Flash Player Problems with Mac Power PC

I have tried all the suggestions on this forum about how to install Flash Player for a Power PC Mac running 10.5.8. I still get the notice to install Flash Player. Is there something else that could be wrong? I ran the debugger, don't have any firewalls running etc. I finally got it to download and install but where is it going?

Hi Chris,
I used this link: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/895134?tstart=0
Where you said the following,
'Please try the following:
1. Follow the instructions for uninstalling Flash Player on the Mac: Uninstall Flash Player | Mac
2. Mount the flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg and try installing again
3. If it still fails, right click on "Install Adobe Flash Player" and select "Show Package Contents".
4. Navigate into the /Contents/Resources/ folder and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file.
Thanks,
Chris'
It didn't help though.
I tried step 4 and the installer says, "You cannot install. There is nothing to install."
So now, what am I to do??
Thanks.

Adobe Flash Player Problem with Safari

Hello,
I've just installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player on Safari. I can watch videos on all websites except for one, namely NovaTv Play. Whatever I do, I cannot open any of the videos. Therefore, I have to use a different browser like Google Chrome. I'd like to continue using one web browser but cannot resolve this problem myself. I've checked the FAQ of the aforementioned website and it is stated that if the videos cannot be loaded, the proper installation of Adobe Flash Player should be checked. This is something I did, and as stated, there are no problems with other websites. Can somebody help me with this issue?
I am using OS X 10.9.5 (13F34) and the latest version of Safari.
Thank you for your attention to the problem!
Best wishes,
Mariyan

so, if anyone else is having the same problem....My flash is working properly now. You have to delete every trace of the old adobe flash player and then reinstall the latest version!

Adobe Flash Player Problem with Install

I too am having the same problem as the many of you with the Flash Player saying that it is installed on internet explorer 8 and yet every website wants me to down load the latest version like I don't have it. I realy am getting tired of see the same popup constantly. I can find no answer from Adobe for this issue. Its like we are being ignored. What up with this Adobe? I on the stick and give us an answer please.

Please do a clean install of adobe flash player, follow the steps mentioned below

hope you can resolve problem =)

Hello JLavius
Looking at your Java. I am not familiar with IE7 but I know it has different features than IE6 which I still use.
Take a look at your screenshots, the 3 part and the other 2. Are there really 6 Java Plug-in 1.6.0_17 ActiveX Controls installed or is this
a screenshot overlap or counted more than once ? In addition there is another ActiveX Plug in same vs 1.6.0_17 but in file npjpi160_...
Then, there is a Java(tm)Plug-in 2 SSV, a BHO (Browser Helper Object) in file jp2ssv.dll
Lastly, there is a JQSIEStartDetectorImp (Not verified) Sun Microsy..., another BHO in file jqs_plugin
I will freely admit, Java is perplexing, but I'm trying to understand why anything takes this many ActiveX Controls and Browser Helpers to run. The 2SSV has it's own BHO and same with JQSIE.
The above is just my observation. You said that you noticed this flickering and blinking (instability) a few days around the time you posted.
Can you remember installing anything new around that time? Any software or perhaps an IE or Windows Update? Something is causing this and trying to pin point it is going to be difficult. You have the most add ons I have ever seen, but you have a great system too and it
looks like it could handle anything.
It may be worth a look in Add/Remove to see what IE or Windows Updates may have been installed around that date. Any program or Anti-Virus update or change?
I would contact Sun Microsystems and ask them about the Java. Flash Player, Shockwave Flash Object and Java work together for the best experience. See what you can find out and post back. If you can't find anything out, you may need to open up a support ticket here at Adobe. Thanks JLavius, I wish I could be more help.
P.S. here is the Sun Microsystems (Sun) forums. http://forums.sun.com/index.jspa

Anybody know what flash player works with mac 10.5.8 Intel

Having trouble finding flash player that works with mac 10.5.8 intel

Go to:
http://www.adobe.com/flashplatform/
On the right hand side there will be a button that says Get Adobe Flash Player. Click on that and you will be taken to a page that will allow you to download the most up to date version of flash supported by your system. Then simply follow the directions on that page to install.

Flash Player Problems with IE

Hello,
When I installed the new Flash CS4 when it was released a few
months ago, I noticed that the flash player stopped working with IE
7. That wasn't really a problem for me at the time because I always
use firefox. However, I need the flash player to work with IE for
another program and I can't seem to get it to install anymore. I
keep getting the
http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19166
error, so I followed all the solutions on this page:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_19166&sliceId=1
But I haven't had any luck.
Does any one have any other ideas?
Thanks

So there aren't any other solutions? (besides reinstalling
vista) I just think it is strange that it was working before I
installed Flash CS4 but not after. Has anyone else encounter
something similar to this?

Flash player problems with PDF that has multi-media content (voice recordings).

