Flash player has been working perfectly OK on my Macbook pro.  Suddenly several weeks ago, it stopped working.  I cannot view programmes sent with emails.  So I tried to reinstall, but in vain.  At the end of installing flash player it asks for my password.  I have been using this mac without password from the beginning.  And yet why did it ask for it now?  What can I do?  Did Adobe change anything?  Can anyone help?

You need to provide the installer with the admin password, otherwise it cannot complete the installation.

O/p sent me a PM, asking what kind of password s/he needs to enter.

It is your Macbook's administrator password that you need to enter.  Sorry, I don't know much about Macs, so I cannot give you any further instructions.

But there are other Mac regulars here in the forum; please reply to this topic if you still need help, and someone will give you further instructions.
