Problem with Flash Player(router)

Report · Sep 09, 2013

Hi all. I have some problem with flash player, i tried to reinstall sometimes but nothing go right. in some sites if i access with Chrome,Firefox or Internet Explorer the site said me this :"To view this page ensure that Adobe Flash Player version 11.1.0 or greater is installed." But i have the last version.I think the problem is in the router because if i try to access in this site with my phone if i'm in 3g/h+ i can upload the entire site but if i'm in wifi i read the same message of the pc. Then the problem is in the router .It's possible than the router block adobe, but why youtube is perfect?

I use Windows7 64bit and Android 4.3(yes no more update for this version )

Than for the help

There IS NO SUCH THING as a Flash blocker for ANY router. Routers enable CONNECTIVITY, not software.

You mention that your phone is Android 4.3. Well, Android DOESN'T use Flash anymore, so you're probably seeing HTML5 video with it and THAT'S why it works and the PC doesn't.

Uninstall ALL Flash Player plugins using your Control Panel>Programs and Features>Uninstall a Program.

Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by clicking one of the following links.

Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)

Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

Save them to your downloads folder. Close ALL browser windows.

Run the installer(s)

The following is from Samsung Support (07/31/2013):

"Beginning August 15, 2012 we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th, 2012."

And from Kindle Support (07/31/2013):

"The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 1st Generation supports some, but not all, versions of Flash. Adobe Flash is pre-installed on a 1st Generation Kindle Fire and is disabled by default.

If you see a message to install Flash while using your Kindle Fire, this means that the content you're attempting to view uses Flash. If you want to view the content, you'll need to enable Flash through the Silk settings menu.

If a web page suffers from slow performance due to Flash, or you're unable to view a web page with Flash enabled, we recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a Flash-heavy website to see if that solves your problem:

Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps library on your Kindle Fire, for availability.

The Amazon Silk web browser on Kindle Fire 2nd Generation, Kindle Fire HD 7", and Kindle Fire HD 8.9" doesn't support Flash.

Some sites use alternative web technologies to Flash in their mobile versions. We recommend switching to mobile view when browsing a website with Flash content to see if that solves your problem:

Some popular websites may also have an app available. Check Amazon Appstore, accessible through the Apps or Games library on your Kindle Fire, for availability."

I didn't make that up. That was copied from emails from Amazon and Samsung. If you're running Flash Player on an Android device, it's either: nearly two years old, or you've got a third party "hack" to allow it to run.
