Can't install flashplayer on Mac OSX v.10.6.8  I get "missing plug-in" message whenever I try to run a clip. Nothing will run--utube, news clips, nothing.  I have uninstalled and then reinstalled flashplayer. what do I need to do???

Moving your post to the Installing Flash Player forum, where there is at least one user who knows Mac OS intimately.

Download the offline installer here: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_player_11_osx.d...

If it won't download directly, right click and "Save as"

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins

Trash the Flash Player.plugin file from there

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe

Trash the Flash Player folder (the whole folder)

Empty the trash

Reboot

Mount the DMG and run the installer.

BEFORE opening any Flash content in Safari, open Safari>Preferences, and check the Security tab to make sure "Allow all other plugins" is checked.
