Which of these 2 articles is correct on Pentium processor system requirement for Flash Player 10?

http://www.ehow.com/info_8526453_flash-player-10-system-requirements.html says that Flash Player 10 on Windows computers requires "a Pentium 4 processor running at 2.33 GHz or an Athalon 64 2800+ processor."
However, http://www.downloadatoz.com/essentialware/adobe-flash-player/what-is-system-requirement-of -adobe-flash-player-10_g.html says:
"System Requirements of Adobe Flash Player 10:
• Windows 2000, XP(SP2 and above), Windows Server, Windows Vista., Macintosh OS X, Linux
• Intel Pentium 450MHz, AMD Athlon 600MHz processor (for Windows);...(for Mac)"
My ThinkPad PC does not meet the processor system requirement for Flash Player 11 or 12, and does not meet what ehow.com (above) says is the processor system requirement for Flash Player 10. However, it does meet what www.downloadatoz.com (above) says is the processor system requirement for Flash Player 10. Adobe.com has the operating system requirements for Flash Player 10, but no longer has the processor system requirement for Flash Player 10.
My question is:
(a) Is that "Intel Pentium 450MHz [or] Intel Core Dual" system requirement (from downloadatoz.com) for Flash Player 10.0 and that "Pentium 4 processor running at 2.33 GHz" system requirement (from ehow.com) for a later version of Flash Player 10 (like 10.1); or (b) is one of those two sources (ehow.com and downloadatoz.com) mistaken as to the processor system requirement for Flash Player 10 on Windows computers? If (b), which of those two is the correct Pentium system requirement for Flash Player 10?

What processor does your thinkpad have?
I know they now come with an Intel M, which is the functional equivalent of the Atom, and for ALL intents and purposes, meets the minimum for Flash Player 12 or 13 as long as it's 1.66gHz or faster.
Using, or even considering using, Flash Player 10 in a system newer than Windows 98 or 2000 (SP1 or 2), is unwise and unsafe, expecially if it isn't a "standalone" (not connected) system.

  • I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, but when I click on the free download, it says that Apple does not support this application, so I cannot use it.  This stops me viewing quite a few interesting things.  Any ideas?

    I am trying to use sites on the internet which require Adobe Flash Player, and when I click for a free download it says that "it is not available for your device because of restrictions that Apple has put in place".  Any suggestions on how to overcome this?

    Flash is not, and probably never will be, supported on the iPad : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Plus it would be up to Adobe to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, something which they have never managed to do and which they have now given up on trying to do.
    Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter and Puffin '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, so your could try checking there for your sites (and there is the built-in YouTube app).

  • Where can I find the system requirements for each version of firefox. I would like to know which version of Firefox is best for my 6-8 year old computer with AMD Sempron 2500+ 1,75 GHz and 512 RAM.

    I tried to find information of that very hard in your pages but missed. Is it possible to have system requirements somethere in firefox homepages?
    I don't want to try a newer version and then have a hard fishing of the earlier version which works.

    Just change the version number of following links

  • Firefox 3.6.14 is not displaying any site styles correctly on Mac OS 10.6 with Flash Player 10.

    I’ve spent some time researching this problem. These are things I’ve already tried:
    - updating Firefox, restarting browser
    - clearing cache, restarting browser
    - updating to Flash Player 10, restarting browser, clearing cache, restarting browser
    - restarting computer
    - making sure View > Page Style > Basic Page Style is checked
    - making sure no custom minimum font size is set
    - javascript is not being blocked
    - disabling addons
    Note: All sites appear as normal in Safari.
    Thank you!

    Thank you again, but the immediate above links did not resolve my problem. However because of the provided links, I meandered my way to a section of the support area that mentioned a file may have become corrupt in my Firefox profile. I created a new profile as suggested and the problem is solved!
    [[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile| I created a new profile by following these directions.]]
    Before I created the new profile, bookmarks were easily backed up through Boomarks > Organize Bookmarks and selecting the Backup option. This same menu was used to “Restore” my bookmarks by choosing the backup file and bringing it into my new profile.
    Ahh... beautiful Firefox, how I’ve missed you.

  • I recently made firefox my home page and it always tells me I need to upgrade to the latest version of adobe flash player which is already installed on my computer. It neve allows me to view the videos that require a flash player?????? [SOLVED]

    I can no longer play any video that requires a flash player even though it is installed on my computer

    I solved the problem through trial, error then success

  • I can't open some videos,etc. as these sites ask for flash player and I can't load it.

    This has been a problem ever since I upgraded the system to Mountain Lion. 
    The message I receive when I try to install Flash Player is as follows:
    "You can't open the application 'flashplayer 10 ax debug 4.exe' because Microsoft Windows
    applications are not supported on OS X.

    >>11.8 is a beta version
    It's not, although macupdate & probably other third party sites still show the old one & offer the 11.8.800.88 beta alongside.

