2G shuffle flashing and not appearing

Hi, my new 2G shuffle, connected to an e-mac running 10.3.9 does not appear in i-tunes or on the desktop. It's connected (I pushed it down on the dock after reading some answers here!) and is flashing orange to tell me to eject it before disconnecting. But I have no icon anywhere that I can eject! I don't want to randomly unplug it.
Help! What to do?
Thank you.

Mine too is a little flaky about being seen, especially in Finder. I have found that by pressing firmly on the little shuffle and kind of gently rolling it on the connector with my finger (I am assuming this creates a better contact at the headphone jack) the little dude shows up.
Another piece of advice I've seen is to try another USB port.
That said, sometimes you have to just pull the little bugger out and reinsert it, even though the computer complains that you unmounted a device improperly. Hey, that's life.
Lastly, it seems like the shuffle on/off switch position has some effect on how the 2G is seen and works in iTunes. I have not investigated this effect in detail yet.

Cannot upgrade adobe flash player (failed to initialize), shockwave flash does not appear as a plug in

various web sites stated that I needed to update adobe flash player. I clicked on link and followed instructions, then received the message "installation encountered errors - failed to initialize". So far, I have uninstalled previous versions of flash player and checked my plug ins. Noticed that Shockwave flash does not appear in my plug in list and adobe states that this needs to be active for their flash player.

On restart Launch Pad, Reminders, App Store and Notes appears back on Dock

I have installed Mountain Lion and loving most of the features.
I am using the five finger pinch shortcut on the trackpad to get to the Dashboard.
Its a great feature so now I have deleted all my apps on the dock.
Instead I have put my many folders on the dock.
However, on restart of my macbook pro the Launch Pad, Reminders, App Store and Notes appears back on dock
Is there a way I can switch this annoying push to have to use Apple apps on the dock?

I noticed it sometimes happened when I am on Lion.
I don't use all the Apple software, and some never even opened them to use.
But they end up back on my dock again which is super annoying.

I just updated my Apple TV 2 and now it is flashing and not working at all. Help

I just did the update to version 5.2 on our ATV2 and now I'm having the exact same problem as the OP- all attempts to access any iTunes services i.e. Movies or TV result in dropping back to the ATV Main menu. Per Winston's suggestion, I logged out of iTunes and then tried to log back in. I am getting a message "the server is not responding- please try again later".
FWIW- all my non-iTunes services on the ATV are working fine- i.e. Netflix and YouTube.
Sounds like the update has overwhelmed the Apple servers.

Flash carousel not appearing correctly

Hi,
I am building a website, and have a little flash problem.
The site is here: IBM Szerver, Storage, DELL szerver, alkatrészek
I am relatively new to Flash, and try to insert a flash slideshow component I purchased few days ago, but it does not even appear on the site. I have some html and javascript errors.
Best,
siteadmin@szervershop

Nevermind, I solved it other way, thank you.

Flash piece not appearing on macs, help!

my client says the flash animation on the following page is
not appearing on her mac, can anyone check it? maybe tell me the
problem? please!!!
http://www.l3hm.com/anim_test3.php

You're welcome. It's how I learned, too.
Think of it this way. The final page assembled by the server
and uploaded
to the browser can only contain a single set of properly
terminated <html>,
<head>, and <body> tags. This means that NONE of
those tags can be present
both in the parent page and in the include files.
Furthermore, if you want
to work with DW, you cannot have any of those tags in the
include files,
although it is theoretically possible to have a <head>
or <body> in them.
DW will barf if it sees that, however.

