Debian :: Installing Adobe Flash Player 10 In Freespire
Feb 16, 2010
I am a complete beginner but I have installed Freespire on a PC of mine. Everything works okay: BBC iPlayer, You Tube, Internet Radio except Deezer which, it seems, requires the installation of Adobe Flash Player 10. I've followed the recommendations of countless articles in the Internet without success and my head is now spinning. For example there seem to be three input screens for instructions: Shell, Linux Console and Root Shell. I don't even know which one I should be using. Frequently my failed efforts result in a message saying unknown file and directory. When I download Adobe tar.gz I can't see where it's going. I tried extracting to the Desktop and that produces a file ending in .so. But what ever I do nothing works.

i am a proud newbie user of debian linux. the desktop i use is xfce. i have iceweasel as the web browser. it cannot access flash content like videos videos and some others because the adobe flash plugin is not installed. i've done the following without success. i downloaded flash_player_10_linux.tar from adobe's site, unpacked it to get libflashplayer.so. but under /usr/lib/iceweasel, there is no plugins folder to put it in. there is, however, a broken link called plugins. then i created a plugins folder under home/myaccount/.mozilla and pasted the libflashplayer.so file over there. i restarted iceweasel, but it cannot still detect flash content.
then i ran apt-get install of jre and downloaded all java packages. however, while installation it gave an error saying, "cannot overwrite iceweasel/plugins". this came most probably because as mentioned earlier there is no plugins folder under iceweasel to begin with. on running the about : plugins command, i get "no plugins installed". i then deleted the plugins folder from .mozilla and directly pasted the libflashplayer.so file under usr/lib/iceweasel (since it contained many other .so files). how to enable iceweasel to enable the adobe flashplayer plugin.

I just installed Fedora 11 on my Sony Vaio laptop. I couldn't stand Windows Vista any longer. I installed Fedora 11 just fine with no issues. But I seem to be having trouble installing programs such as Adobe Flash Player, Reader, Limewire, Java pluggin, etc. Everytime I try to install these, it says for example "Could not display "/home/blackout87gn/Download/jre-6u16-linux-i586-rpm.bin". This was for the Java file I downloaded. I made sure that all these files I downloaded were for Linux. So being the newb that I am, can someone point me in the right direction on how to install these applications? Also what does .rpm .bin .deb and .tar.gz represent?

I installed the player from both the Add/Remove Applications and downloading with install when asked by Firefox, but neither option works. It shows as installed but Firefox keeps asking me to install it whenever it needs it.

Just a little question about installing the Adobe Flash Player. I downloaded the Flash Player library in tar.gz format directly from Adobe. I want to install it in the default plug-in directory for Opera, which is /usr/lib/opera/plugins. When I try to copy the file, I get an error saying that I do not have the sufficient permissions to copy a file to that directory. Does anyone know how to copy the file using the command line, using the SUDO command?

I'm on Slackware 13.0. I downloaded the tar file for Adobe flash player (install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz) to my /tmp.
But when I invoke "tar -xzvf install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz" all I get is a file libflashplayer.so in the same /tmp directory.
I was expecting a folder with the same name and more than the one file in it.

I have installed Fedora 15 on my Desktop. My desktop is a 64-bit AMD Athlon Processor. I'm having some problem installing Adobe flash player in my Desktop. due to this I'm unable to view any ..... videos.
I went to the website get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ site and there is a note that 64-bit users: Download a preview release of Flash Player with native support for 64-bit Linux from Adobe Labs. On following this link it redirected me to [URL]...10_square.html where I could find a tar.gz file Download plug-in for 64-bit Linux (TAR.GZ, 4.1 MB) I tried untarring this file but could not find configure, read me files with installation steps.
Has any one installed Adobe flash player on Fedora 15 64 bit? if so can you please point me to the rpm? or the file which has the proper installation procedure. I'm a new bie to linux. so would prefer a rpm over tar.gz files.

I'm trying to install adobe flash player on wheezy (7.4). I've downloaded the package since adobe thinks apt works in a browser (it doesn't on my laptop). Anyway, I've tried installing the adobe flash player package via gdebi and it complains binutils is not installed. fine, I go to synaptic to find binutils and synaptic cannot find it. I'm not even sure why it is not installed. How to get binutils?
Here is my sources.list:
Code: Select all#
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.3.0 _Wheezy_ - Official i386 NETINST Binary-1 20131215-03:38]/ wheezy main
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.3.0 _Wheezy_ - Official i386 NETINST Binary-1 20131215-03:38]/ wheezy main
# deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
# deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main

They have broken something in their download site and it is no longer possible to get the latest flash player in a .deb package by direct download. The FTP site is years out of date. And there is no way to get through the "help' system to contact the people running the web site.
So does some third party offer the latest flash player in a .deb package for download?

You may know that there was a security release for Adobe Flash Plugin for Linux x86 but not for x86_64. There has been a development:
See : http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
It works fine here. I have a Multilib Slack 13.1 stable.

i am running ubuntu 10.04 i installed ubuntu restricted extras, and i went on videos. although i can view the video, i can't click on pause, the volume controls, or seek through the video, or put it into fullscreen mode. i went into the software center and searched "adobe flash player", and it came up with adobe flash plugin 10. it doesn't have an "install" button on it, so i double-clicked it, and it said " sorry, 'adobe flash plugin 10' is not available for this type of computer (amd64)."
