I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8 flash player is not working!

Hello,
Out of the blue i realize i do not see in website flash buttons, intros etc..?
i have install
Adobe Flash Player 11.8.800.94
why this is happening.... it i sa huge problem to me. Please if any knows why... help me.
thank you in advance

See: How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
In addition to these steps, I recommend, BEFORE emptying the trash:
Go to: [User]/Library/Preferences (hold the "Option" key when clicking "Go" from the Finder menu to reveal the hidden Library folder)
Trash the ENTIRE Macromedia folder from there
Aside from that additional step, follow the rest of the instructions to the letter and you should be back up and running.

  • Has anyone been able to contact Adobe to learn why their Flash Player does not work on Mac OS 10.6.8, no matter how many updates you install?  This seems like a big error by Adobe.

    I have thee Mac computers with Mac OS 10.6.8, one of which is a Mac Pro.  No matter how many updates I install from Adobe, their Flash Player does not work on any of these 3 computers.  I don't know how to contact Adobe Systems about this problem, but I think it is their responsibility to make sure that their so-called "universal" software works proplerly on a relatively recent operating system like OS 10.6.8 that is still in widespread use.  When you install the updates, nothing happens -- not even an error message.  What is the point of a universal player that is not universal?  It works fine on my MacBook Pro with OS 9 Mavericks, but it does not work at all -- indeed, has never worked -- on my 3 Macs with OS 10.6.8.  Has anyone contacted Adobe Systems to find out why the Flash Player does not work with OS 10.6.8 and what they plan to do about it?

    Where are you getting Flash from?
    Get the appropriate dmg installer here and then run it.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
    If it still won't install, do these two things: First uninstall any Flash by going into the second level Hard Drive Library>Internet Plug-ins, and trash the Flash Player.plugin and flashplayer.xpt. Then boot into Safe Boot, Shift at the startup chime (give it much longer than a usual boot) and run the installer while booted in Safe Boot.

  • Flash Player 9 Not Working on Mac OS X

    I just installed the Flash Player 9 on my Power PC based Mac
    OS X 10.3.9 and now no Flash elements work in Safari 1.3.2, or even
    Explorer (which I don't use). I have been sure to close all
    browsers, uninstall first etc. The installations appears to
    complete successfully, but I get the following error message on any
    page that has flash:
    The page “Adobe” attempted to load an Internet
    plug-in named “Shockwave Flash”, but the plug-in failed
    to load successfully.
    Worse yet, any attempts to install on older version of the
    player now give me the same error. I can no longer view any Flash!
    If anyone can help (Adobe!), it would be much
    appreciated.

    Many, many thanks to primes235. AFter hours of trying to
    uninstall, reinstall, etc., I used his directions (see step 1,
    etc., on his 12/16/06 post. I was able to drag those files (enable
    file sharing IF you are networked) from another computer, and all
    is working fine now. These files were not really invisible/hidden;
    just be sure you delete the ones specified before moving the new
    ones.
    hI am still not sure why this happened, except I was
    following directions that I needed to update flash from
    ttp://ecard.ashland.edu/2004admission/index.html
    Either that site is buggy, or the new flash is. From the
    comments before this, I don't expect a reply from Adobe either. I
    tried calling them, but no luck. Crappy customer/tech support. Hope
    this helps someone, and thanks again primes235.

  • Flash player 10 not working on Mac

    Hi there,
    I am unable to use flash player on a Mac OSX 10.6.4.  I have a webcam on my laptop but for some reason flash enabled sites are unable to detect the webcam.  The message I receive is "no camera detected."  I've tried reinstalling flash player numerous times but that hasn't fixed the problem.  Looking at photobooth I can see that my webcam is functioning.  The webcam was working fine before this latest update.  Thanks ahead for any help.

    Hi, Make sure the Shockwave Flash plugin is Enabled for one thing. I'm not familiar with Webcams so can't help you with that.
    If you have Installed Flash Player then test at this site to see if you can see the animation of the Flash logo and what version is listed.

