FLASH UPDATE FOR MAC OSX VERSION 10.5.8 BUILD 9L31a

[robin11]

I got the dreaded "update flash player message"  Here is the info on my system:  MAC OS X  ......  PROCESSOR 2.16 GHZ INTEK CORE 2 DUO....... 2 GB 667 MHz  DDR2 SDRAM.......  I use Safari.   I went to the udate site and read where it said to uninstall what was currently on my computer before I downloaded the newer version.....Stupid me deleted what was on my computer before i realized there was NO update for my system.  So now I have NO flash player and have no idea how or if I can put back what I had.  Can anyone help me?  As you can probably guess by now I am not a tech person lol..........I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID SOMETHING SO STUPID!!! I KNOW BETTER!!!!!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. Not to worry, the version for 10.5.8 (Intel) is here: Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (Mac only)

2. Being as your Mac is Intel powered, you can (and really should) upgrade to OS 10.6 which will allow you to run a LOT of software that 10.5.8 won't handle. It's only $19.99 through Apple and they ship free. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I thought I was stuck because I couldn't update to OS 10.6.........As you can tell I am not really up on all this kind of stuff. So the first thing I do is upgrade to OS 10.6 and then I can update the flash player. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my question!

Hi Mike! I'm having a similar issue, but I would rather not upgrade to 10.6 at this time. Is there any way for me to upgrade to Flash 11.7 without upgrading to OSX 10.6?

In a word... "No".

11.7 REQUIRES and intel processor AND OS 10.6

It's an "Intel only" app and it WON'T run on a Universal Binary OS, which 10.5 is.
