Is there a version of flash player that works on windows mobile 6.5?

Hi,
Forgive me if this question shows my ignorance but is there a version that can be installed that works with wm6.5?  When I visit web pages on my device that have embedded flash content I am advised that I need to update my version of flash player but the link takes me to an Adobe page that doesn't seem to have a version that will work for my device.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I've been reading lately about Apple's ongoing battle with Adobe over mobile apps and Flash. What I've gotten from all of it is that Apple wants to develop a mobile format replacement to Flash, and Adobe wants to block it. Apple's contention is that Flash is too bulky and consumptive for mobile apps and content. Apple has barred any mobile apps for iPhone and iPad from containing any Flash code, and Adobe says that has hurt their development of SDKs for people who want to make iPhone apps. It's turned into a regular peeing contest.
I would have to assume that Apple iPhone, DROID, and Windows Mobile all have the same issue with Flash content and software, since they all have to fall within the standards for mobile communications in order to be "universally accessible" by all the companies that make PDAs, tablets, and phones.
I've yet to see a Flash Player download for Windows Mobile, and given the current environment, with HTML 5 coming soon, it's not likely I will.

  • Is there a flash player that works on the ipad

    is there a flash player that works on the ipad

    Re: Flash player for Ipad
    Aug 14, 2011 2:22 AM (in response to phaisto)
    Folks, here's the sad truth, according to Engadget:
    "After nearly 4 years of the iOS platform, Adobe is still having difficulty being able to get Flash Player on Apple’s mobile platform. Many sided with Adobe on this one a couple of years ago calling this exclusion unreasonable, but the latest failures for Android Honeycomb to deliver decent Flash performance justifies Apple's decision. Even the Frash hacks bogged down the 1st generation iPad and the PlayBook had problems bring Flash to their Blackberry Tablet."
    Some months ago, before I really researched this issue, I was determined to "get around Steve Jobs obvious hidden personal and business greed agendas" and run Flash on a tablet. So I bought an ASUS Transformer Tablet just to be able to run flash (a $400 "app")! OK, just a wee bit over the top. But, I can now personally testify to the surprisingly disappointing performance of Flash on Android.
    Based on that confirmation, and on numerous reports from those running Flash on jailbroken iPads, either Adobe has lost all of it top notch programmers to Google, Facebook, -- and likely even Apple! -- or it never has been serious about porting Flash to iOS (I suppose this could have been intentional, thinking that the absence of Flash would do serious harm to the platform once folks found out).
    But whatever. I am finally over my Flash of "brilliance" and resigned to just skip over the web sites that require Flash, and wait till I am at my iMac or PC to do those that are really necessary. And, despite that the ASUS Tablet does technically run Flash, it does it so poorly that I preferred to use my Mac or PC.
    I gave the minty new ASUS Tablet which is otherwise a nicely done, but still "work in progress" (unlike my Android phone) to my med school daughter. She loves it -- and now calls me all the time to talk, usually about how to get stuff to work on it (but any excuse to talk to her is good by me ;-).

  • I downloaded the latest version of flash player, not working?

    I just got my computer back from being fixed and I'm redownloading everything I need.
    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.7.5 and i downloaded the latest version of flash player for it. It appears to be installed because there's a window opens up saying "Thank you, enjoy flash player." or something like that after I have downloaded the flash player.
    I've tried several times and I STILL can't watch videos or do things that require flash player.
    I went to my system preferences, clicked on Flash Player and went to the advanced bar, and it says "Plug-in version 11.9.900.117 is installed."
    However, when i go to this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
    And I click the "Check Now" button to see if flash player has been installed onto my computer, it says:
    "Sorry, Flash Player is either not installed or not enabled.
    Please go to step 2."
    And so I did and downloaded it AGAIN. I only saw the same thing after i reloaded the page and tried again.
    I do not have an anti-virus program, so it can't be that.
    Is the flash player enabled?
    How do I check if it's enabled/enable it?

    It's usually in your browser's Tools section.

