Unblock Adobe Flash Player

No ideas possible. Safari 14 does not support Adobe Flash, period. As VikingOSX explained Adobe Flash is being retired by Adobe. Websites and developers have had almost two years notice that this was coming. Flash has always been and continues to be the most vulnerable and hacked format on the planet. More people have been compromised by Flash than any other standard. Way back in 2007 Steve Jobs banned Flash from iOS and no iPhone or iPad has ever supported it. Now it’s macOS’s turn. If you still rely on Flash for something you need to contact the website and complain that they have refused to update their site to comply with HTML5, the standard that replaced Flash years ago.

For what its’ worth I removed Flash from my computer almost three years ago now and have had absolutely no issues with websites at all. Many higher level volunteers here removed it year ago too.

Flash is dead and Adobe will bury it at the end of this year.

Safari 14 has entirely removed support for Adobe Flash Player in preparation for Adobe retiring Flash before year end. Most proactive sites have also anticipated this, and have switched from Flash to HTML5 streaming support.

Why don't you have a backup strategy in place? It's like driving without a seatbelt - you don't need it until there's a crash. There are only two types of drives, those that will crash and those that have crashed. It's so easy to get an large external HDD (2 - 3 times the size of the drive you're backing up) and use Time Machine to start your backups.

I strongly recommend on of these:  OWC Mercury Elite Pro. The only drive that ever crashed on me was a LaCie. OWC has an excellent reputation for quality hardware, reliability, customer support and warranties. I won't use anything else. Just some food for thought.

Ive been looking. I intend to buy one but I haven't yet. Looking at Lacie.

Im having the exact same issue since my upgrade this morning. I spent time this morning on the phone wit applecare. I

cleared cache/ deleted all history - no help

create a user test log in - I got the same issue on the new log in

we tried recovery mode and safe mode... - no help there

then lastly we reinstalled the operating system completely- still doesn't work.

tried reinstalling flash as well. no use.

my computer is almost a year old. no other issues. my husbands computer that is older than mine still works but he has not done the system update yet.

can't go back unless you have a back up. I don't. any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. I sent an email. Hopefully they have other options. I just let my tech work for me. I don’t really keep up on it. But now that I know, I’ll know what to ask. I’ll have my husband not update the software on his computer till I get it figured out. Just curious why AppleCare didn’t know. They had me do all the work to fix it. You’d think they would know. 😁
