Please Help! I tried to upgrade Flash Player, but have older computer

Please Help! -- I tried to upgrade FLASH PLAYER, but I have an older MAC laptop OS X 10.4 = Version 4.1.3 (4533.19.4). 
I need to UPGRADE Flash Player; however it's not available -- Recently, I cannot watch some videos or access particular websites.
I'm a teacher, and CAN'T AFFORD to buy  a new computer at this time.
> Can Adobe Corp. please help by offering an expanded range of UPGRADE support ??

Unfortunately, if you're running OS 10.4, odds are that your Mac is a PowerPC model (-About This Mac will let you know for certain), and the newest version that will run on your system is Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and 9.0.289.0 (126 MB)
That's a direct link to the download, you can right click (or control+click) and save it to your downloads folder. Expand it with Stuffit Expander and run the 10.102.64 installer.
That's the best that can be hoped for because if your Mac is PowerPC, and I suspect it is, even Apple no longer supports it since September of 2009. The next OS X version (10.5) won't run the latest Player either. You'd need an Intel Mac with 10.6.3 or newer to use Flash Player 11.8.800.94.
PowerMax does have some really good deals on "pre owned" Macs. I've bought three from them myself over the years.

  • Please help -- How can I install flash player plugin (version 8) in browser without downloading setup or redirecting to macromedia site if flash plugin is not available in browser

    Hi,
    Please help
    How can I install flash player plugin (version 8) in browser
    without
    downloading setup or redirecting to macromedia site if flash
    plugin is not
    available in browser
    Thanks

    Via Javascripting. Look for Flash detection kits at the
    Adobe/Maromedia web
    site and also at Internet search engines.
    As well this forum focuses on database access issues and you
    might find more
    takers for this type of question in the Flash General forum.

  • Can someone please help to figure out why Flash player won't download to my system???

    When I go into facebook I have to download flash player every time. This has been going on for about 6 months.  I have tried to get help but can not seem to get it figured out.  Last week when I downloaded it started to say it was finished but wasn't in the system and now I can't play games on facebook at all.  Please someone help.

    That means you do not have Flash Player on your system at all.
    Download the offline installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header and save it to disk, then close all browser windows and run the downloaded installer.

  • Please help me download and install Flash Player!

    One day, I had no problems viewing Flash on my computer. Then
    one day last week, it told me I needed to download Flash Player 8
    to view The Vine on E!Online. I haven't been able to download Flash
    Player 8 or 9. Or anything from this site, for that matter.
    I went here (
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoi d=BIOW),
    clicked download. Clicked the yellow strip that appeared to install
    the Active X control or whatever it's called. A pop-up asked if I
    wanted to install or do not install. I clicked install, then
    nothing happens. No download box shows up or anything.
    I've un-installed my flash player (if i even had one) and
    have tried so many times to download a new flash player.
    PLEASE HELP!

    ive uploaded the exe file to my server, so
    go
    here and save it to your comp, unzip the file, and run the
    program.

  • I cant see flash files on youtube, i upgrade flash player but firefox disable it because of security, how can i force anable it

    I use firefox 3.5.7. I cant see youtube videos because firefox show me an errror that you must upgrade your flash player, I follow the link and upgrade my flash player successfully, but firefox repeat its error massage in restart.
    I use firefox help and see that firefox disable my outdated flash player because of safety. I want to enable that plugin
    I hope to help me

    Hi barb, well for one thing the vs of Flash Player is the old one. You need to update to the latest version which is 10.0.42.34.
    The first link should be http://www.gourdlamps.com/presentations; that one and the other one work fine for me.
    It could be that those two websites have updated to 10.0.42.34.
    Here is the Adobe Uninstaller that you download and put on your Desktop http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    This is the Installer link for IE and you will SAVE this to your Desktop
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
    Then go to this thread and follow my instructions, except use the links I gave you. The procedures are the same.
    Before you do any of this, take a look at the Uninstall article and the last two NOTES. They are very important when uninstalling IE. The last NOTE: Use the "See Details" If you see the old version of 10.0.32.18 still there, follow those instructions in that NOTE.
    Thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/561702?tstart=0  (If you have a problem with the link, look for the thread
    "NPSWF32.dll error...." on the first page of the Flash forum.)
    Also one other difference is after Adobe confirms you have the 10.0.42.34 installed, you would go to the manage add ons
    and look for Shockwave Flash Object.....ActiveX Control......Flash10d.ocx ...... make sure that is listed and it is Enabled.
    Java: If you have any old Java entries in your Add/Remove, Remove them via the Add/Remove process, wait until the entry no longer appears and when you are finished, Reboot. You can do this and install the Java before Uninstalling & Installing. Link to Java JRE 6 update 18 : http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
    If you have any questions, just post back.
    Thanks,

  • Tried installing new Flash Player but it doesn't work.

    I went to view a video online and it said i needed an new version of Flash player so i clicked on the link and i downloaded the newest version.  I unistalled all of my old Adobe versions first.  It said installation complete but now EVERYTHING that used Flash before (Pandora, You Tube, Hulu, etc) doesn't work.  I keep trying to uninstall and re-install but nothing changes.  My adobe reader works, but not Adobe Flash. HELP!!

    Hi, You didn't say what operating system or browser(s) you are using. If you are using IE, go to your manage add ons
    and look for Shockwave Flash Object..and see if Flash10e.ocx is listed with it and it is Enabled. If you use FF, find the plug-in SWF and it is 10.0.45.2 and enabled.
    You can also check your Flash files to see if all of the old FP was removed and the new was installed.

  • I have a mac computer.  I am trying to install flash player but get the message "install adobe flash player wants to make changes.  Type your password to allow this." I do not use a password to open the computer.

    I have a mac computer that uses no password.  When installing flash player I get the message "Install adobe flash player wants to make changes  Type your password to allow this.  I can't get past this message.

    Hi,
    To change your password you will need to open System Preferences, then open Users & Groups, click on Change Password.  Change your password to a temporary one, then when you have finished you do the same procedure to change it back, by typing in the temp password then leaving the new password blank.  Hope this helps.

  • I am trying to update Flash player but is not working...

    Why the Lates version of Flash player is not working on my computer? I am unable to watch online videos, and have constant massage on YouTube to get the latest version of Flash Player (which I have).

    This forum is for troubleshooting Apple Software Update for Windows, a software package for Windows designed to update Apple products that run on Windows, and not related to Adobe Flash in any way. I suggest you post Adobe related questions on their own forums for their Mac products.

    When I run the Adobe test at
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/
    it says
    I have it successfully installed. The site in question won't
    work in MSIE
    or in FF. I've run through all the steps in Tech Note at :
    www.adobe.com/go/tn_19166. This particular problem is cited
    in the section
    saying it's a damaged windows system registry or incorrect
    permissions in
    the registry. The fix is supposed to be to downlad SubInACL
    from Microsoft
    to fix permission issues that prevent the Flash Player
    installeation
    (TechNote fb1634cb).

  • Please help! Error on Excel on iPhone, but fine on computer.

    Excel sheet on iPhone displays #VALUE! in rankings column, but that same excel sheet displays the rankings fine on Mac.

    I found these back on early message board entries. Maybe they will help.
    We recommend a download manager for users who have trouble with very large downloads. Getright (www.getright.com) is a good one for Windows, others are in the FAQ.
    You might want to disable the 'automatic' launching of getright and then just copy and paste the URL into Getright after you manually launch it. eg. Navigate OTN all the way until you get to an actual download URL (download.oracle.com) and then launch getright and paste that into the application.
