Hi,

try the following steps:

1) uninstall flash completely

2) restart computer

3) install newest flash

4) restart computer

If you still face the issue please specify the following :

Is there an error or does the installation just hangs? If it returns an error, what is the error?  We'll need the Flash Player installation log files to investigate further.  Please do the following:

  • Review the FAQ Where do I find the Flash Player installation log on the Macintosh?
  • Configure your system to obtain the install.log and FlashPlayerInstallManager.log files
  • Attempt to install Flash Player again.  When the installation hangs (or returns an error), close out of the installation window
  • Upload the install.log file (only the portion related to the Flash Player installation) and the FlashInstallManager.log (entire file) to cloud.acrobat.com/send using the instructions at How to share a document
  • Post the link to the uploaded log files in your reply

Thanks!
