Flash Player 10.3 will not work in Safari on Mac OS X 10.5.8. Please help!

Mac OS X 10.5.8
Safari 5.0.6
Flash Player 10.3
I'm not sure what the problem is. I could play youtube videos etc fine last time I was on the computer and now they just wont work and say 'plug-in missing'. But when I try to download the latest compatible version although the installation says that its successful I still can't play any videos and continue to get the 'upgrade flash player required' message.
I've tried all of the troubleshooting from the Adobe website, and have searched the discussion boards following Chris Campbell's advice (plug-ins are enabled; checked library/Internet Plug-ins folder and moved all of the plugs out to the desktop with the exception of the Flash Player files; unchecked 'Open using Rosetta') from previous posts but still nothing.
Please help, it's really annoying! What am I doing wrong?
Cheers

    The instillation says that it is successful, however when using Safari I'm informed I do not have flash player installed. When I check the hard drive, flash player in no where to be found. I have tried all of the troubleshooting from the Adobe website, and I am still stumped. I was able to get the Flash Player to run in firefox 5.0, but not Safari.
    Please Help!!!! I have searched the discussion boards for days now in my spare time and have not been able to find an answer.
    I am not the most savvy person with computers, what am I missing here??

    In my Library/Internet Plug-ins folder I have a file named Flash Player.plugin (it's 22.8 MB however, not 23.9mb) and another named flashplayer.xpt (it's 4 KB however, not856 bytes).
    I am unable to open the Plug-Ins menu (the browser pops up but wont load)...is there another way to check for Shockwave Flash?? When I do a search for "Shockwave" on my hard drive I do find a plug-in named "DirectorShockwave.plugin" (76 KB)
    Also...The "Open using Rosetta" checkbox was already unchecked

  • Latest flash player, wmode GPU still not working in Safari

    Hi
    I have the latest flash player installed, (10.2.153.1) but when i use the parameter
    wmode=gpu
    in safari, nothing is displayed AT ALL. When right-clicking on the page, you only get the standard html options.
    When I remove the 'wmode' parameter, everything works fine.
    I have the latest version of safari. Everything works fine in other browsers (firefox, chrome).
    any ideas anyone???
    thanks!

    Sometimes it is just a trial and error.  The main thing is since I'm not working with your files, I have to mimic your scenario as best I can.  Make sure you give it exact positions when stacking actual videos or swf files to force them to overlap.  I tested this first with just a swf file and now the example is swapped to stack to youtube embeds as examples.
    It really shouldn't matter if it is a dropdown or what type of activity, as long as you have the stacking correct.  You can also, generally set the one in back to opaque. I updated the code snippet because this one seemed to read better.

    Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

  • Flash Player 10.2 will not install - not same problem as Audrey below.

    Hi,
    Using Win 7 home deluxe, was using Flash player no problem until the office had me uninstall it to fix another problem but now will not reinstall, keeps insisting on installing Mc Afee alongside it and then Mc Afee won't install correctly and won't allow Flash Player to install either.
    Have repeatedly uninstalled the full Adobe free software suite, and Mc Afee and started from the beginning have tried using the 32 bit IE instead of thr 64 bit, when the window comes up showing the registration it only shows the Quit button will not let me use the Agree or Install button and again and again it keeps installing Mc Afee without being asked, I don't use or need Mc Afee as have Nortons.   I have also been turning off the norton antivrus while doing the installation as i know that can interfere with it.
    been trying this on and off for some days now, multiple times, and I do need to get this fixed I would appreciate some advice thanks
    T

    Yes Friend and I posted a message of thanks also which I'm very pleased to send to you personally, the missing link was that little check box you mentioned, I had done the install or tried to many times but never seen that small box so that was the problem.
    Very grateful  - thanks very much for your time and patience !!
    Best Regards

    Where are you trying to get Flash Player from? Downloading is different from installing but many malicious websites offer to supply Flash Player as a means of installing malicious software and gathering personal information (e.g., passwords). You should get Adobe Flash only from Adobe and this link lets you download the full installer (Mac OS X (Intel) DMG) and run it locally. At that point OS X will ask for your password and if you've been using it successfully for other purposes (e.g., changing some items in System Preferences), it should work there too. Note that once Flash Player is installed, a Preference panel is installed too, and in it you can authorize Adobe to update Flash automatically.

  • YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

    YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads, if it's even loading at all.
    I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

    You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

  • I have been given an Apple 3G which is in jailbreak.  After restoring and updating my phone will not accept any updates or restoration. Unknown error 1015. Please help!

    I have been given an Apple 3G which is in jailbreak.  After restoring and updating my phone to get rid of jailbreak the iphone will not accept any updates or restoration. Unknown error 1015. Please help!  I am new to all this and want to start using the phone legitimately.

    I believe from the situation you describe your iPhone 3g has the iPAD baseband 6.15.00 which is interfering with iTunes. Remember Apple does not allow downgrade of software typically. The current 3g firmware 4.2.1 has a baseband 5.15.04 which is lower than, what I believe your baseband is of 6.15.00. So to install the current 3g firmware 4.2.1 would actually be a baseband downgrade, which iTunes will not allow. So to fix your iPhone you will have to search the Web like diesel vdub said. There are no parts to buy and your iPhone will work again I promise.
