Adobe Flash Player For Mac Did Not Activate After Install

How to I turn on Flash Player? When I go to the download site for Adobe the banner says that I have flash installed. Then I go to a website that I know has flash and it says “This site requires that you have flash player.” I have already tried re-formatting to no help.

Reformatting sure seems like overkill for a problem like this. Reformatting’s a pretty major step, and not something I’d recommend without investigating things deeply. I’m not sure what might be the problem in your specific case, but I can tell you this: there’s at least one excruciatingly simple reason that Flash might not show up on many web sites, even though you’ve installed it.

Flash

In a word: JavaScript. Become a and go ad-free! What most sites don’t tell you is that yes, you need Flash installed, but you also need JavaScript enabled. This might not be true for all sites, but it’s certainly true for the vast majority using Flash that I visit.

Sometimes IT departments clone Office installations, and everyone winds up with the same name or no name at all. Word can’t detect different users if two or more people have the same name in the User Information preferences. Track changes in word for mac 2008.

In my case, I run the FireFox extension “NoScript” which disables Javascript on all sites, except for those that I explicitly allow. So each time I visit a new site that uses Flash, I get the message “You must install Flash”, when in fact all I need to do is tell NoScript to enable Javascript. Doing that the page and Flash video work just fine. In most cases, Javascript is enabled by default.

But just in case, let’s review how you turn on Javascript in IE7 and in FireFox. Enabling Javascript in IE7 On the Tools menu, click Internet Options, and then click on the Security tab. This dialog should result: Click on Custom Level. In the resulting dialog scroll down until you see Active Scripting: Make sure that Active Scripting is set to Enable. Enabling Javascript in FireFox Click on the Tools menu, and then the Options menu item.

I did go over the list of possible matches for this question and found TEST for the flash player on the adobe site. It said it is not turned on but it is done in settings as directed by the support article for both adobe and MS/windows10.
