Adobe Flash v10.2?

Is anyone else seeing v10.2 as the most recent ("recommended") version but also seeing the current version (v10.1.102.64) as the only version available for download? Weird:

Version check: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

Download: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?promoid=BUIGP

Download (direct link): http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html

 

Yes, I get the same. I even downloaded it, and it shows 10.1.102.64. I guess a new version is coming out, and they changed the recommended version before changing the other information, and before uploading it? Or, they have placed the information for 10.2 by mistake.

 

10.2.x.x is the beta

Yeah, but it's showing up as the "most recent version" on the version information page.

 

I'm getting this in Chrome/Iron:

Your Google Chrome browser already includes Adobe® Flash® Player built-in. Google Chrome will automatically update when new versions of Flash Player are available.

 

v10.2 will most likely be released at the same time as IE9RC1, the same way the original 10.2 beta was released with the IE9 beta.

I wonder if they abandoned the 64bit version....

 

Not sure, but seemingly still available --> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html

 

Adobe website corrected. Now showing 10.1 as the most stable recommended version.

 

I've got a strange feeling that Adobe did something like this last time.

 

Why does Adobe want to do that ?

 

im using the beta and its working fine..

 

A weird marketing strategy perhaps?

 

Oh yeah & before I forget, does anyone take any notice of You may have to temporarily disable your antivirus software?

 

i saw that and i never had to disable any of them

 

Yeah, I installed that also - no issues thus far.

EDIT: Funny thing is it seems Adobe isn't hosting the latest build. I got 10.2.152.14 from another site (can't recall whether it was filehippo or softpedia).

 

yeah softpedia is hosting the newer ones. and they are labeled as rc so it should be final soon enough

 

Yeah, I never have either. I'm not too happy disabling my AV to download something.

 

They did do the same thing last time. They may have done it before, but last time was the first time I noticed it.

Filehippo shows 10.2.152.14 RC (Release Candidate, or Beta) as the latest version.

I assume that when a person is set up for automatic updating, it doesn't update until the final stable version is available. At least one would hope that's how it works. They probably just make the beta available if someone wants to try it. But I wish they'd do more to make it known that it's not the final release. Even "beta" would be better than "RC." I had to go searching to even find out what that means.

 

I suppose it's one way to get people to test their beta software ...

 

Well, 10.2 RC2 is now available at the Adobe Labs site:

http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html

I installed it and it returns a version number of 10.2.152.21

 

...and no 64 bit version.

 

Nope, gotta go here for that --> http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_square.html

 

It has been updated to 10.2.152.26

 

As expected, with IE9 RC1 due tomorow.

So pretty much no hope of 64bit being with the 10.2 version as far as I can see, expect more delays.

 

According to this, it supports 64-bit. Or, are you talking about something specific?
