Ok, the issue here isn't that the tutorial isn't correct. The main difference is that Flash CS6 housed those folders in the
/Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/language/Configuration
Folder while CC houses them in the Application Package itself. So follow the same tutorial but realize that everything is in the
/Applications/Adobe Flash CC/Adobe Flash CC.app/Contents/Common/Configuration/
Folder instead. Remember that to enter the Adobe Flash CC.app part you'll just need to right click the app in Finder and select "Show Package Contents" from the context menu.
Here are the directions:
- Go to http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#playerglobal to download the Flash Player 10.1 playerglobal.swc file
- Navigate to your /Applications/Adobe Flash CC/Adobe Flash CC.app/Contents/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0 folder and create a new folder amongst the other FPxx.x folders named "FP10.1" and place your newly downloaded playerglobal.swc file in there. Note: The downloaded file is named playerglobal10_1.swc. Make sure to rename it to just playerglobal.swc.
- Now head back to the ../Configurations folder (right outside of the ActionScript 3.0 folder) and go into your "Players" folder. There will be a number of XML files in here. Find the one named "FlashPlayer10_3.xml", dupilcate it and rename it to "FlashPlayer10_1.xml".
- You'll need a text editor for this part. Open the newly duplicated file and change the references to "10.3" to "10.1" (a find/replace should do nicely here), save and you're done.
- Restart Flash CC and you should have a new option in your export settings for "Flash Player 10.1".
If this doesn't work you may need to add the SWC to your Flash Movie. You can do that by opening Flash and:
- Go to File >> ActionScript Settings
- In the dialog box that pops up, there are three tabs in the middle. Select the second tab labeled "Library Path"
- On that tab is a file listing tree that lists, SWC and ANE file locations associated with your Flash Movie or ActionScript file. Above that directory tree is a toolbar of buttons. The fourth button (which looks like a polaroid of the Flash Logo) will allow you to navigate to your SWC file to manually link it into your movie. Select that button, browse to your file and click "Open"
- Click OK in Actionscript Settings to accept the changes.
- Save your file, export again.