and the other being the issue where IOS can return the prompt before it's done unpacking the files
Ok, now what EXACTLY is the appliance and IOS version? The only time I know of this bug is the Metro Ethernet (ME) switches and when the current appliance is upgraded FROM an IOS version 15.2(1)S.
But there is a "workaround" which Cisco doesn't want to publish (don't ask me why not): Use "archive tar /x" and, optionally, delete the old IOS sub-directory.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend anyone using the "copy the BIN file" method unless you know what you are doing or you've put extra measures in place. The "archive /x tar" and/or "archive download-sw" was developed so that it could be automated and the operator can see the result at the end. The "copy the BIN file" method doesn't give anyone a result whether or not the file was copied or not or was the file copied completely.
Regularly, I would upgrade our switches (2960/2960S, ME-3800X, 3560E/3560CG, 3750X) fleet using the "archive download-sw" method and I don't use scripts. I just copy-and-paste the command. So far, since 2009, I've "lost" only 6 switches when I upgraded the switch to upgrade the wrong file (another IOS bug on it's own) and I had to physically show up and upgrade using ROMmon. Every time I would upgrade, about 900 switches (some in a stack), it would take me about 4 days. Even though I work with three guys who's very good at almost any scripting but we've come to a unanimous conclusion NOT to use scripting.
Moving on, if "copy the BIN file" is still a preferred choice, I would like to know how do you go about verifying the file was copied completely? Whenever I resort to the "copy the BIN file", I ensure the file copied is complete by verifying the MD5 hash value against the MD5 hash value found in the Cisco website. Trust me, adding this additional "layer" of security saved me doing ROMmon upgrade so many times.

Flash menu not appearing in Captivate 4

Gentlefolk;
I am evaluating the Captivate 4 trial version and ran into a problem.
I cobbled together a quickie menu in Flash which works fine in C4.
However, seeking a more elegent solution, I created another menu using a Flash menu generator (Antssoft) which works fine in a browswer and in a Flash player, but does NOT appear in C4. I see a Flash bounding box on the page, but when viewed in browser mode or by a standard preview, there is just a blank page.
I have tried variations on my theme with the menu: changing the filename to .flv so it could be imported as a Flash object, I have used the original .swf extenstion and imported as an animation, but all with the same results.
Suggestions? Is Captivate a beast in which one needs to build any type of menu within a Captivate project itself,and it really doesn't like external menus?
Seems odd..but possible....
Thx!
Don

What do you mean cobbled together a quickie flash menu?
Was it something you actually built in flash to control the captivate swf, such as an animation you placed on the stage or a widget object you built?
Yes...Captivate is a beast, well at first. There are only so many variables/functions you are allowed to play around with, although with some more digging you may be able to find some more in the class files for captivate.
I am not sure if you are stil in need of help with this or not, let me know.

Flash button not appearing

I've added a flash button to my website and uploaded it to
the home file, but it's not appearing online. Any
suggestions?

I just purchased some software that allows you to make flash
buttons. I made a button, and thought I had it uploaded to my page,
but it doesn't seem to be working either. I uploaded some button
designs from Adobe and I see them when I go to make or edit a
button, but I don't see the one that I thought was upload from the
new software. What software are you using and how did you upload
your buttton?

I have a new Mac Mini and all my software is up to date. My video keeps acting up, flashing and not allowing me to work. This was happening with my old machine as well. Is this a problem with my monitor or do I have a bug somewhere in my system?

I have a new Mini and updated software. My monitor will keep flashing back and forth, shrinking the display and not allowing me to work. Sometimes clicking the mouse helps, sometimes clicking into the screen but it freezes up and won't allow me to work. Is this a monitor problem or is there some bug in my system.

Try just holding down on the power and home buttons to restart it. Thomas R. doesnt know what he was talking about. The tool is not made for jailbraeking and is not related to jailbreaking. If you want to get the link again, let me know, as I reapir iPhones, have been using it for years, nad it does NOT void your warranty. It simply reboots your device.
My apologies for all of the new people on this site who are novices to anything beyond iTunes or the device itself. Hopefuly your problem is solved.

