When downloading FlashPlayer it continually fail because safari needs to stop running?

Okay so I have tried about four times to do this download now and every time it gets right to the end and then fails because I need to shut down safari, but I'm pretty sure it is shut down? Someone please help as my patience is running out now

No worries.  I have macro for it because a dozen people a day ask the same question, and it's totally understandable confusion.
There's a little white dot underneath the icons in the dock that tell you what applications are currently running.  It's really subtle until you know to look for it.

  • TS1424 when downloading itunes update it fails because it can't find  "iTunes.msi"

    when downloading itunes update it fails because it can't find  "iTunes.msi" whaat can I do please?

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • When downloading movies form netflix my apple tv streaming keeps stopping ?      ?

    While streaming movies from Netflix through Apple TV, the movies keep stopping. My WIFI signal is strong. Can anyone help? Thank You.

    Ok so I've been doing more testing. It's all videos on the iTunes store. Anytime I try to download a podcast or stream it or anything it's super slow. To download an episode of Diggnation it tells me over 2 hours to download but the time keeps climbing and I just stop the transfer.
    Some people said it's an Open DNS thing? Maybe it is but it's not computer specific and I couldn't find a way to change the DNS settings in my Airport, only on each computer. I tried deleting PLists and restoring my Apple TV and restoring my Airport and nothing is working.
    I don't know if it an issue with me, my ISP or Apple. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

  • Internet Explorer closing when downloading Flashplayer 10

    I have tried to download adobe flashplayer 10.0.42.34 and each time the webpage closes with the message 'A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused internet explorer to close this web page'.
    I am using IE8 on a x86 based pc. My operating system is Windows XP Professional version 5.1.2600 service pack 3 build 2600.

    I have downloaded the Active X Installer and have loaded the Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X (According to what it tells me in the loaded programs folder.)
    When I downloaded the Installer the following message came up;
    Error opening file for writing
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil10d.exe
    Click Abort to stop the installation or,Ignore to skip the file.
    Retry did not work so I chose Ignore.
    It then said that Adobe Set Up was complete.
    How can I check that Flashplayer is now working ok?
    When I open the Adobe.com webpage I get a message that says,
    Assert in LSP
    9_socket_data.Lookup(s) == 0
    Capture\lsp\nolsp\wsp_patches.cpp:1273
    Abort Retry Ignore
    What does this mean?
    Is my computer as safe as it was before loading the Installer?

  • Error msg on my iphone 4 when downloading ios7. is this because i didn't download ios6?

    Seeing error msg on my iphone 4 when downloading ios7. Is this because I didn't download ios6? What can I do?

    Try updating via iTunes on the computer.
    If insistent about updating directly on the device, ensure there is sufficient free space on the device, at least 3GB of free space is required.  Try a reset and restart of the device.
    There should be no requirement to be on iOS6 to update to iOS7.

  • Why can I not print out a pdf-file (train ticket NS) when downloaded with Firefox? (file says (SECURED)

    When ordering and paying a train ticket by internet they send a pdf-file, which one must download and print. When downloading this with Firefox (from my e-mail account) the pdf-file says (SECURED) and I cannot print out the ticket (pdf-file). (Adobe program stops automatically).
    When downloading this same pdf-file in Safari, I encounter no problems.

    Current Firefox versions have enabled a built-in PDF Viewer that doesn't have all features that other PDF readers like the Adobe Reader have or may not function properly otherwise.
    You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use the Adobe Reader application or set to "Always Ask" in "Firefox > Preferences > Applications".

  • Attempting to upgrade to Firefox 3.6 (using an ancient Mac OS 10.3), but received an error message (corrupt image file) when downloading - any way to correct this with my current OS?

    I'm currently trying to update a few programs on my good old (VERY old) Mac Powerbook, but I ran into an error when downloading Firefox version 3.6...I'm currently running Mac OS X 10.3.9, which isn't compatible with the most recent versions of Firefox (or anything, for that matter), but it should still allow an upgrade of version 3.6; however, once the file finished downloading, an error message popped up indicating there's a corrupt image file. Is there any way to work around/correct this problem, or am I stuck with my old version of Firefox until I bite the bullet and upgrade my OS??? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

    Firefox 3.6 requires at least OS X 10.4, the last version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.3.9 is Firefox 2.0.0.20 available from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/mac/en-US/

  • When downloading, why do I get a message saying "Safari cant open file because the file has moved since it was downloaded?"  I just attempted to download the file from a website.  Thanks.

    When downloading from a website, I get a message that says, "Safari cant open th file--- because the file has been moved since you downloaded it.  How do I correct this problem.  It wont let me open attachments from yahoo email either.  Thanks.

    EDIT:
    After posting I see this question has the tag of "windows". I don't know if this applies to the Windows version or not.
    The only time I see this message is if I download something, trash it, AND empty the trash. If I don't empty the trash, it finds it there. It will find it wherever I move it to, unless it is was in the trash and emptied.
    Using Finder, is the downloaded file in your Downloads folder?
    Maybe if you go to Safari/Preferences/General and change the location for downloads to something else then change it back to Downloads it might correct it.
