    Many thanks for your reply.  It worked perfectly and I know can access video with my Flash Player installed.  Appreciate your help as it was very frustrating losing my video connection.

    Hey Chris,

    I've installed the Flash player from this link a few times now, and although the installation is successful I get no rotating F on the Flash home page or YouTube iPlayer etc. I've been trying to download some older versions from the archive too, it's the same story. Unfortunately as I also uninstalled before starting the the 10.1 installation I can't get any YouTube etc at all now. Please help!

    Many thanks

    I am using OS X 10-5.8 and have a PowerPC G4 laptop. I tried the version you suggested and navigated to and mounted "/Flash Player 10.1.102.64/10_1r102_64/flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg.    It looked like it was working and stopped at the 57% mark and came up "This installation failed.  Get Support"    I have tried using other OS X 10.1 versions - all to no avail.   Any other ideas?   Much thanks in advance!

    Please try the following:

     

    1. Follow the instructions for uninstalling Flash Player on the Mac: Uninstall Flash Player | Mac

    2. Mount the flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg and try installing again

    3. If it still fails, right click on "Install Adobe Flash Player" and select "Show Package Contents". 

    4. Navigate into the /Contents/Resources/ folder and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file.

     

    Thanks,

    Chris
