The Adobe Flash Player is a widely distributed proprietary multimedia and application player created by Macromedia and now developed and distributed by Adobe after its acquisition. Flash Player runs SWF files that can be created by the Adobe Flash authoring tool, by Adobe Flex or by a number of other Macromedia and third party tools. Adobe Flash, or simply Flash, refers to both a multimedia authoring program and the Adobe Flash Player, written and distributed by Adobe, that uses vector and raster graphics, a native scripting language called ActionScript and bidirectional streaming of video and audio. Strictly speaking, Adobe Flash is the authoring environment and Flash Player is the virtual machine used to run the Flash files, but in colloquial language these have become mixed: Flash can mean either the authoring environment, the player, or the application files. Flash Player has support for an embedded scripting language called ActionScript (AS), which is based on ECMAScript. Since its inception, ActionScript has matured from a script syntax without variables to one that supports object-oriented code, and may now be compared in capability to JavaScript (another ECMAScript-based scripting language).

Updates : Adobe Flash Player for Mac Updates
Adobe Update For Mac Os X
The Adobe Flash Player page on compatibility by operating system and latest version of Flash Player only mentions SeaMonkey under the Linux operating system. Under Mac OS it mentions Safari, etc. Apple posted Mac OS X 10.6.4 this past Tuesday, five days after Adobe released the final version of Flash Player 10.1 The Snow Leopard update patched a number of system bugs and a bunch of issues. I'm working on a iMac 12.1 and i'm really happy to have my favourite Snow Leopard 10.6.8 OS, althought there are several problems with Adobe Flash Player. My internet browsers (Safari, Firefox, Chrome - tried everyone) can't show a frame with streamed video.
