Websites don't recognize Flash Player 10.1 on Droid X

I have had my droid x for a few weeks now. I have been able to view flash based sites before. However, today I go to common sites like cnn.com. youtube etc and it says I don't have Flash Player installed?! Has anyone else run into this issue?

Thanks..I have to apologize for my error. Google search was defaulting to the Beta Firefox I installed a couple of days ago. I unistalled it and the sites work fine in the native browser.

Some websites don't recognize Flash Player update

When I go to certain game websites to play games, they keep telling to update my Flash Player. When I do, it still doesn't recognize that I've done so. I'm running Windows 7, WP Professional - and according to everything I've checked, Flash Player is installed and running fine. It works fine on Google Chrome, but the sound is missing, even though my sound checks out fine on IE8. Can anyone tell me how to fix?

What is your installed Flash Player version? See http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html#main_Find_the_Flash_ Player_version_installed_on_your_machine

Some websites don't recognize that I have Flash Player installed

I have the latest version of Flash Player installed, my browser shows it to be enabled, and it works on most sites I go to. However, other sites, particularly CNN, recently started giving me error messages that I don't have Flash Player. I've reinstalled it several times, to no avail. What do I need to do to get these sites to recognize that I do have Flash Player installed?

Chris,
I'm running Windows 7 64 bit OS. On the browser, I use both Chrome and IE 9, but only have the issue in IE 9. Flash works fine in Chrome, but only for some sites on IE 9, but not others. There are no extensions or blocking apps that are interfering as far as I can tell.
Thanks,
Drew

How do I prevent Adobe Website attempt to install Flash Player which freezes Windows e-mail browser.

For past several days, my Windows e-mail browser frequently freezes and must be closed. This occurs whenever message near top of browser states that Adobe website wants to install Adobe Flashplayer. Windows explanation states that termination is a result of Data Execution Prevention (DEP). How do I stop Adobe Website attempts to install Flash Player, or if that is not possible, what is a solution? I have uninstalled Flash Player in an attempt to resolve problem without success.

You can find a link and instructions for the last version of Flash Player compatible with PowerPC in this FAQ:
What version of Flash Player should I use with my Power PC based Mac?
For what it's worth, Apple itself discontinued support for PowerPC with their operating systems back in 2009 with the release of Snow Leopard. Regardless, I know its frustrating when your system is no longer supported. Hopefully the instructions I posted in the FAQ allow you to get Flash content running again.

Websites don't recognize I have latest Flash player

Hi, websites do not recognize that I have the latest version of Flash Player installed. (currently 10.0.45.2, and this is confirmed by the Adobe website.) When I want to watch videos or news feeds on the websites, they ask me to upgrade to the latest version of Flash, and link me to the Adobe website. I have Windows XP and use Internet Explorer 8, or Mozilla Firefox.
I have tried uninstalling older versions, rebooting, adjusting security options to allow Active X.
It's frustrating, please help!! Thanks

Hi Neil, The Norton security and their Firewall, unless you disabled it completely would most likely have blocked the install of Shockwave Flash Object, the ActiveX Control.
I would download the Adobe Uninstaller to your Desktop:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Download Flash Player Installer for IE to your Desktop:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
Set your Security via Internet Options to Medium for the Internet Zone.
Disconnect from the Internet, Close all browsers and Disable every component you can find of Norton and disable the Firewall. Check your system tray for any apps that may use Flash and disable them.
Run the Uninstaller, when finished Reboot(restart) your computer. When fully rebooted, Reboot again.
Run the Installer and when finished, Reboot Once.
Re-enable your Anti-Virus and Firewall and Connect back to the Internet.
Check your Flash folder and post back the files listed.
Check in the add ons for the Shockwave Flash Object ..ActiveX Control...Flash10e.ocx (vs 10.0.45.2) making sure it is listed and enabled. Post back that info also.
Also since the vs of Norton you have you may want to consider obtaining a more current Anti-Virus program. If you do,
the Norton Removal Tool is highly recommended in order to completely remove it from your system. Just removing it from the Programs and Features is not enough and will interfere with any new Anti-Virus program you install.
If you have any questions, please ask.
Thanks,

How can I view a website that requires adobe flash player on my ipad

I wish to view a website but a message is displayed the adobe flash player is required but is not supported by my iPad. Any suggestions, I am new to iPad.

Adobe Flash is not available for mobile devices, and has never been available for iOS devices. Adobe ceased development of it a year ago and removed it from availability for Android devices in August.
So, in short, Flash is dead on mobile.
If the site you are trying to visit wants visitors from the ever increasing number of mobile devices, they may have a dedicated app available in the AppStore. Otherwise you'll have to view it on your computer.
There are a few alternative browsers that offer limited compatibility with some Flash-based sites, but whether they'll help in your case, I don't know. Look for Skyfire, Puffin, Photon etc.

After new OS update Safari doesn't recognize Flash Player.

After updating to OS 10.9.4, Safari says "No Flash Player detected" when I try to run several of my web based programs even though I have no problem with the same web based programs when using Firefox. Additionally, this issue only exists when using the administrator account. There is no problem when using my other account set up for my students.

