I have tried several times to dowload the version of Adobe Flash Player for my version of software, as well as tried all the troubleshooting solutions on the help page and the installation still will not comlete! I have tried updating in firefox, chrome, and safari on my MacBook Pro Mac OS X 10.5.8. Please help!!! I do have an alias of some sort of Flash in my finder but I am unable to uninstall it or drag to the trash. I am so frustrated....

    Hi John,


    Since you're posting on an OS X 10.5.8 thread, I'm assuming you have a 10.5.8 system.  Flash Player is no longer supported on OS X 10.5.8.  The last supported version is 10.3.183.90, released 09-July-2013. It is available for download on the Archived Flash Player versions page.


    This is very old, and Safari and Firefox will most likely block it, but you can by-pass the block.  Depending on the system hardware you may be able to upgrade to OS X 10.6.8 and install the latest version of Flash Player.  There is lots of information on the web about upgrading 10.5 systems to 10.6.

    What file are you using to install from?  Assuming your Macbook is an Intel machine, if you haven't already, can you try this one?

    This was the one I was trying to install...I restarted my computer and it gets to 95% and then says installation failed....I then tried again and it fails after 6%...would the alias have anything to do with it?
