Flash file not publishing

Flash newbie here. I've created a flash file, and the intrux
suggest to save, check the Publish Settings that they are correct,
and then click okay. (Okay, I've done this numerous times
) I then click on "Publish", but instead of getting
the next dialog box, the dialog box flashes briefly (pun
unintended) on the screen, and then disappears. The file(s) show up
in the Dreamweaver files palette however. I've tried uploading the
file.swf and the file.html, but the browser only displays a broken
gif. The animation tests okay in the <Control><Test
Movie> exercise, so what am I doing wrong to have the publish
dialog box display for a split second and then disappear?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Please ask in the Flash forum, this forum is for discussions
about the SWF
format and open solutions, not about flash (the authoring
tool). You'll get
better responses when you ask in the appropriate places.

Flash files not displaying in Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Most recent Shockwave installed, private browsing active in Firefox? Works perfectly in Chrome and Internet Explorer. HELP!!!!

I suppose it would have helped if you knew what it was supposed to look like! I'm using Shockwave Flash 11.7.700.169 and the version of Firefox I'm on is 20.0
When you see it in Firefox - do the thumbnail populate the grid? See attached populated and un-populated.
Populated grid is with Chrome.
Thanks!
Thanks in advance!

Flash file not responding if more than 1 flash file.

product : Adobe Flex Builder ver 2.. HELP required urgently..
I'm very new to Flex. in my adobe FLEX page, i'm displaying 2
flash file (.swf). the flash file itself pop-up data based on click
on the adobe flash file. however only 1 flash file (first flash
file) responsds and 2nd flash file loaded but NOT responding to
click and no data pop-up in the 2nd flash file.
However, if i change the order of FlashLoader2.load("file"),
the 2nd flash file responding and the 1st flash file not
responding. so, we can conclude that flash file is ok. anything
need to change in adoble flex???? pls help.
thanks

ar tech,
I think that your problem is to do with layering. You have
specified both loaders to have width and height 100% so (unless
there is more to your code than you have posted) they will sit on
top of each other. In that case unless you have done some clever
code to pass on the mouse request, it will get swallowed by
whichever one is on top (hence the change of behaviour when you
alter the order of loading).
It sounds from your description as though they actually sit
in different screen areas, so maybe try changing the location
parameters and see if both respond when you put them side by side.

Flash CS5 not Publishing Files

I made a simple flash animation and can preview it. I save it as a .fla file and publish it as the defult settings and can no longer preivew it nor does the .swf or .html files show up in the folder i saved the .fla file to. Also, when i search for the .swf file in my start menu it finds it, identfies that it is in the folder it should be in, but will not open.
I'm running Window 7.

Please............I need this resolved???
I have now completely reinstalled the CS5 Mastersuite and Flash CS5 is still showing the above error.

Flash files not playing in Captivate correctly.

I have Flash files that make up a course that play correctly in Flash but are breaking in Captivate once I import into the Publish folder. There is a button that remains active without being clicked and will not close as it is supposed to, creating obvious issues in the course. The button does not have these issues in Flash, only in Captivate.
Has anyone had an issue like this or any thoughts on how to fix it?

Is the SWF published for AS2 or AS3? Captivate only accepts AS3 nowadays.
The other likely issue is that perhaps you have inadvertently used a symbol name for your button, or some of your AS code functions/variables etc, that happen to be reserved by Captivate for its own use. These types of conflicts can cause issues.

Flash will not publish + FLV question

Hello,
I am currently building a game in Flash CS4, but am stuck due to a Flash problem. I have searched the forums for a sollution, but have yet to find one.
The Problem:
Adobe Flash will not export, or publish my .FLA file, nor will it create a .SWF at the chosen destination under the publish settings. Whenever I try to export/publish my .FLA, the export/publish pop-up window opens, and the progress bar runs all the way through. Once that is done, the window which normally appears immediately afterwards, in order to test the flash, does not appear.
Furthermore, Flash seems to have deleted the .SWF, and any other files I wish to publish the moment the publish/export process is completed.
The strange thing about this problem is that I may be lucky and have Flash actually export and publish correctly on its first go. However, when I try again, it won’t publish/export until I restart flash.
This problem happened on three separate windows machines (Vista and 7) under both Flash CS4 and CS5.
Note:
I have discovered that this problem may be related to the many embedded FLV video clips I have created for the game’s character animations (6+ characters with 30 very short animations each).
These animations were rendered in a 3D CG software, which were then edited in Adobe After Effects, and exported as .FLVs for use in Flash.
Oddly enough, once I’ve deleted all the embedded FLV clips from the library, Flash will once again publish and export. This is not an acceptable solution to my problem, however. I already searched for any corrupted FLV files, but could not find any.
My questions are:
1. What can I do to make Flash publish/export once again, while having my embedded .FLV clips within the library? Is there something I am over-looking, or any settings I must change in Flash?
2. Which settings (in Adobe After Effects) are best to export .FLVs for use in flash?
3. If I cannot use FLVs, what other options do I have, in order to use my CG animations in Flash? I tried PNG sequences, but Flash complains about low memory, and crashes (FLVs were working great up until now).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I've also experienced problems with the Publish process dropping out and failing to complete - no error messages in the Output pane or Compiler errors, just a total hang of the Publish status bar (and no published files...).
I can't say I've pinpointed the exact cause of this, but it may be related to having all objects on the Stage locked (possibly when they are not placed in the main canvas area).
Adding a new layer and creating a new object seems to help. If the publish process (including TestScene) has stalled, restart Flash and reload the movie...
Hope that helps! It's kinda scary watching that Publish bar disappear into nothingness when you've got literally hours/minutes/seconds left to get the thing built and running :-)

Flash will not publish

I have a rather large file that until recently was publishing fine, but now will not. I have tried saving to different locations and it will still not publish. I am using CS4 in Windows XP Pro. I'm a relative novice, so I don't know how to break the file down in to separate parts and have them load from a main menu, otherwise I'd do that. This is driving me crazy adn I'm fast approching my deadline.

