Flash Player for MacOS 10.15 Catalina

[Jeff A Johnson]

I just upgraded to MacOS 10.15 Catalina.  Adobe Flash doesn't seem to work now.  I went to Adobe.com to upgrade Flash, and found only versions that say they work with MacOS 10.14.  Is there a a Flash for 10.15?

You probably need to re-enable Flash Player in Safari:

I am having same issue after downloading MAC OS Catalina.  Here is the message I get:

"About the transition to 64-bit technology and how it affects 32-bit apps.

Apple began transitioning to 64-bit hardware and software technology for Mac over a decade ago, and all modern Macs now include powerful 64-bit processors that can run advanced 64-bit apps. These apps can access dramatically more memory, enable faster system performance, and take advantage of technologies that define today's Mac experience, 

Apple has been working with developers to transition their apps, and in 2018 Apple informed them that macOS Mojave would be the last version of macOS to run 32-bit apps. 

Apple's transition to 64-bit technology is now complete. Starting with mac OS Catalina 32-bit apps are no longer compatible with macOS. If you have a 32-bit app, please check with the app develper for a 64-bit version."

ME: So it is up to Adobe to update its acrobat reader to be compatable with Catalina but they have not!!!!!

And since Adobe Flash player is going away by the end of 2020, they won't.

Flash Player has supported 64-bit on Mac for quite some time.  The issue reported by @bewilderedinRiverside is for Acrobat Reader, not Flash Player.

For issues with Acrobat Reader, please post to the Acrobat Reader community forum.  You're posting to the Flash Player community, which is unrelated to Reader issues.
