Why does my installation of Adobe Flash Player fail on my Macbook Pro?

Installation of Adobe Flash Player_17au_ta fails on my Macbook Pro OS 10.8.5

I have followed all the steps in "Flash Player Help / Installation problems« Mac OS

https://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-rvm.html#main-pars_headin...

I have successfully run the Adobe Flash Player Uninstaller. And I still get this message (in the installation 3 of 3 window) " Adobe Flash could not be installed".  I did a restart after the uninstall before running the new version 17 installation (Firefox and all software programs closed)

My browser is Firefox 37.0.2

FYI-I have Flash CS6 v.12.0.2.529 installed on this computer, I removed the Flash Player in the folder.

As per instructions, I set Adobe preferences to allow Adobe to install updates, and closed Firefox (and closed all programs) to uninstall and install.

Try this:

Click on the following Adobe link. Go down to the bottom where it says, "Still having problems?". Click on the link for your browser..

That worked!! I'd done everything before that and had just given up. Thanks!
