I have been sent a number of .swf files as attachments. I wish to view these within Mac OS X. I used to drag them directly into Safari and it would display them. However, after installing Safari 4 I only get a blank white window content when I do this.
How can I view these files on my Mac for free?
Similar to @hasseg's answer, I recently got a fresh Mavericks laptop and was able to play .swf files in Chrome 35 from my harddrive with no problem. playerversion.com says I have flash version MAC 14.0.0.125.

I am guessing folks who it worked for had a setting or something and have forgot, but who knows. Hope that helps someone. – joedragons – 2015-02-25T22:21:13.390
2Drag the swf into Chrome. It was the flash player in it by default. – Kyle Pennell – 2015-04-02T17:00:56.767
