Why can I not download flash player on my apple iPad Air

I need flash player to do some work on my iPad Air but can not download it is there a way I can get it for the iPad Air

Historically:
2008 (March) - Apple® released the first iPhone, using iOS®. Steve Jobs was insistent and adamant that iOS® was NOT compatible with Flash® and NEVER WILL BE. Jobs' reasoning was that playing Flash® content is processor consumptive and it drains batteries, thus shortening the life of them in mobile devices. In six years, that hasn't changed. Not for the iPhone®, iPad® or iPod® Touch™. It never will change and there never will be a Flash Player® for iOS®.

Why Can't I Download Flash Player?

I have repeatedly tried to download Flash Player after getting pop-up messages from Adobe that tell me I cannot open attachments to emails because I need Flash Player 9.0 or higher. The messages say to download the latest Flash Player click here. I follow the instructions to the letter and get a message that the download of Flash Player 10 has successfully been completed. Then the next time I try to open an email attachment I get the same failure message. I have also gotten led to an Adobe tutorial entitled Flash Player | 64-bit operating systems which directs me to select the 32-bit Internet Explorer system on my computer by going to Start>Programs. I followed the download instructions using the 32-bit IE system and the download message says that Flash Player 10.0 has been successful. But I still cannot open the email attachments and still get the message that I need to download Flash Player 9.0 or higher. If I go to my complete list of programs on the Install or Remove Programs, I find a listing for several Adobe products such as Acrobat, ReaderX, Digital each of which has a size in bytes. Flash Player 10 is listed but there is nothing shown in the byte size column.
My computer is a Hewlett-Packard Pavilion with an Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2220 @ 2.40 GHz 64-bit operating system using Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 2. The default browser which I use is Internet Explorer 64-bit.
I'm 80 years old and trying hard to get along with computers. Please know that any help provided on this frustrating problem will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. And please make your suggestions in great detail without assuming I know very much.

Hi James, Check and make sure the Shockwave Flash Object is Enabled in your IE manage addons.
In FF, look for the Shockwave Flash plugin and make sure it's Enabled.
Make sure you are using the 32bit browser and not the 64bit.
Also check this for IE: (you want this OFF, not on)
To turn on ActiveX Filtering
In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, point to Safety, and then click ActiveX Filtering.
To turn off ActiveX Filtering on a specific website
In Internet Explorer, click the Filter button in the Address bar, and then click Turn off ActiveX Filtering.
To turn off ActiveX Filtering on all websites
In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, point to Safety, and then click ActiveX Filtering.
I don't have time to check on why Chrome is not working. Make sure your Anti-Virus is not blocking.
Also when you are trying to Install, all browser windows must be Closed.
Will check back later, but it's best to start you own topic as Pat suggested and flutie has done.

Why can I not install flash player or silverlight.

I am using OS X Ver 10.8.2 on two seperate machines and was recently asked to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. I downloaded it from the Adobe site and ran the install as they explained and it failed after approx 10%. I then used their uninstall progran and manually removed the files from the plug-in library and tried again and still got no further.
At the same time I was also asked to update Silverlight to run Sky-go and without repeating myself, have had a similar problem with that. If it was only the Mac book Pro I could accept my mistake but this has also happened on my Mac mini server which is about 12 months old.
Is there a problem with the latest OS X update? or can any one help with this.

Why can I not download the latest version of Flash? Keeps asking me for my password but won't accept

Why can I not download the latest version of Flash? Keeps asking me for my password but won't accept even though I go through a reset process of a new passwork to ensure it is correct.

What kind of password? Can you post a screenshot of that prompt?
Also, what is your operating system & version?
What is your web browser?

Why can I not download any apps to my Itouch Gen 2?

Why can I not download any apps to my Itouch Gen 2?
SO, I just purchased 2 4th gen ITouch’s and a 2nd gen Ipad for my kids. All is well and fine however my second gen device is toast so I am using one of my kids older 2 gen ITouch. My kids had been complaining that they could not download anything on the 2nd gen devices but I figured they were doing something wrong, my bad. The device has Netflix that works just fine but I am finding that if I were to delete the app and did not have it backed up I would not be able to get it back from the appstore. The device has been taken care of and is in good working order, but I am finding that Apple has chosen to no longer support IOS4.2.1 which I get. However I would expect that at a minimum I would be able to download any app that was available for the 4.2.1 os at the time the next version was released.
Drive space it cheap and ****** off customers are expensive.
Apparently Apple has planned obsolescence built into their business plan which I am finding pretty hard to swallow.
I just purchased over a grand worth of new devices and I am wondering if that was wise since apparently apple will deem them obsolete in a couple of years. That great because the newer devises are great, however I have a devise that there is nothing wrong with and apple has made the choice to no longer support the devise and not allow applicable software downloads making the devise basically useless. This is not supporting your customers!
I would hope that Apple changes their posture on this planned Obsolescence and backs its products durability with the ability to get applicable apps for the actual lifetime of the devise and not some 2 year window.
I brought my concerns to the nearest apple store where they gave me some song and dance about how the older devise was not fast enough. This is probably true for the newer apps but I think if this was a limitation then ITunes should make the newest version of the app at the time of the app is available for the devise.
Like I said drive space is cheap and this is like a row in some database.
I am wondering if I will continue to buy apple products.

If it really is only your email, that is not valid, reset your primary email address at https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
If that does not work, because of a forgotten password or security questions, or because your account has been disabled for security purposes, you need to give Apple Support a call - only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.

Apple's iOS platform (iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch) has never, and will never support flash.
First on this; Thoughts on Flash. This is from Steve Jobs regarding Apple's views on Flash (2010)
Second; Adobe stops making Flash for mobile devices. This is from Adobe themselves last year stating that they would stop making Flash for mobile devices.
If you can find the App equivalent of the programs you are looking for, then congratulations, however, if you require specific 'programs' requiring flash, then the iPad is certainly not for you, and returning it would be the best choice (granted you are still within the return period).
The lesson in this; Research what a device can and cannot do prior to purchase

Because it won't run/install on an iPhone 3G. You need to purchase a new phone if you want to use apps like Facebook.
