Hi everyone,
Umm.. this is CornPop's girlfriend. I have a really basic and likely silly question. I was wondering if I were to make something in Flash 5.0 in a Windows environment, would I be able to open and edit that file on a Mac? I was under the impression that most (if not all) Macromedia products were cross-platform compatible, but for some reaseon I had problems doing this. I couldn't edit my file when I tried to open it on a Mac. I could only view it in the Flash Player. Does anyone have any ideas?
I'm sorry if this isn't exactly a digital art question, but I'm hoping that it is close enough to not have this thread closed. Thanks very much in advance for any information you could provide...
Thanks,
Amanda |

Flash 5.0 is cross platform, you can edit your windows files on a mac.
Hope it helps...
