I have a blue folder in my Utilities titled flash player 10UB should it be there?
I found a file in Applications called InstallMac which I deleted as I believe it is Adware. I still get the yellow box screen on shutdown asking if I wish to continue installation. On going through all my files I have found a blue file titled Install flash Player 10UB, could this be connected and shall I delete it, not sure if something like this should be living in Utilities? Please use simple language in response to this, I am an old faithful who wishes Apple had stopped at Tiger, hope someone can help.
No never knowingly installed Adobe Air, so have deleted those but rogue yellow box still appearing. tried inserting a grab shot from finder/apps to show you as it doesn't look right to me but site doesn't seem to want to let me do that. so hope what is below makes sense and thank you for your ongoing help.
Finder/blue file Adobe>AdobeFl..5 Update>Applications
Google Earth
Library
MAU 1.1...date Log
Music
followed by a few other files like system,Music (from old mac), Users Gui...information, Users.
Back to Applications I have Adobe Fl..Installer, AdobeFl...5 Update and finally AdobeFl.._aih.dmg. the latter I checked out and seemed to be an ok update

I just updated my macbook pro and now every time i go to youtube it tells me I have to download the new version of adobe flash player so i do and it still wont let me play it ..
Assuming Allan's advice is not correct, and you do run the installer, I think I've heard of that problem and it involves removing the old Flash plug-ins, then install the new version. I don't use it so I don't know what they are called, but will be the /Library/Internet Plug-ins folder.
You can go here and enable HTML5 in YouTube so you don't have to use Flash: http://www.youtube.com/html5
Most(?) of the content is HTML5, but you may run into videos where you still need Flash. -

My Android tab runs Flash just fine, and has done so for 2 years. Are you suggesting one day Adobe is going to break in my house and uninstall it?
I don't understand this at all, it seems at every turn I try to use this thing like my android tab and I simply can't, all I've found so far to actually be able to do is use iTunes for everything... pretty lame and something I'm not going to do when I can get this content free on all my other devices.
This is truly a shame. I was really hoping I was just doing something wrong. Glad I only spent $50 on it at a garage sale. -

please help with blocked plug ins i have down loaded the latest version of abode several time and am not getting anywhere this seems to be an ongoing problem when i get updates from them
When you download from the Adobe site, despite the button saying “install” — it really doesn't do anything but download the installer.
Quit the Safari browser. Next to the Trash icon on your Dock, is an icon that is an alias to your Downloads folder. Click this icon once. There will be a list of previous downloads that pops up. The file closest to the Dock is the Adobe Flash installer. Click this once to launch it. It will display like this:
Double-click the red flash folder. This produces the following dialog — you select Open.
You will receive a password challenge. Use your Mac OS login password. You next prompt will look like this. Choose the middle selection as I have shown:
The Adobe Flash Player will download and install via a blue progress bar. You will need to click a Finish button, and then Safari launches taking you to the Adobe site to verify Flash Player was installed.
In System Preferences, the bottom panel now has an Adobe Flash Player preference panel. It has an Advanced tab that enables you to check if there are newer releases of Adobe Flash available, and it wil also fetch the installer for you (usually). The System Preferences panel, and Safari must both be closed for Flash Player updates to succeed.
Eject the Adobe Flash Player installer from your Desktop.
Once Flash Player is installed, you may need to open Safari Preferences > Security, and check Internet plug-ins: Allow Plug-ins. Click the Manage Website Settings… button, and then select Adobe Flash Player in the left panel of the pop-up. You want Allow set When visiting other websites. Click Done, and close Safari Preferences. -
I have been having a problem for the last week. Use pogo.com and it wanted me to update the Adobe Flash Player to play 1/2 the games on the site. When I updated it said needed os x version 10.6 or higher for latest version. Currently have os x 10.5.8 when I hit update software it says that I have the latest version of software and doesn't update.
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

