Apr 2, 2012 1:51 AM in response to simkhob523by Kenichi Watanabe,The last version that works with PowerPC Macs running Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or later is Flash Player 10.1 (specifically 10.1.102.64). I have it on my Power Mac G5.
You can find it here
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
in a download of "archived" Flash Player versions
On that web page, look down the list of downloads. The one you want is
(Released 11/04/2010) Flash Player 10.1.102.64 and 9.0.289.0 (126 MB)
Within this download, find
Flash Player 10.1.102.64
10_1r102_64
flashplayer10_1r102_64_ub_mac.dmg
That should be the installer you need.
NOTE: Depending on the performance capability of your G4 Mac, playing Flash-based video content, especially "HD" content, may be difficult.

Apr 3, 2012 6:46 AM in response to simkhob523by Texas Mac Man,Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://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.
Cheers, Tom
