how to get Adobe flash to work on Android tablets

It works with most browsers other than Chrome. Adobe Flash has been pulled from Play Store though so you have to sideload it. Safest place to get it is Adobe's archive. Hopefuly someone can post a link :thumbup:

All you have to do is open settings, got to security, and enable the ability to install apps from unknown sources. Then go to your download folder and install flash.
 
In firefox settings, make sure plug-ins is set to Enable or Touch To Play uploadfromtaptalk1369533191836.jpg

Sorry for the elementary questions, but could you please explain this step by step ? I cannot find a download for the flash for Firefox.
 
I could upload it to a file sharing site and post the link but its really bad practice to post or download from a direct link on a forum because it could contain anything.
If you feel that you trust me then enable Unknown Sources in Security settings and ill pm you a link if you want (that you download and install at your own risk) or ill see if i can find a link to it from the Adobe site later. Let me know mate :thumbup:

That would be great.! Thank you so much for helping me!
 
Thanks Chan mate. I just uploaded the file (from same source) to Dropbox to PM to you OP but definately use Chan's link because its from a trusted, tracable source :thumbup:

Just remember for future referance that when you activate Unknown Sources and install an .apk file, it could contain ANYTHING. im a nice guy but if people on other sites/forums offer you a direct download link (like i was about to PM you) that you do it at completely your own risk. Cant stress that enough lol :thumbup:
Let us know if you have problems with installation but once the file downloads, it should ask if you wana install it, tap YES and thats it, flash should work :)

EDIT: Chans link is a direct download but id say he's a trusted member :)
 
Thank you so much! I downloaded it to Firefox and installed it. But I am unable to see video on Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Am I doing something wrong?

I really appreciate your help. I would like to ditch my ipad if I can get the note 8 to work.
 
Now that I have the video working, I am trying to get my electronic medical records working. All works but I need a pdf browser plug in to work for any browser. Any suggestions?
 
I cant help with PDF but for flash, i always keep a few browsers installed because some that work with some sites, dont work with others and vice-versa, you end up learning which work with what :thumbup:
