In the Publish settings you have the option of making a Mac projector. The output is a hqx file ( Mac's version of Zip ) that has to be opened on a mac where it should play just fine.

I am sorry, I should have been more clear.

I have an .exe file that I did not make, and want to play it on a mac (OS 10.2.5).
A client sent this .exe for me to check out... I do not have access to the source flas. Any ideas on how to play this .exe?

Its not possible to my knowledge. maybe a 3rd party program can extract the swf in it but im not shure unfortunately.

Call your client and ask for a swf ?

Northcode has a free exe2swf tool... :)

I know there are more of them but when I googled it, 200 chinese and russian sites came out... :confused:

Hope this helps...
