Adobe Flash Player 11 Hack PowerPC PPC Flash Player 11 How-To (see Apple Discussions thread 3599648https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3599648?tstart=0):
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.ziphttp://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip
to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your
main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one
doesn't work. With this hack Adobe Flash Player 10 will report as Adobe Flash Player 11.
(10.1.102.64 10,1,102,64 will report as 11.1.102.55 11,1,102,55).
