Should I use adobe flash player ?

Hi,
I am an OSX user version 10.9.4
I have for some time been using Adobe Flash Player and since then I have problems watching anything that moves. I get a message box from Adobe asking me if Adobe can use more space on my disk. What does this mean?
Is there a better program other than Adobe Flash Player? Or do I even need a Flash Player? Is there a Flash player in Mavericks?
Lovely Day to You

In my experience, the biggest risk with Flash is that unscrupulous third-party web sites may say you need to update Flash and actually load you up with malware. Please see these older articles:
http://www.thesafemac.com/tag/fake-flash-player/
Flash is safely managed by ignoring popups telling you to download a new version. If you see one, go to System Preferences > Flash Player and select the "Advanced" tab to see what version you have:
Then go to Adobe's Flash Player download site:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
and compare the Flash version shown there with what your System Preferences show. If you are below what is shown, it is safe to update from that page AND THAT PAGE ONLY!
Note I set my Flash preferences to "Never check for updates. That way, any popup saying you need to update is known to be a scam that could damage your computer. I manually check for new update about twice a month. You can easily set a Reminder if you feel you won't remember to check.

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.

How to successfully install and use Adobe Flash Player on an iMac?

I have the latest OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. It makes actually several years that I have not been able to view videos that use Adobe Flash Player. This is true of several sports websites I like such as ATPtour.com and ESPN.com. A few days ago I have upgraded my OS to the most current one. And, I retried downloading Adobe Flash Player and it made no difference. I tried to see the videos using numerous different browzers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) with no success.
I know Steve jobs hated Adobe Flash Player because it was so inefficient. But, I thought one could still use it with Mac computers. Are you guys having as much difficulty as I am? If not what are the solutions to running Adobe Flash Player? Thank you in advance for your information.

The version of "Adobe Flash Player" on your system does not include the latest security updates and has been blocked. To continue using "Adobe Flash Player", download an updated version from Adobe's website.

You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
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/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Sick of not being able to use adobe flash player. Anyone else?

Purchased iPad to watch sporting events on Internet while traveling. Much to my disappointment, iPad does not support Adobe Flash. What gives? Ready to trade for Zoom and will recommend others to purchase same if not resolved SOON.

Not at all.
Ready to trade for Zoom
What is "Zoom"? Perhaps you mean Xoom?
and will recommend others to purchase same if not resolved SOON.
Then you should contact Adobe and see what they are doing to resolve it since Flash is their product and they gave up because they could not complete a version for iOS.

A page using Adobe Flash will not load in Foxfire. Have latest Foxfire and Adobe Flash downloaded. What now?

I am taking a class in Dreamweaver CS6. We created a page with a clip that uses Adobe Flash. The page renders like it should in I.E.10 but the clip doesn't even load in Firefox. I have downloaded the latest version of Firefox and Adobe Flash. Have 'reset' Foxfire. It still won't render correctly. Any suggestion of what I can try next?

This could be related to the HTML tags for the Flash media. If you use an <object> tag with a clsid, then Firefox will ignore it. Typically in that case, there is an <embed> tag within the object for browsers that do not use ActiveX.
If the page is online, you could provide a link so volunteers can take a look.

How can I open websites that use adobe flash ?

How can I open websites that use adobe flash ?

The website should open, but the Adobe Flash will not work as there's no Flash plug-in for mobile Safari.
After some failed attempts by Adobe to work out Flash for iPad, Apple decided to forgo it, and Steve Jobs published a famous letter on the reasons why Apple would not be supporting Flash on iPad.
The fall, Adobe announced that they were abandoning Flash on all mobile platforms, including Android, and they have deprecated the use of Flash as a plug-in on Desktop platforms. Flash will be moving to become a platform for development of cross-platform desktop applications and HTML5 will replace it for web and mobile purposes.
Web sites that still use Flash will slowly move away from the technology in the next few months. Most web sites that expected traffic from mobile device users have already moved away from using Flash.

12/13/2014 I suddenly no longer stream videos because of a blocked plug in on my Mac Safari 5.1.10 MacOSX 10.6.8 updated to snow leopard&mountain lion I use adobe flash

12/13/2014 I suddenly no longer stream videos because of a blocked plug in on my Mac Safari 5.1.10 MacOSX 10.6.8
updated to snow leopard& mountain lion I use adobe flash. My preferences allow all plug ins.

If my experience with a similarly aged computer is any indicator, you'll notice an immediately speed hit once you've upgraded to Mavericks. Each OS X update tends to be more memory hungry than the previous and my 2007 iMac wasn't happy with Lion until I upgraded the RAM and at that point Lion performance roughly matched Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion and then Mavericks shaved some speed off again. Mavericks on the 2007 iMac was okay for the most part but switching between applications was slow as was the fileselector.
My 2009 MBP saw similar slowdowns with Lion but I was above to upgrade it to 8GB which made a big difference. (My iMac was limited to 6GB) but I still saw a significant speed hit with Mt Lion when I tried to run multiple memory intensive applications. Seeing how my wife's MacBook Air dealt with Mt Lion with only 4GB I decided to install an SSD in the MBP and wow what a difference. Tried it with the iMac using a FireWire800 enclosure and saw similar improvement.
So to boil it down to one sentence, you are going to see a significant speed hit with only 4GB but if you can afford to upgrade your drive to an SSD you'll be amazed at how well that computer can run.

How can I use adobe flash player on iPad2

How can I use adobe flash player on iPad 2?

You cannot. Adobe does not make it for ipad.
This has been discussed over and over and over and over and over and over again on these forums. Please do a forums search - right side of this page.
There is no need to add yet another thread on this very tired subject.
Adobe has announces d that they are selling a platforms that will allow ipad users to view flash content. This is nothing that users will have. The developer of the video will have to do this.

Is there a way to play video clips that use adobe flash and if not when are you going to resolve your problem with them ? I won't buy another apple product until you do and I Know I,m not the online.

Use the search feature and type in Flash and there are like thousands of posts on this.
You seem to think you are addressing Apple with your post. This is a user forum and we are all users just like you.
