[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 501890, member: 13565"] Don't worry about not being able to download Flash, if you have the installer handy from before, just use that. So, to begin, navigate to Mactintosh HD ~> Library ~> Internet Plug-ins and move the Flash Player Enabler, the Flash Player Plug-In and the Flash Player.xpt to your desktop for now. Then, save and/or quit any open documents/applications then navigate to: Macintosh HD ~> Applications ~> Utilities ~> Disc Utility Or you can use the keyboard combo Shift + Command + U to launch the Utilities folder in Finder. Select your HD in the left column and click on Repair Disc Permissions. Restart your Mac. To install the plugin in your browser, double-click on the .dmg and then double-click on the Install Flash Player icon. [URL=http://imageshack.us][IMG]http://img120.imageshack.us/img120/9494/picture1fr2.png[/IMG][/URL] Click through the dialogue boxes and close all open browsers. Then to finish, click on the Install button. The plug-in is installed in Macintosh HD ~> Library ~> Internet Plug-ins, so there's no dragging involved, just double-click on the Installer and click through the dialogues to complete the install. The latest version is Ver 9,0,47,0. If you're using Safari, go to Help in the menubar and you can view the installed Plug-ins. [INDENT]BTW, Do you have any of these installed ? If not I advise you to download them.

When you have done that you should reboot your Mac. # [/QUOTE]
