Does latest Acrobat Reader have a flash player built in?

I have just rolled out a 3D training presentation to a small group of technicians for a field trial. Most of the techs have old versions of reader, so I have suggested that they download the lastest Reader version. So far this has worked for most, but some are still having issues viewing the content. Are there some cases where Reader needs to be updated along with a Flash update?
Thanks!

Does it have Flash Player "built in" - technically, yes.
Do you still need to install the external NPAPI Flash Player plugin? YES.
See here for info.

Install it directly from Adobe. Ensure that you use the uninstaller before installing.

It is best to go to the source, Adobe, to get their software and updates. Sometimes malware can infect sites with messages that appear legitimate, but will, instead, install malware/virus/trojan on your system. Read the following carefully to install and/or update Adobe Flash.
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually. '''''You do not have Adobe Flash (aka "Shockwave Flash" in Add-ons > Plugins) installed.'''''
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

I have installed flash player but the computer does not recognise it

I have installed flash player 11 and checked it is installed on my compuer.
But if I try to play any media it says I need to install flash player.
I went to your website at http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html and got this message.
I have tried uninstalling flash player and then trying again, restarting computer etc. But the computer will not play any media in IE.
If you go to the control panel the player is installed. But thigs like iplayer do not recognise it as being installed.

The message is clear: "Flash Player is either not installed or not enabled". Did you check if it's enabled:

Troubleshooting Adobe Acrobat PDF Portfolios and Flash Player

Urgent Issue. We have a large number of corporate reference files in Adobe PDF Portfolios, created in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.
(1) Since Adobe moved the Flash Player to a separate stand-alone app, the contents of the existing PDF Portfolios are not visible or accessible.
(2) I created a new PDF Portfolio to troubleshoot the problem. After adding files to the Portfolio the files are not visible either. Adding the same file a second time triggers a message that the file already exists, but the file is not visible in any of the layouts.
I get a message that I need to have Adobe Flash Player as a separate app when I open existing PDF Portfolios and it provides a link to the download page. But my computer already has Flash Player 11 installed as a separate app.
How do I get Flash Player and Adobe Acrobat 9 to play together to restore the original functionality?

I found the followinginformation on Adobe’s website which indicates rendering flash content wasturned off in v9.5.1 - http://blogs.adobe.com/asset/2012/04/background-on-security-bulletin-apsb12-08.

When you get the error, itrefers you to a webpage with a link for a flash player download:

Please note that The Adobe flash player you have installed on your machien is different from the NPAPI version of flash player. So you need to have both of these versions of Falsh player installed on your machine.

Is there a way to have one flash player play all moives on a web page ?

Hi,
Is there a way to have one flash player play all movies on a web page ?   For example, you have a list of FLV movies on a page and you click on any them and it will play on the same player on the web page. Or does each movie needs it's own ?
Thanks in advance..
Peter

Yes, for the design I made, the movies are loaded from the server. Here is the code for the design. It is done using AS2, and the stage includes two buttons (s1, s2) for playing the individual videos, one button to play them both (playall), one after the other, and the video object (video1_video) that was added via small menu you find at the top of the library panel's frame.
I cannot say this would work directly for your implementation, but it gives you some things you can look into so that you can figure out how.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
// ignore whatever code is above this... the forum added it, not me
stop();
ncount = -1;
var connection_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
connection_nc.connect(null);
var stream_ns:NetStream = new NetStream(connection_nc);
stream_ns.setBufferTime(3);
stream_ns.onStatus = function(infoObject:Object) {
        for (var prop in infoObject) {
               if(infoObject[prop] == "NetStream.Play.Stop" && ncount == 0){
                   video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
                   stream_ns.play("20051210-w50s.flv");
                   ncount += 1;
playall.onRelease = function(){
      ncount = 0;
      video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
      stream_ns.play("barsandtone.flv");
s1.onRelease = function(){
      video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
      stream_ns.play("barsandtone.flv");
s2.onRelease = function(){
      ncount = -1;
      video1_video.attachVideo(stream_ns);
      stream_ns.play("20051210-w50s.flv");
I don't deal with video very often, so I have not created an AS3 version of this.

In facebook im asked to have adobe flash player? how do i get it?

in facebook im asked to have adobe flash player? how do i get it?

You don't.
As has been discussed here over and over and over and over and over and over again, Adobe does not make a flash player for iphone, and I doubt that Apple wants them to.
You can read countless posts about this if you use the forum search on the right side of this page.

I would like to have a flash player in my ipad

I wouldlike to have a flash player in my ipad . Please if u can help me how o download it??

Exactly what pages do you want to visit? I can quickly test the site for you (as I've done on several occasions here at the Apple support forums, see e.g. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4048509?tstart=0 and https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4045831?tstart=0 ) so that you don't end up having to pay on Flash browsers you may not use at all in the future.
If you don't want to tell us or want to do some testing yourself, go for iSwifter and / or Puffin. They're the two best Flash players. The former browser even has a free trial version and the latter doesn't cust much either.

I have installed Flash Player 5 times. It keeps disappearing, or won't load when I'm running MSIE8.0

I am running Windows XP, MSIE 8.0. I have installed Flash Player 5 times. It keeps disappearing, or won't even install over Internet Explorer. It stops halfway, and tells me to close Internet Explorer because it can't install with it running. I did that yesterday, and it installed when I started IE again, so I thought the problem was solved. Then, today, I logged on and tried to use Flash Player. It was not installed. I re-installed it, and came to the same block. It will not install while Internet Explorer is running.

Download the correct 32-bit or 64-bit uninstaller and installer and exit I.E.8.

Run the uninstaller.
Reboot.

The old Plug-in files are still around
Download the offline imstaller: Flash Player 12.0.0.44 (Mac OS X)
Then do a "clean install": How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
That'll get the old junk out and you'll have a new Player plug-in.

Firefox keeps telling me I don't have adobe flash player, I do have it I just uninstalled and reinstalled it today

There are two version of Flash, ActiveX for IE and Plugin for other browsers. You need to install the Plugin version for Firefox.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[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).
