Trouble installing on Mac OS X 10.5.8

Hi, I can't seem to download flash player. I had an old version, but was having trouble updating it, so I tried uninstalling it (which I have managed to do) in order to re-install the software ...but now I can't install it at all.
I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 with an intel processor, nothing seems to work, the installation links do nothing. The web browser I am using is Safari 5.0.6. Please help!

hi jodie,
I was having the exact same problem and the instructions in this forum page didnt help me either. So i tried my own way and it happened to work.
1.download adobe flash player 10.3 on another mac (this is a problem if you dont have another mac but maybe a friend does?)
2. transfer the installer onto a usb 
3. install from the adobe flash player installer that you just transferred to the usb stick
4. make sure you enable you javascript before trying to view a video
it definitely works because i just did it a few minutes ago and just tested it. I was worried about viruses etc from downloading an older version from a random website. lucky this method worked!
hope i've helped!
Jenny

    What is the version of PSE & PRE that you are trying to install?
    If you are trying to download PSE 10 & PRE 10, you can look here for the download link : http://www.adobe.com/downloads/

  • Trouble installing Office Mac 2011

    I am trying to download Office:Mac 2011 on my new MacBook Pro but keep getting pop up which says it cannot continue with the installation as Safari is open. We have disconnected from the internet but it still keeps telling me the same message. I have tried starting again etc but no joy. Please can someone help?

    As Office is not an Apple product, you may get better help by posting this question in the Microsoft Office for Mac forums here:
    http://www.officeformac.com/productforums/
    Also, I did not know there is a downloadable Office for Mac source. Are you trying to get it from the Microsoft site or someplace else. If the later, it could be a pirated copy and potentially contain malware.

  • Having trouble installing Adobe Flash player 17.0.0.134 on Mac OS 10.10.1.  Currently have 16.0.0305 flash player installed

    Having trouble installing Adobe Flash player 17.0.0.134 on Mac OS 10.10.1.  Currently have 16.0.0305 flash player installed.  I've tried quitting Safari.  Have not uninstalled currently Adobe as yet.  How to fix?

    Sorry, when I try to install Flash Player 17.0.0.134, it will begin initialing, then stop saying "Installation Failed" and to press "Finish".  It then directs me to troubleshooting.  I made sure I quit Safari as per their instructions, but have not gone as far as "uninstalling" my current Flash Player 16.0.0.305, because it looks like I will screw something up in the process.
    Hope that information helps.

  • Trouble installing CS6 on my mac

    Im having trouble installing CS6 onto my mac. I have tried each way a few times and it isnt downloading, it might get to half way and then it stops. Any ideas?

    What Mac? What version of OSX? What are the specific errors. And clarify whether you actualyl alrteady have successfully downloaded and get stuck on installing or if it's the otehr way around. That false intermingling of terminology is really not helping.

  • Trouble installing Canon printer on my Mac

    I am having trouble installing the Canon C3220 printer on my Mac powerbook 15-inch 1.3Ghz. It has 10.3.9 on it. The Canon printer sits on my work network. I have installed the lastest Mac printer driver for the C3220. When I got to set up the printer. I choose the Kind of printer, then I get the following message: unable to communicate with device. I then try to set the printer up manually, but then nothing prints to the printer. Other mac users on my network can print to the printer, and they have the same driver installed on their machine. Is there something I am doing incorrect? I tried contacting our Canon suppliers, but they do not know how to use Mac machines. I have another network Canon printer installed on my machine whicgh I can print to fine. So not too sure if it is something wrong with my machine or with how the printer is set up.

    saying something about PowerPC applications and i have no idea what that is.
    Basically, in layman terms, they are applications that can only run on non-Intel computers.  Support for PowerPC applications I believe stopped with the Lion os system.  Which one do you have?  Your system profile is lacking this information.
    Am i going to have to buy a new printer??
    More than likely if your printer does meet the system requirements.  You will need to call HP tech support or visit the HP website, look for your model printer & read its system requirements.  If your printer does meet your system requirements, its possible you all you need to do is update the printers drivers.

  • Trouble installing Lightroom 4 on my Mac. Version  OS X 10.5.8

    I am having trouble installing Lightroom 4 on my Mac. Version  OS X 10.5.8. I downloaded Lightroom 3 trail version no problem. Now i have purchased the licence for lightroom 4. I have downloaded the DNG file of but my apple installer will not open the download. I get a message (Operation could not be completed. com.apple.installer.page controller error-1) Any ideas?

    That's because the minimum tech specs for Lr4 is Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later ... and ... for computers with intel 64-bit capabilities ...

  • Having trouble installing iMovie HD on a new Mac with Mavericks

    I am having trouble installing iMovie HD on a new Mac with Mavericks.
    I know that iMovie HD works with Mavericks because we are using it on other Macs successfully.   However, those machines were upgraded starting with OS 10.6.   In other words, iMovie HD was installed on these Macs when the Macs had Snow Leopard.
    When I use the iLife 06 disc, I am presented with “You can't open the application “iLife 06” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I understand that iMovie HD  is universal, not PowerPC.  How can I get past this to install iMovie HD.
    Thanks

    OK, I made some progress.
    I used Pacifist (Shareware) to open the iMovie HD 6 install packages from the iLife '06 installer DVD (iMovie.pkg and iMovieThemes_Tiger.pkg) and let Pacifist install them to the right places.
    But doesn't iMovie HD 6 require QuickTime 7 to work ?

    Go here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582, download the update file and run it. Ideally, start up in Safe Mode when you do the update.
