Is the date and time on your computer correct?  If not, that may explain the digital signing failure.

That was the first I checked...I tried to follow the instructions provided by Maria but nothing worked.

Hi ahabba,

I'll need to get some install log files from you to troubleshoot further.  Please review the FAQ Where do I find the Flash Player installation log on the Macintosh? and provide all 4 files (install.log, FlashPlayerInstallManager.log, Adobe_ADM.log, and Adobe_GDE.log).  Upload the files to cloud.adobe.com using the instructions How to share a document or a file sharing service of your choice.  Post the link to the uploaded files in your reply.

Thank you.

Hi ,

Installation is failing due to the following error:

installer: Certificate used to sign package is not trusted. Use -allowUntrusted to override.

This error is being returned by Apple's installer utility, not Flash Player.  Flash Player installer file is correctly signed, however, the OS thinks it's not.  There are a number of reasons that cause this (could be missing root certificate, permissions issue, or some other reason).  You can view the following posts on from other users with the same issue and see if one of these solutions resolves your issue, or contact Apple for assistance.
