Adobe won't allow download of flash player 11 to my country-I'm in MI! Luk49ov Aug 30, 2012, 5:22 PM I just purchased a refurbished Asus TF101 B1, loaded with Android 4.0.3. Even if you could, Adobe doesn't have a flash plugin that is compatible with Safari on the iPhone. If/when Adobe produces a flash plugin that is compatible with Safari on the iPhone that meets Apple's approval, it will probably be included with a firmware update or made available via the iTunes app store as an optional install.

Clicking the 'Download' link at the end of this guide automatically takes you to the Flash download page.

Certain services offered on the BBC website such as audio, video, animations and games require specific additional third party software (called 'plug-ins'). You may have such software already loaded onto your computer. If you do not then, should you wish to use these BBC services, you will need to licence and download such software from a third party software company.

We will direct you to the relevant pages of the software company website. The website will give a set of instructions that you will need to follow in order to download the plug-in. In particular you will be asked by the software company to agree to its terms and conditions of licence. Any such agreement is between you and the software company and the BBC does not accept any liability in relation either to the download or to the use of the plug-in.

The BBC does not use any plug-in that is not available FREE OF CHARGE. However most software companies will also offer versions of their plug-ins that require payment. We will always try to direct you to the free download pages of the software company site. You may of course choose to licence paid-for software from the third party. However if you only want to download the free plug-in you should not be asked for, nor give, any credit card or other payment details.

Finally, it is likely that you will be asked to enter personal details (name, address etc.) as part of the download process. If you do enter such information then it will be held by the software company subject to the Data Protection Act and other relevant privacy legislation. The company should therefore inform you what it intends to do with your data, and may direct you to its Privacy Policy. Please note that you will be submitting the data to the third party software company and not to the BBC and so the use of the data will NOT be covered by the BBC Privacy Policy.

Although the BBC uses third party plug-ins in order to provide the best possible web service, it does not endorse any third party software. If you choose to enter into an agreement with the third party and download the plug-in you do so at you own risk.

There are still many websites that have embedded content created on the Adobe Flash platform, such as videos, animations and games, and in order to view or play them, you need to install Adobe Flash Player or the plugin. If you’re using a Mac and you’re browsing the internet with Safari, it’s mandatory to install the software, because otherwise, you won’t be able to run SWF files. Below, we’ll tell you how you can install the plugin on safari for Mac.

You will need to head to Adobe’s official page and look for the Flash plugin. Click on the “Download” button, then on “Agree and install now” and you will be notified through a window that your download should start automatically. The program will start downloading and you will wait a few minutes until the process will complete.

Now you will install the Flash Player by double-clicking the installer icon and then you’ll see a dialog box that will inform you about the application that you’ve downloaded. You will click on “Open” and when the License Agreement will appear, you will click the “I have read and agree to the terms of the license agreement” tick box. You will be required to enter your username and password that you’ve set for your Mac and then you’ll click “OK”.
