Security update Flash version for Mac OSX 10.5.8 won't install

I lost my ability to view Ustream live streaming and recorded videos on Sept. 12, 2013, in both Safari and Firefox. The screen is solid black, and if I right click I get "Movie not loaded..." I read about the Sept.10 Security Update for Flash Player, so I uninstalled version fp_10.3.183.90 and attempted to install version fp_11.7.700.242. The installation failed every time, so I returned to the older one. On Sept. 13 I downloaded Google Chrome and it worked, but today, Sept. 14, I see the message "Flash is out of date," and no video.
I have a Macmini2,1 with 1 Intel Processor and 2 Cores, made in 2007, I think. OS Leopard, 10.5.8 (64-bit). My Safari is version 5.0.6, Firefox 9.0.1 and Chrome 21.0.1180.90.
I spend a lot of time on Ustream, so this is a big setback... please help!

Firefox is on version 23.1 now (I believe it WILL run on Leopard), and Chrome is on 29 (I can't be sure of that because I've uninstalled it from EVERY LAST machine I own and will NEVER use it again).
THAT may have something to do with it. Safari 5 is the newest that will run on 10.5, and unfortunately the LATEST Flash Player WON'T run on Leopard.
The reason is that OS 10.5 was the LAST Universal Binary OS Mac released (it runs on Intel or Power PC Macs) Becaue of that, it uses a different acrhitecture and the Flash Player is different from an "Intel only" build. Websites will continue to update, requiring the latest Player, and that will lead to obsolescence of your Flash Player (and your OS). THAT'S the bad news.
The GOOD news is: Because your Mac is Intel powered, you can upgrade to Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.8) for $20 through Apple (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard), and THAT will allow you to run a LOAD of software that requires 10.6 or newer.

  • Leopard Security Update 2012-003 for Mac OSX 10.5.8

    I just discovered a Leopard Security Update 2012-003 in reading an article in MacWorld, but when I checked my computer, I found that I did not get it through Software Updates' check for updates. Is there something wrong with my Software Updates? Or is just that this must be manually downloaded by the user? My iMac is an Intel Mac.

    Hello Laura,
    Could you have SWUPD set to automattically get updates?
    Check Library>Reciepts at root of the drive, nit your user Library, & see if it's been installed.
    Also, if this is a PPC iMac it only was for Intel iMacs, since PPCs weren't able to get that FlashBack infection for one thing.
    If Intel, you coild always get it directly & re-apply it...

  • Reinstall Flash CS3 for Mac OSX

    Recently had to replace the hard drive on my Mac Book Pro. Data transfer to the new hard drive went well EXCEPT for my attempts to reinstall Flash CS3 and Flash Player (I'm forgetting the name of the latest and greatest version of the media player--forgive my temporary ignorance). I followed all of the procedures outlined in the ReadMe file. Have tried it several times to no avail. I keep getting an error message at the end of the reinstall process and the program will not open. All of the application files appear to be on my hard rive. Something is missing or needs to be repaired. I just don't know where to start to find out what needs to be repaired or replaced or updated. I suspect that because there have been numerous updates to Flash player, something related is interfering with the reinstall process. Any advice help would be appreciated.
    Cheers.

    Mike, thank you very much for your help. Luckily I have found the 
    right Flash version: 10.1.102.64

  • Flash fails for Mac OSX

    I just cannot install the free Flash Player 9 for Mac OSX
    (PowerPC). I get an "Access denied Error 1008:5,-5000" , then "You
    do not have enough access privileges for this installation". I've
    installed/uninstalled countless times and even tried to install
    older Player versions. No success.
    And when I access webpages viia my Safari 1.3.2 ( on Mac OSX
    10.3.9), any Flash content gets a box saying there's no MIME plugin
    "application/x-shockwave-flash". It then sends me to the Player
    download page all over again!
    I have Quicktime Pro 7.1.6 and have ticked all its MIME
    settings...
    So far nothing via Adobe or Apple has worked...
    Help! (another one for Adobe's Bentley Wolfe?)

