- Nov 21, 2018 So I was cleaning out my downloads folder when I came across an Adobe Flash Player.dmg, I assumed it must have just been some sort of update when I needed a flash player for something on the browser. So I opened it and when in installer window popped up I (stupidly) without even looking just doub.
- Well usually, it is the remnants of the last Flash Player install / update that you performed. Seemingly it is a harmless dmg. Although there is a well-known malware named Flashback, which disguises itself as the decryptedFile.dmg. If you feel like it might be Flashback, check this link for detailed instructions on how to remove it manually. (Your system is clean if you have to jump from steps 1-3-8-9).
- Jan 13, 2016 Mac OS creates various system level folders of temporary items and caches, which typically remain hidden from the average Mac OS X user. Nonetheless, Mac users using various disk management utilities and apps like OmniDiskSweeper will come across these various temporary item folders in Mac OS X, often at locations like /tmp and /private/var/ and /var/folder.
I had trouble with starting up my MacBook so had to proceed to wiping everything and starting afresh.
I selected the recovery and everything, utilities, Macintosh HD etc clicked erase, and where it says erasing volume, the blue bar has moved so far
And stopped. Hasn't moved any further in about 45minutes.
Is there something I can do to wipe everything off my Mac and start afresh?

- in disk utility, below Macintosh HD I have 4 trojan 'decryptedFile.dmg (flash player)' and my computer is super slow, does erasing Macintosh HD will also erase these files? If not how can I erase? (bear in mind computer so slow a click takes forever)Thank you Thomas in fact I have seen your guide before and had gone thru the steps including repair disk which didn´t work. I am erasing disk before checking hardware. I have posted a photo of the 4 decrypted files in the disk utility and also of the adobe icons in the dock and question marks. Some people say if the adobe appears in the dock is because it is the trojan flash player and they keep jumping in the dock. If this is not malware it seems to be an incredible coincidence that when I start seeing these things in my dock and the decrypted files in my disk utility is when my computer goes so slow (I am typing this in my macbook air because to write this message in my imac would be about 6 hours, I am not kidding, it is completely useless at this point it took me 2 and half days too instal mac os x after disk repair, it took me 3 days to transfer just 100 gigabites and now is taking the whole day (and it says another day more) just to erase the disk. Despite all this the icon of adobe keeps jumping in the dock so, although I am no computer and mac expert, just an user, I am inclined to think that it is malware and it is a shame that mac doesnt´recognize it or have anything here to help me get rid of this. I am not even sure if erasing the disk will work since repairing didn´t work.. all advice is welcomed.

