy report to clipboard" button when it displays the results. Then return here and paste the report into a response to your initial post. It can often show if any harmful files/programs are dragging down your performance.
Remember that, on leaving OS10.6.8, you lose the ability to run older softare written for older PowerPC Macs (yours in Intel-based). Programs such as Office 2004 will no longer work (min of Office 2008 needed to work on newer OS versions), and AppleWorks will stop working completely

How do i download a newer version of Flash player. I have tried 10 times, it says complete..however

How do I download a new version of flash player. I have tried 10 times, each time it says complete. However when I need it on a site, it says I don't have it???????? Thank you

Hello,
I have a similar problem than sam6sam had except that I'm on Safari. After the Mountain Lion security update I did last Friday, I had to update Flash. I installed .149, deinstalled, restarted, reinstalled .149 about 2 dozens times and it didn't work. Yesterday I saw that you had .167 and thought "finally they will have fixed this issue". After doing the same deinstall restart and install routine another dozen time, I give up!
I've followed all the instructions on this page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.html
and this page:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5067997#5067997
and this page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
and still nothing.
It looks like it's installed. When I go into System Preference Flash Player shows "Plug-in version 11.6.602.167 is installed.", yet when I want to see a flash video it tells me that I don't have the software and need to install it. My Safari Preferences allow for Pop-up and Enable Plug-in. My "open 'safe' files after downloading" is clicked.
I've search all of Adobe, Apple and other geeky website's "help" area, and nothing I tried worked, including the "sudo" commands in the terminal (the answer to this one is "command not found").
I'm really frustrated by this. There is certainly something that I overlooked, but I cannot figure it out. Help!

I downloaded the latest version of flash player, not working?

I just got my computer back from being fixed and I'm redownloading everything I need.
I have a Mac OS X Version 10.7.5 and i downloaded the latest version of flash player for it. It appears to be installed because there's a window opens up saying "Thank you, enjoy flash player." or something like that after I have downloaded the flash player.
I've tried several times and I STILL can't watch videos or do things that require flash player.
I went to my system preferences, clicked on Flash Player and went to the advanced bar, and it says "Plug-in version 11.9.900.117 is installed."
However, when i go to this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
And I click the "Check Now" button to see if flash player has been installed onto my computer, it says:
"Sorry, Flash Player is either not installed or not enabled.
Please go to step 2."
And so I did and downloaded it AGAIN. I only saw the same thing after i reloaded the page and tried again.
I do not have an anti-virus program, so it can't be that.
Is the flash player enabled?
How do I check if it's enabled/enable it?

It's usually in your browser's Tools section.

For the past week, I am unable to view videos. The page comes up with this comment: "Blocked plug-in" and it suggests that I download the latest version of Flash player. I have downloaded that and still get the same comment. Please help.

I have an iMac11.2 and am running Mac OS 10.6.8. I have not had a problem viewing videos until the past week or so. Now I cannot view videos on my news, facebook or in email messages at all. A message pops up in the window that says "Blocked plug-in". I have downloaded the latest version of Flash Player for which it asks and still no luck. Can anyone here help me with this? Thank you. Grace

The latest version of Firefox has a built-in PDF viewer so you might try updating your version to see if this gets enabled. There might also be a conflict between this feature and any Adobe Reader plugins you might have installed, so uninstalling these plugins might restore the functionality of the Firefox browser.

Where can i download older working versions of flash player ?

Hello,
seeing as none of the version 10 adobe flash players have worked properly for me in XP service pack 3 and just result in frame by frame or non working web page clips regardless of unticking hardware acceleration. Where can i download fully working older versions ? As i am fed up with V10 as are a lot of others posting here.
Thank you.

Hi! Glad you did that. Also that you emailed it last night, the Flash Player Forum has had a lot of Technical issues today!!
Chris has already replied to one person, so I'm sure he'll be getting to you. I just heard their offices had some power outages today also. Gee, we don't need that!!
I'm so behind on the Forum, LOL Hopefully, I'll catch up (maybe)
Thanks for doing that. If anyone can help, it will be him. They have more Technical experience than I do.

