Re: FLASH: crashing flash on mac

[Jayma]

I have also been told that you cannot have two versions of IE loaded on the

same MAC.  Actually, it has to do with one of the Libs.  I can't remember

right now, but I will find out and let you know.  All you have to do is

remove the Lib to the version that you are not using from your sys. folder.

Depending on which one you want to run, all you have to do is swap the

files.


I never put two & two together, but after I removed the other IE from my

computer, just because it wasn't working right, I haven't had any crashes

in Flash.  I attributed it more to upping the Flash memory to 59MB ram.

Could be a combo of both?  But I don't think I will get to lazy about

backups, just in case my luck runs out!
