How do I install Flash Player on Windows 8?

If you are using Windows 8, Flash Player is now embedded into the operating system for Internet Explorer so there is no need to manually install.  Updates will automatically be made available through the built in Windows Update system.

If you encounter difficulties, please see our Windows Installation help pages
Help for Flash Player issues on Windows 8.x
Help for Flash Player Installation on Windows
For browsers other than Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, Flash Player can be downloaded and installed from get.adobe.com/flashplayer

When using the Metro version of Internet Explorer, not all Flash content will appear.  This can be corrected by switching to the desktop version using these simple steps.

1. Hit the Windows + Z key or right click anywhere in the browser to bring up the IE controls and then click the tools button
2. In the menu that appears, select "View on the desktop"
Internet Explorer will relaunch in desktop mode and all Flash content should appear.

    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.

  • How do I install flash player from the home screen?

    I am operating Mac OSX.  I have flash player version 16.0.0.  I can't play any videos because my flash player is out of date.  I download the latest flash player and when I go to install it, it takes me here www.adobe.com.  There is no "Install flash player" prompt like there used to be.  There is a "Download Creative Cloud" prompt for a fee.  I go to the menu and there is no install flash player prompt.  I go to Adobe Flash Player in the lower right hand corner and it prompts me to download the flash player again but not to install it and then I end up right back to the Adobe home screen again where there is no install flash player prompt.  I search "install flash player" and it takes me to a prompt to download the flash player again which of course brings me back to the home screen where again, there is no install now prompt.  I've been at this for days, extremely frustrated.  How do I install flash player?

    Hi Alicia,
    If the browser is opening when you attempt to mount the DMG image, then somehow, the browser has been set as the default program to open DMG files.  You'll need to change this association for the DiskImageMounter.app file to be the default program to open the DMG file.  Please do the following:
    Select the installer DMG file and CTRL-click on the DMG file.If DiskImageMounter.app is available, select that and skip to step 4 below
    From the menu, select Open With > and then select Other...to open Finder
    In Finder, navigate to /System/Library/CoreServices, look for DiskImageMounter.app and select it
    At the bottom center of the Finder window, put a check in the box next to Always Open With
    Click Open in the bottom right of the Finder window
    This will mount the DMG file revealing the installer app.
    Double-click the installer app (Install Adobe Flash Player.app) to launch the installer dialog window.
    Follow prompts to install Flash Player

    Hello,
    Flash Player is no longer supported on Android, however, you can install it manually on your own, or use a different browser in your Android device.
    Some helpful links:

    Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by clicking one of the following links.

    Bypass the downloader/installer altogether.

  • Cannot install Flash Player in Windows 8.1

    Tried to install Flash Player in Windows 8.1 (32 bit).  Used all the instructions; i.e, disable saftey, enable scripting, etc. An install box says Update KB2934802 is already installed.  Searched computer for KB.....02 and Flash Player.  Says none exist.  Any suggestions?

    Ever since Windows 8, Flash Player for Internet Explorer is written by Adobe ONLY. It's embedded by Microsoft, and you cannot:
    - Update it
    - Download it
    - Install it
    - Reinstall it
    from here. You MUST update Flash Player ActiveX (for Internet Explorer) through Windows update. But... Using Windows 8.1 means you were forced to update to IE11, which has it's own problems and they can be summed up in three words...
    "User-Agent Strings"
    That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
    Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
    The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
    Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess thay've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
    They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
    The REAL solution, like the original problem can also be summed up in three words:
    "Use 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.

    How can i install Flash Player in my iphone 4?

    This won't be possible.  Due to restrictions from Apple, plug-ins are not allowed in Safari on iOS.  Instead, all  flash based applications that choose to do so are distributed via the app store using Adobe AIR.  From an end users perspective, you won't know if you are using a native or flash based app.
