Adobe Flash Player will it be supported on an IMac and update ok?

Hi, I am thinking about purchasing an IMac 21", can anyone advise me to if this system will be able to support Adobe Flash Player and if so, are there any problems when trying to update Flash Player? I have tried Googling this but there are so many conflicting comments, it gets confusing. I am also unsure which IMac it will be as in intel or PCC. Help please Janine

Mac System Requirements.
Intel Core™ Duo 1.83GHz or faster processor
Mac OS X v10.6, v10.7, or v10.8
Safari 5.0 or later, Mozilla Firefox 17, Google Chrome, or Opera 11
512MB of RAM; 128MB of graphics memory

These are the Sys Requrements in order to run the latest version of Flash. Any Mac will be able to run some earlier version, but it will not be safe. Flash is constantly being updated and patched against exploits.
In order to be able to properly reply to your question, we need to know the Mac model no. you intend buying. But If you meant iMac 21.5", it will be able to run the latest Flash. There were no 21.5" PPC iMacs, and I'm fairly certain there were no 21" PPC iMacs also.

When adobe flash player will be available?

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
Puffin
SkyFire
Photon Flash
Browse2Go
iSwifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

Is there an app that will play this. I can't find one....

Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news and media sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
If you do a search on this forum you will find hundreds of other threads on the subject.

Adobe Flash Player will not Start on IE 11

I am having a problem with the Adobe Flash Player plugin for IE 11 on Windows 8.1 Pro x64. Whenever I try to use the desktop version of IE 11 and try to load a page that has flash content on it, I get the following warning:
Whenever I click "Allow", the page refreshes, and instead of loading the flash content, I am asked once again if it is okay for the add-on to run. I do not know why the message the add-on request does not properly display the name. This issue is not limited to a single page, but rather happens anywhere where there is flash content. Whenever I disable the "Shockwave Flash Object" add-on, flash content still does not load, but this message does not appear.
As far as the Windows 8 version of IE (the "app version"), flash content does not load at all and I do not receive any prompt to allow it to load. What's causing this problem and how can I fix it?
So far, I have tried using the "Turn Windows Features On or Off" thingy to reinstall IE. I have done this multiple times in multiple ways. Sometimes I restart, sometimes I do not. Sometimes I uninstall Flash fist, sometimes I leave it installed. I have tried the IE refresh from the Internet Options and this also does not work. I am currently using Adobe Flash Player v14.0.0.125.

The test tree and clouds work fine for me as well and I have found that on some sites Flash will work but not on others. Luckily, flash works fine on Google Chrome which I find I am using more and more requently rather than IE11! Best work-around so far is to not use IE11 if consistent results for Flash are desired!

in IE I keep getting "adobe flash player 10 required" even though I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version. Weirdly, the sound still works

Just to update: Before posting, I tried everything I could find on Flash Player Help | Installation problems | Windows and nothing worked. The flash player stopped working in early November. I know it is some setting somewhere that I need to fix, but I just can't find it. I get a message that "adobe flash player 10 required" but, oddly, I still get sound.

Adobe Flash Player Will Not Work with Safari Mac OS 10.9.2

I have tried numerous times to install Adobe Flash Player for Mac OS 10.9 and get Plug-in error when I try to run it. Before the suggested update, Flash Player ran fine. I would not have tried the update except the files on the web site that I am usinf had a symnbol statiing that the later version of Flash Player was required for it to run.
I did what Adobe suggested and removed the plug-in and then reinstalled it. Still does not work. When is Adobe going to fix it? I think it was not well researched before the release, and it definately has compatibility issues with Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks
Thanks,
Fred

Hi Mike M,
Thanks for the quick response. It worked OK after I did this, and I alerted other users in my MUG just in case they have a similar aged Macs. I hope that the fix for this will be automatic in the next update.

Adobe Flash Player will not play my .flv video

I redered a 5 min editing from Premier CS4 as steaming FLV, but if I try to play it in Adobe Flash Player, the player will open with white background and not play the movie. The file is playing though in other players like Adobe Media Player. Is there something special about a movie flv to play in AFP?
Thank you,

FLV needs to be inside of a SWF container that manages it's playback. The Media Player provides that for you, but the standalone Flash Player doesn't. So you can make one in Flash easily with components, or you can just download any one of the many free ones (for example, I've personally used Jeroen Wing's "JV Player" from longtail)

Adobe Flash Player will not run since installing Firefox 25.0 upgrade

Windows 7 Home Premium X64.
My question says it all. Within Firefox's own system it says the flash player is update and enabled. Any place I go today and want to play something the page posts "Get Adobe Flash Player". I upgraded to Firefox 25.0 just before I retired for the night. Today Flash Player will not work.
Within Tools>Options>Content the option to turn java off and on is no longer there. I believe you folks have CREATED A BIG BUG!!!!!

Your statement: "I missed that Firefox 25 turned on "click to play" as the default behavior for plugins. I assume you prefer to have Flash run automatically if you've approved the site in NoScript."
I didn't read anything anywhere, nor was I aware of the fact that Firefox may have changed "my" plugin settings, or broken them. How many users do you think there might be that have NoScript set this way for one or more sites.
I'm just saying it might have been nice to have been forewarned about this - obviously something that was KNOWN that the update was going to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adobe Flash Player, will not work. Crashes EVERYTIME.

I'm not a huge computer person, so this explanation will suck:
Okay, I have a Toshiba laptop, OS is Windows and I use Mozilla Firefox as my browser.
About 3 days ago, I opened Youtube and tried to play a video, and it said I need to update Adobe. I updated it to version 10.3.183.7.
Now videos/games/moving pictures works. It just says, "Adobe Flash Player failed.".
I've tried it on Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer, and nothing works.
I'm constantly on Youtube, but this is a huge disappointment. I've always used Adobe Flash Player, and it has always worked, but now it isn't.
Before you go and start asking/telling me very technical things, please be aware I will have not a clue what you are saying.
Thanks for reading.

Would you mind opening a new bug on this issue over at bugbase.adobe.com? Here's a post that describes the information we'll need and instructions for generating a crash log:

Adobe flash player will not play

My computer stopped playing videos, it said that I needed to download adobe flash player, I did that but it still will not play videos and t
he same message appears.

What is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?
You write that you downloaded it, but did you also install it?

Many downloads require adobe flash player,apple does not support. What options do I have?

Does Apple have an alternative program to run to support Adobe Flash Player? There are many times I want to download or view something but I can't because Apple does not accept Adobe.

Apple does accept Adobe Flash (I have it on my Mac), but it does not exist for iOS devices.
Read this for the story: Thoughts on Flash
There are a few apps on the AppStore that allow you to view some Flash video content, although the results are variable.
