FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally.
If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
Try resetting Network Settings
Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.

Downloaded Flash Player several times and still doesn't work

A week or so ago I got a virus on my computer. I used Malware Bytes to remove it, and I also have
AVG. I run both of these daily, along with the updates, so maybe they're affecting my ability to use Flash. Ever since the virus, my computer keeps telling me I don't have Flash and that I need to download it. I've downloaded it many times now, but it still appears that I don't have it. I check in Internet Explorer Tools and Addons, and it doesn't even seem to show up in there. I'm using Windows 7. I even tried un-installing and re-installing. If I use Firefox, Flash works, but I prefer to use IE. Any help?
Thanks!

Hi, Sorry for the delay. Downloading that zipfile to your Desktop is only needed if you found that the Kill-bit was set. Following is part of the first message at the Kill-bit site that Pat put up.
open the registry editor: Start | Run | type regedit.exe
navigate to this registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
if that key does not exist, then the "kill-bit" for Flash Player is not set
if it contains a DWORD entry with the name Compatibility Flags that has any value other than 0x00000000, then the "kill-bit" for Flash Player may be set
Following these instructions you are only "looking", you're not to do anything or change anything yet. You are just looking to see if that Registry Key is there. Like the Step 3 shows, if that Key is not there, then the Kill-bit is not set and you can just close that and you are done.
Do you think you can do that?All you are really doing by clicking on Start, then Run and entering "regedit.exe" in that space that opens up after you click on Run is regedit.exe (don't enter any quotation marks though) All this does is opens the Registry so you can look for that Key.
If that key is there, then let me know. The problem is that if that Kill-bit is set, then no matter what you do, you can't Install that Shockwave Flash Object, ActiveX Control for Flash Player.
Hope this helps explain it.
Thanks,

I have installed Flash Player 5 times. It keeps disappearing, or won't load when I'm running MSIE8.0

I am running Windows XP, MSIE 8.0. I have installed Flash Player 5 times. It keeps disappearing, or won't even install over Internet Explorer. It stops halfway, and tells me to close Internet Explorer because it can't install with it running. I did that yesterday, and it installed when I started IE again, so I thought the problem was solved. Then, today, I logged on and tried to use Flash Player. It was not installed. I re-installed it, and came to the same block. It will not install while Internet Explorer is running.

Download the correct 32-bit or 64-bit uninstaller and installer and exit I.E.8.

On Win 7 64 bit, Firefox 7, 8 and Nightly all refuse to see Flash. I have uninstalled, installed Flash 11 several times and FF just doesn't see Flash. Anyone got a fix?

On Win 7 64 bit, Firefox 7, 8 and Nightly all refuse to see Flash. I have uninstalled, installed Flash 11 several times.

There are two different versions of Flash, the '''''ActiveX''''' version for IE and the '''Plugin''' version used by most other browsers.
1.Download the Flash Plugin version setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

I've tried installing the latest Adobe Flash Player several times, but it does not seem to work. Any suggestions?

One of the websites I use gives me this message:
Alternate HTML content should be placed here. This content requires the Adobe Flash Player. Get Flash
I have tried installing the Flash player several times, but I keep having this same problem.

Can't see your Installed Plugins under More system details...
Did you install the correct version of Flash? 
IE uses a different version of Flash - ActiveX - than other browsers need - the Plugin version.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

Its an issue with IE. Try a different browser like chrome or firefox, it should work.
Run the Flash Player uninstaller as applicable for your machine(i.e. 32 bit or 64 bit) and remove flash player
Restart the machine.
Download and Re-install Flash Player.
Restart the browser and check.
Enjoy!

Flash Player 10.3.183.10 will not work in Safari on Mac OS X 10.5.8

Safari 5.0.6
Flash Player 10.3.183.10
Flash Player10.3.183.10 will not work in Safari on Mac OS x 10.5.8
The instillation says that it is successful, however when using Safari I'm informed I do not have flash player installed. When I check the hard drive, flash player in no where to be found. I have tried all of the troubleshooting from the Adobe website, and I am still stumped. I was able to get the Flash Player to run in firefox 5.0, but not Safari.
Please Help!!!! I have searched the discussion boards for days now in my spare time and have not been able to find an answer.
I am not the most savvy person with computers, what am I missing here??

In my Library/Internet Plug-ins folder I have a file named Flash Player.plugin (it's 22.8 MB however, not 23.9mb) and another named flashplayer.xpt (it's 4 KB however, not856 bytes).
I am unable to open the Plug-Ins menu (the browser pops up but wont load)...is there another way to check for Shockwave Flash?? When I do a search for "Shockwave" on my hard drive I do find a plug-in named "DirectorShockwave.plugin" (76 KB)
Also...The "Open using Rosetta" checkbox was already unchecked

Fact Time and iMessage will not work on

Face Time will not verify my emails and phone number on my iMac. Face Time is working on my iPad 2 and iPhone 5. All were working fine up until 2 days ago. I tried to Face Time on my iMac and I had to login and verify. Verify would just spin, spin, spin. iMessage will not work on the iMac as well. Same thing, was working fine up until Face Time quit functioning. All devices have been working on the same router/Wi-Fi. My operating system is Mavericks. Have had no problems until now. HELP!

I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player several times, and there is a problem during installation. Several sites cannot be reached because of this. What's up? I have a Mini Mac 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10

I'm having a big problem with all of this. Don't you have a phone number?

I have really installed , uninstalled and reinstalled it severally. I have also gone on the help and support in adobe looking for help but nothing seems to be working for me. I need to have it up and running for me.

@ogksd - As Vikram mentioned checking for the shockwave addon is the first troubleshooting step that we recommend. Here are two FAQs that should help:
Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer
ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer
