Fresh Install of Adobe Flash Player with OS X 10.10

I was having difficulty getting Flash to update, so I tried to install it, then reinstall.  Using the links I was provided from Adobe, I kept getting a "General Installation Error" after it loaded to 75%.  Solution:  use this link to download Adobe Flash Player for a fresh install http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html. 
Worked like a charm!  Hope this helps.

Never had an issue getting the latest updater from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.

    how to update adobe flash player with os10.6.8

    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. 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 (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:
    When you have installed the latest version of Flash, relaunch Safari and test.
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then in System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser, but check this also:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5655?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US  which also covers ‘blocked plug-in’.

  • Because I have to install the Adobe Flash Player Active X or Normal?

    Hello All, Fisrs, forgive my  English because I am Spanish.
    I can think of something funny to me. I have installed the Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X and I have Explorer 8 ( 32 bits ) , Windows Vista home Premium and every day asking me to install the Flash Player.
    Happens if install the same to Adobe Flash Player 10.3.183.5, in the same version yo have.
    I see that every day, if I look at the progras I have istalled , see this Adobe Flas Player ( active X or normal ) with a blanc icon, not the typical figure of the program.
    Not to do so the program gets installed forever. When yo reinstall it and the icon's own sotware.
    I really apreciate it that I help them see than hapening and how I can solve. Thank you very match.
    Grettings.

    Hello and thank you
    I am attaching a photo of what I have in the Flash folder you indicate, as a photo:
    If it not attached the link see large:http://imageshack.us/f/840/sinflashejecutat.jpg/
    And then run the Flash every day . Which I can only do so by accessing or a websit that you ask me, give OK when it asks me to activate the Active X and contiunue the process because if not, would have to install it each time since the Adobe web site.
    You run the Flash Player 10 Active X , this would be the Flash folder you see in the picture below:
    and also attached the lin for if you are not good:

  • Installing the adobe flash player

    I have not installed the adobe flash player because it says I might have to disable my virus safety net during the download process.  I do not want to put my computer at risk for a virus at any time.  How can I access the flash player without having to disable my virus safety net?

    Depending what antivirus software you use, you may not need to do that.  Some very aggressive AV may prevent Flash Player from being installed; most however do not.
    Tell us more about your OS and AV, and someone will tell you what to do.

  • Cannot Install/Upgrade Adobe Flash Player in Yosemite

    I have been unable to install/upgrade Adobe Flash Player since installing Yosemite.  I have uninstalled the program, as suggested on the Adobe website, however, I still cannot install Flash Player.  Can anyone help?

    Have you tried downloading the full installer and then installing it locally? You can get the DMG installer for the current version of Flash here.

  • Why I have to install different adobe flash player

    use two browsers, one Maxthon Browser, the other firefox. The Maxthon is used to viewing domestic webs, the latter foreign webs. I intsalled an adobe flash player. When I use Maxthon, it works well. but then I turn to Firefox, I just cannot open the flash on my jersey web, saying unavailable. Someone told me that I have to install another adobe flash player for Firefox. I did as told. and finally it works. but why I have to install different players for different browsers, how can I use just one that works both for Maxthon and Firefox or other browsers.

    I'd never heard of Maxthon before, but after reviewing their site it looks like it's based on Internet Explorer.  If that's the case, IE uses ActiveX technology, while all other browsers are plug-in based.  Flash Player has two versions, one for IE (ActiveX) and another for all other browsers (Firefox, Opera, Chrome, etc.)

  • Installing the adobe flash player in windows vista home premium service pack 1

    Hi,
    I have been having some problems downloading this for over a year now even when I reinstall or reboot my pc or whatever, even change the security settings so I need your help. I found the support center which said:
    http://http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html#Download but then I dont even know how to locate the flash folder, where is that? How do I find it?
    then do I have to highlight 10a before right clicking it? otherwise where do I right click exactly? when you say to run the flash player installer, do you mean to just click it? Cause I did and it came on but then even after downloading or installing the uninstaller and running it then installing again, it wont work even when I do that and then reboot my pc...Is there any possibility that it cant work on my pc? How would I know?
    See...Im no tech expert so I really need your help. Please reply asap. Thanks a lotttt!!!

    Hi, well I'm sorry you are having such a hard time. We'll see what the problem may be. First to answer your question,
    the OS means operating system. Which if you are using Windows, then your OS is Vista. It could be XP or the newest one
    which is Windows7, Win7 for short. Now if someone is using a Mac, then that would be their OS.
    Now your computer and all computers can install and run Flash Player. However there are a few things that can cause a problem, so I'll list a few.
    The first thing and most important is that you must be the Administrator of your computer. If this is your computer and you set up the accounts, the first account set up would be the Administrator account. You can look at that as the "Boss"
    Now some people will set up accounts for other people but they are not Administrator accounts, they are called User or Limited accounts. They cannot be "Boss":-) There are some other things, but I'm stating it this way, so you can better understand.
    When you Install programs, like Flash Player, you have to use the Administrator account to do so.
    Don't think you are the only one having problems. We'll find out what it is and fix it.
    Since using the Administrator account is the most important, I want you to go down to where the clock it. With your mouse, right click over the time that is showing. Then when the small window opens, left click on Adjust Date/Time.
    Then post back and tell me what you saw.
    Thanks,

  • I cannot install/upgrade Adobe Flash Player

    An email came to me with something sent on Adobe.  I could not open it because I needed an update on my Adobe Flash player.  I tried to update it and nearly finish with the installation when I keep getting the message that I need to close Safari  which IS closed.  I can get up to 97% installed and then a box pops up that says I have to close Safari.  I open Safari and then close it and then hit the "retry button" but it keeps bouncing back that I need to close Safari.  HELP.

    Hello,
    On Mac, closing a browser, or app window, closes only that instance of the app.  It does not terminate the application.  Please refer to How do I quit Safari (or another browser/app) in OS X for information on how to properly terminate Safari and proceed with Flash Player installation.

    Make sure you are using the correct version of Flash Player.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    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, 10.2.152.25 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Note that the latest Flash Player update only works on YouTube with Safari in 32 bit mode - until YouTube correct this.
    * 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'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1 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/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
    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.
