Why does Flash Player install for Mac OSX 10.8 ask to quit DashboardClient?

I don't believe there is a way to just shutdown the Dashboard Client by itself. The install will not allow me to go any further.

I managed to finally find a pretty easy solution and to save typing time, it's in this thread already -->  http://forums.adobe.com/message/5242491#5242491

  • Why does FlashPlayer not install in Mac OSX Snow Leopard?

    I've downloaded FlashPlayer for Mac OS, and the entire install process is completed successfully. But I do not have FlashPlayer capability, and I cannot find FlashPlayer on my hard drive. I've downloaded all of the recent updates for Mac OSX Snow Leopard, have closed all programs, shut down and restarted--nothing works. After a supposedly "successful" installation, I don't have FlashPlayer. What's up?

    ADE does not recognize Sony devices on the Mac.  You'll need to use the Sony software instead.

  • Flash player version for mac osx 10.5.8

    have downloaded flashplayer removal update and restarted computer. what version of flash player do I now download for mac osx 10.5.8. i have dedicated today to sort this out please help me!

    I think you need a 10.x version (probably 10.3.183.10).
    Here's Adobe's Archive of old flash players.  Scroll down.  There's a 10.3.183.20 in the list.  It downloads a zip with both windows and mac versions.  After expanding you can fish out the mac version.

  • Why does Flash Player install McAfee software?

    I installed today Flash on my Windows PC. I opened the installer, chose "Notify me of all updates" and pressed install. The following progress bar showed not only the progress of the Flash installation but also the progress of some McAfee software installation. I couldn't reject it in an way. I had to uninstall it once it finished.
    So my question is clear: Why? I don't want McAfee, I should be able to tell the installer "don't install McAfee". What if I had a limited broadband connection (3G, for example)? What if McAfee broke my antivirus installation? Is Adobe or McAfee going to be responsible if anything goes bad because of that bundle installation?
    This is terrible user experience. The only thing you've achieved is my bad impression of both business, so I'll purchase/download as little as I can of any of you.
    Congratulations.

    It's in one or more of the update links. It's been reported, but there isn't a big priority to change it.
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Those are FULL installers with nothing bundled.
    Bookmark them, because when the version changes, the link stays the same.

  • I cannot install flash player on my MAC - (osx 10.8.4) - it downloads 50%, then clicks to "finish"

    I cannot install flash player on my Mac - running OSX 10.8.4 and Safari 6.0.5.  The progress bar show is as  downloading to 50%, then converts to "installing" and immediately goes to 100% and says it's installed. But it's not.  I get another Adobe Flash installer icon on my desktop instead.  Help!

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    First, remove Adobe Flash Player completely using Flash Player uninstaller for MAC : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html
    Download offline installer for Adobe Flash Player (MAC) from here : http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_playe r_11_osx.dmg
    Once the file is downloaded, run the installer
    Thanks,

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Why does Flash Player keep sending me notifications to update to the version I already have?

    Why does Flash Player keep sending me notifications to update to the version I already have? The result is always an error message telling me that the version is already running. (Desktop Computer; Windows Vista OS; Firefox; Adobe Flash Version 11.8.800.94)

    I don't know; can you post a screenshot of such a notification?
    Did you update both ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) and plugin (for Firefox)?

    If you downloaded Flash Player from the standard location http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ then you WILL have the option to decline the bundled install:
    If you download the installer from Mike's link above (which is posted several dozen times in this forum every day), then you will not get any bundled software.

  • Flash Player update for Mac OS X 10.5.8

    Does anyone have any ideas how to update my flash player on my Mac?  It has the following: OS X 10.5.8 which has a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.  I tried updating directly from the Adobe forum related to this, but it only lists the option from 10.6 to 10.10 now.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

    If you're on an Intel Mac, you can probably complete the installation.  I don't *think* we'll block you at install time.  That said, we're using the MacOS 10.6 SDK, so there may be problems.  You should be eligible for a free upgrade to Yosemite, and you might want to consider it. 
    Running a Flash Player from the archives means that you're missing all of the security fixes that have been shipped since that build was initially released.  If you're surfing the web, this is generally a pretty bad ideal, even on Mac.  You're going to be much safer running current versions of the OS and Flash Player.

  • Dell 2130cn leftover from PC life--hot to install for Mac OSX 10.6.5?

    I have this Dell color laser printer. Since I switched to Mac last year I have been unable to install for Mac. Read the threads about downloading Ghostscript and Foomatic etc., but still can't INSTALL the stupid printer, much less get it to print anything.
    Is there a DUMMY'S GUIDE to INSTALLING and SETTING UP this stupid printer? Else I'll just put it out on the street and hope somebody takes it away.
    Thanks.

    The sequence of installing the packages makes no difference. You do not have to reboot after the installation of the printing software.
    I cannot say why you were getting the error message. I would have to see the CUPS error_log. If you are indeed running 10.6.x (you are posting in the forum for 10.5.x) then the foomatic error should have caused about 50 lines of debugging information to be logged. You can see the error_log by using a browser and going to http://127.0.0.1:631/admin/log/error_log?
    Please note that the error message you are getting does not mean that the drivers will not work with your printer. Usually the type of message you are getting is during processing of the print file and before it is sent to the printer.

    AS John says 10.1.102.64 is the latest PPC version, but...
    The last really supported Flash for PPC was 10.1.102.64, but if it's for like Facebook or such, people have been fooling FB to think they have a later version installed.