If you can't install or update Flash, follow these instructions.
If you have installed the latest version of Flash, please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 8. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or restart the computer before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data...
and confirm. Close the window. Then select
           ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
a. If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then select the Security tab in the Safari preferences window. In the list of plugins on the left, there should be one—and only one—entry for "Adobe Flash Player," showing the same version number that you installed. Select that entry. On the right there will be a list of websites for which you have specifically allowed Flash, if any. It's normal for the list to be empty. Below that is a menu labeled
          When visiting other websites
From that menu, select either Allow or Ask.
b. If you still get the alerts, then go back to the Flash Player preference pane and select the Advanced tab. Click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
c. If the alerts still persist, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
          Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
In the Safari preferences window, select the Advanced tab and uncheck the box marked
          Stop plug-ins to save power
Step 6
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
          Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 7
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 8
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
          Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
          Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 9
Select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

Facebook doesn't recognize flash player

I'm have the most recent flash player and Internet Explorer, running Win 8.1. When I try to upload photos on Facebook I'm shown a prompt that says I don't have flash. I click the link, am taken to adobe where I'm told that I do have flash but am not running IE in Win 8. I've gone through the whole checklist of enabling shockwave (it was never disabled) and turing off active x filters (also already in that condition) and can't seem to get Facebook to accept that I've done everything it says that it needs me to do.
I've installed firefox to see if that would work, it gave me the same "need flash" prompt so I uninstalled and reinstalled the newest flash player. Now firefox allows me to batch upload photos but IE still thinks I don't have flash and adobe.com still thinks that I'm not running IE.
Is there anything I can do to make your product work in internet explorer?

It's NOT that Facebook doesn't rrecognize Flash Player. It doesn't recognize IE11, and if it can't recognize the browser, it won't recognize the plugins in the browser. Microsoft is aware of the problems with their new browser, but... they're in no hurry to fix it.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using a different browser. Trouble with that is... it's seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using 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.

Facebook does not recognize Flash Player

I have tried to install and uninstall Flash Player from Facebook multiple times and it still won't recognize it. I just did the test on your site to see if the program is installed on my computer and it says it does recognize the program on our computer, and the clouds move in the picture to test it. However, when I go to add an album of pics on Facebook it keeps telling me to download the program?
HELP!
Thank you.

Problem is, you have THREE factors involved here.
1. Microsoft, who now embeds their OWN modified Flash Player in IE.
2. Facebook, who has to keep up with three OS's (Windows, Mac and Linux), and more than a dozen different browsers.
3. Adobe, who makes the Flash Player for three OS's and more than a dozen different browsers.
Guess which two Adobe CAN'T control?
As I posted, BOTH Microsoft and Facebook have acknowledged the problem with IE11 and Facebook. That's where the problem lies. This wasn't a major issue before IE11 was released.

Website won't display Flash Player.

I currently am using Windows XP SP2 with Firefox v 15.0.1. (flash 11.5.502.110)
For my schooling, I am required to access a Continuing Education website.
This website works on my laptop (Vista w/ Firefox 15.0.1) AND at work (Windows w/ Internet Explorer).
When I access this website on my current computer, everything loads, except there is a giant void in the middle of the screen. To me, it is currently a white space (it's supposed to be a flash of various cards/topics that scroll right
to left).
When I right click on the "space", I'm given the options of "settings..., global settings..., About Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.110).
I have gone through each option and ensured that they are all set to allow.
Please help!!! My laptop is on it's last legs and this computer will be my constant

Unfortunately, yes. I tried the site with it already "enabled". Then "disabled" it, closed the browser and opened site again ... still no flash

Reader Extensions does not recognize Flash Player

Hi All:
Rather new to Reader Extensions ES 2 and have installed it on a test system. This use to work but now I am having a problem accessing the user web page.
Environment
Windows XP
IE 6 or 7
Flash player 9 or 10
Issue:
When I access http:// localhost:8080/ReaderExtensions/welcome I recieve a page display stating "This content requires the Adobe Flash Player 9 or above." Get Flash.
Steps taken to date:
I originally had Flash 10 but have tried downgrading to Flash 9 with no results.
Re-installed Reader extensions after changing Flash versions with no results.
uninstalled Reader Extensions and cleaned out the registry. reinstalled Reader extensions with no result
Note: the installation had no errors and was doing a Turnkey - express mode install
Upgraded IE from 6 to 7 with no results.
Searched the Internet for similar issues
Searched the Adobe forums with no results.
Anybody with any ideas?
Thanks,

Hi Paul:
I am using ES2 or Reader Extensions 9. I have tried both Flash 9 and 10. From investigation on Web, 10 should be fine with ES2 but I downgraded it to version 9 just in case.
Regardless, it doesn't work with either Flash 9 or Flash 10.
This is only a problem when trying to access the user interface. I can access Reader Extensions AdminUI. I can change settings etc so there is no problem with the install or configuration, I just can't load the user interface to actually reader extend a PDF.
One thing I noticed on my production system using LC Reader Extensions 7, in IE there is the Shockwave Flash Object (version 10) under "Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer". I do not see this on the development system with ES2.
Thank you,
David Chamberlin

Win 8 64bit IE11 won't recognize flash player

help please

Flash Player for Win 8 and 8.1 with IE is embedded and maintained by Microsoft. "It's their baby" as the saying goes. You cannot update or reinstall it from here. It can only be updated via Windows Update, and Microsoft released a "Tuesday patch" on November 12 which contained a Flash Player update.
If you're still having troubles, see: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html for recommendations to resolve them.

Ask your question.I would like to watch/view certain sites or shows but don't have flash player or the correct Domains

How do we watch sites that request Flash players?
