Facebook says Flash is out of date?

Facebook says Flash is out of date?  Adobe says Mavericks not supported.  Download of Flashplayer works but i won't install.  Help

No Help.  At the Adobe Flash  site I used their help process.
1. Is Flash installed or enabled?           Answer:    No
2. Enable flash on your browser.            Answer:  Be sure Safari Prefs/Security have JAVA ENABLED
          Problem:  Safari 8.0.4   does not have this question box in its security page!
Apple website, when asked for help on Flashplayer, simply states "Flash Player not supported on this computer."  What does that mean?
I have MacBook Pro cira 2010 with OS X 10.10.2 installed.

  • Firefox 34.05 says plugin is out-of-date, insecure, and thus disabled. But...my version is higher than the blocked version

    Upon updating to Firefox 34.05, I've been faced with the fact that this version of Firefox (erroneously) thinks some of my plugins are out of date, and has disabled them, for my safety.
    For instance, it tells me that "Adobe Acrobat Reader is known to be vulnerable and must be updated". Upon clicking the link to update it, it informs me that "Adobe Reader 9.5.1 and lower has been blocked for your protection.". Okay, cool right? An update should solve that.
    Problem is, I don't *have* a version of AR that is 9.5.1 or lower. My version is, according to Firefox itself, version 10.1.4.38. So why is it blocked? Updating the version, as advised in other threads on similar issues, does not seem to work. In fact, the Mozilla plugincheck tells me that my version is up-to-date and is fine.
    It is very inconvenient to have to open an entirely different browser, like Opera, just to do certain things that I could previously do with Firefox.
    I'd also like to voice my overall disapproval on the way many features of Firefox (enabling disabling Javascript, images, certain stylistic features, the add-on bar) have been done away with and users are being told "you can install an add-on to add that functionality back on". It has always been my understanding that the less add-ons installed the better, given that they are apparently the number one problem when it comes to Firefox having issues. Having to disable 5 new add-ons anytime I want to troubleshoot a problem is not convenient, and makes locating the source of various problems more difficult.
    I have no idea why Mozilla is so committed to making changes that users hate, and act as if having third-party add-ons to restore functionality is any kind of solution.

    <blockquote>
    Firefox 34.0.5 is not doing the blocking as it is due to the blocklist. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/
    Adobe Reader '''10.0 to 10.1.5.*''' has been blocked for your protection.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p158 (Blocked on October 5, 2012)
    You were looking at another blocklist page which was https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/blocked/p156 posted on same day.
    The https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ is not always accurate or reliable (needs to be manually updated) as Adobe has not been keeping the Adobe products versions to check for updated on that page as the recent Flash updates on December 9 has shown.
    It is however accurate when it says versions in Plugins panel of Addons Manager is outdated.
    There is Adobe Reader 11.0.10 though it seems like Adobe still provides 10.1.4 at http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/ yet newer versions are at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=10&platform=Windows
    </blockquote>
    James, why does the Firefox addon page link to the 9.5 "blocked for your protection" page instead of the 10.5 blocked page? Is that a mistake/failure to update on Adobe's part? That seems like something that should be controlled on the Mozilla side, since it has the 10.5 blocked page in existence as well. Should someone be notified that it's giving the wrong page to people?
    The adobe update you linked to made it stop saying it's out of date, but what about the Java Development Toolkit? (As pictured in attached image #3). How should I go about getting that up to date?

  • My flash is out of date

    It appears to me that my flash is out of date. When I try to download the new one the "DOWNLOAD NOW" option goes off and a message comes up: Your antivirus software must allow you to install software.WHAT SHOULD I DO?

    Hi Joao,
    What is the OS and version you are using?
    Is the 'Download Now' button on an adobe.com webpage, or is it in pop-up dialog window?  If a web page, what is the entire URL of the page?  If a pop-up window, please post a screenshot of the window (see How to post a screenshot in the forum)  Also, what antivirus software do you have?
    Thank you.

