Direct Download Of Flash For Mac OS X

flash-install-button

That little button for “Installing Flash” isn’t entirely honest. It only downloads an installer app than then downloads Flash. It possible to skip that step, by downloading the actual Flash package from:

http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_player_14_osx.dmg.

The installer app often fails horribly when going through a proxy. Better to save yourself the headache and download the Flash update directly.

I’d like to do that, except I use Chrome as my main browser and I don’t want to have Flash enabled on my main browser. Using Flash is an exception, not the rule.

Hmmm, I wonder if I could selectively turn Flash on just on certain sites.
