(2ndPost) Problems opening a .fla (flash) file.

I was sent a link via email to download an .fla file. When it was downloading it said that the file may contain an application. Then when I check the file info, it says open with flashplayer (but the icon is older looking). I have updated my flashplayer but it wont open it either....
I removed an older version of flash player from my computer and the file tried to open.
this is what I saw:
*! You are opening the application "start" for the first time. Are you sure you want to open this application?*
The application is in a foler namer "ENU". To see the application in the finder without opening it, click Show Application.
-so I clicked show application and I saw a swf file and a flashplayer app named "start" version 7r14
im so lost...
I just want to open it, add sound and resend it with my revisions
can any one help?
also when I click "Open" instead of "Show Application", I see and the older flash icon and then my screen goes dark blue. The only way out is to commandoptionesc.

Telling me to go to wiki is kinda rude. Although Wiki has some valuable info, it is sometime incorrect and therefore unreliable and unusable just as you answer was.
I don't know that Wikipedia is any more unreliable than your asking on a discussion list populated by total strangers and anybody can post here... (though I must say that both Wikipedia and this discussion forum have a fairly high level of commitment and quality considering both are conducted by self-assigned volunteers). If you're desperate to get your own paid employment assignment done by the weekend and are worried about reliability then consider hiring a Flash programmer.

  • Error: "We're having a problem opening this location on file explorer. Add this website to your trusted sites list and try again"

    Hello,
    When i try to open document library from SharePoint Production portal then it throws the specified error. However, when i open document library from SharePoint Development portal then it opens it in file explorer quite easily.
    Production portal is on https whereas development portal is on http. Also, UAG has been configured on production portal.
    Any idea where it's getting stuck up? Surely, this is not a browser issue on Windows 7 as it's opening the development portal's document library on the same machine.
    I've also done following things:
    - Configured Desktop Experience on production environment
    - Installed the hotfix for Windows 7
    Regards,
    Sohaib

    Hello Sohaib.
    Here is the list of causes defined here.Hope it helps you
    The cause and the resolution methods are the following:
    Cause: There is a missing Root site collection...
    Resolution: Check and ensure,  that the “Managed Paths” are not changed in the web Application’s page, there is a (root) explicit for
    this web application and there is a working Root site collection.
    If for any reason this is not the case in your environment, you may try the following:
    - Apply (if not already) the following Hotfix to one of those clients:
    Error when you open a SharePoint Document Library in Windows Explorer or map a network drive to the library after you install Internet Explorer 10 in Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2846960
    Then, try to delete the cache of the IE browser before reproducing the issue. Check the result..
    - Try to temporarily disable the Antivirus and test again.
    - Check if you have installed the Desktop Experience feature on the SPS13 server.
    - Check if you face this behavior with all users, Or only with some specific ones, Or with all different client OSes.. 
    Otherwise you will need to collect the logs to further analyze...

  • Sharepoint 2013 explorer view error - problem opening this location in file explorer (HTTPS + Win7 Enterprise 64 bit + IE9 32 bit + Office 2007 32 bit)

    Hi,
    We have a problem using Sharepoint 2013 explorer view. (Error - We're having a problem opening this location in file explorer. Add this web site to your trusted sites list and try again).
    I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit, Office 2007 32 bit and IE9 32 bit. And the sharepoint site is a https site.
    Some people in my organization are able to browse and some users getting the above error. (with the same client machine configuration)
    If I clear my browser cache, closes the browser and open it then the explorer view is working. But after a minute if I try again I'm getting the above mentioned error. This 1 minute expiration happens is since the first time I have used explorer
    view, not since I opened the browser.
    I have tried the following on my machine:
    1. Modified the web client service to run automatically.
    2. Verified the sharepoint site is part of trusted sites (https://*.spsite.com/)
    3. Compatibility mode is turned on.
    4. Tried adding
    AuthForwardServerList in the webclient registry settings under parameters. (restarted the web client)
    5. Verified the BasicAuthLevel set to 1 (since we are using SSL). Tried setting the BasicAuthLevel to 2 as well. (restarted the web client)
    6. Tried installing software update for web folders (KB907306).
    Verified the below on the production server:
    1. The web application has the root site collection.
    2. It has WebDav Publishing disabled under IIS Web Server feature.
    Could some one please help me in resolving this issue?
    Thanks.

