Unable to install any ver of Flash Player

In trying to incorporate new external HD, by selecting and dragging the computer HD into that folder,  I didn't see any change in the availabe space
on the ext. HD. I clicked the icon and dragged it to the original venue, I was met with two successive gray screens, with a message to reboot.
Nothing helped but reloading the OS. Hours  later with every in Its place I tried to  watch videos on various sites. All required me
to install Flash Player. What ever ver was installed prior to the crash it was the latest.
I tried nearly every download available. When each didn't work I uninstalled it. Often I got the message the black box with the statement Get Flash Player for Power PC.
The iMac GS Model  Power Mac 8.1   OS X 10.4.11 Browsers Safari 3.0.4, Firefox 3.6.15
Prior to the disappearance of that program Adobe Flash Player worked very well since the initial installation and through all the upgrades. Please help me reinstall your program. Thank you.

Hi 1Albert, So glad to hear that's working for you
Yes, some of the older Macs take a little investigation and tweaks like you say, to find the right software to get it working.
Thanks for posting back and marking your thread as answered. Your thread, as others is helpful for all users of those Macs.

    I fould a hack that makes the sites think you have the latest (Intel) version of Flash installed. So I installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari. Here's the info.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Unable to install and uninstall Adobe Flash Player

    Hi,
    i hope there is someone here that can help me. i've recently upgraded to 10.4.11. There was a problem with safari, which i learned was related to Adobe Flash player. part of the fix is to uninstall the flash player. I downloaded the uninstaller and ran it. I noticed the progress bar didn't even move, it stayed at 0 for over 15 mins. I had to force quite the application.
    I then tried running just the adobe flash installer. Similar problem.
    the uninstaller and installers that were downloaded are both made for PowerPC macs.
    Is there something wrong with my mac? someone please help me. i can't watch youtube or go to any flash heavy sites.

  • I am unable to install latest version of Flash Player

    I get an error message saying "unable to contact trackers".  I have followed all the guidance on the Adobe troubleshooter to no avail.  Any ideas?

    Hi PJA01,
    I'm sorry that you experienced technical issues.
    In order to better understand the cause of the problem, could you please provide me with following information?
    1. Can you tell me a little about your network connection?  For example, are you connected from home using your internet service provider, at work using work network, or at home connected through VPN?
    2. Does your connection go through proxy server? 
    3. Are you using some kind of firewall?  Is it personal or corporate firewall?
    4. OS that you are using
    5. Browser and browser version you are using.
    Thank you,

    Thank you for reply..
    Actually i uninstalled the existing version of Flash Player from my Windows 8 PC, but when i tried to install the older version, it was not allowing me to install and was showing that my browser is included with latest version.
    Even i followed the below given websites, it didn't given any remedy for it.

  • Installed and verifed but Flash Player continues to crash in Firefox.  Any suggestions

    Flash Player sometime activates and then crashes after a few seconds.

    Thanks for responding Chris.  Flash Player consistently crashes no matter what site I am in.  I've tried all of the suggested fixes in Flash Player help and nothing has been successful. The computer confirms that I have downloaded the most recent file but Adobe Flash Player doesn't show in the Firfox Add Ons.  I also tried Firefox flash player suggestions but none worked.  It crashes no matter what page I am on.  If flash player is required, it crashes.  It also crashes in Internet Explorer.  I am a novice so please bear with me.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    created by chris.campbell in Using Flash Player - View the full discussionHello,I'm sorry you're encountering these problems.  I'll try what I can to help. 1. Have you tried any browser other than Firefox?  It would be helpful to know if these same types of crashes occur with Internet Explorer or Google Chrome.2. Did this crashing behavior just start occurring?  If so, was there a particular update or event that preceded the crashing?3. Does the crashing happen consistently?  Ie. If you go to the same web page that contains Flash content, does it crash every time you visit?  Does it crash when you visit this page?  Flash Player Help  What pages does it crash on?4. Can you visit about:crashes within Firefox and submit some of the most recent crashes.  Once submitted, please post back with the crash URL's.4. Can you try resetting your Firefox profile?  Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
    Firefox Help5. Finally, can you try temporarily disabling protected mode to see if that makes a difference (this will be the last step in the faq)?  How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox? Thanks,

  • For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    For some reason, the Flash Player on my MAC Pro stopped working, I've checked the install on my Adobe Flash Player and the are current, but the plug-ins don't seem to be working.  Can anyone help me get it working?

    It happened w/ my MacPro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon about 5 months ago; tried everything I could think of including multiple downloads of Flash, and hadn't seen any solutions here.  Adobe insisted many times that I download & update, but the newest vers. wouldn't work on the computer.
    On checking Adobe/Flash was reading the computer as being an earlier model. So the new version of Flash wouldn't work w/ it.  Snow Leopard 10.6.8 was being read correctly but not the computer model (can't remember what MP model  it was reading).
    Nothing worked. So -- a very old PC trick: If nothing else works get the hammer out and bludgeon it-- might work. So I reset everything by putting the Snow Leopard  install disk in, held down 'C' on restart and let it run. 
    Didn't take anything off the HDD first, just ran the install disk over everything.
    The experts on the forums are probably cringing right now & I'd like very much for them to jump in. Love to know how my computer model was being mis-read. All I can say is, for the brave and desparate, it worked for me. Something to keep in mind.
    It helped that I had a new computer on order & have 2 backups, one being mandatory. Might work only the one time but worth a check.
    Good luck on working this one out.

  • Unable to install Active X and Flash Plugin for Acrobat

    I would like to create a PDF Portfolio in Acrobat Pro XI. However, once I have selected the files I get a notification that states, "To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat." When I click the buttom "Proceed to download page," it brings me to this page: Acrobat Help | Flash Player needed | Acrobat, Reader XI
    The problem is, the two download links for Windows don't seem to be working. Is this an across the board issue or is it just me? How can I go about installing these required plugins?

    Hi asbryk,
    I checked the link to install flash player and it is working fine.
    If the 'Flash Player Active X' and 'Flash Player Plug-ins ' are already installed in your system, then first uninstall them.
    For that, please go to Control Panel>Programs and Features and click uninstall.
    Also, check whether you have an updated Acrobat version i.e. 11.0.09 by clicking Help>Check for Updates
    Now, restart your system and install the Flash Player from the same link you tried earlier.
    I hope this will work fine now.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • Installing multiple versions of Flash Player

    I am running Windows 7 x64, and curently have Google Chrome running in addition to IE 8.  Has anyone installed multiple versions of Flash Player to support both browsers...IE and Chrome?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, there are two Flash Player versions; one is the ActiveX for Internet Explorer, and the other one is the plugin for all other browsers, e.g. Firefox, Chrome, etc.
    Just go to the FP download page with each browser type, then do the install. IE will install the ActiveX, the other browser will install the plugin. (Once you install the plugin, it will work for all non-IE browsers.)
