There are shops that can make custom adapters for this. For example, evseadapters.com Or can also make your own adapter, if you know what type of outlet and plug you are working with, and which wires to connect to which terminals. Obviously one of the slots on the female connector will remain unused, most likely the neutral slot. The two hot connections and the ground connection would be used.
You'll need to contact an electrician who will pull a new wire for you. If you only have 2 wires on the 240 line, you don't have a neutral or a ground; both of which are essential for a modern electric range.
No, and adapters are not needed. What needs to be done in remove the old three blade dryer plug and install a new four blade cord on the dryer.Dryer plug three to fourInstructions should come with the new cord.

This is the attachment point for the fourth green ground wire from the new dryer cord assembly.
Write one volt equals 1,000 millivolts at the top of your paper. This is the standard conversion of volts to millivolts. Write down the number of volts you need to convert in decimal form. For example, if you have four volts, write 4.0. Move the decimal point over three times to the right to convert your amount of volts to millivolts. For example if you have 4.0 volts, you would have 4000 millivolts.

You should install a four prong. The older ones were three prong and had no ground. An adaptor isn't made because it wouldn't fix the problem. You could make your own adaptor and cut the ground off with a pair of dykes, but don't.
