Unable to run Adobe Flash on my Mac 10.6.8. Uninstall previous version but that did not help. Appreciate your input and help with this, Thanks in advance.

You shouldn't have any difficulties - it does work OK on 10.6.8. The first thing to try is to download it again, from
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
(only use this site, never install from any other site that offers it) and install it, making sure to quit all browsers before running the installer.
You can check that it has installed properly by going to the Adobe version test for Flash:

If the installation fails, the next stage is to create a new admin user account on your Mac, and go through the same process. This would bypass anything in your user account which may be conflicting. Installing it in another user account will also make it available to your own account, so again if the version test works in the new account but not in the main one it is a conflict issue, though I don't know what might be causing it.

Do you mean Adobe Flash Player? 11.3 300.271 runs w/o issues on my iMac w/all three OSs. Follow Roger's steps and you should be in business.
Ah, yes, the actual Flash application might be different can of worms.
