Flash Player 9 For PPC Macs – Help!

September 20, 2007 at 18:21 · Filed under Flash, Flex

I need a huge favor from someone. I need to find all the flash player 9 plugin files (/Library/Plug-Ins) For every version of flash player 9 (for PPC). The way to get all these plugins is to install players 9.0 – 9.0.60 from the archives page. After each install, go to the /Library/Plug-Ins folder and swipe the necessary flash plugins. Put them in a folder labeled 9.0.x for each version.

I can’t get them myself because I’m on an Intel mac, the PPC installers won’t install it. So please, if anyone out there has a spare 30 minutes and a PPC help me out and zip up those files on an FTP for me.

Hm, aren’t all the flash player version 9 universal binary ?
That mean that you’ll only get the arch depending on your env anyhow.
Maybe, the only way could be to juice the PPC part of the bin, there should have tools for that ?!

Actually the only version that didn’t come with universal binary is 9.0.20. Every release has PPC players. Not sure if there are tools to extract the binaries, I’ll have to check on that.

So I meant that every version in that archive has a specific PPC version in it. They also have universal binaries, except for 9.0.20.

Actually after looking at them a little more. It looks like they’re specifically for mac classic. I know the UB should run on Intel and PPC, but I was wondering why they would put PPC installers there. So it must be for classic.
