Does is matter that I have mac computer & want adobe flash to view work material via citrix/windows?
Ok... this is probably a completely ignorant computer question, but I have a macbook and have been trying now for hours to figure out how to view work training via citrix that connects me to windows explorer somehow (b/c I'm somehow connecting to my work network). So after logging into citrix & my net learning via explorer, I get a msg that states I need the latest version of Adobe flash to view the task. So I went and downloaded the newest 11.whatever version for Mac OS 10.6 or higher and reloged in and still no luck. So I tried restarting computer.... tried logging into citrix via safarie, firefox, and chrome. NO LUCK. Then it somehow dawned on me that perhaps since I'm logging into citrix/explorer, maybe I need Adobe Flash for Windows??? So I tried to do that and my computer wasn't having that and stated it encountered errors.
So am I just chasing a lost cause???
PLEASE HELP
So you do a remote login to a Windows server?
Not quite sure what you are doing with Windows Explorer; do you mean Windows Internet Explorer?
If so, you need to install Flash Player for Internet Explorer on that Windows server. What version is currently installed there? See http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

I just loaded Yosemite on my Mac and now adobe flash won't work in Safari 8.0.4 . Does anyone have a solution ?
If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test.
For a "blocked plug-in" error, see Step 4.
For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced ▹ Delete All...
In the sheet that opens, check the box marked
Delete All Site Data and Settings
then click Delete Data. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
When visiting other websites
From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them. -
Does it matter that I have a sticker on the back of my iPod?
My ipod touch's home button is barely working. The touch is within warranty, but I put a sticker on the back... does that void my warranty? Also, since its in warranty, do you think they'll swap it out/fix it? Thanks!
It shuld not matter. The warranty states:
This warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries or protective
coatings that are designed to diminish over time, unless failure has occurred due to a defect
in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches,
dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to
damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external
cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the Apple Product outside Apple’s published
guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed
by anyone who is not a representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider
(“AASP”); (g) to an Apple Product that has been modified to alter functionality or
capability without the written permission of Apple; (h) to defects caused by normal wear
and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the Apple Product, or if any serial
number has been removed or defaced from the Apple Product. -
Why I have to install different adobe flash player
use two browsers, one Maxthon Browser, the other firefox. The Maxthon is used to viewing domestic webs, the latter foreign webs. I intsalled an adobe flash player. When I use Maxthon, it works well. but then I turn to Firefox, I just cannot open the flash on my jersey web, saying unavailable. Someone told me that I have to install another adobe flash player for Firefox. I did as told. and finally it works. but why I have to install different players for different browsers, how can I use just one that works both for Maxthon and Firefox or other browsers.
I'd never heard of Maxthon before, but after reviewing their site it looks like it's based on Internet Explorer. If that's the case, IE uses ActiveX technology, while all other browsers are plug-in based. Flash Player has two versions, one for IE (ActiveX) and another for all other browsers (Firefox, Opera, Chrome, etc.)

i have the latest firefox 10.02 in win7 and even if firefox shows is installed my adobe flash is not working so i have to run the flash installer every time i start my pc.After this everything works fine until the next start when i have to run the flashinstaller again
There are two versions of the Flash Player plugin. One is ActiveX and only works in IE. It sounds like you have that one installed. The other one works in all other browsers.
What seems to be happening is that you have security software that's blocking one of those versions of Flash/restoring your computer state and so it gets uninstalled when you start your computer. The other possibility is that there are permission issues. Unfortunately, this isn't something that Firefox can control; it's a problem with the Flash installation (Firefox is dumb and just looks in the registry for a list of installed plugins to load).
Make sure that you're an admin on your computer when you try to install Flash and that you check your security settings. If that doesn't work, try posting to the [http://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer Adobe community forums] to see if other people have had similar issues and know how to address them. -
My iMessage number has a +1 under send and receive listed infront of it. Under settings/phone there is no plus one under "my number" does this matter? I have verizon.
Hey brianfromcharlton,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you have a phone number linked to iMessage and the phone number has a +1 in front of it. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
Sign in to an Apple ID on your iPhone. You will see all addresses verified with the account.
Tap an address to enable it on the device. The telephone number will be dimmed when you view these settings on an iPhone.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,

Why when i buy books on my ipad, when i log onto the store it does not show that i have purchased them?
how many books and songs were therefore lost when i had to wipe my ipad?
this is SHOCKING from Apple... this is not in my domain of settings!!!In the iBooks application on the Mac, there is a checkbox to sync highlights and notes across devices.
I don't see a similar setting in the iBooks app on my iPad. It may require iBooks on the Mac as a mediator.
Also:
Can I highlight text and make notes?
Yes, iBooks includes built-in Highlight and Note features. Highlight any word or passage of text within a book. You can also create a Note from your highlighted selection. Review your Highlights and Notes by tapping the Table of Contents button and then tapping Bookmarks. Highlights and Notes appear in their own section under Bookmarks. -
I have just purchased an iMac which has no CD Drive, when I downloaded my Elements 8 from my external drive onto my new iMac I just get Error Code 150.30 does this mean that I have no way of retrieving my existing software?
According to Adobe instructions installation files are not available for Elements 8?

My email internet accounts does not recognize that I have deleted an gmail account. It wants to connect before it sends a message. How do I change this? I thought I changed all my settings to reflect my new mail address - but I must have missed one.

That was a bit of a bonehead move. Did you actually change the email address associated with the Apple ID before deleting the email account?
mikeyg0 wrote:
ive set up a new emal address for my new mac.
That's another bad idea.
mikeyg0 wrote:

Yeah, because the email associated with the Apple ID is deleted and the account is having issue.
Stop using the new Apple ID.
Log into the original Apple ID. Change the email address associated with the Apple ID.
It should then be possible to update the apps associated with the original Apple ID. -
i changed from i iphone 5 back to a iphone 4.. now my itunes does not recognise that i have a iphone 4! how do i convert my last back up (on iphone 5) to my new iphone 4?
In your case you can only restore from a backup that has been created with the same iOS version. An iPhone 4 can only run 7.1.2, and, unless your iPhone 5 did not run the same version, you can't use a newer iOS backup of the 5 on the iPhone 4

My computer crashed after about a week or so into the free 30 day trail of Photo Shop CC. (Also I had downloaded the free 30 day trial of Adobe Audition on same computer.) Can I cancel both of those and start over now that I have another computer?
Thanks!

What is the recommended number of clients per Mac server? Also what are some recommended specs when purchasing an Apple machine that will have Mac OS X server installed? We have around 300 clients that need to be enroled on the Mac server. I want to know what is the recommended amount of clients a Mac server should contain. Also what are some recommended specs to make sure the server will flawlessly?
Hello cpreasbeck,
Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities.
I was able to find the following transition guide for Xserve that provides some workload guidance to determine performance when planning a server deployment.
Transition Guide Xserve
http://images.apple.com/xserve/pdf/L422277A_Xserve_Guide.pdf
On page 9, Performance there is a chart that provides maximum numbers of connected users for various activities such as file sharing, mail, web, calendar, directory services and Time Machine and the CPU used as a server (Xserve, Mac Pro, Mac Mini). This information is a bit dated as the referenced software is Snow Leopard Server (OS X 10.6), and the hardware is older also, but it should give you a general idea of what you might need to look for.

Hello, I have a new Mac Book Pro and I am unable to get Adobe flash player to work. When I install it it says it has been installed. But where do I see the application that it is there?
Check your system preferences.
