Flash MX on Intel Mac?

Does anyone know if Flash MX will run on an Intel Mac, or am
I going to have to get a new version? Thanks.

.MOV format is a video format - the longer your movie the
larger the file sizes. On Mac you can
export to true Quicktime Video, on PC it is a flash movie in
the quicktime player. If you need to
work with large video files - buy a bigger hard drive -
possibly an external drive - i have a could
of USB drives each about 180GB each and cost about $150.

Flash Player 9 Intel Mac Solution

ISSUE:
Basically, what I have found on the call with a customer, is
that; after installing latest version of FP people were unable to
see flash content on websites, the installer finishes without
errors, but player still dosent work.
PROBLEM:
It seems that somehow the permissions on the plugins folder
were changed.
FIX:
1. Close all files and applications on the disk you want to
verify or repair.
2. Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and
select the disk in the left column.
3. Click First Aid.
4. Select Repair Permissions or something similar to that
OR
via the shell (Terminal) by using the command "sudo diskutil
repairPermissions /" without the quotes.

Well.. then heres a few other things to try::

run the uninstaller.. after it finishes, take a look in
~/library/internet plug-ins folder and see if you have write
permissions on it. If you do then download and run this package

Flash Player 10.2.153.1 upgrade not working on 64bit Intel-Mac in Safari 5.0.4

I feel robbed! I want to use my Safari.
The latest upgrade of Flash player does not work.
I don't even remember downloading it, it must've been an automatic update!
I can not play youtube videos nor can I play any games on Facebook.
Who knows what is not working in my Avid!! I have not been working on that lately.
The flash player still works on FireFox, but i have no intention on switching to that.
The first aid has been run a few times.
It will download the free flash player for Intel Mac and it says the install is successful, but it is not there.
I have CS4 and it never bothered or disrupted the free flash player before.
I uninstalled it just in case and nearly lost it! When I tried to reinstall Flash, it said my disc to was blank!
Luckily, a friend in the business of fixing computers was able to get that back! whew.
The flash player from the CS4 is showing up in a folder and will even open when clicked on, but it does nothing. It is version 10.0 r2.
When I go to the place where they say to "see what version of flash you have"
I just get that icon that says to "Get Adobe Flash player".
It down not show the suggested "missing plug-in" pictures.
Yes, I read there is compatibility issues with the 64 bit Mac, but it always worked before!!!
Help!! Please!!

So the Shockwave Flash plugin in FF is Installed and Enabled. That's why Flash Player is working and why you were able to see the Flash Player logo animation. On the other hand, evidently the Shockwave Flash plugin is either not Installed in Safari or if it is it is Disabled. And that is why it's not working and you can't see the Flash Player logo.
Yes, I know Flash Player can be Installed in any supported 64bit OS. Also I thot that the 64bit browser in Mac was the "default" browser and the "Compatibility layer" had to be used. Similiar to the PC IE8 or IE9, switching over to the Compatibility feature in the browser.
Do you need to activate the Compatibility feature? I have had other Mac users tell me that their problem was they were using the 64bit browser and found out they had to use the 32bit browser, so I thot it was something they had to do. I would think if it was automatic they would not have had to "do" anything. But like I said I don't use Mac so can only relate what they tell me.
With Safari on either of the test sites, no Flash Player version was displayed?
Look into the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ directory and see if you have the below two files:
Flash Player.plugin, flashplayer.xpt
After that see if this thread is of any help: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2725949#2725949

Flash movie embedded in Acrobat (Intel Mac)

I use the slideshow feature in Acrobat to give presentations.
Maybe that's a crazy idea, but anyway, I do. I have an Acrobat
slideshow with an embedded Flash movie that used to play very
nicely.
Now I've switched to an Intel Mac and Flash 9 beta. When I
play the slideshow, Acrobat gives me an error that it can't play
the movie, and then it wants to take me to download an additional
player. Okay, fine. But the download page it takes me to is for
QuickTime Pro. Will that really help? Why won't Flash 9 beta work
with Acrobat? I don't see any standalone player in my download...
that may have something to do with it.
Anyway, I would have hoped for greater integration with
Acrobat now that Flash Player is an Adobe app. How to bridge this
gap? Matt.