    (Kind-a in a rush, so I have not done an exhaustive search.)
    The request is: Please provide an Oracle site reference that explicitly indicates the upgrade from OCP 10g to OCP 11g does or does not require attendance to an approved ILT course.
    Pages searched so far:
    - http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=44
    The above page discusses the recommended training. But need to takle that training is 'recommended'[, not explicitly included/excluded.
    - http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=198&p_org_id=&lang=
    The above page is for fresh OCP and does not discuss OCP upgreade at all. (It DOES discuss OCM upgrade.)
    - http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=82#5Q1A (FAQ)
    This is now generated and no longer searchable. However the section on "Completing the Course Submission Form" does not include/exclude upgrades from requiring a new course attendance.
    "The Course Submission Form is the final requirement in obtaining *most* OCP and OCM certifications as well as some Oracle Expert Program certifications"

    Certification Forum Moderator wrote:
    You bring up a good point that this should be made clear on our upgrade page that training is not required for certification upgrade. We'll make that notation on this page to be more clear.Personal feeling is that training IS required to approach the upgrade exam. But I admit I am biased. ;-) perhaps something like:
    "A hands-on course, such as the Oracle Education 'New Features' course for DBAs is highly recommended when preparing to challenge the OCP upgrade exam. However the candidate does not need to submit a Course Submission Form to apply for the OCP Upgrade after successfully completing the upgrade exam and meeting the other prerequisites."

  • Looking for a pdf reader which meets these requirements

    I am looking for a pdf reader which meets these requirements:
    1- Open pdf starting from last page opened during last session
    2- Be able to scroll between pages vertically (not horizontally like many current ones do). Vertical scroll should be a continuous smooth scroll without doing a sudden full page pull in. Should behave as if pdf is one single very long page.
    3- Should be able to change width of page and lock it. Page should not move sideways. Page width should be remembered so when same pdf is opened, it opens in that width.
    4- A fast scroll feature. Useful for pdf's with hundreds of pages.
    5- Nice to have feature: when opening the pdf reader, it automatically opens the last pdf file on the last page read.
    I have tried all the free pdf readers in the AppStore and none met all these requirements except for two which had these issues:
    1- iRead limitation: When screen is touched for more than a second, the page is frozen (locked) and page can't be scrolled. Scrolling is done when doing quick swipes only
    2- FileApp limitation: Does not remember last page opened. Does not remember last width set. Fast scroll doesn't work properly when width is other than default.

    iAnnotate additional points
    iAnnotate works with DropBox to download and upload edited PDFs. It does all the other same things, email, USB, and iTunes etc. but it also can download PDFs from any web site.
    You can transfer hundreds if not thousands of files at one whack using the AIJ Utility on your desktop.
    If you transfer a large number of files you have to plan not to use iAnnotate a while as it has an index function that indexes all the text into a master 'dictionary' so it can do searches for data and find PDFs for you. This indexing takes hours if you transfer hundreds of moderate size PDFs at one time.
    The biggest PDF I have feed it was a Gimp manual at close to a thousand pages.
    Remember the scratch pad ram is only 256 MB in the current iPad. You can cash iAnnotate if you do something really dumb with such a large file. Other applications also grab and hold onto chunks of this ram in the iPad so it is best to force a memory reset before doing anything that is going to max out that ram.
    iAnnotate allows you to have more than one PDF open at a time and you can tab between all the open PDFs in a blink just as you would in a tabbed web browser.
    If you zoom a page larger than the width of the screen it slides around. Less than the width of the screen the page locks in the size while scrolling which is smooth between pages.
    iAnnotate is a very well made product for dealing with PDFs. Annotations display in Goodreader and in the Mac OS Preview.

  • I have lost track of the number of websites that do not work properly on the iPad without Adobe Flash player which is unsupported. I cannot use retail sites, billing sites and most important of all job application sites. All are missing tabs, links, info

    I have lost track of the number of websites which do not work properly on my iPad. They include retail sites, billing sites and most important of all job application sites. They all seem to require Adobe Flash Player which cannot be downloaded onto an iPad. Skyfire does not solve the problem. They all load without vital parts of the site such as tabs, links and correct formatting. Any suggestions?

    Most such brower/service combinations have a difficult time working with Flash-based apps and often fail completely. Flash videos are usually the most successful content these browers can handle. You can try the others apps - Puffin, iSwifter, etc - but you may find that none of them work, in which case you will not be able to use your iPad with these sites other than by using one of the various remote control solutions to take over a computer running the full Flash Player.
    IMHO, any developer that built a Flash application for a billing or job application site was an idiot, but I know that's out of the control of anyone but the relevant company.
    Regards.

  • How do I choose and then install the correct version of Adobe Flash Player for my machine?

