I cannot download the new adobe flash player on my mac OSX 10.5

I have always been able to watch videos on line.  Now on msnbc it says I have to download the new Adobe Flash player in order to watch the videos.  When I try to download it won't do it. 

Call Apple and file a formal complaint, it's Apple that is not supplying security or patches to 10.5 users and expects everyone to be computer guru's.
16.5% of Mac users are on 10.5 and Apple just denies security and stability updates to force you to upgrade your OS or your hardware prematurely.
There is a massive botnet of over 600,000 Mac's and the prime location is on 10.5 Intel Mac's which they refuse to fix.
Appe's "solution" is for you to upgrade your operating system to 10.6 or even 10.7 (this will make your machine slow and won't run a lot of your software, another "problem")
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
IMO 10.6  would be best for you, the least trouble, but you bought a Mac for it to "just work" as your not "into" computers, your just a regular user like most Apple's customers.
So call Apple and complain, then buy the 10.6.3 retail disk and stick it into your machine and upgrade and cross your fingers and update to 10.6.8. 
Backup your persona data off the machine first to a storage drive and disconnect.

Once your on 10.6.3 use software update to get to 10.6.8, then you can install Flash.

    The iPad doesn't and never will support the Flash program. You will need to download and install a different browser like the aforementioned Skyfire. Photon and Puffin are also mentioned as browsers that support Flash. Or see if the place you're accessing that video from has an app.

  • Adobe Flash Player Security on Mac OSX 10.8.5

    Hello, I need some help. I keep getting an Adobe Flash Player Security warning every time I try to load Pandora on my Mac. I not sure if this is some form of spyware. I've tried to research it online but I can't find anything with this specific error message. Also I've run a few antivirus/spyware programs, but turned up with nothing. I've never come across it before when using Pandora in the past, so I know it's something out of the ordinary.
    Thank you all very much for the assistance.

    There's a local file "/about/srcdoc" (I'd imagine it's in the Muse-Pandora folder) that's attempting to connect to the Internet. This is a "safety feature" built into Flash Player to prevent malicious files from connecting and downloading a virus. Why they have that for Mac OS I do-not-even-pretend-to-know, but it's there.
    Open your System Preferences and the Flash Player pref pane
    Click the "Advanced" tab in the Flash Player Settings Manager window
    Scroll down to Developer Toos and click "Trusted Location Settings...:
    Click "Add Folder..."
    Select the Muse-Pandora folder in your Applications folder
    Confirm
    Close the Manager and retry it.

  • I am using FF 13.01 and now cannot access any YouTube videos. I tried deleting cookies, deleting history and installed the new Adobe Flash player.

    When opening any video on YouTube, I receive the following notice: "An error occurred. Please try again."
    I installed FF 13.01 by means of the automatic updater.
    Before the update, I was able to access YouTube videos. After the update, I have not.
    Before the update, Chrome was the default browser. I changed this to FF. Since then, I have not been able to view videos through FF.
    Chrome accesses YouTube videos.
    The video showing add-ons within Firefox does work.
    Two add-ons are listed: RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin and Skype Click to Call. Both are disabled.

    There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in these articles helps:

  • Cannot download new adobe flash player upgrade

    I just tried to download the newest Adobe Flash Player Upgrade by going to the Adobe website. The Adobe Flash Player Installer appeared in my downloads file. But when I double click it I get a Mac warning window opens that says "Can't be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store." When I go to the Mac App store and search for Adobe Flash Player, it doesn't exist there. How do I get it or is there another way to be able to watch video on the internet especially from sites like you tube and vimeo, but also sometimes on other sites. Do I have to keep the older version indefinitly and risk not getting security updates?

        System Preferences > Security & Privacy
        Unlock the lock, if you have to.
        Allow apps downloaded from:
        Select “Mac App store and identified developers”.
        Quit System Preferences and try.

    There is something wrong with the download that Adobe is pointing too. You can get the working download here:
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_player_10.exe
    That solved my problem immediately.
    I got this info from this post on the Adobe forum:

    Flash Download Problems
    WindowsXP SP3
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:6.0.2) Gecko/20110902 SeaMonkey/2.3.3
    (Note well: Internally, SeaMonkey 2.3.3 is the same as Firefox 6.0.2. They both use the same Gecko 6.0.2 for rendering Web pages, interfacing with the Internet, downloading, etc.) They differ only in the user interface (menus, buttons, etc).
    I see two problems when trying to download a new version of Flash Player from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/. .
    1. Your Web server is sniffing for my browser. I select the "Download now" button, and I get the same page all over again. The navigation is looping. If I spoof Firefox 6.0.2, however, I do get a download. This means you are sniffing for "Firefox" when you should be sniffing for "Gecko".
    2. While spoofing Firefox, the download gives me install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih.exe, which is not the installer for Flash Player 10.3.183.10. Instead, it is some kind of helper. To get the correct installer file, I had to search my archives to find the URI http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win /install_flash_player_10.exe.
    Both of these problems were previously cited in this forum at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3885371. Neither problem has been fixed.
