Editing Flash in Dreamweaver

I am working on some tutorials with the Hands On Training books, and for both
Flash MX 2004 and Dreamweaver MX 2004 when I get to the integration chapters, I
am putting Flash content into a Dreamweaver HTML page. The instructions then
say to select the Flash content, go to the Property Inspector and click the
EDIT button above PLAY - then you can navigate to the FLASH source file and
make changes. However, on my MacIntosh computer, the EDIT button is grayed
out, disabled. I even CTRL click and the "Edit with Flash" option is also
disabled. I downloaded the updater, and this doesn't solve the problem either.
Does anyone know why it does this? It doesn't do it on my PC.

Maybe a dumb question but you do have the Flash Authoring environment loaded
on your Mac
