Hey there fellow Mac users - I was recently put onto a really useful little utility for correcting file creator types on any PC-made Flash files you've downloaded from the web.

It is called DropConversion and using ResEdit you can go in and set up the creator types of any file so you can have an easy drag and drop conversion back to their native state. Search the usual shareware spots for it. Saves loads of time.
BTW - I am not affiliated with this product, I just think it's pretty cool.

I made this Mac flash typer with a shareware app "Filetyper", just drop your files in to the app and it changes their type (the files need to have the right extension: ".swf" or ".fla")...its freeware, check it, use it, love it!!!

the app is compressed with dropstuff ,".sit" but i change the extension to .zip so i can upload the file, don't worry it will expand anyway.

:cool:

Nice one!
That does the same thing as the one I'm referring to - except you have taken the need for any setup out of it!

Cheers,
