Still Flash not working

I have a Mac with 10.5.8 Using Safari. I have been through these forums multiple times. I have followed the instructions given to me on the Adobe site to the tee. I have Uninstalled Flash , I have installed flash. I have tried installing Shockwave. I have checked for permission issues. All this happened all of a sudden in mid day. It was all working fine. Now unless I delete flash internet plug in or use the uninstaller, I cannot use any browser, safari or firefox. It will just crash and tell me there is a problem with the flash internet plug in. The box in my browsers are checked for internet plug ins. All settings that I can find are correct according to everything I have read so far. Anybody out there still having this issue?

Hi, I am not familiar with the Mac, however sometimes with the Firefox browser there are 2 plug-ins for the Shockwave
Flash and one has to be removed. You may want to check that this isn't the case with your plug-ins. This happens during the Uninstall. Now in IE this doesn't happen, what happens there is the old Shockwave Flash Object is not removed at all.
It's an ActiveX Control and works differently though.
Just something to check out.
It does appear that more Mac users are experiencing problems right now, not sure why.
I wouldn't do any more Uninstalling/Installing until you pinpoint the problem.
Let me know what you find out.
Thanks,
eidnolb

Exactly where did you download Flash from, if you did not download it from
http://get2.adobe.com/flashplayer/
you did not get an authorized version.
If you did and it still does not work then you should be in touch with one of the Flash Player or Adobe help forums, because it's an Adobe product they would know best how to troubleshoot issues.

Flash not working in Safari 5

Flash has been buggy for me in Safari 5, ever since I updated the Flash player last week to "10.1 r53". Either Flash files don't play at all, or just the audio plays without video.
Per the instructions on these boards, I have:
1. reset Safari
2. uninstalled flash player
3. installed the flash player
4. repaired permissions
5. restarted
The issue is still there. Firefox plays Flash files, YouTube, etc. just fine. Safari does not.
I'm running SL 10.6.4, latest Software Updates.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I created a new account. Flash works in the new account. That's cool, but I really don't want to re-locate all my prefs, etc., just for a buggy plugin.
So, I next...
1. grabbed the Safari plist from the new account
2. logged out of the new account
3. logged into the old account (where Flash does not work)
4. moved the old account's com.apple.safari plist file out of the Preferences folder
5. moved the clean Safari plist file (from the new account) into the Preferences folder
6. reset and restarted Safari
7. Flash worked...for about two minutes. I tested on YouTube, Vimeo and Google Analytics. Back to Flash not working in Safari.
I then tried repeating the earlier steps.
1. reset Safari
2. uninstall flash player
3. install flash player
4. repaired permissions
5. restarted
Still doesn't work.
Just one other thing to note: whenever I pull up a web page with Flash, I get a "file not found" error in Safari's activity monitor (link is below)...could this be an error with Adobe's website rather than a Safari-permission thing?

Flash not working in photo booth.

The flash in photo booth on my iMac is not working. When I take a pic, the screen flashes but the pic is still dark. Was working fine yesterday. I did install the latest osx today. That's the only changes since then.

In case anyone is interested in your screen flash not working in the Yosemite or Maverick photo booth application, I finally called Apple today and he kept insisting it was working on his - I asked him to take a pic with the screen flash enabled and then disable it and he said it came out the same. And rationalized that it was because he was in a well lit room. I kept telling him in my old photo booth from system 10.6.8 that my face was lit up and my husband had reflections from his glasses so we went from him wanting me to reinstall my software (I refused since both computers were having the same problem - one using Yosemite and the other using Maverick) to him finally going into HIS partitioned disk that has system 10.6.8 on it to discover that the flash there reflected off HIS glasses too. Bottom line is he admitted there has to be some flaw that prevented the photo booth flash from working for Maverick and Yosemite. Whew, finally validation!

