Update to Flash Player 11 has caused our Flash content to crash the Flash Player plugin. Why?
I work for a health and safety training company and we've create a SCORM compliant course using Flash that has been imported into Absorb LMS (our own instance of it www.astutis-elearning.com). There are nine modules in the course each developed using Flash Professional CS5.5.
These all worked fine using the Flash Player 10.3 plugin but since the Flash Player update to 11 our modules (not all Flash content) crash the plugin at certain places. Some modules load fine and then crash later, some modules get through the preloader scene and then crash as soon as it gets to the main menu. We've done some testing and don't know if it could be a Flash component that is causing the issue. At any rate, they used to work with 10.3 and they don't work with 11. We've tried on a number of machines and browsers. Its the same on all of them.
I am prepared to provide a login for people willing to help to see what is causing the problem.
This is an important issue as we have people who are currently on the course that may not be able to complete the course if they upgrade their version of Flash to the latest version. I hope I have provided enough information. Let me know if you need any more.
Paul and DevChaz,
Like you, I am a Flash Developer at a company that creates eLearning. Therefore, I assume that the way that we use Flash is very similar. I was quite excited as I read through this thread since I have been experiencing very similar browser crashes in my newer courses since FP11 came out. Like you, we have recently upgraded to CS5.5.
All of my crashes are with AS2 courses. I would be curious to know if yours are AS2 or AS3.
Anyway, I took my use case, saved the flas down to CS4 and recompiled all the swfs. This did not fix the problem as it did for you (see DevChaz's earlier post in this thread dated Oct 12, 2011 4:46 PM).
I have my problem logged in the Adobe BugBase here:
https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3018637
fpMonster,
I have recently added my cs4 versus cs5.5 compiled use_case on bugbase. I am hoping that you'll look at this use_case and compare it to PaulGray's use_case to see why my use_case does NOT work correctly when compiled in a lower version of the Flash IDE. In addition, perhaps you could share notes regarding this issue with someone at BugBase. Thanks in advance.

The recent software update on my HTC One has caused errors with Exchange ActiveSync issues. Calendar, mail and tasks sync fine but contacts won't sync. How do you correct this?
I had the same problem. Here is what worked for me. Open the mail app and delete your exchange account (Settings > Delete Account). Then re-add your Exchange account. After this my Exchange contacts showed up again.

My internet keeps 'tripping' at or around the same period time each day. We have already replaced our modem from our internet provider and we bought a new airport extreme router. We do not believe these were the cause, although we have now ruled them out as a cause. Everytime the internet fails, our internet provider company tells us that there is still plenty of signal coming into our house. There is something going on inside we believe, and a technician set up our Network Utility to run a continuous ping test to capture information about when it 'trips' againn. Yesterday, it happened again, and when he checked the data out, he said he is sure there is something 'running in the background' on my IMac. He advised me to download a free Network Analyzer so he could further investigate what is was that was causing the problem, so I need a free network analyzer software for my Mac. The issue has been going on for a long time, so it is not the new operating system, Lion. This morning, we changed the radio channel from 'auto' to 'manual' and set a new channel, hoping that might help. We are trying to find out what program may be running (even a tiny one in the background) which is causing our internet to fail, although the internet is still coming into our modem. What is free downloadable product is recommended?
Will Activity Monitor and/or Network Utility, both already in the Utilities folder on your Mac, help in trying to diagnose the problem.

because you do not have a 3rd generation device. The OS Version says so , otherwise you would be at 4.3.5 minimum and also Itunes is also always correct in determining if you have the latest OS ( if not it fetches the newest from Apple's Servers ) . And because a 2nd generation iPod stops at 4.2.1 you can't get the newest OS, because your device is old. Buy a new iPod , they have iOS5 preinstalled. -
Transferring photos from camera or memory card causes iPhoto to hang up with the spinning beach ball - why? This happens only on a 5 year old iMac running 10.6.8. It is a recent developmemt. All other machines have no problen with the same card.
I click on the send feedback everytime it pops up with the force quit, so they'er getting it.
That sends a crash report. Its doubtful that these are ever seen by a human being, but more likely datamined. Sending feedback reaches an actual person.
My guess from yourdescription is that the portion of the OS (note, OS, not iPhoto) that manages the importing process is what's crashing.

