I got a message that said "plugins blocked" and i need to install an up to date flashplayer. So I tried to install it and installation gets to about 40-50% and then stops. I tried deleting it and using flashplayer 13 but that won't work. I tried with safari and firefox. The button "allow pluggins" is ticked in preferences. I also tried deleting and restarting my computer. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks
What's the OS? 10.6. what? Try it from the DMG installer here. For very important security reasons, DO NOT run anything less than the current 14.0.0.145.

Have you ever installed Click2Flash? Or another Flash blocker? If you have, you may need to upgrade to a more compatible version.
Wuzz The os is 10.6.8. I tried the download from both links about but get the same message "the download is 52% complete" and then it fails.
Eric Root, i uninstalled and tried to install again and the same thing happended. Flashplayer only parttially downloaded.
A Brody- no I never downloaded Click2fLASH.
So bottom line- I still can't downloaded flashplayer and cluess as to why.
thanks everyone for trying to help
I am aware of a similar problem with an earlier version of Flash from not that long ago, but I thought that had been sorted out. Here's what I would try now that you have the DMG installer. Boot into Safe Boot: Shift down as soon as you hear the startup chime, from a restart or full shutdown. Maybe for this try doing a full shutdown. Then try running the installer. Give Safe Boot much longer to boot than a usual bootup.
You also have to be sure that all browsers are closed.
