How do I install flash player for my Nokia N810?

Re: Insatlling flash player on a nokia n810
 

It comes preinstalled. Make sure that it's enabled by clicking the 'magnifiying glass' icon in the bottom right of the browser, then clicking components, then making sure 'Shockwave Flash' is checked.

I know, it is checked. When I try to watch videos on facebook, it say I have to install adobe flash player. How do I do that?

I think those videos require a newer version of Flash than the one that comes installed on the tablets. There might be a workaround, but I am not aware of one.

Are you sure you're running the latest Maemo release?

Re: Insatlling flash player on a nokia n810
 

Yep. I have the latest firmware update on it.

I can also confirm facebook videos require a newer version of flash. I think it's one of the few webpages the internet tablet can't display because it needs a newer version of flash, which we can't install.

Well that sucks. Ah well, not the end of the world. Thanks guys.

Unfortunately, these videos don't actually need a newer version of Flash, they just think they do. Blame the stupid Facebook application developers for being stupid. :\

Haha...will do.

Re: Insatlling flash player on a nokia n810
 

It should work if you trick it by increasing the version number the Flash plugin reports, but I don't have the details on changing this, so somebody else will have to be more specific here.

how about shockwave for playing isketch?

Adobe has not made a Shockwave plug-in available for the tablets and is unlikely to do so in the future. If anything, Adobe, like Macromedia before it, seems to be hoping Shockwave will fade away without anyone noticing. There's no Shockwave plug-in for desktop (x86) Linux or Mac OS X on Intel, and those platforms would almost certainly rank above Nokia Internet Tablets on Adobe's priority list, were Shockwave a priority at all.
