Solved: Problem downloading 4.1 update for Mac in Safari 5.1.7: Try Firefox.

The download worked in Firefox (don't know which version, since the auto update just jumped to version 13.0), having the correct file size.  But it did not have the correct download size in Safari 5.1.7.  The file also appears for download on the Adobe FTP site: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/lightroom/mac/4.x/Lightroom_4_LS11_mac_4 _1.dmg

So the Shockwave Flash plugin in FF is Installed and Enabled. That's why Flash Player is working and why you were able to see the Flash Player logo animation. On the other hand, evidently the Shockwave Flash plugin is either not Installed in Safari or if it is it is Disabled. And that is why it's not working and you can't see the Flash Player logo.
Yes, I know Flash Player can be Installed in any supported 64bit OS. Also I thot that the 64bit browser in Mac was the "default" browser and the "Compatibility layer" had to be used. Similiar to the PC IE8 or IE9, switching over to the Compatibility feature in the browser.
Do you need to activate the Compatibility feature?  I have had other Mac users tell me that their problem was they were using the 64bit browser and found out they had to use the 32bit browser, so I thot it was something they had to do. I would think if it was automatic they would not have had to "do" anything. But like I said I don't use Mac so can only relate what they tell me.
With Safari on either of the test sites, no Flash Player version was displayed?
Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have the below two files:
Flash Player.plugin, flashplayer.xpt
After that see if this thread is of any help: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2725949#2725949

  • Where can I download the initial update for Mac OS X 6

    I am still running Leopard and need all the subsequent updates to get the newest software.  PLEASE help me find a download for OS X 6.0

    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available at this time from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion is part of the 10.6.6 update.
    If you wait to long and they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.

  • HELP!! I'm having a problem downloading the newest updates for Missing e tumblr extension.

    I can't install the update, I've tried several times with no avail. I even restarted several times, even installed the latest beta version of firefox - firefox 9 but still can't update. I contacted the author Jeremy @ cuterlish.tumblr.com and he thinks it's an issue with Mozilla. So here I am. Please help me figure out a solution to this problem..it's pretty frustrating.
    Thanks!!

    An OS issue best dealt with in Lion Community, then I'd find the actual MacBook Pro forum and bookmark that.
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro
    By sounds of this assume you just use Safari.
    And you right click or follow onscreen instructions for manual download, as oppossed to via automatic or software update.
    Some programs and even plug-ins do have their own check for updates and download too.
    Looks easy enough from here

  • HT6030 I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update. Hmmmm.

    I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update.   Expect it's due to being at 10.9.1.  Mail is still teetering between dysfunctional and non-functional.  Advice?

    I'm not sure what "Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6" is. Mac OS X 10.5.6 is Leopard, a system that is quite old at this point. There have not been any Mail updates for Leopard in quite some time. If you are trying to install some old Mail update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 in Mavericks, that won't work.
    If you are trying to install the Mavericks Mail update manually, that's not necessary if you have updated through the App Store. If the App Store shows no updates, you don't need this. (The error message doesn't make sense, and may indicate some other problem with your system, assuming that you were downloading this update from Apple's site.)
    I'd advise you to start a new topic in the Mavericks forum and describe the problems you are having with Mail. Be sure to include specifics, but try to avoid speculating on causes, as responses that may be related to an inaccurate assumption on your part can cloud the issue.

  • Just got a Nikon D610 and CS5 for Mac can't open the images -- message says installed version of camera raw doesn't support the camera.  Downloaded the Raw 6.2 update for Mac, but installation failed. Now what?

    The D610 didn't get out-of-the-box RAW support until Photoshop CC.
    You can either upgrade to CC or use the DNG Converter to convert and open your DNGs in CS5.

  • Firefox has been unsuccessfully attempting to download a software update for a few days now... What's the problem?

    Firefox has been unsuccessfully attempting to download a software update for a few days now... What’s the problem?

    If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.<br />
    You may need to remove the Firefox program folder to do a clean install of the new version.
    Do a clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Camera Raw 6.7 Update for Mac OS 10.10:  Installation Failed error message.

    Camera Raw 6.7 Update for Mac:  Installation Failed error message.  Update downloaded directly from Adobe website.  Newly purchased Mac Workbook Pro, OS 10.10, using Photoshop CS5. Other updates successfully accomplished.  Camera Raw 6.7 Update was downloaded multiple times with multiple installation attempts. Any recommendations?

    thanks for the prompt response...i appreciate it.  according to the link you listed, that's correct.  the strange thing is that prior to the upgrad to mac os 10.8.4, photoshop CS5 was working just fine and i was able to open my canon raw files with my current camera raw plug-in version 6.7 which adobe has indicated is the last camera raw update they'll be offering for cs 5
    so it's clearly an issue related to the "upgrade" of the os.  seems like every solution creates 6 new problems...further evidence for the notion that if it ain't broke don't fix it!  thanks again.

  • Migration assistant update for Mac OS X Snow Leopard

    Hello -- I downloaded SNOW LEOPARD successfully that past week. I did a software update as well afterwards.
    Now in preparation for upgrading to LION OS X, I read an article that mentions one must make sure to have the MIGRATION ASSISTANT UPDATE for Mac OS X Snow Leopard installed. I am unsure if this was included in the software updates I performed. One would assume it would be there. BUT there is not a detailed listing of what these combination updates include. HOW can I tell if I have the desired version required to continue on to LION?
    Another suggestion was for one to perform FIRST AID on the start up disk. It only says to select your Mac HD and then to "verify" ..... do they mean to VERIFY DISK or VERIFY DISK PERMISSIONS. I have on occasion performed a REPAIR DISK PERMISSIONS but not the others mentioned. I do not know what the difference is?
    THANK YOU

    I have the same console mesages repeating ad-nasium as you do. What is interesting is I do have the StartuoItems directory but it is empty. The problem I have is that the log-in window comes up as normal, but I can not type in it for about 5-8 seconds. This has started after the latest updates which you mention. Don't know if this issue is related or not. Have deleted the loginwindows and loginitems preferences to no effect.

  • Is there a reason that I can't download the latest update for my iPhone 4? It downloads halfway and then stops.

    Have you ever jailbroken your iPhone with tether? Because if you have the jailbreak keeps a file on your phone making it so you can't update. To solve this problem your going to have to reset your phone.