So I have a Macbook pro with Bootcamp installed. The mac side crashed and wouldn't boot, so I tried all the solutions for a fix but nothing worked, so I was going to simply reformat it. I copied the disk image onto an external hard drive earlier this morning so data recovery shouldn't be a problem I'm hoping.What happened was I went to reinstall mac os x Mountain Lion and the Macintosh HD was locked. So i went ahead and looked up some stuff and I got a bit hasty and erased my Macintosh HD partition. However, that caused it to unmount and when I open up the reinstall screen the drive doesn't even show. Now, it won't mount. It tells me to try first aid. When I try to repair it with first aid, it says it can't and to back up and reformat, which was what I was trying to do. I'm headed off to college really soon, so I need to get this fixed fast, any help would be appreciated!No, it's there. It's there on all my backup images. I used to be able to mount it. 10.9.4 won't let me mount it, for some reason. Even tried to mount from the recovery partition. No joy. It's just grayed out. Try to manually mount and it says could not mount. Use First-Aid and try again. First-Aid can't find anything wrong. Still won't mount.
- I have a MacBook that needs its internal hard drive's Macintosh HD partition repaired, as the boot screen freezes on startup. I am running a separate, working mac OS from an external hard drive in order to run disk utility and repair the MacBook's internal OS. The issue is, it has dismounted the internal Macintosh HD partition, and won't remount. And in addition to that, the Verify Disk option returns with, 'The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK.' I've run Verify Disk and Repair Disk a few times, all with that same result. And the internal OS still won't boot.
I have attempted to make a disk image of the internal Macintosh HD partition and save it to my external hard drive so I can wipe the internal hard drive clean and restore the image, but I receive errors when trying to create the disk image, and when trying to erase the hard drive (I know, I should try to erase the hard drive when I haven't made an image. When I tried to erase the hard drive, the image wasn't done and I thought it was. I got an error for erase, and I got an error for making the disk image) I have tried making a disk image multiple times and haven't been able to create one.
There is also a boot camp partition on the internal hard drive which is of no importance as to whether it stays or is erased.Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say 'Verified' then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is 'Verified' then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/. - So, of course there was a bad storm here in Florida and my computer shut down and now won't start up. When you try to start it, it gets to the apple and the loading bar but just shuts off after the loading bar fills up. I got in with the recovery disk and used Disk Utility to repair which just gets stuck at 'Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required.' I'm pretty sure this means that my hard drive is ruined and I need to get a new one or something. I have Applecare still so I can take it in.
The only problem is, like most dumb users I don't have any of my stuff backed up. I'd love to be able to get my important info off the drive before I take it in. I tried to do target disk mode but the other computer doesn't see the Macintosh HD. I also tried to reinstall Mac OS X using the disc but I can't choose the Macintosh HD as a place to install. In fact, the only way I can see the Macintosh HD at all (besides in Disk Utility - and it's greyed out), is if I boot into Windows. Windows will let me see the HD and I can try to get some of those files but the stupid Windows doesn't let me move everything because it won't accept certain filenames or something Windows-y and dumb.
Anyways, is there some reason Windows can see it but the Mac won't?In the settings for the netboot image in server admin check the box 'Diskless'. This will allow the local HD to be erased.
So I think it will be mounted in /Volumes but haven't checked. If you need a more detailed way to enable the 'Diskless' setting say so. - I'm selling my Macbook Pro and would like all personal information to be gone FOREVER! No possible way for the buyer to be able to recover my information. Do i only need to format the Macintosh HD or do i need to erase every option it gives then just reinstall mountain lion?Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If you don't want that your data can be recoverable by its owner, you can use one of the Disk Utility's secure erase options.
To access to that option, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting, open Disk Utility and, after selecting Macintosh HD and going to the Erase tab, press 'Security Options' and select one. This will take a few hours, but you can be sure the files won't be recoverable by the owner.
Finally, reinstall OS X. Note that the owner won't be able to reinstall OS X because it's registered to your account, so he/she may have issues. In this case, if you upgraded OS X in the computer, you can download OS X from the App Store and create a bootable DVD or USB drive with OS X Mountain Lion with Lion Diskmaker - Hello,
I am using Boot Camp with Windows 10. I want to shrink my OS X partition, so I can grow my Boot Camp partition.
From what I read it seems like you need to reformat the HD to 'old' HFS+ instead of the CoreStorage currently used.
Using the Terminal command 'diskutil cs revert disk1' I reformated the drive to HFS+ / HFS Plus (it seems)
This is the 'diskutil list' Terminal command output after the reformatting:
diskutil list
/dev/disk0
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
0: GUID_partition_scheme *251.0 GB disk0
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
2: Apple_HFS Macintosh HD 185.4 GB disk0s2
3: Apple_Boot Recovery HD 650.0 MB disk0s3
4: Microsoft Basic Data BOOTCAMP 64.6 GB disk0s4
5: Microsoft Reserved 209.7 MB disk0s5
However, if I now want to shrink my Macintosh HD using Disk Utility, the action never finishes. It keep saying 'Preparing to partition disk'.
I left it running during the night and the next day it still said 'Preparing to partition disk'
What am I doing wrong or how can I work around this issue?
Thanks in advance,
RobbeWhile it's certainly possible that your hard drive has 'died' the reason that it's not booting is likely because after erasing it, you didn't install a system on it to boot with.
Under your Recovery partition, elect to install OS X on your newly-erased drive. This may take some time because you're actually installing the OS over the Internet. If a system successfully installs, then you can boot from the hard drive and use Time Machine to restore your drive.
It's probably safe to assume, however, that your hard drive is reaching the end of its life. Now is a good time to begin shopping for a new internal drive, I would think.
Thank goodness you had at least one backup scheme in place - while your drive may be fried (since it won't restore from your backup) you haven't lost all of your data.
Clinton - I back up my entire system making an image with Disk Utility (as well as Time Machine). Time Machine doesn't back up Paralells VM files, so I went to grab it from my Disk Utility .dmg file that I made. It mounts 'Boot Camp' just fine, but refuses to mount 'Macintosh HD', which is where the file is stored.
Any ideas? It has to be possible to mount this!

