Hi Vicki.
What browser and version? And what web pages for example?
Your problem might be related to Microsoft's changes to the ActiveX
model on which Flash depends:

I'm confused. I have JAWS 8 and I've had to install Adobe Flash Player for
content on certain web pages I use, and it's not one bit accessible to me. I
can't control the volume or other features of the player. Is there a plugin
I need to install also to have access to the player with JAWS?

I'm guessing you mean the browser plugin not the standalone player.
Adobe claim the Flash plugin supports JAWS in Internet Explorer and
Freedom Scientific claim JAWS supports it. The Adobe Flash plugin works
okayish with JAWS in Internet Explorer, but not Firefox thanks to
Adobe's failure to support software choice among the visually impaired.
However, a lot of Flash content does not use the accessibility features
provided by the Flash plugin. See also (among many possible resources):
