I like to check the Comcast Xfinity schedule on my computer before I make my evening plans, just in case a favorite show is on. Lately, however, it won’t load and complains my version of something called Flash is out of date on Chrome for Mac. How do I update it?

Of all the technologies that power the Internet, few are as controversial as Flash, a product from Adobe that’s available across all major computing platforms. In the early days, it was what powered all the cool animations and beautiful sites you visited, but more and more security problems were uncovered and developers created a sophisticated – and far safer – alternative called HTML 5.0. Nowadays when you use interactive pages like Google Maps it’s HTML 5.x under the hood that’s helping power its speedy interactivity within your browser.

A few sites are holdouts, however, and Xfinity is one of them with its interactive programming guide. Well, somewhat interactive as them losing a lawsuit against TiVO caused them to remove just about all the useful functionality from the guide, including the ability to remotely tune your TV to another channel and remotely set up recordings for your DVR. Whatever the reason, you’re learning that you need Adobe Flash installed and available for the Xfinity program guide to work, and if it gets out of date, Google Chrome itself will block things proceeding to help you stay secure. That’s good.

All browser's block Flash by default, so if you've installed Flash Player and still don't see Flash content, you'll need to enable it in the browser. See the following for assistance: For Firefox on any OS, see Enable Flash Player for Firefox.
For Chrome, the Flash player is built in. To update do Help > About Google Chrome and perform the update. Mac, and last August, Adobe announced support for Linux.
Adobe released the Flash Player Update for IE and Mozilla based browsers. Using 'chrome://components/', as suggested above, to 'force' an update is useless as it doesn't even pick up the Pepper Flash version number next to the button - and the normal updater also doesn't pick up any update.
So if you have the problem with the online installer then here you can download Adobe Flash Player 31 Windows & Mac latest offline installer version for Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 (32Bit & 64 bit) & Mac PC.

Except fixing it is a bit more complicated than it should be.

Adobe® Flash® Player is a lightweight browser plug-in and rich Internet application runtime that delivers consistent and engaging user experiences, stunning audio/video playback, and exciting gameplay. Installed on more than 1.3 billion systems, Flash Player is.

Perhaps you are seeing this instead, however:

If it’s been working fine and suddenly you see either – or both – of the above, well, it’s time to fix it! Frustratingly, however, the “Learn more” link on the yellow Chrome error is about the most confusing help page I’ve ever seen from Google. I know what’s going on and I still don’t really understand what it’s showing and how it applies to my situation as shown above. So skip it.

Instead, in the address bar of Chrome enter this address: chrome://components

You’ll get to see all the technological bits and pieces that make up the Web browser’s full set of capabilities. It’ll look like this:

Ignore everything except “Adobe Flash Player“. Here’s where you’ll want to “Check for update” to see what happens. Note: If you have any tabs open that are trying to use Flash, that can prevent an update, so I recommend you close every other window in Google Chrome on your Mac before you check for the update.

Most likely you’ll see something like this:

Component updated = good! Double check, click “Check for update” again. If there aren’t any additional updates, you’ll see this:

Sometimes that means it couldn’t update, but in this context it means you’re already using the latest and greatest.

Great. Now quit, restart your browser, and give Xfinity another shot. Hopefully you’ll see this:

Problem solved!

Let’s Stay In Touch!

I do have a lot to say, and questions of my own for that matter, but first I'd like to say thank you, Dave, for all your helpful information by buying you a cup of coffee!

Google bundles Flash Player (PPAPI) with its Chrome web browser. Google first enabled the integrated Flash Player by default when it released Chrome 5.0 in June 2010.

Its importance becomes more evident when Adobe assigns patched Flash vulnerabilities a Priority 1 severity rating. Priority 1 updates resolve “vulnerabilities being targeted, or which have a higher risk of being targeted, by exploit(s) in the wild…” So is there indeed no need t
