Hello. I have been trying to watch ESPN3 on my G5 iMac, which I have done
often in the past. Now, all of a sudden, I am receiving messages saying that my current Flash Player is not supported and to download the current version. I have been unsuccessful with multiple attempts trying to download a Flash Player version for my iMac G5 / OS 10.5.8. Is there anyone out there
familiar with the problems I am having? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you kindly.;)

Find your Flash version and make sure it's the latest version available. Never install or update Flash from a pop-up on a website. Always go to Adobe's site to get Flash or updates. As your Mac and OS version are older, it may be possible that the latest Flash version available for your OS is still not current enough to be compatible with the website.
 
Flash Player for Mac 10.5.8

I found a fix for the flash player problem which would not run on my mac using safari.

In mac hd/library/internet plugins/ there is a file called java plug in cocoa bundle.

Move that file to disabled plugins and all websites now work with flash.
