Some flash files don't appear on macintosh

I've installed the latest flash player on a macintosh 10.4.11. But I've noticed that a few flash sites don't appear. Among them the flash player page itself:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
As you can see, where the flash movie should play there's just white space. Both on Safari and Firefox for Mac.
I've also tried in on another mac so it's not just my computer.
I've checked the version on: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about and that flash movie runs fine. It also says: 'You have version 10,0,32,18 installed'
At home on a pc these pages (like http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer) work fine. What kind of thing could make the swf disappear on a mac?

That one works fine on both macs to. It's not just my mac giving trouble. Tested in on another mac too to make sure it's not my computer. The other one has only the basic operating system (os 10.4.11) and the latest flash player and other default stuff. So no fancy additions like on mine. But the same result there:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/  - white space
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about    - no problem
Another site which gives white space is www.morethanline.nl. I can see the preloader, but after that the screen turns white exept for the red ribbon on the top left which says 'vacatures' . Clicking on that doesn't do anything, which I expect is because it changes the main movie in the center. Which is white so even though it would change to the 'vacatures' page, I wouldn't see it.
Is it perhaps the way the swf loads external swf's? Some way that isn't compatible on a mac and works fine on a pc? I don't know how the products/flashplayer swf loads the external movie. Do you happen to know how it is loaded? I can see the play/pauze buttons as you can see from my screendump. Just not the loaded video. Perhaps there's some specific way it is loaded which doesn't work on a mac and gives white space instead?

  • Some Flash files does not work in the Portal

    Hi,
    Anybody know why I have problems viewing some flash files in Content Management in the portal?
    The file extention is .swf
    I have a number of files. All of them works locally. When uploading them, there are a few of them that does not work.
    They can simply not be showed. Not in JSP and not by clicking on them. Very strange.

    Hi Flemming,
    this could be a compression problem. Try to disable output compresssion for .swf files and the corresponding mime type 'application/x-shockwave-flash'. Click <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/ad/08d52d6d95864492a6a5931bb62716/frameset.htm">here</a> for more information how to disable compression.
    Regards, Roland
    PS: disabling compression for .swf is no performance problem, because they are already compressed.

  • GarageBand files don't appear in iTunes.

    My exported garageband files don't appear in iTunes. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

  • Embedding a flash file (don't know version & also need to avoid PC warning dialogues): what's the latest correct way?

    Problem: I've had a flash Christmas card created for a client
    by a designer. Before I can forward it to the client I want to
    embed it in a html page for them. The designer doesn't know how to
    do this (I wish I'd known before I commissioned them) and also told
    me they don't know what version of Flash created the file. They
    think it was 4 or 5. Eh? Whatever. I went to Adobe's site expecting
    that somewhere there would be a page providing the cut and paste
    code for this, but if there is such a page, it's impossible to find
    by an average person! So I tried cutting and pasting some code I
    found on a blog which discussed that Microsoft and created an
    update that caused all sorts of dialogue windows to appear before a
    flash file could be played e.g. "Click to activative this file",
    but that this new code would overcome them. Whatever. Pasted the
    code. Worked fine in a Mac browser, and on some PC browsers it
    didn't play, or the dialogue windows appeared and had to be clicked
    through before the file could be played. Am now officially tearing
    my eyebrows out. Could someone very kindly please paste or direct
    me to the embedding code that: plays a flash file of any version
    AND which overcomes any stupid PC dialogue windows. And Adobe: not
    everyone is a ******** navigational genius. Please put a link to
    this information on the first page of your Support page. Asking it
    as a question in the search box doesn't provide the simple
    answer!

    How to use Migration Assistant to transfer files from another Mac
    If you only need to transfer files then connect the two via Firewire cable and use Target Disk Mode to access the old computer's hard drive from which you can select and copy the data you need.
    Office 2008 will work, but it would be better to upgrade it to Office 2011. If you want a seamless changeover with respect to the iDevices, then you need to transfer the entire /Home/Library/Music/iTunes/, /Home/Library/Music/iTunes Playlists/, /Home/Library/Music/imm Media/ folders to the /Music/ folder of the new computer. Also copy over the /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist file to the /Home/Library Preferences/ folder on the new computer.
    Be sure you de-authorize the old computer: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization. Be sure to do this before any of the above is done.
    Firewire, we don't have any of those cables and devices unless the new MacBook comes with it? It's all USB(2). Can we use USB (yes, it is slower)?  He use it for digital cameras, Time Machine backups in Mac OS X 10.5.8, etc.
    OK, I will tell my client to get a new Office 2011 then to avoid the mess. Hmm, can't we just synchronize our iDevices with iTunes to copy back to the new MacBook's new HDD?

