Apple dropped playback support for .swf formats in QuickTime almost ten years ago.
Adobe Flash Player is the only way to view them.

    I can not open the file .7z to instal Photoshop CS6

    you should not manually extract that archive.
    download the matching exe (the extractor) and place it in the same directory as your 7z (archive). click, or double click, the exe.

  • Can't open *.swf files in pc.

    It dint cross my mind, when i installed win 7 ultimate x86 2 weeks ago and installed adobe cs4 master suite, to check whether i can open swf files or not. I just like always, downloaded ADM, and installed Flash player 10.1. The web videos were all working fine, except on facebook, where the videos and uploader keeps prompting me to get latest flash player EVEN AFTER I INSTALLED 10.1 version thrice. But i dint care abt it since i dont watch videos on facebook anyways.
    The issue is about swf files. Everything regarding to flash, even flash animations, work perfectly well on the internet, whether it be firefox or any other, but today i was designing a photo gallery for my portfolio, and pressed test movie to see if it was looking good. Everything worked in the test movie.
    But when i open, some tutorial included swf's or my own created swf's, the famous error comes which states"WINDOWS CANT OPEN THIS FILE. TO OPEN THIS KIND OF FILE WINDOWS NEED TO KNOW WHAT PROGRAM TO USE TO OPEN IT". When i click "select program from installed programs", i cant find Flash Player anywhere on my pc. Now wtf am i supposed to do if my swf's cant open (not on the internet) but on my pc. Please tell me. don't suggest uninstalling cs4 or flash player and reinstalling, because i already did that countless times. Should i get olders flash player versions?
    Please don't tell me i will have to reinstall windows for i then i will have to reinstall so much.

    guys! Big news, somehow, i just uninstalled flash cs4 and all the flash components along with plugin and activex. Then restarted pc. Then reinstalled flash cs4, then downloaded flash player and installed it. and VOILA! It works now. i can easily open all the swf files now. No more need for the solution. although you can look for solution if in future someone else acquires the problem

  • Can't open swf files with flash cc installed.

    There is no file association on windows 8 to open up swf files.
    I don't like opening them up in my browser, is there a standalone app i can install?

    You can download the standalone flash player for viewing it from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html.

  • Help! I can't open swf files.

    I've spent a couple of weeks trying to open an swf file, but it won't play no matter what i've tried! When I drag the file to the browser window, a small box with shapes in it appears in the corner. Can somebody please tell me how to open this file?

    What do you mean in terms of opening an swf file?  If you want to play it, as long as you have a Flash player that is suitable for it you should only have to doubleclick the file name to get it to play.

  • Why can't open .swf file in my SE browser?

    I have a K610i with me. I just exported a simple browser
    flash lite 1.1 file from my flash 8, uploaded to server. Then I
    enter the URL in the K610i browser :
    http://www.xxxxxxx.xxxxxx/test.swf
    , but it respone to me "file type not supported".
    (I am sure i can open see the swf file by enter URL in
    browser in a Sharp handset.)
    Is it true that SE K610i really support browser flash lite?
    THANKS!

  • Can't open .swf files

    Hi,
    I create virtual tours and have used quicktime up until now. I've recently converted to flash but when I create a .swf file and save it to my desktop it wont open. I have 2 windows open up (both blank white windows) and one seems to be the actual flash file window but the other seems to be something to do with Hewlit- packard?
    Anyway, I cant open the actual files but if I then place that file into a HTML page it works fine.
    Another thing I don't understand is that it saves the file with a blue (macromedia??) flash logo instead of a red Adobe flash logo.....is that right?
    Can anyone help me? I'm using a mac with snow leopard installed. I rang apple who ensured all my software is up to date but he said it's up to Adobe from now on.
    Can anyone help me out here?
    Kind Regards,
    Grant

    Ok....So I needed a standalone Flash player rather than the browser plug in!
    Problem sorted.

  • Please please help - i can't open swf files

    I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Shockwave Player to play some swf files I have downloaded.  These files still say that Windows can't open them though and I don't know why.  I've tried uninstalling reinstalling etc but the computer doesn't seem to know the Flash Player is there.
    Thanks anyone who will help me fix this!!!