    Hi  Deepak,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to use "Open with Explorer"  in a document library.
    For your issue, please verify the following:
    ActiveX controls must be enabled in IE.
    As you are using Windows 7 Server as the client computer, you must install the Desktop Experience feature from Server Manager.
    Make sure there is a working Root site collection.
    Install this hotfix for windows 7 work with sharepoint 2013 :hotfixv4.microsoft.com/.../463266_intl_x64_zip.exe

  • How can I open an old Flash file?

    A tech person and I created a show in Flash in 2004 called Black on Black / 13; I'm not sure which version of Flash we used. It was put up in the Gallery of the website of a group I headed called The Lark Ascending, and sometime between then and now it disappeared off that website. I have about half a dozen Flash files of the show, but they will not play in the current Flash player or open in the current version of Flash, both of which I own.
    I have the original jpegs and music and intend to recreate this work in another program and post it on Vimeo, but it would be very helpful and time-saving if I could use the original show as a reference as it is a highly complex work, and without the reference, it will take me a VERY long time to re-create it.
    Is there any way to get one of those old files to play?  I have older versions of Flash and probably the player from previous Creative Suites?  Should I reinstall them and try them?  Is it a lost cause?
    Thanks for whatever, including the awful truth,
    Karla

    It sounds important to you, so you should try a few things.
    You mention the year 2004; that was when Flash Player 7 was around.  Try downloading Flash Player 7 from the archive page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html
    Make sure to uninstall the current version first with the uninstaller linked on that page.

  • Problem opening 32bit HDR tif file

    Hi
    This is driving me mad. I've searched the forum and there are several similar posts, none of which solve this problem, so I'm posting a new thread.
    Essential stuff:
    CS5 v12.0.3 x32
    Windows Vista 2G RAM
    Memory usage in CS5 performance preferences set to 59% (I've tried everything from 10% to 90%)
    Windows Virtual Memory set to 4G
    Scratch disk has 20G free
    I've already tried deleting the preferences file
    The file it can't open is a 32bit HDR tif, 135Mb (hardly huge). I immediately get the error "Could not complete your request because there is not enough memory (RAM)" - yes, I've goggled this but the suggested solutions don't help. It routinely opens 32bit HDR tif files of about 35Mb, so I'm guessing the problem is something to do with the file size.
    If anyone can help I'd be eternally grateful
    Thanks
    Doug

    2 GB isn't really a lot of RAM to have in your system by today's standards, though one would think it would be enough that you should be able to open a single 135 MB file...
    What's the pixel count in that file?
    How was the file created?
    I just started a fresh copy of Photoshop CS5 32 bit and it seems to be taking about 200 MB in RAM, before opening any image.
    Just guessing at the image size, I created and saved a 141,193,460 byte 32 bit TIFF file.  Opening that file, peak memory usage by Photoshop (program and data) was a hair under 500 MB.
    Given that your OS should be using no more than about 500 MB to 1 GB of RAM, this should still leave space available for you to open this one file.
    Have you tried creating and saving another file of equal size, and opening that?  Doing so could help determine whether perhaps the file you're trying to open is somehow corrupted, or whether it's a basic RAM problem.

  • Problem openning + setting up Flash cs3 trial

    I get an error when i open ADBEFLPRCS3_WWE.EXE (Flash cs3 )
    this is the picture:
    My
    Error i get when i open the Flash cs3 setup, please click image to
    get a better view.
    And please zoom in to the picture to see the error ( just
    click the image)
    It comes up with an error! Ive already downloaded flash mx
    2004 and flash 8.
    Hopefully you can help!

    The fix: Change the namespace on the second line of <project root>/src/ANESampleTest-app.xml
    FROM:   <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/3.6">
    TO:   <application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/13.0">
    A brief and incomplete background:
    The file <project root>/src/ANESampleTest-app.xml is the ‘application descriptor file’. When using the project files downloaded with the tutorial (that contained the 3.6 reference), the builder did not find this compatible with the configuration on my computer (a trial version I installed today - 5/3/2014 - and patched according to the tutorial). I never did figure out how to lookup valid namespaces and am still confused about how all the sdk’s relate to each other. I stumbled upon this solution by creating a fresh new project and found that the namespace specified by the new project wizard was “13.0” on this line of this file.

