I am having the same problem. I can sign into my Adobe account; just did to get to this forum, but when I try to install Flashplayer, neither my Adobe password or my Apple password works. This is so frustrating!!! Also, why do I have to update Flashplayer

so  frequently?

Hi,

This is the OS, not Flash Player, prompting for the password.  See What userid & password do I need to install Flash Player?  for assistance.


if you don't have a password configured on your system you most likely can just leave the field blank and click OK to proceed.

This didn't work.  The screen still insisted i input a password.

None of my passwords worked.

Any other ideas?

It doesn't give me the option to reset.

Hi,

I'm assuming this is on OSX, if so, please click on the various links in the FAQ I linked to previously for assistance with resetting your password.
