Swf Player Download Free
It's in the bottom-right corner of the window. Doing so will open your SWF file inside of Elmedia Player; if the SWF file is a video file, it will begin playing automatically. Not all SWF files can be played in Elmedia Video Player. If the file doesn't open, you probably won't be able to play it on Mac. Click the “Download the Flash Player projector content debugger” link under Windows, Mac, or Linux, depending on which operating system you’re using. On Windows, you’ll have an EXE file that needs no installation.
Mac Swf Player
If you use Flip4Mac's WMV Player ($10; free demo available) to play WMV files in QuickTime, you're probably annoyed that you can't simply drag 'n' drop WMVs onto QuickTime Player's icon.
It's also a bit of a secret these days that QuickTime Player can play (some) Flash (.swf) files. But again, you can't drag 'n' drop them.
Here's how to enable drag-and-drop for both WMV and SWF files (Note: you'll probably need an administrator password to complete these steps):
1. Control-click QuickTime Player (in /Applications), and select 'Show Package Contents'. (Make sure QuickTime Player is not loaded.)
2. Open the Contents/Info.plist file in any text editor, like TextEdit or BBEdit.
3. You'll see a bunch of HTML-like tags. Make a new line after this: And paste in this: 4. Save your changes. If you get an error message saying you don't permission, follow these steps:
4a. Choose 'Save As...' from the file menu, and save your Info.plist file onto the desktop.
4b. In the Finder, drag the new Info.plist file you just saved over the old one (inside QuickTime Player). When the Finder asks you if you want to replace, say yes, and enter your administrator password at the prompt.
5. In the Finder, move QuickTime Player to a different folder (it doesn't matter what folder; I used /Applications/Utilities), and then move it back into /Applications. This is necessary to force OS X to update its database of what file types applications can accept.
6. Load QuickTime Player, and try dragging a WMV or SWF file onto its icon in the Dock. It works now! You're done!
Again, keep in mind that QuickTime Player can NOT play all SWF files. I guess (I'm not really sure) that it can only play ones made with older versions of Flash, which is why they took out the drag-and-drop ability they had in previous versions of QuickTime Player. *shrug*