Maybe there is some conflict between software on your
computer.
I've been using Flash for afew years now, and the only times
it did something close to what you've described, it was because it
crashed, memory problems, or conflicts with scratch disks.
This is why you should superGlue your fingers to the Ctrl+S
everytime you use any design software.
Since im here...i'd like to suggest to you NOT to use scenes.
Whatever you use scenes for, im sure you can do the exact same
thing with multiple movieClip. Scenes most likely will cause you
troubles. Scenes are EVIL in Flash.
P.S. Im not saying that your problem was caused by
scenes...but im telling you to avoid using scenes, to avoid future
problems you might run into.

Flash file not visible in web page

Hello,
I'm Udayakumar from chennai (India). I created some flash
files and uploaded in web site. That are working properly in India

Actionscript version - actionscript 2.0, options - compress movie,
local play back security - local files only.
And I'm inserting the swf files in html pages using plugin
commands. (ie)
<embed width="100" height="100" src="images/x.swf"
menu="false">
So I can't able to understand, why was the flash files are
not visible in other countries?
Pls explain me......

You will need the following in your HTML (with modifications

All of the above will be generated with all values in place
using the "Publish Settings" function in Flash if you check HTML as
one of the export settings.

Hi Ramandeep,
I tried that option early but did not work. Not able to understand why.
Below is the code snippet.
<tr:panelGroupLayout layout="vertical">

Flash file not appearing

Help! Please be kind enough to look at my code for this page
and see if you can figure out why me Flash file is not showing up.
The page plays perfectly when previewed in Firefox and Safari
directly from Dreamweaver. And yes, my Library folder with the
Home.swf file is on the server.

Thanks.
Bill

This line:
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
is inserted by DW8.0.2 when you insert a Flash movie.
It'll preview OK locally but you need to upload the Scripts
folder (which
DW8.0.2 created and Adobe neglected to tell you about) so
that the Flash
movie will view OK online.

GIF files not published

Hi, I have just imported a project from RoboHelp 5 into ROBOHelp 8. The project upgraded fine. When I publish to Robo8server my *.gif images are not published, jpgs work fine. Thank you in advance
Rich

Things to check:
1. Are the images in the output files if opened locally?
2. Are the images on the server?
3. What is the path to the images?
Post back and we'll go from there.
Read the RoboColum(n) for mutterings on RoboHelp, Technical Communication Suite and technical communication.

Flash File not working with DW

"Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player"
I know others have had this same issue, but after researching and trying everything, I am just not able to fix it. Anyone out there have any ideas? I have a website created in flash. I used DW to import the flash file and upload to the server. Very simple html page with nothing else but the flash file.
Here is the website. www.meghanmcmehon.com. Just need some help here. Thx.

Source code indicates that the page is still pointing to a local file for the flash content,
<param name="movie" value="file:///Macintosh HD/Projects/Matrix Entertainment/Christopher Zurek/3422ZRK Media Files/Site/root.swf" />
so by default it displays the "get flash" prompt.
You need to change the all of the reference(s) to point to a file in the root folder, and re-put the page. This includes your javascript ref in the header:
<script src="Macintosh HD:Projects:McMahon, Meghan:3481MCM Profile:3481MCM Media Files:Site:Scripts:swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Also, you should only work in lower case wherever possible (naming files), to avoid mistakes in file references.

Flash files not recognized

My bank sets flash files in a Macromedia folder under ~\library\preferences. The flash file is used by the bak server to recognize the Mac (and avoid security questions) if the cookies are purged. I cna see the flash file right where it is supoosed to be. The time stmap indicates it was set at the most recent visit. Somehow the bank server doesn't see that flash file, so I have to answer teh security questions upon the next logiin. The bank IT department tells me the flash file is set by the browser (Safari). They can't reproduce the problem on their one Mac, and are blaming some unknown setting or feature of my browser.
Could it be a Safari setting?

Did you do this?
"A solution found!!!!!!!!!
**I downloaded a Sony plugin from Sony's website that allows you to log and transfer the material shot on a Compact Flash card (with a camera like the Sony Z7U) and bring that into FCP. They have the plugin for both FCP 6 and FCP 7. After installing the plugin, I was successfully able to bring in my footage. Interstingly though, I tried to bring in another folder of video I transferred to my hard drive that was shot on the CF cards and FCP gave me the message saying the media was unsupported and/or something was wrong with the file directory. I took a look at the folders where I have my video stored and noticed that the folder entitled "VIDEO" had a sub folder entitled "HVR" then within that folder were the files. One of my folders did not have the "VIDEO" folder. So I created one and dragged and dropped the other files into that"VIDEO" folder and like a charm it worked!
**So very important: For those of you using a CF based file system, make sure you download this following plugin from Sony's website: http://www.pro.sony.eu
*Also make sure that you have the outer folder named "VIDEO" all in capital letters. I guess it's the same concept as a DVD player not playing a video that doesn't have both the "Audio TS" and "Video TS files" even though the AUdio TS folder is blank.
Hope this helps out some of you folks who may have experienced the same quirk I did when trying to transfer the CF card video into the log and transfer of FCP.
Thanks,
Scott Wolfson"
