New Mac Version Flash Player Download Hangs Up at 95%

I've been unable to download the newest version of Flash Player to my Mac 10.8.5, because the download always hangs up at 95% complete.  I've tried restarting my computer without success.  What is going wrong and what do I do to complete the download.  Previously my Flash Player worked fine, but I was notified that I need to upgrade to the new version.  Now I have no Flash Player working.  Any help you can provide will be much appreciated.  Thank you.

Hello again, Mike.
Okay, I did as you said:
1)     I found the downloaded file in my Downloads folder that I downloaded from the Adobe website.  The file name is: 
AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_12_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg
2)     I then double-clicked on the icon so the Install Adobe Flash Player icon appeared.  I believe doing this is what you called "mount the dmg."  I this is not what you wanted me to do then I need an explanation of what mount the dmg means.
3)     The window with the Install Adobe Flash Player did not look exactly like the window in the PDF you sent me.  Instead of just showing a small icon in the upper left corner with the file name under the icon Install Adobe Flash Player.app, the window that appeared has a large red band withe the Adobe logo in the upper left corner and a large lowercase "f" in the right side of the red band.  The icon appeared below the red band and the file name was to the right of the icon and showed "Install Adobe Flash Player" and did not include the ".app" at the end.
4)     I then did a Control click on the Adobe Flash Player icon and which opened the same window that you showed in your response.
5)     I click highlighted on "Show Package Contents," which took me to the Finder window with the Contents folder.
6)      I click highlighted on the "Contents" folder and found inside slightly different list than you showed.  My list of contents inside the Contents folder is:
     _CodeSignature
     info.plist
     MacOS
     Pkginfo
     Resources
7)     Although the list was not the same as the list you identified, both your list and my list did include a folder called "Resources."
8)     I click highlighted the Resources folder and found a different list than the long list you identified.  I found these contents inside the Resources folder:
     app.bundle
     app.icns
     en.lproj
So … there was no COCOA installer to run … and I am still stuck and still need your help.
Thanks,
Bruce

  • How to get past the Flash Player Download screen when a newer version is already installed?

    Does anyone know how I can get past the Flash Player Download? I already have a newer version then what is trying to load. Therefore, I get a screen telling me the same, but I still can't access the files I need. It is a vicious loop I'm stuck in. Can anyone help me?

    Hi..
    Are you running Lion v10.7 by chance even though your profile indicates v10.6.8   ??
    I ask because you can only reinstall apps using Lion Recovery
    Much better to ask for help with Safari here before trying to delete the app and reinstall.
    Is the Safari app still in the Trash by chance?

  • The version of "Adobe Flash Player" on your system does not include the latest security updates and has been blocked. To continue using "Adobe Flash Player", download an updated version from Adobe's website.

    The version of “Adobe Flash Player” on your system does not include the latest security updates and has been blocked. To continue using “Adobe Flash Player”, download an updated version from Adobe’s website.

    You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
    Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
    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 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
    * Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC 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 first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • TS4062 i cannot sync my phone with itunes because my software is 10.5.8 so new itunes version will not download. How else can i sync iphone to my mac?

    i cannot sync my iphone with itunes because my software is too old- 10.5.8. The new itunes version will not download. How else can i sync my iphone to my mac?

    You need to buy and install a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD; once it's installed, run the Software Update pane of System Preferences twice.
    There is no other way to sync it, but content can be downloaded directly from the iTunes Store servers; for non-purchased music, this requires signing up for iTunes Match, which costs more than the DVD.

  • Flash Player download fails to install at c:\WINDOWS\system32\macromed\flas

    Up until a few months ago flashplayer worked perfectly fine!  Now, it seems like every site I go to asks me to download it.  Everything goes fine when I click on download and a box pops up to "install".  When I click on install, it starts install and stops every time on   "registering:  c:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10b.ocx"
    At this point I get the error message that tells me to go to adobe support and I have followed all of their instructions including uninstalling, downloading some SubInAcl thingy and another zip file and all that, I've reset my security settings, etc. etc.  I've emailed microsoft and adobe and haven't gotten anywhere with that.  Tonight I tried what the lady did with pasting that file onto my desktop and that didn't help me.  I also tried going into IE via safe mode and that didn't help.
    Anyone else have a suggestion???
    thanks, Gina

    This indicates that you have a newer version (11.8.800.175?) already installed, and you try to install an older version (11.8.800.174?) over it.
    What does your Control Panel / Programs & Features say is installed?

