Did you do on this?

If you get a message that install is blocked for security reasons because app isn't from Play Store, go to Settings>Security>Device Administration>Unknown Sources and check that box.

Also try downloading the file again and make sure you're downloading the file for Android 4.x devices, not a file for PCs.
 
Go here: Archived Flash Player versions
Scroll down to Section titled "Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives" and download latest archived version (11.1.115.63 as of 6/12/13).
Transfer the .apk file to the Download folder on your Note 10.1 and launch it to install it.
Go to your app page, find the Flash icon and launch the app.

[EDIT]
Inserted latest version number

WOW! i love that people can help like this, i accidentally deleted the adobe flash player 11 from the Samsung galaxy tab 10.1. and i kept getting the "Device is not supported" error! i came across this forum and major THANKS to Bluzman i did what you said on here and wah-lah it works!! thanks so much! :)
 
The latest version as of this morning is 11.1.115.69. I edited Post #2 to show this.

Ha, ha. I was going to post up and ask if there's been / will be, any flash updates we can use for Note 10.1. No need to now. Thanks.
Is the process for updating exactly the same as the process for installing the 1st time? No need to be deleting old versions etc?
Sorry, I ask all the dumb questions.
Cheers...

Just curious about downloading flash when it's not authorized and that if you download it, it voids the support for the system. Also read that you won't get any updates for the OS and security system if you download it. Is this correct?
 
I've downloaded and installed Flash Player on my Samsung Tablet 10.1 so I can read magazines on Zinio...but when I open some of my magazines the pages don't come up, but I just get a continual circling wheel. Am I missing doing something?

That refers to flashing ROM with things like Cyanogen, not downloading Adobe Flash player.

I followed the instructions in post #2 (well at least I think I did), to upgrade my version of flash, yet I keep getting this message? The instructions say to move the .apk file to"down|oads" yet mine seemed to save automatically into downloads, so I simply installed it from there using the "scan & install" option from the pop up menu that appeared when I clicked on the .apk file.

Anyone able to point out where I've gone wrong?

As always thanks bluz brotha, updating the Flash Player always fixes me up a little and I usually forget all about the updating, ill start having slight intermittent problems with watching JTV etc then read this and update, and all gravy baby.

Did you "Go to your app page, find the Flash icon and launch the app."?

Yep. This is all I get is this. Still get the same upgrade message???

I followed the steps on post 2 another 3 tikes this morning, all to no avail. I recently installed google chrome and hulu. Dont know if they could have anything tomdomwith why the updated version of flash isnt working. It was working fine before I tried updating it :-(

I did this and after downloading Flash I got a message "A plugin is needed to display this content"
What now?
 
In regards to my previous post, and also reffering to playing Flash content like Facebook games:
I can confirm, that using Dolphin Browser and the Dolphin Jetpack add-on, that Flash Content and Games play with no problem on my stock GN10.1.
Just ensure that you go to the app options > Settings > Web Content and set the Flash Player to Always On (It is off by default)
I have been able to play games through Facebook, and watch Flash Cartoons (Weebls, etc.) just fine.
Good luck - hope this helps!!
 
I was a bit disappointed when I could not stream my favorite tv network on my new galaxy note 10.1 (video.theblaze.com).
After following your link and instructions it works perfectly.
Thank you so much.
 
I followed all the instructions, downloaded achive version of flash for Android, downloaded dolphin browser from the playstore and even downloaded es manager to help make the transition easier...the problem occurred when I clicked on the flash player setting app (which is the only thing that was given at the time of installation), using dolphin browser, the local storage and network setting was the only thing there. There was no I accept button or nothing...I assumed once I accepted the setting and exited everything would be fine. I immediately open a site using my new browser to a site that I know you must have flash player use...it worked on the site! Yeah, but then I tried netflix and we have a problem! I'm not able to watch netflix on my tablet , a big disappointment. I went under setting and changed on flashplayer in dolphin, hoping that would help but no it didnt. I'm happy with what I'm able to do but a liitle frustrated with my limited access. I'm determined to figure out what went wrong, but I'm not very tech savy, can I get more help from my fellow forum memmbers? Any thing anyone can do to help me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 
You'll need the Netflix app (not Flash) from the Play Store to watch films from Netflix. In fact it may even be preloaded on your GN 10.1.
