What's the status with Flash and Android?

I have a Samsung Note 3 and can I install Flash Player. The only thing I can do is to install some other browser that supports Flash but they are full of commercials as and other junk. When will this situation be rectified?

It was Google, not Adobe, that announced almost two years ago that the Android Operating System would no longer support Flash (it's never been supported on the iPad).
The situation won't be "rectified" as there is nothing Adobe could do about it even if they wanted to.

  • What is the deal with MP4s and Itunes?

    Why does quicktime and Itunes always put "This document could not be opened"/"Quicktime does not support this file type"/"An invalid public movie atom was found in this file". Only about 2 movies have work in Itunes, and one became corrupted and kept making itunes close whenever I played it. WHAT DOES IT WANT? It says it wants MP4/M4V and I've tried both.

    What movies? From what source?  While mp4 is more restrictive than some containers it can still hold many variants of audio and video.  iTunes is limited in codec support.

  • So what's the latest with Java and Flash Player?

    ...And excuse me for not distingwishing between them, but what I do know, is that Flash Player version 10,1,102,64 that was mentioned here as the one for Tiger 10.4.11 on PPC machines -- is no longer appearing on the list at the Adobe's site.
    I also do know that I'm having some issues with other programs that require FP and/or Java...

    *Flash Player for PPC Macs*
    Adobe's last release of Flash Player for PPC Macs was in November, 2010 with release 10.1.102.64 Subsequent releases are for Intel based Macs only.
    To check your installed version of FlashPlayer - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
    To update you should download:
    Flash uninstaller: [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/865/cpsid_86551.html#prob1=uninst,os=m10.6,] Make sure you get the right one.
    Flash installer 10.1.102.64 [http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp_10.1.102. 64_and_9.0.289.0_archive.zip]  Open the archive to reveal yet more archives and multiple files. Select: flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg
    To install:
    1) Run Disk Utility and verify your hard drive.  If the hard drive reports errors then it will need repairing first (another topic).  If it verifies, run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
    2) Back up your hard drive, ideally to a bootable clone. A bootable clone will allow you to restore your hard drive to its original state should something go wrong.
    3) Quit all applications to ensure nothing is actively using Flash. You can even do the next step while booted to Safe Mode to make sure.

    [Safe Boot takes longer than normal startup|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107394]
    4) Run the uninstaller application. Adobe says, "Adobe recommends that you restart your computer before you install a different version of the player."
    5) Run the installer application from the .dmg file you got from the second download.
    6) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions on your computer. This is important when installing anything from Adobe.
    7) Restart your computer.
    Notes:
    Adobe installs things all over your computer. Simply dragging a file or two to the trash won't ensure you have uninstalled all old file components.

  • What it the problem with Flash sound?

    I have had nothing but a nightmare with the use of voice with Flash. It sound fine when I record it. It sound fine when I'm working with it in Flash. As soon as I export it the sound winds up all squished. What am I doing wrong?

    There are two places where compression can be applied to sounds that are imported into Flash.
    1. Select a sound in the Library and right click on it. Select the Properties... option. When that window opens you will see the options for setting the type and amount of compression for the individual sound file.
    2. In the Publish Settings window make sure that the "Override sound settings" option is NOT checked.
    You should hear the sounds in the finished .swf the same as you do when playing the timeline.

  • What are the SIMILARITIES between iPhones and Android phones?

    I'm writing a compare and contrast essay on iPhone and Android products, but I'm having some trouble finding the similarities. I've Google-ed the crap out of this subject, and Google (for whatever reason) thinks the word "similarity" means "difference." I found about 2 small articles that slightly hint at some similarities, but nothing that allows me to draw a conclusion and write the other half of my essay. Can someone please help?

  • What's the difference between flash and premier

    I know Flash is usually used for game production and Premier for video creation, but I saw poeple also can use Flash for video production as well. So I need to know what are the differences between the two of them.

    Flash is used most often for animation, and especially interactive animation.
    Premiere is used for video production, but with certain limitations, such as version support, or lack of it, can work with Flash animations.
    There is some cross-over, just as there is with Premiere and After Effects, but each program has specific uses.
    Good luck, and that is the very short answer. Others will likely be able to give you a point-by-point difference between Flash and Premiere.

  • What's the difference between "Droid" and "Android"?

    The Droid Charge commercial claims that this is VZW's first Droid that does 4G.  but the Thunderbolt runs the same exact OS, and did 4G first.  What makes it a "Droid"?  The obnoxious bootup sound (which I have disabled, BTW )?  I can't think of anything else.  Is Samsung TouchWiz "Droid", while HTC Sense is Non Droid?  If it is just a marketing gimmick, then at least be consistent, VZW.

