Macromedia Flash Basic 8 box

Macromedia Flash Basic 8 is one of the the last versions of the Flash authoring system to be released under the Macromedia name.

Features[]

Released in September 2005, the basic version includes core features to allow beginners to design simple motion graphics and interactivity. It contains a subset of the features in Macromedia Flash Professional 8.[1]

Product history[]

After Adobe Systems' acquisition of Macromedia in December 2005,[2] the professional version was succeeded by Adobe Flash CS3 Professional in Adobe Creative Suite 3, which was released in April 2007. The basic version was discontinued and replaced by a discounted educational version of Flash CS3 Professional.[3]

End of support[]

On December 15, 2012, the activation server for legacy Macromedia products was shut down.[4] Adobe provided a procedure to activate older applications from Macromedia Studio MX 2004, but not for applications from Macromedia Studio 8.[5]
