Hi,

I can install the plugin, but when you go to a flash site, it just doesn't play flash, it always comes up with the alternative gif image. So the browser doesn't know it has the plugin installed. Maybe, it is aftershock that generates code that is platform dependable. I checked on sites where I used aftershock to put the flashmovie on the page. If so, this is a serious problem. It means that if you use aftershock on a windows platform, Mac-browsers doen't take the Fl;ash and the other way around. I was surprised, 'cause of all the Mac stories that it is so friendly for users ;-)

I deleted the plugin and reinstalled, and no success. Maybe it is that machine, maybe not

I'm having a few problems with flash, although it only seems to be the one machine that is connected to the web, the other authoring machines - those that i did the work on - seem to handle shockwave fine.

Installing is not the problem, its getting it to work. What part of the install procedure doesn't work? You didn't say.

Normally I work with windows, but I'll go Mac, 'cause a big customer only does Mac, so why not. Can somebody give me an update about the known problems and sollutions regarding Mac and Flash.
