Re: Adobe Flash Player Square 64 Bit Download
Hercules Montero
I don't know how to proceed. It won't work on Facebook neither Chromium...From time to time it shows a yellow square with a "X" in it with following message instead of this above: "Failed to load libpepflashplayer.so".It's very annoying. How can I wipe all this players from my machine and begin from zero?
I am a Physics teacher. I was using virtual lab simulation to teach Physics experiments which required adobe flash player. Now few days back I got a popup asking to uninstall Adobe flash player as it will no longer be supported after 31st December 2020. I did a bit of survey and found that if website makes the content compatible with html5 it will run. But what will happen to sites which wont update?
Here is the link of simulation which needs adobe flash player:
=1&brch=281&sim=1524&cnt=4
P.S. I always find this page by Googling "troubleshoot flash player" (minus the quotes), and it is the first link. I can never seem to find it directly otherwise. This method does not require any permission.
Since you have stated that this is the first time you have ever used ubuntu. i would suggest that you install the package ubuntu-restricted-extras, this includes lots of useful stuff like adobe flash and codecs and MS fonts etc.
Open your Firefox and go to Youtube. Click on any video. Definitely it won't play because you don't have any flash player installed. But Firefox will promote you to install missing plug-in at the top. Simply click on it and follow the procedure. After that your video will start to play. Make sure you have latest Firefox browser installed.
Also start firefox from the command line, you might see errors. Example is running a x86 flash player in an x64 browser(not os) and vice versa. From the command line (%> firefox) you should see the plugin initialization log lines. (maybe try this one first :P)
Also anything in /usr/lib/... is owned by root so you would have to sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugin where .../firefox/plugin points to the location of the firefox plugin directory.
have a new Acer Aspire laptop on Windows 8.1, running the latest Firefox as default browser. On trying to open Al Jazeera in Firefox I get a window that says I need to download Adobe Flash Player, screenshot 2.I click on that and get the Adobe download page, screenshot 3. I click on install now and get the prompt to save install_flashplayer, screenshot 4. I click on save file and then go to my downloads folder and it has the installer icon there, screenshot 5. However when I then double click on it nothing more happens. A window headed Adobe Flash Player Installer with no content appears, screenshot 1.And nothing more happens.However if I try and download Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer I get a message that it is integrated with Internet Explorer in Windows 8, screenshot 6. Please advise.
