Why do you default to download McAfee with a flash plugin?

This is a dispicable practice and needs to stop. Bundling crap ware is the worst thing you can do. Stop it.

Adobe offsets the ongoing development costs of Flash Player, which is made available for free, by offering users the option to download software from select Adobe partners.  I understand that this is a controversial change for some users and I'll make sure to represent your concerns to our management team.
The simplest and most straight forward alternative is to uncheck the checkbox. It’s an opt out situation, not opt in and I also understand your position on that.
In the future just download the installers without DLM and bundled software from : http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

  • Why is there a Google download included with the Flash Player

    I really don't want Anything Google on my computer and there is much dicussion about Googles intrusion, in trying to install a Flash Player upgrade on my computer I noted that there  was also a Google download I would like to ask why this occurred? Does any one have an answer regarding this occurance.

    There has indeed been a lot of discussion going on about that subject, and I think everything has been said about it.  Nothing more that can be added.

  • Why did you ruin the perfect phone with an update to Lollipop? It wasn't broken---why did you feel the need to "fix" it?

    The S5 was PERFECT until Lollipop installed. Now? I have no end of glitches and it drains my battery much faster. What is the obsession that companies have with "improving" something when, in fact, they rarely do? When my last phone went to Kit Kat it was, essentially, a paperweight which is why I switched to the S5. I HATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! iPhones but at least you only have to deal with the update nightmare once a year with them. STOP! Or at the very least, make it an option. If people are happy with the OS they have...leave us alone!

    I agree. Verizon and Samsung both blamed each other and then they blamed Google.  In my eyes, shame on all of them for releasing and rolling out an update that clearly wasn't ready, nor was it properly beta-tested by ANY of the companies.  It's completely preposterous in this day and age to release a product of such subpar standard! I've worked for engineering companies where anything happening like this (even HALF as bad) would result in heads rolling (immediate job loss). Everyone I know that updated to lollipop is suffering

  • Apple why did you take the Sites folder with my website in it? Nobody helps!

    Since upgrading to Mavericks I lost my local website folder that used to be in the Sites folder!
    Error: Can't connect, check your info! Oh Apple why did you take it? "H E L P  P L E A S E!"

    Thank you Barney-15E
    I have no clue why this is or why I am getting this error in Mavericks. All I have is a local website folder in the Sites folder using Dreamweaver CS4 to update my files, working perfect on my other drive running 10.6.8 . Why I cant update and get the error above is the reason I am posting here. (and several other spots)
    You said:
    "First off, FTP is disabled in Mavericks, which is why you likely cannot FTP into your local Mac--why are you ftp'ing to the Mac you are working on?"
    You said:
    "Your Sites folder is in your Home folder. However, if you created it somewhere else, you'll have to figure that out."
    When I say my Sites folder is not in my Home folder you can bank on it. No I never changed any folders in there.

  • Why would I have to download latest verison adobe flash player twice in one day when I already had?

I downloaded and I still had the same message well I downloaded again but I should have never had to download it all since it was already oin my computer now there are problems with the game and at the bottom of the screen I see
    on occaison the abode flash sign flash or perhaps flicker once or twice and this it.  Since I downloaded it twice abode had been crashing I get this picture of a plug in unplugged and a line above that says that I have to reloaded the game.   So can someone please tell me why I had to download abode flash player twice in one day when I already had it and 2 why it is now causing the game I have been playing for a couple weeks before I downloaded twice to start sicking and sometimes crashing.     Please help

       Should uninstall waterfox and adobe flash player then reinstall?  I like waterfox better than google chrome.

    You write "download" about a dozen times, but did you also install it?

  • Why the Apple products does not work with Adobe flash player?

    Could be better if the Apple products work with Adobe Flash Player, I know that Steve does not like to work with them, but I think will be necessary soon.

    From Adobe's own site:
    *** NOTE: FLASH PLAYER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED FOR NEW DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS. FLASH PLAYER WILL NOT BE SUPPORTED ON ANY ANDROID VERSION BEYOND ANDROID 4.0.x ***
    While Flash Player remains on Google Play for installation on Android devices that are certified by the manufacturer, installing Flash Player on an uncertified device may result in unexpected behavior and can potentially destabilize your device. A list of certified devices can be found at http://www.adobe.com/go/certifieddevices. Flash Player WILL NOT be supported on any device shipped with or upgraded to an Android version beyond Android 4.0.x
    Further comments on what is the case on Android devices is irrelevant. Adobe has dropped further development of Flash for mobile devices and Apple has made no indications that they have any plans to do so themselves, so it is highly unlikely that there will ever be a native Flash player for any iOS device.
    'nuff said on the matter. Regards.

