[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1346178"] Macs aren't pre-loaded with Flash anymore because it is CONSTANTLY being revised and updated, mostly due to security issues. This began with the MacBook Air, but I have to point out that Windows doesn't come with Flash pre-loaded either. As for where you download it, well ... um ... maybe adobe.com? Just sayin' ... Bad newbie! Wrong!! :) Safari (and Firefox, come to think of it all browsers nowadays) use TABS for multiple "windows," not actual separate windows. Try it, you'll like it. PS. How to close multiple separate windows from the same application? Command-q, ie quit. You'll find over time that MOST Windows commands that used "control" this or that work on Mac with COMMAND this or that. The command key is the one next to the spacebar on either side. It'll take a while for your fingers to adapt, but it generally works the same. I'd also recommend [URL="http://www.apple.com/support/switch101/"]Switch 101[/URL] and [URL="http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/"]Mac 101[/URL] for you to help you get acclimated. Congrats on the new Mac! [/QUOTE]
