Hi All, Turns out the title of this thread is true - Adobe have confirmed for me: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/865079
>From Adobe: Hi, With the arrival of Lion and XCode 4 changes, in addition to the many graphics models to support across the various OSX versions, the cost of supporting OSX 10.4/10.5 increases significantly. There is a tradeoff – investing effort in trying to bring new features like Molehill to 10.4 and 10.5 would have come at the expense of other new features in Flash Player 11 and AIR 3. The other benefit of upping the system requirements is that we are able to remove legacy code and work on rearchitecting the Mac player for better performance and stability. best, Emmy Huang Group Product Manager, Adobe AIR & Flash Player On Jun 15, 1:25 pm, Jahiro <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks! > > On Jun 15, 1:18 am, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > > > > > > > this seems to have link to same file let us know if it works but to > > large to email. > > >http://3eye.lolipop.jp/xml/?p=424 > > > On 14 Jun 2011, at 06:31, Jahiro Himalaya wrote: > > > > Hi Justin, > > > > I was wondering if you still have the original FP11 incubator > > > install that works with OSX10.5?
