Uploaded system updates; now having problems playing video or games, might be missing plug-in?

I made the recommended system updates for my imac, after which, I can no longer view music video or play video games on Safari. I do have flash player 9 since I have Adobe CS3 and Rosetta is ON. If it is a plug-in issue how do I fix???


Any help would be great

Thanks

That Flash Player is out of date. Please read the following bearing in mind what iMac you have (you don't state that):


You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html


You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version, 10.2.152.25, 10.3.x beta, or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.


* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html


You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):

and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
