    Anyone know where I can purchase FLASH MX

    NOT MX 2004 (its crap).
    Looking for a brand new inbox copy of Flash Mx (upgrade version is better).

    Since MX 2004 can't save beyond Flash MX, Im in need and hurry to get at least MX so I can save the document from Mx 2004 > MX > To Flash 5 (which is what I am working in).


    If you have it for sale; or know of a Legitimate site selling the full or upgrade version, please let me know ASAP.

    Flash 5? What do you need that for (sorry for asking if you don't want to answer).

    Have you tried MM?

    I have Flash 5. I've never upgraded because MX never appealed to me (hard to work in/with/to like). But because I have a document authored in MX 2004, which I hate beyond one could have over a product, I need to convert it from MX 2004 > MX which is what 2004 can only do. And from MX > conver to Flash 5 because the rest of my site is built with it. Can't open MX files in Flash 5

    Ha ha, that's a good question. I've browsed that site but never bought off of there. Must be out of stock. Sorry.

    and I guess you miss the part where I have site built in Flash 5, and you can't open Flash MX/MX 2004 in Flash 5. The fact that they took away the Basic Mode in the Action Panel in MX 2004 is already a reason its not worth investing in the upgrade to MX 2004.

    whole scenes? i have about 30 scenes in the document that I would have to "copy and paste...."


    Edit : tried, but Copying frames from MX 2004 wont paste into Flash 5. I have both programs opened, and they dont recognize each other's copy/paste. I can't open Flash MX 2004 in Flash 5; and since Flash MX 2004 can't save as Flash 5, opening The Flash 5 document in Flash MX 2004 is pointless.

    I really enjoy forgetting. When I first come to a place, I notice all the little details. I notice the way the sky looks. The color of white paper. The way people walk. Doorknobs. Everything. Then I get used to the place and I don't notice those things anymore. So only by forgetting can I see the place again as it really is.

    But yo can open Flas 5 files in MX.

    So, what's the issue?

    He needs to save the files back to F5 format I suppose. That's what I got from what he wrote, anyways.

    since Flash MX 2004 can't save as Flash 5, opening The Flash 5 document in Flash MX 2004 is pointless.
    The whole problem is that he has MX, but it's MX 2004. He needs the earlier version.