  • .m4V files don't appear in iTunes until played from iTunes' 'Movies' folder

    Some .m4v camcorder movie files (from a recent .avi conversion using Handbrake) just don't appear in my iTunes 'Movies' library until I double-click on them in the iTunes 'Movies' folder. Handbrake did the batch conversion and placed the converted files in the iTunes 'Movies' folder.
    All of the converted files are visible in that 'Movies' folder of iTunes. And when I double-click them they play in an iTunes window. iTunes 'Movies' section seems unable to display them until they have first been played from the iTunes 'Movies' folder. Am I missing something about the way iTunes handles .m4v files?
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem? Any idea what the issue might be?
    Thanks.

    Problem.
    I just tried turingtest2's suggestion and it didn't work.
    I converted an H264 .mov file in Handbrake and output the conversion to the 'Automatically Add to iTunes' folder. But it was not added to iTunes - it ended up in the 'Not Added' folder and remained there until I played it from that location. Then it immediately turned up in iTunes 'Movies' folder.
    The Handbrake conversion was to an 'Apple TV' compatible .m4v file.
    Any idea what the problem might be?

  • Deleted files don't appear in trash

    When I drag files to trash they are deleted from the folder, but don't appear in trash.  Is there some setting that has changed so the trash is emptied immediately?

    Hi and welcome to  discussions.
    You are probably aware that the external drive needs to be connected and showing in order to empty whatever has been deleted from it.
    Deleting something via Finder should add crumpled paper to the trash icon.
    However deleting from within some applications does not put the deleted file in the Desktop's trash can. iPhoto is an example of this, so using this as an example you would need to 'empty the trash' from within iPhoto or relevant application to get rid of it.

  • Files don't appear visually on the desktop

    I recently installed Leopard and I've been working with Logic 7.2.
    Before upgrading to Leopard When I created new audio files with Logic they usually appeared immediately on the desktop if I assigned them there. With Leopard they do not. They can be seen in the Finder however. They just don't appear on the desktop. I've discovered that if I reboot then the icons show up on the desktop. I hate to have to reboot every time I want to see files that may be on my desktop, especially since I need to have visual confirmation of 20 or 30 files in one session. Is there another way or is this just a Leopard fluke?

    This problem shows up with distressing frequency, and I'm not sure why. The preferences for the Desktop, such things as the view options for arrangement, whether to display a preview icon, and so on, are kept in this file:
    "/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist"
    Other information is kept in .DS_Store file for the Desktop folder itself, thus when a new file is created in the Desktop folder the .DS_Store file is immediately updated with that information. Finder should be seeing this and updating the view of the Desktop that displays on the monitor, but sometimes it can be a sluggard about doing so.
    You could try removing both the finder.plist file, and the Desktop's invisible .DS_Store file (you will need to turn on show invisibles to do so, or use the Terminal) and then relaunch the Finder or log out and back in and see if that fixes the problem. It should not be necessary to restart to see your Desktop files: simply opening the actual Desktop folder in your home folder should show the files, even though the Finder isn't updating the monitor display to reflect the state of the actual folder. Sometimes if you open the folder and select a file there the Finder will then update its display of the Desktop on the monitor. Also, when Finder is being unbearably slow about showing things generally you can force it to update by relaunching it: hold down the Option key and click and hold the click on the Finder icon in the Dock, then select Relaunch from the pop up menu. All folders will close and the Desktop will "blink" and then reappear--hopefully its reappearance will display all the latest files that are present in the Desktop folder.

  • Some Mail Folders don't appear on iPhone/iPad

    I have folders in my email account that appeared ok on iPhone 3G, but a few of them don't appear neither on the iPad or on my new iPhone 4 (more files missing on iPad than on iPhone 4).
    Anyone know the reason?

    Assuming the email account is an IMAP account and it must be for this, all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account should be available with each email client used to access the account.

  • Some Nikon D300 NEF files don't appear in Bridge CS3 (Mac)

    Hi all,
    I'm using a Nikon D300 and just upgraded to CS3 on my MAC in no small part because the D300 was not supported by CS2. I am running into a problem though.
    I always shoot in both JPEG and RAW modes. When I open Bridge I always see each JPEG version of a shot.
    However, only about 50% of the time can I see the NEF (RAW) version of the thumbnail. The rest of the time I only see a generic "RAW" thumbnail with no image. This sporadic NEF viewability carries over to the preview pane when I select such a NEF file.
    Furthermore, Camera Raw cannot open the NEF files that are not visible in Bridge. When I try opening them I get a message saying "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this file type."
    I have tried purging the Cache (through Tools) as some indicated in other forums threads but this has not helped. I have also downloaded the ACR 4.4 plugin and installed it in the correct library location.
    Has anyone else experienced this (whether on a Nikon or other camera)? Any advice?
    Thanks

