Flash player for One Laptop Per Child?

Is there a player for OLPC computers? If so what version of
Action Script does it support?
Thanks!
Bob

Bob,
I ordered one on the first day they made them available, and
still haven't received it. So, I doubt there are many folks that
have access to the OLPC. I will say that it runs a version of
Linux, and Flash player 9 is available for Linux. Whether or not it
runs, how well it works, or if it's installed by default, I don't
know. A better place to ask may be to the foundation itself.

    Hi,
    Just verify the encryption key of the wireless network. Follow these steps:
    connect your computer to one of the four ports on router using ethernet cable
    Open setup page of router by typing http://192.168.1.1 in browser’s address bar, and typing password as "admin" and no user name. Use your password if you have changed it earlier
    Go to wireless tab
    Go to wireless security sub-tab
    If security mode is wpa or wpa2 note down passphrase/shared key, if security mode is WEP note down wep key number 1. This will be your encryption key

  • One Laptop Per Child

    I am having trouble getting on-line with the OLPC.  I have a wireless WRT100 G model.  The laptop wants the encryption key but it will not take it. 
    Before, I had a D-Link wireless and didn't have a problem with connection.
    Does anyone have suggestions what to do?  The Linksys tech support said they can only help with XP and Vista.
    The OLPC has a rebuilt OS for durability.  Suggestions?  JaneL

    how can i install flash player for window 8.1(64 bit) on my laptop?

    For Internet Explorer, you don't. Microsoft has already done it.
    For Firefox, Opera or Safari, use the Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    For Chrome, you don't need to wither because Google puts it in the browser.

    Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
    The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • Is Adobe ever going to do a flash player for Windows 7 64 bit IE ?

    I've had my Win 7 64 bit laptop over 6 months and still no sign of compatible
    flash player for the IE 64 bit. Is there ever likely to be one ?

    I read from Adobe's own site that they are working on the 64-bit version for most everything:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/000/6b3af6c9.html
    They provide instructions for installing on Mac as well.
    I imaging Apple (ahem, Steve Jobs) will still resist Flash on their products until they can get them to run smooth consistently, and even then they're not likely to allow it on their hand-held devices because they don't like developers using cross-compatible languages.

  • Cannot install Flash Player for Firefox

    I am running Windows XP HE with SP4.  IE and the latest version of Firefox are installed.
    In both IE and Firefox, on attempting to install Flash Player with the standard link, I get an error message in a small window opens, title "getPlus+(R): Error," text "Unable to load a GUI," "OK" box.  I got around this by locating a standalone installation for IE, which downloaded an installation file to my computer.  However, this does not work in Firefox, even when obtaining access to that link from Firefox.  The file executes, but Flash Player still shows as not installed in Firefox.
    I cannot find any separate standalone installer for Flash Player for Firefox.
    This error message appears to be generated by the Adobe Installer, a getPlus product.  My thought was to uninstall the Adobe Installer, and try to start over.  However, the Adobe Installer shows up in the list of installed programs reached through Control Panel, BUT clicking the button to uninstall the program does nothing.  The program remains listed.  I cannot find a location for the Adobe Installer program on my disk drive.

    As I said in my first message, Adobe DLM appears in the "Add/Remove Programs" dialogue box, but clicking the Remove button doesn't do anything.  The screen flickers for a couple of seconds, and Adobe DLM remains listed as an installed program.  There is no installed program listed under the description getPlus or NOS.
    I found useful information at http://www.findmysoft.com/news/Patch-to-Fix-Critical-Adobe-Download-Manager-Vulnerability- Released/ .  Not to put too fine a point on it, information at various locations shows that the DLM has been a troublesome program.
    IE did not list Adobe DLM, getPlus, or NOS as an addon.  Firefox listed "getPlusPlus for Adobe 16263" as a plugin. There was not other extension or plugin listed under Adobe DLM, getPlus, or NOS.
    Based on the information at the link cited above, I tried the following. First, in Firefox, I disabled the getPlusPlus for Adobe 16263 plugin.  Removing it was not an option.  First, using services.msc, I disabled the getPlus Helper service.  Removing it was not an option.  Third, I deleted the directory c:\Program Files\NOS and its subtree.  I did not find anything relevant in the Application Data directories.
    I then went to the link on the Adobe Web site to install Flash Player.  (I know, it's already installed, but I wanted to see if the DLM would now function.)  This time, the first thing that happened upon clicking the link to install it was that the site completed a new installation of DLM.  However, on proceeding to the installation of Flash Player itself, I got the same error message noted above, "A GUI could not be loaded."  So nothing changed.  Opening services.msc again, I noted that the getPlus Helper service had been reinstalled, and was no longer disabled.  The c:\Program Files\NOS directory had been recreated.  I tried manually starting the getPlus Helper service, and trying the installation again through the Adobe Web site.  Same result, no help.  And note that DLM is not being cleaned up automatically as part of this process, as is supposed to happen.
    I'm thinking that a previous installation of DLM left behind some corrupted relic that is preventing it from running properly.  Very likely an incorrect registry entry.  But good luck finding that one without help.
    NOS Micro has a link to "Contact Our Support Team" at http://www.nosltd.com/index.php/support .  Maybe as a last resort see if they would respond?  Note that I can't locate a way to get support from Adobe except by paying $39.95 per incident for telephone support.
    Thanks!

  • I can only use Flash Player in one tab at a time, only on Firefox.

