Possibly OT --- Adobe flash player; how to get it to run?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




People keep sending me links to videos and then when I click on them Firefox says that the video won't play since I don't have flash installed. But then when I click on the installer I (eventually) get messages to the effect that the required package
is already installed.

If I click on Tools -> Addons -> Plugins I get messages to the effect that I don't "have any plugins of this type installed". (***WHAT*** <expletive deleted> type?
I never mentioned any "type"!!!

I've googled around quite a bit and any suggestion that I've found was of no use whatever. (I.e. I keep getting the same message that I don't have flash installed.)

WTF do I have to do? Is the problem the fact that I am still running Fedora 17? (I have not upgraded since everything except the flash business seems to be running smoothly, and I don't want to get into an incomprehensible upgrade hassle unless
I absolutely have to.)

Grateful for any suggestions and/or advice.

    cheers,

    Rolf Turner