  • Running OS 10.8.2, Safari . Trying to watch video on CNN, It is blocked an window pops up Adobe flash player out of date. Is this real or an attack

    Should you download adobe flash player after Adobe flash player out of date, Is this an Apple message or an Adobe message.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Safari users are seeing a message telling them to update Flash Player. That's because Apple has blocked Flash because of a security problem that was being used to hack PCs and Macs.
    In your case, accept to download the Flash update and it will take you to the Flash Player download website. If you aren't sure, you can download Flash manually > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer After installing the update, restart the Mac

  • Updated to 5.0.1, Mozilla and Google Plus still says it's out of date.

    I got an invite to Google Plus. When I went to the site, it said my Firefox was out of date and needed updating. So I did, to 5.0.1 Even my "about Firefox" says it's up to date.
    However, when I got to Google Plus it still says it's out of date and when I go to the Mozilla Firefox page it too says it needs updating.

    Same computer that you posted here with?
    If so, your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up by another program that you installed, and it says you are running Firefox 3.0.11, not Firefox 5.0.1. <br />
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
    type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter <br />
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' <br />
    Filter = '''general.useragent.''' <br />
    Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. <br />
    Then restart Firefox

  • The Flash player plug-in has been disabled and when requested I updated it. it still says I am out of date. this is on a 64bit compuet

    When flash player stopped working the image came up and said I needed to update flash player. I have a 64 bit W7 computer and Adobe installed v11-64mss. When checking the plug-ins, Firefox still says my flash player is out of date.

    Are you downloading it directly from Adobe - of from the site where you get the error message?
    Never download from a third party site as you may get an older version or a corrupted version.

  • Can't run videos on Safari, only on Foxfire.  On Safairi I get a message that Adobe Flash is out of date, but I can't update-it won't take ID or PW.

    I can't run videos using my Safari browser, only on Foxfire.  On Safari when I try to run a video, I get a message that says my Adobe flash player is out of date and to download new adobe flash.  However, when I try to run the Adobe Flash player installer, it won't take my Apple ID and PW.  I tried creating an Adobe PW and ID, but that doesn't work either.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

    it should require the name & password for an admin account on your computer - not an 'apple id' or adobe one...

  • Adobe flash player "out of date"?

    When I was on Facebook, a pop-up said my Adobe flash player was out of date. I did not download because I just wasn't sure if it was completely safe or not. How can I tell?
    Also, does anyone know when the last update for Adobe flash player was? Thanks.

    A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this page. Follow the instructions on the page in that case. Otherwise, the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. Facebook is an open sewer overflowing with scams and malware. If you see fake update alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.

  • I have updated my Adobe Acrobat plugin three times today but the firefox plugin check says it is out of date, a problem as I repeatedly encounter "The Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed" when I attempt to download pdfs.

    I am attempting to download pdf's from a library search on JSTOR. I can view the pdf but cannot download them as they say "The Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed". I have been to the firefox plugin check and have updated Adobe Acrobat three times in the last hour, but it still says my plugin is not up to date. This leads me to believe that this may be the source of my crash errors.
    I updated Adobe Flash from the same firefox plugin check page and after one try it now says I am up to date, so my system is obviously accepting these updates.
    Help!!!!!

    The following solution is useful for people who have the full version of Acrobat 9, but are getting the error message "the Adobe Acrobat plugin has crashed". You probably want the features in the full version of Acrobat, but still need to be able to open PDF files from your Firefox browser.
    Go to Tools > Options > Applications. Scroll down and change all of the Adobe Acrobat files to open with Acrobat 9 (or whatever version you have) instead of "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". This may not be as handy as having it use Acrobat inside the Firefox browser, but it will still let you open PDF files without having to uninstall the full version of Acrobat. Hope this helps.

  • When I launch Firefox, Adobe Update says Reader is out of date, but it is not.

    I don't even use the Adobe Reader plugin, since, on a Mac, it doesn't work anyway. I use Firefox PDF Plugin, instead. But, when I launch Firefox, Adobe Update launches and tells me that Adobe Reader is out of date. When I launch Adobe Reader and check for updates, it says that it's up to date. I wouldn't care if it just happened once, but it continues to happen, at least once a day. It's very annoying. How do I get it to stop, since it's wrong, anyway?
    Mac OS X 10.5.8
    Firefox 3.6.13 (Adobe Reader plugin not installed)
    Firefox PDF Plugin 1.1.3
    Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    There seems to be a SEVERE lack of information on this issue and evidently no one is doing anything about it.
    The available info simply leads you in circles.
