With Chrome you don't need to install Adobe Flash Player because it has it's own flash player built in. If you use Safari you technically don't need adobe flash for most videos because most videos can be viewed in HTML5 format, but some require Adobe flash player which would require you to download Adobe flash player from Adobe's site.

Do you have an adminstrator account and password?


If so, update Flash Player.


1. System Preferences > Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All

Press the "Delete All" button


Install Adobe Flash Player.

Follow the prompts. Click Safari in the menubar and select “Quit Safari”.


Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.






Otherwise you have to reset your computer to the factory settings.
