I fell in love with Macromedia Flash 5 a decade ago but i never got to grips with Actionscript. For the last ten years i have been using Flash 5 for drawing and animating really simple movies. It's time to change!Unfortunately the last time i considered upgrading (Flash MX) the new interface was simply too complicated for me and the walk-thru tutorials that came with Flash 5 (which were brilliant) were no longer there.Can you please recommend a recent version of Adobe Flash that will support the learning of a complete newbie to a stage of basic Actionscipt competence?
ing my hands in web designing and development. I have basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, Java Script but have never used Dreamweaver/ Flash or any such software. I am looking for some guidance from your side on this. Please let me know -
1.) Is Flash a free software to use or do I need to purchase one to use in websites?
2.) Please let me know some good tutorials that can help me in learning the things quickly.
3.) What are the other products I need for designing. Just wanted to let you know that I am going to try my hands in professional development.

Are there any plans to upgrade the SDK to version 8 or 9 or release a updated flash version for the Wii. It's ridiculous that Adobe has not done this already considering the sheer volume of people using the Wii web browser.
I identify my current installed debug version? Basically, I am using Flex 3, for past 2-3 days whenever I launch any Project or debug it, I get the message box saying "Flex Builder requires a more recent version of Flash Player." It says my curent FP as 9.0.115.0 and debug version as 9.0.45.0. However, my actual FP version if FP 10.0.22.87. I don't understand why this confussion! I don't know how can I know my actual version of Debug player.

I have called Adobe roughly a dozen times today to speak to someone about purchasing the developer "incident support bundle." I've been told to call about a dozen different numbers, and still have not had any luck.
In your opinion what is the best version of PHP for flash when you use flash to write information to mysql database or retrieve information?What I'm trying to get at is what is the most commonly used version of PHP that works real well with Flash.

We generate a LOT of swfs where I work. We've got a group of people managing putting the swfs into our asset management system. These people do NOT have flash or anything adobe. However, they need to be able to determine the AS setting on the swfs. Is there a tool (preferably cheap or even free) that can be used to determine the Actionscript level of a swf?
In FlashBuilder's compiler options (Properties->Flex Compiler), under "Adobe Flash Player options" there is an option for "Use a specific version", where you can tell it what Flash Player to link against:
How do I get this value at runtime? Note that I am not talking about the Flash Player version, but the version that the swf was linked against.
My artist just upgraded to Flash CS5, and ended up with Flash CS5.5. I've got Flash CS5, and can't read his files. "The document 'blahblahblah.fla' was created with 'Adobe Flash Professional CS5.5' and cannot be opened in this version of Flash." Did Adobe really bollix up the normal convention of software version numbering(#.001 - #.999 signifies compatibility) or is there something else going on?
This is a silly question.. I have been away from flash for a while and looking to get back in and also upgrade from 2004 MX. Is the Adobe Flash Pro CS 5.5 the latest version?
Creating a CD to hand out with a pdf on it. i'd like to check for Adobe version or if reader is installed in flash menu (exe) before they're allowed to open it. then have them download latest from [URL] if not installed. seems fairly simple, just not finding anywhere that will give guidance.
I'm using CS5 flash professional to build a swf. I have it publishing to flash 8, actionscript 2. but it will only work with browsers that have 10.1+ plugins, no matter what I try. is there something really obvious that I'm missing? Edit: I'm using swfobject.embed. it looks like this: swfobject.embedSWF("/foo.swf", "myContent", "400", "300", "9.0.0", "/foo.swf", flashvars);
Have one. Fla (Flash) file that uses ActionScript 1.0. Need to have it in version 3.0 and was wondering if there is any easy way to convert it? My knowledge of ActionScript is basically nonexistent. Have access to Adobe Flash CS5.
However, when I copy the directory to my windows CE 6.0 R3 device, the page that opens abc2.swf shows correctly. But the page that is supposed to open abc1.swf just shows a blank white area.
I am pretty sure that the abc1.swf is only supposed to redirect to abc2.swf (or put within a frame) given it's 1kb size and the fact that I can see the text abc2.swf within it when opened in notepad.
I've been told that the flash player built into Windows CE 6.0 R3 is only capable of supporting flash v8 or less. I suspect that perhaps the issue with abc.swf could be that it was built with a newer version of flash such as v9 or v10.
Is there any way for me to tell which version of flash a given .swf file requires using only freely available tools? Or, does anyone have any other theories about what would cause abc1.swf to work on my PC but not on my windows CE device?
My program is a 64-bit C#.NET application running on Win 7.I want to check if the 64-bit Flash Player version "10.2.161.23" is installed in my system or not.
I thought I would share a little script i just wrote that lets me find out what users have flash 8 and what users don't. I'm using it on People with Flash 8+ will have pngs loaded, and everyone else will see jpgs on white backgroundsI know this isnt a "version checker" per say but it will at least tell you who doesnt have flash player 8.
function checkVersion() { var v = new flash.filters.BlurFilter(1, 1); return (v ? 8 : 7);