I have tried multiple monitors and different display adapters without success. I want to know what the next step to fixing itzmclearan,
Are you using a PC monitor and adapters or do you have access to an original Mac monitor? When you say that it refuses to boot, is it just that you can not see the startup screen? How long does the hard drive noise last?
The next step is the process of elimination. Check the PRAM battery first. A dead battery will affect the video circuit in many machines. Look online for batteries with free shipping. If you go to Radio Shack, they will have replacement batteries that cost more than the computer.
A way to avoid buying a battery is to do what is called a 'warm boot.' You start the computer, listen for the chime, give it ten seconds, then hold down the command key + control key + the soft power key (the key at the top right hand of the keyboard or top center on some smaller keyboards). If you hear the chime again then it restarted. This gives the computer a fresh start with power supplied by the wall power and not the battery power. For newer computers, you turn the computer on at the power button, turn it off and back on immediately. That will wake up the video circuit on a Quadra 605 or a 6100 PPC. I do not remember ever needing to do that on an 030 processor computer so the on-off-on trick may only be for the power supplies in the 605 form factor.
If you can find a PDS to NUBUS adapter you could test to see if the onboard video is bad by using a NUBUS video card. The IIsi uses built in RAM so it will not be a video RAM problem. How much RAM do you have? The chime means that you have some form of RAM. Incommpatible RAM or no RAM will result in a sad musical sound.
Your best alternative for testing older computers is to find a Mac user group in your area. Someone will have spare parts, monitors and other resources. Your video adapter may not be properly configured and the easiest way to test that is on another machine that you know works with your monitor. Unfortunately, buying the battery is just a gamble. It that does not fix it, you have just spent good money on a bad motherboard problem. Post back with the name of a city near you and maybe we can find a user group to help out with parts.

http://lowendmac.com/ii/macintosh-iisi.html - Just got my copy of Leopard and attempted to use Time Machine. The external drive I have is 1T brand new and my MacPro does see the drive; DiskUtility won't let me format it as Mac Extended or Journaled despite the box the drive coming saying it would allow OS X compatibility.

To re-partition the drive, open Disk Utility, select the entire drive, select the Partition tab, select '1 partition', select the 'Options' button, and then select either 'Apple Partition Map' or 'GUID Partition Table', click OK to dismiss the sheet, click 'Apply' to repartition the drive.

[topic moved to Flash Player forum] - flash player won't install on safari 7.0.3 . I can download but the install stops at 50%. I have allowed plug ins.
any hints?jabenn, I believe this to be caused by an issue with the Flash Player Install Manager, which Adobe is aware of.
As a first step, you could try removing it from the folder Mac HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Flash Player. If you see a folder in that location entitled 'Flash Player Install Manager', you need to trash it (you will need to enter and Admin password to authorise that step). This is recommended by Adobe. Now try again.
If that still fails, you can either follow the full Uninstall / Re-install process set out here: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1267823 .. or use my three-step workaround to save time, hassle and restarting. This starts at the scenario described in your initial post (i.e. a stalled installation):
Force quit Adobe Flash Player Install Manager
Locate and mount the Flash Player Installer disk image with Disk Utility
Locate the Adobe Flash Player installer package within the Install Manager app and run the installation from Finder
Hope this helps. Enjoy.
--- Those steps in detail:
1. Force quit Adobe Flash Player Install Manager
Press these three keys together: Cmd + Option (or Alt) + esc
Select Adobe Flash Player Install Manager in the popup window titled 'Force Quit Applications'
Hit return or click the button labelled 'Force Quit'
2. Locate and mount the Flash Player Installer disk image with Disk Utility
Open Disk Utility (in Applications/Utilities folder or find it with Spotlight)
On the left hand side, your attached drives and mounted volumes are listed above a horizontal line. Below that line you should see one or more disk images (named e.g. something.dmg). These are recently accessed disk images - including one containing the adobe updater.
At or near the bottom of that list you should see something called decryptedFile.dmg
Under that you might see a (greyed out) volume image called Flash Player
Double click decryptedFile.dmg (or the Flash Player volume if you can see it - it makes no difference).
This should mount a volume titled 'Flash Player' and automatically open a finder window showing the contents.
The volume 'Flash Player' will show up in your Finder sidebar and on your desktop (unless you've chosen not to show External Disks in Finder preferences)
3. Locate the Adobe Flash Player installer package and run the installation from Finder
You should by now have a Finder window open showing the contents of the volume 'Flash Player'. If not, open a new Finder window and click on Flash Player in the sidebar. The sole contents are an app called Install Adobe Flash Player.
Right click the item 'Install Adobe Flash Player' and select 'Show Package Contents' from the contextual menu that appears.
This opens a new window showing a folder called 'Contents'. Open it by double clicking to reveal the contents including a folder called 'Resources'.
Locate and open the folder 'Resources' and look for a file called Adobe Flash Player ('Adobe Flash Player.pkg')
This is the Installer Package for the update. Double Click it.
Don't be put off by the words 'Welcome to the Adobe Flash Player Installer' - this is not the Adobe Flash Install Manager (the one that failed you earlier) this is Apple's 'Installer' app.
Follow the steps to the end then eject the volume Flash Player in the normal way (e.g. Finder sidebar)
Open the Flash Player control panel to check the current version has now been updated.
Don't be put off by 'PPAPI Plug-in is not installed' - you can ignore it.

