Operating system: OS X 10.5.8
Processor: 2.1 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Browser: Safari 5.0.6 (have also tried on latest version of firefox)
I have tried so many times to install flash player and each time the download stope (usually at 0%) and doesn't give a reason. I was looking through other threads and I have found that my flash player plugin is in the Internet Plug-Ins (Disabled) folder but I've no idea how to enable it again. Plug ins are enabled under preferences. Could this be the problem? Thanks.
I am having the same problem I've tried to uninstall all of Adobe Flash and reinstall 11.2 with no luck. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.8 on a MacBook w/ 2 Ghz Intel core 2 Duo. Now I'm at the point where almost every video we need to access is restricted. Is there anyone else having this problem? Adobe please fix!!!.
In Safari, go to Help > Installed Plug-ins. Can you see Shockwave Flash in the list?
@Webbervillecarnut: Have you gone through this link: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-pla yer-mac.html#Flash_Player_for_Safari
It has step-by-step information on installing Flash Player.
Also, ensure that JavaScript is enabled in your Mac. (In Safari, click Develop and deselect Disable JavaScript, if the option is selected.)
Thanks,

I don't have shockwave installed. So I should do that first yes? I had flash player before so I must have had it and I have no idea how it has been unintalled. Should I also change the flash player plug-in from disabled? I don't know how to do that! Thanks very much for your help with this.

Update: I installed flash shockwave successfully but still couldn't install flash player. Got the message "This installation failed" at 0%.
Could you both try these steps for installing Flash Player?
1. Download and mount the dmg from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.2.202.235/inst all_flash_player_osx.dmg
2. Right click on the "Install Adobe Flash Player" icon and select "Show Package Contents".
3. Navigate into the /Contents/Resources/ folder and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file.
I've got the same problem, the progress bar hangs up on 95% and won't let me shut the computer down. I've taken all three steps you recommended and the Install Plugin applet hung up as well! It says:
My system:
Mac OSX 10.7.5
2.7 GHz Intel Core i7
Safari 6.0.2
Shockwave Flash installed.
Can you help me to solve this?
