Acrobat 9 and Flash

Is there a security issue using a swf in
Acrobat that references and xml file ?
When I embed this paticular swf .. all scripts in it are seemingly disabled ?

Hi,
Just "road signs" and not the "destination".
Go to the AUC search page.

Use 'UVSAR' as string in Author search.
Use 'Rich Media / Flash' as selection for Forum search.
Discussions of Acrobat's flash, external "legacy" media and security are sprinkled about liberally.
Much of the what and why is addressed in various posts by UVSAR.
The document "Security for Flash Player compatible content in Acrobat 9" may also be helpful.

I installed CS3 Design premium upgrade yesterday onto my new mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. You gave me a new serial number. I have been able to open Photoshop, Bridge, Dreamweaver and Flash. The Illustrator, Indesign and Acrobat applications are not in my applications folder although there are folders in there with those names containing associated items. How can this have happened and what can I do?

Video Player X, Acrobat 10.1.4, and Flash

I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem for someone who is troubleshooting it for someone else who is troubleshooting it for one if his users, so I don't have direct access to the machine I'm asking about and some of the info I have could be inaccurate.
The document in question has several RMAs that display swf-based videos using the latest Video Player X (http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/videoplayerx/), set to begin when the page is opened and loop. For one user with Acrobat 10.1.4, they are not showing up and instead a FLV icon is displayed in the upper-left of one of the three RMAs on the page.
Does anyone know what could be possible causes of this? I realize the captive player was decoupled, but exactly which version of Flash Player should be installed for 10.1.4? Is it different than the one for Acrobat 11? If an external player is not installed, or an insufficient player is installed, should the user be prompted to download the correct version?
Thanks!

Decoupling only affects the Acrobat XI Family and the latest update of the Acrobat 9 Family. At this time, Acrobat and Adobe Reader X are still hanging on to their copies of captive player (which is at 10.3.183.20 as of this morning).
I have no idea where the FLV icon has come from (it's not in VideoPlayerX, if for some reason the media file won't play or the skin won't load, all you get is a blank box). Even if you overload Flash Player's memory stack by playing a heap of videos at the same time, all you should see is a drop in framerate (I've got test PDFs with 12 videos per page that all play in unison, albeit somewhat stuttery).
Ping me offline if there's any stuff you can share, and I'd love to see a screenshot of this mysterious icon.

Installation Media for Adobe Acrobat Reader and Flash without Extra Software

Is there a Installation Media format for Adobe Acrobat Reader and Flash which does not have McAfee, Google Chrome or Google Toolbar associated with the installation? This deployment is for a IT department. We do not want Google Chrome, Toolbar, or McAfee installed on our workstation, and we want to prevent our users from installing them when performing the upgrades to newer versions. We want installation media without the extra software for deployment. Does Adobe supply these?

Re The first Link:
Return, cancel, or exchange an Adobe order
Cancel your membership or subscription | Creative Cloud
I have done this. I just need the refund that was mentioned on the bottom of the page that I have already cancelled on. None of the other links on that page are relevant and none mention the word "Refund"
Re; The second link, is this a UK 0800 number or a US Number? I am in the UK. Will I be on hold for 32 minutes again if I ring this number?

Unable to install Active X and Flash Plugin for Acrobat

I would like to create a PDF Portfolio in Acrobat Pro XI. However, once I have selected the files I get a notification that states, "To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat." When I click the buttom "Proceed to download page," it brings me to this page: Acrobat Help | Flash Player needed | Acrobat, Reader XI
The problem is, the two download links for Windows don't seem to be working. Is this an across the board issue or is it just me? How can I go about installing these required plugins?

Hi asbryk,
I checked the link to install flash player and it is working fine.
If the 'Flash Player Active X' and 'Flash Player Plug-ins ' are already installed in your system, then first uninstall them.
For that, please go to Control Panel>Programs and Features and click uninstall.
Also, check whether you have an updated Acrobat version i.e. 11.0.09 by clicking Help>Check for Updates
Now, restart your system and install the Flash Player from the same link you tried earlier.
I hope this will work fine now.
Regards,
Anubha

Acrobat reader 10.0.x for windows and flash player update

i don't understand why my client require the update of reader (update of 10.0.1), but in the download page (.msp file) i can't find nothing. the other problem was about the update of flash player....i need to distribute the update over GPO, but adobe doesn't release from download page....is because the update are integrated in acrobat reader new release?
the metod is wrong! security is very important and release the updated version of software is also foundamental! IT Pro need an update (.msp or .msi) for the reader and for player.....faster not when you want
so....how you think to resolve this problem? how i can resolve my problem about the update?

