Is adobe flash player safe to download to my mac?

I was trying to watch a video but it said u had to down load adobe flash player?

What "other" security software?
What version of OS X is on your Mac Pro?
I just noticed that you have joined a thread that is talking about Flash on a mobile device. There is no version of Flash for a mobile device. It is available at the site I gave you ealier for Macs. So exactly what is you want?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you need Flash for important tasks, download and install it > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer I do not recommend you to use it due to the number of security issues it has got, but if you need it, you can install it without any problem. Just make sure you keep it updated

    Yes. Only direct from Adobe site.
    1. Install Adobe Flash Player.
        http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
        Follow the prompts.
        Quit Safari.
        Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
    2.  Enable Plug-ins
        Safari > Preferences > Security
        Internet Plug-ins >  "Allow  plug-ins"
        Enable it.
        Press " Manage Website Settings" button for more options.

  • Why does say"To play the selected item, you must install a later version of the Adobe Flash Player. To download the Adobe Flash Player, go to the Adobe website." when I have the latest Version of it and it's just Black screen with no audio and Video?

    You asked your question on the wrong forum. Try one for the Flash Player

    What is the solution?

    Download and install a version compatible to whatever cat flavor you have on the computer.

    Maybe Flash 11 is too big and you need to stay on Flash 10.3

  • Having trouble installing Adobe Flash player 17.0.0.134 on Mac OS 10.10.1.  Currently have 16.0.0305 flash player installed

    Having trouble installing Adobe Flash player 17.0.0.134 on Mac OS 10.10.1.  Currently have 16.0.0305 flash player installed.  I've tried quitting Safari.  Have not uninstalled currently Adobe as yet.  How to fix?

    Sorry, when I try to install Flash Player 17.0.0.134, it will begin initialing, then stop saying "Installation Failed" and to press "Finish".  It then directs me to troubleshooting.  I made sure I quit Safari as per their instructions, but have not gone as far as "uninstalling" my current Flash Player 16.0.0.305, because it looks like I will screw something up in the process.
    Hope that information helps.

  • Adobe Flash Player 10 reports download, is not in Flash Folder?

    I have uninstalled and installed Adobe Flash Player 10.2 on my Windows XP sp3 system using the both the DLM installer and the manual installer.  I have adjusted the firewall and security settings and have determined that no windows are open with Windows Explorer 8, messenger or other possible deterrents.  After each "install / download" Flash Player shows up in the Control Panel add / remove programs, but not in the C:\Program Files\Adobe folder, and I am unable to access YOUTUBE files, of course getting the warning that I need to update my Adobe Flash Player.  I have Adobe 10.2 installed on 3 other computers, but have not, so far, been able to get it to run on this one.  If I go to IE Tools/Internet Options/Programs/Manage Add Ons there is not a mention of Flash Player there.  I would really like to be able to use Flash on this computer.  Please advise.  GB

    The standard Flash Player is a browser add-on, not a standalone Player, and is therefore not installed in Program Files.
    What do you need Flash Player for?
    Can you see the Flash animation (rotating red 'F') http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?
    What files do you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash ?
    Since you cannot see the Shockwave Flash object in the IE add-ons, do you perhaps have the "kill-bit" for Flash Player set?  (See http://forums.adobe.com/message/3432049#3432049)

  • Adobe Flash Player will not download

    Suddenly my Firefox server is saying that I don't have Adobe Flash Player installed, but I know I've used it before. I checked my trash to see if maybe it accidentally got deleted, and I didn't see anything there.
    When I go on the website to try and re-download it, it doesn't work. And keeps directing me back to the site to download it. I've gotten as far as to download the file and begin to have it download to my computer, and it says "Download failed".
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

    You can download and save the Flash player installation file to the desktop. Then you can close Firefox and double click that icon to start the installation of the Flash plugin.

  • Why doesn't apple allow Adobe Flash Player to be downloaded ?

    Why doesn't apple support and allow downloading of Adobe Flash Player?

    Because there is no version available from Adobe that works on any iOS device.

  • Why does ipad not allow adobe flash player to be downloaded?

    Why doesn't the iPad allow me to download adobe flash player so I can play my games?

    TL;DR, Adobe doesn't make flash for the iPad, and they never will. If you want to view or play flash content, do it on a computer.
    Hopefully, this is the END of this thread.

  • ADOBE FLASH PLAYER CRASHES DURING DOWNLOAD/INSTALL

    i ALREADY HAVE THE LATEST ADOBE FLASH PLAYER INSTALLED AND WORKING IN INTERNET EXPLORER.
    i RECENTLY ADDED FIREFOX BECAUSE OF BAD MALWARE OUT THERE BUT I CAN'T GET THE ADOBE FLAS PLAYER TO WORK IN FIREFOR.
    MAYBE HTHERE'S A WAT TO GET IT INTO FIREFOS WIHTOUT DOWNLOADING IT?

    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
    *a plugin version for Firefox and most other browsers, except IE
    *an ActiveX version for IE
    When updating Adobe Flash, you must update both, separately. In Firefox, Tools > Add-ons > Plugins and on the "Plugin Check" page it is shown as "Shockwave Flash", the name given to it by Adobe.
    <br />
    #'''Check your plugin versions''': http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
    #*'''Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions'''
    #'''Update or Install the [[Managing the Flash plugin|Flash]] plugin''' to the latest version.
    #*Download and SAVE to your Desktop so you can find the installer later
    #*If you do not have the current version, click on the "Player Download Center" link on the "'''Download and information'''" or "'''Download Manual installers'''" below
    #*After download is complete, exit Firefox
    #*Click on the installer you just downloaded and install
    #**Windows 7 and Vista: may need to right-click the installer and choose "Run as Administrator"
    #*Start Firefox and check your version again or test the installation by going back to the download link below

    Adobe flash player won’t install past 50% in Mavericks. No previous versions on my machine. All requirements are met per Adobe. Please HELP!

    try downloading the offline installer of Flash Player from here, and then run the installer locally on your MacBook Pro.
