Installed Flash and it said it was successful but it doesn't work?

[phoebeh1217]

I installed the Flash Player and it said it was successful, but when i went to use it the page that says "you need flash to view this content" came up. So, i uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but the same thing happened. Then I checked the preferences on safari and made sure javascript and plugins were enabled (I tried to enable java too but i couldnt find it on the preference menu). This didnt help and it still gave me the same message. Then, i went to the adobe website and they had a button that checked to see if flash was installed on your computer and when I clicked it, it said i didnt, but it was installed. I have tried pretty much everything and have read all the forums and nothing seems to be working.

The computer I have is a MacBook pro, version 10.9 and safari is version 7.

Thank you

I am suddenly experiencing incredibly bizarre Flash Player 12 problems in Windows 7 64-bit in both the Firefox 27 and IE browsers. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a way to post the appropriate details here in a new forum topic in order to get the help I need.

Thanks for your assistance!
