Flash player embedded in Windows 8:

Having the latest version of Flash Player, when using the Realplayer some thumbnail images are correct, some relate to other downloads and some have no image at all. Having contacted Real support they say this is caused by the Flash Player so I would like to known how to correct this problem and restore the correct image for the downloaded MP4 and FLV files if possible. Thanks for your assistance.

RealPlayer is almost obsolete. I stopped using it when they started charging for EVERYTHING but the basic player, which is so stripped down it's almost worthless. On top of that, RealPlayer (not the other software) causes so many other apps to malfunction, (QuickTime, Windows Media Player, Flash Player to name a few) it's more bother than it's worth.
There's a MUCH BETTER player and it:
1. is 100% free
2. doesn't cause the problems RealPlayer does
VLC Media Player will play ANYTHING RealPlayer does, and more. I've used it since 2006, when I got rid of RealPlayer.
Download it, install it and uninstall RealPlayer. You'll see a difference.

Lost Flash Player atfer install Windows 8.1

After installing Windows 8.1 , I have lost Flash Player. Adobe refuses downloading of Flash Player. What to do?

That was BEFORE 8.1.... trust me.
IE for Windows 8 has Flash Player embedded by Microsoft and it has NEVER been downloadable from here. The Flash Player Plug-in (for all other browsers) is downloadable and installable on 8 & 8.1, but it ISN'T the one for Internet Explorer.
Your problem is most likely the fact that Windows 8.1 automatically installs IE11, and it's a "rolling train wreck". Literally thousands of web pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Flash Player Updates to Windows 8

I need help downloading and installing the update to flash Player on my Windows 8 computer. I don't understand the Help FAQs. How do I reach a person at Adobe to help me?

You'd need to know how to uninstall it from Windows 8 (via the registry) to manually update Flash Player in Windows 8. Because it's embedded by Microsoft (for IE 10), it updates through Windows Update (in your Control Panel under System and Security and the Windows Update subheading)

How do I disable the hardware acceleration in Flash player on a Windows XP machine remotely?

How do I disable the hardware acceleration in Flash player on a Windows XP machine remotely?
I have a few hundred computers running Adobe Flash Player.
The operation system is Windows XP.
They are Compaq 6005 desktop PC’s, with an inbuilt ATI radeon HD 4200 video card.
We have a persistent issue where viewing a flash video (e.g. something on youtube) causes the video card driver to crash. You are left with no video signal to the monitor. Audio continues and the computer still responds to commands. This only happens when watching flash video.
We have tried:
Updating flash plugin (numerous versions)
Updating the video card drivers (we have tried the last three video card driver versions, including the HP drivers and ATI drivers)
Updating the browsers (this problem happens with IE8/9 and Firefox10/11/12)
There seems to be two ways to work round this issue. One is to disable the video acceleration in the ‘troubleshoot’ section in the advanced part of the display settings area in windows. The other way is to start a flash video, right click, go to ‘settings’ and untick the box marked ‘Enable Hardware Acceleration’.
Doing either of these things allows the user to view flash videos with no apparent issues.
Is there a way to disable the hardware acceleration in Flash without visiting the PC? Perhaps an undocumented option in the mms.cfg file? I understand that you can use an option to skip the video card check, and so force hardware acceleration on, can you do the opposite?
Thanks in advance
Daniel.

Hi.
I have had over 200 views, and no suggestions as to how this could be fixed.
I have also posted in the general flash forum, that thread has fewer views.
If I should put this question in a different forum please let me know which one.
If what I am asking is not possible is there a mechanism for escalating this issue or requesting a feature for the next version of flash?
Thanks.

Flash Player 10.1 + Window printing in IE

Hi,
We have a web application that uses a third party flah elements (Fussion Charts). And we display several charts and some texts and use the "window.prin()" system to print these pages and use them as briefings.
We normally use this ovet IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox and Chrome.
We have detected an error when using MS browsers (IE6, IE7 & IE8) with the latest Flash Player version : 10,1,53,64.
Since we updated to that version, when we print the page via "window.print()" menu, the flash objects are not displayed at its original size but the flash elements are very small... tiny.
I've tried printing other pages wieh flah in them (Even the Adobe web page) and I have the same result... Flash elements are printed tiny and not at the configured size.
This is happening since we updated to 10.1.53.64, we have some PCs with version 10,0,22,87 installed and the printings works fine.
Is this a 10.1 version Bug??
please help!
Thanks in advance!!,
Arman

Yes, I was able get my hand on an earlier release of flash and it works
correclty so it is definitely an issue with the lastest release.
We are having users install a earlier release until the issue is fixed.
Thanks for the information.

Flash Player 9 And Windows 98

I am current having a problem wwith flash player 9 under
windows 98. It seem that when I visit a site that uses Flash player
that Flash keeps using more and more of the system memory to the
point that the system resources will be exhausted, causing the PC
to slow and stop functioning properly. Once either all instances of
IE or Firefox are closed the resources are returned and my PC
operates "normally" again. Depending upon which web sites are
visited this problem can occour after as little as 5-10 minutes.
Returning to flash player 8 removed this problem. Are they any
known confiliction under windows 98 when using flash player 9?
Any help with this problem would be greatly
appreciated.

well I managed to generate some good news. I attempted
installing the version 9 again and it didn't work so I went
throught the install list and located the subdirectory it was
attempting to ubsuccessfully install into and deleted the entire
subdirectory and reinstalled again. this time it correctly
installed version 9 and when I rebooted and ran the version checker
it finally responded with the correct version 9 within the correct
oS win 98. I think what had happened is I accidently clicked the
uopgrade icon and it overwrote version 9 with version 10 and
wouldn't allow me to rewrite the version 9 back into its original
location. anyways it is now working and I'll know better that to
authorize a version upgrade on the 98 system.

When will there be an adobe flash player available to Windows Phone users?

I'm just wondering when there will be a flash player available to windows phone users.

No one here would be privi to Apple's plans on the matter. Submit your feedback to Apple requesting such a feature:

In the interim, there is a reminder program for pretty much every need and taste in the App Store.

Is Flash Player Supported in Windows 7?

Is the most recent version of Flash Player supported in Windows 7?

An FYI for anyone thinking of installing the Flash player on Windows 7:
Installing the Firefox version of Flash was easy. Installing the Internet Explorer version was more difficult. The Adobe website crashes Internet Explorer 8.
The only way to install the Flash player (and the Shockwave player) on Internet Explorer 8 is to set Internet Explorer to Compatibility mode.
Note: I am using the Release Candidate (build 7100) of Windows 7. The problem I described may be fixed by the time Windows 7 is released to general availability.

Flash Player 7 for Windows Mobile crashes Pocket IE

I just downloaded and installed the latest Flash Player 7 for
Windows Mobile on my Windows Mobile 2003 SE device. As a result
Pocket Internet Explorer crashes whenever it tries to open a page
with Flash content - including the adobe.com website. Opera Mobile
seems not to recognize the player and simply ignores all Flash
content.
Is there any way to fix this and to get Flash support on
Windows Mobile 2003 SE ?

You will probably find that Adobe.com is using Flash 8 or 9
content, hence
the crash. Since most up-to-date web sites will be similar,
you may find
Flash 7 is largely unusable for web surfing.
Just speculating.
I don't know for certain.
