How to download old version of Flash Authoring tool?

[simpledot]

I need to export some ads, targeting Flash Player 4 - 9. My version of Animate (v18.0.2, build 126) only targets Flash Player 10+, so I assume I need to download an earlier version of Animate or Flash. Where can I get a link to download a sufficiently old version of Flash for Mac?

if you have a cc subscription, you can install back to cs6 as part of your subscription via your cc app:

click the 3 dots at the cc app's upper right > preferences > creative cloud > tick 'show older apps'.

then: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html

pre-cs6 versions would be trials installed by direct download:

• Download and installation help for Adobe links

• Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages.  They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3 which also apply to eLearning Sute 2.5.  If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.

And a big thank you to Jim @ Prodesigntools for helping me with these links!
