Helps the Possible Flash Player Solution

My system is a 21.5 ", end of 2012 with 3.1 GHz processor I-7 and 16 GB of memory, with El Capitan 10.11.6

I had a problem with the spinning wheel of death and the freezing system in Safari.  I followed him there down to Adobe Flash Player.  Whenever I would uninstall flash player (latest version) problems I had would leave.  This problem appeared to have started when I upgraded to El Capitan, but my memory on that is a little fuzzy... I'm not sure when the problem started.  I tried to live without flash player as well as hope either Adobe or Apple recognized the problem and provide a fix.  After several months hoping probably won't happen.

I watch MLBTV on my computer and it uses flash player to run.  I have Apple TV and I can always get the games, but it would be great if I could once more watch it on my computer.

I'm rather a computer neophyte when it comes to repairs, but I thought that maybe back to Yosemite as my operating system or perhaps using another browser (Chrome or Firefox) might alleviate the problems I am having with flash player.  Someone on this forum can help me to answer this question?  If so, I should of course advice on how to make one of the two solutions.

Thanks in advance for any help offered.

Try to uninstall and then re-install.

Adobe Flash uninstaller

Adobe Flash Player

Try to set up another admin user account to see if the same problem persists. If back to my Mac is enabled in system preferences, the guest account will not work. The intention is to see if it is specific to an account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

Isolate a problem by using a different user account

If the problem is still there, try to start safe mode using your usual account.  Disconnect all devices except those necessary for the test. Shut down the computer and then put it up after a 10 second wait. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the SHIFT key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. Startup is considerably slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a check for directory and disables all start-up and connection, among other things. When you restart normally, the initial restart may be slower than normal. If the system is operating normally, there may be 3rd party applications that pose a problem. Try to delete/disable the third-party applications after a reboot using the UN-Installer. For each disable/remove, you need to restart if you do them all at once.

Safe mode - on El Capitan

Start Mode without failure-El Capitan.

  • * Please HELP - unable to complete installation of the new flash player...

    I've updated my operating system to Mac OS X Mavericks and went on youtube and he told me that my flash player is outdated (SAFARI).  I followed the link to download the new version of flash player, which seems to be 11.9 and the process works very well.  I reached this box...

    Screen Shot 2013-12-15 at 1.27.11 PM.png

    and I am completely unable to click on anything whatsoever.  When I drag my mouse on one of the three options, they highlight, as well as the button NEXT, but they won't let me click on.  The only way out of the window then is to press Alt + Cmd + Esc to force me to leave the Adobe Flash Player installed.  Please help me understand what is happening?

    In addition, some pages (seems like most) Adobe's Web site won't let me not click on anything either, I do a right click on the links, then open them in new tabs to navigate their Web site.

    Thank you in advance!

  • How the updated Flash Player for Firefox without launching Firefox?

    I had a problem with Firefox freeze when I try to do anything other than simple navigation for at least two years. Updates help or disable all add-ons, or relocation, etc. Nobody can figure out how to solve this problem, so I use it as-is. I want to update the Adobe Flash Player plug-in but Firefox crashes whenever I try. Is it possible to update the Flash Player in Firefox with Firefox actually running?

    Thank you

    XP SP3 and latest Firefox running.
    IE8 also running using the latest version of Flash Player.

  • Windows media player; I have a mpeg file played ok before the download Flash Player to move to another place; but now the audio wont play even if the video is very good

    I have a mpeg file played ok before the download Flash Player to move to another place; but now the audio wont play even if the video plays very well.  The mpeg file may was converted from another format mpeg before do me.

    Hello

    1. are you able to play the other mpegs successfully?
    2. what version of Windows Media Player do you use?

    I suspect that the file is corrupted.

    Method 1.
    Check if you can play the same video in a different media player.

    Method 2.
    You may need to check if the codecs work very well to play the file. Check if you have installed third party codecs. Uninstall them and re - install and then check.

    I hope this helps.

    Safari and Firefox share the same Flash Player, so something is happening with Firefox.  Are you running any plugins of ad-blocking or anti-suivis?

    You could try Firefox > help > restart with disabled modules.

    If this does not work, you might just try to uninstall and reinstall Firefox.
