What versions of Flash Player Still Receive Security Fixes?

Greetings,
I'm seeking a page that lists the supported vs. unsupported versions of Flash Player. That is, what versions are still eligible to recieve security fixes (regardless of OS).
Thanks!
Edit update:
To be more clear and reword things: I'd like to find the annoucement pages for each unsupported version of Flash Player, that is, links to office Adobe content showing when certain versions entered an unsupported state.
Thanks again!

As far as I know, we don't have an official page that lists when a version stops receiving security fixes. I suspect we'll do a blog post when this occurs and I'll also update in our announcement forum which you can find here:
Is there a way to be automatically notified when a new Flash Runtime release is made?
The announcement forum also lets you know when security udpates are made, and where to find both the 11.x and 10.3 updates.

I was finally able to successfully installed FP on my Mac OS 10.5.8 using the last trick shown below by Chris (Adobe Flash Player.pkg file). This, only after several (at least 10) attempts, and only after restarting my computer after downloading the install file. Thanks for the helpful post.

Making .swf files in Flash Pro CC: What versions of Flash Player could play it?

Hello, all!
I was recently let go from my last job. My former boss wanted me to do ActionScript work on a PowerPC Mac (an iMac G5) with a decade-old version of Flash (Flash MX 2004.) Her reasoning for this was sound: she wanted to distribute some of here English tutoring software to cash-strapped schools, so she wanted me to work with older software and hardware to ensure compatibility. Unfortunately (in this case) the only version of Flash Pro that I can legally acquire is Flash Pro CC, so I was unable to actually get my hands on anything that could run ActionScript 2. This made my productivity at work go slower than desired. Not only was I slow in picking up how to use Flash MX on a Mac (I'm primarily a Windows/Linux person) but she made it quite clear that she wasn't going to have me learning how to do the job on company time. In the end, she decided to scrap the project.
Now, that job is gone, and what's done is done, but I'm still interested in using Flash/ActionScript, and I'm also left with a question that, depending on the answer, may have saved my job if I had asked it just a couple days ago: what's the oldest version of Flash Player that would be able to play .swf files made in the current version of Flash Pro CC?
Thank you all for your time.

with a cc subscription, you can download, install and activate flash pro cs6 which supports as2.
the answer to your last question depends on what features you use of flash pro cc. at a minimum you would be using as3 and need to use a flash player version that supports as3.

What version of flash player do i need

Hi,
I tried publishing captivate projects and there is this weird
dialogue box which sticks out in the middle which says created by :
my name, creator : my company's name and adobe captivate in the
bottom and it runs over all the slides . I have flash player 6. Is
that the problem. What version should i get to avoid this dialogue
box and i tried importing .swf project to ppt. Did all the gimicks
which were given online on how to make video embed in a ppt and it
did not play . Does this have something to do with my version of
flash player again??

I would suggest trying with Flash player v7 or later.. I've
not seen your particular issue but I think Captivate was built with
v7 in mind

What version of flash player should be installed on website?

Not very saavy with building site, looking for recommendations on what is the least problematic version of flash player. Site is www.legacygroupbuilders.com Thanks!

Hi Thomas,
Flash Player is installed on the individual's pc, not on the website. If you have Flash content on your site, then visitors to that site need to have Flash Player installed to view the content. Depending on your content, you may require your visitor's have a specific version of Flash Player installed to view the content.
BTW, https://www.legacygroupbuilders.com/ returns a 'web page not available' error on Chrome, and connection time out on Firefox attempting to get to it.

Which version? Flash Player & Java

I am so confused with the recent scares, news, updates, security patches and "pop ups" telling me I need to "do".....
What number version of JAVA do I need and what version of Flash Player do I need. Mtn LION 10.8.2
What's the hub-bub from the manufacturers Oracle and Adobe, versus from apple?

For Java 7: version "1.7.0_17"
For Java 6: version "1.6.0_43"
For Adobe Flash Player: version "11.6.602.171"
Have no answer for the overhyped scare-mongering.

Installing the latest version of Flash Player

Since installing the latest version of Flash Player I receive a constant "Plug In " failure message. I have re installed, uninstalled, sent error reports, checked my system, followed trouble shooting instructions. It still does not work. Is the upgrade a dud? Tried to send this message to "contact Adobe three times, Where to from here?

ATTENTION MAC CUSTOMERS - Flash Player 13 "Plugin Failure" Workaround

Using two different versions of Flash Player

While I realize that Flash Player is up to 10. something and a security update is available for it, one program I use over the net will not recognize anything over version 9x. It seems like that internet application has trouble with version numbers over 1 initial digit. Thus 5.x, 6.x, up to 9.x is recognized fine, but 10.x is not!
So, my question is: While I would like to run the latest version of flash player with the security update, unless I can run version 9 or lower on the same computer, I will not be able to run verison 10 since I really need that program that only recognizes up to 9. IS IT possible to have both versions on the same computer and if so, how would one direct the computer to use the lower one when necessary?
