I try to update the Flash Player. But download inside installer stucks.

Mac OSX 10.10.2
I've downloaded the Flasg Player Installer
Open the Installer
Download window appears but stuck at about 30%
The first time I've tried to install ist, the download was interrupted at 30%. Now it does not proceed anymore.
Is there any cache file to delete?

Hello,
This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer, OR
Download the stand-alone installer posted at the bottom of the http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.html in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
Thank you.

When I try and update my flash player, it downloads as a .mdlp file. How do I fix this?

Apologies for the slightly pedantic answer, but in application terms, "closed" and "quit" are two different things. An application such as Safari can have several windows open, and each of them can be closed using the red button in the corner.
However, even after all windows are closed, the application is still running until you specifically quit it. You can tell it's still running by the small light under its icon in the Dock. If you hold your cursor down on the icon for a few seconds, you should see a pop up menu with the "Quit" option - click that to quit it. Or, click the icon once (this may launch a new window), then either go to the Safari menu and click Quit, or click cmd-Q, to completely quit the app.

I just update my flash player but it is showing "blocked plugin" now when I try to play a video

I just update my flash player but it is showing "blocked plugin" now when I try to play a video

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.

After the upgrade to 3.6, my flash player crashes while I'm trying to play Farmville. I have tried updating the flash player. I have tried restarting the computer. Nothing is working.

Last night, my system was still using Firefox 3.5.8. I was playing Farmville on Facebook and everything was working fine. This morning, I log onto my computer and find that I am upgraded to Firefox 3.6. I have been trying to play Farmville all morning, and the Adobe Flash Player keeps crashing. I have tried to update the Flash Player. I have tried restarting the computer. Nothing is working.

To anyone experiencing this problem after trying the steps I posted above, try this potential solution:
# Open Tools->Add-Ons->Plugins, find Shockwave Flash, and press Disable
# Hold down the '''Windows logo key''' and press '''R''' to bring up the ''Run'' dialog.
# Type '''%APPDATA%''' and press OK.
# Open the Adobe folder
# Right click on the Flash Player folder and press '''Rename'''. Type in ''Old Flash Player'' as the new name.
# Go back to the Application Data or AppData folder. (On Windows XP, click '''Up''' in the toolbar. On Windows 7 or Vista, click AppData in the address bar)
# Open the Macromedia folder and repeat step #5
# Go back to the add-ons window from step #1, and press Enable on Shockwave Flash
# Try Farmville, Youtube, and other affected sites to see if the problem is fixed.

i have windows 7

Use the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header

When i go to update the flash player, i click after save to install flash player download, the box that pops up is completely blacked out?

please help, i cant update the flash player.

Hi Rosa,
Please try the offline installer posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows page, in the 'Still having problems' section. There will be three (3) installers. Since you're on Windows 8.x, ignore the installer for ActiveX Control, as Microsoft embeds Flash Player in Internet Explorer on Windows 8.x systems. You'll want to download the 'Flash Player for Firefox - NPAPI' installer file. If you also use Opera browser you'll want to download the 'Flash Player for Opera - PPAPI' installer file.

My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think.

My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think but it is linked as a plug in with chrome and IE. How can I get my windows to recognise the .swf files to play them.

The downloaded file is the projector, not an installer; you need to make the file association manually:
move the downloaded exe file to a location you can remember, e.g. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
right-click on a swf file and select Open with > Choose default program
navigate to the folder you saved the player and select flashplayer_13_sa.exe

My flash player when downloading is getting "stuck" at 30% what's going wrong? It also won't allow me to quit the installation and let me re-try

You really don't need to do "secure Empty Trash." Just empty the Trash. If you don't have permission to access some items that means you shouldn't be trying to delete them or you are trying to delete a file you don't own.
If your external drive is used only on your Mac, then it should not be formatted ExFAT. It should be prepared as follows:
Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Try restarting the computer. Then again try to Empty the Trash. Do you still get the error? What are you trying to delete?

Games I have been playing for months suddenly told me to update my Flash Player, but . . .

A few days ago, games I have been successfully playing for months on Club Pogo suddenly tells me my Flash Player needs to be updated to the most current version. But upon clicking the link and being brought to the Install Abobe Flash Player page, it tells me I already have the most current version for my operating system installed.
I've tired uninstalling and reinstalling it and I've checked for software updates for both Safari and Flash Player, but nothing seems to be working.
I am quite frustrated and I have no idea what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Nothing you can do; your OS version does not support any newer Flash Player versions.

I have an IMac 10.5.2 from about 5 years ago and recently my flash player stopped responding. I tried to update my flash player but it tells me I need an updated system to install the player. Can anyone help me figure out how to solve this problem?

I have an imac osx 10.5.2 from about five years ago and recently my flash player stopped operating/responding. Does anyone know if I have to install a new flash player? I have attempted it several times and it won't let me. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to solve this problem. Do I need a new operating system?

Why have you not updated to 10.5.8?
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3.183.23 or later, is for Intel Macs only running Tiger or Leopard, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.4.402.265 or later is for Snow Leopard onwards.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC (G4 or G5) Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications (including Safari) first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
After installing, reboot your Mac and relaunch Safari, then in Safari Preferences/Security enable ‘Allow Plugins’. If you are running 10.6.8 or later:

I play pogo games, I have the updated adobe flash player, but when I go to play a flash game FF states I don't have adobe flash player plug in, but I do have it..what do I do ?

Firefox keeps telling me I don't have adobe flash player, I do have it I just uninstalled and reinstalled it today

There are two version of Flash, ActiveX for IE and Plugin for other browsers. You need to install the Plugin version for Firefox.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). 
See this:
