Trying to install latest Flash update (version 22) on Mac running 10.11

Double click on the installer file, flash icon bounces for about 2 minutes in the dock; then nothing and no black for under the icon.

Any help with this much appreciated.

Install the Java update and all will work just fine. I did that and no problems after that.

the problem appears to be with the install file itself. I have no problem downloading it. I have no problem unzipping it. When I double-click on the "Install Adobe Flash Player" icon, it exhibits the behavior described by the original poster, that is, it bounces for about 2 minutes in the dock; then nothing happens and no black dot under the icon. I have tried downloading the file multiple times, from different browsers.

Come on Adobe, fix this! Obviously there's a problem, since a number of people are having the same issue!
