[QUOTE="Mcman, post: 499595, member: 39248"] Dear Forum, I am using a iBook G4 for almost 2 years and it is the first time that I experience a somewhat strange problem... For no apparent reason at all (i.e. I haven't done anything that I am aware of!!!) flash player appears to have disappeared enabling me to visit many features of a page and indeed many sites altogether! Almost naturally, my mac has identified this error and issues following information which I acknowledge and follow up. Please see sequence of events which unfortunately still don't solve the problem after multiple attempts: 1. Message: "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page" - Install missing plugins 2. Window: Available plugin downloads - Adobe flash player is stated 3. I agree license agreement and start to install (process starts) 4. Conclusion screen: "no plugins were installed" 5. Manual install opens following page: [url]http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash[/url] 6. I download the PowerPC based flash player version 7. When prompted to install flash player, it is announced that i need a shockwave also from the same site 8. downloading and installing shockwave appears to be successful (confirmed) 9. after repeating steps 5. to 7., nothing is solved. I tried to place/drag it all into Applications and all that, nothing works :-( Please can anyone help me out to get flash back on the computer??? What could have possibly happened that it disappeared???? Any comments are welcome. Thanks, Mcman [/QUOTE]
