Flash THIS! Mac OS X and Flash Audio

Tuesday, September 12th, 2006

Recently, the audio on Flash movies viewed in all web browsers stopped playing on my iMac. And apparently, I’m not the only one. Starting GarageBand fixes the issue temporarily, so I’ve ruled out the problem being exclusively an Adobe-created one; upgrading to Flash Player 9.0.2 didn’t change things.

In fact, initially, installing the update created more problems. I ended up having to run a disk repair utility because the volume information on my boot drive was mangled, and some permissions on Flash files got hosed.
