Need flash player 9 for mac os 10.5

i am unable to download flash 10, so it recommended that for my system, which is mac os 10.5.8 with safari 4.0.2 i need flash player 9....but when i download the zip files from the archives i can't open it. am i missing something here or is the link not working? if someone can get me a working link so i can download flash player 9 that would be great. i had to uninstall the existing flash player because it had a problem and shut down safari whenever i went to a site with that plug in.

    *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.

  • I need flash player for iPad 2 what's available out there?

    I need flash player for iPad 2, what's currently out there ?

    Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
    If you do a search on this forum you will find hundreds of other threads on the subject.

    Hello,
    There are two versions of Flash Player for Windows:  ActiveX for Internet Explorer and Plug-in for non-IE browsers. It appear you may have installed the one for non-IE browsers.  Please use the links below to download and install:
    Flash Player ActiveX (Internet Explorer

  • Is it now OK to download Adobe Flash Player for Mac?

    Is it now OK to download Adobe Flash Player for MAC?

    It's always okay. Hackers try to find ways to attack it, Adobe fixes it. Just like Apple releases patches for flaws that have been found. Just like Microsoft constantly releases security fixes for its OS and other software.
    No software is perfectly and forever safe, and unlikely ever will be. The only thing you must do in respect to the Flash Player is to only ever get it directly from Adobe. Never, EVER pay attention to any third party site that pops up a message about having to update flash. Especially if it tells you to download said update from their site.

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

    Then install it again from this location only:

  • HT202681 Is Flash Player only for Safari? Do I need Flash Player for Firefox?

    Is Flash Player only for Safari? Do I need Flash Player for Firefox?

    A Flash tip to help avoid security issues later: There are known scammer who fake a "Flash is out of date" pop-up that leads you to a site that installs malware or can compromise your private data. If you see a pop-up in FF saying you need to upgrade Flash, the only safe thing to do is go to this official Adobe site:
    https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    and follow the downloads instructions there. It will show the currently available version. You can quickly tell what version is on your computer by doing System Preference > Flash Player and selecting the "Updates" tab.
    Do NOT choose to update Flash from any pop-up. Here are several articles with more info on the "Fake Flash" issue:
    http://www.thesafemac.com/?s=flash&submit=Search
    Fake Flash pop-ups commonly contain grammatical or spelling errors. One common one is "Failure to install this update may cause your computer to crush." Using only the official Adobe site I linked plus checking your current version via System Preferences will avoid your having to figure out if a pop-up is fake.

  • Do you need Flash Player for projector files?

    We are about to distribute some CDs with our website on them
    (which uses XML). I've published projector files for Mac and PC and
    they work fine on my computer. We just want to make sure everyone
    will be able to view the projectors, even if they don't have Flash
    Player on their system weather it be a Mac or PC.
    Thanks so much!
    Hamish

    When you make a projector the player is bundled into it. Your
    users do not
    need Flash player.

  • Adobe Flash Player for MAC

  • Adobe Flash Player for Mac 10.5.8

    I have been using Adobe Flash Player for ages (for Hulu, etc.) and I tried to update it today.
    After that I was unable to open it.  It keep showing the message:
    The application Install Adobe Flash Player quit unexpectedly
    I tried to find out what I should do and followed some directions shown to solve this, such as:
    - Uninstall Flash Player
    - trashing Flash Player plug-in (wasn't there, or couldn't find it)
    - trashing Flash Player Install Manager (wasn't there, or couldn't find it)
    According to Adobe's instructions, prior to installing Flash Player, I should open Safari Preferences, Security and then enable Allow Java and Allow All Other Plug-Ins in the Internet Plug-ins section, but no Internet Plug-Ins section appears in the Security section of Preferences.
    I have tried to download Flash Player from a few sites, but I keep on receiving the same 'quit unexpectedly' message.
    If anyone could help me, I would be really grateful.  I need to resolve this problem as soon as possible.  Up to today, there has been no problem.
    Thanks for your help.
    Best regards,
    Susan, Japan

    Hi Susan,
    Be careful where you download from, many free sites now attach malware or adware to it, only get from Adobe's site.
    There are no recent updates for 10.5.8, is your iMac PPC or Intel?
