    I have the same issue.  I think that Flash is behaving differently on Mac than on Windows.  I used the planner in the store today on Windows and now I'm at home using Mac and it doesn't work.  I get the same result you have in your screenshot.

    I'm on a 13" MacBook Pro (2016 with USB-C) with Mac OS X Mojave.

    What lets you think that this is an Adobe problem and not an Ikea one?

    I would ask Ikea to fix their site.

    Well, because I have tried on other laptops and it works. I didnt say it’s an Adobe problem, I just said it is not working on my Mac. Mac may be the problem,  I have no idea actually.

    But i know that ikea is not the problem.

    I will see what I can do about it, thanks

    What other computers worked? Windows? You need to know that support for flash is fading. I would really urge Ikea to choose a different system.

    And Apple is very hostile to Flash and browser makers do not like flash neither. All have announced to shred support for flash.

    Unfortunately I think your computer does not support flash.
