Hello,

If you're just closing the browser window, you're not actually quitting the application.  You need to quit the application for Flash Player to install.  There are a few different ways to Quit Safari:

Quit Safari app from the Dock icon:

Mouse over the Safari icon in the Dock

Press CTRL and left-mouse click at the same time

A menu will display. Click Quit to terminate the application.

Use Activity Monitor to terminate Safari:

Launch Activity Monitor from Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor

Hello,

The password being requested is your apple password, this is not the Adobe password. Apple requires the admin password to install some software. If you don't have a password, and your user is an administrator, leave the password field empty and click 'ok' to continue with the installation.

P.S.  in the future, please start a new thread, or post to a thread that is relevant to the issue you are reporting.  These password issues comments are not relevant to this thread.  Posting different topics on one thread is very confusing to users since it combines disparate topics.

Hello,


I'm not sure what you mean by 'skips step 2', nor how it relates to this thread.  Please start a new discussion and provide the information as listed here, Read Before Posting: How To Get A Useful Answer To Your Question.

Thank you.

I can't download the newest version because it keeps asking me for a password that I've never had.  This stupid frigging program has frozen my Mac - can't watch any video.  I've talked to others who have said the same thing - asks for a password that you've never given or been given.  How do I get this to work.  Very frustrating.
