When will Flash be available for iPad?

does anyone know?

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices and the no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
  1. Puffin
  2. SkyFire
  3. Photon Flash
  4. Browse2Go
  5. Swifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

    when will firefox be available for ipad mini

    Apple requires all web browsers in ios to use it's web browser framework.  Apple has done most of the work for writing a web browser app.  That is why you see so many web browsers in ios.  Firefox doesn't use this framework on the Mac.  It would have to toss much of the firefox code and replace it with Apple's framework.
    If you need a web browser with more features, try iCab.

  • When will flash be available for iPhone?

    I just watched the impressive iOS5 preview video and was sad to see that Apple has still not incorporated Flash into their iOS. I was just wondering if anyone knew when they might, and what is the hold up?

    The official word from Steve Jobs is never.
    This has been asked over and over and over again on these forums.
    Do a search.
    And even if anybody from Apple knew something, they can't and won't say anything, especially here.

    Adobe is working on a Flash to HTML5 converter that will convert your Flash applets to HTML5, you can check it out here -http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/wallaby/
    Incorrect, Wallaby does not convert Flash applets to html5.
    What Wallaby does is allow you to use ONE tool in flash, the timeline, which is used to draw and animate. Nothing else flash does can be exported using wallaby, only timeline animations.
    Basically what wallaby does is allows you to make an html5 equivilent of an animated .gif
    ZERO code used in flash is exported, meaning zero interactivity can be exported.
    Not only does wallaby only export timeline animation in animated gif format for use in html5, but it cant even export filters, like glows, drop shadows etc.
    Wallaby simply takes advantage of a new animation element just released on the web called <canvas> it uses canvas to show your animation, exactly like a gif. No interactivity, no code, nothing, simply a stationary animation.
    What you do with that animation beyond wallaby is up to you, just like developers have been using animated gif advertisements, wallaby is ment to do the exact same thing, allow advertisers who have simple animation banner ads, publish them to html5 format for use on ios.
    Yes that is right... no longer do you have the ability to block ads on ios like you can on all other systems, because your ads very soon will be in a format that you or your computer can not distinguish between actual needed content.
    Again, wallaby simply makes html5 versions of animated gifs you build on the timeline, that is all it does, it makes animated gifs.

  • When will Siri be available for the iPod Touch and the iPad?

    When will Siri be available for the iPod Touch and the iPad? Really wish Siri would be expanded to other high end Apple devises like the iPod Touch 4th generation and the new iPad instead of it just being iPhone 4S exclusive. That's such a cool feature!

    Well.. Me and one of my good friends both have iPod Touch 4th gen 32gb's and my friend read on the Technobuffalo website that IOS 5.1 was suppose to come with Siri for the iPod touch and probably the iPad and I updated my iPod 4th gen to IOS 5.1 and it still doesn't have Siri !

  • When will airplay be available for other iMac?

    My i7 2010 iMac can't run AirPlay yet.  When will this become available for the rest of us??

    when will airplay be available for other iMac?
    Probably never.
    Airplay mirroring is only available on these models:
    iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
    Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)
    MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)
    It will presumably become available on future Mac releases. For everyone else, there's the third-party, AirParrot.

    Firefox requires an cpu that supports ARMv7. The LG Optimus S supports ARMv6. Unfortunately our tests on ARMv6 have shown that the cpu is just too slow to support Firefox.

  • When will FaceTime be available for other Platforms?

    When will FaceTime be available for other Platforms? Steve Jobs, the CEO of the company at the time, said Apple was working on making FaceTime an Open standard.
    With already so many FaceTime enabled devices out there, and with so many financially strapped individuals relying on the cheaper android devices for both their phone and there Internet, opening up FaceTime to all other platforms will make facetime the default videoconference utility. I want to see this implemented for medical calls to nurses and providers in helping them to assess patients from a distance that are unable to travel. Visual/live communication would be a breakthrough.
    This can already be implemented with patients who have a iOS devices, or trying to get them to download app that other devices can use....but it is not as seamless as FaceTime. When will this promis be fulfilled?

    There are no other options for using FaceTime. GG was referring to other services with a similar functionality such as Skype. Again, none of us here knows what Apple has planned for FaceTime nor when, or indeed if, they will ever open up FaceTime to other developers.
    Regards.
