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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Need flash player help

    I tried to update my flash movie, www.lesvants.com but I did

    Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

    Hi.
    I don´t know what method have you used for insert your
    flash but appears to
    be wrong. If you look in your code you will see, in the head,
    a call to the
    "AC_RunActiveContent.js" but the code of you flash dont have
    nothing about
    this script.
    Change the code of your flash:

  • 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.

    i have a HP laptop, when i try to do certain things that require flash player it tells me i need to install the latest version so when i try it says its already installed. i have tried all the trouble shooting suggestions and it stll isnt working. I even checked the activex filtering and that doesn't seem to be the problem.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • Please help us, after we installing the flash player is said that the plug-in version is not installed and i need Flash Player for my windows 7 Professional 64-bit Japanese version and Internet explorer 10

    Hello,
    There are two versions of Flash Player for Windows:  ActiveX for Internet Explorer and Plug-in for non-IE browsers. It appear you may have installed the one for non-IE browsers.  Please use the links below to download and install:
    Flash Player ActiveX (Internet Explorer

  • Why do I repeatedly, but not always, see box saying that I need Flash Player so click here?

    I use Facebook a lot. I watched a video earlier that someone had posted and all went well. So a little later, when I wanted to show it to my daughter, once again this darn box popped up which since I can't resolve it as my Windows 8.1 apparently comes stock with Flash Player so clicking for a new installation does NOTHING internally.
    The Adobe site ran it's check and I saw that little floating cloud that verified that I have Flash Player installed and that it works and is Enabled. I've also researched this NUMEROUS times and found that it's easy to just click the gear in top-right on my IE-11 and Manage Add-Ons then make sure it is Enabled, which it always has been.

    I'm back! Actually, this issue has been happening to me every now & then but I'd just given up on dealing with it. But now I'm motivated again.
    I clicked on a video link in Facebook that sent me to NASCAR | Facebook which turns from the https URL to those two words on this site for some odd reason, and it just popped a box telling me saying Flash Player Upgrade Required - Get Flash Player and the video's image never displayed under that and it couldn't be played.
    Then once again I went thru all of the steps to insure that both I do actually have Flash Player and that it is Enabled. I do and it is. I also read somewhere to click the gear icon in IE then click Safety > ActiveX Filtering. I do that and I see a checkmark next to ActiveX Filtering. I've tried it both with a checkmark and without one and there's no difference.
    I have Windows 8.1 fully updated, IE-11 and Flash Player
    I see the swinging tire swing image in #5. Verify if Flash Player is installed at Flash Player Help.

  • Need flash player 8 and java script enabled to play videos on ipad, need help please.

    need flash player 8 and java script enabled on my ipad in order to view videos.  please help.

    iPads do not directly support Flash.
    You can look for Flash Browsers in the App store for some options to try. Support is not 100%, but maybe one may work for you.  Browsers like Puffin, Skyfire, Photon etc...
    IPads do fully support JavaScript.  Just make sure its turned on under Settings->Safari->Advanced->JavaScript.
    If you require Java, which is completely different to JavaScript, again there are some browsers in the App store that support it.  Search for "Java browsers" in the store.

  • 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
            Windows Dir: C:\windows
        DirectX Version: DirectX 11
    DX Setup Parameters: Not found

    System DPI Setting: 96 DPI (100 percent)
        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 need flash player for iPad 2 what's available out there?

    I need flash player for iPad 2, what's currently out there ?

    Flash is not supported on the iPad - and as Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and 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, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
    If you do a search on this forum you will find hundreds of other threads on the subject.

  • What do you use if you need flash player for something?

    What do you use if you need flash player for something?