I suggest you post your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products, as it's their software you're having issues with:

Flash and Intel Macs

Hi there everyone,
I've got a site that has a flash game in which users need to answer math questions by typing in numbers and hitting enter. I recently heard from a user who just switched from a PC to an Intel Mac. The game worked fine on the PC, but now, when he's playing the game, it won't register him typing in the numbers. The keyboard works fine all other times he clicks the numbers, just not in the game.
I figure this is a flash plugin problem, but I figured I'd check here and see if anyone's heard of any general Flash + Intel Mac issues like this.
Thanks,
Dan P.

Nevermind... it's appartenly working on user's computer. Sorry for the forum clutter.

Flash + Intel Mac + Leopard = CRASH!

I've got an intel mac pro with 4 GB ram running the latest
Mac OS 10.5.2. Its perfect and runs like a dream until I use CS3
then it all falls apart.
The worst app seems to be Flash. On average it crashes the
mac about every half hour. It's like using OS8 all over again.
What's going on? Every time I switch on the mac the Adobe Updater
starts bouncing around in my doc and thats another 20 minutes gone
downloading updates that don't seem to fix anything. There are some
serious errors with CS3 on intel mac. Are Adobe aware of this? and
are they doing anything about it?

Turn off the Adobe updater and download the stand-alone
updaters. Then leave the auto update off. A good idea for just
about everything.
My copy of CS3 runs fine.

Intel Mac Flash Player

I've been using the the Flash 9 Beta for the Intel Mac on my
iMac core duo and the sound has been fine for the last month of so
but just these last two weeks the none of the sound works at all.
All of the other features seem to work fine but there is no sound
whatsoever. I tried checking the plug-in settings but they haven't
been changed. i was just wondering if anyone else was having htis
problem?

Flash Player 10.3.183.90
Mac OS X 10.5
•Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (Mac only) (24.4 MB)
This may be the correct one, since it does not say Mac OS X 10.4+ PPC
While I have an Intel-Mac running OS X 10.5.8, and last version supported
Flash from Adobe archive, I don't recollect which one. I did save the .zip.
Also have three PPC Macs running OS X 10.5.8 with a patched adobe flash
using the 11.x method of extracting part of a newer Flash (still vintage) to
trick sites into seeing it as a later than Flash 10.1.

Hopefully this helps.
Good luck & happy computing!

Intel Mac Mini stuck in reboot loop

I just upgraded the hard drive in my 2007 intel mac mini core duo. Drive formatted successfully, contains GUID Partition Table.
OSX 10.5 installed successfully.
Machine rebooted, I ran software update to 10.5.7 successfully.
Upon installing Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Acrobat Reader, machine began to react slowly to commands.
Rebooted machine, went to Grey Apple Screen with spinning dash wheen icon.
Machine rebooted itself, once again going to the grey apply screen with the spinning wheel.
After about 15 minutes of letting the continual reboot cycle happen, I inserted the installation DVD for 10.5, held the power button in to power off the machine, and booted from the disk.
I ran disk utility. Disk Utility shows the hard drive, shows the partition (GUID Partition) correctly.
I Verified Disk, which verified as "OK"
Repaired permissions.
Restarted machine.
Once again, it loaded to the grey apple screen, stayed there with the spinning dash wheel for about 3 minutes then continued to reboot over and over (everytime it reboots it sticks on the grey apple screen for 3 minutes before rebooting.
I once again powered off the machine and reset the PRAM.
Machine stuck again on reboot cycle.
I powered off the machine and reset the mini's SMC.
Machine is still stuck in reboot cycle.
I have also taken the mini back apart and verified that all RAM and connections are seated properly.
Any advice on what to do at this point will be very helpful.

+And I promise I will not download and install a hundred different programs this time.+
Good idea.
Any time you install software in OSX, there is a small, but finite, chance that the installation process won't be able to access a needed file because it is in use. This can mess up pre-binding, or even prevent files from being updated.
So the best advice is not to run any other programs while doing software installs or updates. And when in doubt, run DiskUtility afterwards and fix permissions one more time.
I cringe whenever I think of a post I read a while back about a Mac user who boasted about what music he likes to run in iTunes while doing system software updates. Not a good idea. It's "Russian roulette" with maybe 99 blanks in the "gun", but one real bullet that can kill your Mac's installation.

