How do I get the AFP.pkg to install the Flash Player?

Hi,
I have iBook G4 ppc
OS 10.4.11
I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player.pkg v. 10. When I click it I get "Easy Install on "Macintosh HD". I highlight my HD. I close all browsers. I click "Upgrade" for a basic Installation. The installation bar runs quickly across, then tells me installation is finished, but I don't end up with a Flash Player. I've used Spolight and all it comes up with is the Adobe Flash Player.pkg. Would someone please advise me on how to get Flash Player installed?
Thanks,
Rafael

     Thanks for your response.
     I have often encountered movie files with the .flv extention, and I've never been able to play them. I really don't know _what_ I need to play these, but Adobe 'Flash Player' seemed a logical bet. The logo looks the same as the logo on these .flv files. Maybe it is a standalone player tyhat I need. Maybe 'Adobe Media Player' is the right tool. All I need is something that will play these movie files.
     Last night I did a Google search for .flv and the top listing was in wikipedia, which I enclose.
     I also enclose two images, or two different logos associated with .flv files that I've downloaded onto my computer. Both the files with the realplayer logo and the files with the videocamera logo, when clicked open as I describe in my first post above, with the blank window.
     I hope I'm describing my issue clearly to you. the bottom line is just to be able to play those movie files.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_Video
Flash Video is a container file format used to deliver video over the Internet using Adobe Flash Player (initially produced by Macromedia) versions 6–10. … There are two different video file formats defined by Adobe Systems and supported in Adobe Flash Player: FLV and F4V. The audio and video data within FLV files are encoded in the same way as they are within SWF files. The latter F4V file format is based on the ISO base media file format and is supported starting with Flash Player 9 update 3.[1][2]
The format has quickly established itself as the format of choice for embedded video on the web. Notable users of the Flash Video format include YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo! Video, metacafe, Reuters.com, and many other news providers.
The standards documentation for BBC Online states that the BBC now preferentially accepts Flash videos for submission, to the disadvantage of other formats previously in use on its sites[3] such as RealVideo or WMV.
Though the Flash Video container format itself is published, most of the compression formats used with it are patented. Flash Video FLV files usually contain material encoded with codecs following the Sorenson Spark or VP6 video compression formats. The most recent public releases of Flash Player also support H.264 video and HE-AAC audio.
Flash Video is viewable on most operating systems, via the widely available Adobe Flash Player and web browser plugin, or one of several third-party programs.

    I'll assume alot here,?but my guess is you installed the new playforsure firmware for the player. If that is the case then you will need the playforsure plug in for the Creative MediaSource Organizer. You can download it on this creative's site under downloads.

    I have successfully downloaded Flash Player several times, but I am still unable to play video clips from websites like CNN. I get the message that I have to download Flash Player.  Flash Player shows up in the list of installed programs on the computer's control panel. 

    I assume you are on Windows 7.

  • I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?

    I have quicktime player 10 installed on my mac and it is considered the (default) player.  How can I get my Quicktime 7 Pro as my default player?  When I downloaded video from my phone, I couldn't hear the sound because Quicktime player 10 automatically opened the file and there was no sound,  When I opened the file in quicktime 7 Pro, the audio was fine.  I would prefer to have all movie files open automatically using my Pro version.  Any suggestions?  When I trashed the QT player 10 and clicked on the .3g2 movie file, it didn't automatically open with QT 7 Pro.  Instead a window opened wanting to convert the file to Flash.  I don't want that to happen.

    Try This...
    Highlight the file you want Quicktime 7 Pro to open -
    Goto File > Get Info or (CMD I)
    In the Get Info window, scroll down to "Open with:"
    Select the player you want to open the music file.
    Click the "Change All..." button if you want to

  • I have a 120gb Classic that has no space left on it. i am going to buy a larger gb capacity ipod as soon as i get clearer instruction on how to get the old ipod content to the new ipod. How do you get content from one ipod to the other?

    how do you get content from one ipod to the new one? my content is on an external hard drive not on my pc and i have run out of space on my 120gb classic. can you get old ipod content to new? my itunes has only got short cuts, the real content is on an external drive? can this be done?? please help

    If the content is on an external drive, but your library knows where to find it, then it should all work. Connect your device, make some selections for what to put on it, and sync. If, on the other hand, your current iPod is the only place holding some of your media then see this user tip: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • When I use Home sharing, I can see the library I want to copy, but when I highlight the library, the import button does not show up. Also, it will not let me drop and drag. How do I get music from one computer to the other computer?

    When I use Home Sharing, I can see the library I want to copy under Shared, but I can't get it save on the computer under the regular library. I go to edit and "select all" but there is no import button that is in the right hand corner. Also, it will not let me click and drag the music. How do I get it from one computer to the other?

    Since both computers are connected via the network, you could simply copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from one computer to another via the network.
    If both computers are running Windows, use the Easy File Transfer Utility built into Windows to move iTunes and all other user media/data.

    I add my comcast email to the mail on a iMac running Maverick. It downloads all my emails from there. How do i get my email to delete of the the server

    Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts, click the '+' button below the list of accounts and insert the settings, username and password as instructed. Some account types can be set up automatically as soon as Mail knows the emails address (because the server settings are built in), in other cases you will have to get them from your ISP.

    No not bothered about sycing apps etc it is all about calendars and maybe notes. IN terms of how its done I just want it the easiest way and preferably so that if an entry is made on one calendar then it populates the other.
    Thgius is beacuse I have my work diary on outlok, which I then link with my ical. I want to make sure that information is then shared with her.

  • How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?

       How do I get iTunes 11 to work as the old iTunes did in this respect: after playing a song in one playlist, I click on another playlist, highlight a song, press play, and get the result of that song playing & that playlist continuing?  As it goes now, one clicks on the song in the new playlist where the arrow is and then chooses 'Play Song Next.'  So, it plays next, but then the song after that is back in the old playlist.  I want to use iTunes smoothly without the extra clicks I've had to do in order to get the playlist to continue.  This is music for background while I play the violin at restaurants, and extra clicks and hassle is quite unappreciated, especailly since it worked fine in the previous iTunes.
       Thanks.

    At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
    If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).
