General Installation Error - Flash Player 12 on Mac.

Getting this message on iMac 27" with 10.8.5 during the installation. Al previous version were updated on time and worked perfectly. I followed the steps suggesting to delete files in Library, restart and re-install. No success. Everything ends up with the same message.
The update file had a bit different graphic on install with the General Error Message at the end.
The full install just says "Installation Failed."
Frankly, ran out of ideas what to do...
Anybody can help? Will really appreciate it!

You came to the right place....
Your troubles aren't coming from Flash Player.
You're missing a file that was made visible by the 10.8.5 update (mach_kernel). Hundreds of thousands of Mac users all over the world deleted it, not knowing what it was. It causes this when it's missing.
Download this file: "Secrets" pereference pane
It'll allow you to see "hidden files" on your Mac.
And this one: mach_kernel.zip
It's the one that was deleted.
Install Secrets, and open your System Preferences.
Open the Secrets Preference Pane, and check "Show hidden files"
You'll need to press the "Quit this" button,
and restart Finder, by right clicking the Dock icon.
Then, place the mach_kernel.zip file in the Mac HD directory,
and unzip it. You should see a "faded" mach_kernel file appear.
Trash the zip file.
Reopen your System Preferences and uncheck "Show Hidden files".
Instead of quitting Finder and relaunching it, reboot your Mac.
Your Flash Player installer won't quit anymore.

Installation of Flash Player on MAC OS 10.7.5

Trying to install Flash Player, I have worked through the troubleshooting guidelines and it is still not showing up as installed even though it says installation completed and the installation seemed to run smootly. I have then tried to uninstall Flash Player, but once again it says that it is not installed. I have gone through this process about 10 times, rebooting after each and still no luck. In the flash player Help, it says that either the Flash Player version and OS will be displayed or an error message in the grey box, however my box is blank, not showing either? My co-worker on the same MAC has Flash Player installed with no problems.

Hi Christa,
Glad to hear you were able to solve this! It sounds like it was a two part solution, at least for Safari. If that checkbox was unchecked, then Flash definitely would not work. However, it also sounds like you had gotten into a state where Flash wasn't fully installed. Since the plugin is the same file between Firefox and Safari, installing for one will indeed allow the other browser to use it too.
Thanks,
Chris

Can't install flash player on Mac OSX version 10.4.11

Hello
I've spent the morning trying to do this and still no joy. I had flash player already and when trying to use the 4oD website it asked me to download or upgrade flashplayer. I did, the correct version according to my mac version. All goes well and the window message says 'installed successfully'.The only thing I find strange is that just before this message appears I hear the sound of items being put in the 'trash' ... and there they are. Other times the message error -1409 appears. The only icon that appears is the Flash player installer.pkg so not sure whether the application was installed or just the installer! All web searches prompt me to download the missing plug in, both in safari and mozilla. Java script is definitely enabled on both browsers.
I have use the uninstall package three times, restarted the computer, downloaded flash player again but no change.
Forgive my limited use of jargon - this doesn't make any sense to me but I've just spent 3 hours following instructions to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

GENERAL INSTALLATION ERROR (MAC)

Okay, so like everyone else has said I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING that has been posted thus far.
I have a Mac running 10.8.5 and I can't get around this general installation error that pops up every time I'm at 50%. I do not want to download something so that I can download THIS. That's ridiculous. What can I do to have any flash player back on my computer??
I've uninstalled older version as advised (by downloading something of course), and it didn't work.
I've tried to run it through terminal
I've downloaded Firefox instead of Safari and it didn't make a difference
I've followed links to other installers that have been posted....
I'm at a loss. Please HELP.

Your troubles aren't coming from Flash Player.
You're missing a file that was made visible by the 10.8.5 update. Hundreds of thousands of Mac users all over the world deleted it, not knowing what it was. It causes this when it's missing.
Download this file: "Secrets" pereference pane
And this one: mach_kernel.zip
Install Secrets, and open your System Preferences.
Open the Secrets Preference Pane, and check "Show hidden files"
You'll need to press the "Quit this" button,
and restart Finder, by right clicking the Dock icon.
Then, place the mach_kernel.zip file in the Mac HD directory,
and unzip it. You should see a "faded" mach_kernel file appear.
Trash the zip file.
Reopen your System Preferences and uncheck "Show Hidden files".
Instead of quitting Finder and relaunching it, reboot your Mac.
Your Flash Player installer won't quit anymore.

General Installation Error, mac 10.8.2

I downloaded the latest flash player from the abode website (for mac, safari, english). Download is fine. Installation proceeds to about 50% completion and then terminates with a "General Installation Error". Here's the configuration:
Mac intel core 2 duo 2.26 GHz
OS 10.8.2
Safari 6.0.2
I downloaded the flash player uninstaller, and it reported a successful uninstall. Also checked for directories in /Library/Internet Plugins and the (Disabled) folder. No flash player components left.
Checked pop-up blocker (it's not set), system preferences (download apps from any source is checked). Also disabled norton auto-protect. Install still fails.
I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There doesn't appear to be a solution to these particular error messages from Adobe. I have followed the guidance from Adobe.com (uninstalled and re-installed) and then followed the guidance in this forum post and others using the terminal route, all without luck. I have no Flash functionality (other than in Chrome) which is extremely annoying.
My setup is MacBookPro Mavericks 10.9. Firewall is off (temporarily). No virus software. No remnants of Flash as far as I can tell. Logged into a administrator account.
Here's the log for "flash" from console:

Many thanks in advance for your support.

Keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5

keep getting "general installation error" message Mac OSX 10.8.5/Safari 6.0.5 Followed all the instructions for uninstalling and clean installing. Just wont install

Make sure you have it set to "show hidden files"
Check BOTH places and you have to restart Finder
Press "Quit This" and then go to the Finder Dock icon and right click it
Select "Open"
Open TIme Machine
Go back to September 28 or earlier.
You'll see the mach_kernel file in the Mac HD directory
(I can't show it in the TM because screenshots don't work while it's open but here it is in my MAc HD)
Right click it and select "Restore to"
Then, when it goes back to Finder, choose the Mac HD directory and click OK.
It will place the mach_kernel back where it was and you can install software again
DON'T FORGET to go back and hide your files (and restart Finder) again, or you'll have a mess with the clutter of hidden files everywhere.

What does "General Installation Error" mean?

I was attempting to install Flash Player ver. 11.9.900.117 on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X v. 10.8.5. The installation fails with the message "General Installation Error." What is the cause of this error and how do I fix it?

I'm not sure if I deleted it or not, but having read several of the messages posted on this thread I did the on-line re-installation of the OS just in case I did unwittingly. After re-installing the OS, I'm now able to install the latest version of Flash Player.
The upshot is don't delete that mach_kernel file!
Mystery solved!
P.S. - Has anyone posted or passed this onto Apple?

General Installation Error

Pls can anybody help me to get out from this error.
Thanks ,
Pranav.

It seems that the installer is unable to remove/replace NPSWF32.dll
Try the following:
go to http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550 and download
the 32-bit uninstaller [save to disk]
the 32-bit installer(s) [save to disk]
close all browser windows, then run the downloaded uninstaller
restart Windows
go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash and delete any remaining files in there
now run the downloaded installer

I can't install flash player on MAC

I can't install flash player on MAC
give me error after program download on MAC as me to put my user ID and password
I try to put but always give me error

@douglasbell2
The dialog window requesting the password is an OS dialog window, it is not a Flash Player window. I understand the confusion, but we can't modify a system dialog window with additional information.
@jongenelen
If you're system does not have a password, you should be able to continue the installation with out it. Ignore the password field and click the OK button. If your system does have a password and you don't recall what it is, I recommend Googling something like "reset lost os x password". This search returns many results, and some vary depending on the OS version.

Trying to install flash player on Mac OS 10.6 .

Trying to install flash player on Mac OS 10.6 w/Safari. Ran uninstaller. In troubleshooting guide, no version comes up in the box, and no error message. I have unblocked cookies and pop-ups. No firewall. Still, the download bar runs to completion, and then nothing. Help?
UPdate: called my local Apple Geek, and he said go to finder, click on adobe download, and go from there. Got the install icon, and its installed. 2 minutes versus the 2 hours I spent on the Adobe troubleshooting page. Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Or have a beer. Anyway, thanks for reading and good luck.

I have tried about twenty times to install the Adobe Flash Player on my Mac. I had Adobe malware previously when responding to a fake popup Adobe update request.
In orfer to install now I am asked to disable my anti virus. If I do it would be permanent. I get the Adobe download and installer and even see I have an installed version in a box on the Adobe page but cannot access pdf's that require the player.

*Flash Player for PPC Macs*
Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
To check your installed version of FlashPlayer - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
Read this whole post before proceeding. You have to follow steps precisely and there is mention of an alternative version of Flashplayer at the end that some have decided to try.
To update you should download:
Flash uninstaller: [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,] Make sure you get the right one.
Flash installer 10.1.102.64 [http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.1.102. 64_and_9.0.289.0_archive.zip] Open the archive to reveal yet more archives and multiple files. Select: flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg
To install:
1) Run Disk Utility and verify your hard drive. If the hard drive reports errors then it will need repairing first (another topic). If it verifies, run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
2) Back up your hard drive, ideally to a bootable clone. A bootable clone will allow you to restore your hard drive to its original state should something go wrong.
3) Quit all applications to ensure nothing is actively using Flash. You can even do the next step while booted to Safe Mode to make sure.
[Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393]
[What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564]
[Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107394]
4) Run the uninstaller application. Adobe says, "Adobe recommends that you restart your computer before you install a different version of the player."
5) Run the installer application from the .dmg file you got from the second download.
6) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your computer. This is important when installing anything from Adobe.
7) Restart your computer.
Notes:
Adobe installs things all over your computer. Simply dragging a file or two to the trash won't ensure you have uninstalled all old file components.

Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862 - this gets FP to tell web sites you are running a newer version than you really are. This gets around web sites that don't really need a new version but think they know best. If they really do require it then this hack doesn't work.
