Is Adobe Connect compatible with a Google Chromebook? I do not see the Adobe Connect app or extension in the Chrome Web Store.

Because of the documented incompatibility issues between the Chrome browser and Adobe Connect, I wonder how well it would work? Chrome browser incompatibility with Connect Add-in

That was an issue with launching the Add-in for Connect, which isn't available on the Chromebook platform anyhow. So that is a non-issue. Additionally, that issue has been resolved. I've used Chrome for quite a while now with the built in Flash Player without any issue of launching the add-in.

I'm guessing that leland.hover was able to join the room and there were no issues, since we didn't hear back.

I'm guessing, that, like me, he just didn't use his Chromebook for visiting the room.

I'm trying to reach AWS training, and allowed an hour ahead of time to test my access.
If I only tried a few minutes before meeting time, I would try a little and then move to a different computer.

Connect is compatiable with the Chromebook, since it just uses the Flash player in your web browser (Chrome). However, the add-in is not available for it so you won't be able to share your screen or upload a PPTX file. Everything else should work.

How do initiate an Adobe Connect session without the add-in on Chromebook? I see no documentation for this situation.

Since Adobe Connect is web based, all you need to do is distribute the URL for your room to the attendees. They can then join the room using any web browser that supports Flash (Chrome, FireFox, IE, Safari, Opera, etc.).

Feel free to test here: http://realeyesconnect.adobeconnect.com/openroom. Just join the room as a guest and you should access it in your browser. It won't be the most interesting room, but you should be able to access it.


I felt free to visit that page.

It looks like every other adobe connect room.

Adobe Connect requires Flash Player 11.2 or above.