    Thanks Lee, I downloaded a stand alone player and now it works.  I really appreciate your help!!
    Thanks again,
    Elly

  • Can't open a file for writing in the ProgramData folder

    Hi,
    I have a simpe text file in the ProgramData directory that I need both to read and write to.
    SHGetFolderPath(0, CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA, 0, SHGFP_TYPE_CURRENT, userpath);
    PathAppend (userpath, TEXT("Testfolder/gnsh.dat")); licensefile = _wfopen(userpath, L"r+"); 
    However, the only way I have been able to open the file both in read and write modus, is to run the program as an administrator. But this is not a practical solution. The question is then if there is a way  to open this file in both moduses when running
    the program in the normal way, not as an administrator.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thank you for youre answer, that was very useful. It helped me find the solution. The file I wanted to edit was downloaded with Inno Script Studio, which by installation changed the attributes of the file to none writable. So simple by setting a parameter
    in this scripture I was given write access.
    Best regards

  • Can't open .mov files for iMovie editing; can't even view in QuickTime, etc

    Our band recently had a videographer record our performance using two panasonic hd cameras: AG-HVX200 and HPX170. Both were set to hd 720 X (?) at 30 fps.
    All files were saved as .mov files.
    We can't see them at all. We were told that they were designed to be opened in Final Cut Pro (which we told him not to do).
    We do have Final Cut Express, but neither FCE nor iM allows us to select the files ("grey'ed" out).
    Can someone please help us understand how to open these files? Do we need a specific codec?
    Thanks much.

    I am no expert on DVC Pro HD, but here is what I found out.
    HD compression format by Panasonic. 
    Similar compression type to DV 25 but uses a higher bit rate up to 100 Mbit/sec,  depending on 
    the specific HD format being recorded. Highly popular format because of its lowe r bit rates, and 
    incredible resolution considering how highly compressed the format is. 
    This format is very popular as an acquisition format used with Panasonic's Varic am camera as well>as several Panasonic cameras that record to P2 card systems. A lso used heavily to convert higher->end HD formats into a high quality offline e diting format. Uses component recording, DCT 
    compression at approx. 7:1 (intraframe), 4:2:2 color sampling, 8->bit depth and  up to 8 audio channels. 
    1080 formats record at 1280x1080, 720 formats record at 960x720. At 1080p, frame  rates include>23.98, 24, 25 fps. At 1080i, frame rates include 25, 29.97, 30 fp s. At 720p, frame rates include 
    23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 59.94, 60 fps.

    I agree that you want AIC not DV. AIC is a 4:2:0 codec so you will lose some quality, but it is your best option without buying FCP.

  • Can't open .bin file (trying to install windows media player)

    I'm trying to install windows media player on my brand new macbook pro. I downloaded the .bin file and have installed Stuffit Expander. When i try to open the .bin file, stuffit opens to the progress window and tells me that its preparing but nothing happens. it just freezes on me. i've openeother .bin files with no problem. How can I open this .bin file?
    macbook pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I hope you are aware that the Windows Media Player plug-in will not work with Safari because it's not a universal binary. Furthermore, WMP is no longer supported by Microsoft for the Mac. Instead you should download and install Flip4Mac (www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com.)
    Although the WMP plug-in for Safari will not work on an Intel Mac, the player will work fine through the Rosetta emulator. If you are insistent upon using WMP with Safari, then after you install WMP and the plug-in, select Safari's application icon, press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Check the option "Open using Rosetta." This will force Safari to run as a PPC app.
    If Stuffit Expander will not open the .bin archive then check to be sure you are using the current version of it. If you continue having problems then try using TheUnarchiver instead (www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com.) It's also possible you have a defective download.

  • Can I open Raw files from Olympus OM-D EM-1 camera in CS6? I tried running up dates but got error message 44M11200.

    Thought this Olympus camera was covered by CS6 but can't seem to install updates to solve probs.  Error message appears  44M11200

    The T1i was first supported by Camera Raw 5.4 which is only compatible with CS4 and later

  • Can not open RAW-Files from Nikon D4 in Photoshop cc

    hi. i can not open RAW-Files from Nikon D4 in Photoshop cc. (Camera RAW 6.7) can you help please?

    ACR 6.7 would be for an older product, PS-CS5 or PSE10 or PRE10.
    What does Help / About Plug-ins… / Camera Raw… show in PS-CC for a version for ACR and is there more than one version of ACR in the Help / About Plug-in list.  Help / About Plug-in is what I’d do on Windows; I’m not sure if the menu path is the same on a Mac or not.

  • Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

    Can I open raw files using photoshop elements

    Yes, depending on the Camera Model and version of PSE.
    All camera makers like to make slight changes to the RAW format for their new models. Adobe then take a few months to produce a camera RAW plug-in to process the new format.
    Give you PSE version and camera model and we could be more help.
