Flash Player Problems in Mac OS X
If you’re having issues with Flash apps (like our live stream), this thread in Adobe’s forums may surface a solution for you.
According to my friend Gyula Feher at Ustream.tv: “We have a good reason to think that the problem is caused by a Leopard-specific bug of the latest r115 Mac version of Adobe Flash Player. The reason why it got triggered by the 10.5.2 update is because 10.5.2 also upgraded Flash Player. Forum posts indicate that downgrading to a recent (r47) version of Flash Player fixes the issue. Download the older version of Flash Player 9 from Adobe and install r47. Following the downgrade, you may check your Flash Version by right-clicking on any Flash widget and selecting ‘About Flash Player’ from the menu.”

Might it be that this is also the cause of Flash url links not working on a mac with Safari?

Thank you so much for this information – I have been without Flash for a couple of months and been pulling my hair out trying to figure out why.
You are a star – thank you

Thanks for this. I work at a hotel in Prague, and I had been having problems with Flash on the Macs in the office. Now that I know this, I no longer have to bring in my own personal laptop for work. Thanks a bunch.

I started having the same problem after a security update from Apple and I have OSX 10.4 on a ppc mac. After I installed Flash 9.0 r47 everything went back to normal.
