Most of SWF files are created in Adobe's Flash® Professional or Flex Builder™. First of all FLA or Flex project files are generated, all necessary coding is done and when the work is finished it is published to the resulting SWF format. SWF file cannot be edited on the same core level as FLA or Flex projects, so if you want to make changes to your SWF file, you'll need to make them in FLA file or in Flex project files, then publish your work back to SWF.

Question:

What should I do if I misplaced my source FLA file and desperately need to alter my SWF file asap? How do I convert SWF to FLA on Mac?

Common solutions:

Order development of the same project from a professional Flash developer.

Disadvantages: Although the work will be done flawlessly, it can cost a fortune to make the FLA project anew.

Develop the FLA or Flex projects by yourself.

Disadvantages:You must be experienced in Flash programming and have a lot of time to spend on this project, which is not always possible.

All the above solutions can be good in some way, but they don't provide you with two main options: speed and low cost.