Here you'll find the msi and msp files for the Acrobat Reader ("reader" folder on ftp) and Acrobat Pro ("acrobat" folder on ftp). ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/ . Save the link to your bookmarks.
For updating/installing Flash Player you'll have to go over here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
There's a distribution license needed to deploy the flash player (don't ask my why the hell you'll have to get a license to deploy it in internal environments, although you can download and install it without the license).
Best of luck, i needed a hole day to preparing deployment of cs5.5 and flash player etc. because of lack of information or consistency at the adobe pages and different methods for diffrent products. There should be a way to charge adobe the time it needs to get started, because they earn a damn lot of money with their cs products so they should provide better methods to do these tasks... but thats an endless story, because they're a monopolistic global player i think they aren't really interested in the needs of customers. There's not a real alternative, especially in education you're bound to use it, so you're gonna buy it anyway...

Bad "feature" in Acrobat Reader and Flash downloads

Please turn off the "auto-delete" function of the Adobe Reader and Flash downloads. I have a slow Internet connection and the downloads often time out when getting the install. I then have to go back to the site and download the .exe file all over again, as it auto-deletes whether it was successful or not. Very frustrating!

Hi again! I downloaded Mozilla and am VERY pleased with it. Can't believe how much better it is working than IE (I shouldn't be surprised, I know). Thank you very much! I did actually get Flashplayer 7 and once I figured out where to put it it does definitely make a difference. Had to put other things in the plug-ins folders of the browsers too. I still have a lot to learn!! It will still take a little getting used to use Mozilla. I had a little struggle with setting up the toolbar but I seem to have gotten over that hurtle. Should be interesting to see what the kids say when they use it.
After all this, it looks like we are actually about ready to order a new iMac. I realised though that if I want to keep this one running in such form as to be able to print homework assignments, etc. I will need to upgrade to OS 10.3.9 in order to use the new printer. The old one came with the computer in Aug. 01 and is unreliable these days but new ones will likely not install on OS 9.2.2 (sigh). So what would it involve to upgrade? Pure Mac did not have downloads for Panther (smile). I also did not find it in the Apple Store when I searched for it. Amazing how well the Apple Store works on Mozilla! I am so excited!!
Thanks again for all your help.

Adobe Reader 11.0.03 and Flash Player 11.8.800.94 Not Working on Windows 8

On a computer running Windows 8 Enterprise, Adobe Reader 11.0.03, and Flash Player 11.8.800.94, I am unable to open a flash-enabled PDF. Reader gives me the error "To view the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat." Adobe's Flash verification page shows me that Flash Player is working, and I can open other basic PDFs in Reader. I have another machine with an identical setup, except that it has Acrobat 11.0.03 instead of Reader, and the PDF opens just fine on that machine. Why won't Reader open the Flash-enabled PDF?

Can't open PDF with flash after upgrade Reader 10.1.5 and Flash player 11.5.502.146

We rolled out Reader 10.1.5 and Flash 11.5.502.146 [Windows 7] this week and discovered that one can not view a PDF containing Flash content.
We receive the message "To view the Flash Technology content in this PDF file, please install the required version of Flash Player".
According to the Adobe Reader Blog "As mentioned in Three Common Adobe Reader and Acrobat Security Questions, unknown Flash will now be rendered by the system Flash Player (NPAPI version), when using Adobe Reader and Acrobat 10.1.5. Note: This has already been done for Reader and Acrobat 11. As stated before, this means that Adobe Reader/Acrobat users will no longer have to update Adobe Reader/Acrobat each time we update the Flash Player."
How could we resolve the problem?

Publishing Videos and Flash PDFs

How to publish a PDF with videos and flash within the file?

