Should I install adobe flash on my apple products

Should I install Adobe Flash on my Apple products?

It depends on what you do online. If you routinely view pages wth video, it is still hard not to have Flash.
If you decide to install it, be careful of where you get it. There are malware version out there. I will ONLY install flash form this site:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Note that iOS devices do not support Flash. Mac computers do.

    Should i install Adobe Flash Player. My youtube is requesting flash player.
    Thanks

    You should have no problem as long as you download it from www.adobe.com.
    Other site that you can download from may have loaded a bunch of adware to the Flash Player that can be a royal pain you know where.

  • Should I install Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Air?

    Hello everyone
    I was wondering if I should install Adobe Flash Player.
    I watch YouTube a lot and use Safari 7.0.5 as my web browser of choice.
    I don't usually play many online games though.
    However, there are some sites I use that require Adobe Flash Player.
    Thanks for all the recommendations
    Model Name: MacBook Air
    Model Identifier: MacBookAir6,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core i5
    Processor Speed: 1.3 GHz
    Number of Processors: 1
    Total Number of Cores: 2
    L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
    L3 Cache: 3 MB
    Memory: 8 GB
    Boot ROM Version: MBA61.0099.B12

    personally NO, unless you are using something that demands it.
    aside the spat between adobe and apple, it does grind and hog the processor to death - hence why apple decided not to 'support' it.
    -just take a look in activity monitor once it starts up.
    It (can) also leave vunerabliites to virus 'type' infections;
    IF you do indeed decide to load it up, be VERY carefull where you get it from, and ignore ANY POP UP message about updates etc -
    *ALWAYS* ONLY go Direct to the adobe flash site, never, never any other 3rd party site. both for install and updates.

  • Should i install adobe flash player on macbook pro with OSX

    Just purchased my first macbook pro, I am thinking of installing Adobe Flash Player but wasnt sure if this is good idea or not. Any suggestions?

    Sure - most of the content on YouTube - and much of the video content on the web - uses Flash technology.
    Just make certain that you get it straight from Adobe -> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.
    Happy computing!

  • Should I install Adobe Flash on my MacBook Air?

    Kind of afraid to install Adobe Flash on my new MacBook Air after the initial press regarding decreased battery life? Is there an optimized version for the Air? What are the Pros & Cons?

    The latest 10.3 version of Flash works OK.  Although it is less resource intensive you will still experience shortened battery life when watching Flash videos, but not as bad as older versions.  You will find it at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • Should I install adobe flash update on my imac

    A window popped up asking to install new Adobe Flash Version 11.4 Update. Should I do it? Does Apple want us to have Adobe Flash on my iMac at all? Thank you all for your comments and insight...

    There is no reason not to have Flash player on your iMac. Be sure you install it from Adobe's web page, not some other (possibly hacked) version.
    Best of luck.

  • Should i install adobe flash player update

    I thought I heard about a virus having to do with Adobe Flash and I keep getting asked to install the updated flash player. Should I?
    Thanks,

    You should always keep up with Flash updates, because Flash can have security vulnerabilities that can compromise your machine.  (Admittedly, there has yet to be any malware that uses Flash to install on a Mac, but there's a first time for everything.)
    However, the only way you should ever update Flash is by downloading the latest version directly from Adobe's site:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    There has been malware that pretends to be an Adobe Flash installer.  That is, in fact, where the infamous Flashback started out before switching tactics this year.  So never trust any site or e-mail that tells you that you need to update and provides a link!  Get it directly from Adobe instead.

  • Should I install adobe flash

    Yes, it's safe to use. Apple does not comment about it.

  • Should I install Adobe Flash on my mac?

    Is it a good idea to put Adobe Flash on my Mac?  It makes me nervous.

    I suggest visiting ZDNet Security blog at least weekly

    The denial-of-service issue affects ColdFusion 9.0.1 and earlier versions for Windows, Mac OS X and UNIX.
    March 5:
    Adobe Flash:  The vulnerabilities, rated “critical,” have been fixed for Windows, Macintosh, Linux and Solaris OS users.
    - goes against the 'wait to patch' theory somewhat depending on your browsing and other factors.  What Adobe does not say - sometimes they have had and been working on a patch for months and I recall reading an advisory about this upcoming patch.
