If Facebook games say you need to install flash player but my phone service says it can't download f

My Facebook games say that I need to install flash player in order to play the games, but my windows phone says it doesn't support flash player

You need to check with Window to see what alternative they have for Windows phone to use in place of Flash Player.

A facebook game (ZumaBlitz) That I have been playing for years is causing me to be prompted to download and install flash player, when I do it still doesn't work.

Why has Zuma Blitz and other games stopped working? I have downloaded and installed flash player but it still doesn't work.

IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use.
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 = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

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.

Cannot install flash player partially uninstalled

Dear community members,
I successfully installed Flash Player back in April. It was working well until a couple of weeks ago, when video clips wouldn't work sometimes, but did with a bit of coaxing. The sites affected were - Facebook, Iview (TV), Youtube,and my bank's website. The same applied when playing games. The situation has now degraded to the extent that I cannot access any of the sites listed, and get video/voice.
I downloaded the instructions to uninstall, and downloaded the .exe file and ran it (no problems). However, the instructions said to delete files in the system32\Macromed\flash directory, but when I tried to I was told I didn't have the right privileges. I have administrator rights. How higher can one Go?
I tried to install again, only to be told that Flash Player is already installed. How do I fix Flash Player, when I cannot uninstall or install it? Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Regards,
Gazza

You have Shockwave Flash 10.1 r82 installed already.

Can any one tell me how to install flash player on powerbookg4.i actully uninstall it to upgrade it but now i can not install new one.it always says get flash player for powerpc when i try to install it after downloading.it is 10.5.8 version

Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

My MySpace Band Player won't load after installing Flash Player 10

Not so long ago, MySpace required members to update to Flash Player 10.
I installed Flash Player 10.0.32.18 on my Mac (OS 10.4.11). Adobe.com tells me it's installed correctly, and working fine.
But ever since then, I haven't been able to play music on my band page or on anyone else's. Flash seems to work everywhere else on the web for me. But not on MySpace. There's just an empty space where my player used to be. No music (only the thunderous sound of subscribers stampeding out of MySpace and over to Facebook).
Someone suggested I go to Adobe's Flash Player Settings Manager and select the box for "Allow third party Flash content to store data on your computer." But no matter which browser I use, I cannot get an X into that box. And even if I could, I don't know that this would make my music player visible and functional on MySpace.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance...

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
#Open Firefox ''Options'' window (''Preferences'' on Mac or Linux) as follows:
#* In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Options'' for Windows or ''Preferences'' on Mac or Linux.
#* In Firefox 28.0 and previous versions, click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
#In the Firefox Options (or Preferences) window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
#In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
#Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Why do I keep getting a notice to install Flash Player. I have done it 3 times now.

Why do I keep getting notifications to install Flash Player. I have installed it 3 times now.

You are getting notifications to install Flash Player due to the fact that it is out of date. Unfortunately, Adobe has discontinued Flash Player since version 10.1 for PowerPC Macs. However that will not stop you from taking advantage of Flash on Facebook and other sites like YouTube.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3599648
Follow that link down to the post by Texas Mac Man. Download the attached file and follow the instructions. You will then be able to use Facebook and YouTube fully. It is still Flash 10.1 but it will show to your Mac as 11.
I hope this will be able to help you.

I get an error message when trying to install Flash Player.
I use Windows 64 bit with Internet Explorer 64x.
I'm able to download, the installation starts but it stops before completing.
I get this error message (loosely transalated) :

How can I fix this ?

I solved my problem by installing the Flash Player from home.
The network security at work prevented me from completing installation.
Thanks for your help.

"Why can't I install Flash Player on my Tablet?" (Kindle or Samsung Galaxy)

Your tablet (Kindle or Galaxy) uses the Android Operating System.
Adobe stopped ALL development of Flash for Android last year. (July 2012) That includes Kindle as well as Samsung Tablets. Additionally, Samsung and Amazon have ended support for Flash in ALL of their newest tablet models.
The following is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):
"Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."
And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):
"The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.
If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.
If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:
Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.
The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.
Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:
Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."
See: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.
See also: "How do I manually install Flash Player on my Android device?"
You can find info about "Dolphin" for Android at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser It seems to be the browser of choice to play Flash content on an Android device.
Also, check the Android forums to see what their "gurus" recommend.

Hello,
Flash Player is not supported on mobile devices, and has never been supported on Windows phone. I am not aware of alternative option for Windows phone users.
