flash drive

For the last three mornings I awake or restarted my iMac (el Capitan 10.11.6 running)

and eight or nine copies of Flash Player listed under my devices.  One of them is

19.6 MB, others are 18.2 MB.

I have installed flash drive in / Applcations /...

When I click on one of the devices, I get a window install Flash Player.  It does not provide any

details such as version no.  When I click on install it gives the messsage

"You cannot open the application"Install Adobe Flash Player.app"

because it may be damaged or incomplete. "

How can I check that my installed Flash Player is up-to-date and working?

How can I stop the Adobe-fairy playing with my devices at night?

All advice welcome.

I could be wrong, but given the way Flash currently seems to be a behavior can be obtained that you have sort of a fake version of Flash installed.

Flash should be listed in the Apple Menu > System Preferences. What to choose, and there are options to control the way that Flash is updated.

Given your scenario, I think I'd be inclined to remove Flash completely from your system by running Adobe Flash Install Manager, who should be in your Utilities folder (I think). I would also say that you manually remove all .dmg Flash files in your downloads folder (you may first need to eject Flash points listed under devices).

Then, if you need to have installed Flash go directly to the Adobe site (anywhere else) and download to your system, run the installer, then go to System Preferences > Flash and set its preferences by clicking on the different tabs and make your choice.

  • How to use a blank disc DVD-R as a USB flash drive?

    Hi all! I'm running Mac OS X 10.9.5 on my MacBook Pro and I was wondering how I could use a blank DVD-R disc as a form of rewriting for documents, music, spreadsheets, etc. ? My mac Let's burn me to the disc, but I can't rewrite to it after that. Help, please!

    They don't work that way. Rewritable means simply you can erase the disc and use it again. You can't write it during normal use of the disk. This, to a USB flash drive.

    To be same rewritable, you can use a DVD - RW, DVD - r not it is not rewritable. You can look for third-party software that allow you to use the drive as a flash drive, but I am not sure that these programs exist. Not much need for it.

  • USB Flash drive problems

    I have a USB key that does not work. It's a drive 8 GB flash USB 3.0 which has been formatted and works on my Macbook Pro. The problem comes when I try to use it on a Windows device.

    When I format it under OSX Extended it appears under Windows but is empty.

    When I format it in FAT, under Windows it says that the device must be formatted first

    Either way, when I go to format the device on Windows it says that is only 200 MB space

    Any help would be appreciated.

    If you want to use a USB flash drive on the cross-platform (Win, Linux, OSX) computers you have the next chance:

    -MS-DOS (FAT) format:

    If you want to start the drive on a PC or use it with older versions of Windows, you may also need to set the partition to the Master Boot Record (MBR) for full compatibility Windows scheme:

    • Click the drive, and then select the tab "partition".
    • In the "Layout of the score" dropdown, select "1 Partition".
    • Click on 'Options' and choose "Master Boot Record" as the type of partition, then click 'OK' and 'apply '.

    Format discs very quickly, although the total time required will depend on the size of the drive.

    The file system resulting is compatible with all versions of Mac OS X, Windows 95, 98, Windows XP, Vista, 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, is one of the most widely recognized and usable file system formats. What makes FAT ideal of the file system to use for external hard drives or USB flash drives that are designed for use in environments with multiple operating systems.

    ATTENTION! The main drawback to the use of FAT32 is the file size limit, which limits the files on the drive to be 4 GB in size or less. If you need single files to be larger than 4 GB, use exFAT, even if you lose compatibility with older versions of OS X and Windows.

    -Format in NTFS and use a program like Paragon NTFS on your Mac ($ 15/20).

  • How can I delete my flash drive it tells me it is used

    2010 iMac desktop computer, last iOS.1015 El Capitan system

    I inserted a flash drive in order to print a file on it and I couldn't.

    Then I went on goolge and asked how to print from a flash drive, I realized that I can insert my USB in my printer.

    Now when I try to bring it down to throw it in the trash - I am told than others? use it, I'm out everything, even safari and he tells me the same thing?  Thank you...

    You could try to leave by force (Apple Menu > Force Quit...) the Finder that can hold in the file/disk.

    Restart should fix the problem.

    You could also simply disconnect the drive - while it is not generally recommended that it should be strong enough, if nothing is written on the disc.

    You can also use the Terminal commands to force deletions of files or to disassemble the disks, although applications can use them.

    Instead of typing on paths, drag the items in the Terminal window. If this does not work, after return with the exact command that you use.
