Hi,
That Installer Helper HTML area should not be empty. IF you Interact with it,
VO usually can read info about what’s going on. It’s the only area that is
usually of any use to you. If there are any apps open like Safari, Chrome,
System Preferences etc, that use Flash in some manner, they will need to be
quit, otherwise, Flash won’t finish installing. As mentioned, I often get a
message about FlashBridge Cross Platform needing to be quit and the only way
I’ve found to do that is through the Activity Monitor since it is not really an
app.
A few questions:
• Do you have an item called Flash Player in your System Preferences?
• If so, what version does it say you have installed?

Hi Tim and anybody else who can help,
I am having immense difficulty installing flash. Is the installer really buggy
or something?
I'm at the point where I've downloaded the disk image. I open the installer
app. I'm warned about this and I continue. I'm asked for my computer username
and password which I type in and press enter. I get a window called adobe flash
player installer. Next to this is an installer helper html area which is empty.
That's all. There's a close button and nothing else, and nothing seems to be
installing.
I've tried going through system prefs again to re download it. I hit the
download link and nothing downloads. Any ideas?

Hi,
There was a discussion about this just a few days ago on this list. A few
varied but similar responses. The basic gist, if it’s Flash,
• Go to System Preferences.
• Press on the Flash button.
• Select the Advanced pane.
• Interact with the Scroll area.
• Navigate to the Check Now button and press it.
• If there’s an update available, you will be told in a dialog at this point.
Choose Update.
This will take you into your browser and directly to the latest Flash
installer. I usually just press tab until the Install Now link is read, then I
press return. It will then download to your Downloads folder and you can open
the .dmg file and run the installer package from there. If Safari or another
Flash needing app is running, the installer will pause asking you to quit them
all. Sometimes there’s a “Force Close All”, sometimes not. If the “Flash
Bridge Cross Platform” service is running, you’ll need to quit that process
from the Activity Monitor app which is located in the Utilities folder.
Other than that, the only thing you may need to do is use VO-shift-space to
activate a button while in the Flash Installer as the regular VO-space doesn’t
work for these buttons.
HTH.
Later...

I think it's the Adobi Flash Player, but I'll find out more accurately for you.
Sorry I can't be more help yet, but quite frankly I don't really know what
he's on about as I don't use it.

Hi all
I'm asking this on behalf of a friend. He has a Mac, and uses Adobi an awful
lot to listen to media files (radio etc I believe). Anyway, he wants to update
Adobi but doesn't know how to do it on his Mac using VO, as this is the first
time he's had to update since getting the computer. So was wondering if someone
who does know could send me some instructions whichh I could pass on to him on
how to do this?
Many thanks.
