If you ever read my previous ranting over not being able to install Flash 9... http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51840 it's now installed! (summary - Flash 9 won't load on the new intel based macs.)
I really don't know why. This is what happened:
1. I recently learned that on the dock, if there's a little black triange under an icon then it's open. So there's the possibility that I previously had a browser open and didn't know it.
2. I was at yet ANOTHER (!) site that was 100% flash and for no good reason clicked on the download flash window and ....
3. I made sure all the browsers were closed and it downloaded.
This was probably the 30th time I tried to do it in a month. I really don't know why it worked, but it did.
Does anyone know if Adobe/macromedia has fixed the problem or was it my error? There are more than a few people who were having the same prob as me. It's hard to believe that all of us just didn't know how to tell if we had a browser open...
Question: Why is it that even if I don't see any open windows that an app can still be open, anyways?!!
