This article applies to Adobe Connect versions that supports Adobe Connect add-in. Starting Nov 2017, Adobe introduced the new Adobe Connect application for desktop that replaces the old Adobe Connect add-in for Adobe Connect version 9.x and later. If you are on Adobe Connect version 8 or earlier, you can continue to use Adobe Connect add-in.
The latest version of Adobe Connect Add-in is 11.9.966.0 for Windows and 11.9.959.0 for Mac OS.
Adobe Connect Add-in is needed for functionality specific to meeting hosts and presenters on Windows and Mac OS. The minimum required version of the Add-in for Adobe Connect 9.2 update is 11.9.949.0 for both Windows and Mac OS. However, Adobe strongly recommends moving to the latest versions available.
You are asked to install the new add-in under the following circumstances:
- You try to start or join 9.2 meeting for first time and have older version of the Add-in installed.
- You start screen sharing, application sharing, or share PowerPoint (PPTX format) files, and don’t have the latest version of the Add-in installed.
The new Add-in is based on Flash Player 11.9. It provides better performance and security, besides fixing several known issues since the last forced version:
