Hello,

The password requested is your system password (what you use to log into your system).  Not your Adobe userID/password.

Why doesn't the instructions tell you that there are several types of passwords?

The dialog window requesting the password is an OS dialog window, it is not a Flash Player window.  I understand the confusion, but we can't modify a system dialog window with additional information.

If you're system does not have a password, you should be able to continue the installation with out it.  Ignore the password field and click the OK button.  If your system does have a password and you don't recall what it is, I recommend Googling something like "reset lost os x password".  This search returns many results, and some vary depending on the OS version.

And now my problem: what to do if you don't have a clue towards what your system password is???
