Distributing Flash player so user can view Embedded Capt video?

We are thinking of including embedded Captivate (*.swf) files in our RH 8 WebHelp files. Our customers will not have access to the internet. So we thought we should include the latest flash player executuble in the software distribution. What do we have to do to provide them with the Flash player? Are there costs associated? Licensing fees, etc?
Thanks in advance.

If it is like Acrobat, and I'd say it is, you can freely distribute Flash provided you have registered you are doing so with Adobe. When we started distributing Acrobat Reader in a previous life, this was as simple as filling in a web form on the Adobe website. Try there for further info.

    just bought an imac  cannot view you tube videos keeps telling me to download adobe flash player 10 how can i fix this

    Good morning.
    Apple no longer includes Flash with the new Macs.  So, if you run into things that require Flash you must, if you want to view them, go to the Adobe site and download the Flashplayer as Paul_31 suggested.
    Enjoy your day.

  • 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!!!

  • How do i get the adobe flash player so i can watch youtube videos?

    how do i get the adobe flash player so i can watch youtube videos?

    Software is always safest directly from the developer or the App Store.
    There are numerous untrustworthy 'update' sites like Cnet & Softonic, & many users won't know that one is to be trusted (so far) but not most of the others.
    Adobe make Flash Player : get it from Adobe.

  • Flash Player hangs users entire Terminal server session

    Hi all, Firstly many thanks for reading this.
    We're running Windows Terminal Server 2008 r2 using Flash Player 11.1.102.62
    Whenever one of our users hits a flash enabled site they experience heavy session lags and even sometimes cause the session to hang until the server times out the session via group policy. This is regardless of the size of the Flash content being played (full screen content or a little ad in the corner).
    To give an Idea of the layout, the Terminal Server is situated locally to the clients (not at a remote location) which eliminates it being a broadband issue for the clients. The Terminal server is a fresh install with a single install of flash( Flash 11.1.102.62 64-bit)
    I've read through the administration guide and created a mms.cfg file. Presently it has the following entries:
    AutoUpdateDisable = 1
    FullScreenDisable = 1
    OverrideGPUValidation = 0 (this was previously set to 1 to see if it would increase performance but it didnt.)
    I dont see any options in the guide to tweak performance as such - just security related. Are there any other references to values that can be changed to increase performance?
    Any thoughts/insights would be greatly appreciated as this is causing a real headache.
    Kind Regards,
    Jon

    Umm... don't use Flash?
    It's a dead web technology.  The world's most popular web devices don't support it (iOS, Androids, etc...)  IMO, you would be doing yourself and your site a visitors a huge favor if you moved to HTML5 video.

  • There is the possibility of making all my itunes podcast so that users can view a repertoire?

    There is the possibility of making all my itunespodcast so that users can view a repertoire?

    If you mean you have several podcasts and would like them all to be listed on the same page, you may be able to get the Store to set up what they call an 'Artist Page' which does this.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/creatorfaq.html says:
    How can I create a page that aggregates my podcasts?
    If you have multiple podcasts listed in the iTunes Store, the iTunes staff can create a single page that lists all of them in one place. We call this page an “artist page.” Note that a podcast can only appear on one artist page.
    To request an artist page, navigate to one of your podcasts, click on Report a Concern, and select Remove a Podcast. In the dialog box, explain that you would like an artist page, give us the exact name of the artist (please don’t include “Inc,” “LLC,” etc.), and list the exact feed URLs or links to your podcasts.