Installation problems on Intel Mac. claims PPC

I'm trying to install the current Flash Player 10.2 on my Macbook 6,1 (Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.26GHz) with 4GB RAM, running OSX 10.6.6
Browser is Firefox 3.6.13 {Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13}
I got the installer from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
The installer puts up a message: "Devices with PowerPC processors are no longer supported"
How can I convince the installer that this isn't a PPC machine ? Why might the installer think so ?

Hi, What browser are you using to try to Uninstall/Install FP vs 10.2? And when you Install 10.1, what browser are you using?
There is no Flash Player support for a 64bit browser. I have been very busy on the Forum and have not had time to check on the 10.3 beta. Not sure what it refers to. Have you? Just asking as I've seen it mentioned on another thread, but it's from those complaining about 10.2 not working. Why anyone would want a beta Installed unless they are involved in the testing and are Developers I don't know.
Any beta is a work in progress, so as long as a user is aware of that it's ok with me. Microsoft has their IE9 in beta too, but with an beta one can expect problems.
Since the 10.2 is not Installing, then I don't think you'd receive any code, do you?
I'm not as familiar with the Mac, but is it possible to upgrade the OS from a PPC to the edition you have now?
I'm going to check a couple of things while you let me know on the above browser info. Also any comments would be welcome:-)
Thanks,

Best app for QT on Intel Mac Mini kiosk?

Hi all:
I've sent variations of this message off to various folks and fora pertaining to Flash, Director, Livestage, etc., so I thought I'd ask here as well.
I'm working on a very high profile exhibit here in NYC, which is opening to the public on Sept. 11th (draw your own conclusions). It involves a number of standard definition (not HD) video-based kiosks.
These are running on bottom of the line off-the-shelf single-core Intel Mac Minis w/ 512MB RAM. No, we cannot change the platform. We have to make it work with what we have.
We built our prototype in Director. Unfortunately, using QT in Director projects on Intel-based Macs is a non-starter, because Director executables are not Universal Binary yet.
The app is very simple -- a black background that just waits to trigger the video on a mouse click and returns to the black background when the movie is done playing.
The key thing is we need to display the highest possible image quality. We had hoped to use H.264. We've also tried 3IVX and Motion JPEG B, all of which play beautifully in the QT Player but stutter noticeably once in Director. This turns out to be a known problem, and a Universal Binary version of Director isn't due until next year.
I've also tried making a QuickTime Media Link (QTL) file that allows us to "quit when done" so that we can use BuddyAPI to open the program with the QT Player and then drop back to the Director app when done.
That works great, except for the fact that as of OSX 10.3, you can't hide the menu of an app when switching to another app, which looks terrible. Arrgh.
Flash's Player v9 (which is Universal Binary) only runs in a Browser, not as a standalone. So unless there's a browser that will run fullscreen with no chrome, that's out for the foreseeable future as well.
So now I'm thinking about building the whole thing as a self-contained QT movie in Livestage.
Livestage only runs in Rosetta, so I don't know if the QT file I build run natively in the QT player, so that I can use h.264 or 3IVX or whatever without it stuttering. I'd be perfectly happy w/ 3IVX, by the way...
Any help or direction appreciated. We have to have this up and running on site by next Monday, the 14th.
best,
FBC

Right -- well, I'm not concerned with editing the video (I use FCP, too).
I completely understand the role of bitrate in making videos look good, and for the record, I've gotten decent looking videos from Motion JPEG B at the Medium (default) quality settings...
But that's not my question here. The problem is playing back any QT codec as an asset in a larger application (eg, Flash, Director, Livestage) running specifically on the Intel Mac Minis. At the root of the problem is lack of universal binary projectors.
At the moment, the best option I have so far is using SAFT to put Safari into Kiosk mode (no title bar, etc.) and using that to play back a Flash SWF file (which give me the needed interactivity) as the default home page.
We're also going to try to roll our own Cocoa app as a wrapper for a 3ivx file. That will almost certainly look better than even a very high bandwidth FLV/SWF.
Any other ideas appreciated...

