IPhone 5 video requires Flash???

Recorded videos on iPhone 5 and posted on Facebook. Tried to play them back on iPad but can't because it says Flash Player is required. Browser is Safari. How can iPhone video require an unsupported plugin to play back on an iPad using an Apple browser?

Because FB adds them to their site using Flash to view them. Have you used the FB app to view them?

All videos requiring Flash crash

Hi, I have been having this problem the past few months where all videos requiring Flash crash. I use Chrome, but I have tried with IE and Firefox and the problem persists. On YouTube videos, for example, they freeze every minute or so and eventually turn green and crash. I have disabled hardware acceleration. I checked and have the most updated version of Flash for Chrome. My computer is pretty nice and is less than 1 year old, so it's really frustrating having serious issues like this already. Not being able to watch a simple video stinks! I have a pretty good anti-virus software and am pretty computer/internet-literate, so I don't think I have a virus. I also did the Flash troubleshooting tutorial, and this did not help.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Youtube video requiring Flash Player

Some of Youtube video requires Flash Player. I installed it successfully, but I still encounter the same error message. It appears that I have not installed ActiveX control. How do I install it. BTW, is the ActiveX control the issue here or somethingelse is going on?

Playing website videos requiring flash media player.

Websites such as cnn.com and foxnews.com as well as many others offer video clips for viewing, but they require use of a flash media player. Is it possible to play such clips on an IPhone and, if so, how?

No. iPhone does not support Flash.

All the videos require flash plug in - do i need it?

If a video says it requires flash, do I download it?

You can install a safari plug-in called click2flash. Its in html format, so when you play videos, you will be running html and not flash(which is a power hog), plus, it automatically plays the video in the highest resolution available for that video. Unfortunately, there's some videos or sites which has not yet switched to html, so you'll only be able to view via flash. I have click2flash and adobe flash player both installed, so by default, everything will be played by html, except those who really requires the flash player, which then will be played via the flash player

How can I watch videos requiring flash player?

I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 6.0.1.

Puffin is not great. It really depends on what you want to watch. I have watched figure skating performances with it, and was satisfied. I don't mind the slight jerkiness that sometimes happens. Google for browsers that provide flash. There are about 10 of them.

Still can't watch videos with flash

I am a firefox user. In some sites, the videos require flash and windows media. I have both installed . but, there are still some videos I can't view and when I ask the site to test what software is missing, it says that I do NOT have the flash installed...
Last time it did work, I enabled/disabled some plugins, and then it suddenly did work - I just don't rememeber what exactly I did ... and it doesn't seem to work now.
HELP!!! thanks.

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox 13 are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
[[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
[[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
[[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]

If you've already tried all this, I'd suggest the following:
Install Firefox 14.0.1.
Update your graphics driver and Windows. [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Then test again.

Facebook video issue (flash required?)

Are you using the Facebook App on both devices?

How do you watch videos that require flash on ipad2

how do you watch videos that require flash on ipad2

As flash isn't supported on the iPad (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/), you could try apps such as Skyfire which claim to support flash, though their review are mixed. A number of websites (especially news sites) have their own apps in the App Store, so you could check to see if your favourite site(s) have apps.

Can't watch video and play games that require flash player

I'm using windows7 family premium version
internet explorer 10 last version 10.0.5
exploitation system 64 bytes
flash player verson 11..700.202 the latest one
So as i say can't watch video and play games that require flash player, they keep asking me to install flashplayer... i did everything i read in the forums, unistall it, clean the memory, reinstall it, disabe active x etc... but still have the problem.
More specific about my problem is that: let's say that i'm trying to look at you tutorial video under thi forum Re: How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player? i'm just seeing a black screen. So I'm able to guess where is the play button so when i push on that place, i can hear the sound of that video. Second step guessing where is the enlarge button, and when the screen is enlarged, magic i can see and hear the video.... So you figure that it's impossible to use my computer like that and guess right all the time, so....
Second fact, it seems that bug happened after an update (windows or explorer) and i even talk with a microsott tech who was not able to resolve it... But if i'm undoning the update and go back to a prior image, i have no problems with flash player anymore... it' been moths that i'm delaying my updates cause i cannot find any solutions.... So Please please please, help me .... don't know what's the problem is and i'm not a pro, don't know what to do. (Excuse my english it's my second language)
Thank you

The first thing I'd try is updating your video driver.
Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
If you still have problems and since you're using Windows 7 x64, please check to see if you have the following Windows update installed:
KB2670838 – Platform Update for Windows 7 x64
If so, please uninstall it and try Flash Player out again.

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.

Browser tells me "Video Requires the lastest Flash Flash Player"

I have a Windows XP system (with all latest updates installed)
Adobe Flash Player website tells me: "You have version 10,3,183,7 installed"
I have and use these three Browsers:
- Firefox 6.0.2
- Internet Explorer 8.0.X.X
- Chrome 13.0.X.X
I've been using this HP Pavilion laptop for 4 years now, and all this time have not had any problems looking at Flash content. About a month ago, certain websites that use Flash will no longer work, regardless of which web broswer use. I say certain websites, because it seems most of them DO work, it's just a few that don't (that used to).
So for instance, I'm trying to access and watch video from the Logo website -- specifically full episodes of "RuPaul's Drag Race." When I navigate to and click on a specific episode to watch, instead of seeing the video appear (where it used to prior to this problem starting), I instead see a message that says: "Video Requires the Lastest Flash Player." Today I was at another website, and there were interactive parts of page I was looking at that just grayed-out and would not let me input info they were requestiong -- again in all thre browsers. I suspect (?) a Flash-related issue.
Although I know my way around a computer, I am not a techie, and don't know what to do to troubleshoot this level of problem.
Help! (please)
Aaron

Hi Chris. Thanks for the reply and help.
Yes, I do have several security things installed. Lets see, they are:
- Trend Micro Titaniaum Maximum Security 2011
- Lavasoft AdAware Free Internet Utilities (with Ad-Watch Live) v 9.0.7
- Spybot Search & Destroy 1.6.2
- WinPatrol 2010 Plus v 19.x
I had also not too long ago downloaded and installed some kind of ad/pop-up blocker for my web browser called "AdBlock Plus v1.3.9 and accompanying Pop-up Addon 0.2.9 ."   I just uninstalled those to see if that made a difference.   It didn't. All the other things I (still) have installed in list above, I have had installed for years with no conflicts/problems. I have tried turning off/disabling them all to see if that had an effect, and that didn't either.
One odd thing is that I have three computers at home. The laptop (we've been discussing) as well as two other older Windows XP desktops. All three computers have this very same problem, regardless of browser being used.

I want to transfer movies I have downloaded from iTunes from my iPhone 5 to a flash drive to be able to use when I have no wifi on my iPad,when power is out etc ?

I want to transfer movies I have downloaded from iTunes from my iPhone 5 to a flash drive to be able to use when I have no wifi on my iPad,when power is out etc ?

If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
