Flash is not Adobe's priority now ?

it is SAD to see Adobe flash is no longer in company priority

No Flash Builder either. I really think they're trying to help the 'typical' person. By that I mean most people who visit flash sites are typically told by outdated scripts to visit adobe.com to get the latest Flash Player. Putting the word 'Flash' in there in general might drive those people in the wrong direction. It's a slippery slope. If you put Flash then you'll need a Flash Player in there with instructions on the difference (typical users don't care).
I don't see Flash going anywhere. AIR is doing pretty well.

Why play´s Flash Player not Adobe Tutorials on MAC OSX 10.6.8?

Know´s someone why not play´s Flash Player Adobe Tutorials and all other videos on other websites are running?

First thing is to update InDesign to the latest patch.

I can't hear the audio in streaming videos. Un- and reinstalling Flash did not help. What now?

I no longer hear the audio when I try to watch videos in Firefox, though MP3s play just fine. Everything is OK when I switch to Internet Explorer, so the problem appears to be with the browser and not with the Flash plug-in or the websites in question. Just to be sure, I uninstalled and reinstalled Flash, but there was no improvement.

Try using a photo import utility or application for this instead of doing it the archaic manual way. Even Windoze includes a scanner and camera wizard that can be used for this.

Firefox29, on a new win7 computer which has never had ff installed, will not install the latest flash plugin from adobe.

I promise to refrain from venting my disgust :-) but when FF 9 blew up the entire web. I had all kinds of issues so I did things like Bill Gates taught us to do. I re-installed windows 7, brand new, formatted HD and all. The very first thing I did was open IE to download FF29 from the mozilla site and it installed. I went to pages I know have fits with flash on purpose, www.nydailynews.com, for instance and got the message that no flash was installed, do I want to install it? Well, yes, I have brand new FF on a brand new computer, so to ahead. Did the usual, installed Flash, shut down, and even rebooted the computer, and golly gee, the web pages tell me I have no flash installed. Its in IE, and of course chrome, and it appears in the installed program control panel, but I can't use flash with FF 29.
I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled win 7, then installed ff 28. Went to adobe and installed their latest flash version, and still no flash in any version of firefox. I also checked the option to never update, but when I rebooted an opend FF29, it miraculously turned into FF29, and of course still does not work with the flash plugin.
I think firefox has had a world of trouble with Adobe Flash for over a year and have hoped for a solution. Basically a browser that cannot run Flash media is totally useless. I wonder why this problem was no addressed and corrected, when instead all the the resources were put into raping my computer and forcing FF29 onto it?
I am not a cry baby, who wants to complain, but will you please fix this issue so I don't have to abandon my favorite browser.. I don't enjoy Chrome, and IE is just not an option for me.
Before you make any moreoverhauls on the UI, could you fix the problems with flash. I find it a little condescending to tell a 25 year user of computers to make sure " you have the latest versions" when in fact I have a brand new install of windows and the very latest from Adobe and Mozilla and they do no wok together, even when I down grade to FF 28, which as I told you, automatically upgrades to FF 29 each time I boot up.
Please help. IF installing the latest Adobe onto a brand new hard drive and install of windows 7 fails, what do you suggest, as the usual " version issue" cannot apply here.
FWIW, I have vista on my laptop with the same problems, the same reinstalls and the same guaranteed latest versions. Since the hd is formtted, there cannot be an residual FF dlls hanging around or in the registry.
I have always seen open source as the way to the future, since the first PC arrived, but its looking like a bad idea.
If you want to build a firefox that works, I will pay for it, so long as I can get help when things break. Browsers are huge in the web, so paying for reliable performance seems like a fair thing to do.
I am sorry, but I am frustrated at the lack of progress towards a solution and really do not wish to be told to see if I am using the latest versions. I have taken every step possible and gone all the way to a brand new machine and FF does not work with flash reliably.
Help? Please?

