Adobe Flash Player ... Apparently Apple does not recognize. How to access sites that require it?

Is there an app that will allow me to go to sites that use adobe flash player? How to get around this?

Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base, before you post a question.
Thanks for the tip about Puffin. I'll add it to my list of apps that can provide Flash support.
Regards.

How to access sites that require flash

How do I access sites that require Adobe flash player on the IPAD2?

You can't without installing another browser that supports Flash from the App store. Search the app store.
Just keep in mind, that like Flash players for mobile devices, these apps are less than optimal. This is why Flash is not supported on iOS devices by Apple.

What is a good free substitute for Adobe Flash Player? Apple will not download this but I need it for several things I want to do?

What is a good "free" substitute for Adobe Flash Player? I need this for photos to be developed.

You cannot substitute another app for Flash because it is proprietary technology. Apple is adamant about keeping Flash out of their phones and tablets, hence why you will not find it in the App Store. If you want to be able to use Flash on-the-go, consider purchasing an Android device.
Doesn't matter at this point. Android 4.0.3 is the last OS he'll have if he wants flash. Adobe has already stopped development for their mobile flash player.

Recently I cannot view certain attached videos because I need the adobe flash player. It does not get installed and the system says it will do so once firefox is closed. pl.help

recently certain video or pictorial attachments to my e-mails be opened because the system requires the installation of the Adobe Flash player with Java plug-ins. The message also gives a link for installation. It appears to install but nothing really happens. Then the message advises that it will install automatically once security is uninstalled or when Firefox is off. Nothing seems to work. Please help. P.S. I recently also installed the Firefox 4.0 version also

1.Download the Flash setup file from here using Firefox: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

HT5655 Feb 2013 Adobe Flash Player Upgrade Install Does not work - metafile issue

I tried uploading the Feb 2013 update without success. Adobe troubleshooting suggested uninstalling existing version of AFP - which I did - still get "Metafile Instalation failed" - now have NO AFP. Adobe says they are aware of the issue and working on it. Any ideas as to how to reupload my old AFP version??

That's great to hear that you were able to find a solution.
I've been trying to fix this issue with Adobe for 5 days now and no one is coming back to me (tried the terminal cd solution and it doesn't work).
Luigi could you expand on where you were directed to find a solution? Running
sudo ./Install\ Adobe\ Flash\ Player.app/Contents/MacOS/Install\ Adobe\ Flash\ Player
has only given me a "command no found" message.
Thanks

HELP???

I really don't know since you don't tell us what operating system you use.

Adobe flash player downloads but does not work

Hi,
When I download the flash player is says to click on active x and I do and allow and then it downloads and says complete but does not work when I try to watch you tube videos. It says download flash player which I have already done. Please help.

You should see a flash animation if the Flash player was installed properly. That you aren't seeing it means that it hasn't been.
Adobe has a link to a troubleshooting page:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/191/tn_19166.html
Work through the suggestions.

Is there any timeline soon that apple users will be able to open things that need adobe flash player? I can not even play any games on Facebook, I can't open certain files, pictures sent to me or things like forms I news to see when I am not home

I am so frustrated about Adobe Flash player. I can not play any Facebook games, open certain files and pictures and documents that I need to access because not only does this phone not do it but my old Palm Pre couldn't do it either. I have had so many times where I needed to access things either online or via email, or message that I can not even look at because of this. I have to wait until I for home or ask someone else to do it for me which is embarrassing. I rave about my iPhone 4S all the time because it is truly great except for this. When it use to happen with my Pal Pre I figures once I got my iPhone that it wouldn't happen anymore but I guess I was completely wrong. I have had this problem for years and always get a message saying that it's being worked on. Well a couple of years is a long time to work on it. I understand about contracts and stuff but why is it taking a company such as Apple to be able to get it for their products? I get a lot and always want to play the games on Facebook but I can't do it on most of them at least the ones I have tried. So I can not play against anyone at that time I have to wait until I get home or use someone else's computer or something. Please tell me that in the extremely near future that this will not be a problem anymore. PLEASE!! I am sure I am not the only one out there who is having issues and if you do get it available please let there be an upload/upgrade for current phones and not just for future versions of Apple phones. That just wouldnt be very fair to all of your loyal customers and tell everyone to get your products because they are great and end up leaving this little problem out until they by your phone. Especially if they just got the phone they have. You guys are awesome with technology I have faith that you can make this available to all Apple products old and new by uploads or upgrades. Thank you hopefully can give me some info about the status with this or if there wen is one. I would have thought that being a company such as you are that it would already be taking care of right from the beginning and not wait years to take care of somewhat that is very important ro have especially when there is so much our there using Adobe Flash now. I am not sure if this is just a blog with customers or if the company actually sees these posts but I am just hoping company or not that someone knows something about this. Thank you for your time and for reading this entire post if you have even gotten this far.

Oh no... NOT THE 99-PAGER!!! Anything but THAT!!!

HT4479 to download Adobe Flash player my Apple password didn't work

How do I download Adobe Flash Player if it doesn't recognize my Apple password?

Assuming you are trying to install it on a Mac and not a mobile device, you should be able to click the download link at get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and it should end up in your downloads folder as a DMG file. No password should have been required so far. Quit Safari then open that DMG file and run the installer. I believe part of the install process will require the username and password of an administrator account. I assume your account is an administrator account. That's about all there is to it.
If that's not what's going on for you, can you tell us when and what is asking for your password.