This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Adobe Flash not working with OS X 10.9.4

I have a Macbook pro with OS X 10.9.4 . For some reason Adobe Flash is not working even though is is properly installed and updated. I tried uninstalling Flash and then reinstalling it. It still does not work. Whenever I am on a site that requires Flash for a video it just tells me that I do not have it. I recently removed some adware and Malware from my computer so I am not sure if that has anything to do with it. Any suggestions?

Using Safari ?
If so, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
Select: Allow Plug-ins
If Allow Plug-ins was already selected troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, from your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click Delete All under Browsing Data and Settings
Not empty the Safari cache.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
Now try a video.

Adobe Flash Not Working Firefox 21

I just installed Firefox's newest version 21. I went to a website which required flash and it said I did not have flash installed. So I installed flash from adobe's website and it said it installed successfully I went back to the website after restarting my browser and it still did not work. I restarted my computer and nothing. I reinstalled flash again and it still does not work even though adobe is telling me it installed successfully.

I am very frustrated by the same problem but using W32 not W64. Immediately after upgrading from FF 19 to 21 videos showed this message "Cannot play media. You do not have the correct version of the flash player. Download the correct version".
I downloaded uninstall, latest flash player plugin for FF and ActiveX version for IE 9. Ran FF Flash Player uninstall then plugin install for FF and also ActiveX version for IE9. IE9 works but FF does not. I have been searching for and trying solutions over the past 3 days but no success. I have ensure Javascript is working OK, temporarily disabled Adobe Reader plugin and other plugins one at a time to see if this would resolve the problem. Still not working & very frustrating. Also have tried re-installing FF19 and previous version of Flash Player plugin for FF without success as well as clearing FF cache.
I have noticed that after installing Flash Player plugin for FF, whereas IE9 with ActiveX version had been working, it no longer does, so I had to re-install ActiveX version which fixed IE9 again. This suggests there’s an incompatibility somewhere as previously both IE9 and Firefox v19 worked OK.
After running Flash Player plugin uninstall for FF then plugin install it returns a "Successfully installed" message but Flash Player still does not appear in the FF plugin list and does not work.
I've seen so many similar complaints I’m sure there must be a FF expert somewhere who can tell me what I have to do to get Flash Player working with v21.0?
Flash player has all this time worked OK on Chrome. The reason I need it working on FF, IE & Chrome is because I manage an interactive website containing videos and any changes I make I test on all 3 browsers so I know all 500 members are OK.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE!!

Flash not working

I have been checking out some youtube videos, with no problems and they use flash, or java. However, I tried to open this one video and it said that I needed to update my flash player. So I did, but could not open up this particular video I was wanting to see but also now, no videos play. All the ones I have previously viewed no longer work and I just get a "Q" with the "?" over it. Websites that I frequent often that use flash (youtube.com, freedomainradio.com, yahoo are the big ones) now no longer work properly when they have previously loaded flawlessly. They all have various parts of the page blocked out now with "Q"s and "?"s.
I also tried IE but it has the same problems. I have not downloaded Firefox...yet, but I would like to solve this rather than abandon my browser since, as I said, Safari ran like a champ until I installed this latest version of flash. I also did as the Safari help suggested and turned off the pop-up blocker and enabled java and java script. Nothing...I did Sys Pref>QT>Enable Flash...still nothing.
I even uninstalled flash and re-installed it. I have a MacMini Power PC G4 and loaded the Power PC specific .dmg file from the flash download center and still nothing. I uninstalled again and then tried the one for the Intel and nothing there either. I check my Safari plug-ins and when I install flash it shows that it is indeed an installed plug-in but still does not work. I haven't tried Rosetta yet but I thought that was only for Intels to use Power PC stuff. Correct me if I'm wrong though. However, as I said, I have never had this problem until I installed the newest version of flash yesterday. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Michael, I have the exact same problem. How do you change MIME settings? Which ones did you change and what did you change them to? Call me at 831-338-1954 if that's easier.

Flash not working on some sites.