adobe test page says it is installed. but I said, some pages I visit say I don't have it installed.
I use prefbar ( I delete it and reinstall to make sure its not an issue) usually because it lets me turn off flash and avoid the crashing and locking up but when I check the flash block on prefbar, it says " plugin is not loaded"
I posted from the machine that does not work, but it does not work on my Vista Laptop, or my daughter's computer either. In all cases, I wiped the drives and reinstalled the OS and went directly to Firefox for 29 and to adobe for their latest.
Flash IS installed on my machine... It works in IE, and Chrome, but firefox 29 does not install the flash plugin, even tho the installer says all is well
The reason I went totally clean is to make sure there was no process blocking it or if Java was creating the issue as well. The reality is, I started with a brand new computer, three times, and Flash will not load into Firefox 29 in any case
I have started clean many times now and backed up and installed ff 28. I had no problem with the flash plugin using ff28, . I would have stayed there, but when shut down ff 28 and opened it later, it "magically downgraded to version 29" and i do mean " downgraded -( even tho I had gone into options and said do not install updates.
I am grateful for your attention. I find that web browsers are very important anymore, an a non functional one makes the web a waste. I mentioned www.nydailynews.com and would really not want to make a long list of every page that demands a flash plugin, for they are legion that I don't have, mostly because when the page wants flash, FF locks up. Its will not even let me copy the URL to try and make a list, but the browser is totally locked up and I have to kill the process I get the message I have been getting for about a year that the shockwave plugin has stopped working. There is no shockwave on my computer.
I know it looks like I have two different problems as the plugin does not load, but for instance, when I got it worrking in FF28, it loaded but constantly crashed an locked up the browser with the shockwave message, even tho I never install shockwave any time
Frustration is the word for the day, or the week :-)
Thanks much
Kind regards,

HT5655 Adobe Flash Player not working after installing

I've just bought a brand new macbook pro and have tried to download adobe flash many many times and it just won't work. It tells me that I need adobe Flash player so I click the link, which takes me to the adobe website, I then download it, follow all the prompts and installation is complete. But then I go back and the message appears again that I need adobe flash player!!! I am about to tear my hair out, please help!

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. In rare cases, you might have to log out or reboot to force a Flash update to be recognized. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 6. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
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 3
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, 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, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 4
Open this folder as in Step 3:
/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 5
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 6
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 7
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
Step 8
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

Flash Download from Adobe site says it's not most current and will not continue the install.

I tried to update my flash on 9/20 and my flash seems to have gotten corrupted. Since that update, its not working properly and some sites report it's out of date or doesn't seem to be installed. Tried downloading Flash from your download area today but when the installer runs, it states The version is not the most current. Please download from the player download area. However, I did get my install directly from your website's downloads area. I uninstalled my "corrupted" version thinking it might be causing the issue but I still get the same error with the flash download from your site and now I have no Flash at all.
Please help.

Download and save the uninstaller Save it to your downloads folder - DO NOT run it yet.
Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking one (or both) of the following links and selecting "Save Target as"(IE) or "Save Link as"(other browsers).
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Save the installer(s) to your downloads folder - DO NOT run it(them) yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE you run anything else, locate and run the uninstaller.
When it finishes, run the installer(s) to put Flash Player on your system again.
If you use IE see also:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer

She plants the clock to all videos , advertisements and links. I tried to uninstall and reinstall everything but the result remains unchanged. I am using Windows 8.1 and Mozilla Firefox. I need your help please .
I'm sorry if i did errors of spelling because I used google translation. I 'm french .

I finally figured it out. Flash Player had not installed. I had to de-activate Active-X thru the safety tab on the menu bar and then download the Adobe Flash Player and now it's working. I re-activated Active X after I finished installing Flash,. Hope fully everything will keep working fine!

Adobe Flash Player - not supported on iPad?

I want to watch a tv programme originally shown on Channel 4 UK. I have found the programme but when I try to access it I am told that I need Adobe flash player, which is not supported on my iPad. I have tried iTunes but it is not available. How can I get to see this programme?

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."

Why is adobe flash player not supported?

Why is adobe flash player not supported?

Because.
Apple and Adobe could never come up with an OS that liked flash and a version of flash that worked on the OS. So never the twain will meet. and now Adobe is abandoning mobile flash in favor of other things, so it's become a moot point.
With the surge in the number of mobile devices and the fact that a lot of them don't use flash, site creators will need to take mobile devices into account when they create their sites and assess their accessibility.

Adobe flash does not play in Firefox on my tablet under android 3.2. WHY

samsung Tab 10.1 android 3.2 , Ihave installed my preferd browser Firefox.
When i am forced to use the generic android browser adobe flash content plays properly, when using Firefox. adobe flash does not and it asks for a plugin to be installed, to date i have not been able tp locate the flash plugin for firfox in android 3.2. Is there any help for this??