I have just bought a MacBook Air and i cannot play videos from the internet as it asks for a flash player to be installed i try to download Adobe flash player and it will not allow me to do so?

Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

Flash player 11.5 does not open background pictures of my website

Flash player 11.5 does not open background pictures of my website scilang.com as well as many others'. 11.4 is ok. However, 11.5 has really messed it up.
I tried it with IE9, Chrome, Firefox. No. No with Flash Player 11.5. Why are such things happening all the time?

I can't comment publicly on dates for future releases, sorry.
For users that have selected "Allow Adobe to Install Updates" during installation, they will automatically get the update as soon as it becomes available. There is some lag in uptake in general (we're really only about halfway into the adoption curve for Flash Player 11.5), so the problem won't be resolved overnight. If you have access to the source, you may want to update your content temporarily to work around the issue. If it's just a generic slideshow, you might want to consider replacing it with an AS3-based alternative. Lightroom distributes a nice flash-based slideshow, for instance.
There are a couple actionscript-based workarounds you can implement in your content until the next Flash Player 11.5 maintenance release has been deployed to the general release audience.
There's one workaround here:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4841531#4841531#4841531
The root of the issue is that the onEnterFrame event isn't getting emitted by MovieClips that embed JPEGs in ActionScript 2 content. This was an unfortunate side-effect of an unrelated graphics optimization. We have tests that check that onEnterFrame is emitted, and that JPEGs are rendered, but not one where we confirm that a SWF embedding a JPEG emits an onEnterFrame event. Because the change was isolated to AS2, we didn't see it in our manual URL testing either, as that testing tends to focus on the most popular sites on the web, which usually host newer AS3-based content. We've added tests to cover this case to prevent it from breaking again in the future.
Anyway, apologies again for the inconvenience. Hopefully this information will help you workaround the problem until the next update goes out.

*Flash Player for PPC Macs*
Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
To check your installed version of FlashPlayer - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
Read this whole post before proceeding. You have to follow steps precisely and there is mention of an alternative version of Flashplayer at the end that some have decided to try.
To update you should download:
Flash uninstaller: [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,] Make sure you get the right one.
Flash installer 10.1.102.64 [http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.1.102. 64_and_9.0.289.0_archive.zip] Open the archive to reveal yet more archives and multiple files. Select: flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg
To install:
1) Run Disk Utility and verify your hard drive. If the hard drive reports errors then it will need repairing first (another topic). If it verifies, run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
2) Back up your hard drive, ideally to a bootable clone. A bootable clone will allow you to restore your hard drive to its original state should something go wrong.
3) Quit all applications to ensure nothing is actively using Flash. You can even do the next step while booted to Safe Mode to make sure.
[Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393]
[What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564]
[Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107394]
4) Run the uninstaller application. Adobe says, "Adobe recommends that you restart your computer before you install a different version of the player."
5) Run the installer application from the .dmg file you got from the second download.
6) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your computer. This is important when installing anything from Adobe.
7) Restart your computer.
Notes:
Adobe installs things all over your computer. Simply dragging a file or two to the trash won't ensure you have uninstalled all old file components.
Comments about Flash and Shockwave. [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2769507]
Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862 - this gets FP to tell web sites you are running a newer version than you really are. This gets around web sites that don't really need a new version but think they know best. If they really do require it then this hack doesn't work.

Flash player plug-in does not work

flash player plug-in does not work

You don't say on what Mac, and you haven't actually asked a question, but perhaps this might be helpful:
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version, 10.2.152.25 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Note that the latest Flash Player update only works on YouTube with Safari in 32 bit mode - until YouTube correct this.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. The first one on the list, Flash Player 10.1 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Bridge does not recognize the raw files from my Canon Mark III 5D Camera.

Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop and Bridge does not recognize the raw files from my new Canon Mark III 5D Camera. How can I get my files open to view and edit? I am using LR3, Photoshop CS3 and Bridge CS3. Do I need to upgrade these programs or is there another way to get these programs to recognize my files?
When I try opening the raw images in Lightroom, the thumbnails say "Preview unavailable for this file" ... when I click "import" an error message pops up that says "The files are from a camera which is not recognized by the raw format support in Lightroom."
When I try opening the raw images in Photoshop, an error message pops up saying "could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file."
When I try opening the raw images in Bridge, it just shows an icon with the file name and CR2.
Please help!!!

Unless I missed an announcement, today, LR6 isn't available, yet, right? Only Adobe employees and beta testers would know what LR6 does differently at this point and they're all sworn to secrecy.
LR5 is available as a standalone version.
PS-CS6 is available as a serial-number-licensed version.
PS-CC + LR5 are also available as a Photography Plan subscription for $10/month with a minimum OS versions of OSX 10.7 (and probably 10.8, soon) and Windows 7.
Bridge is part of PS, not a separate program.
LR5 standalone and LR+PS-CC plan are both available on this page: http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software.html
PS-CS6 can be found on this page: Creative Suite 6 which can be found by searching www.adobe.com for Photoshop CS6 and clicking the Buy link in the on-the-fly search results.
As with any new Adobe software, it might be wise to run it in trial mode for a few days/weeks to see if it works well with your computer, before purchasing and finding out you might need a new computer, first.