IPod shuffle 2nd Gen not appearing in Windows Vista

Dear All:
I have a 2nd Gen shuffle that will not show up in iTunes or Windows on a Vista Home Basic machine. Vista finds an unrecognized USB device and cannot find a driver. The orange light on the shuffle blinks, and the Vista device manager keeps detecting an unknown USB device, but it goes no further. I am not receiving the "-50" error; the shuffle never shows up in either Vista or iTunes.
I have contacted Apple tech support and searched these forums with no results.
I have also:
-Run a different iPod (30GB video) on the same Vista computer. The 30GB video iPod works fine.
-Run the iTunes diagnostics on the same Vista computer on both the 30GB video (30GB iPod works fine) and the shuffle (shuffle not detected).
-Reinstalled iTunes from scratch on the Vista computer (3 different times) as described in
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305042
shuffle not detected.
-Restarted the iPod service on the Vista computer as suggested by
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
shuffle not detected.
-Reset the shuffle and plugged back into the same Vista computer. shuffle not detected.
-Tested on a different USB port on the same Vista computer. shuffle not detected.
-Tested on a MacBook Pro in the same shuffle cradle. shuffle works fine.
-Tested on a Windows XP box in a different cradle. shuffle works fine.
-Searched the mother board manufacturer for updated Vista drivers. None available.
Is there another step that I am missing, or is iTunes, the iPod service, and Vista just not talking on this particular computer?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
MacBook Pro + 2 x Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.5) Windows Vista Home Basic edition on AMD/VIA/Epox Mother Board PC

Hey, I hear ya and can sympathize. I have the same
issue. The difference is that my computer can "see"
my ipod but it refuses to show up in itunes itself;
therefore, I can't put anything on the ipod (from the
computer) and vice-versa. Apple support is clueless.
This is very frustrating to say the least. Itunes
keeps telling me that my ipod is synced to a
"different" computer, which isn't true. It's the
same computer. The difference is that when I first
got the 'pod and used it with this computer (and
everything worked fine), I was running XP. I
installed Vista and after that, all the problems
started. If I ever get this resolved, believe me,
I'll post something here.
I'm guessing that somehow, itunes "sees" what
computer it's hooked to by "looking" at something in
the OS. Change the OS and it "thinks" it's seeing a
"different" computer.
Try reformatting it.

Flash SWF not appearing in RH

I am using TCS 4 with FM 12 and RH 11.
I have an animation built in Flash and published to a SWF file.
The animation is added to a FM doc. Publishing to PDF shows the animation as expected.
I link an RH project to the FM book and the animation is missing. There is an empty frame where the animation should be, and what is in the frame is a blank PNG with a made up name (i.e. filename004.png). I can add the SWF file manually into the frame but it gets wiped during the next update. I can turn off updates but that defeats the purpose of Single Sourcing. There is no setting I can find in RH to manage importing media files.
Any help?

Yep, anchored frame.
Adding baggage files did not help.
Embedding or linking within FM did not help.
Starting with your suggestions I did a little testing and found the problem. There are, in fact, 2 SWFs in the one frame, and that was causing RH to give up on the frame entirely. If I only put a single SWF in the frame, it seems to work.
I went back into Flash and glued both SWFs together to make one, which has solved it. However it would be interesting to know if there is a way to have 2 SWFs in a single FM frame.
Thanks for the help.

I just want to organize my photos to albums and not appear anywhere else. Photos appear in Photos and no indication if they have been dealt with.

I want to load my photos onto my MacBook Pro, sort them into albums and not have them appear in other locations. If I go to Photos all of the photos in the computer seem to appear. I can't tell if they have been put in an Album or have been edited. Is there a simpler system that I can use.

iPhoto works similarly to iTunes. In iTunes, every track is in the Library and each playlist is a sub-set of the Library.
So, in iPhoto, every image is in the Library and each Album is a subset of the Library. So, your photos will always be visible in the Library and in any album you use them in. That - of course - means that any image can ne used in a multitude of albums, and use no extra disk space. So that shot of your son, daughter and their puppy can be in the Son album, Daughter album, Puppy Album and even a favourites album.
Photos and Events are simply two views of the Library - two doors to the same room as it were.
It's easy to find photos not in an Album - with a Smart Album:
File -> New Smart Album
Album -> is not -> any
and another will find Photos not editoed:
File -> New Smart Album
Photo -> is -> Edited.
As you edit a photo, or add it to an album, they will be dropped from the Smart Album.

Flash Video not appearing in PCs.. help?

Hey all,
I created a simple flash music player to put on a website. It is viewable in Safari, FireFox and Chrome on my Mac. Unfortunately, when I try viewing it in two browsers on a PC (Chrome and FireFox), it doesn't appear at all. The PC computer does have the most updated version of flash as well. Also, when I try to view the html document created from Flash on the PC computer, my flash player does not show up either.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks!

what's your url and does anything need to be done to see the problem?
