Can't open Adobe Flash for SWF file...keeps opening Install Manager instead.

[Nicole Maddern]

Hi, I need to open a SWF file made from InDesign (interactive PDF). And when I click on it, Adobe Flash Install Manager keeps popping up with an uninstall manager. I've re-downloaded it three times, re-installed it 3 times. It's just not working. Any suggestions?

I'm on a Macbook Pro if it matters.

To view a local SWF you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

You mean Adobe Flash Player correct (as seen in the link)? I've installed it from there but it doesn't seem to work. The same problem keeps happening.

That sounds like your file association for .swf files is broken.  Sorry, I have no idea how to change that on a Mac.
