Looking for FP 10.1 installer

According to info found on this site, FP 10.1 is the latest version you can run on a Mac which does not have an Intel processor. I have a mac G4 Power PC with OS 10.4.11 running FP 9.something. The latest videos appear as black screens with no play button (probably because FP needs to support H.264). In Adobe help this link:

Executable installers can be downloaded from this page http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

Takes you to FP 10.2. Can someone please direct me to FP 10.1 install?

Thanks

    Hi, You will need to look at these links and info:

    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html              Older Archives

    Flash Player 10.1 (81.7 MB)

       http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402435.html               Install an Earlier Version of Flash Player

    That zip file above is for ALL platforms of FP vs 10.1 which is 81.7 MB. Then you'll need to find the version you want and extract it. Be sure to use the Flash Player Uninstaller first, which should be in that kb2 article.

    Hi, The Flash Player version you want is 10.1.102.64. When you look at that you'll see a readme text file. From there you'll find the one you want. Use that one.

    Here is a link to an Apple discussion on the G5:

    Another Thread from Apple Discussions on the Power Mac G5

    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2784212&start=0&tstart=0     The person needing help is skyflynbeachbum and the helper

    is powerbook 1701. Pages 1-3 and sky was able to Install FP vs 10.1.102.64 and it worked.

    There are other users posting also, but follow the two above.

    Thanks,

    Thanks eidnolb. I found and downloaded an archive folder which contained two zip files of FP 10.1 for mac:

    Flashplayer10_1r82_76_mac_sa.app.zip

    Flashplayer10_1r53_64_mac_sa.app.zip

    I'll try installing one and, hopefully, this will allow me to watch the latest movies.

    I currently have 9.0.262.0 installed so I should not have a problem installing the newer one, although I may uninstall the old one first.

    Thanks again,

    Hi, No those aren't the ones you want. The "sa" means standalone.

    I'll see what else I have.