This is terrible. Such a delay.
I am not interested in "refreshing" Firefox because I would have to make a list - LONG - of all the changes I made over the years to it, in order to put it back the way it was.
So, why release a version that has caused such a negative performance?Since Norton is causing that problem in Firefox, have you tried Norton support for answers?
https://community.norton.com/en/forums/firefox-extreemly-slow-start
Bottom line is that Mozilla builds Firefox , and provides multiple pre-release development versions over 18 weeks that can be used by developers to test their add-ons before release. Then other companies add on to Firefox at the time of release, ''or before if that company does beta testing with their advanced users. ''
Norton is the one that created this issue for their users, and they need to fix it; although it could be caused by Trusteer Rapport being used with Norton, as mentioned in that Norton support thread. If that turns out to be the case Norton has to work with Trusteer to get it fixed. -
Hi i haven't updated my iDVD seen 2005 and to get the new one i need 7.0.4 first and i downloaded it from the apple website and when i go into the updating process its says "An eligible iDVD application was not found in the location /Applications." why
Because you need to buy iLife 08 or newer on DVD first. If you're using iDVD 05, you probably have a PowerPC Mac and can't use iLife 11.

The latest OS update now causes my external keyboard to crash the system?
I use my late 2008 MacBook Pro 15" as a desktop. I have it on a stand and use a Magic Trackpad and was using an iHome external keyboard with a built in iPod dock. I downloaded the latest software update for 10.6.8 this morning and when i restarted my computer a bunch of code displayed on the screen and a window saying "You have to restart your computer" in 4 different languages appeared. I restarted the computer 3 times and the same thing occured. It wasn't until a disconnected all the peripherals and restarted that the OS would reload and then realized that it was the iHome keyboard that was causing the OS to crash.
Any suggestions?This has been reported before. The driver for that device is incompatible with 10.6.8. Contact the vendor for an update.

I do not have enough memory to update phone. My camera roll is taking up over 8gb of memory so if I delete the photos will they also be deleted on my iPad
You should download all of your photos to your MAC/PC. The copies on your ipad are probably the ones in photo stream and they are not the full resolution originals. They will also gradually be replaced as photo stream only keeps last 1000 photos taken.
Download the photos, then erase them from your phone. And while you're at it, make a full backup of your phone in iTunes before doing your update. And then do the update through iTunes. -
Can anyone help me get my phone working and retain my data? I Ran the latest I Tunes update (6.0)and my phone (3GS) froze on the USB Itunes screen and my computer I Tunes says I must restore to factory settings losing all data?

I clicked yes and it download the ios6 update on iTunes on my computer and then did the update on my phone through that. I got the same message and I thought that I would lose everything too, but I did not.

I tried holding the power off/home button simultaneously however, this resulted in nothing. I need my phone!!
Try holding just the home button for a while.
Try a program called TinyUmbrella, it's good with getting your phone out of funny states like that. -
Permissions Issue causes Dreamweaver CS6 Menus to Crash the Application. Please Help!
I recently upgraded Adobe Web Premium CS5 to CS6. All of the include applications seem to run as expected, except for Dreamweaver which crashes when many of the pallet menu options are clicked.
The application when tested on a new user account will operate without crashing, and after contacting Adobe support, they referred me to the Apple/Mac Community for help, since they want to identify the issue as a permissions problem associated with my user account on my MacBook Pro.
With the many levels of permissions in many different locations, I'm at a loss as to what changes might be necessary to fix the problem. I did upgrade Java to the latest release in the hope that it would help, but it did not.
Any isight into this issue would be appreciated. After reading throught the Adobe Forum related to this application, I found other rmenu issues that were similar but manifested in slightly different ways, like certain options were not visible and users assumed that they were removed in the latest release.Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. You can demote it back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’renot going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