  • Adobe flash player either hangs or crashes in Firefox

    Adobe flash player either hangs up the web browser Firefox or crashes within Firefox.  This has been occurring for about a year even though Firefox and the adobe flash player have been updated and upgraded many times over the last year.  Multiple crash reports have been sent to either Adobe or Firefox (I am not sure which one actually gets the crash report) but it appears someone knows about this issue since I seem to be getting more pop up boxes from Firefox now when the Windows 7 system seems to hang (no response from mouse when I try to close the Firefox browser window).  The pop up box states that Adobe flash player is not responding or in a loop so when I respond to the pop up window to cancel the task all the flash player displays in all of the open Firefox browser sessions crash.  However, if I use google chrome and the same ESPN videos that use Adobe flash player so far I have not seen the same issue of hangs or crashes.  So, is this a known issue with Adobe flash player and/or Firefox or has it just never been fixed correctly?

    I use Firefox, which is a leading browser, I think we'd say, and I think I had far fewer plug-ins until I updated to the new Adobe Flash Player today.  As for your challenge to come up with a plugin, I'm a poor sucker who's developed nothing more in my lifetime that Word and Excel docs. I'm totally at the mercy of what all software developers throw at the public.  As for crap on my computer, I've tried to get rid of everything I can, crap or not, just in case it could affect Adobe Crash. Do you see anything here that looks suspicious?

  • Scam Flash Player Download Site

    Apologies in advance if this is posted to the wrong forum.
    Looking down the list, I couldn't find one that seemed more relevant.
    There is a scam Flash Player download site at:
    flashplayer.10-downloadcenter.com/
    Typing "flash," "flash player," "flash player 10," and other obvious search terms into Google brings the site up at the top of the page.
    It is using graphics that look very much like Adobe's trademarks which can lead people to believe the site is connected with Adobe.  They are also using phrases such as "Flash Player 10" that would appear to be Adobe trademarks.  The first time I looked at the site, I thought I was at an Adobe page because the trademark appeared to be there, and there was no notice that an Adobe trademark was being used - something one almost always sees at sites where a trademark in use is not owned by the site. If I were Adobe, I'd have my magnifying glass going over that site, looking for infringement.  (Who knows - maybe they've already looked ... )
    There is a lot of stuff on the page that could lead one to believe they are Adobe, offering enhanced software and services.  And - bingo - selling is what they are doing.  Get out your credit card to download their stuff - including Flash Player 9.
    The trick, when reading the fine print, is that they are selling "memberships."  I wonder how many people have downloaded Flash Player from this site, believing they are buying it directly from Adobe.  My niece did.  She's trying to get the charge removed from her credit card as I type this message.

    Further information regarding suspicious actions of this site.
    The site had been asked to cancel the transaction within two hours of it taking place.  Some of the charges involved extra "premium" software sold along with the "Flash Player 10" download.  An extra ~$10 for software that would supposedly increase download speeds greatly.  The software all turned out to be PC only, with no mention of there being no Mac version, and no place to check.  The site indicated that Flash Player 10 would be downloaded, but all that was available was Flash Player 9 - which was probably already on the machine.  One also has to wonder whether their versions don't have zombie payloads.
    An archive of the the purchase confirmation page was fortunately kept to save the confirmation numbers and other information.  Among the information on the page was the way the charge would appear on the charge card.  Checking the card company's invoice, no charge by that name existed.  But there was a charge with a completely different label for about the right amount.  Calling the (866) number got us to a phone center in India.  Sure enough, the mis-labeled charge was the charge in question. The customer service person said that the amount will be refunded within 7 days.  We'll see.
    Note that an immediate request for cancellation had been made, so the charge shouldn't even have appeared.  The site boasts a 7-day money-back guarantee.
    I hope that someone, somewhere, will look into this site.  I was looking for some kind of complaint link at Google, but haven't found one yet.  The site appears not only in the search results, but they run an ad at the top of the Google search page - very visible.
    Once again, I hope Adobe will take a look at this highly questionable site.

System preferences firewall is off and apps are allowed from anywhere and in Safari other plug ins are allowed and cookies are not blocked and pop up windows are not blocked. Why won't Flash Player download?

    Don't DL Flash from web sites. If you have Adobe Flash installed it should be in System Preferences and you can find the latest version and download from there.
    If you are installing for the first time,this is where to DL it.
