Trouble re-installing Adobe Flash Player

I have downloaded Adobe Flash before and never had this problem, somehow (idk how). I go through the installation process (a million times) and it says its installed but the Flash Player recognizer says its still not installed. I am using a MacBookPro- with the latest updated programs. I am using Safari.

Have a look at How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X

  • I'm having trouble with installing Adobe Flash Player

    everything I using on the web tells me I need the update for Adobe Flash Player-birthday cad sites and such... So I install it but instead of just finishing step 3 - install complete - I get an advertisement for an additional application for $9.99 a month - which I have no need for so I just close that tab window.... I've tried restart, shut down, and a few other things but to no avail.... go to the site I want to send from and I get the same update message - but no viewing of the card or product I 'm looking for....  anyone know what I need to do?
    I've search it out through Finder and it is in there in applications all of them (apps) from 2007 to 2015 - something isn't right.... right?
    can you guys help?  thanks, ohyes

    The big Step 1 button that says Install doesn't install anything. It downloads the installer to your Mac. Note that Step 2 tells you what to do next:
    To proceed, open your download folder and locate the Adobe Flash Player Installer file, named like "AdobeFlashPlayer[xxx]_install.dmg”.
    The file you'll find there should be named:
    AdobeFlashPlayer_17_ta_install.dmg
    Double click the .dmg file to open it. You'll see this:
    Click the "Install Adobe Flash Player" package. When the installation is done, you can close this window and dismount the .dmg file by putting the "drive" icon that appeared on the desktop in the trash. You can then delete the .dmg file as you no longer need it.
    The Step 3 Adobe shows is completely pointless.

  • Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro?

    Is anyone having trouble installing Adobe flash player on a MacBook Pro with OSX 10.7.5?

    Thanks for your help here is what I did so far!
    I have uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it, I've tried restarting my browser, then my MacBook Pro without any success!
    When I click on the Apple in the upper left hand corner and open System Preferences I can see Adobe Flash Player on the bottom under the Other section.
    If I open Adobe up and check the version it tells me that I have the most recent version!
    I even uninstalled Adobe and installed the newest Beta version, but Adobe is still not working! If I check for the latest version it tells me that I do have the latest beta version, but it still doesn't work!
    If the person who made the video used any other video player it works!
    Their player, plays the video without a problem!

    You'll continue to have trouble, because...
    There is no more Flash Player for Android and there won't be another. Android is no longer compatible with Flash Player. Playing Flash content is very processor consumptive and it drains your battery, also shortening the life of it. Android (Google) recommends using either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" as your browser if you need to view Flash content with a mobile device running Android. They're both free in the GooglePlay store.
    These browsers use "server side" rendering to reduce the load on your device.

  • 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 Adobe Flash Player 11.9.900.170 on Mac OS X 10.9

    Hello dear experts,
    since the last update of Adobe Flash Player I cannot install the application anymore.
    The installation cancels with a general error message.
    Mac's console shows the following messages:

    The following log messages can relate to this:

    I think this exception is thrown if I click on my hard drive’s symbol in the installer.
    I have the same problem when I try to install Microsoft’s last Office update. Maybe there is a connection?
    I tried several older versions of the Adobe Flash Player installer, but they didn't work as well.
    Perhaps we have some kind of "Mavericks" problem here?
    Any help would be highly appreciated!
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Kind regards
    Oliver

    Finally found the issue here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3889562?tstart=0
    Somehow a empty file /System/Library/CoreServices/ServerVersion.plist has been created.
    If I understand this right this file is only needed if you use Mac OS X Server.
    As suggested in the support forum I deleted the file (renamed it to _ServerVersion.plist) and after that every installation, including Adobe Flash Player and Office 2011 update worked!
    Thank you very much,
    Kind regards,
    Oliver

  • Trouble installing adobe flash player.

    I have tried several times to install Adobe Flash Player. I get a message that it was successful, but then when I open something where it's required to view, I receive ANOTHER message to install. I looked online and took the steps given, one of which is to hit a button to see if it's installed, and I receive a notice Not installed. I have repeated this at least a dozen times.

    why does it keep asking me to install adobe flash player even after i have installed it once? Please help me.

    No idea.  What did the folks on the Adobe forums say when you posted there, since it's Adobe's software you're having trouble with?

  • I can't install Adobe Flash Player HELP!

    I just got my MacBook Pro and I'm trying to install Adobe Flash Player but there seems to be a problem and I dont know what it is, it starts installing and it says it is fully installed but when I open youtube it says I need to download it. Does someone know whats wrong

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 5.
    Step 1
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, sign in to your YouTube account and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 2
    If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
    Step 3
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 4
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 5
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
    Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
    Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 6
    Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    Step 7
    In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