  • HT5130 Unable to  install Security Update 2012-001 for Mac OS 10.6.8

    Have just tried to install Security Update 2012-001 for Mac OS 10.6.8 and get message saying cannot download. Download stalls at Zero kB downloaded. Dialog says an error occurred during download.
    Internet connection is fine and first time denial has occurred.

    Looking at all the posts about the deficiencies of this update, you may have just lucked out, especially if you are, like many of us, still running PowerPC programs under Rosetta.

  • Since downloading Security Update 2012, Word for Mac no longer able to save or save as documents;  program freezes after clicking save

    Since downloading Security Update 2012, Word for Mac 2004 is no longer able to Save or Save As documents.  After clicking Save or Save As, the program ceases to respond and must be Force Quit.  Any tips on making Word functional again?

    There was a second Security Update (v1.1).  Did you download that one.  It was supposed to have fixed the problems created by the prior update.  At least is solved my problems with Quicken 2007 for Mac and AppleWorks 6.

    Looks like Apple did the same thing with Lion that Microsoft did with Vista. Brought it on the market before it was ready.
    I run a MacBook Pro and upgrading to Lion caused me two days of trouble and computer crash. Router settings removed and router blocked. Dongle not recognised, you name it.
    In the end, I gave up and using my Snow Leopard installation disk and a Time Machine Backup finally got my computer up and running again. Thanks to Lion, I think I'll stay with OS X 10.6.8 at least it's reliable.

  • Flash player version for mac osx 10.5.8

    have downloaded flashplayer removal update and restarted computer. what version of flash player do I now download for mac osx 10.5.8. i have dedicated today to sort this out please help me!

    I think you need a 10.x version (probably 10.3.183.10).
    Here's Adobe's Archive of old flash players.  Scroll down.  There's a 10.3.183.20 in the list.  It downloads a zip with both windows and mac versions.  After expanding you can fish out the mac version.

  • Flash Player for Mac OSX 10.5.8

    I've been trying to find the right flash player to install on my mac osx 10.5.8 using safari. I can't play video on youtube or facebook because it says im missing plug-in. This issue keeps coming up. I have in the past few months uninstalled the version i had and installed an older version of flash 10.1 but then that stopped working a few days ago, and now nothing works. I have tried uninstalling old versions,and searched every forum about this but i cant find an answer.Does anybody have an answer to this issue?

    Hi Lindsey;
        This fix was for a mac PPC not intel. I did get this email you can
    try and see if this will help.
    Mark & everybody else, I found this fix on youtube, I tested the above
    page Lotus Cars - Lotus Esprit
    <http://www.lotuscars.com/en/new-lotus-esprit> and on facebook & it
    worked. Go to Flash Player fix for Mac PPC - YouTube
    <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCrAKhv3R_c> then click where it says
    "Show more" below the video & click on the link or click here to
    download http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip
    Vincent, that Tenfourfox maybe fast but, won't let any plugins work with
    their browser.
    Hope this helps,
    Paul
    Go and watch this on youtube. All the best.

  • Mac OSX 10.5.4 won't install

    Hey, i've got a macbook pro, and every time my automatic update tries to install the new update for the OS, and I always get this message:
    The Update "Mac Os X Update Combined" can't be installed.
    The installer could nat validate the contents of the "Mac OSUpdCombo10.5.4" package. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
    And by the way, everything else installs just fine, but this hasn't been installing for months on end now. What is going on and what do I need to do???

    Have you tried deleting your existing download of "Mac OSUpdCombo10.5.4" and downloading and installing a fresh copy from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1054comboupdate.html ?

  • Adobe Flash CS3 trial version for Mac

    At the end of Part 1: "Building a banner" tutorail from
    "Using Flash for the first time", "Testing your progress" doesn't
    work : a message tells thet the name is too long, whereas this name
    is "anner.fla", or the destination folder is locked, it's not the
    case.

    Yeap, as Steve says...
    Your best bet, if you really want to run the current trial
    version on
    your IntelMac, is to load BootCamp or Parallels and install
    (!) Windows
    on your Mac, which will then likely allow you to run