I have tried to see in browser firefox or downloaded many pdf-s but he show a blank page, I have installed latest version from adobe reader and Nitro pdf download add on for firefox, but no result. What can I do? my firefox version is 22
Also another problem is adobe flash player who use my CPU at maximum. I have latest version, 2 GB RAM and 2gh CPU Windows 7. Where can I set to not use more than 75% from CPU ?
ThanksHello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you. -
i cant figure out how to download the application any other way. everytime i click on it in the downloads box it says application not found.
Well, after hours of trying to figure it out I gave up and un-installed and re-installed that last verion of Adobe Flash Player and now it seems I can play games again in Messenger. Everything else had been fine just that. I can only figure it was because it was having a hard time updating the first time and took me 3 tries. So even though it said it was installed, apparently it wasn't done correctly.
Though when I couldn't figure out what was wrong at first I looked and checked to see all the things were enabled that were supposed to be and they were.
I even tried to go to the Adobe site and download the last version I had and couldn't find it. Kept coming up with the new version. Others said if you download a particular older version it may not have all the security features in it.
This really gets to be a bit much, especially when you're by yourself and have only a smattering of knowledge of technical things.
Thanks fore responding to my question.

Does firefox have the same problem as internet explorer with flash player
IE is having problems with adobe flash player. Before I download it on Mozilla platform I need to know if Mozilla is also having issues with flash player.
There are some known issues with the Shockwave Flash plugin for Firefox that some are suffering from, so you will have install the plugin to see if you need to take action and how the plugin works.
In case there are problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions, you can try this:
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin
See also:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Troubleshooting
A possible option is to set the Flash plug to click-to-play by setting the permissions for Flash to "Ask To Activate" in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins".<br />
That way you can activate the Flash plugin when you need it via the Lego block icon on the location bar. -
If you look at this page in Firefox, http://www.vpi-corp.com/Empower-Demo/index-iframe.asp, you will see that the html portion of the page loads, and if you right click in the white area in the middle, the Flash is present as well. I can view this page correctly in Internet Explorer and Chrome. I have tried to export the movie as far back as Flash 7.0, but will not resolve. I have also been able to see this video for a while in Firefox, but then mysteriously went away. Any help would be appreciated. I suspect some patch to the programming on this page will be necessary.
That f4v file is send as text/plain, maybe that is causing it

Hey all. I just figured this out on my own as no one at Adobe will release a playbook that gives proper instructions on this issue. If you are having issues with the application not installing all of the way, you have a permission issue on the the partition where your Yosemite OS is installed. Here is how you fix the issue that you are experiencing:
Open Disk Utility (press Command and the Space Bar, then type disk utility)
Locate your disk and the partition where your OS installed.
Select First Aid (in the right pane next to Erase and Restore)
Locate the button "Verify Disk Permissions" and click on it.
Wait, get some coffee and relax, this will all be over soon
When Verify Disk Permissions is complete, click on the button "Repair Disk Permissions"
Now grab breakfast, lunch or dinner and tell someone you love that you love them.
After your disk permissions have been repaired, close out Disk Utility
Open the FlashPlayer installation file and run the installation again.
Finally, whew... Enjoy your entertainment fare. You made it across the schism that Adobe loves to plague their loyal patrons with.
I hope this helps someone. Let me know if it worked or didn't; I am curious if you all will see the same success that I have realized.
Cheers & Many Regards,
Geoffwhat button is command?

GeoffThis works for most people and is the advice I usually give to Mac users that are having mysterious installer failures. We have enough of a population that everything that can go wrong will. Disk corruption is one of those inevitable things that happens, and it causes mysterious problems. The installer isn't doing anything complex -- it's basically a glorified unzip tool, so when simple operations like "write a couple files" fail, it's typically that we're making a completely standard call the operating system that should never fail, and it's failing -- either silently or with an error, just depending on what's going on.
For what it's worth, I actually correctly diagnosed a broken pin on a monitor cable today based on the description some funky intermittent video playback behavior, so we really *do* see everything on these forums.
