Problem with finishing install of Flash Player on a Mac. When finishing by entering the requested password, the dialog box jiggles as if the p/w is invalid. But it works in the Adobe site.

I am trying to install Flash player on my Mac. All the steps are working as they should, until the point where I am asked to enter my password. I do this, and the dialog box jiggles as through the p/w were invalid. However, it works to sign in to the Adobe site. I just changed it to be sure and checked again.

There is no password required to download or install the Flash Player. Chances are your Mac is requiring you to enter its password to allow the installation to occur.

Hi Blanca rey
You Can try Uninstalling Flash Player using - Uninstall Flash Player | Mac OS
and Use the Offline Flash Player Installer for Mac (Safari and Firefox) from here - Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac
Hope it helps,
While you try the above suggestion, can you also share the Version of Mac on which you are updating Flash Player and how are you doing it?
Thanks

Problem with N900' browser- "Update Flash Player" ...

My Default browser doesnt play online VDO's anymore. It tells me get Flash player from Adobe site. When I go there and when I downloaded the ".deb" file. The package didnt install properly and gave an error. What should I do?

Adobe make two types of plugins
First is Flash for a platform.. This is flash for Windows, for Linux, for Android..
If you have a device running a compatible platform, you can download and use flash
Adobe also works with manufacturers to produce one off versions:
Flash for the N900, Flash for the N810, Flash for the N800, Flash for Archos media players
These versions are 99.9% of the time released with the product they were designed for, then forever left to rot.
This second method is incredibly bad for the end user. Imagine if it were Flash for Dell laptops, not Flash for Windows.... If you bought a HP laptop you're out of luck.. If you have an old Dell you're out of luck.. It just wouldn't work
The question is, will Meego see Flash for Meego.. or will the continue with the lame "Flash for this specific version of meego and only on this vendors hardware" approach..
If so, the version of flash that comes with the Nokias first Meego device will not be licensed to run on older Nokia devices, so the N900 will be out of luck
(This happened with the older internet tablets.. no back porting of flash allowed or supported)
We will almost certainly never see Flash 10 for the N900 from Nokia or adobe... let alone an updated Flash 9 that fixes the security vulnerabilities present in the N900 flash plugin today!

Problem with displaying text in flash player

I have flash player 10.2.152.26 and opera 11.01 installed.
The problem is that text in flash is diplayed in an awful way like this:
http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/6918/alljo.png
And when i choose "settings" the window appears, but it doesn't react when I click on it.
Can anyone help, please?

Thanks for answering
So you have IE8 and the hardware acceleration was able to be UNchecked and FP(Flash Player) is working properly with IE.
In IE flash works fine with any settings.
When I unchecked "Hardware acceleration" checbox in IE it also became unchecked in opera, but nothing changed in opera's behavior.
When you don't use the Aero it's displayed correctly but the settings do not work. What settings are you referring to?
It's about flash settings in Opera
With aero: http://img443.imageshack.us/i/settingsh.png/
Without aero: http://img816.imageshack.us/i/settingswoaero.png/
In both cases the settings dialog is displayed like in the screenshots above, but when I click on checkbox/tabs/'close' button in it nothing happens. I can't change any settings or close it (dialog disappers only after reloading page)
Just to sum up everything mentioned above:
- In IE flash works fine regardless of any settings
- In Opera text is displayed wrong when using windows aero, and without aero theme it's displayed correct
- I didn't manage to make settings dialog work in Opera
- When I change some flash settings in IE, they are also changed in Opera
Now Flash Player works thru the browser, do you have perhaps have an addon that is conflicting? What Anti-Virus do you have Installed? Any addons of that?
I have 7 extensions installed in Opera, I've disabled all of them, but nothing changed.
I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2011, disabling it also gives nothing.

Problem with latest download of Flash Player?

I have a laptop purchased in Autumn 2011 which is Windows 7. I've upgraded to the latest Flash Player but it won't work. I can't understand why I've downloaded the lastest version but it won't work when I try to view I Player or upload photos to Facebook. Do you have any idea why Flash Player is on the computer but won't work?

Hi,
Please try the steps I described here - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5388448#5388448

Problems with Safari, Firefox and Flash player

Ever since I got my new iMac that has Snow Leopard I've had problems with Safari and Firefox freezing or crashing. It appears that part of the problem is the Flash plugin because sometimes a screen pops up and says something like: the flash script is having problems. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling Flash, Safari and Firefox but the problem is still there. My browser seems to hang up or freeze a lot no matter if I use Safari or Firefox.
Any ideas?
I just discovered the Chrome browser from Google this morning and so far its working very well. No freezes and it appears to handle Flash video without any problems.
How can that be?
Thanks

Ah! The proverbial missing information. Why the regrets? Most people are having no issues migrating from previous computers; it's the preferred method. See Best Practices and Setup new Mac. You're a long way from starting over.

WHen Adobe flash player wants to store data firefox will not let me respond tothe dialog box?/fiadobe flash player settings dialog boxes not reponding

After I installed Adobe Flash 14.0.0.0.25 when I access a site that wants to store data locally, I am presented with a dialog box that gives me options: allow, deny, specify the isite. However, regardless of what I click nothing happens. it is almost like Firefox doesn't "see" the click. I went into Adobe settings manage and added the site as trusted, but that did nothing...

