Adobe Flash Player is a runtime that executes and displays content from a provided SWF file, although it has no in-built features to modify the SWF file at runtime. It can execute software written in the ActionScript programming language which enables the runtime manipulation of text, data, vector graphics, raster graphics, sound, and video. The player can also access certain connected hardware devices, including the web cameras and microphones, after permission for the same has been granted by the user.
Until version 10 of the Flash player, there was no support for GPU acceleration. Version 10 added a limited form of support for shaders on materials in the form of the Pixel Bender API, but still did not have GPU-accelerated 3D vertex processing.[41] A significant change came in version 11, which added a new low-level API called Stage3D (initially codenamed Molehill), which provides full GPU acceleration, similar to WebGL.[42][43] (The partial support for GPU acceleration in Pixel Bender was completely removed in Flash 11.8, resulting in the disruption of some projects like MIT's Scratch, which lacked the manpower to recode their applications quickly enough.[44][45])

Version 10 can be run under Windows 98/Me using KernelEx.[89] HP offered Version 6 of the player for HP-UX,[90] while Innotek GmbH offered versions 4 and 5 for OS/2.[91] Other versions of the player have been available at some point for BeOS.[citation needed]
Among other devices, LeapFrog Enterprises provides Flash Player with their Leapster Multimedia Learning System and extended the Flash Player with touch-screen support.[104] Version 9 was the most recent version available for the Linux/ARM-based Nokia 770/N800/N810 Internet tablets running Maemo OS2008.[90] Other versions of the player have been available at some point for Symbian OS and Palm OS.[105] The Kodak Easyshare One includes Flash Player.[106]
Adobe has partnered with Harman to support enterprise Flash Player users until at least 2023.[146][147] The Harman Flash player variant is labeled as version 50.x, to avoid confusion with other variants.[78]
Hi, I've tried to download several dmg files, because I wanted to install some programs, but everytime I try to open or install the dmg file, Adobe flash player pops up asking for installation, so I did. I've tried to install\open the dmg file again, but Flash player keeps asking for installation over and over, even If I already did that. This happens for almost every dmg file I've downloaded, what can I do to simply install dmg files without Flash player keeping to ask for an installation? I also tried to uninstall it and install it again many times, I rebooted my pc several times, I've tried to delete every flash player file, nothing seems to work.
Hi there everyone, I know this post os from a little while ago but I have been having the same problem. However the solution given below dosnt seem applicable to my situation and I am not sure if that was the correct solution for the OP? I have recently tried to install various .dmg's from what I belive to be trusted sites. One or two opened fine but the majority take me to a flash player installer page. There seems to be nothing other than the flash player installer even though the downloaede .dmg fine name is that of the software I was looking to install. I have looked at the solution given by 'TestScreenName' and gone through it step by step but I didnt find any malicous or unusual files on my computer. Nor do I get any flashplayer pop ups, or redirecting of browsers or anything else unusual. So I dont feel like my system is infected in anyway. I just can't open the majority of .dmg's as all they tuen into when I click on them is a flash player installer?
In general, you're better off setting everything to update automatically. You can then go through life assuming that any update notifications you get are bogus. This is actually what we strongly recommend, and it generally applies to anything tasked with handing untrusted communication (the operating system, your web browser, flash player, etc.). The inconvenience of something functional breaking because of an update pales in comparison to the pain of recovering from identity theft.
When i right clicked on that file to select open with... It shows many apps but i can't find my flash player! The flash player is working in my browser but i can't see it 'my computer' or my desktop but i can only see it in control panel!
I have just updated adobe flash player since my browser requested it and found that adobe has installed McAfee without me opting in to do so. I am furious about it, and can only refer to a previous discussion point copied in here. Why does Adobe do this it will drive customers away in their droves.
Many websites even have pop up notifications that specify the site will not function properly or to please disable ad blocker.
You're telling me that the team couldn't find a way to at least place a warning to turn of ad blocker? Or make an opt out option that isn't dependent on whether an ad blocker is on or not?