Hi - I created a presentation in Presenter 9 that contains audio recordings, published it as a pdf and sent it to my client's offices all over the U.S., as well as Japan, Belgium, Germany, South America and France. No one has had an issue viewing/hearing the presentation except one office, located in California. When they try to open it, they get the following message:
"To view the flash technololgy content in this pdf file, please install the required version of flash player."
Because of the message, and the fact that everyone else can open the presentation, I think the issue is related to the version of Flash Player the CA office is using, and that it is not a "Presenter" problem. The operating system and software details are as follows:
Windows 7 Pro SP1, 64-bit
Internet Explorer 11.0.13, 32-bit
Adobe Reader XI Version 11.0.09
Acrobat 9 Pro Version 9.0.0
Adobe Flash Player 15 ActiveX
I would welcome any advice you might have. This is difficult for me to troubleshoot as I am not having the problem, my client is.
Thanks -
Susan

Pat -
Thank you so much for your response. I will give it a try.

Flash player problems with youtube - using firefox

I have been having these problems for a while now, at least over 6 months I'd say. Everytime I want to watch any youtube video, I get this:
"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player."
I have scoured the internet for answers. I have cleared cookies, done clean uninstalls/installs, and java script is enabled. I somehow fixed it yesterday, when I cleared out cookies and also cleared file cache in firefox. It was also fixed after I uninstalled flash player, and upgraded to firefox 3.6. However, the problem has returned and after clearing cookies and the file cache again, it's still not working. I am hoping someone has a permanent fix for this. Also, I can watch videos on google, dailymotion, metacafe, etc. Only youtube gives me these problems.
I am using Windows XP SP2 and Firefox 3.6. Thank you

I wish that worked :[
I forgot to add that I am also using Norton Antivirus 2005. I already went to the Personal Firewall settings and I configured it to permit all adobe programs.

Problems with Flash Player on a Mac

    I recently installed the latest version of Flash Player on my Mac. Now, it's broken. Every site I go that uses Flash Player either displays a message "Missing plug-in" or "Typeerror: #1009" (I think that last is correct - the message disappears from the screen after seconds and there's no way to capture it.
    I'm on a Mac running 10.6.8 and the latest Flash Player downloaded today. I've checked the preferences to make sure everything is set correctly (i.e. plug-ins enabled and Javascript enabled), I've gone into storage and deleted all the stored data in case something in there was corrupt. I don't know what else I can do.
   This version of Flash Player appears broken somehow.
    Anyone know where I can download older versions that work?

Look at it this way: The websites that incorporate Flash on their sites wrote their code to follow the specs provided by Adobe. If the new version doesn't work on those sites (where it worked before) then either Adobe changed the specs and didn't tell anyone, or the code they wrote is not backwards compatible. Yes, I know there's an argument to be made for the sites writing bad code but that would account for a small number of sites, not dozens like I'm seeing.
Either way you look at it, whether I'm running the old version of Flash Player or the new version of Flash Player, there is a subset of websites (different in each case) that I cannot access content on, and that's Adobe's fault for the most part. I now have to choose which subset of sites I can't access - the ones that won't work with the old version of the software or the ones that won't work with the latest version.
I've always been unhappy with Adobe. This just makes me more so. It's one of the reasons why I've vowed NEVER to buy an Adobe product and never to recommend Adobe products to anyone. I only tolerate Flash and Adobe Reader because they're somewhat necessary. If there was an alternative to them, I'd use it. For the most part, I use Preview instead of Adobe Reader on my Mac and get along just fine. But, I haven't found a good replacement for Flash.
If there's anyone out there from Adobe reading this thread: Fix your damn software!!

Problem with finishing install of Flash Player on a Mac. When finishing by entering the requested password, the dialog box jiggles as if the p/w is invalid. But it works in the Adobe site.

I am trying to install Flash player on my Mac. All the steps are working as they should, until the point where I am asked to enter my password. I do this, and the dialog box jiggles as through the p/w were invalid. However, it works to sign in to the Adobe site. I just changed it to be sure and checked again.

There is no password required to download or install the Flash Player. Chances are your Mac is requiring you to enter its password to allow the installation to occur.

How can I install Adobe flash player on my Mac using Safari OR Chrome? I have gone through every step on all of the help pages. The installation process always stops with the black box that briefly says, "Retrieving Install . . . ", then nothing.

I have followed every step in the various help pages I was directed to when troubleshooting the inability to install Adobe Flash Player on my Mac using either Safari or Chrome. Everything has failed. I always get the black box that says briefly, "Retrieving instal. . . " and then goes blank. When I close that window, I get the message, "Adobe Flash Player could not be installed." Then it gives some links to follow for troubleshooting. I have followed ALL of the links there and on other help pages, to no avail. I've run into problems installing Adobe before, but it's never been this bad. Would someone please develop another format besides Adobe? Trying to get help from Adobe feels a little like trying to find a building in New York City with no map or GPS. The time required is voluminous, the emotional energy a/k/a frustration is overwhelming, and long before I get anything resolved, I wish the earth would open up and swallow all things Adobe@. Absence that miraculous intervention, I have to figure out what to do next. Does anyone know? Anyone?

Same question, same answer: use the offline installer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg
