Flash version in Web

When viewing the BBC radio pages I get a message that the version of Flash is old. How do I update this?
I can listen to content but not adjust the volume while doing so.

Web sites generally required full Flash 8 or Flash 9 support.
Phones come with Flash Lite which is a subset of full Flash, and it works with local/standalone Flash Lite apps on the phone.
With some phones and their latest updates, there might be a newer Flash Lite version (like Flash Lite 3.0) and corresponding updated browser support. It works somewhat better, but is still not the same thing as full Flash for PCs and browsers in a PC, so many web sites won't work, if they depend on full Flash.
There's nothing much you can do about it, except ask Adobe to make Flash Lite more compatible with full Flash, and then wait for device manufacturers to incorporate that in their phones (after Adobe has done their part).
Other than that, you can also ask web site owners to create web sites that do not depend on technologies that only work on PCs.

Is there an archive page for Flash Player plugins for PORTABLE versions of web browsers?

Is there an archive page for downloads of Flash Player plugin installers for the PORTABLE versions of web browsers like Firefox ESR?
One of my web browsers is Firefox ESR 10.0.7 and it is a PORTABLE version of Firefox that apparently needs a different Flash Player plugin than the normal Flash Player plugin that regular versions of most web browsers require.
I do not want to install the most recent Flash Player plugin PORTABLE version because I've read about problems with it and that's the only version that this Firefox ESR will give me the option to download and install when I try to install the needed Flash Player plugin through the browser.
I already know about the normal Adobe Flash Player plugin archive page, linked below, but that does not have the Flash Player plugins for PORTABLE web browsers.
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
I also looked on OldApps.com and I couldn't find anything there.
Where can I download an older version, possibly one of the 11.2 Flash Player plugins from around April 2012, that will work with this PORTABLE version Firefox ESR?
I tried this question on the Mozilla Firefox help forum but no one could answer it.
Thanks for any help,
digiday

Hi Pat,
Thanks again for your reply. Your solutions seemed like they might work, especially since you were able to tell me where the Windows system Flash Player plugin files are located.
And for a minute or two, I thought it was working. In my first tests in the PORTABLE Firefox browser I'm testing with, it was actually playing some YouTube videos, but then I found that not all YouTube videos apparently rely on Flash to play... apparently some do and some do not, and I found that most of them do require Flash to play. I had tested with some of my own videos that I uploaded to YouTube in the past in my first tests today and they played just fine, but then I started testing with some other Flash YouTube videos and they would not play and I got both the yellow bar at the top of my window telling me to download and install Flash as well as the red banner across the video player that told me I needed to install Flash.
Let me also make it clear that I'm testing this on other sites with Flash videos besides YouTube, and webpages that have relatively simple animated Flash graphics, and those alternate tests are showing that the Flash Player plugin for this PORTABLE Firefox still will not work either.
So to spite everything, I tried actually downloading and installing the newest Flash Player plugin, 11.4 something, (which I was trying to avoid) through the browser, and that only proceeded to overwrite my Windows system Flash Player plugin and it DID NOT place any Flash Player plugin files in the PORTABLE Firefox plugins folder.
I had pasted in the files you recommended in to the PORTABLE Firefox plugins folder, and I actaully included ALL the files from that Windows system Flash plugin folder for this test, but unfortunately that didn't work, and even after I tried changing the name of that one file, it still didn't work.
And I am closing and re-opening the browser in between each of these steps in my test.
So here, below, I'm including an email letter that I've now written to a Tor Browser support email address where I had been corresoponding previously. The "Tor-Firefox" web browser is the PORTABLE Firefox ESR web browser that I've been referring to. This is what I wrote, which pretty much sums up everything I've tried and been unsuccessful with so far...
Hello Tor Browser help staff,
I've now tried everything and I cannot get ANY Flash content to play in this Tor-Firefox ESR web browser, even though I've tried installing the Flash player plugin that this browser asks for when I'm on a YouTube page (and even though this computer already had a current Flash Player plugin installed previously).
Let me make it clear that privacy is not important to me right now during this quest to make the Flash Player plugin work with this Tor browser... I can reset any settings for maximum privacy later when I go back to that purpose for using Tor... right now, I'm just trying to make the Tor browser play Flash content.
So even though I've UNCHECKED the Torbutton>Preferences>Security Settings>Disable plugin during Tor usage box, and I installed a new Flash player plugin THROUGH this browser, and I even set it to allow all scripts because I thought maybe that was complicating things, IT STILL WILL NOT PLAY FLASH CONTENT OF ANY TYPE.
Now, this, explained below, could be part of the problem that I'd like to ask for your help or SOMEONE's help with there in your department...
If I go to the Tor Browser folder on my hard drive at C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins there are NO Flash plugin files that show up in that folder even after I install a new Flash Player plugin THROUGH this browser... I believe that is why it will not play Flash content.
All it does when I install a Flash Player plugin through this Tor browser is to overwrite my Windows 7 system Flash Player plugin, but it does not actually place any Flash Player plugin files in the C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins folder, so that's why this PORTABLE version of the Firefox ESR browser will not play any Flash content... and it doesn't work from the Windows system Flash Player plugin the way that my normal Firefox (NON-TOR) web browser does. My other Firefox web browser sees the the Windows system Flash Player plugin just fine and it does play Flash content correctly.
There is, however, one text file that comes stock inside the Tor browser plugins folder and when it is opened it says, "Place Firefox plugins in this directory (Flash, Shockwave, etc)".
So with some advice from someone on the Adobe help forum, I tried copying the Flash Player plugin files from the Windows system folder at C:>Windows>System32>Macromed>Flash in to the Tor browser plugins folder at C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins, and that still didn't work.
Note that I am closing and re-opening the Tor browser between each of these tests.
So I then followed some further advice from the expert on the Adobe help forum and I changed the name of the main Flash Player plugin file that I had copied and pasted in to the Tor browser plugins folder from "NPSWF32_11_4_402_278.dll" to "NPSWF32.dll", and that still did not work... note that I left all the other files that I copied and pasted from the Windows system Flash plugins folder with the same name they originally had... I tried only changing that one Flash plugin file name, as instructed by the expert on the Adobe help forum.
I also tried posting a question about this on the Mozilla Firefox forum, but no one there is able to answer this question.
What the problem seems to be is that when this Tor-Firefox ESR 10.0.7 browser installs a Flash Player plugin, it just installs it to the Windows system folder (the same way that the normal (non-Tor) Firefox browser does) and NOT into the Tor-Firefox plugins folder C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins, as would be needed for it to be able to play Flash content.
No matter what I do, whenever I try to view a YouTube video or any Flash video in this browser, or any Flash graphic content at all, I get the yellow bar at the top of the page that says "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page - Install Missing Plugins" and there is a banner displayed where the Flash content is supposed to be that says, "The Adobe Flash Player is required for video playback - Get the latest Flash Player".
And as I explained at the top of this email, I have already installed and re-installed the Flash Player plugin on this computer multiple times, including doing it directly through this Tor-Firefox ESR browser itself.
So can ANYONE there tell me how to get the correct Flash Player plugin files in to the Tor-Firefox browser plugins folder at C:>Tor Browser>FirefoxPortable>Data>plugins, and where do I get those files? Everything I've tried, which is pretty extensive, has not worked, and it seems that someone there should know about this.
Thanks for your help.

39L4333DG - cannot display Flash content in web browser

Hello,
When I try to access Flash sites the web browser shows 'Missing plugin' in the frame where flash player should display the content.
Am I omitting anything?
I have installed the latest firmware: 7.1.90.34.01.1.
For a 2013 TV it is annoying not to have a full featured web browser on a SMART TV.
Is there any chance to have a full web browser in the next firmware version?
Thank you.

When I had similar problems the response from Toshiba was that the browser is only intended for limited use. My problem was not being able to access any site which required a password. Not rocket science you would think!

2 Desired Improvements for the Flash Player 'about' web page

Hi all ...   I'm finally writing to request two improvements to this web page:
     http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
As a geek, I have long been annoyed that this web page does not keep its Flash object and does not show the Flash Player plugin version number in the same format as used in the detailed list of latest Flash Player versions for various web browers and operating systems.
This web page is mainly a tool for techs. It can be improved greatly with these two changes (which I'm requesting on May 29, 2013):
1) Near the top of the page, KEEP the flash animation object --
do NOT replace it with an advertisement in a few seconds.
     Keeping the Flash object there allows a knowledgeable user
to right-click on the object to see the Flash plugin version, which
is a way to confirm that the web page's displayed Flash Player
version is correct.
    Currently, the Flash object is replaced within a few seconds
with an advertisement for some other Adobe product. This is
MOST ANNOYING. As a tech, I'm specifically going to this web
page to (a) see that the Flash Player plugin I just installed is
working and/or (b) see what exact version it is.
    Again:   Keep the Flash object in place -- drop the code that
replaces that object with an advertisement.
2) The displayed Flash Player version is formatted with commas,
as in
                You have version
                11,7,700,202 installed
while ALL of the versions in the table below are formatted
(properly) with dots, as in
                Player version
                11.7.700.202
    Make it easier for us mere humans to compare these version
numbers ... rework the HTML code to replace the commas with
dots. (It's not rocket science.)
Thank you.

Thanks, Chris.    That other web page does serve my needs better. I've created a web link to it on my flash drive where I keep the latest Flash plugins for IE and non-IE web browsers.
I still feel that the "About" web page needs the two changes I suggested.
Thanks also for pointing out that the box displaying the version of the installed Flash plugin is actually a Flash .SWF object .... since it is currently static (meaning, it has no animation whatsoever), I had no clue it was a Flash object.
So, I add a 3rd request:   have that version-display SWF object redone, to have a simple animation added and to have its code to display version revised to use periods (dots) in the version numbers. If that object currently is intended and used in some other Adobe (European?) we page, create a new object for the English "About" page.   Or to re-use code, use the version-display object from the page at
      http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
on the "About" page as well.
Again, as a techie pressed for time, I want a web page where I see the current version of the installed plugins and the versions of the latest releases, in the same formatting,
along with an animated flash object to prove that the Flash plugin in that web browser is working.
I do not accept that the mostly-technical Flash "About" page needs to have marketing materials (an ad).   People go to the About page specifically to see the Flash version info and to prove that Flash is working.
Thanks again .... - Ray

Safari tells me I have flash version 0, and it's just not true

I have a website (that someone else created for me. I know nothing of web design)It was created in flash v5. Until very recently I have had no problem viewing it on this computer using Safari, or any other browser for that matter.
Now, when I try to open the site, I get a prompt that states:
'You are using flash version 0
This website is optimized to run on Flash version 5 or above
Click here to download flash v 6'
I show that I have flash v9 installed. And, I am able to view my web site on other computers.
Any ideas as to what the problem may be?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi,
I get the same error message using Firefox on Linux. As Klaus says below, the website needs to correct their site to work across different platforms.

Adobe Flash Islands for Web Dynpro ABAP Data Binding problem

I have downloaded the NetWeaver 7.1 Trial (includes Adobe Flash Islands for Web Dynpro ABAP). I try to create a very simple FlashIslands component running within the Web Dynpro Application, everything looks good. However, all binding to the Flex component is not working. Does anyone know why?
Since it's trial version, I login as BCUSER into NSP system. When I load up the build-in sample, such as Chart Demo, the binding to Flex seems working. I suspect if it has anything to do with package? I could only create my Web Dynpro under the $TMP package, as all the build-in sample are defined in SWDP_DEMO.
Please help.

Hi I have recentrly bought IPAD AIR , is there any flash version supporting this model or is there any alternative for flash siles to open ?

Hi,
I have recently bought IPAD AIR , is there any flash version supporting this model or is there any alternative for flash sites to open ?

iPad do not support Flash
However Skyfire, Photon, iSwifter, Browse2Go and Puffin Web Browser will provide limited Flash capability

Ipad 3 supports FLASH/FLEX Apps, web or not

ipad 3 supports FLASH/FLEX Apps, web or not?

Apps, yes. Embedded in a web-page, no.
Specifically, a FLEX application bundled as an iOS app and sold through the App Store or distributed ad hoc using an enterprise license will work just fine.
Embedded FLASH (e.g., in a web-page) requires that the browser have a Flash plug-in. iOS doesn't support browser plug-ins, and Adobe dropped development and support for mobile versions of Flash (iOS and Android) a year ago (and laid off the staff related to it), so there will never be one. For what it's worth, Adobe has made it clear that it's also going to drop support for desktop browser plugins as well in the near future (in part because of the wider array of browsers requiring support, and also because Microsoft is dropping browser plugin support from their Windows 8 Metro browser and from their Windows RT browsers).
Going forward, Adobe presumes everyone will stick with HTML5+JavaScript in browsers and a FLEX will be used for standalone application development. They are already modifying their products to reflect this change.

Current Supported Flash Versions?

Hi All,
Can I have any link on Adobe's website stating the current supported version of flash player?
As per : http://www.adobe.com/in/support/programs/policies/supported.html , only 10.x is currently supported. Please help!
Thanks,
Joerge

Go to bug report for Flash on the Adobe web site for the windows operating system you are interested in. On that sie you will find a pulldown for the version of Flash you are reporting on that lists all the Flash versions, the most recent one first. If you mean supported, I suspect it would only be the two or three most recent versions.
You can do the same thing for the Mac bug report.

Flash version problems when using Extension Manager

I am deaf so I wanted to try the extension at
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&loc=en_us&extid=1182 518
in case any web sites I visit happen to have provided captioning.
When I try to install the extension with Extension Manager CS5, it halts with a message saying that I need Flash version 8 or higher. Downgrading from Flash version 10.1 to 9.x did not help. Further downgrading to version 8.42 did not help either. Yes, I did uninstall Flash each time before installing the next version.
I spent some time trying to find help in "Adobe Community Help", but that program is useless because the font is so tiny and it does not provide a way for the user to select a usable font size. Reducing my display resolution enough to make "Adobe Community Help" readable renders everything else useless because menus, buttons, fonts, dialog boxes, etc are now so freaking huge.

I do not have the "Creative Suite" in any version. I thought I was trying to install an extension for viewing content - I have no interest in creating anything.
I went back to the link I posted and it still makes me think it is an extension for displaying captions and that there is a different extension for creating them.
If it really is not an extension to allow end-users to read captions, then I've been wasting both of ours times. I'll just go back to nagging web sites - news sites in particular - to stop using Flash and switch to proper video formats that allows captioning for deaf users.

Problems with the new flash version.

Turned on my computer (win 7, ff5) and found that both skype and youtube are crippled.
After some digging, it becomes clear that there has been a new flash version and im far from the only one with problems. I try to use the uninstaller - which works suspiciously quickly- and reinstall. I get a message saying that its already installed. When i try through firefox direct, it says an existing version may be in use.
So either the uninstaller or the installer is broken.
When on youtube for example, it alternates between telling me i need to update the plugin and to download from adobe. I have now done this several times, following the instructions. No suscess.
Have tried to change the hardware accelleration off, but as i cant see anything thats flash.... its not going well.

Is your Win7 32-bit or 64-bit?
What files do you have in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash (32-bit) / C:\Windows\syswow64\Macromed\Flash (64-bit) ?

Q:- Migrating version 6 Web Analysis reports directly to version 11 ??

Trying to migrate version 6 Web Analysis reports directly to version 11.1.1.2 without first migrating to version 9, because of some time constraints.
Overall it works fine, except for some issue with PV (Personal Variables) in those reports.
The PVs are present in the version 6 xml export file, but somehow not being picked up in version 11.1.1.2 Web Analysis import.
Has anyone tried to migrate version 6 Web Analysis reports to version 11.1.1.2 and faced this kind of issue?
I am wondering if there is any change in the xml tags because of which the migration from 6 to 11 is not working.
Anyone has any thoughts or ideas to quickly migrate web Analysis reports from 6 to 11. There are hundreds of reports that need to be migrated.
- Nasar

Hi,
Welcome to Forums...!
I think we need to change the database connection details in the Web analysis.
goto file --> Edit --> browse the database connection then change the server name in the connection details.
may be this will help to resolve your issue.
Thanks,
mady
