Problems installing Flash player on my mac

I tried to install the latest version of flash on my i-mac. It didn't work so I followed the directions and uninstalled the old version. Now I cannot install the new version. The icon just bounces in the dock and won't respond. I've tried shutting down, restarting, clearing the caches, etc. Now Software Update won't work and neither will Quicktime. I've removed Firefox and am just running Safari 5.1. Did I f**k things up by uninstalling flash from my system? Help!

Hello,
This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer, OR
Download the stand-alone installer posted at the bottom of the http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.html in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
Thank you,
Chris

Mount problem installing Flash Player 9 on Mac

I'm trying to install Flash Player 9 on a Mac running 10.1.5 with a Power PC processor. I get the following error message "Could not mount install_flash_player_9.mg". Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.
Steve

I am running OS X, and I just installed flash player 9. I am
not able to look at any flash sites anymore. I have been
installing, reinstalling, uninstalling and nothing seems to work. I
am not very computer saavy, but i can normally figure these thing
out. Adobe is no help at all. I feel as though I should reinstall
everything over again on my mac. Please let me know if it is
possible to fix this bug.
Have you had any response Bill? Is there a mac help forum for
this?

Trying to install flash player on a Mac. I keep getting an error message that I need to close Safari to continue, when Safari isn't open at the time. How do get past this impediment?

What Pat said:
Open Safari
From the upper-left of the screen, choose Safari > Quit Safari
You can now proceed with the installation.

I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8

I can't install flash player on my mac 10.6.8, it supposedly downloads but then I can't find it, when I search for flash player in downloads in the finder, I get three choices:
1. Adobe flash player install manager: when I click on this, the options are either to quit or uninstall.
2. Flash Player: when I click on this, it shows me Flash Player in the finder, when I click on that, it leads me to install it again.
3. Install Adobe Flash Player: just taked me back to install it again.
But it never seems to install or open.
Any help would be great, thanks!!

Problems installing flash player. Learner

I am experienceing problems installing flash player. I go to the adobe website and install the program and I am told it has been successfully installed. No flash player icon apppears on my desktop. When I press the windows start icon and click on "all programs" there is no evidence of the flash player. However when I click on" my computer" icon and go into uninstall/change the flash player program is there.I have spent quite some time installing, uninstalling and installing again without success
I am using windows Vista. I am also using Kaspsersky Internet security. It is a private computetr so I do not think I need administrators permission. I have tried installing flash player using both interner explorer and Mozilla firefox.Please can anyone help. Many thanks.

Shane, since you must be having problems getting a thread started, I'll just go ahead and try to help you here.
Use IE and go to Help and click on About Internet Explorer. It should tell you sp1 or sp2.
Also using IE, go to Tools, click on Manage add ons and look in all add ons for Shockwave Flash Object. Let me know if it is Enabled and if it is version 10.0.45.2 or says Flash10e.ocx.
Then switch over to FF (Firefox) and find the plug-in SWF version 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is listed and Enabled.
Post this info back to me.
Thanks,

I cannot install flash player on my MAC - (osx 10.8.4) - it downloads 50%, then clicks to "finish"

I cannot install flash player on my Mac - running OSX 10.8.4 and Safari 6.0.5. The progress bar show is as downloading to 50%, then converts to "installing" and immediately goes to 100% and says it's installed. But it's not. I get another Adobe Flash installer icon on my desktop instead. Help!

Hello,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
First, remove Adobe Flash Player completely using Flash Player uninstaller for MAC : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
Download offline installer for Adobe Flash Player (MAC) from here : http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
Once the file is downloaded, run the installer

hi there.
When i try to install flash player in my mac, it keep asking me to remove safary.
how do i install abods flash player?
thanks for your help

You need to quit Safari before Flash can be installed. No need to remove Safari.
With Safari open, from the menu bar click Safari > Quit Safari
Then proceed with the Flash installation.
When you are done installing Flash, you can re launch Safari.

When I try to install flash player on my mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, and it will not take my password. tried changing to a new password and same result

When I try to install flash player on my Mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, but it will not take my password. Tried changing the password, but same result. Suggestions??

This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt. If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

Installed Flash player on my Mac osx 10.5.8 but doesn't work

The installation went fine. I've actually installed it over and over again. But programs that require it (show up as a browse button for photos) don;t work. I can't see where the flash player is installed on my computer either. Please help. Thanks, Hilary

Call Apple and file a formal complaint, it's Apple that is not supplying security or patches to 10.5 users and expects everyone to be computer guru's.
16.5% of Mac users are on 10.5 and Apple just denies security and stability updates to force you to upgrade your OS or your hardware prematurely.
There is a massive botnet of over 600,000 Mac's and the prime location is on 10.5 Intel Mac's which they refuse to fix.
Appe's "solution" is for you to upgrade your operating system to 10.6 or even 10.7 (this will make your machine slow and won't run a lot of your software, another "problem")
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
IMO 10.6 would be best for you, the least trouble, but you bought a Mac for it to "just work" as your not "into" computers, your just a regular user like most Apple's customers.
So call Apple and complain, then buy the 10.6.3 retail disk and stick it into your machine and upgrade and cross your fingers and update to 10.6.8.
Backup your persona data off the machine first to a storage drive and disconnect.
 Most commonly used backup methods explained
Once your on 10.6.3 use software update to get to 10.6.8, then you can install Flash.

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?
