Why does the system keep requesting I download Flash 8.0.0?

Mac G5. Final Tiger.
Occasionally I listen to online audio from a variety of sources with no problem.
Occasionally when I try to do that I get a message (or a button) to download Flash 8.0.0. I have done that several times. Once the app is installed (as far as I know it is), I may then click on that audio file and up comes that same message/button again to d/l Flash 8.0.0.
If I try to find Flash on my system, it is somehow not clear to me what I've found.
Let me try right now and see what comes up (I'll summarize):
Using Spotlight my "Top Hit" says "Adobe Flash Player Install Manager." When I open that it gives me choices of Quit or Uninstall, but no version number. And if Flash 8 or later is indeed installed, how do I know where it is? (It may indeed be a plug-in somewhere but——?) I also have here and there about 6 or 7 Flash-labeled folders. One for example in Applications/Adobe Extension Manager CS4/Samples. One more in my Library/Preferences/Macromedia folder (though I use no Macromedia apps).
Now let me check my plug-ins for (latest) Safari: There's a Shockwave Flash. There is this: "Verified Download Plugin — from file “VerifiedDownloadPlugin.plugin,” but no further info. I also have Click to Flash 1.5.5.
What is my best action here? And I thank you.

you can see your fp version here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
in the future, ignore any message recommending you download fp 8. that's an old version and no doubt the creator of that flash player detector is using out-dated code giving you mis-information.

Why does the memory keep depleting? Is it kernel_task?

It seems that recently the memory available continues to decrease. What seems to solve it is 'quitting' Safari and re-launching, along with running "Memory Clean" from the OS App store. I had somehow wound up with an adware called cinema hd, and it attached as a plugin, but I removed it. However, seems that simply scrolling through Facebook and refreshing Facebook causes the memory to deplete the longer I do that. Again, running Memory Clean that takes just a few seconds, and it seems to fix. Seems this just started happening over the last few weeks.
That all said, I accidentally 'hijacked' another post, so I have started a new one to help troubleshoot my issue. Clearly I have something on here that is sucking up memory over time. When I run Activity Monitor and hit the Memory tab, kernel_task seems to float to the top, and right now is 764.2MB as I'm typing this post. Following that is SymDaemon at 343.8MB, then the two browser tabs I have open in Safari. Then it drops down to double digits: Windows Server 73MB, Messages 61MB and on down.
Here is the info from an EtreCheck which was advised to someone else on another thread.
Any suggestions? This Mac has always run great - so I think I just need to undo something.

Uninstall Symantec according to its instructions. One or more of the following should be applicable:
Uninstall Norton Internet Security for Mac
Removing Symantec programs for Macintosh by using the RemoveSymantecMacFiles removal utility
RemoveSymantecMacFiles
Be sure to back up your Mac before making any changes to your system. To learn how to use Time Machine read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac.
Hate to say that I've wasted $80 on that.
Yes. Get a refund, if possible.
So are we saying that I should just run with no antivirus?
That is a popular misconception and oversimplification. Non-Apple "anti-virus" products such as Symantec / Norton serve no beneficial purpose and are only likely to contribute to problems.
In general "anti-virus" software began to outgrow its usefulness with the demise of Windows. It's completely ineffective against the kinds of threats that exist today, a fact that Symantec's senior VP for information security admitted a short time ago, declaring "anti-virus" software "dead" while petulantly admitting the real reason is that it doesn't make any money. Read below.
Don't use garbage apps such a "Memory Clean" either. In an admittedly broad generalization, do not install anything claiming to "clean" your Mac. If they aren't worthless, they're malicious. They'll all waste your time and / or money.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
The same precaution applies to Adobe Flash Player. New Flash vulnerabilities appear almost weekly.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver "free" movies or other copyrighted content that is not normally "free".
The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

Why does the system need two average costs - 'Average' and 'Average Rates'?

Hello Gurus!
The documentation does give definitions for 'Average' and 'Average Rates' cost types, but at a very basic level.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/A60725_05/html/comnls/us/cst/settask.htm
I would like to know why the system needs two costs? How are they calculated and how are they used?
Thanks!

Hello,
I can suggest you a workaround that will help you keep only the 64-bit version of Photoshop.
Visit "Uninstall a Program" in Windows 7 Control Panel and uninstall Photoshop completely.
Visit this page and download trial version of Photoshop.
Run the installer manually and choose the 64-bit version only (uncheck 32-bit version).
Launch the product and specify your Adobe ID credentials.
The product will switch to non-trial (i.e. full) mode when it recognizes your Adobe ID.