  • I am having problems with viewing flash plugins on websites. it seems that the firefox 5 is inlarging the flash piece thus skuing the image and inabling features of the flash object itself.

    most important issues i am having are the following are as follows:
    1) on www.alliedelec.com the main image in the flash rotating banner is skued from being enlarged.
    2)http://www.alliedelec.com/eaton-control-automation/ on the bottom of the page there is a flash video player which is missing the controlbar at the bottom and cutting off the video previews on the side due to the flash oject being enlarged.
    i have checked this in older versions of firefox and other browsers and ff5 is the only browser which is having an issue and one in need fixed asap.
    Please Help!!!!

    No problems here on Linux with the Flash objects on both pages.<br />
    I see the control bar.
    Make sure that you aren't zooming anything on that page.

  • Freezing firefox (bon echo) with 32bit flash plugin

    Hello all,
      I've installed on my arch64 the 32bit flash plugin for firefox according to arch wiki pages. It works in a sense it does not crash. Nevertheless, it freezes for several seconds whenever opening a web page with flash animation.
      If firefox started from terminal, it reports errors about libraries - like found that and that library, which should be 32bit, but it is 64bit and vice versa.
      Can I somehow solve the problem by setting up LD_LIBRARY_PATH or other environment variable just for the firefox?
      Thanks
        Dusan

    If you want a full 32-bit-based browser that will work with the flash and java plugins natively, see bin32-swiftfox-prescott or bin32-swiftfox-athlon64 for the Core2 or Athlon64 processors, respectively.  If you want java, then search for the 'lib32-jdk' package.  You'll have to link the java plugin yourself:
    # ln -s /opt/java32/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so /opt/swiftfox/plugins/
    I originally created these packages because I need "Java WebStart" for work, and it only comes in the 32-bit JRE/JDK.  It all works very well for me!
    Good luck!

  • Anyone else having problems with Adobe Flash Plugin Crashing on them?

    Ok. Me, along with several other people have been dealing with Adobe, regarding their Flash Plugin constantly crashing. The Plugin Container works well on Firefox, but because Adobe crashes alot, It runs up the CPU usage on the Plugin container which slows the browser down. Alot of us believe that the problem lies with Adobe's software, but so far no one at Adobe is willing to fess up and state that is the fact. So I am coming here to see if anyone has any answers that might help get Adobe's head out of their 3rd point of contact. The Problem is the Plugin crashes on any browser and any combination of Windows. Everything is updated on Firefox. Adobe plugin is updated along with other key software that is currently updated. Adobe still crashes. Anyone have any valid suggestions or ideas what could be causing this? I would like to have something that I can go back to Adobe with and give them and tell them where to start. I want this mess fixed. Its annoying as hell.

    They are looking into it, but they are moving incredibly slow. Meanwhile, They are getting unhappy customers who are trying to tweak their browsers in such a way to force Adobe to work for them so they can do what they need. I even had to lower the Plugin Containers priority setting to low so it doesn't hog the CPU so I can do what I need, If barely. Its just frustrating and I am doing what I can to come up with something I can hand Adobe and say Here! Now fix it. lol

  • Problem with Adobe Flash (plugin has crashed). Have updated, uninstalled etc.

    Recently I keep getting the Adobel Flash plugin has crashed message. Not aware I have changed any programs or software.
    I have ensured every thing in uptodate. Tried uninstalling and re-downloading. No success.
    Read your help page.
    Are there suitable alternatives to Adobe or is this limited by the websites that use Adobe?

    I am adding screen shot of Yahoo messenger to my previous question. Though it is in Japanese but there is a little English too which will be helpful to those who could not read Japanese.

  • Why can't I play downloaded podcasts with WiFi and Cell Data turned off?

    I'm on a limited data plan and want to ensure I'm not downloading or streaming podcasts when I'm not on WiFi.  It appears I have several podcasts downloaded (Blue Dot next to the title) but I'm not sure.... When I turn off WiFi and Cell Data, the podcasts grey out and are unable to play.  Why would I not be able to play a downloaded podcast while I'm off the network (both WiFi and Cell data)?

    Update....  Apparently the blue dot just indicates whether or not you've listened to the particular podcast or not, regardless of it's download status.  After playing with the app more, it also appears that many podcasts are not downloading to the device as I thought.  When I turn on Airplane mode, many podcasts are not playable (greyed out) but some that I have already listened to are playable.  I'm assuming the podcasts that are playable when on airplane mode are the only ones that are actually downloaded to the device (this makes sense doesn't it?).  So now my question is, "why aren't these podcasts being downloaded after I press the download button?".   They seem to play OK in streaming mode, either from WiFi or Cell Network.  Any insights?
    Thanks.

  • How to factory default reset gen 3 with fast flashing led

    After the holiday power outages here in NH, I find my Apple TV (3rd gen) with a fast blinking LED. Tried to connect via USB directly to my Mac Mini with Yosemite 10.10.1 and nothing...
    iTunes does not show the device. Tried several USB cables.
    Any suggestions?

    Did you make sure to follow the steps exactly (disconnect all cables, connect micro usb, reconnect power)?
