    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Why does Flash player not work on samsung galaxy tablets?

    Hello, I am wondering why they do not have flash player for samsung galaxy tab 3? I just recently got the 8.0 sized one and it has great features,but no flash player? To have an up to date electronic device,and older electronic devices carry it,but you won't put it on new devices? Is there a way to get it to work or download it? It has stopped me from viewing many different things on my tablet unfortunately and this may cause me to return it.

    Android dropped all support for Flash last year (June 2012).
    Going back to 2006, when Apple released the first iPhone and iOS 1, Steve Jobs was insistent that it be made incompatible with Flash Player because (in his words) playing Flash content is processor consumptive and kills batteries, and well as shortening battery life in mobile devices. Android came along a little while later, but their reason for droppiong Flash last year was the same.
    Adobe continued developing "security updates" for the Flash Player that worked with older versions of Android, but even that ended in September of this year. Adobe will not continue development of a product for an incompatible format.
    Android recommends either "Dolphin" or "Puffin" browser from the GooglePlay store (both are free). They use "server side" technology to play Flash content without taxing your tablet or phone's processor.

  • Flash player not working with Firefox 5

    Hi all:
    I have been having problems with my Firefox 5 (also was happening with 4) and the Flash Player (newest and previous versions also). Basically, whenever I open a page with flash content, Firefox gets frozen and "not responding" appears on the top bar.After some time, it comes back
    I've tried reinstalling Firefox and Flash Player (also formatting laptop - Windows 7) and this is still happening.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    You might as well stop wasting your time. The problem seems to be centered around FireFox (since Adobe Flash seems to work fine with IE and Chrome).  After FireFox begin running Flash as a separate process, it no longer retains preset volume settings for Flash, instead, each new FireFox window resets it to max volume. As a result, several times I've had my ears blasted (this can lead to hearing loss and/or damaged audio equipment). This only happens with newer versions of Flash. Consequently, I no longer use the latest versions in FireFox. I'm thinking about totally dropping FireFox and moving completely to Chrome. Looks like neither Adobe or FireFox are gonna budge to fix the problem.

  • Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

    Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

    Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

  • Flash Player not working with IE but with Firefox

    When I go to any site <youtube.mtv,break> to view videos with IE8 it says I need to d/l the newest version of the Flash Player.  I have done this countless times with no luck.  The flash player works with Firefox on any site.  I have went through the options in the IE tools like the troubleshooting area said and made sure all the appropriate settings were turned on and it seems they are.  Anyone else have this problem and they resolved it or head me in the right direction?  Thanks!

  • Flash Player not working with Vista in Firefox

    I try to install Flash Player and Firefox allows me to download it, but I have no idea where or if it is saved.  The only place that I can see it is in the download folder.  Will Flash Player 10 work on my computer since I have Vista?  Help please!!

    When you download anything, Firefox will give you two pop-ups
    Click on 'Save File' here.  Next you will be asked where to save the file to
    Navigate to the location where you want to save the file (e.g. My Download Files, or Desktop), and click 'Save'.
    When the download is complete, exit Firefox, then run the downloaded file from where you saved it.

  • Flash Player not working in Firefox

    Suddenly Firefox will not play flash player content called
    when I play games online. It worked fine a few days ago.
    When I click on the link, it opens the game page, but where
    the game should appear, I see a blank black box. When I click on
    the "Play online game" link I also get a large empty black box.
    I am running Windows XP on an HP Pavilion ze2315us laptop. I
    recently installed trial version of Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro.
    In efforts to fix the problem I tried the following:
    Removed adblocker addresses that might conflict.
    Checked blocked sites
    Removed and reinstalled Flash Player.
    Reinstalled Firefox.
    Set folder options to use Firefox to open SWF files
    All to no avail.
    I tried the web site in IE. Had to download and install Flash
    Player again but it works fine in IE.
    Afterwards, it still did not work in Firefox.
    Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    When I install flash player all browsers crash or if I try to use them with anything that needs flash player, i.e. YouTube, etc. The only way I can use my browsers if I uninstall flash player.
    Yes, I've tried using the latest adobe update, it does not work. Yes, I've tried uninstalling and re-installing, it does not work. I'm at loss right now and puzzled, because I've encountered this issue in the past, but never this severe.
    Can someone help me please ???

  • Flash player not working with all programs

    Hi, I'm having trouble with flash player not being recognized by certain player apps... On Facebook when there is a video showing on my newsfeed it just shows three little lines pulsing in the middle but it dosen't play. Now, I can go to the page where the video is and play it but not on my news feed. Also I cannot play Pandora as it tells me I need the latest flash player which I know that I have but it isn't recognizing it. I have uninstalled flash player, reinstalled it .. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it .. I have also refreshed Firefox and it still dosen't work with those particular applications.. I have also gone to plugins and made sure that it shows that it's enabled and all the players are.. I have adobe flash and shockwave installed.. One thing that is curious though is that when I check to see if my flashplayers are updated in my plugins it comes up and tells me that Shockwave is vulnerable and needs to be updated but when I click on it and update it ... It shows that it worked but then it dosen't reflect that in my plugin update... HELP PLZ !! :)

    Thank you so much for your help!!! Most appreciative!!! :)