    Recently, when I downloaded the new Flash Player, I can only use flash player in one tab at a time. This is only in firefox. I'll open youtube, and the visual and sound both play perfectly. I open up a new tab, begin using a flash website in that tab, and the youtube sound is quiet, only the visual continues to play. I need to multitask with flash sometimes, and this is a big problem for me. Help!

    By default, Flash 11.3 and higher will spin up a lot of distinct processes. You should be able to get quite a cacophony going.
    Have you ever done any troubleshooting that involves changing how Firefox works with plugin-container.exe or the Flash player's protected mode?
    Often it is helpful to disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash:
    (A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    Unrelated, but you can remove the Java Console extensions unless you are a Java developer (and even then, you probably don't need the old ones):
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category

  • Why can't I find Adobe Flash Player for Linux/Firefox 4

    I can't figure out how to get Adobe Flash or Shockwave player for Firefox 4. Running Ubuntu 10.04 and when I try to find them in add-ins for FF4 there seems to be nothing. I am not the world's most experienced Linux guy but since Flash and Shockwave are so common it seems curious that they don't have them as add-ins for FF4. Maybe I'm just so far off track on this one it may be the dumbest question anyone has ever asked. But what the heck, you never know the answer if you don't ask the question.
    Thanks!

    There is no flash player for the iphone and Adobe would be the one to develop one, not Apple. And there are no plugins to install instead, as far as I know.

  • Adobe Flash player for iview

    I wish to watch a tv program in iview.  I installed adobe flash player as directed, but when I went to watch my show it still told me to install adobe.  I now have three "flashplayer" icons on my desktop.  I need to delete two of these and to activate one.  How do I do this.....help please!!!

    While I'm painfully aware of the lack of a version of Adobe Flash Player for the iPhone, more and more Flash-based web home pages are not accessible to the iPhone. I also understand that Flash Player is not compatible with Apple's 'vision' for iPhone Applications. The problem we have is this increasing exclusion of Flash-based web sites and if what I understand about Apple's policy on iPhone Apps is accurate, then we will never have access to these sites on an unmodified iPhone. I can see that one of the problems is that Adobe Flash Player competes with the YouTube Player and possibly with iTunes movies.
    Unless the web pages have a link for iPhones or re-direct iPhones accessing those pages to a non-Flash version of the web page, it seems likely that we are basically, well...screwed. Anyone have a different take on this?
    Do we need an Apple-Adobe intervention? Perhaps over a nice hot mocha latté in Seattle...

  • Adobe Flash Player for mobile (iOS and Android) devices

    I have both Apple iOS and Android devices, and can't install Adobe Flash Player on either.  It appears that Adobe no longer provides Flash Player for any mobile devices.  The company I work for uses a a company called Paychex for payroll and time & labor, and that program requires Adobe Flash Player to function.  I am sometimes in areas where I cannot use my computer and must rely on a mobile device to clock in and out, but I can't do that because you have stopped providing the program.  What do I do now?????

    iOS has never been compatible with Flash, and per Apple, never will be. It's a lost cause hoping for an iPad Flash Player.
    Additionally, Android dropped ALL support for Flash last year. Adobe stopped development of Flash for Android shortly afterward.
    See: "Why can't I install Flash Player on my Tablet?" (Kindle or Samsung Galaxy)
    The reason both Android and Apple gave for their Flash support decisions is that Flash content is very processor consumptive and it eats battery life in mobile devices.

  • Adobe flash player for sumsung galaxy tablet ?

    Does adobe have a flash player for the samsung galaxy tablets ? if not will adobe be developing one soon ? as most websites require adobe flash player inorder to watch the videos online.

    Your Galaxy uses the Android Operating System.
    Adobe stopped ALL development of Flash for Android last year. (July 2012) That includes Kindle as well as Samsung Tablets.
    This is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):
    "Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."
    And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):
    "The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.
    If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.
    If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.
    The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.
    Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:
    Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."

    There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.

    I'm not an Android user (no tablet or phone) so I can't make any endorsements that would hold any credibility, but most of the Flash solutions I've read point to Dolphin as the best alternative.

  • Adobe Flash Player for budget Android phone

    I haven't own any android phone yet. I am a super poor person and my budget only allow me to buy Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 Android Phone. Any phones expensive than that phone are ALL NOT AFFORDABLE.
    I need to use Flash Player as I frequently access flash based website. But, Adobe Flash Player for mobile require a phone with VGA (640 x 480) resolution. The phone I stated above does not meet the requirement.
    As I said above, my budget only allow me to buy Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 and any other phones expensive than that are not affordable. So, tell me what can I do?
    And, to Adobe, why don't you consider making a version for super low-end budget android phone like the one I stated above? Please consider doing something for users with very limited budget. I am sure there are a lot of demands there.
    Regards,

    Hi, I understand what you have explained but Adobe Flash Player can only be available on those phones that are able to run Flash Player. Google owns the Operating System of the Android phones and they decide which phones will support Flash Player and then the Manufacturer produces the phones for Google.
    The phone Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570 (Android) is not on the list
    Just like Microsoft came out with IE9, but I can't use it since it won't work on XP 
    You are smart in trying to find out before you buy a phone that can't use Flash Player:-)
    Do you live in the United States? If not, the Country you live in may have different phones and requirements too.
    This is a list of the Phones that you can look at, then go to the websites to read about other phones and their prices.
