Why isn't flash working with os 10.5.8?

Asof today, 2/6/13, any flash run program now gives me the "could load plug in. I am running OS 10.5.8 and everything was working yesterday. What should I do?
Michael

I think Flash updates has been abandonded for 10.5 and earlier OS X versions.
If you have a Intel processor Mac, you should consider upgrading to OS X 10.6 via the white retail disk.
Be sure to backup your users data folders to a extenral drive first, as you might have to reinstall OS X.

How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
10.6 will run your 10.5 programs using Rosetta, but not 10.7 or 10.8.

If you have to erase and install 10.6, your machine will be a lot faster than 10.5 was due to video graphics drivers updates, but not so on 10.7 or 10.8.

  • Why isn't java working with safari 5.1?

    I've been playing an online game lately that is powered by java. I saw there was a software update for my mac (os x lion i think) so i updated the software on my computer. Now, Java does not run on my computer, and i dont know how to downgrade to the safari software that i had before. Can somebody please help? This is really stressing me out.

    I have just found out from the Scifinder site at
    http://libinfo.wordpress.com/2011/07/27/scifinder-web-java-plug-in-available-for -safari-5-1/
    that Apple fixed this with a download, dated 20 July 2011;
    Here is the link: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421
    After quitting all browsers and installing the dmg, Safari 5.1 still wouldn't work with it until I re-started my computer - perhaps this just flushed a cache and I could perhaps have had the same result just from flushing caches.
    If Apple would only look at these threads and inform us!
    But I suppose by now most of you have found this anyway.

  • Why isn't Downloadhelper working with Youtube?

    I have been using the Downloadhelper add-on for years on my laptop with no problem. I noticed about three days ago it was no longer working with any Youtube videos. The rotating icon is still working, and when I click on it, it still gives me the file type choices for downloading. However, after I click my choice, the green arrow shows the downloading process, but comes up '0 bytes' for every type of video.
    I am not having problems downloading videos from other sites that I've used before, just Youtube.
    Also, I am able to use Downloadhelper with Youtube on my other computer without a problem.
    Can you please help? Thanks.

    UPDATE July 19th 2013:<br />
    here is the fix for 4.9.17 is as follows: <br />
    For today's youtube changes, please follow this procedure for downloading <br />
    videos that currently generate empty files:<br />
    - Open url "about:config"<br />
    - Create a new parameter called "dwhelper.yt-sig-perm-85" of type String<br />
    - Set its value to "[[2,8],[0,1],[9,21],[65,66],[22,65],[84,85],[66,82],[21,22] (without the quotes).<br />
    - Reload the youtube page (no need to restart Firefox) and you should be done.

  • Why isn't UUID working with the mount command/fstab in OS X Lion?

    Trying to set up an external drive to mount automatically at boot. 
    # cat /etc/fstab
    UUID=55E542B9-60B5-3F47-B845-D9DF3EC30D92 /tmp/foo hfs rw,noauto 0 0
    # diskutil info /dev/disk2s2 | grep UUID
       Volume UUID:              55E542B9-60B5-3F47-B845-D9DF3EC30D92
    # mount /tmp/foo
    GetMasterBlock: Error 2 opening UUID=55E542B9-60B5-3F47-B845-D9DF3EC30D92
    GetMasterBlock: Error 2 opening UUID=55E542B9-60B5-3F47-B845-D9DF3EC30D92
    mount_hfs: No such file or directory
    Tutorials I've found seem to indicate this should work but I'm not having any luck.  The diskutil mount command works fine, but I'm trying to get this automated without writing my own LaunchAgent to run some shell script.  My options are rw,noauto because right now I'm just experimenting and I'm not really worried about mounting at boot, this isn't even the real disk i'll end up using.

    I read that thread but, maybe I'm missing something, I didn't see an actual solution in the thread.  That being said, technically the man pages don't really claim mount actually supports UUID, only fstab.  I suppose diskutil probably reads it for a reference as well since mounting via diskutil does indeed work.  Unless someone comes up with a way to do with with mount I plan on just using diskutil in a LaunchAgent and making sure the correct settings are on to make sure the filesystem stays mounted without users logging in.

