Flash Player 10: Bad Apple Support Info

Over on the download page http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/internet_utilities/adobeflashplayer.html Apple says:
Flash Player 10.0.22.87
System Requirements
* Mac OS X 10.1 or later
* 500MHz PowerPC G3 processor or higher
* Firefox, Safari, and Opera
Please note: you can download the updater but it won't install on OS X prior to 10.4. So Apple's information is wrong.
If a site has media that requires Player 10, you won't be able to view it with Flash Player 9 and your browser may hang.
The "need to update Flash" message appears, for example, on videos at Huffington Post.
The beachball of doom appears, for example, on videos on Daily Kos.
This based on problems on a G4 running 10.3.9 / FP9 / Firefox 3. If you try to play certain videos which apparently require Flash 10, Firefox goes into infinite beachball land until you execute a Force Quit.
These problems do NOT appear on my Dual Core running 10.4.9, same version of Firefox, and Flash 10.

I repeat: Apple's information is wrong.
From Adobe's Flash Player 10 site:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/systemreqs/
Platform
Browser
Mac OS X v10.4 or 10.5 (PowerPC)
Firefox 2.x, Firefox 3.x, AOL for Mac OS X, Opera 9.5, Safari 3.x.
Mac OS X v10.4.x or 10.5 (Intel)
Firefox 2.x, Firefox 3.x, Opera 9.5, Safari 3.x
--- and ---
Note
Flash Player 10 is not available for Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows ME, *Macintosh OSX 10.1 – 10.3,* and Red Hat® Enterprise Linux 3 and 4 operating systems. To download the latest Flash Player 9 for these operating systems, visit the following TechNote.

Apple's iOS platform (iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch) has never, and will never support flash.
First on this; Thoughts on Flash. This is from Steve Jobs regarding Apple's views on Flash (2010)
Second; Adobe stops making Flash for mobile devices. This is from Adobe themselves last year stating that they would stop making Flash for mobile devices.
If you can find the App equivalent of the programs you are looking for, then congratulations, however, if you require specific 'programs' requiring flash, then the iPad is certainly not for you, and returning it would be the best choice (granted you are still within the return period).
The lesson in this; Research what a device can and cannot do prior to purchase

Come si fa ad avere adobe flash player su dispositivi apple??

ciao a tutti, come si fa ad avere adobe flash player su dispositivi apple? o qualcosa che renda lo stesso effetto, uso il dispositivo per lavoro e molti siti non i si aprono per metà dove ci sono animazioni e cose del genere,...anche il mio stessos ito come la risolvo?? grazie

Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

I'm trying to find instructions on replacing the memory module in an older MacBook (1,1). This is the model that has the battery on the back. Anybody know where I can get this info? (It's not listed in the Apple Support info)

Can't install Flash Player 12 on Apple Macbook Pro w/ 2.6 GHz Intel i5 proc. Adobe needs to fix it

Can't install Flash Player 12 via Safari on my Apple Macbook Pro 13" w/ 2.6 GHz Intel i5 processor. Error message says "User does not have sufficient privileges." I've worked w/ Apple Tech Support, tried various fixes, no change-it's not a setting on the Macbook. I've emailed Adobe requesting a fix. Any suggestions?

Adobe can't fix user permissions on your MacBook... and "User does not have sufficient privileges" comes from your OS, on your MacBook, NOT the installer.
Have you tried a "Clean Install"? (offline - NOT using Safari) How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
or a COCOA install:
Right click the installer and choose "Show Package Contents"
Go to: Contents/Resources and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file

Adobe Flash Player will it be supported on an IMac and update ok?

Hi, I am thinking about purchasing an IMac 21", can anyone advise me to if this system will be able to support Adobe Flash Player and if so, are there any problems when trying to update Flash Player? I have tried Googling this but there are so many conflicting comments, it gets confusing. I am also unsure which IMac it will be as in intel or PCC. Help please Janine

Mac System Requirements.
Intel Core™ Duo 1.83GHz or faster processor
Mac OS X v10.6, v10.7, or v10.8
Safari 5.0 or later, Mozilla Firefox 17, Google Chrome, or Opera 11
512MB of RAM; 128MB of graphics memory
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html
These are the Sys Requrements in order to run the latest version of Flash. Any Mac will be able to run some earlier version, but it will not be safe. Flash is constantly being updated and patched against exploits.
In order to be able to properly reply to your question, we need to know the Mac model no. you intend buying. But If you meant iMac 21.5", it will be able to run the latest Flash. There were no 21.5" PPC iMacs, and I'm fairly certain there were no 21" PPC iMacs also.

