Trying to install Flash Player on MAC OS X ver. 10.7.1 LION

[Michael_Stochholm]

Many times I've tried installing all the latest versions of Flash Player, but still when running the installing process, it always stops at appr. 4%.

do you have the installer downloaded locally?

can you look in your "/Library/Internet Plug Ins" directory and make sure the following files are not there

• Flash Player.plugin
• flashplayer.xpt

if you see them, please delete the 2 files and attempt the install again.

This was what I had in the /Libery/Internet Plug Ins.

It is still the same with installing. It stops at 4%.

Do I understand you right that I can use another installer?? I'm using the "common installer" there are as a icon in the top of Safari...

[libflashplayer_so]

try this: Mac FP11 Installer

[Michael_Stochholm]

Safari can't open the link. >PAGE NOT FOUND<  ??

[libflashplayer_so]

for some reson an extra http:// was added to the link above.  let's try again: Link

I'm so sorry. A little bit better, but....

[libflashplayer_so]

yikes...  let's start fresh.

download the uninstaller here: Uninstaller

double check the /Library/Internet Plug Ins directory does not have those flash player files

double check you home ~/Library/Internet Plug Ins directory (if it exists) for the same files

double click the installer dmg and save the installer onto your desktop or your preferred location

quit out of all programs and double click the installer

[Michael_Stochholm]

I'm a little unshure on the difference betwene the /Library/Internet Plug Ins directory and the home ~/Library/Internet Plug Ins directory, sorry.

[libflashplayer_so]

the home Library directory maps to this: /Users/<yourUserName>/Library/Internet Plug-Ins

Lion hides it by default.  the easiest way to get to it...

• when in Finder click the Menu Item "Ablage"
• hold down the alt/option key and select "In neuem Fenster öffnen schließen"

[Michael_Stochholm]

Ok. Done..

[libflashplayer_so]

was there anything in the home Library directory?  did you retry the local installer?  i hope when you say "Done" that it proceeded to the end and you are able to see flash content.

I'm sorry about the confusion, but I did what you wrote and right now, I tried to install, but (as usely) it stopped at 7%.

Is it possible to reinstall Safari (maby Flash Player are imbedded? or do I have to roll back to one of my backups from the Time Capsule??
