Just reading some of the responses. The best are those complaining that Apple and IOS are too proprietary and won't work with Adobe to run (their proprietary) Flash software.


Other great comments from those buying an Asus or other tablet and saying Flash runs so well on it. My experience with other tablets running flash was ANYTHING but smooth, but mostly because of the crappy OS. Only sulution that I found work at all, if just well-enough was Windows 8 (which runs awesome) with Firefox and Flash. Still, none of the other tablets had the battery life of the iPad, or really felt as solid in the OS (Windows 8 was very close, but still a bit clunky for setttings and such).


Good times.

Flash is proprietary software?!?!?!? Actually, it's the opposite. Creating a piece of software that can run on different platforms and a multitude of devices is the polar opposite of your statement. By that logic every 3rd party software company that runs on "most" platforms has "proprietary" software.


A year from now this thread won't even matter anyway. HTML 5 will have made major crossroads into every part of the web.

If it is not proprietary please send me a link to the public source code, thank you.

OK technically it is proprietary because it's a license piece of software but not in the context used above. The inference was that Flash was proprietary in the same sense as an Apple IOS device not being "open" like other devices. Flash is available to many platforms and devices.

What have you done?!??!? Asking this one simple question is bound to start a 93-page argument. I should just try doing that on Yahoo Answers and see what happens 😁

Do you realize that OP asked this question a year ago and has never been back?

Yeah I know. It's hilarious. People have been raging on this question for a long time, while the one who asked it is long gone 😀

I just seem to remember it disappearing right after the Phillies got knocked out early from the playoffs... hmm.


Don't misunderstand me. I do cheer for the Phillies/Eagles/Flyers but it's really the city that I love.


That's OK, some of my best friends are from Philadelphia.


I'm just hanging here in anticipation of the 1 year anniversary of this thread.

Well, the question has been answered. The iPad and other IOS devices do not support Flash. Why beat a dead horse?

Sheer coincidence! By the way, I'd like to sell you a bridge.

Hasn't it been several years already?

Wait what has this thread turned into?

I want to unsubscribe and can't, and the "UPDATED" thing is too tempting to click on.