  • Problems opening up 2011 raw files in current Photoshop.

    I'm having problems opening up some of my older RAW files in Photoshop CS6 and CC. It extends to both dng and cr2 files. They display as a monotone image, with no original color present. I can copy the files to another computer with CS5 and open them up there and they're fine, and I can resave them and they're OK. But this could be a looming problem. What's going on?

    Ha! It's a camera profile thing, I have a profile for my IR converted 5D, and for some reason some of my files had that profile applied. If I opened it in a computer without that profile on it, it opened up fine. Thanks.

  • Any problems opening Illust. 10 files with illus. CS3?

    I'm working on a logo in Illustrator 10 at home...my old g4 tower is running 10.3.9...
    I'll be using these files on a new laptop, a MBP with leopard...I'll be upgrading to CS3 for Illustrator...
    there won't be any major text files, just logo work...mostly type, an acronym...perhaps some mark design like circles, ovals, squares, etc...
    anything i need to know about now that won't work when I upgrade and transfer these files to a new computer?...I just want to make sure I don't keep my client waiting while i have a nervous breakdown trying to open and use my files :-)
    thanks for any advice...
    M

    Keep the G4 for backup in case things get out of hand. I'm like you are, still using v10 via OS10.3.9 and have concerns. Wade is correct about text, I believe Adobe rewrote the font engine in CS1 and there was some confusion on how to handle the transition. The problem with a triple upgrade like ours is: 1.) you're upgrading the CPU which affects peripherals and existing system applications like font management, 2.) you're upgrading from Panther to Leopard while totally bypassing Tiger, so there may be issues with missing updates ( although unlikely ) and some vendors not yet ready for Leopard, and 3.) Adobe is trying to keep pace with Leopard w/CS3, so there are probably issues that have not yet been discovered and some that have ( per Wade ). I've done some recent work with CS2 apps via Tiger ( OS10.4.1? ) and Apple's Mac Mini Intel based CPU and didn't perceive any real problems. But, again, those were just generic, education baed machines that didn't have print capabilities, font management, or outside peripherals ( probably the best way to run the system ).

  • How do I use text to open two different flash files?

    Basically I want to use a flash file, which requires you to enter text and a button to click. If I typed in 'Movie 1' and clicked enter, it should take me to 'Animation 1.swf', if I typed in 'Animation 2' it should take me to 'Animation 2.swf'.
    I don't have the time to relearn flash completely even though I want to, I haven't used flash in about 3 years and really struggling to remember anything, hate being a novice
    Thank you so much

    Hi ,
    As Ned suggested you could use something like this -
    function startLoadingSwf()
    var mLoader:Loader = new Loader();
    var mRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(<name of the swf which you are picking up from the text field - text_field.txt>);
    mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onCompleteHandler);
    mLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onProgressHandler);
    mLoader.load(mRequest);
    function onCompleteHandler(loadEvent:Event)
            addChild(loadEvent.currentTarget.content);
    function onProgressHandler(mProgress:ProgressEvent)
    var percent:Number = mProgress.bytesLoaded/mProgress.bytesTotal;
    trace(percent);
    startLoadingSwf();
    Hope that helps!

  • Problems opening a certain CR2 files

    Hi,Can anyone help with this one, in May last year I shot some images on a Canon 450D in RAW, when I imported them into Aperture, they showed the unsupported message, Apple then updated aperture and now they only open as a thumb nail, I thought I might have mistakenly shot these in sRAW so tried opening in the Canon software but still no joy. In the metadata it shows a pixel size of 170 x 256 but a file size of 15.55mb which really doesn't make sense.
    Please help if you can.
    Regards
    Steve