  • Adobe Flash Player Will Not Work with Safari Mac OS 10.9.2

    I have tried numerous times to install Adobe Flash Player for Mac OS 10.9 and get Plug-in error when I try to run it.  Before the suggested update, Flash Player ran fine.  I would not have tried the update except the files on the web site that I am usinf had a symnbol statiing that the later version of Flash Player was required for it to run. 
    I did what Adobe suggested and removed the plug-in and then reinstalled it. Still does not work.  When is Adobe going to fix it?   I think it was not well researched before the release, and it definately has compatibility issues with Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks
    Thanks,
    Fred

    Hi Mike M,
    Thanks for the quick response.  It worked OK after I did this, and I alerted other users in my MUG just in case they have a similar aged Macs.  I hope that the fix for this will be automatic in the next update.

  • Flash player update not working on MAC 10.6.8

    New Adobe Flash loads correctly, says it worked but I can't find the flash player and I keep getting the message that I need to load the udpated player in Safari.  I uninstalled the old flash player, restarted the computer and downloaded several times, but it still does not recognize the new player.  Where is it on my MAC?

  • Re: What can I do if Flash player isn't working at all?  Does Flash player work on Macs?

    March 1 2015
    I'm just gonna keep updating this as I can't really do anything else. I've found several more questions like mine with no answers. I did find one with an answer that mentions that it may be the video card acting up, so I'm gonna post a screenshot of my information.
    March 1, 2015
    I posted this question on the 25th, and have yet to receive an answer. Because of this crashing problem, I can't do anything on my computer outside of play solitaire, and hang around Adobe communities looking for an answer. I've found several questions like mine (Mac, firefox, flash player constantly crashing) that have no answers either, and I'm getting upset. I've been floating around Mozilla and Apple's help sections, and there's no answer there either. How do I get an answer? Or is there just no fix for this issue and Flash player doesn't work on mac anymore? Is there another program that I can use in place of Flash player? I would very much like an answer, response, or anything cause I stuck here till then. Thank you for you time.
    Here's more crash reports:

    Adobe Flash Player 16.0.0.305
    Hello,
    Since   last week, Adobe Flash Player has not worked on my computer at all. I   can't watch any videos, and any webpage using Flash for the ads  crashes.  I tried using Adblock initially thinking that the ads were the  problem  because they have frozen my computer in the past. This did  nothing, so I  went through the trouble shooting guide for Flash on  Mozilla's website.  I removed all plugins, disabled hardware  acceleration, and even  uninstalled Firefox and Flash player then  reinstalled them again. It  still keeps crashing, and I don't know what  to do anymore.   Is there anything that can be done? Thank you for your  time.

    Hi Chelsea,
    The USER forums are a forum for users, while Adobe staff does participate it is not our primary responsibility to participate and we post in-between our regular work.  Since these are primarily user forums a time-frame for responding is not guaranteed, especially if another user is not familiar with the issue and can't be of assistance.
    Please file a bug at https://bugbase.adobe.com/ and include as much information as possible, including attaching the entire contents of the crash log file.  Please post the bug number here and I'll triage the bug to get it to the right folks for investigation.

  • Mac OSX wont update to latest Flash Player version.

    My Mac OSX intel 10.6.8 will not play Flash Player. I have followed all the instructions, including "How to Perform a Clean Install" but Flash Player does not work. I have even checked with Apple Community site and followed suggestions regarding plug-ins, etc. but still it does not work. Quite niggled  because I dont have flash player on my Mac at all now, having followed Adobe's instructions to delete original. If necessary and if possible I would download a previous version.  Using Safari v. 5.1.9. 
    Before uninstalling for the umpteenth time, I was able to provide the following information (to Apple Support Community) but eventually they told me I should contact this site.

    I have a Mac Pro tower am running OSX and iTunes will not work. It has always worked flawlessly. I can see all my iTunes content- my playlists, my songs et cetera, But I cannot play anything. The progress bar is  'stuck'...any suggestions?

    Thanks. I have been using iTunes since its inception and have never had a problem...I'm using the latest version. The progress bar is the bar that moves when you're playing a song..it just won't start when I double click on a song,..have tried quitting, rebooting etc but nothing works. Apple are useless-they have told me twice they've tried to call me 'momentarily', but I've been waiting by the phone, and they definitely have not tried to call...

    The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
