| I have been trying for a couple of days to get Adobe Flash Player installed on my Nexus 7 tablet mainly without success as Google does not support it. Well after much searching and after Ken told me about Dolphin Browser I have managed it but you have to instal Dolphin Jetpack as well and now I have flash player after downloading the two Dolphin items. Ken (and a nice lady at PC World) | |

| Adobe are no longer supporting flash player for mobile devices that's why you can't install it yourself now, you can get old of the old files but they are no use in modern browsers, thats why you have to find a browser that supports it, they will have modified it to work on their browser. Dare say the HTC one's browser supports flash without installing anything else Flash "should" be a thing of the past soon _________________ Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

Strange that Ken as the "nice lady from google" that was instore in Liverpool said that there will be an update in Feb/Mar 2014 which will install Flash on tablets and iPhones. We did try puffin and photon instore but it did not work Dolphin did so we stuck to that. | |

| I won't hold my breath on that one, Chrome has never supported it on mobile version, can't see how they will since Adobe stopped supporting it over a year ago and finally removed the last version. _________________ Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| You need to get a job at Google mate, I found the people at Currys/PCworld Southport near useless and it was only when I spoke too the "nice lady at Google" in Liverpool that I got anywhere, Motor-homers would load properly and I could not receive email from the site until she sorted it all out. | |

| Sounds like the tablet just needed to know what to do when you pressed a link, that was nothing to do with flash, the only flash content we have are the decorations _________________ Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| Two more flash players are. Photon and iSwifter Which I use on iPad to watch the footie, I put a post on a while back that Frank liked from memory I agree with Ken that they say Flash is on its way out but you never know. By the way some flash players you need to learn how to use them as it is not always just open a flash program and it's starts | |

| Oooooh lucky you Bob.... I've had my nexus 7 since March and luv it... Pretty easy to use.... I can't help you with the flash player as I haven't needed it.. I've found that as the nexus is pure google that its better to use Google apps... Especially chrome & drive.... If you need any help Bob, just ask ...... Can't guarantee I'll know though !!!!! | |
