- Macbook Air (Early 2014) I'm on the version 10.9.3 (Mavericks) 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5. I just had gotten my macbook air about 4 days ago. So when I wanted to watch yourube videos, it won't let me and it says I need to download adobe flash player and so I did. I followed the steps and all. It downloaded till 97% and stopped.
- Often, the easiest way to resolve failed downloads is to try the download again using a different browser. For example, if you're using Internet Explorer on Windows, try Firefox. If you're using Firefox on Mac OS, try Safari. Make sure that your computer meets the Akamai Download Manager minimum.
Important Reminder: |
Flash Player's end of life is December 31st, 2020. Please see the Flash Player EOL Information page for more details. |
Then click again on the Install Flash Player icon on your desktop. It should work after a try or two (it almost worked for me, then said there was an error, but I clicked on the Install Flash Player icon yet again and it finally installed properly, and I can use Flash Player now).