Why does the System message-"Customer Num of customer is on hold" appear

Hi,
I created a UDO form with a field named Customer Code that represents a code of a customer.
Pressing TAB over the field enables to choose a customer from a list.
The list is based on Choose From List system object.
When I choose a customer, who is on hold, I get a system message:
Customer <Number of customer> is on hold. Changes cannot be saved. Do you want to proceed?
This message is irrelevant because the purpose of the form is searching and displaying data.
Why does this message appear, and how can I avoid it?
Thanks in advance.
Shai.

Maybe, just after you select the customer from the choose from list, and just before you show it in you form, thus, making the msgbox appear, you can check if the bp is frozen and manage to click in the ok button of the msgbox using UI api....
Hope it helps,
Jon Arranz

Why does the dock keep moving to my secondary monitor?

I work with a dual monitor set-up. The screen on my 15" powerbook functions as a palette monitor to my larger display. Everything is set up in the system preferences for the dock to be on the larger display. But since I upgraded to Maverick a few days ago, the dock sometimes moves to my palette monitor. I "think" it happens when I've got a few windows open and I'm writing an email to a client and have to pull up information from various files. So I'm moving around on both displays at that point. I also have the radio streaming from the palette monitor.
The first time this happened, I just went into System Preferences and re-selected the main monitor under the display icon and the dock moved back over.
But, then today it moved to my secondary display again and I tried going into SysPref again and doing the same thing, but the dock just stayed on the smaller screen. I gave up and did a restart which reset the dock back to the main monitor.
Clearly this is disruptive to my workflow. How can I lock my dock into place on my main monitor.
Thanks in advance. Sandra

Hey Sandra MacPherson!
Here’s an article for you that may enlighten you about the functionality of the Dock in Mavericks:
OS X: Using multiple displays in Mavericks
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5891
Working with the Dock
When the Dock is configured to appear at the bottom of your screen, it's available on whichever screen you’re working on. Just move your pointer to the bottom of either display. When the Dock is configured for the left or right position, it appears on the leftmost or rightmost display edge.
Tip: If you don't see your dock because it's set to hidden or there's a full screen app on the display, move your pointer to the location of the Dock. If the Dock still doesn't appear, swipe your pointer towards the Dock again to unhide it.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

HT1560 If diagnostics says appletv is working properly, why does the install keep getting stuck on pairing with the computer then back to select resolution over and over.

First gen Appletv suddenly stopped working from one night to the next. This has happened in the past once and the usual restore, reboot, etc, tinkering finally snapped it back into working quite unexpectadly. The symptom is, after restore when it gets to the screen to pair with itunes by entering the numbers in itunes, the number is briefly up on the tv screen and then quickly is gone returning to the select resolution page. This happens over and over with each try while the Appletv never shows up in itunes and the number box never appears either to pair the computer with the Appletv. It does the same thing with my intel macbook so I don't think it's the Imac. I have dumped itunes 10 and reloaded itunes 9 with no change in the problem. My IP scanner picks up that the Appletv is on our network as soon as it turns on. I have used wireless, which it finds and logs into, and ethernet which also has it finding my network. I can't test whether it is actually on the network by trying to play a trailer or something because it will not go past that pairing screen in the initial setup. Are the built in diagnostics reliable when they say your appletv is working correctly. The hard drive isn't making any exceptionally loud noise as it spins up. I am stuck with this unit because I use it with a G4 Imac running Tiger 10.4 for a video/audio jukebox at the bar. New ATV won't work with the Imac unless it's running leopard I believe. The thing runs like molasses already so attempting leopard which I don't have anyway would really make it crawl. I love a good mystery/problem but this thing is driving me crazy. If I just could know for sure what component inside was shot I would replace it. Could a hard drive boot up to a degree and then get stuck at one part of the install, or would it have to be the logic board, or something else. Bad juju in the house or something

Had same problem this finally stopped it for me.

Why does the sound keep going out?

The sound keeps going out for everything: iTunes, any website which has audio, even the volume buttons on my keyboard. I notice that when I restart my computer it will work temporarily, maybe 10-15 minutes and then will go out again. This just started happening and I'm not sure what is going on. Please help!

Why does the wifi keep disconnecting on the Macbook Air (Bought September 2013) ?

Is this only my MacBook Air, or is it with everyones. The wifi keeps getting disconnected and i would have to switch off and then switch on the wifi in order to reconnect.

Hi Ettedos,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're seeing unexpected behavior on your MacBook Air.
I'd recommend starting with the Wireless Diagnostic built into Mavericks:
OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.4 or later
Use the Wireless Diagnostics application included with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.4 and later to identify and resolve Wi-Fi issues. For further information, please see About Wireless Diagnostics.
