Answer 1

are you using mac OS10.2 or later?
if so, this is what I did to solve this most frustrating
problem. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities
In the Disk Utility window, click on your hard drive, make
sure you're in the First Aid tab, then click on Repair Disk
Permissions.
Once the permissions were repaired, I took the advice of
another user here on the forum and reinstalled Flash Player 6, as
it was the one that was working before I tried to upgrade and it
screwed everything up.
Hope this helps
