What must I do to reinstall any version of flash player on a Mac w/ OS X 10.6.8?

[Guest]

I had the previous version of Adobe Flash Player installed on my Intel Core Duo Mac laptop using OS X 10.6.8 when I was encouraged to download the latest update, version 11.1.102.55. It would not download. I followed the instructions after seeing this question result: Having trouble with download or installation? click here. Then I was offered these choices:

Install the latest version of Flash Player for your browser. Follow these steps:

1. Verify that your computer meets the system requirements for Flash Player
2. Determine whether an older Flash Player version is already installed on your Mac
3. Download and install the latest Flash Player version
4. Uninstall the older Flash Player version (if the installation is not successful for any reason)
5. Troubleshoot Flash Player download issues (if necessary)

After verifying, determining, again attempting the download numerous times, I uninstalled the older version; now I can not use numerous programs which required the use of Flash Player. Attempting to troubleshoot has not proved useful. Now what?

I can not load any Flash Player version and some of my programs are now useless.

So far, after nearly 3 weeks, I'm not too impressed with this forum. No replies? I uninstalled and reinstalled my OS X 10.6.8 operating system and was able to download an older version of Flash Player. However, I am still not able to install the current version, 11.1.102.55, either using Safari or Firefox. What is the issue? Are these forums ever monitored by Adobe/Macromedia technical personel?

I've looked at the FAQ link supplied, but nothing there is new or helpful to my situation, and I'm unwilling to uninstall the older version of Flash Player and be without any version as I have a program on this computer an feature of which will not function without the use of Flash Player.

What applications are requiring older versions of Flash Player be installed?  I'd suggest contacting their support to see if they have an updates version available, as newer versions of Flash Player have security updates applied that we highly recommend you upgrade to.
