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’.

The website i am on keeps telling me i have blocked plug-ins

how come the website i am on tells me i have a blocked plug-in?

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password. If you get the same error after doing that, re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
2. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
3. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
4. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

How do I unblock Blocked Plug-ins?

I just downloaded and installed the latest version of Safari. Now during some internet searches, the message "Blocked Plug-in" appears on my screen. This never happened before I installed the new version of Safari. How can I unblock all plug-ins?

I updated Flash and still have blocked plug ins - what now?

Why do I see "Blocked Plug-Ins" when I try to play a video - this is generally on the BBC News website. I haven't tried elsewhere.

Hello alymarvellous,
Take a look at the article linked below, it provides information about the plug-in alert that you’re seeing when browsing specific websites on your iMac.
Safari 8 (Yosemite): Safari troubleshooting
Problems with plug-ins
If a webpage has trouble showing plug-in content such as video, you may see a placeholder with a button that describes a plug-in problem. For example, the plug-in might be old, missing, or blocked.
Try clicking the placeholder button to resolve the problem.
For more information, see If a plug-in is missing and If a website has plug-in content.
Cheers,
-Jason

TS3408 why will some websites which loaded fine before now not load - when other favourites load fine, and new searches are fine? This only affects 2 websites, both of which were bookmarked. I have removed them as bookmarks and this makes no difference.

From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

Why do I have so many blocked plug ins on my computer?

Hello,
Safari, blocked plug-ins…
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5271

Why can't I install the latest version of Flash Player? I have all plug-ins allowed.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
          When visiting other websites
From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
          Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
          Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
          Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
          Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
          Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

I have blocked plug-in. I cannot download Adobe flashplayer

Hello eadesgirl,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you are experiencing a "blocked plugin" message on your Mac when viewing certain web sites.
To address this situation, be sure to follow the steps mentioned here:
Adobe Flash Player updates available for OS X on December 12, 2014 - Apple Support
If you're using an out-of-date version of the Adobe Flash Player plug-in, you may see the message “Blocked plug-in,” “Flash Security Alert,” or “Flash out-of-date” when attempting to view Flash content in Safari.
Clicking the indicator displays a message that Adobe Flash Player is out-of-date:
To continue viewing Flash content, update to a later version of Adobe Flash Player:
Click the Download Flash button. Safari opens the Adobe Flash Player page on the Adobe website.
Follow the instructions on the Adobe website to download and install the latest version of the plug-in.
If you need to use an older version of Flash Player, you can use Internet plug-in management in Safari to run the plug-in in unsafe mode for websites that you trust.
Contact Adobe if you need help downloading, installing, or using Adobe Flash Player.
Sincerely,
Jeremy

Why won't Adobe flash load and why am I now left with blocked plug ins ?!!

Yesterday I received a demand via Safari to download latest version of Adobe flash player.
I did so and immediately found my system virtually unusable, with blocked plug ins at every turn. Neither has the flash player actually installed, despite constant attempts. I have removed previous versions, etc, restarted the Mac etc, taken every bit of advice going.
24 hours later and having wasted nearly a whole day, I am still left with a Mac with applications I cannot now access which were running to perfection before trying to download Adobe flash player. Hugely frustrating and annoying.

I had a different issue in that the install hung at 95% but I used a manual install and that fixed the problem. See if this works for you as it appears that the installer is buggy.
Use the "Manual Install" mode. Control-click on Install Adobe Flash Player.app
"In the Contents/Resources folder, you’ll find a file named Adobe Flash Player.pkg. Double click it"
That worked.
Just to mention, you do not need to restart the system after installation

Macbook pro 4gb 2.3Ghz core i5, os X 10.6.8 blocked plug ins/have checked safari settings

using macbook pro Snow Leopard 10.6.8. blocked plug ins mean I cannot access needed info./have checked settings on Safari. Where check next?

I checked and rechecked whatever I could think of to check. I have the security updates for my system and that got me to adobe and java. I redid adobe flash and before downloading rechecked specs to be sure I'd been correct earlier and crossed my fingers and downloaded/installed it again. So far, the multiple "blocked plug in" signs have retreated. I thank you very much both for the help and especially the support--I'm not so hot at trying the unknown (for me) on a computer even now! Am saving this for future use should I need it again.

Why am I suddenly seeing "blocked plug-in"?

I just updated my software now have all "blocked plug-ins" and can't watch videos.

Reinstall your plug-ins with the latest versions. Yours are out of date. Flash player is likely the problem. Go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and download and install the latest version.

My Safari says it blocks plug-ins.why?MacBook 10.6.8 I am not bery computer savvy.

Why won't my Safari allow plug-ins? I used it for years and just recently it has become a problem. I wanted to send an ecard and the preview is blocked but the site will let me in. I downloaded Adobe but it has not helped.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
*Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