    First thing - My computer -   PROCESSOR: Intel Celeron 450 @2.2 Ghz,  MEMORY: 4GB,  OS:  Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64 bit,  BROWSER:  IE 9.0.8112.16421
    Everything was hunky-dory until the auto-installer updated my version to the Flash Player 11.2 version and that's when it all went downhill.  As soon as it installed that version, none of the TV networks, news networks or Hulu recognized that I had Adobe Flash Player.  In addition, I could no longer create a blank new tab in IE or use the tools button (the little gear symbol) in the upper right hand of an IE window.  Because of the IE problems, I figured it was a problem with IE and went about searching for a solution in that arena.  I finally found something at Microsoft that helped me determine if it was an IE problem and went through the various steps.  The final step required booting into safemode and trying to replicate the problem.  IE worked fine in safemode so, Microsoft determined the problem had to be with outside influences.
    After several frustrating attempts with other fixes including virus scanning and firewall settings, the problem persisted.  I then un-installed Flash Player per Adobe's instruction and re-installed the recommended 'latest' version.  The problem remained.  So, when all else had failed I did a full system restore to a point over a month ago, which is prior to the occurence of the problem, while at the same time noting which drivers and programs would be affected.  I already had a sneaking suspicion that it was Flash Player because I read the full system requirements for the recommended version that the auto installer was trying to install (see below).  I then began updating everything one at a time to see if any of the windows/software/driver updates had any affect on IE.  None did until I got to the Adobe Flash Player and updated it.
    Now, what I think the problem is:  The auto installer ONLY looks at Operating System and Browser to determine which version of Adobe Flash Player is correct.  In this regard, my machine should use the latest 11.2 version.  HOWEVER, if you look at the full system requirements for the 11.2 versions, you will note that it requires a...... 2.33 Ghz processor!  In this regard, 11.2 is NOT the correct version for my machine as it only has a 2.2 Ghz processor.  And I think therein lies the problem.
    So.  I freely admit that I am not a computer expert and am, in fact, so far removed from ever even contemplating wearing such a title that I'm sure all who read this are sitting in your offices having a good laugh at my expense.  As such, I welcome anyone and everyone to tell me what I've done wrong and how I should go about fixing it.  If my deductions are correct, then could someone please tell me how to choose the correct version for my machine and then tell me how to actually install it on my machine.
    I know that this is a long post and I thank you all for your patience and any help you choose to offer me.

    Mr. Willener,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I did un-install and then re-install per the Adobe recommendations which are what you listed in your reply.  The problem remained until I did a MS Windows restore to a restore point a month or so ago.  The IE problems vanished.  However, now I'm using an outdated and unsupported version that is lower than most of the web pages require for their sites, at least the ones I want to view (they all say I need to upgrade my Flash Player which, when I did, put me in this fix).
    As to:

    Why would Adobe post a system requirement of 2.33 Ghz for 11.2 if it simply were not true?

  • Apparently Firefox 3.6.4 has already been downloaded and now it wants me to downoad Flash Player 's newest version which is: 10.1 but it's not downloading on it's own. They suggested that I remove previous Abode Flash Players which I have now is: 1) Adobe

    Earlier today Firefox was updated and downloaded. It is Firefox 3.6.4. But now it's asking that I download Adobe Flash Player 10.1. It wouldn't download on it's own, so they suggested that I remove the previous Flash Players which I only saw (2)two. The 1st one is: Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X. 2) Adobe Flash Player 10 Plug in. So, do I remove these two and then try to download Adobe Flash Player 10.1 again? Thank you and I sure hope you have an answer for me, because I don't know what to do. Must I have Adobe Flash Player 10.1 in order for the new version of Firefox, which is Firefox 3.6.4? Linda 6-29-2010
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == Firefox 10.1 was downloaded today, which is 6-29-2010

  • Do I have the legit and correct Flash player 10?

    Windows Vista Home Premium with Vista SP2  using IE7
    I had difficulty getting Flash player 10  version 10.0.32.18 from download at the adobe site. Kept getting error
    "GetPlus+  Error  Operating System Error! 16236.203.235"
    and I was not able to download from the adobe site. But then I remembered that if you don't have flash player and you go to a site that requires it, It will prompt you to download flash player. So I went to a legit site www.dallasstars.com it gave me a prompt to download adobe instaler and flash player. When I agreed, it gave me the install file for flash player and I clicked it. Now when I look at my programs in the add/remove listing I see ADOBE Flash Player 10active x version
    10.0.32.18  When I go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash I see the following items:
    Flashc.ocx
    FlashUtil10c
    both of which are digitally signed by ADOBE and version 10.0.32.18
    uninstall_active x
    and a install text document
    when I go to my IE7 under add-ons I see Shockwave Flash Object from adobe also version 10.0.32.18
    So bottom line, was able to get the legit and correct current version of Flash player 10 even though I went about it in a round about way? That the link from the stars website took me to adobe and adobe

    should restate I have flash10c.ocx not flashc.ocx
