Hi all
We have just bought an iPad (a waste of money we know now)
Is there anyone out there that knows why we can't get in to the chartroom???? I think it might have something to do with the chartroom needing flash!
If anyone cam help us we would be really grateful
D and T xx
you will need flash player,but i dont know much about i pads. :sad:
That is the main reason why I did not buy one.
My i phone does not support it either, even though it is a 400 plus quid phone.
I will go for a notebook.
I recently got an iPhone essentially to come on here away from prying eyes - (the wife lol) and was gutted about not being able to video chat -might look into this jailbreak buisness
All,
A couple of months ago Apple announced that NONE of their iPad and iPhone product range will support any Adobe Flash Player which they have 'attacked as buggy and crash-prone" *
Therefore whilst anyone with an iPad or iPhone should be able to access Swinging Heaven as a site they will NOT be able to access Chat.
My understanding is that Cubes is correct, or should that will be correct when the new version of Chat is launched as the actual Chat rooms will not be Adobe Flash Player based.
However my understanding is that Adobe Flash Player will be required to view cams, i.e. those with Apple iPad and iPhone products will be able to access Chat and join in discussions/conversations but not view any cams.
The reason for Apple's 'spat' with Adobe is one for Apple to explain to it's customers given the pretty widespread market dominance of Adobe's Flash Player product in the computer market.
I'm not saying that Adobe is perfect given many people's frustration with it being unable to offer 64-bit versions of Flash Player in this day and age, plus SH's move to 'in-house' develop a new version of Chat with significantly less reliance on Flash Player.

- What is Adobe Flash Player = "A cross-platform browser-based application runtime that delivers uncompromised viewing of expressive applications, content, and videos across screens and browsers"
- CEO Steve Jobs described Flash as outdated, unreliable and unfit for Apple's iPhone and iPad gadgets. In a detailed, 1,685-word offensive posted online spelled out the reasons why Apple continues to ban Flash from it's mobile devices, including "reliability, security and performance," and the fact that Flash was designed "for PCs using mice, not for touch screens using fingers."

- Apple do currently still list Adobe Flash Pro CS5 products in the Apple Store
- Google "apple and flash war" for more comment/info
