10/13/2019 Osx Adobe Flash Mac
Mar 26, 2018 - Adobe Flash Player is a free software plug-in used by web browsers. Adobe Flash Player for the Mac is a plug-in, not a Mac OS X application.
Stage 3D Accelerated Graphics Rendering (Player & AIR desktop + AIR for TV) Stage 3D is a new architecture for hardware accelerated graphics rendering developed that provides a set of low-level APIs that enable advanced 2D and 3D rendering capabilities across screens and devices (desktop, mobile, and TV). Using Stage 3D, app and framework developers can now access high performance GPU hardware acceleration, enabling the creation of new classes of rich, interactive experiences. Note: Stage 3D for mobile versions of Flash Player & AIR will be enabled in a future releaseEnter your state here. Flash Access Content Protection Support for Mobile Flash Access content protection support is now available on mobile devices including Android powered smartphones and tablets. In addition, content protection is now supported on tablet devices powered by the BlackBerry® Tablet OS. Note: Flash Access for iOS is not supported at this time. Flash Access Content Protection Enhancements New Flash Access content protection features include key rotation support, V3 license chaining, domain support and enhanced output protection and device filtering.
Protected HTTP Dynamic Streaming (HDS) Protected HTTP Dynamic Streaming (HDS) provides protection for streaming video across screens while eliminating the deployment complexity of a license server. NetStream.dispose Similar to NetStream.close except that it also clears up the last frame held up by NetStream to be displayed on the Video object.
Use this instead of NetStream.close if the NetStream is to be re-used for other streams later. It enforces garbage collection of the video frame and related decompressor objects.
The video object will display a blank frame after the use of this method. H.264/AVC Software Encoding for Cameras (desktop) Stream high-quality video from your computer's camera with higher compression efficiency and industry stanard support, enabling both immersive real-time communications such as video chat/conferencing and live video broadcasts. JPEG-XR support Flash Player and AIR now include support for the JPEG-XR advanced image compression standard (International Standard ISO/IEC 29199-2). The computationally lightweight JPEG-XR format provides more efficient compression than JPEG, enables both lossy and lossless compression support, and adds support for alpha channel transparency. Enhanced high resolution bitmap support BitmapData objects are no longer limited to a maximum resolution of 16 megapixels (16,777,215 pixels), and maximum bitmap width/height is no longer limited to 8,191 pixels, enabling the development of apps that utilize very large bitmaps. High efficiency SWF compression support Developers can now take advantage of LZMA compression for their SWF files.
LZMA compression can reduce SWF size by up to 40%, enabling users to benefit from richer experiences with shorter download times and reduced bandwidth consumption. G.711 Audio Compression for Telephony Support interoperability with legacy phone systems via the Flash Media Gateway (FMG) and other third-party clients (through the open RTMP protocol) without the need for transcoding. Native JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) Support Allows ActionScript developers to take advantage of high performance native parsing and generation of JSON-formatted data. Garbage Collection Advice Provides smoother, more responsive user experiences by allowing developers to provide hints to optimize garbage collection scheduling. Cubic Bezier Curves The cubicCurveTo drawing API allows developers to easily create complex cubic Beziers without requiring custom ActionScript code. Secure Random Number Generator Developers can now take advantage of cryptographically secure random number generation to build more secure algorithms and protocols. Socket Progress Events Improve management of data transfer using the Socket class by providing a new property to determine the number of bytes remaining in the write buffer and a new event for when data is being sent to the network layer.

Using these new APIs, developers can build applications such as file transfer utilities that monitor socket progress and provide responsive feedback. DisplayObjectContainer.removeChildren and MovieClip.isPlaying DisplayObjectContainer now implements a removeChildren API allowing developers to quickly remove all of a container's children using a single API call. A new MovieClip.isPlaying property returns the MovieClip's current playing state. New Features in Flash Player 11 Native 64-bit Support (Flash Player desktop) — Take advantage of native support for 64-bit operating systems and 64-bit web browsers on Linux, Mac OS, and Windows. Asynchronous Bitmap Decoding (new for Flash Player) — Improve app responsiveness and deliver smoother animation by decoding images on initial load instead of on demand. Images are cached as needed. TLS Secure Sockets Support (new for Flash Player) — Enables secure communications for client/server applications.
What's New: In today's release, we've updated Flash Player with critical security and functional bug fixes. We recommend all customers upgrade to this version. For those organizations that use the Extended Support Release (ESR), please note that we have incremented the ESR from version 13 to version 18 with today's update. Current Flash Player 18 users who have enrolled in the 'Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)' update mechanism will be automatically updated to the latest version of Flash Player over the next 24 hours. Users who have selected 'Notify me to install updates' will receive an update notification dialog within 7 days from today. Please note that Windows users will need to restart their system or log out and in to activate the update notification dialog. Flash Player can always be downloaded and installed by simply visiting Customers using Google Chrome or Windows 8.x Internet Explorer will receive the update through the Google and Microsoft update mechanisms.
Macs are not immune to, but they are pretty well-protected. By default, macOS won’t allow unrecognized apps to be installed, and it needs the user to agree to override this. Even when they are installed, sandboxing limits the damage that can be done, which is why most Mac malware is – annoying but not damaging. A common way for attackers to get malware onto a Mac is to disguise it as something else, to trick technically naive users into installing it. Fake installers for are particularly favored, and Malwarebytes has found a variant that’s nastier than usual. Usually, software like Malwarebytes can search for and remove malware automatically.
But a new version of Crossrider adware has a new trick to protect itself from removal, as the company’s explains. The malware changes the homepage in both Safari and Chrome, and doesn’t allow you to change it back again. After removing Advanced Mac Cleaner, and removing all the various components of Crossrider that have been littered around the system, there’s still a problem.
Safari’s homepage setting is still locked to a Crossrider-related domain, and cannot be changed. It turns out that this is caused by a configuration profile installed on the system by the adware. Configuration profiles provide a means for IT admins in businesses to control the behavior of their Macs. These profiles can configure a Mac to do many different things, some of which are not otherwise possible.
In the case of this Crossrider variant, the configuration profile that is installed forces both Safari and Chrome to always open to a page on chumsearchdotcom. This also prevents the user from changing that behavior in the browser’s settings. Even tracking it down in Profiles is tricky. This profile installs with an identifier of com.myshopcoupon.www, which is not visible in System Preferences. However, the profile can definitely be identified by scrolling through the details and looking for references to chumsearchdotcom.
Once you’ve found it, you can then delete it by clicking in the profile (in this case showing up as AdminPrefs) and then clicking the minus button below to remove it. Once this is done, you’ll be able to restart and change your homepage. Some would argue that the real thing is bordering on malware given the found in Flash. Very few websites these days require the platform, and I argued last year that it is. Check out the for more details.
