I am unable to view videos, "you need to install Adobe Flash"

I downloaded the "Download the free Flash Player Now!" and the videos still aren't viewable, I have rebooted the computer, and it stays the same. It is Windows 7 Professional, if that matters... I need to fix this soon. Thanks,
Shockwave flash object is enabled

As you've figured out, this is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The 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.

Hi, I need to install Adobe Flash Player because the version I have installed in my Mac Os is old, but I can´t because I need to write my email and my password and I don´t remember my password, so what can I do?

I need To install Adobe Flash Player 9 for my iPad 2

I need To install Adobe Flash Player 9 for my iPad 2 or some thing like the flash player

Not as most people think of Flash on an iOS device, no. The new version of Flash Media Server just provides a single server platform for streaming video both in Flash and HTML5 content formats. It won't work for Flash apps which is what most people want. And it's not something the user can install for connecting to Flash content;the provider has to implement it.
It may, however, speed up the availability of content in HTML5 format since the provider doesn't have to run separate servers. And just FYI, it's not new. This version of Flash Media Server was released back in September.
Regards.

I have a new mini ipad and need to install Adobe Flash Player on it in order to use certain items on the internet. Can Adobe Flash Player be installed an used on my ipad??

I have my first ipad. It is the mini version. I'm trying to go to certain sites on the internet that tell me I need to update or install Adobe Flash Player. When I try to down load Adobe Flash Player I get a message saying "this device does not support Adobe Flash Player". Can I not use Adobe Flash Player on my ipad like I do on my computers and my iphone???

You can't install flash player on your iPad, nor on your iPhone - it's not supported on iOS devices, and as Adobe have stopped 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. Also some websites have their own apps in the App Store.

i need to install adobe in my macbook os x 10.5.8

Hi Simone,
Flash Player is no longer supported on OS X 10.5.8. The last version supported is 10.3.183.90. It is available for download at Archived Flash Player versions. But this has not been updated with recent security fixes and most sites will require a newer version of Flash Player. If your system is capable, I recommend upgrading to OS X 10.6 and then you can install the latest version (FP 17). Searching the internet for "upgrade OS X 10.5.8 to 10.6" will return many results on this.
Olá Simone,
Flash Player não é mais suportado no Mac OS X 10.5.8. A última versão suportada é 10.3.183.90. Está disponível para download em Archived Flash Player versions. Mas isto não foi atualizado com as últimas correções de segurança, e a maioria dos sites exigirá uma versão mais recente do Flash Player. Se seu sistema é capaz, eu recomendo atualizar para o OS X 10.6 e então você pode instalar a versão mais recente (FP. 17). Pesquisando na internet para "atualização do Mac OS X 10.5.8 para 10.6" irá retornar muitos resultados sobre isso.

Hey reslosson,
The article linked below provides more information about the blocked plug-in alert that you are seeing and will walk you through the process of changing the security settings in Safari.

Would you recommend I install adobe flash on my mini?

I would like to have adobe flash player on my mini but don't want the hassle of getting a million virus' that I had on my PC's...would you recommend it? Just realized that one of the websites that has employment videos uses adobe exclusively. Just want to know the pro's and con's...
Thanks in advance.

Adobe Flash in and of itself is not really problematic with viruses.
(doesn't mean that Flash itself works real well). The big issue as of
late are malware sites that put up an Adobe Flash update window
hoping people will click on it and install some nasty software. Most
of these exploits were Java based. But there can still be others
that tell you you need to click the update and then download the "installer".
Then people unwittingly run that installer, again infecting the machine.
In general with Macs, if some site says you need to download
something you didn't ask for, don't do it. If it says you need an
update, go to the vendor site for that app/plugin to see if you really
do.

I need to install Adobe Flash Player but there is no RUN to click on to download to the Programs Folder. Only Save and Cancel.

On My web site the adobe flash player replaced with a white box "need to install adobe flash player and Java script" both installed. My web site fine using Internet Explorer and Chrome.

I've updated to Firefox ver 5.
Gordon

The FlashPlayer plugin used for Firefox is entirely separate from the one that Internet Explorer uses. You system details do not show Flash Player is installed.
With flash player installed and enabled if you go to the Adobe website it will check that FlashPlayer works, also you will be able to download and install from there if necessary. The site page also has links to troubleshooting information. http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Javascript is not the same as Java. Javascript, which is what you need enabled at present is a feature of the firefox browser that needs enabling in order for it to handle the javscript files.
* use '''Firefox button -> Options ->| Content| -> [] Enable Javascript'''
* see [[Javascript]]

My macbook pro still won't play youtube videos even after i installed adobe flash play. What do I do?

I don't know what to do now. Adobe flash player doesnt even open up in my dock. And on youtube the videos say " This video is currently unavailable.

Try Safari and Lion forums, then bookmark the actual MacBook Pro forum.
And maybe a url if you want it to be cecked. And try Chrome. Try Firefox. And make sure your plugins and extensiions work. Safari was updated and there were security updates. And only install from Adobe such as
http://getflash.com or www.adobe.com and downloads.

I need Help installing adobe Flash player please!

Hi,
So I have been stuck trying to download adobe flash player for quite a while because when I go onto youtube it says the flash is out of date. Here are all the different things I tried to get the download to work.
1)
First of all the adobe flash has been downloaded into my download folder. So when I click on it, the adobe installer pops up. I type in my password. Then the little screen appears to start downloading. However it abruptly stops; the window says "Installation encountered errors" "Error has been encountered. Close this window and try downloading again"
2)I find out I have to quit the safari application when downloading the adobe flash. So I quit safari and try downloading the Adobe flash. The Installation error pops up again. So I guess that must not be the problem.
My current flash version is 15.0.0
3) I check to make sure that the flash player is enabled by my Safari browser. I did notice that the help page is slightly different from my own computer.
I don't have the "Allow Java" plug in, and I don't know if thats something I need to install?
What else do I need to do to download the flash player
Thanks in advance

What kind of phone?

I need help installing adobe flash player 10.2.

Web sites tell me I need to upgrade/install a flash player, but when I do try to install adobe 10.2, it was giving me failed error message. I tried temporarily disabling my Nortons anti virus and firewall. I also unclicked so Adobe would not include Mcafee, which I don't want. I uninstalled all older versions of adobe( except Reader.) I am on Compaq laptop, OS is Windows Vista 32 bit. Can anyone talk me through this endless loop??

Hello,
Please try the following way:
1.Open "Start", then in the "Start Search" bar input "regedit", then click "Enter"
2.In the opened "Registry Editor", find the key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Macromedia -> FlashPlayer -> SafeVersions" and delete it.
3.Download the latest Flash Player from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/, and install it.
Thanks
