Get a free standalone Flash player from Adobe
Authored by: Mr. H on Feb 20, '07 09:36:27AM

QuickTime doesn't play most of the SWFs that I have. Most that I try to open result in the always helpful "Error Opening Movie" alert from QT, stating that "The movie could not be opened" with one button, ironically labelled "OK".

I don't know why these files won't open in QT (some of them used to, obviously some QT update broke something), but they open and play fine in the stand-alone player from Adobe.

Go into Quicktime.prefPane in System Preferences and check 'Enable Flash' on the Advanced Tab.

It was disabled because QT's Flash component is very out of date.