  • Suddenly, I cannot sync my Boselink with iPhone. Iphone 4s says Bose sound...not connected. I JUST updated software to iOS 6.1.3. Why isn't this working? I can not play pandora on my Bose.

    Suddenly, I cannot sync my Boselink with iPhone. Iphone 4s says Bose sound...not connected. I JUST updated software to iOS 6.1.3. Why isn't this working? I can not play pandora on my Bose.

    They are absolutely now paired after doing all you said, as I reset both the Bose Link and the Iphone.  Now we have a pair, but no sound on the speaker or the iphone when they are connected. I know they are connected b/c the iphone says they are in the blue tooth setting AND the Bose has a solid blue tooth light on. 
    Now what?  This is beyond frustrating and only happened when I UPDATED ios!
    Thank you!

  • I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my simplePass identity protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE.

    I upgraded for Firefox 4 and now my HP SimplePass Identity Protection (biometric scanner) on my laptop will not work. WHY? It still works with IE but I don't use IE. It worked with the previous Firefox version but now when I use the internet, it doesn't even acknowledge I have the scanner. When I run my finger over it, it opens the settings panel but does not allow use of the already saved information or allow new information to be entered. I need this corrected. Any suggestions?

    I asked this same question, and just received a response:
    "Thank you for contacting DigitalPersona. There will be no update releases
    for DigitalPersona Personal in the future. There will be no updates for
    Firefox 4 nor Internet Explorer 9. IF they work they work, if they do
    not work with DPPersonal, then you will have to decide to either keep
    DPPersonal and forgo Firefox 4 or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona
    is leaving the consumer market and is focusing on business applications.
    In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will not longer be supported after
    Mid-April of this year.
    We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. Sincerely, Tech Team "
    In other words, there will be NO update.

    Hello, & a warm welcome to the Forums & Macdom!
    Might try one of these...
    Instead of joining it from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed. Before I went through network diagnostics and all of that stuff in system preferences, and then I tried the "Join Other Network" method, and now it works like a dream.

    The Interface that connects to the Internet, needs to be drug to the top of System Preferences>Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations and checked ON.

  • Why is scrolling not working with multiple youtube embeds layed out vertically in a stack on one page?

    Why is scrolling not working with multiple youtube embeds layed out in a stack on one page?

    Hi ,  
      This is a sort of performance issue , because your program takes more than the max time set for the program to execute in foreground.
    There are many stuff in program which will hamper your performance.
    I will list down a few
    1. SELECT *
    FROM konp
    INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE konp_itab
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN a363_itab
    WHERE knumh EQ a363_itab-knumh
    in this statement you are using for all entries a363_itab , but before this statement you are not checking if the table has any entry or not , please do remember that for all entries has this characterstic , that if you internal table does not contain any record , then all the records are selected from the database table. So in this case if you table a363_itab is empty , so what you want is no data must be seelcted from table konp , but what will happen is all the records in KONP will be seelcted.
    2. While retreiving data you are using seelct * even though you do not require all the fields , an example is
    <b>SELECT *
    FROM mkpf
    INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE mkpf_itab
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN mseg_itab
    WHERE mblnr EQ mseg_itab-mblnr.</b>
    in this your internal table contains only 2 fields
    <b>mblnr LIKE mkpf-mblnr, "Number of Material Document
    bldat LIKE mkpf-bldat, "Document Date in Document</b> , but to get these 2 fields you are selecting all the fields of the table.
    3. In select you are using into corresponding fields of table , it is not a good practice., so please avoidd it.
    Please understand that you must try to reduce the access to your database tables and try to keep it minimal , because this same thing may happen becasue data in DEV is very less compared to the volume of data in production , so a program working in DEV will take much more time in PRD if not written properly and may result in timeouts , as in your case.
    Please try to make chanegs to the prorgam and see if it works.
    In case you have more queries , please do revert back.
    Regards
    Arun