I only use flash because I have to. I stopped my subscription to the adobe suite because of poor quality updates, tons of bugs, and lack of affordable choice options. This makes me much less likely to ever return.
I never expected Adobe to sacrifice their brand image for McAfee. I unintentionally installed this garbage on my work machine thanks to this unethical opt-out process. I make every effort to only install software from reputable manufacturers on my work machine, and as far as I'm concerned, Adobe is no longer a reputable manufacturer. I will never install an Adobe product on any of my workstations again. Apple was right to kill flash off- its cancerous.
Frankly, I find this practice by Adobe INFURIATING and would dump flash player in an instant if I could find a viable alternative (Suggestions anyone?). I have not opted for automatic installation of updates because I can't find anything that guarantees that Adobe won't automatically install McAfee (or God knows what else) automatically.
When older content runs in a newer version of the player, and Flash Player needs you to make a decision about enforcing newer rules or not, you may see one of the following pop-up dialog boxes. These dialog boxes ask your permission before allowing the older SWF or FLV content to communicate with other locations on the Internet:
Has anyone tested this yet? Here are some questions I have about this:
Does this block flash content from running in browsers? If not, how would I go about doing that?
Does this script need to be run on a continual basis? It seems like its based on the logged in user so it should run continually whenever a new user/different user is logged in? Maybe have it set to run "Once per user"?
Anyone have anything to report about their experiences with this?

With no Flash player installed, Apps like Safari will not run any Flash content. However Google Chrome has an inbuilt extension for running flash content, for us this is not turned on by default so Chrome will ask each time to run the extension. If you are running Google admin to manage your google accounts, you can use that to stop the extension from in there.
does anyone know if the rtroutron adobe flash player uninstall script is 100% silent? should the adobe flash player popup appear if a user is logged in at the time the script runs? logged in on another test laptop to see if this popup happens again .
I have ubuntu 12.04 64bit using Google Chrome. I had chromium from the app center then today amazon prime video stopped working. It told me to update Flash. So I uninstalled chromium and installed Google Chrome. Didn't work. Then I downloaded flash for ubuntu via apt. That one gave me a "flash version isn't supported" message. The flash version was 11.
On my 10.04 system, I ran Synaptic Package Manager, searched for flash and found a package called flashplugin-installer version 11.2.202.238ubuntu0.10.04.1. Picking it for installation caused it to remove the earlier version of flash plugin that was for 64bit. However, this solved the issue for me. I can now play prime instant videos.
Sometimes when flash gets automatically updated, the newer version doesn't work for me like my previous one had. I couldn't find an easy way to downgrade, but here is one way that works for me when I use firefox:
Another common problem with Flash, especially in 12.04, is "Gnash" that little bugger caused me numerous problems with flash. Just completely remove Gnash, and then download the flash plug-in from Adobe or the "Software centre".
For those whom don't know, removes Gnash and the configurations (with purge) then installs the latest version of flash. You may need to reboot afterwards (something I don't do very often if i'm honest).
Chrome has Flash support built into the browser. This is not like how Firefox uses flashplugin-installer/flashplugin-nonfree or adobe-flashplugin (which are separate from the browser, but utilized by the browser). The Ubunbu packaged plugin can use the HAL, whereas the built in plugin to chrome cannot.
I am an Ubuntu newbie and tried various work arounds to do with flash not being installed, or not having an up to date version of chrome or chromium etc to get amazon music to work in Chrome and Chromium. In the end went to firefox and went to add ons> plug ins> ... set shockwave flash to always activate and now its running fine.
Go to your Google chrome Add-on and search for adobe flash for Google chrome and install the right one for your browser. I think it has something to do with your browser. Have you tried it in other browser like Firefox?
The standalone flashplayer takes no arguments other than a .swf file when you launch it from the command line. I need the player to go full screen, no window borders and such. This can be accomplished by hitting ctrl+f once the program has started. I want to do this programmatically as I need it to launch into full screen without any human interaction.