Best is to allow Flash local storage globally and use the defaults.

Help needed installing Flash Player Update on Mac

I am trying to install a flash player update on Mac - right now the one site I'm trying to use says flash is out of date. Will not accept my adobe password, reset it through the adobe site and still will not work. Tried Chat help and agent said to reset password through the Apple screen. When I try that it asks for apple id and password but there is only a place for the password. Any suggestions.

Hi,
This is the OS (Apple) prompting for the password, not Flash Player, therefore, the password is your Apple password, not Adobe ID password. Please see What userid & password do I need to install Flash Player?

RTMP Netstream NOT working with latest version of flash Player

Let me preface this by saying: This is definitely a bug either with latest Adobe Flash Player or the streaming Media Server (in this case Real Helix):
In the latest version of the Flash player (10.1.82.76) Code that worked previously in version 10.1.53.64 does not work now. This is basic code to connect to an RTMP server (Real Helix) using Netstream class. NOW the video does not even display and there is no error message . THIS ONLY OCCURS in a BROWSER . Also I am using swfobject to display the flash and I tried with latest version and the old 1.4.1 version.
Adobe please look into this, Is this possibly a problem with Real Helix OR Flash Player itself......I can't imagine nobody has come across this before?!
private function init():void
            video = new Video();
            NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding = ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
            nc = new NetConnection();
            nc.client = this;
            nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,checkConnect);
            nc.connect(rtmppath);
        //---BEGIN: Video Handling methods ----------------------------------------------
        private function onBWDone():void
        private function checkConnect (e:NetStatusEvent):void
            trace(flag_Running);
            if(flag_Running)
              return;
            var msg:Boolean=false;
            msg = (e.info.code=="NetConnection.Connect.Success");
            flag_Running=true;
                if (msg)
                    ns = new NetStream(nc);
                    ns.client = {onMetaData:ns_onMetaData, onCuePoint:ns_onCuePoint,onPlayStatus:ns_onPlayStatus,netStatus:onNetStatus};
                    ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
                    ns.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioErrorHandler);
                    ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,onNetstreamStatus); //only handles errors right now
                    //vidDisplay is a Video object in the library (Video - actionscript controlled)
                    vidDisplay.attachNetStream(ns);
                    // set the smoothing value from the constant
                    vidDisplay.smoothing = SMOOTHING;
                    setVolume(DEFAULT_VOLUME);
                    bolLoaded = true;
                    trace("NetConnection.Connect.Success");
                    cur_state = STATE_CONNECTED;
                    callback(MESSAGE_TYPE_VID_INIT_DONE,null);
                else
                    trace("Load Video Failed: NetStatusEvent " + e.info.code);
                    callback(MESSAGE_TYPE_ERROR,null,"Load Video Failed: NetStatusEvent " + e.info.code);

This is confirmed as a REAL HELIX Bug. Here is what I recevied from them:
This has already been fixed (not yet released). For existing servers to work with the
latest Flash player (10.1.82.76) you need to add the following to the top level of
your server config file
<List Name="RTMP">
   <List Name="Scheme2">
       <List Name="Versions">
           <Var v1="0x80000702"/>
       </List>
   </List>
</List>
I put this in the config file and restarted the server, and it worked!

How can I install Adobe flash player on my Mac using Safari OR Chrome? I have gone through every step on all of the help pages. The installation process always stops with the black box that briefly says, "Retrieving Install . . . ", then nothing.

I have followed every step in the various help pages I was directed to when troubleshooting the inability to install Adobe Flash Player on my Mac using either Safari or Chrome. Everything has failed. I always get the black box that says briefly, "Retrieving instal. . . " and then goes blank. When I close that window, I get the message, "Adobe Flash Player could not be installed." Then it gives some links to follow for troubleshooting. I have followed ALL of the links there and on other help pages, to no avail. I've run into problems installing Adobe before, but it's never been this bad. Would someone please develop another format besides Adobe? Trying to get help from Adobe feels a little like trying to find a building in New York City with no map or GPS. The time required is voluminous, the emotional energy a/k/a frustration is overwhelming, and long before I get anything resolved, I wish the earth would open up and swallow all things Adobe@. Absence that miraculous intervention, I have to figure out what to do next. Does anyone know? Anyone?

For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working. Can anyone help me get it working?

It happened w/ my MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon about 5 months ago; tried everything I could think of including multiple downloads of Flash, and hadn't seen any solutions here. Adobe insisted many times that I download & update, but the newest vers. wouldn't work on the computer.
On checking Adobe/Flash was reading the computer as being an earlier model. So the new version of Flash wouldn't work w/ it. Snow Leopard 10.6.8 was being read correctly but not the computer model (can't remember what MP model it was reading).
Nothing worked. So -- a very old PC trick: If nothing else works get the hammer out and bludgeon it-- might work. So I reset everything by putting the Snow Leopard install disk in, held down 'C' on restart and let it run.
Didn't take anything off the HDD first, just ran the install disk over everything.
The experts on the forums are probably cringing right now & I'd like very much for them to jump in. Love to know how my computer model was being mis-read. All I can say is, for the brave and desparate, it worked for me. Something to keep in mind.
It helped that I had a new computer on order & have 2 backups, one being mandatory. Might work only the one time but worth a check.
Good luck on working this one out.
