I had flash for safari on my 2010 mbp. I then got a message that it was outdated and needed to be updated. Every time I attempt to download it gets to 30% and stops. I've tried numerous times and then just gave up. What are your thoughts. I'm on the latest Yosemite. s this a common problem?
Got a tip for us?
