HT5271 What's the best Flash player to use with a (pre-Intel) G5 Mac OS 10.5.8 using Safari 5.0.6?

I'm using my wife's old G5 running OS 10.5.8 and Safari 5.0.6. Being denied access to streaming video sites like Netflix because of out-of-date flash player. Is there any newer iteration I could download that wouldn't be counterproductive (by disabling what does work now on Hulu and YouTube, etc). I gather that Adobe may have jettisoned the non-Intel Macs. I can't even find the specs on this G5's player. It doesn't show up as a plug-in on System Preferences' Network list, as it does on my MacBook Pro. Any options you can suggest would be appreciated. Thanks.

Flash player 11.1 hack on PowerPC - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16990862
Might be later ones around also... saw 11.3 I think. 10.5 now.
(If you are running a PPC Mac with Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and are having problems with watching videos on FaceBook or other sites, contributor Texas Mac Man suggests the following solution which fools the site into thinking that you are running the latest version:)
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

    What is the best flash player for iPad?

    Whatever works the best for you. Flash, as a program, is so inconsistently coded that there is no singular best player. Some work with one site better than others.
    Try looking for ones that have a free trial so you can see how it works for you.

  • What is the best program to Rip DVD with 5.1 audio for Mac Book

    I just purchased a Macbook Pro and want to rip DVD's. I want to retain the 5.1 audio tracks. What is the best program for this? Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    Sorry, but if you're referring to commercial and hence copy-protected video DVDs, breaking the copy protection, which would be necessary to copy the videos from the DVD and convert them, is illegal in the US (and other countries), so we're not allowed to discuss it here.   Some DVDs and Blu-Ray movies come with a "digital copy" that allows you to download a copy of the movie for use on computers. You might see if any of the DVDs you have come with such a feature.
    If these are home movies that you or someone has burned to DVD and hence are not copy-protected, Handbrake (freeware) is one of the more popular converters. I'm not sure how it handles 5.1 audio, though, if it will at all.
    Regards.

  • Since i don't have idvd on my new imac, what is the best alternative dvd burning program with similar features? (creating menus, elegant and easy to use, etc.)

    I just found out that Apple no longer ships a solo version of idvd with the new macs.  I used this program with my imac as it was simple and got the job done.
    In imovie, under "share" there is an option for idvd, but it isn't a program i can get into like the old one for menu creation, etc.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for a really good reliable dvd burning program with menu creation features similar to idvd?

    Hi
    There are two answers
    A. No there are nothing like iDVD - at all
    B. read on
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    • iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    • DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    • Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    • Burn - only free alternative I know of on internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    only You can buy from Apple is
    • FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.

    First try deleting Flash Player by carefully following the instructions on Adobe's website:

    Then install it again from this location only:

    Adobe stopped support a while ago for it.  They are replacing Flash Player with Air.  WatchESPN for example uses Air.

  • What's the best flash to use for nighttime sports games?

    What's the best flash to use for nighttime sporting events? I have a rebel XT and I'm pushing it to its limits trying to stop the action. I've tried a speedlite 430 but it didn't have a hook up for an external battery pack and I was told I'd need the extra power. Just tried the 580ex ll on Friday but at the 1/1 setting, it didn't flash for each frame in a burst, even with the external power. I should have backed it down to 1/4 but didn't know at the time. Any thought on a really good flash for night sports? Is the 580 a good choice?

    JUst as Tim_S said. YOu will want a external battery pack. Unforatannly the 430 does not have the option to plug in a external battery pack so will want to pick up a 580 or one of the new 600 series. 
    Then you start looking at the battery packs. I recommend Quantum power packs

  • What is the best media player to use on iBook  500MHZ, 576MB RAM

    Can anyone advise me what is the best media player to use to play .avi files on my iBook. I have tried using Quicktime (7.6.4) with Perian installed and it is very choppy. I have also tried VLC (0.8.6i)and that's not much better.
    My iBook is 500MHZ, 40GB HDD, 576MB RAM running MAC OS X 10.4.11 with all updates installed. I have also disabled dashboard and spotlight but that's not made much difference.
    Many thanks
    Garry

    Well, now, isn't that interesting?
    I left my iBook G3 800 MHz in Mac OS X 10.3 because I believed that upgrading to 10.4 would tax it too much. Others have successfully run 10.4 on their iBook G3s, and with the upgraded hard drive, I would have thought you'd be okay with it.
    I generally don't do more than one upgrade of the OS past what my Mac came with. When I want to upgrade further, I upgrade my Mac.
    I'm glad you figured out something that would work for you. Posting back to let us know may help someone else in the future, so thank you for that.

  • What is the best media player for Ipad 2

    what is the best media player for Ipad 2?
    Is it VLc? if so, where can I find the VLC media player

    Im going to go ahead and assume your talking to me?
        I ended up in this thread in search of a functional Exchange ready mail client capable of supporting multiple mail profiles. Since there are no free applications to accomplish this in the app stor, which I can find, I figured I'd leverage the 'community' for some direction before throwing good money after bad.
       As I assume Im not the only one to do this, I figured I'd help straighten these folks out on the lingo (as they werne't applying it properly) and the sassy 'sound like apple users' comment references the way ANTI-apple folks assume you people are less than adequite users.
       If I called an apple an orange, you would say I was wrong. If I did it repeatedly, after correction, you would assume Im incompetant.
       Seriously, its a stupid machine and will only do what you tell it. (true for all computers, apple or otherwise)
       So if I ask for a mail client, dont give me a provider. If I ask for a service, dont name a client. 
        Your right, this post is old. And stilll doesnt have an answer. . .
        In response to MichelPM, I didnt call your baby ugly. The 'Bandwagoning' is cute though. My advice is sound, and helping you folks not to look so... well... stupid.
        Since you interceded though, how about a little help? What mail client do you use? Is it exchange Compatible, with active sync? Does it offer multi-profile support? And the clients want images in their signatures, and multi signature support. (I can do this with my android phone ) 
    Im looking forward to your responses.

    There is no Flash for iOS and there never will be any Flash.
    Try the newer HTML5 versions of those Web sites that offer it.

  • What is the best flash for ipad3, What is the best flash for ipad3

    What is the best flash for ipad3.

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
    Puffin
    SkyFire
    Photon Flash
    Browse2Go
    iSwifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

    I have a pioneer vsx-910-k and airport express.I have a wireless network at home. What's the best arquiecture/config to do with this hardware?

    I would suggest that you connect the Pioneer to the AirPort Express Base Station using an optical digital audio cable that has a TOSlink connector on one end and a 3.5 mm optical connector (Mini Plug) on the other. You can then connect the Mini Plug end into the AirPort's audio port and the TOSlink end into one of the Pioneer's optical digital audio ports.