    There are 2 issues here that combine to cause them not to open: the way the files were written, and how much memory Photoshop will allocate for decompressing a single image tile.
    Image Width: 14101 Image Length: 18206
      Resolution: 400, 400
      Bits/Sample: 8
      Compression Scheme: PackBits encoding
      Samples/Pixel: 3
      Rows/Strip: 18206
      Number of Strips: 1
    The images are written as one huge image tile/strip that decompresses to something around a Gig per tile.
    Decompressing that quickly is going to require allocating a buffer over a Gigabyte to hold the data.  Photoshop sets some limits on how large a tile buffer it will allocate so that you don't wait hours for the OS and Photoshop to free up the required space. Yes, we really had user documents that were spinning for an hour or more trying to allocate the buffer space to decompress them, even on a 64 bit system with quite a bit of RAM - hence the limits.  Your documents, written as a single huge tile, exceed the limits that Photoshop will allocate for a single tile.
    The TIFF spec recommends that documents be saved in smaller tiles (though one line per tile is excessive).  Even moving to a few hundred Meg per tile would allow Photoshop to decompress the image data successfully.  Either you should choose different TIFF output options when scanning, or communicate to the makers of the scanner that they should read the TIFF specification and talk to Adobe about improving their TIFF implementation (which would send them back to me).
    Also, the images are also written using PackBits (a run length encoding scheme) that is not a great compressor.  Using LZW or Flate would have decreased the size of the files considerably (half the size, or better).
    For the time being, you can use some of the libTiff command line tools to unpack and repack these files to work better with Photoshop and other applications.

  • Problem opening xcelcius 4.5 file

    Hello,
    I wrote an xcelcius file in version 4.5 and then I tried opening it in a different computer which also had 4.5 and I got the following error: 
    "Invalid Version found PK.  Crystal Expects version 1.1.0.2"
    How do I make it work?
    Thanks,
    Isaac

    I've only seen this happen on 2 occasions:
    1.) Opening an Xcelsius file in Xcelsius 2008, saving it in 2008, and then attempting to open it in 4.5
    2.) Accidentally opening a non-Xcelsius file in the application.
    This is a just a guess, but was the file opened and saved in Xcelsius 2008?  If so, attempting to open it in 4.5 again will show the error.

  • Problems opening Mac .fla files on a PC

    Hi,
    Sorry in advance not to have fully searched the forums; I'm stuck away from work using crappy Australian 3G wireless....
    A work partner is using Flash CS3 on a Mac.
    She sends me her .fla files for me to edit which I cannot open.
    I'm using Flash CS4 on a PC.
    Is there a simple way to fix this problem; it's driving us crazy and really slowing down development. I haven't had this problem before working between PC and Mac formats...
    Many thanks in advance,
    Mez

    No special program should be needed. She can just right click on the item and Compress the file to a zip. I just tested it myself from home to work and it is fine. And you should just be able to Right click and extract all.
    Since you are having problems with the zips my guess is that it has to do with how the files are getting sent.
    You didn't answer my question about file sizes, but I'm guessing that they are way too small. The Mac tracks its files differently than Windows. So sometimes people get two files with the same names -- a small file that doesn't work and a larger one that is the correct file. Or perhaps just the smaller file. That is what I'm guessing is happening.
    Make sure that the mac user has "Send Windows Friendly Attachments" selected. It is under the Edit menu I think. Or it can be selected on an attachment by attachment basis in the attaching dialog (assuming that she isn't just dragging and dropping it into the e-mail.)
    If that isn't it the only other thing I can think of is that one or the other of you have some kind of accelerator software that is maybe messing up the attachments?

  • Problem opening Samsung NX1100 SRW files in CS6 and Lightroom 4

    I bought a Samsung NX1100 and want to shoot in Raw format. My CS6 Bridge and Photoshop will not open the SRW files though. I downloaded the lightroom 4 that came with the camera and that will not read the SRW files either. How do I access my SRW files?

    I'm having much the same problem, except I'm shooting with an EX2F. I've tried reinstalling CS6 (I have extended) and updating to the latest patches, but no go. Photoshop and Bridge can see the files, but cannot open them or draw thumbnails for them. I have also tried installing the latest version of Adobe DNG converter, I get the same result with this.
    I'm on a Macbook Pro, lastest OS with latest updates.
    I saw on another thread somewhere that changing the file extension from .SRW to .CRW is the fix. I tried this with a couple of files but again I am still unable to open the files.
    Apparently there's a raw converter for Samsung cameras but I haven't been able to find it. which is available on the Samsung website NX200 - DOWNLOADS | SUPPORT | SAMSUNG I don't know if it converts to JPG or another RAW format yet. Hopefully the link doesn't get wiped and it's useful to someone else.
    EDIT: Looks like it's a standalone RAW developer. It only outputs jpg or TIFF.