If the media is embedded in the pages in InDesign you can export directly - choose Export > Adobe PDF (Interactive), and on the dialog box ensure that "buttons and media" is set to "include all".
If you want to add the media after conversion, you can do it using Acrobat Pro, and the Flash/Video tool.

Acrobat X Flash content broke with Flash 14 upgrade!

Does anyone know the deal with Acrobat's Flash content support? I recently upgraded to Flash Player 14 and now when I insert swfs into Acrobat X Pro, it tells me to download a compatible version of Flash Player for Acrobat. When I follow the link, it's broken! What is going on? Did Adobe break Flash support in Acrobat? I use this functionality quite often, and it would be miserable to have to maintain an older version just for that feature! Please help!

I ran the update for Acrobat and it now seems to be working.

Flash eight viewer and flash content in PDF

Adobe Reader Updates and Flash Plugin for Reader.

I was surprised to find out that Adobe Reader Updates and also Flash Plugin for Adobe Reader cannot be installed on Windows 7 without Admin Rights!!!!!
I remember on Windows XP this was not an issue. I am sure I have checked the possibility of installing Adobe Flash Plugin for Adobe Reader on Windows XP without Admin Rights and it worked...
Now, we have some major issue...
I have prepared Adobe PDF Portfolio for some new policy for Housing Loan, and deployed it to be open from a Web Browser. As per my testing, it worked very nice, and the Business User loved it. On Windows XP, if flash plugin for Reader is not installed, the user will be guided to install it, and it works very nicely.
Just before sending the announcement to all users, we realized that on Windows 7, if flash plugin for Reader is not installed, then when the user clicks on the link to open the PDF Portfolio, then nothing happens. The browser window will open, and it will hang.
Then we found out that on Windows 7 we have to install the Reader Flash Plugin manually, and also, the user must have Admin Rights ...
Now, a decision has been made to cancel the work done using PDF Portfolio, and develop a simple page with links to the required documents...
Any solution for this?
How we can install the required plugin without the need for Admin Right?
Why on Windows 7, the user does not get prompts to guide him to install Adobe Reader Flash Plugin?
Tarek.

I think I can see the reason for this. The Flash Player is separated from Adobe Reader; the system component is now used. (It appears that the "browser plug-in" and "Flash plug-in for Adobe Reader" are indeed the same thing, loaded from the same system location).
Adobe are following recommended practice. It is right and proper that software is installed by the administrator. This then means that the non-administrator end user is protected from malware which attempts to change that software for bad reasons.
Nobody wants to walk round installing 1000 copies of software. Personally, I'd draw the line around 5 copies. Above that, software designed for bulk use is deployed centrally using enterprise deployment tools.
There are even more powerful reasons to do this today, as security updates should be installed almost immediately, and end users won't bother. Generally, the tools are standard, but the vendor adds support for deploying software in these standard frameworks.

Getting Big Headache, What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7

Hello, I am asking questions about the two similar yet different programs for Pocket PC version only:
1) Which came first, Flash Lite 3.1 or Flash Player 7?
2) If I have both in my Pocket PC, will there be product incompatibility?
3) What is the difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Player 7.
4) I have a Flash Lite 3.1 but uninstall information says "Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera Mobile", did you releaase this? Is this an illegal copy? A developer's copy?
*I don't know exactly where I got it, but I got it from the HTC developer's forum: XDA-developers.com
*I also use Opera mobile, a web browser for Pocket PC's.
5) What is difference between Flash Lite 3.1 and Flash Lite 3.1 for Opera? Is the only difference is that Flash Lite Supports everything flash related, while Flash Lite Opera supports only flash in opera?
Hi, I don't expect all answers, but I hope someone or someone from adobe support can clear some things up for me.

The program under my "remove programs" list is specifically called "Adobe Flash Lite for Opera". The XDA forums people said along time ago that it was Flash Lite, and kept calling it Flash Lite, and not Flash Player 7.
Now what about this:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/version/
The table shows the differences between FP 7 SDK, FL 2.1, and FL 3.1. And it's quite obvious that FL 3.1 has way more features than Flash Player 7. What does SDK mean? And why are you telling me FP 7 has more features?
With this information, can you or anyone else provide any more details and clarification?
