At some point I'd posted some method for patching a Flash player so it would appear as 11.5.502... and thought to try & find it among previous discussions; and for some reason I could only go back 500 discussions. So I did not find that post.


Given the Flash player is essentially obsolete for the outdated OS X version(s) the patch is a way to allow some sites and some content to load in a browser that otherwise may not. However because it is not improved regularly, there is content that probably won't work even if you use the patch and run a later version.


The instructions are in a read-me richtext file in the patch folder; the Plugin update is included and you swap out the older plugin with a newer 11.5.xx included in the download file. It seems to do OK and my older Macs can use it. (Even my early Intel-based MacBook with Leopard 10.5.8 has a patch, since it hasn't a current Flash either.) See their 'read first' file to see what you need to do to get the patch to work. Save the old part in another folder so you could revert it. And test the Flash player version after the patch update. This does not use a regular installer; you re-use part of the existing Flash player

You can use the Adobe Flash Player help site to test a version, get another (vintage) version in their older version section archive; or test a version in any Mac that can go online to see what (if any) is running in it.

Given the moving-target nature of the internet web page content, browser and OS

technology update or change, and obsoletism of various products, you cannot

expect these items to last; you will have to upgrade the system at some point, and

because the hardware limits you in PowerPC (and other) a newer computer device

is another prospect if you require an online presence and need Flash player plugins.


You could try other web browsers, re: iCab http://www.icab.de/dl.php (runs Demo)

TenFourFox no longer sees Flash player. http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/


FireFox is no longer supported past an old versions in PowerPC Mac 10.4/10.5.


Some video content uses HTML5 so you can check to see if any browsers you use

can be adapted to more readily try to use that when available and not rely on Flash.

PS: the last link regarding HTML5 player comparison is not one

that shows specific ones for OS X systems; it is a reference item.


For a history of HTML5 Uptake, refer to this page from same site.

The patch mentioned in earlier may work for most site to use Flash.


Good luck & happy computing! 🙂
