    the theory goes...
    there's a supposed bug in flash player for the mac that won't let it play at certain frame rates. The only bypass i've heard of is making it a factor of 10+1. In theory, the PC player will try to play it at say, 31, while the mac one will play it at 30, only 1 frame behind. Other frame rates in between won't play up to speed i guess...
    i only use this theory through second-hand knowledge, but it seems to keep things in check cross-platform.

    on the other note, maybe making it a movie clip that you mouse over instead of a button would work better (that's how the example does it).

    onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    if (this.hitTest(_root._xmouse, _root._ymouse, true)) {
    gotoAndPlay("something");
    }
    }
    something like that
