Why Does my Computer Tell me I Need Flashplayer

When I try to watch a video on Facebook or play farmville it tells me I need Flashplayer and I've tried to reload my Adobe Flash and it won't.

Answer

Flashplayer is required for many video or game formats on the internet. This is why you're having trouble with farmville or Facebook. Reboot the computer, then head to the adobe website and download the latest Flashplayer from there.

If you still have trouble, it might be a browser issue. Follow the support or FAQ on the adobe site to help you. All of this assumes you have administrator privileges on the computer you're using. If you don't you'll need to get this password.