Flash Player update for Mac OS X 10.5.8

Does anyone have any ideas how to update my flash player on my Mac? It has the following: OS X 10.5.8 which has a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. I tried updating directly from the Adobe forum related to this, but it only lists the option from 10.6 to 10.10 now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

If you're on an Intel Mac, you can probably complete the installation. I don't *think* we'll block you at install time. That said, we're using the MacOS 10.6 SDK, so there may be problems. You should be eligible for a free upgrade to Yosemite, and you might want to consider it.
Running a Flash Player from the archives means that you're missing all of the security fixes that have been shipped since that build was initially released. If you're surfing the web, this is generally a pretty bad ideal, even on Mac. You're going to be much safer running current versions of the OS and Flash Player.

Blinking Green Light! Mount & Unmount on Intel Mac mini

Hi all.
This is my sister's iPod shuffle, lat night she plugged into her new Intel Mac mini Core Duo, and the shuffle mounts, everything appears to be in working order, she said today she still listened to it.
Just now she accidently plugged the shuffle while in our Dad's account (on the Mac mini as well), then seemed like "all well broke loose", this is what she told me, first iTunes was not responsive, colour wheel, so she restarted but only arrived at the blank desktop and only the shadow of the Top Menu Bar
I reset the iPod shuffle, was successful in plugging it in, quit iTunes (all in her own account now) and update the shuffle software.
When inside iTunes, once I started Autofill, it suddenly unmounted by itself, followed by the red exclamation error message when you accidently remove an external device unproperly.
When I tried plugging in again, it refuses to mount. Just blinking Green, or pull out again, blinking Yellow.
Now I plug it into my own iMac G5, and it mounts and is blinking slowly with yellow light, what seems to be normal charging.
Has this something got to do with the Intel Mac??
Thanks and cheers

This probably has nothing to do with the Mini, but everything to do with the Shuffle. Like all flash memory, it is susceptible to damage if unplugged at the wrong time.
For the shuffle, you cannot remove it while it is updating or in Disk Mode. This warning is presented in the User's Guide and is repeated in several other places throughout the Support pages as well.
The general rule is: If it's blinking amber, don't unplug it before you unmount it. Unmounting can be done either in iTunes or in the Finder.
About all you can do, given the symptoms you're seeing, is try to Restore it. See the instructions in the User's Guide and/or on the iPod Shuffle Support Page.

How do you download adobe flash player on the Mac?

How do you download adobe flash player on the mac without it failing? I use to have it and try to upgrade it and now it won't work. I can't even watch any videos on the Internet.

Adobe no longer supports 10.5 Leopard. You will have to upgrade to 10.6 to use the latest flash.10.5 Leopard was based on Power PC code and was written to be able to run on both Power PC and Intel processors. 10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs. So anything written to run on 10.5 has twice the code needed for one written for 10.6 or newer.
The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is back in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard

Which version of Adobe Flash works properly with Mac operating systems?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=no0Fn_gIoCo
On Xat Flash Chatrooms it freezes. I thought Adobe Flash Beta 12 would fix my problem of the chats animations and chat freezing but it only temporarily fixed it because when I rebooted my Mac it still freezes the animation and chat! The latest versions of Adobe Flash non-beta Adobe Flash 11 something freezes too! Which specific Version of ADOBE Flash works properly on Mac OSX? NONE?
I'm on Safari Browser and Mavericks 10.9 OSX.
Specs:
Haswell 3.4ghz
graphics card: gtx 760
4 gigs of ddr3 ram
Macbook 2009: My other mac that does it too
Intel duo 2 core 2.13ghz
4gigs ddr2 ram
I believe my macbook is running Nvidia 9400m 250mb card
So each Mac that has had this problem is running Nvidia tho I don't know if thats the problem and I doubt it is. I'm sure it's a bug in Adobe Flash and Apple not caring enough to address the problems with Adobe Flash not working properly. If the two companies can't get a long, then why doesn't apple spend a little bit of money making their own compatible Flash for their safari browser?
My friend who is a girl that I talked to on Xat said that she has a Macbook I think from 2010 or 2011 running Mavericks and her Macbook does not freeze. Is there an explanation to why my Macbook 2009 freezes in Adobe Flash and if there's a solution to it? Is her Macbook running ati card maybe?
This is becoming very frustrating, so I need a solution. It does this on my Macbook and my Desktop Mac both which have Nvidia gpus.

The latest Flash 11 works fine for me on Mavericks, on every site that plays videos.
I have no idea what Xat Flash Chatrooms is (and really have no interest), but it sounds like the issue is with that site, as Flash in general works for literally tens of millions of people on most other sites.
