I did exactly the same thing on my MBP and it worked without a problem. I checked Systems Preferences - Flash Player and altered it from Never check for updates to Allow Adobe to install updates and tried again, no luck. I checked Systems Preferences - Security and altered it from Mac App Store and identified developers to Anywhere, no luck. I checked Little Snitch and Adobe Flash Player is not on it and any Adobe product I have blocked, (because they keep checking for updates even though I tell them not to), is exactly the same as on the MBP which worked perfectly. I then created a rule to allow Adobe Flash Player. Still the install fails at the retrieval. Oh, I tried to download it via Google chrome and after half an hour it still hadn't download the file. Matt.

If it does not indicate that Plug-in version 11.5.502.149 is installed. Click the 'Check Now' button and download and install the latest version Or go directly to the Adobe site: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ & download and install the latest version for your operating system.

Or when you would have received a message to do so? I would suggest you restart your Mac, then: Try downloading the Update from this direct link, then drag it from downloads folder to your desktop. Run the installer from there. Adobe Flash Player update 11.5.502.149 Direct download link:?<?http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.5.502.149/install_flash_player_osx.dmg> If that does not work you might have to uninstall Adobe Flash Player using the Uninstaller for whatever OS X system you are running, and then try to install it again. <http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html> Cheers, Ronni -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
