Plug-in Failure Safari Flash

Hi,

I have been having this strange error trying to open flash content on internet I get: Plug-in Failure badge.

Flash only works on chrome. Safari, Firefox & Opera cant play flash.


Flash version: 11.8.800.94

Safari: 6.0.5

OSX: 10.8.4


Tryed:

  1. compleatly removing flash and everything adobe from computer and reinstaling
  2. removed java
  3. removed all plugins and exstensions
  4. removed all browsers except safari (because I cant)
  5. cleaned disk & repaired disk permissions & repaired disk
  6. reinstalled combo update with the latest safari 6.0.5


Now the funny thing is that after instalation of flash you get this page: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/completion/aih/?exitcode=0&type=install - it automaticly opens in chrome and chrome is not a default browser.

When i uninstaled chrome it wouldnt open anything after instalation, and after reinstaling chrome and uninstaling and instaling adobe again it again opend the page in chrome???


Please if anyone has any ideas help.


I had this problem since I updated flash player some time ago (about a month).


Also! : I would love to try the older version of flash player (like 10.3.) but safari blockes it. Is there any way I can unblock older versions?

I found that I need to move flash from internet plug-ins (blocked) to normal internet plugins folder but I dont get internet plug-ins (blocked) folder.

Adobe has recognized the problem with older (2006-2007) Macs - but they don't know why yet.

You will have to downgrade to Version 12. Follow their instructions - it worked for me.


PS: Download both files first, then de-install and re-install - as each file requires you to close Safari to perform the task.

Simple solution:


1. Uninstall Flash player using the Adobe uninstaller: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player_ osx.dmg


2. Go here and get an older version: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html (I chose the latest version of 12: Flash Player 12.0.0.77). Unzip & install as normal.


No need to mess around with Terminal or resetting your browsers.

Thank you a.goodwin... Your solution wurkz for me...


I was ONLY freaking out for two dayz till i used my head and came to Apple Communities for a real solution... This is the BEST community(cuz I am an Apple user) for solutions... In here, we can learn more from real users than the retail people in the retail stores... It seems they sell great but not good on the "solution" detective wurk... So thank you for the band aid till Adobe/Apple figure out why this is happening...

So.....all the solutions here have NOT worked for me....i still get a 'jittery' playback of Flash videos streamed from the web in Safari

I have uninstalled flash with the flash installer...then reinstalled each of the version 12.

i have manually deleted the flash files in the internet plugins folder....then tried again....

still nothing


the only fix that is working right now is to use Firefox........which IS using ver 12.0.0.77...and nae chance i'm updating that right now...but


i really hope there is a fix for my situation.......my mac is


Late 15" 2011 MBP...2.4GHz i7...16GB....SSD....OSX 10.9.2....basically my laptop is not one of the older affected models as stated on adobe's site.....


i like safari....but is it time to move?
