What are web sites like without Adobe Flash?

I'm new to the tablet world and am considering buying an iPad, but I understand that Adobe Flash will not be enabled when I browse on web pages. Can folks tell me how they've dealt with this, what are the consequences, etc. There must be articles about this? Thanks.

I guess I wanted to get a sense of what it's like browsing without Flash.
The iPad has a low powered dual core netbook like processor, so it's limited on what it can do and what it can see online.
Either you work within it's restrictions or you get a normal laptop for just about the same cost.
Here is a results of a browser functionality test on Firefox on my MacBook Pro verses a iPad 2 and others.
And to add insult to injury, Safari on a Mac is about 2x times better than Firefox on a Mac.
But Firefox on Windows is #1 and Safari on Windows is dead last, behind IE!
Strangeness is everywhere.

How can u open certain web sites w/out adobe flash? It won't let u download help

How do u open web sights w/Kurt Adobe flash?? It won't download it help

Flash itself is not supported on any iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) which is why you can't download it (http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/)
Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are probably out of luck if you want to play on-line though the iSwifter app might work on some of them, but again some flash games have app versions in the store.

How can I see content on web sites that require adobe flash player?

We installed a web tv from our clinic but it requires adobe flash player, how can I see this stuff?

Despite what has been said, there is no Flash player for iOS devices.

There are some browsers like Skyfire that can play some Flash content, but performance varies so try different apps to see if any can display the sites you go to...but don't expect greatness.

What are the possible reasons for adobe flash player crashing constantly?

I utilize mixcloud, soundcloud,and podomatic on a daily basis, and recently have been having problems getting these three to play. I'm not certain if there is a clash between the various plug-ins within my mozilla firefox browser. The error messages that I have been receiving sometimes acknowledge the problem as a adobe flash player error, a shockwave flash player error, and sometimes as a flash blocker being enable in my browser, which keeps me from receiving any audio playback and the music from downloading onto the page. I'm constantly being asked to reload the page, or request a crash report. Has anyone encounter this problem? Help!

Uninstall BOTH Flash Player and Shockwave using the Control panel.
Reinstall both using Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
and http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
Reboot
In Firefox, click Tools>Addons
Check to be sure BOTH plugins are enabled and the LATEST version

Sites that use adobe flash player work on safari but not on firefox-it keeps asking me to download adobe flash player

Whenever I try to use a web site that needs Adobe Flash Player, Firefox asks me to download it. When I download it and try again, it still asks me to download. When I access the same web site using Safari, I have no problem. This is true for many web sites - whichever ones require Adobe Flash Player.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== several months ago

Carole,
You do not seem to have Adobe Flash (aka Shockwave Flash) installed. If you did you would see it listed under your plugins. Follow the instructions in the article below to install Flash in Firefox.
See: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Installing+the+Flash+plugin
After the installation, check your version here: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
or here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
Current version is: 10.1.53.64

Go to the App Store and download a browser app like Puffin, which will give you some Flash ability. Check the App store to see if the site you are trying to watch the video from has an App.

Several problems continuous since first installing Firefox. Personal google search settings don't save; remember me options on web sites like Facebook aren't remembered; Youtube and Flixy videos don't play despite removing/reinstalling/upgrading Firefox several times; upgraded the latest flash plugin today, but no difference, symptoms are black play box with youtube and white box with Flixy. Disbale AV and antimalware makes no difference either.

I have a new problem with secondary web pages opening up without any action on my part other than simply moving the mouse pointer across the screen.

What Are All The Current Uses of Flash ?

I tried to figure out what the current potential uses of
flash are.
So here is my list:
a) Ad banners for Web sites.
b) User interfaces for Web sites.
c) Games for Web sites.
d) Artistic interfaces for Web sites.
e) Media ( video, music, slide show, etc ) presentations for
Web sites.
f) Video communication ( chat rooms ) for Web Sites.
g) Commercial Presentations ( using projector or laptop ).
h) Educational Interactive applications.
Considering the list above, I would ask you all:
1) What did I miss in the above list ?
2) Are web sites with full flash user interface on increase
or are they getting extinct ?
3) What, in the above list ( or anything omitted in it ), are
the most prevalent uses of flash ?

Hi iba49er
By "Support (How To, etc.)" are you meaning: how to use the
tools and functionalities of a elaborate web site or something else
Also, I think that "Training" would belong to the category
"Educational Interactive applications" -or- are you thinking on
something else ?
I am glad to hear that you are using full page flash
interface. However what is the general trend ?

Need help with iPad 2 web page access requiring Adobe Flash Player

New to apple have iPad 2 WiFi and need to access web pages that utilize adobe flash player what are my options since adobe and apple are not friends

There are options in the app store, which may or may not work. iSwifter and puffin are two you may try.......

What can I use instead of adobe flash 9?

What can I use instead of Adobe Flash 9 on iPad mini?

There are a number of apps in teh app store that provide "translation" type services for flash content (iSwifter, Puffin are a couple, there may be more). Basically these apps take the flash video content and route it to a third server that converts it to a different format and then routes to your device. Reveiws are mixed and they may not work with all flash content.
Alternately, you might check to see if the specific sites youare visiting have their own apps.

How to view sites that require adobe flash

Here's one to get you all laughing at the rookie. Considering switching from my pcs to macs and was just wondering if there are ways to view sites that require adobe flash, I've heard that you can't as well as you can, but the downloads are really bad. Just looking for a solid answer. This being one of the many thoughts/apprehensions I have about switching to a whole new computer world. Thanks for the help, Mike

Thank you both for the input, have to admit its a little daunting, thinking about changing from one os to another. But from what I've read and heard its really not that much of a hassle. Thanks again for the quick response' Mike

How do i open sites that require adobe flash? I can't open my own website, not to mention tons of other sites. It's ridiculous.

Flash is not supported on the iPad and never has been supported on any iOS device - and as Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and they have recently 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, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
