Issues Installing flash player for mac

Hi
I have a mac os 10.4 and i tried upgrading the flash player because there are certain video and shows I can't see and I uninstalled the old flash player and tried to install the new flash player well it didn't work because this is a powerpc I guess and the latest version they have for power pc is flash player 10.1 So I downloaded and installed the flash player but when I tried to watch a video or show it keeps saying that I need to download a flash player so I am kind of lost I mean the flash player is already installed and everything? I am so confused and would really appreciate if someone can help me pls?

Hi, I have the exact same issue. I too downloaded the 10.1 and it didn't work. I even uninstalled whatever I had in flash previously. I am running Safari and I just don't know what to do. If you happen to find an answer to this seemingly simple issue, I would really appreciate knowing!

"General Installation Error" installing Flash Player for Mac

Even after a complete un-install (using Adobe un-installer) and restart, it only installs to 6% to 50%. OS is up to date. It failed on MacBook Pro and Mac Mini, both under 3 years old.

Since a couple of months, Adobe Flash Player updates do not work anymore on my Mac OS 10.8.5 (while uninstalling and freshly installing the update does). I wonder why Adobe doesn't get this right.
Uh... that would mostly be because Adobe DIDN'T delete your mach_kernel file...

I have a new MacBook Pro. I have OS 10.8.2. I cannot get FlashPlayer to download. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Flash Player 11 from the Adobe website. Doesn't work. Every time I try to download, I get an error message that says "Error: General Installation Error" Can someone PLEASE help? I've spent hours with this and am very frustrated.

Thank you for your reply. I am running Safari, and I have tried it with

Can't install flash player on Mac OSX version 10.4.11

Hello
I've spent the morning trying to do this and still no joy. I had flash player already and when trying to use the 4oD website it asked me to download or upgrade flashplayer. I did, the correct version according to my mac version. All goes well and the window message says 'installed successfully'.The only thing I find strange is that just before this message appears I hear the sound of items being put in the 'trash' ... and there they are. Other times the message error -1409 appears. The only icon that appears is the Flash player installer.pkg so not sure whether the application was installed or just the installer! All web searches prompt me to download the missing plug in, both in safari and mozilla. Java script is definitely enabled on both browsers.
I have use the uninstall package three times, restarted the computer, downloaded flash player again but no change.
Forgive my limited use of jargon - this doesn't make any sense to me but I've just spent 3 hours following instructions to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Trying to install flash player on Mac OS 10.6 .

Trying to install flash player on Mac OS 10.6 w/Safari. Ran uninstaller. In troubleshooting guide, no version comes up in the box, and no error message. I have unblocked cookies and pop-ups. No firewall. Still, the download bar runs to completion, and then nothing. Help?
UPdate: called my local Apple Geek, and he said go to finder, click on adobe download, and go from there. Got the install icon, and its installed. 2 minutes versus the 2 hours I spent on the Adobe troubleshooting page. Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Or have a beer. Anyway, thanks for reading and good luck.

I have tried about twenty times to install the Adobe Flash Player on my Mac. I had Adobe malware previously when responding to a fake popup Adobe update request.
In orfer to install now I am asked to disable my anti virus. If I do it would be permanent. I get the Adobe download and installer and even see I have an installed version in a box on the Adobe page but cannot access pdf's that require the player.

*Flash Player for PPC Macs*
Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
To check your installed version of FlashPlayer - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
Read this whole post before proceeding. You have to follow steps precisely and there is mention of an alternative version of Flashplayer at the end that some have decided to try.
To update you should download:
Flash uninstaller: [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,] Make sure you get the right one.
Flash installer 10.1.102.64 [http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.1.102. 64_and_9.0.289.0_archive.zip] Open the archive to reveal yet more archives and multiple files. Select: flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg
To install:
1) Run Disk Utility and verify your hard drive. If the hard drive reports errors then it will need repairing first (another topic). If it verifies, run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
2) Back up your hard drive, ideally to a bootable clone. A bootable clone will allow you to restore your hard drive to its original state should something go wrong.
3) Quit all applications to ensure nothing is actively using Flash. You can even do the next step while booted to Safe Mode to make sure.
[Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393]
[What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564]
[Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107394]
4) Run the uninstaller application. Adobe says, "Adobe recommends that you restart your computer before you install a different version of the player."
5) Run the installer application from the .dmg file you got from the second download.
6) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your computer. This is important when installing anything from Adobe.
7) Restart your computer.
Notes:
Adobe installs things all over your computer. Simply dragging a file or two to the trash won't ensure you have uninstalled all old file components.

Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862 - this gets FP to tell web sites you are running a newer version than you really are. This gets around web sites that don't really need a new version but think they know best. If they really do require it then this hack doesn't work.

Alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite

Is there a reliable and secure alternative to Adobe Flash Player for Macs running Yosemite? I keep getting websites telling me that I can see a video because my Flash Player needs to be updated. But I haven't wanted to install it as I've heard negative things about it and Macs. Is there an alternative to Flash Player? And if so, what is it and where do I find it?

Being that Flash is very insecure, I've completely removed it from my MacBook Pro. The best alternative is to uninstall Flash from your system and download Google Chrome as it has Flash build into it and you're not vulnerable unless you're browsing in Chrome. If Safari is your main browser, as mine is, then you need to open Safari Preferences, go to Advanced and click the checkbox for 'Show Develop menu in menu bar'. Once you've done this, the Develop menu bar menu shows up and you can click it and choose 'Open Page With' and choose Chrome. It is a bit cumbersome, but it removes the vulnerability when browsing in Safari as many sites are now using HTML5. Hope this help.

First try deleting Flash Player by carefully following the instructions on Adobe's website:

Then install it again from this location only:

Installing Flash Player for Other Browsers on Win 8

Hi,
I would like to install Flash Player for Other Browsers (specifically for Steam) on my laptop which runs on Win 8 but I'm having issues.
When I run the installation file and then click Yes in the User Account Control dialog box, nothing happens thereafter.
I checked in Task Manager and the installer is indeed running but I don't see anything happening (been more than half an hour).
I tried terminating the first instance of the program, downloading the file again, and running the installer - but the same problem arises.
Please help! THANKS!

Try if you have better luck with the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header

For Internet Explorer, you don't. Microsoft has already done it.
For Firefox, Opera or Safari, use the Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
For Chrome, you don't need to wither because Google puts it in the browser.

And this is what i have found on there support page Raptr wants me to download "Flash for Other Browsers". Where do I get that? : Raptr Support
