Should i install adobe flash player on macbook pro with OSX

Just purchased my first macbook pro, I am thinking of installing Adobe Flash Player but wasnt sure if this is good idea or not. Any suggestions?

Sure - most of the content on YouTube - and much of the video content on the web - uses Flash technology.
Just make certain that you get it straight from Adobe -> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.
Happy computing!

  • Installing adobe flash player to MacBook pro

    I am trying to install adobe flash player on a brand new Mac book Pro but it isn't downloading.

    Or here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Note that either link will get you a .dmg file downloaded onto your Mac. Double click to open. Inside is the installer program itself, which you must run and follow its instructions to complete the Flash installation.

  • Problem Installing Adobe Flash Player on Macbook Pro

    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.9.5 and I am trying to install the latest version of adobe flash player Version 16.0.0.235. The flash player shows up in my downloads, but the icon is different that what it is supposed to look like. When I double click on the download, a text file appears and I can only open the download through "Text Edit". I have tried everything and I can't figure out why this is happening. I have attached a picture of what the download looks like on my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated

  • Should i install adobe flash player?

    Should i install Adobe Flash Player. My youtube is requesting flash player.
    Thanks

    You should have no problem as long as you download it from www.adobe.com.
    Other site that you can download from may have loaded a bunch of adware to the Flash Player that can be a royal pain you know where.

  • Install Adobe Flash Player on MacBook Air

    I am trying to install Adobe Flash Player on MacBook Air and it stops at 98% stating that it needs to to close Safari browser, I close it and still it does not fully install it. 

    You need to close the Safari process, not only the browser window.
    If you don't know how to do that, restart your Mac, then run the downloaded installer before doing anything else.

    Hi Guys,
    Do you know how to install adobe flash player through command line with some script?
    Thanks,
    Galina

    Windows. I tried silent install  with "install_flash_player.exe /install" but it works only with one file that I downloaded from adobe.com - "install_flashplayer10_mssd_aih.exe". But it is possible to download this last file only one time, every next time it redirects me to download install_flash_player.exe file.

  • Should I install Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Air?

    Hello everyone
    I was wondering if I should install Adobe Flash Player.
    I watch YouTube a lot and use Safari 7.0.5 as my web browser of choice.
    I don't usually play many online games though.
    However, there are some sites I use that require Adobe Flash Player.
    Thanks for all the recommendations

    personally NO, unless you are using something that demands it.
    aside the spat between adobe and apple, it does grind and hog the processor to death - hence why apple decided not to 'support' it.
    -just take a look in activity monitor once it starts up.
    It (can) also leave vunerabliites to virus 'type' infections;
    IF you do indeed decide to load it up, be VERY carefull where you get it from, and ignore ANY POP UP message about updates etc -
    *ALWAYS* ONLY go Direct to the adobe flash site, never, never any other 3rd party site. both for install and updates.

  • Difficulty installing adobe flash player on macbook air os yosemite

    Hi.
    I recently bought a Macbook Air, which runs OS Yosemite, and I have tried to install Adobe Flash Player on it. I got to the part where it is installing, and then it says "Please close Safari". I did that, then clicked "Retry". It still said "Please close Safari". I waited a few minutes, and then clicked "Retry" again. Same result. Can anyone help me?

    Could you first try the steps outlined in this FAQ:

    If that doesn't help, please try this installer:

    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Version 11.0.1.152 onwards is for Lion.
    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.

  • How to install Adobe flash-player on Macbook mid 2007

    as I press "INSTALL" button (flash-player 11.2) nothing happens. I know that my computer does not match requirements of 11.2 version, but please let me know if there is a suitable solution for my case.

    If that requirement is significant that these flash players require 128MB of vram then I suppose this whole thing is an academic exercise with you having only 64MB.  Perhaps you can hunt down a version 10.x of the Adobe Flash installer (not sure where) but again whether that will work with lion is yet another question.  So you may be between a rock and a hard place trying to use flash with lion.
    I believe Chrome has flash support buillt in so maybe you should try that when needing to play flash videos.