Why can't I download the latest version of Flash player?

My system recently updated from Windows Explorer 9 to Windows Explorer 10. But I was encountering issues with trying to update to the latest version of Flash even prior to that. I keep getting the prompt that an update is available, but when I follow the steps, I get to Step 1, and click on the "Install now" button, and the screen changes to Step 2 but nothing else happens. For a moment it says "Initializing..." and then it says "If you encounter any issues downloading Adobe Flash Player, click here." But nothing else happens. If I click on the "Click here" button, it just tells me that when the File Download box appears I should click "Run" and when the User Account Control box appears I should click "Yes." But neither of these boxes ever appears! Very frustrating! (My current Adobe Flash version is 11.9.900.170 and my security program is Norton 360). Thanks.

Download and run these installers:
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

How can I download the current version of Flash Player?

After nearly 3 weeks my original request received 0 replies; I'm not too impressed with this forum. I uninstalled and reinstalled my OS X 10.6.8 operating system on my MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo after following troubleshooting instructions to uninstall which left me w/o any version. I was then able to reinstall version 10.1.102.64 of Flash Player. However, I am still not able to install the current version, 11.1.102.55, either using Safari or Firefox. What is the issue? I hope this inquiry is viewed and answered since my previous posting was not.

I just wondered if you ever saw my reply to your above message since it doesn't appear here. I've copied it below:
When I click on the link provided in your email, it takes me to: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550 where I select the link below.
MacintoshFlash Player for supported browsers
Upon clicking on that link, using my satellite connection, I see this url: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg as my screen goes black for a very few moments and then returns to the same screen where I made that selection, the page I see when clicking on the link you provided in your email.
That is all. It is about the same experience I have when clicking on the download now button/link at: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/. I see the page: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.1.102.55/install_flash_player_osx. dmg, but while it says the download may take a few minutes it only takes a few seconds, if that, to return to one of the previous pages. This is my experience using Safari. With Firefox, which I have not been using regularly and had not upgraded to the latest version, I found I was unable to upgrade Firefox and so maybe that tells you something. The problem may be more with my computer than with your software.
Still I am clearly quite frustrated at not being able to view certain videos, etc. which use the latest version of Flash Player.
Thanks for your concern.

Downloading an older version of Flash Player

A couple of years ago our school purchased some Sony DSC-S40 digital cameras that came with an enclosed tutorial on disk. This tutorial used Adobe flash and was fantastic. I used it as a primer for my students before doing digital photography. Adobe has since upgraded flash and the tutorial will no longer work with the new flash product. I can see that the newest version of flash is 10. Is it possible to download an earlier version of flash to play the tutorial?

If you need Flash Player 9, you can get it from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ (specify Windows 98/ME).
Get older versions from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
P.S. uninstall FP10 before installing any earlier version.

Adobe flash player stopped working properly please help

i'm using adobe flash player version10.0.32.18 on vista, and everytime i open my facebook application, i often encountered adobe flash player stopped working properly, then the page will recover, then after few minutes it will stopped then recover again. please someone help me how to solve this problem.

Hi, Thanks. Your Flash Player files and the SWO(if it is vs 10.0.45.2) are correct. Are you having problems on other sites
or just that one? Are you getting a message that is different than "you need to update your Flash Player?"
Many times it is the websites or if you are getting this from a game, then that can be causing the problem. I haven't been
able to determine if the websites that have NOT updated to support the latest Flash Player are just putting out a generic
message or not. You might want to check with the site to see if they support FP vs 10.0.45.2.
You may have an add on that is conflicting also, it is hard to tell. Some anti-virus programs have add ons that may conflict.
Since several users are having problems with Facebook, Farmville, Zynga, etc. my opinion is that it is not your computer.
One that posted here is waiting on a reply.
Thanks,
