Installing Adobe Flash
You need to have a free program called Adobe Flash installed in your web browser to see sections of your TrainingPeaks account; this program normally automatically installs when our system detects that you do not have it, when you enter a section of your TrainingPeaks account that needs Adobe Flash. However, sometimes the auto download tool gets interrupted and the Flash plugin does not get installed. Fortunately, there is an easy fix; just follow these steps:
- Close your web browser, then go to Adobe's site directly:
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash
- Install the Flash plugin there, then return to TrainingPeaks and everything should work for you.