Found out last night that i couldnt watch a live stream confetence because i couldnt download the flash player. why does apple not allow to do that and is there an alternative way other than flash player?

found out i couldnt watch a live stream coference because apple wont allow to download adobie flash player. why is this and is there a way around it to be able to catch more of live stream in future.?

In the future, there won't be any Flash. Adobe, who makes it, has cancelled future versions for mobile devices like the iPad:
http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2011/11/adobe-kills-mobile-flash/
You should check if there is another way to get the live stream. For example, I sometimes watch online classes on a site that uses Flash for the video. But they also provide a non-Flash video stream that can be watched in an iPhone or iPad web browser, and an iOS app that you can also use to watch the stream.

Flash player lags bad with Firefox but not with google chrome,what is the problem ?

Every time i try to play any game using flash player with Firefox i have a lot of lag time. I have to stop playing and wait for things to catch up to play to play any more,I do not have this problem with google chrome playing the same games.I have updated all add ons and plugins.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a month ago

Everyone can blame flash player if they want, but the truth is for me I went from an earlier version that had plugin container which created lag for me. I disabled the plugin container in about:config settings, and firefox worked fine. Plugin container screwed up any videos i tried to watch on the internet by freezing, lagging, and crashing firefox. I was fine after I disabled plugin container, but then eventually some time later down the road I received a warning that i would soon be forced to update my mozilla so I eventually/reluctantly gave in and complied. At this point the same problems started again!!! I disabled plugin container again and it did help a bit right away. But this version 12.0 even with plugin container disabled with just a few tabs open I receive choppy video (like a snapshot of the video at 3 seconds in, and then another snap at 6 seconds in) I'm only seeing snapshots of the video like every 3 seconds while the audio continues on fine. That"s how bad the lag is. This is horrible performance for a browser. If I try to load a video while one is already playing, just that little bit of stress (2 youtube videos open at once) is all it takes to crash this poor performing version of firefox. I mean I can't even close the tabs after these situations and the audio sometime runs after closing for me as well. These problems did not start until the version changes of firefox and the addition of plugin container, not flash player. I have been a loyal mozilla fan, but my patients is wearing so so thin with the performance of this browser at the moment. Unfortunately I just realized for the first time ever I actually have to (against my will) install another browser just to watch videos. How sad is that? Considering watching videos is one of the main uses of a browser, I consider this version a failure. How could I not??? I guess I have no choice but to Chrome it up. I hope a fix for this problem can be found soon for I miss the great performing days of this previously top performing browser. Fingers Crossed!!!

Flash Player 9 No Longer Supported

As of February 8, 2011 Flash Player 9 is no longer supported. Adobe will no longer provide security updates for Flash Player 9 and recommends that all Flash Player users on supported systems upgrade to the most recent version of the player through the Flash Player Download Center.
Details here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406791.html
The latest version of Adobe FLASH player is 10.2.152.26
New versions can be obtained from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
It is advisable to use the UNinstaller (to remove older versions) before installing the new version: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
Note: There us an ActiveX version for IE users, and a separate plug-in version for users of alternative browsers (Mozilla Firefox, Opera, etc.).

Hello,
In another thread titled "Flash Player 9 crashes Internet
Explorer 6"
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=44&catid=184&threadid =1236801&enterthread=y
I described the exact same symptoms as yours.
I too arrived at the same conclusion as you.
I believe that since my Pentium II (200 mhz.) does not
support MMX technology, then that explains why Flash Player 8 and
newer always crash the first time I visit a webpage supporting
Flash content.
I am wondering if the reason Flash 8 and 9 get installed
without alerting the user that their CPU does not support MMX is
because there is no flag in the Windows configuration file to
indicate that this is the case.
If such a flag exists and is incorrectly set, then perhaps by
changing it, then Flash Player would load with an alternate set of
software routines to mimic the missing hardware instructions.
I am trying to find out more about how the installation of
Windows goes about detecting and advertising the presence or
absence of MMX.