    DbG2514 wrote:
    The commercial is more meaning it is the first Samsung Droid that does 4G on the verizon network. Like the Thunderbolt was the first HTC Droid to run on the 4G network. Motorola will have their first phone and LG has the Revolution.
    If that makes sense lol
     All phones running Google's OS are Android, only a select few for Verizon are Droid-branded.  Droid is nothing more than a marketing term that Verizon uses for specific phones (Droid 1/2/3, Droid X/X2, Droid Pro, Droid Incredible, Droid Charge).  You get the Droid Eye boot animation, droid sounds and the hope that you'll actually get updates with it being a Samsung.   The Charge is the first "DROID" to run on Verizon's LTE network while the Thunderbolt was the first phone period.  It's been said that the Charge wasn't initially going to be a Droid but it was renamed so they'd have a "Droid" LTE phone since the initial LTE Droid phone (Bionic) was delayed due to redesign.

  • What's the deal with DVI and Thunderbolt displays?

    I have up and until now only ever had a MacBook, I planned on getting an iMac desktop but that didn't work out. However, now I am set on getting a Mini, but I remember there was a lot of comotion with the display connector and was hoping someone could guide me on that. I am looking to get a second hand late 2012 Mini, 2.3GHz and 16GB RAM.
    I know there are Thunderbolt displays and DVI ones and converters and all that but what is the issue? Which one should I get?
    Thanks in advance, it was one problem I thought I wouldn't have to worry about.

    All I can say is that I have a TB display with my Mac Mini (late 2012) and it works great.  The Mini has a TB port so works with the display perfectly.  If you do not want a display that has speakers, camera, mic and ports on the back then you could get a less expensive non Apple monitor but I see some users have display issues depending on the specific monitor being used..  I will others comment on that.

  • What's the deal with flash memo

    Hi,
    two questions:
    ) would it be dumb to buy a player without flash memory these days, and why?
    2) what's the essential difference between the Zen Nano Plus and, say, MuVo V200?
    thanx,

  • What's the deal with notes and screenshots for upgraded app versions?

    We uploaded a new version to replace our 1.1 version of an app in the store.
    There was some confusion today that still persists:
    (1) For a while, the link to our current version app became invalid and we lost like 2/3rds of our normal sales until the link became valid again. Anybody else ever see that happen? Very frustrating.
    (2) Right now, there are two app versions inside itunes connect - the current selling one and the upgraded version awaiting review. I know the old one disappears when the new version is approved and goes on sale. But what is confusing is that the new screenshots and notes for the new version are also displaying in the current app version on sale in the store! I went ahead and added an explanatory note to potential downloaders... but is this a bug or something? Or is that the way it has always worked?
    How do people here tend to handle the timing of new screenshots and descriptions when you add new features and want to show them off in your update app?
    Thanks,
    doug

    This has been discussed a number of times here already.
    The only items cached for an update release are the specific 'update/what's new in this version' notes.
    All other changes will be updated immediately (within a few hours).
    You have 2 choices:
    1. Post the changes with a note (i.e. this is the next version, awaiting apple approval) so users aren't ticked by downloading the latest actual version.
    2. As soon as your update is officially released (monitor it) change the text and images.

  • What is the deal with flash?

    I can't seem to get the flash plugin to install. Is there a problem with it at the moment or am I doing something wrong? I can download other packages just not flashplugin.
    I am very confused.

    you going after the "flashplugin" package?
    check /etc/pacman.conf, see that multilib is uncommented and maybe uncomment more mirrors in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
    also, http://www.archlinux.org/packages/multi … ashplugin/ <-- you can download from your browser with the "download from mirror", and install with pacman (if issue is with downloading?).

  • What's the difference with iMessage and SMS when not on wifi?

    What's the difference when I use iMessage vs SMS? I know iMessage is only to Apple products. So when my messages uses iMessage when I'm not connected to wifi, would it go onto my data or texting? Thanks

    what if people dont know how to do that.
    sberman wrote:
    Here's one way to test:
    Settings > Messages > Send as SMS = "Off", and Settings > WiFi = "Off"
    Send a message to an Apple user.  If it goes, it would be sent via iMessage.  If it doesn't go, your carrier does not support iMessage.
    Another way is to send a message to an Apple user with just Settings > WiFi = "Off".
    If it's blue or the message says "iMesage" at the top, it went via iMessage.
    If it's green, it went via SMS text message.
    Good luck!

  • What is the story with Java and UTF-8

    Im getting bits of info about java and utf-8, things like
    "unless you wrap the FileInputStream, you'll get exceptions with UTF-8 encoding"
    So can someone tell where there is a good resource for detailing problems / advice when dealing with utf-8 encoded data???
    or
    Give me the low down and what the dodge actually is?
    Sorry for my poor English - im a scally
    Many thanks

    1) you've chosen SAX probably because it sticks well to your business requirements (i hope ;-), so keep it!
    2) i am using both James Clark's XP and Xerces as my SAX parsers (XP for big volumes because it offers better performances): i am processing only UTF-8 encoded files with no problems,
    3) sure, if you hit some troubles post again and a lot of pair of eyes will look into it!
