Adobe Flash replacement?

Is there an app or something that replaces Adobe Flash for the IPad?

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."

  • The new Oracle Support: Adobe Flash replaces Apex!

    I couldn't believe it! They don't trust their own technologies? Oracle has Apex or ADF, but they use Adobe Flash for GUI of the worldwide Support database?

  • IS THERE A REPLACEMENT FORR ADOBE FLASH PLAYER

    IS THERE A REPLACEMENT FOR THE ADOBE FLASH PLAYER

    I wish someone would come up with an answer to the PPC mac - Flashplayer problem.
    I am amazed Adobe and Apple have dropped support for all us PPC users.
    I live in Spain and have just subscribed to a site which provides access to BBC iPlayer and ITV player but the problem with an out of date FlashPlayer rears it's ugly head yet again!
    I have tried the FPforFBPPC plug-in which does help with playing vids in facebook but it doesn't work with ITV player. BBC iPlayer doesn't seem to use flash at all.
    My PPC G5 mac is in good order and looks fab. Why should I be forced to throw it on the rubbish heap to satisfy Adobe and Apple? Hardly a 'green' move is it? I'm just so ****** off with it. Sorry. Rant over! ;-)

  • How to replace Adobe Flash media player for flv files with GOM player?

    By default, Firefox opens Adobe Flash for flv files. Flv files aren't listed in my application page. How can I swap Flash for GOM or another player?

    Sam,
    Welcome to the forum.
    Where do you need to play this "sprite" (the name for such a Flash video)?
    If you need to add that to a Video, then there could be a few challenges in PrE.
    If you need to add it to a Web site, then Flash Player (free from Adobe) should be able to display that.
    Can you please give us just a bit more info, on how you wish to use the sprite?
    Good luck,

  • Adobe Flash Player and Shockwave crashing has disabled my computer

    I have downloaded a second flash player and it is still the same. Firefox has been crashing daily for a few weeks. I noticed that your adblocker plus was updated 6/4. Since then I have almost no use of firefox, because the Adobe flash player 13.0.r0 and Shockwave crash notices are constantly popping up. Could that update have something to do with why the flash players are not working? Below are an example of the crash details.
    Thanks for the help. I prefer your browser, but this has made it non-functioning.
    In trying to fix it, a window came up that asked would I like to change it back to a previous working image, which was Windows XP. Although this computer is Windows 7, I clicked the box yes, and said I wanted it to work like Windows XP. I see in your Operating System below, that it reads Windows Xp, but this computer is actually Windows 7. I can't find that menu to change unclick and change it back, so that it is working as Windows 7.

    If that doesn't work try Try to disable Protected Mode in Flash 11.3 and above by adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to the Flash "mms.cfg" file located in one of these locations: [46]
    (Windows 32bit) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    (Windows 64bit) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    For example, on a Windows 7 64-bit system, open the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, copy the file "mms.cfg" to the desktop, open it in Notepad, add a new line <code>ProtectedMode=0 </code> and then close Notepad, saving your changes. Next, go back to the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash folder, rename the original file to "mms.cfgBAK" (to save it as a backup) and then drag and drop in the modified "mms.cfg" file from the desktop. [47] [48] [49]
    Note: To re-enable Flash Protected Mode, either restore a backup of the original mms.cfg file, if you saved one, or else re-edit the mms.cfg file to remove the <code>ProtectedMode=0 l</code> line you added. Updating Flash Player or installing a newer version does not automatically re-enable Protected Mode

    There's a Flash Player Projector (standalone) in the Flash Professional CS6/Players folder, but it's usually outdated.
    When browsing to an app to use from the Properties window, go there, but... download this one: Windows Flash Player 13 Projector  and replace the Flash Player that's in that folder.
    If you're looking to test Flash files you've authored, then you'll need the Projector, but if you're just looking for a good player for FLV and F4V, then you should use VLC Media Player. http://www.videolan.org/

  • How to easily get an Adobe Flash CS5.5 Professional project into Flash Builder 4.5?

    Hey all,
    I am new and trying to do the following, can you please guide/help me do it:
    I have a video chat application that is done on Adobe Flash CS5.5. I had the problem of "echo" so I wanted to use "getEnhancedMicrophone()". When I replaced "getMicrophone()" with "getEnhancedMicrophone()", Adobe Flash CS5.5 Professional didn't recognize it. I knew I need Flex, so I installed Flash Builder. And then got lost. What I simply want is just import my "FLA" file (or if I need to convert it to something else using a specific tool, let me know.. I have Adobe Flash CS5.5 Professional and can install other required applications if needed) done on Adobe CS5.5, into Flash Builder, and then "support Flex" so that I compile with the flash-version argument required.
    I am totally new to MXML and Flash Builder, and even Flex. I don't know how to import a FLA and add "Flex" libraries into it simply to make "getEnhancedMicrophone()" work without the need to recreate the whole thing on Flash Builder. Can you guide me please? The output is for a web SWF file, not a desktop application.
    Thanks!

    I have the same problem here. I'm trying to do a stick animation on cs6, but to be more precise, i need to actually draw with a larger brush size. I suggest using the pen tool with the smooth option on. You can't see exactly where the stroke will be, but its better than nothing, and it more or less acts like the brush anyway.

  • AE CS3: Crashes on export to Adobe Flash Video (with audio)

    I have a 10 second comp I'm rendering to Adobe Flash Video. The comp has a wav file on it.
    I have ram previewed the comp and it plays back just fine.
    When I render it to Adobe Flash Video via the render queue my comp crashes at 30 frames in everytime.
    However if I remove the wave file from my comp, AE will fully render the comp to an FLV file.
    I have also tried replacing the wav file with another random wav file - I get the same crash everytime at 30 frames in.
    I also made a comp from scratch and tried to render it to Adobe Flash Video with a wav clip and it crashes 30 frames in every time.
    Please note when it hits frame 30 on the render, a window pops up ( a dos type window ) and then the window closes along with AE right away leaving me with no error messages or even an error log. I was able to get a screen cap of the error and it's attached.
    I am running Windows Vista 64-bit and this is the first problem I've had with AE CS3.
    Is this a known issue and is there a workaround for this?