  • Flash Player not working in Windows 8.1 (Internet Explorer 11)

    Hi,
    I cannot get Flash Player to work in IE 11 on Windows 8.1 (on a Surface Pro). This has been going on for a while, and I was hoping that  I've tried the usual suggestions from this community:
    Ensure it's not disabled: the control is enabled.
    ActiveX filtering is OFF
    Removed IE as a feature and reinstalled it
    I tried reinstalling the latest MSU with Flash Player (13 now) from Microsoft's site (KB 2942844, 64-bit) and that installation fails. Attempting to install the Debug version from Adobe (also an MSU) fails as well.
    Before I did the above tests, I did notice that my ActiveX control was not from Microsoft or Adobe, it was from an unknown vendor. On another system, it reads it's from Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component.
    Is there a way to clear this out and then hopefully successfully install the MSU?
    Please don't suggest to run Firefox or Chrome. I know I can do that, I am looking for a solution to run Flash in IE.
    SA.

    There are two registry keys and the KB patch that MUST BE manually removed before you can manually replace Flash Player ActiveX in Windows 8 or 8.1. I did it one time on a test machine and it was a MAJOR P.I.T.A.
    Before I did the above tests, I did notice that my ActiveX control was not from Microsoft or Adobe, it was from an unknown vendor. On another system, it reads it's from Microsoft Windows Third Party Application Component.
    ActiveX is a software framework created by Microsoft that adapts its earlier Component Object Model (COM) and Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) technologies for content downloaded from a network, particularly in the context of the World Wide Web. It was introduced 1996 (it's old enough to vote now - Yay!!!) and is commonly used in its Windows operating system. In principle it is not dependent on Microsoft Windows, but in practice, most ActiveX controls require either Microsoft Windows or a Windows emulator. Most also require the client to be running on Intel x86 hardware, because they contain compiled code. Adobe doesn't own or develop ActiveX. They write conformed code with it for the IE plug-in.
    Is there a way to clear this out and then hopefully successfully install the MSU?
    No. The ActiveX Flash Player plug-infor Win 8 or 8.1 can ONLY be modified, updated or repaired via Windows Update. You may need to repair IE first: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378  That'll fix the plug-in (in most cases) in Windows 8 & 8.1
    Please don't suggest to run Firefox or Chrome. I know I can do that, I am looking for a solution to run Flash in IE.
    Here's something to consider: Internet Explorer 11’s Many User-Agent Strings
    Microsoft is already trying to convince websites you visit THAT YOU ARE USING SOMETHING ELSE.
    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, Opera, Safari).
    Trouble 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. Or the content just doesn't play.
    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. Not everyone has converted to HTML5 yet, though.
    Facebook and other game sites can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
    Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of content in 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.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend using another browser, even if you don't like the idea. Since most of the websites you visit with IE11 already see it as Firefox or Chrome, you might as well actually be using one or the other.
    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.

  • Flash Player not working on Windows 8.1, IE 11

    Continued problems with web pages on Windows 8.1
    Always saying "Thie webpage wants to run the following add-on: 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Microsoft Windows Third Party Application...."
    no matter what i pick, Allow, Allow always all ways keeps asking..
    Yes the Plugin is Enabled.
    Obviously if i turn off Active X filtering the message goes away, but doesnt help, as websites which require the flash player doesnt work...
    Ive manually tried uninstalling the flash player, by using the uninstall tool and deleting the files, but this just broke it more... so had to system restore it...
    Restored it back to a time before the issue, same thing !!
    Using this link > http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html
    and selecting Test Flash Player, gives me an icon to get flash player, it click the icon, then loops back to same page...
    Please dont tell me the solution is the Use Chrome or Use Firefox. As this isnt a solution.
    I would like a fix for IE11
    Anyone??
    can someone tell me how to actually contact Adobe about this issue...
    Thanks in advance, to anyone who gives some useful input to this.

    1. Continuing to use IE11 will continue your problems and your frustration. I won't tell you to use Chrome or Firefox, but THAT'S what will take care of this for you.  What you see  is a result of this:
    "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 (Read more here).
    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.

    2. If you'd like a fix for IE... You'll need to go to Microsoft for it, but as I already stated, they have NO INTENTION of fixing the abominable mess they made because they think it's a great idea.
    3. Contacting Adobe about Microsoft's garbage browser (and it IS garbage) won't do any good, because Adobe doesn't make IE11 and THAT'S wherein the problem lies.

  • Is it possible to change the version of Flash Player that Adobe Reader 9 uses?