    I've finally solved the problem with having only some of my NikonD300 NEF files viewable in Bridge/readable by Photoshop! Jon Michael Riley had said he was having similar problems so I wanted to make sure he and anyone else has the info on what worked for me.
    The issue does not have anything to do with purging the thumbnail cache or installing the latest version of Camera RAW 4.4.1. While they were good suggestions (offered by Adobe's Technical support people also), they do not resolve this particular issue.
    I read that an earlier version of what Jon described as "Nikon's clunky software" had corruption issues when images were first transfered from the camera via Nikon PictureProject Transfer. It looks like the latest incarnation has the same issues. Nikon products can see the transfered images without a problem. HOWEVER, Adobe Bridge/Photoshop cannot rectify the corruption issue caused by transferring photos using Nikon's utility.
    So here's the solution: DO NOT use Nikon PictureProject Transfer! It is a piece of garbage! Instead, make ADOBE PHOTO DOWNLOADER the default tool to transfer images from the camera. To make it default do the following:
    Open Bridge, pull down the Bridge CS3 Preferences. Select the "General" preferences set. On this screen you will see "Behavior". The first clickable box reads "When a camera is connected launch Adobe Photo Downloader". Select this box to render this the default transfer tool.
    If you still have the pictures on your memory cards you can re-transfer them using Adobe Photo Downloader. All your NEF files should now be readable by Bridge/Photoshop. I've told Adobe Tech Support about this problem with Nikon's software. Hopefully they'll be able to check this as an option if others call in with similar problems.
    Unfortunately I have not figured out how to repair the corruption in the files I transfered earlier using Nikon's piece of garbage software. Since I don't have the images on memory cards anymore I can't just re-transfer them. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to do this? Will I ever be able to access my earlier NEF shots?
    Cheers,
    Greg
    Thanks to everyone for trying to help resolve these issues.

  • Flash buttons don't appear in browser

    I insert a Flash button. It is visible when I preview the

    > But it does not appear visibly when viewed in a

    You mean when you browse to the file LOCALLY and open it with
    the browser?
    This is what you SHOULD get if you are using root relative
    links, since the
    browser has no idea where the root of your site is. In this
    case, you would
    only see that SWF when you browse to it in DW *AND* you have
    enabled preview
    with temp files.

  • Files don't appear on my desktop

    So, happens this strange thing:
    when i download a file,
    i choose as destination the desktop.
    The download finishes, but no file is shown!
    I have to go in spotlight, search the name of the file,
    choose show it in the finder, and then it appears!
    I use firefox, but it's not related to it:
    for exemple, if i uncompress a file, same thing,
    the file is not shown on the desktop.
    I've already repaired permissions,
    it should be an osx problem,
    but don't want to reinstall it only for this.
    Any other things i could try?
    Thanks

    In Firefox, you really must make sure to select a destination. I assume you are using 1.5.0.7 (latest) or even 2.0 RC2 (just posted).
    It is possible for downloads to go elsewhere (control + click and select destination) in FF (but Safari will ONLY download to the "download designated folder".
    When expanding, some ".dmg" images will go into the trash afterwards unless you change the behavior in Disk Utility of what to do (preferences).
    Click on desktop and it doesn't show up even though it is done? Sometimes things are in memory, and the Finder has a general amnesia problem with updating itself with changes. A long standing point of ire.
    I would create a folder "Downloads" which seems to help keep things organized and in one place (and do hang onto all the updates and installers).

  • Downloaded files don't appear on desktop

    I just started experiencing an odd problem and when I went searching, I found the topic in the archives, unanswered - so I thought I would try again.
    For the last few days, everything I download to the desktop - doesn't appear on my desktop. When I search in my downloads folder, I find all of the files, but they don't physically show up unless I relaunch the finder - which is frustrating and annoying.
    Does anyone know what causes this? The posts relating to this problem go back quite a way, so it can't be an update issue and I haven't changed any settings or loaded any new software recently.
    Any thoughts?

    Thanks for clarifying. Are you saying that there's a folder named downloads on your Desktop that you're not seeing getting filled with the downloads or is the Desktop your downloads folder? In any case, you're describing a Finder hangup that's been around for quite awhile, but yours is extremely rare in that only relaunching the Finder gets it to update properly. Create a new admin user account, log into it, set up your browser to download to the Desktop, download some things, and see if the problem persists. Report back.
