What is Apple's substtute for Adobe Flash Player on iPad?
Until Adobe can develop a version of Flash that works for mobile devices that is stable and doesn't hog memory resources or ***** up battery life, there isn't much anyone can do about this!
Android devices claiming to run Flash are having these issues, too. Steve Jobs and Apple simply won't allow Adobe Flash to with their mobile hardware/software with the state of affairs with Flash, now. If Adobe has a breakthrough and can develop a version of Flash or some sort a content providing software that works and plays well with mobile devices and platforms, the situation may change. For the foreseeable future, Flash is going to be absent on current and future Apple mobile devices.
On another note, PPC Macs are obsolete technology that is, at least 6 years old. OS X 10.5 was the last Mac operating system to still support PPC Mac architecture. This OS is , at least, 3 years old. OS X 10.4 Tiger is, at least 5 years old.
You can't expect either Apple or Adobe,or any hardware/software manufacturer/developer, at this time, to keep supporting older technologies. Especially, anything 5 or 6 years old or more. It's just not cost effective or practical.
Technology marches on. There are many of us, probably, still using PPC Macs, including myself. We're all in the same boat.
At some point, we're going to have to play catch up to the latest and greatest to be able to stay current on the grid and to be current with new technologies, hardware, and software.
I do not think this is a rational reason to jump ship on a company who, arguably, makes the best technology hardware/software integrated devices and computers in the world.

What Apple app works for adobe flash player?
On christmas i bought my iPad 3G+wi fi, my first dissapoint was to play in internet adobe flash video in two sites www.tuparada.com and www.integridadysabiduria.org, appstore recommends some apps equivalent to adobe flash, i tried Skyfire ($4.95) but it doesn't work, and i lost my money because Skyfire said they can not refund because Apple doesn' has policy refund, anyway my core cuestión is : how can i play internet vídeos which request adobe flash player.?
I think Apple should probably have to take most seriously this problem, because this kind of video is high popular , besides retailers do not quote the warning that we will not be allowed to play this type of video

There is no guaranteed solution for the iPad as flash is not and probably never will be supported.
Apart from Skyfire there a browser apps such as iSwifter, Puffin and Photon which 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites.

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 -
What is a good "free" substitute for Adobe Flash Player? I need this for photos to be developed.

You cannot substitute another app for Flash because it is proprietary technology. Apple is adamant about keeping Flash out of their phones and tablets, hence why you will not find it in the App Store. If you want to be able to use Flash on-the-go, consider purchasing an Android device.
Doesn't matter at this point. Android 4.0.3 is the last OS he'll have if he wants flash. Adobe has already stopped development for their mobile flash player. -
Does Apple have an alternative for adobe flash player I have websites that require it for viewing and they tell me Apple restricts Adobe.
Hi Ron. Timely question! Try "Hype"

I cannot load an app for Adobe Flash Player on my iPad. It says "not supported" on this equipment. Is that right? If so, is there a recommended sub that will satisfy that requirement? Some programs specifically say "adobe flash player"
What App? From where?
You can only get Apps from the App Store. nowhere else. If you are trying to download form a website you cannot do it.
If you need Flash Support for websites, you can download a flash supporting browser from the App store.
Examples are:
Puffin
https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/puffin-web-browser/id406239138?mt=8
Photon
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photon-flash-player-for-ipad/id430200224?mt=8
There may be others in the store. -
FOUND A FIX FOR ADOBE FLASH PLAYER 11.9.900.152
I have Windows 7, 64bit and Internet Explorer 11 installed. I found the fix for Adobe Flash Player after 2 days of doing everything. I thought that the fix should be something very easy and it was. I spent 2 full days doing all kinds of ridiculous things, i.e. uninstalling, reinstalling, restore computer, deactiving XActive, reactivating, changing stuff under internet options, etc. The problem was Internet Explorer 11 update caused Adobe Flash Player not to work or recognize the flash player, or installing a new router caused it not to work. Websites kept displaying messages to download Adobe Flash Player when I already did. There appeared to be a conflict where some videos played and other did not. Youtube did not work anymore. All the problems that other people posted under these forums happened to me. I could not play the games I was playing before, etc. Anyway, I am NOT a tech person and understand little and almost gave up when by accident I found the fix and EVERYTHING works without rebooting anything, uninstalling or reinstalling etc. as all the people in the forums posted. Everything was so complicated!!
THE FIX: Go to Goodgle Chrome browser. If you don't have it, download it. The Adobe Flash Player is included in this browser. Anyway, at the very top RIGHT HAND SIDE there are lines in a square formation. Click on that and go to SETTINGS. Go to very bottom and click on SHOW ADVANCED SETTINGS. SCROLL DOWN TO THE VERY BOTTOM and click on RESET BROWSER SETTINGS. After I did that, EVERYTHING WORKED!!!!!!!!!!! Youtube worked, my game worked in BOTH GOOGLE CHROME AND INTERNET EXPLORER 11. It was like a miracle and a simple fix.
I hope I can save some people ALOT of aggravation and frustration. Adobe should have this fix displayed PROMINENTLY EVERYWHERE if it is indeed this simple. Let me know if this helps. All I know is that I had the same issues as everyone else in the forums and now it is all fixed. I have very limited knowledge, almost none. It just seemed that something was blocking the videos from coming up.Thanks Mike. I'm not sure what I'm doing but I also re-downloaded the flash player and I got YouTube videos to play again. I have IE11 that I tried to uninstall (it won't let me) so I had to use a restore point, so videos I noticed in yahoo.ca can't play but I read lots of people having issues with this. But, by using a restore point, and re-downloading the flash player (a couple of time until it took), I got Youtube and my game back on IE11. I plan to use Chrome Google though after this experience as everything works there

It opens on the English page for me:
Some of your systems settings may be incorrect, so it opens on the first (Arabic) page. But you can always click on the English bookmark to go to the English section. -
Some sites ask for adobe flash player. My IPad doesn't support it. How can I get over it?
You could try a third-party browser app such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon which '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.

How do I sign up for Adobe Flash Player Extended Support Versions?
I looked on the website but was unable to find how to sign up for Adobe Flash Player Extended Support.
Thanks in advance for the help.
DanoHi UtahDano,
Can you tell me where you saw '2013'? I looked on Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe, Adobe - Adobe Runtimes / Reader Distribution License Agreement, and Adobe Runtimes / Reader Distribution Agreement, and I'm not seeing '2013'. Once I find out exactly where this is at, I can forward it to the appropriate folks to update.
Thank you.

What cellular products are compatible with Adobe flash-player?
What Cellular products are compatible with Adobe Flash -player?
To be precise, some OLD Android handsets will still have Flash Player installed, but it's not officially available to new ones (nor is it updated). There are some unofficial hacks in the Google Play store that allow you to install it on newer handsets but they're nothing to do with Adobe, and I wouldn't trust them all that much.
Kathymsg is asking in the Adobe Reader forum - so if she's asking about running Flash content within a PDF file, the answer is simple: there is no support on any mobile device and probably never will be.