    I'm currently attempting to put some flash content within a pdf using the new Rich Media extensions.  I have a working Flash .swf  that uses some of the newer methods that only Flash Player 10 supports.  The file can run on its own within Flash Player 10, but inside Adobe Reader 9 the flash player version is set to WIN 9,0,159,0 and the .swf file does not work.  Is there any way to change the version of the Flash Player used in Adobe Reader 9?

    Try code like this:
    <pre><nowiki>#window-controls .toolbarbutton-icon {
    width: 25px !important;
    height: 25px !important;
    </nowiki></pre>
    The three buttons have these IDs:
    <pre><nowiki>#minimize-button
    #restore-button
    #close-button</nowiki></pre>

  • Why are there two versions of flash player on my laptop?

    I'm running 64 bit Windows 7 Professional which seems to handle both 32 and 64 bit software.  I use Firefox as my default browser and use MSIE only when I must. 
    A Flash update failed so I checked the uninstall programs list thinking I'll just uninstall and reinstall the latest.
    Huh?  I found both "Flash Player 10 Active X" and "Flash Player 11 Plugin 64 bit."  Now I've no clue what failed to upgrade nor why there are two versions.  Why 10 AND 11 and why is one called "Active X" while the other is called "Plugin". 
    And, to confuse me further, there is also Adobe AIR.  I don't know what or why or how to deal with all of these.  Would somebody kindly explain?
    And, how do I figure out what update to which failed?
    frustratedfrequently

    The ActiveX Flash Player is used by Internet Explorer and the plug-in Flash Player is used by Firefox.
    Download the following files:
    Uninstaller for 64 bit Operating Systems
    Flash Player for Internet Explorer
    Flash Player for other browsers
    Close the browser and disconnect from the Internet.  Run the uninstaller and restart Windows.
    Delete all remaining files and folders located in the following directories. (tip: copy and paste these paths into the path bar in an Windows Explorer window) 
    C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash 
    C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash 
    %appdata%\Adobe\Flash Player 
    %appdata%\Macromedia\Flash Player
    Verify that the file “FlashPlayerCPLApp.cpl” in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ system, has been deleted.

  • Is there a version of flash player for iPad

    Have trouble viewing some websites as no flash player is installed and when trying to download the iPad rejects it saying the operating system is not compatable but I am on the latest operating system.... Is there an alternative or is this just something you have to live with.

    You'll want to use Photon, iSwifter or Puffin - these are the three best players. Generally, it's the best not to purchase SkyFire or, even worse, Go2Browse.
    Do you have a particular Web site you'd like to use? I can quickly test these browsers with the site so that you don't end up having to pay for at least two of them in vain.

  • Can't get new version of Flash Player to work.

    Both the NY Times and Slate sites (this is today, though this started with the Times two days ago and I didn't get to it until today) indicated I needed to update the player. Did so from links on both sites, the download and install shows as successful, but no good on getting anything to work and as far as the sites are concerned the new version isn't installed as I'm still being told to install it. Went to Adobe site directly to install it, that didn't work. Checked through the troubleshooting site and did all that I was told to do there, went into Tools, made sure scripting was enabled as was Java script and both were, I didn't need to change anything. After downloads closed and reopened browser (IE right before 9, OS Win 7 64-bit), no good, then re-started computer, at least twice (at this point I've lost count) and also no good. Noticed someone else's post indicating problems with YouTube videos and I have that, too. I go to some videos and for a very brief flash of time I see a red banner at the top of the video, barely there long enough for me to read, telling me something about Flash Player. This was never an issue before the download so I have no clue what's going on here.
    Help.

  • When will Adobe finally make a Flash Player that works well on Mac OS X?

    Every single Mac user in the world has issues with Adobe Flash Player. Whether it be crashing, slowness or temperature bursts of the computer, everyone has some issue. Flash for Windows is a well-developed plugin and works well, unlike Mac’s version. It has been years now and Adobe has done nothing. My question is, when will something be done. Is there a way to fix all these issues, Adobe, or is that to difficult for you? Thanks and post your thoughts.

    Funny, my Imac is the only box here that does NOT have issues with it,
    and Im running FF 3.5.4 and Flash 10,0,32,18
    ALL windows boxen are broke, and all run the latest Flash and Firefox 3.5.4
