Question

Notification from Adobe regarding Flash Player Updates

Hello,

I work with a county wide non profit library system and we seem to have issues every so often with bringing up websites that use Adobe Flash to run their video player and game functionalities within the websites.   I've contacted Adobe to try and find out if there's any way at all that we could get on an email Distribution list to notify us everytime the Flash Player application plug-in for the web gets updated.  This would give us a "heads-up" pro active approach to this issue and allow us to serve our patrons more efficiently and effectively rather than waiting till we get complaints that our PCs aren't running Flash on them when we know that we are and the build just isn't the same.

Any Help would be appreciated.

Mike

    And - did you hear back anything from Adobe?

    I don't think there is such a thing as an email distribution list for updates.  However, there are websites like http://www.calendarofupdates.com/updates/index.php?app=calendar or http://www.majorgeeks.com/ where all kinds of software updates are published daily.

    There is also http://www.cnet.com/techtracker/ where you can subscribe to various softwares, and you will get email notifications of available updates.

    P.S. do not publish your email address in a public forum like this, unless you want it to end up on multiple spammers lists.

    I tried copying and pasting the link to http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager05.html, but it came up with a sorry message about the link not working. i clicked on it directly from the notification email I received from adobe and it worked, it does already have a checkbox in the manager and it is checked and set for 7 days, however I receive no emails or haven't anyway so far.

    However, I do appreciate any/all help and suggestions provided.


    Thank you

    Mike
