Flash Issue + OSX Snow Leopard = Problem

{ September 15th, 2009 }

********UPDATE************

Adobe® Flash® Player 10.1 is the first runtime release of the Open Screen Project that enables uncompromised Web browsing of expressive applications, content and video across devices. With support for a broad range of mobile devices, including smartphones, netbooks, smartbooks and other Internet-connected devices, Flash Player 10.1 allows your content to reach your customers wherever they are.

I did an uninstall of flash prior to installing this one.

It is available here http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html

From my experimentation it seems to clear up the issues that we had found with Flash on  OSX Snow Leopard

We have tested the release and have found it to clear up the issues that we reported to Adobe

There is a great write up about it here

Hope this clears things up for everyone.

****************************

We have found a considerable issue with Flash while running on 2 Macs with Snow Leopard.

Situation occurs during an upload sequence from flash. So anyone who has a Flash uploader on their site might want to take note. It appears that once a user proceeds through our upload sequence we have an issue where there seems

Scenario:

  1. User is within a Flash interface (ConceptShare)
  2. User selects to upload a file
  3. User initiates the system upload file dialog.
  4. User selects file.
  5. System Dialog window closes
  6. User is then forced to gain focus (multiple clicks) on all objects while browser remains open, or browser is restarted

This has been noted on two of our machines that are running Snow Leopard. The third machine that is not running Snow Leopard is not affected. All three machines have the same Flash Player installed which happens to be the most recent version.

We are looking at all things to remedy this issue, But it appears to be an Adobe issue. From what we have noted there are a few other people experienceing issues with uploaders around the web but no one has really put together the dots.

Cheers

Scott