You're missing a file that was made visible by the 10.8.5 update. Hundreds of thousands of Mac users all over the world deleted it, not knowing what it was. It causes this when it's missing.
Download this file: 'Secrets' pereference pane by right clicking and choosing 'Download Linked File As'. It'll allow you to see 'hidden' files.
And this one: mach_kernel.zip
It's the one that's causing your problems.. rather it not being on your system is causing them.
Install Secrets, and open your System Preferences.
Open the Secrets Preference Pane, and check 'Show hidden files'
You'll need to press the 'Quit this' button,
and restart Finder, by right clicking the Dock icon.
Then, place the mach_kernel.zip file in the Mac HD directory,
and unzip it. You should see a 'faded' mach_kernel file appear.
Trash the zip file.
Reopen your System Preferences and uncheck 'Show Hidden files'.
Instead of quitting Finder and relaunching it, reboot your Mac.

from Japan - I'm using Mac OS 10.7.5 Snow Leopard and while installing Flash Player it stops and tells me to quit Dashboard Clinet. I've gone to force quit and have stopped everything on there other than the install program and I keep getting the same thing. Is there a way to stop the Dashboard? When I open it there does not appear to be a button to do so.I feel your pain and have a solution that should work. I have been battling this for several weeks now, finally gave up, and wrapped up a call with an Apple engineer an hour or so ago. Come to find out, regardless of what the O/S tells you in Activity Monitor about Safari, Dashboard, or both 'not' running, these processes are in fact being called. It seems that, at least in my case, on an up-to-date OS X / Safari combo, and with The Weather Channel widget installed, you will never get the newest Adobe Flash Player update to install. As soon as you remove The Weather Channel widget, the Adobe Flash update process will again work normally. It makes absolutly no sense, but I and the Apple engineer were able to reproduce the fix on my two systems and completely reproduce the issue and the fix on his. Not certain where the 'blame' for the issue rests, but I suspect this is a issue with The Weather Channel widget - or at least how it is interacting with the O/S and Safari. I suggest checking for any installed/active widgets that grab/stream any soft of content via the web, removing them, and re-running the Flash updater. I hope this helps. Please reply to let me know if this did the trick for you too.

Which version of Flash Player do you have installed, and are you running Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP Pro, Windows XP Home, Linux, Ubuntu, Fedora, or do you have an Apple Mac? If you have an Apple computer, which version of OSX do you have installed? Without this specific information, we cannot assist you very much.
Message was edited by: Xircal - I use the Family Safety on our computer. We have accounts for our child, self (as administrator), and guests. Flash player shows as installed and works on the child and guest accounts. But, it does not appear as installed on my administrator account. We use McAfee for protection, but that doesn't seem to be the problem. I have tried installing and uninstalling several times. I have tried installing using internet explorer and firefox. We have windows 7. I don't know what to do. It used to be installed.Administrator account: there is no flash player listed in the Manage Add-ons list. Adobe Shockwave Flash Object is enabled. When I choose to look at all add ons, ActiveX shows up and is also enabled.
Standard Account: there is no flash player listed in the manage add-ons list. Adobe shockwave flash object and activeX are both enabled.
I looked in the 'all add ons list' for both accounts, and there is not flash player plug in. But flash player works in the standard account. Am I missing a plugin?
Just to try it I enabled a google toolbar. Flash player still doesn't work.

See also http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html - Hi
I had problems with my flash player on windows 8, it kept crashing before any of the videos were loaded and freezing my computer temporarily in the process.
I was advised to uninstall and reinstall flash player, so i uninstalled it and now cannot reinstall it (i can download the installation thing from the website but it won't open).
What should I do to correct this? And please bare with me, I am useless with computers.
Thanks
GeorgeFinally got flash to install.