Originally, Firefox Mobile was not going to support binary plugins, just pure web code, but they had a change of heart and plan to add it in the next major release. Not sure whether the following is up to date -- it refers to Firefox 13 Aurora, which may be a beta by now:

Well, I kinda figured that was true, so I disabled it. Firefox does not lock up now. I suspect it might be a Google Finance page graph that is causing the problem, rather that Flash. Thanks for all your help. J

I just tried the link and it is just fine. If the GateKeeper pops up then open Security & Privacy preferences, click on the General tab, set the last radio button to Anywhere.

Adobe flash will not load - gives only a black screen

For all the (3) users on this computer.   For most browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) The browser window goes 100% BLACK when a flash program link is opened and most of the time the cursor / Pointer freezes (occasionally disappears and all keyboard actions are blocked. Have to force quit or kill the box with the power key (which always bothers me.) No Adobe links work directly via the link in mail or in browser. Symptom in Mail is either the original window goes BLACK or a separate window opens in Black.
Current OS X 10.9.3 (13D65), Memory 4GB on 2.4 GHz Intel core i7 in MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011.
Relevant?? Items:
1.     The Adobe company checking device says Flash is not loaded. I have had flash 9, 10, 11, 12, & 13 working before the latest of   OS X upgrades were made.
2.     An aside, I recently (4 months ago) used a MacKeeper app. Today (not used except for information gathering) the "System Scan says my ProtectMac anti-virus is active and no security problems noted. Also noted was "Serious" issue relating to one of 128 issues (474.3 MB of 'junk' files-36.9 MB in 'Logs", 437.4 MB in Caches.) "Performance" listed as 'Fast.' No action is taken and System Scan app closed.
3.     I seem to have lost my copy of Flash 13 in the Applications folder and the install file tries to load "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_14_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg"
This makes sense as to item 1. above.
4.      Another user loaded adobe flash 11 from a download file called, "AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_11au_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg." I do not understand the meaning of the part of the file name that reads "_11au_" as it seem to differ from other downloads for "_11eu_". Additionally the copy retained is filed in history and had only the user permissions of one user. Also that copy _11au_ has no mention of Browser Type in the name description of the .dmg file; but the "_11eu_" does mention Safari browser.   Since it was from July 8, 2013 I assume it doesn't matter and it should have been superseded by Flash 12 OSX. Mentioned here only for interest. Also, It may have been saved on this computer in case of rebuild for another user on the home network running 13" MacBook Pro 10.6 Leopard.
5. Attempts to reload Flash 13 from 'AdobeFlashPlayerInstaller_13au_ltrosxd_aaa_aih.dmg' as the "Adobe Flash Player Installer" connects to the latest version not yet installed and keeps downloading the Flash 14, which fails and locks up the browser.
6.     The download from get,Adobe.com starts out O.K. After the installer file.dmg completes well, Step 2. is to open it, that, too, works well with an open window of a mounted device on the desktop. The next step is to double-click the icon. That only works so far. A window opens and it has a progress thermometer but it never downloads any product and the link is declared "unavailable" immediately. Refuses to load and will not always give the pointer back or let the browser continue.
7.     While creating this 'Summary' something changed. Using Spotlight I found a different version of Flash Installer on my Mac. I clicked it to go to the Black screen after installer download competes and got a totally different response. I was set to take snapshots of the windows as they progressed. The ".dmg" Icon on the desktop changed from default plain white disk to the red "Flash Player" I had not seen for last 40 days.

Pic 1. is the desktop device icon.
Pic 2. is the Installer.
Pic 3. is the Acceptance popup. ~~Note: This popup shows a backwards rev dated March 4, 2012! today is 10 July, 2014.

Everything went normally and loaded but I cannot test it as all browsers were closed.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

I purchased Adobe Design Standard in June 1993 and have not downloaded it until now. when I click on the software on my account there is no download button. How can I download the software I purchased so long ago? I hope it is not money down the drain. Is there any phone number available so I can talk to an Adobe employee?

Which version of Design Standard are you asking about? I don't think any Creative Suite packages existed in 1993. I think the first CS came out in 2003.

Flash is not Adobe's priority now ?
