TPET  I'm very surprised to see this is only 32-bit. Then again, I was surprised to see that Shockwave is still a separate product .. and not totally merged into Flash at this point.

MAC5  Adobe have produced some great stuff over the years, but they have also become arrogant because of their market share.

Apple is without doubt a rising star with a solid future. Their OS is second to none, and if Adobe wants to ignore Mac users they might just find their market share shrinking. Apple are savvy enough to bypass many of these big software companies that have held the high ground for so long.

Its survival of the fittest.. and if you are an IT vendor you need to release both software and hardware that works for the end user. It also needs to be user friendly and realistically priced.

It also has to be multi platform and up to date.

Apple advertised some time ago that it was moving to 64 bit.

Apple users are growing at a rapid pace world wide. Any company, no matter how large could easily find its sales sliding very rapidly if it ignores market trends. There are always other new companies just waiting in the wings to fill the void.

Adobe needs to wake up and take heed of comments made by Apple users around the globe.

MACMAN8  Pengirl- I had the same question some time ago. I also had an issue with Flash downloads. I called their tech support line, and after explaining the issues to their support agent, I was "disconnected" quickly. I spoke with a tech friend of mine, and he had me do the download for Safari, thinking it would work on both. Who knows? Your guess is as good as mine here. Adobe is a great company, their software is tops, but I was disappointed with the way my call was received and handled.

PENGUIRL  First of all, what is the difference between the Slim and Full installers Adobe? Languages? Second of all, when downloading from the Adobe website you have to choose between Safari (webkit) and Firefox (mozilla). What if I use both engines? Or Opera?

Another lame effort by Adobe.

TEXSPLEEN  Noticed a lot of dissatisfaction with Flash being 32 bit in the comments. My personal opinion is that Apple has some surprises up its sleeve with future Webkit releases. Got a feeling Flash wont be needed in Safari as video playback etc will be built into the browser? Browser plugins days are numbered.

ILGAZ  While casual gaming and Mac market share is on amazing rise, they don't even bother to compile it 64bit or write 10 lines of text to release notes. I bet they didn't bother to submit new file, Mac update admins found it themselves.

Basically shows what is wrong with Adobe, in all kinds of senses.

SECTION8  LOL@32 bit mode. WTF Adobe - get your act together.

MRGLSMRC  it is unfortunate that apple and adobe are having a tiff right now which is covered in ars technica.

i sure would like a version of shockwave that can run in 64-bit mode in snow leopard.

i also want a version of flash that runs in the iphone browser.

let's hope these two giants can come to a corporate understanding because so many of us have large software investments in both companies and this erodes our confidence in both brands.

if private industry can't get things right under capitalism, then it becomes pragmatic to avoid expensive proprietary software and search for open-source solutions for enterprise. these companies should know better than to gerry-rig their own products.

MACZERO  Is it a joke? The 11.5.2 version requires the Safari runs in 32-bit mode? What's wrong with it, Snow Leopard is now running 64-bit native! I uninstalled immediately upon installation. crazy application. It just doesn't make sense.
