How to get websites to work that need flash player

J

You can try one of the app/service combinations for playing Flash such as VirtualChrome (the only one that says it also supports Java), Skyfire , Puffin, or iSwifter. One of those might work for you, though they all have limitations and do not work with all sites and services

  • Websites tell me I need Flash Player, but it's installed

    When I go to a website that needs Flash Player, the site states "this site requires Flash Player 10 or higher" or "you must download Flash Player to use this feature", etc. so I have tried to uninstall and reinstall Flash Player with no luck.  I'm running Windows XP Professional, IE 7.0, 32 bit.  I keep trying and trying to uninstall FP but it still shows ver 10.0.32.18 installed, yet the websites still keep telling me it's not installed.  H E L P please!

    Hi, Since you are using XP, have you Installed the Service Pack 3?
    Also the version of Flash Player that you mentioned is very very old. Evidently when you Uninstalled that didn't get removed for some reason. I would try the Manual Uninstall/Install method.
    Download the Uninstaller and SAVE it to your Desktop:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Then download and SAVE the Installer for IE to your Desktop:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html  Use the EXE Installer for IE
    Use the Administrator Account.
    Close all browser windows, and disable any instant messenger services in the system tray such as msn or yahoo, etc.
    Disable any Anti-Virus programs until after the Install is complete
    Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot.
    Check and make sure the Anti-Virus is still Disabled.
    Run the Installer and when finished, Reboot.
    Enable what you Disabled and test your browser here:  http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    You may want to print out these instructions to make it easier.
    Thanks,

  • How can I view a video that requires flash player ?

    How can I view a video that requires flash player ?

    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.

  • Disc that needs flash player won't work

    I have a disc that goes with my textbook for class that
    requires the use of the flash player. I bought a new computer for
    school that has Windows Vista. I installed the flash player 9, but
    the disc still won't play. The flash player works for sites on the
    internet, but not for the disc. I tried it on an older computer
    that had flash player 7 and it worked fine. But, I heard the Flash
    Player 7 won't work with Vista. Is there anything that I can do
    about this. Buying a computer was a waste of money if I can't use
    it for school - which is why I bought it.

    Hi Andy, that is correct, they don't support PPC Macs anymore.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,
    Download this if you haven't...
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp10.1.102.6 4_and_9.0.289.0archive.zip
    Once downloaded if it doesn't unzip automatically the double click on that file.
    Look for the fp10.1.102.64_and_9.0.289.0archive folder, open it, look for the Flash Player 10.1.102.64 folder & open and look for 101r10264 folder & open it, double click on the flashplayer101r102_64_ubmac.dmg file, choose the Install Adobe Flash Player file to install... they don't make it easy!

  • How can I use a website that need Flash Player on my iPad 3?

    I am trying to use tickets now website.
    It says I need to have Adobe flash player to make the site work correctly.
    Since my ipad will not support Flash, Is there any alternative?
    Thanks

    Sorry, no. Adobe has not released a version of Flash for mobile in quite some time. They announced they were dropping Flash on mobile platforms November 9, 2011 and it was officially removed from the Google Play Store August 15, 2012.  It's simply lucky that the last version released still happens to work with Jelly Bean.
    Keep in mind that the fact that it works does not mean you should use it. I think it's still preferable to find native apps or mobile-friendly sites using HTML5. Since it is unsupported, there have not been for some time, and never will be any security patches. In short, use it at your own risk.

  • Keep getting message from sites that Adobe Flash Player needs to be installed

    I have a MacBook, OSX 10.7.5.  When I try to download a document, I am told that I need Adobe Flash Player and that I should download it.
    When I look on the Adobe website, to check something, I see that the newest version of Flash Player is installed on my computer.  As a second choice, I was given, I could download Adobe Air, but that didn't work either.
    I have no idea what I need to do to be able to get this information downloaded.
    I'm not sure if this is the correct community of whom to ask this question.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I'm a newbie that needs flash player help.

    So I have a macbook pro, the 2.8ghz version. I am pretty new to the mac operating system however, I have a serious concern. Whenever I use my flash player like on youtube or netflix, my fans start going really fast and loud and my computer gets VERY hot. I know this is not normal, when I checked the activity monitor during a heat up it said the Cpu % for the flash player was at about 150! Please help, in simple terms tell me what i need to do to fix or manage the situation.

    The only fix is to stop watching Flash videos and uninstalling Flash. Since I know you won't do that then what you can try is installing the current version of Flash - Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235.

  • I have a sony super steady shot digital camera that needs flash player

    I downloaded the software for the camera and I can remove the pictures from the camera but everytime I start the program I get a message stating I have to install Macromedia flash player. I have Adobe 10 flash player installed what's wrong? If somebody can help I'd be much obliged.

    When you see a beachball cursor or the slowness is especially bad, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

  • Videos that require flash player constantly restart and freeze

    Running Windows 7 and have tried multiple browers and versions of Adobe Flash Player (all set back to the latest versions as of right now), and have updated my video drivers, but no matter what if I go on any website like YouTube that uses Flash Player, I can watch a video for a couple minutes and then Flash Player will freeze and reboot the video to the beginning. Closing out the window doesn't help, refreshing the page doesn't help either, it will still just let me watch for a few minutes and then freeze and restart. Very frusterated here, any idea what the problem is??

    -Using 64 bit version and I've tried literally every available copy of Flash Player located in the archives. It only started doing this I'd say about a month ago maybe.
    -Not sure which parts of the dxdiag report you need but this is the overall system info:
    Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.130318-1533)
               Language: English (Regional Setting: English)
    System Manufacturer: TOSHIBA
           System Model: Satellite L555D
                   BIOS: Ver 1.00PARTTBL
              Processor: AMD Turion(tm) II Dual-Core Mobile M520 (2 CPUs), ~2.3GHz
                 Memory: 4096MB RAM
    Available OS Memory: 3838MB RAM
              Page File: 2363MB used, 5311MB available

        DWM DPI Scaling: Disabled
         DxDiag Version: 6.01.7601.17514 32bit Unicode
    -The only difference I saw was that non-HTML loaded significantly faster. It usually takes a minimum of 3 min though before I might have restart trouble.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

    Hi juderocks14,
    Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
    If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
    Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
    Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
    Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows  Media Player:
    Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
    More reference:
    What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?
    Best regards

  • Suddenly the apps I downloaded won't work. The screen "blinks" for a second as if the app is loading, and then returns to the home screen. All the apps that came with the iPod seem to be working fine. How to get them all working again?

    Suddenly the apps I downloaded won't work. The screen "blinks" for a second as if the app is loading, and then returns to the home screen. All the apps that came with the iPod seem to be working fine. How to get them all working again?

    First try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, try downloading another free app from the App Store.
