Flash player download prompt won't go away
When viewing a certain web page that features movies, I get a prompt that reads "Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. Do you want to download it now?". Clicking "OK" leads me to the Adobe download page (apparently legitimate), and, after going through the download process on three separate occasions (again, apparently successfully), I still get the prompt. Not a huge problem, admittedly, but annoying.
Any helpful hints?
I too am having the same problem. both my flash and shockwave players are fully up to date and confirmed on the adobe page.
Really not sure why. My mate who has a G5 iMac has the same problem on the same site. Is it a Leopard thing?
We are web developers, and we actually made that site, and the .swf exported was made to be compatible with version 5. so not sure what the problems is. Just annoying.

After clicking Safari prompt box to "Download Flash..." , I'm linked to the Adobe Flash Player Download page. I click the "Download Now". The page advance to next page in the download process but then immediately goes black and nothing happens. System preferences firewall is off and apps are allowed from anywhere and in Safari other plug ins are allowed and cookies are not blocked and pop up windows are not blocked. Why won't Flash Player download?
Don't DL Flash from web sites. If you have Adobe Flash installed it should be in System Preferences and you can find the latest version and download from there.
If you are installing for the first time,this is where to DL it.

Warning... dumb question ahead: Tech guy who set up my Macbook Pro didn't give me my password info, and yes I forgot to ask for it. Didn't need it till I decided to finally download a Flash Player upgrade, which won't complete process without my Mac (Admin?) password. Suggestions anyone?

I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!
The same thing happens to me, Safari asks me to update the Adobe FlasPlayer, I download, start the installation process, ask me my username and password in order to install, then see a window where I choose if I want to always install the updates , or ask first, or not inslate updates, and at this point it is not progress, I can not cancel the process, I turn off and turn on my machine.
What can I do ..??

Does Macbook really needs adobe flash player download in order to watch video clips on the web?
Hello Angel8C,
Your MacBook Air running Yosemite will need an updated version of the Flash Player plugin to play web content that is in the Flash format (not all video content is Flash; there is also HTML5 video, amongst others). If you are being prompted to update your Flash Player plugin, you may find the following article helpful:

Wll there be a flash player download for the ipad 2 at any point?
Wll there be a flash player download for the ipad 2 at any point
While no one can say with absolute certainty, at this time it appears to be highly unlikely that a version of Flash Player will ever appear for iOS. Adobe has said that they've given up work on a version for iOS, so unless they change their minds at some point, and can come up with a version that would meet Apple's criteria for performance, security and stability, then Kappy is correct that no, it won't happen.

When I try to watch any video clip I get this:
The version of “Adobe Flash Player” on your system does not include the latest security updates and has been blocked. To continue using “Adobe Flash Player”, download an updated version from Adobe’s website.
I tried clicking on the Adobe Flash Player. It said it accepted it but it did not make a difference.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!This did not work

You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
