When I try to install flash player on my Mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, but it will not take my password. Tried changing the password, but same result. Suggestions??

This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt. If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

How to install flash player on my mac

hi there.
When i try to install flash player in my mac, it keep asking me to remove safary.
how do i install abods flash player?
thanks for your help

You need to quit Safari before Flash can be installed. No need to remove Safari.
With Safari open, from the menu bar click Safari > Quit Safari
Then proceed with the Flash installation.
When you are done installing Flash, you can re launch Safari.

I am trying to set up an account without a credit card. When I get to the screen which asks for credit card information, 'none' is not an option. Why not?

I am trying to set up an iTunes account without a credit card. However when I get to the screen that asks for credit card information, 'none' is not an option. According to the instructions on the website, that should be an option. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the response,
Yes, I followed the instructions to the letter. But it asks for credit information anyway and 'none' is supposed to be an option when setting up an account 'with no credit card'.
I have two new iphones, the first one set up as expected, where 'none' was an option. Now that I'm attempting to set up the second with different information, there is no 'none', only Mastercard,Visa, AmerX, Discover and Paypal.

I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now. HELP!!!

Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually.

The download button does not appear when I try to download Flash Player

The download button does not appear when I try to download Flash Player on my MacBook Pro. I'm using Firefox. I uninstalled Flash Player yesterday and can't download the newest version 11.6.602.180 today, help!

Here's the current link to the offline installer:

Are you running any ad-blocking or anti-tracking plugins? When the product download center appears broken, those are common contributors.