Hello, I have an hp dv6 laptop. I'm running windows 7 64 bit and using IE 11 32 bit version. I have the latest flash version installed. I have enabled the shockwave flash add on and unchecked active x filtering. However, I'm still having problems playing flash content. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Ok so I uninstalled ie11 and went back to ie9. Flash still did not work right. So, I reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled windows 7 with ie 9. Now, flash works right! I updated to the latest version of flash and still everything worked great! Then, I upgraded to ie 11 and guess what, flash doesnt work right anymore! So I uninstalled the update and went back to ie9 and flash still doesnt work right. Now what? Do I have to reinstall windows again? Please help!

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

Apple, as I said, does not repair your iPhone. All hardware service issues are handled by replacing the unit. So they can't handle the home-button issue without also addressing the issue of the cracked screen, for which they'll almost certainly charge you. But you can make an appointment at an Apple Store or call Apple tech support and plead your case.

Some keys still do not work on my Macbook Pro 13"

i have a 13" macbook pro running OS Mavericks
My laptop was on the bed and i found it with dog pee on the right side of the keyboard. i immediately cleaned the top of the keyboard and turned it upside down so liquid would come out. It was clean and the computer was still running so i thought everythings ok. i read 2 magazines and then tried to use my laptop again and noticed the keys were not functioning properly. i pressed several keys to test it and then turned it off. i lifted the laptop and noticed it was still wet underneath. i then felt liquid coming out of the right side. i turned the laptop on its right side so that i could force the liquid to come out. i pressed the power button and it didnt turn on. i attached the charger and noticed the battery was charging but the laptop would still not turn on. i opened the back casing. and saw liquid on top of battery, cd drive and hard drive. i wiped it and dried it with a hair drier. i also dried the keyboard but it would still not turn on.
i waited a few hours and went to the apple store. The service person immediately said the engineers would have to quote me for a new logic board and top case. all he did was stare at the logic board. there was a bit of corrosion but it was like small. i did not go through with the replacements since it would cost me $1330 just replacing and no service fee yet.
i went home and took out the battery, logic board and hard drive. i was able to clean underneath the keyboard which was still a bit sticky with dog pee. i wasn't able to remove the cd drive because the screws were so tight. i the reset the SMC and PRAM. The laptop started. When i was able to see the screen where it had different options like restoring and resetting preferences and something about drives i did not know what to do so i shut it down again. i still could not use the power button so i reset the SMC again. it is the only way to turn on my laptop.The laptop opened. The fan started and the screen showed the login grey screen. I noticed the keyboard was still not working. I could not login to my Admin account because it was password protected. i logged into guest. i went to system preferences and deleted my password for Admin So i could log in to my main account. All the while i was using the on screen keyboard to type which can be opened using keyboard preferences. I realized that my laptop was okay except for the keyboard.
I was able to login to my main account. However i noticed that i could not use my Wi-Fi. It had an error that said -- Wi-Fi: No hardware installed -- i then shut down the laptop once more and disconnected the wires attached to the logic board. i reset SMC again. i logged in my main Admin Account without password and it still showed Wifi hardware not installed. I went to System Preferences and connected the ethernet cable to my laptop. I followed instructions and set up my internet using a dsl connection. i typed my username and password still didnt work i typed my IP address, Subnet mask, Router, DNS server. I got the information from my iphone 4s which was using my current wifi. it still did not work. I kept trying to connect the ethernet restarting the procedures over and over again till suddenly the wifi started working out of the blue.
I then downloaded a remote keyboard app that allows me to use my iphone as a keyboard and trackpad so that i can use my laptop. After one day i can use almost all the letters on my laptops keyboard. however i still cannot use the function keys (except volume down), number keys, delete, enter, arrow keys and most of the punctuation keys do not work. fortunately the option and command keys work i noticed that the left side which i was able to clean from underneath is functioning properly while the right side is not. i also notice that the right side which was peed on has significantly lower back lighting than the left side. im wondering if there is anything else i havent done to fix this issue. pls help and thanks in advance
i will try to open the right side part from underneath to clean it but im apprehensive as i dont want to lose the current progress i have with the laptop.

your mac is not going to get better. liquid damage usually gets worse over time.
