Adobe FP has stopped a potentially unsafe operation

I'm running Flash Media Developer Server (free version of Flash Media Server 3.5 for development purposes) that serves as my localhost for streaming FLV files to my SWF media player. When i try to run an HTML file with the embedded SWF file that accesses an FLV on my localhost server, i get this "Adobe FP has stopped a potentially unsafe operation" security message. I tried adding to the location trust list "localhost", "http://localhost", and even specifying the folder and file name e.g. C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5\applications\vod\media\myfile.flv and http://localhost/vod/media/myfile.flv. Not even System.security.allowDomain("*"); works which is supposed to allow all domains....

Harry
When you run your embedded swf, are you running it from a http location ? i.e. the URL on the browser should be a http location and not file:///
Also, make sure the publish the swf as "access network only" swf and not as a local swf.
Hope this helps

  • Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.

    Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. Like many others, I am getting this error. However, the people who will be viewing the content do not have access to the internet, nor can they access the Control Panel (computers are locked down) to adjust their Flash Player Settings. How can I resolve this problem for them? Is there a way of saving the files at my end that would prevent this problem at their end? Any help would be appreciated.  Lavern

    Hi Chris:
    Thanks for the fast reply!
    I looked. Unfortunately, the people viewing it have their laptops locked down, so cannot access the Internet, Control Panel or Flash Player Settings. So the suggestions there do not help. Anything that you suggest?
    Is there anything I can do at the production end to help?
    Thanks again for your response. It is a bit of an urgent situation, so I really do appreciate it.

  • I get a message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.

    I use Articulate to create my player.html files. When I double click my player.html file I get a message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.  Then it shows me the name of a swf file in my files that is trying to communicate with the player.html.  Then is say s to let this application communicate with the internet , click settings but that doesnt seem to help.  I've tried clicking on all the tabs that are under the settings window that opens up but the problem persists

    This is from my Mac, but it's the SAME on Windows.
    I'll post a windows screen shot as soon as I reboot my laptop.

    Dear Sir,
    This is regarding the error which i am getting when i open
    one perticuler adobe application
    "error adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe
    operation "
    I got one cisco flash presentation i am not able to open the
    file because of this error. It would be really helpfull for me if
    you could guide how to solve this problem.Awaiting your reply.I
    would appreciate your earleast reply
    Regards
    Lijesh.

    I'm getting the same problem. No explaination of why, and
    downgrading all my security to DANGEROUSLY unsafe levels doesn't
    help, nor does setting anything in the settings app. (Have you ever
    used a slower application?)
    I did find (using a Google search) a blog that pointed me to
    the article located at this address:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=13530cdd
    I don't know yet if it will help, but it appears to be on the
    right track.
    Good luck.

  • Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation - Facebook

    When I look at pictures in facebook and click out of the pictures I have a message that pops up every time and sometimes shuts down Firefox. It says:
    Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following application on your computer or network: [object] is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location: www.facebook.com. To let this application communicate with the Internet, click settings. You must restate the application after changinn your settings.
    I have run my virus scanner and have not picked anything up. My son downloaded music frost and wire frost (or something like those) and I deleted them before he downloaded anything but it somehow changed my settings of the search provider and home page on firefox and now this happens. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

    I think what I would do first, since there is a question on what was downloaded/Installed. Go to Control Panel/Programs & Features and take a look to see if any of those programs are Installed. If you see any that you don't want, remove them from there and restart your computer.
    AVG can miss malware and don't find everything. I would go to www.malwarebytes.org and DOWNLOAD and SAVE to your Desktop the Free version. Then update it if it doesn't automatically. Then close the window.
    Close all browser windows and Disable AVG. Then open Malwarebytes(MBAM) and run a full scan. If anything is found follow their instructions for removing it. When that is done, run a Quick scan with it.
    Thanks,

    Also, what pop up are you receiving? Who is it coming from? What Settings are you speaking of?

  • Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation... yahoo media player

  • Adobe Flash Player stopped a potentially unsafe operation

    Does anyone know what this is about: a popup appeared which
    said:
    Adobe Flash Player stopped a potentially unsafe operation
    The following local application on your computer or network:
    javascript:parent.payload1018
    is trying to communicate with the Internet-enabled location:
    msn.server-sys.com
    It then goes on to advise that if I want to allow the
    communication I should click on Settings.
    This sounds like a virus problem. Can anyone advise me on
    this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for responding Gary. Pretty funny about the Google
    comment - never occurred to me. Anyway I have spent the last 2 days
    running many of the online scanners - Kapersky, Symantec, Macafee,
    (currently running Nod32) and some malware software: Adaware,
    SuperAnitSpyware, and some rootkit detectors and those are the ones
    I can remember! Issues were found (some known, some not) and 2
    items pointed out were actually installed by me but did not do any
    damage (I looked at the registry and other places for telltale
    signs of virus deployment as per Symantec instructions for those
    flagged virus's but I was ok) however not one of the flagged items
    explains the javascript warning. So far my computer has been on for
    more than 24 hours and I have not seen any messages appear
    (Javascript or otherwise) - especially since I cleaned out my
    restore points. It looks like my installed antivirus software
    (TrendMicro) worked for the regular virus problems and somehow
    Adobe caught the javascript issue. I guess I just have to hope
    there is nothing going on that is getting past them. This is what I
    get for being a little risky lately. My antivirus and firewall
    software are on high alert mode for the time being and we'll see
    what happens from here. I take a look at the software you
    suggested. If you find anything else out about the javascript error
    let me know.
    Thanks.

  • Warning : has stopped a potentially unsafe operation

    Hi. When i'm visit some website have Flash applications , and i may enounter this warning :
    Adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation
    Can anyone have get around for this. Please help.Thank!

    When running Flash files locally in the browser, they're allowed to access files on your computer or talk to the Internet, but not both.  This content is compiled to read local files, but is trying to access the Internet.
    You can run a local webserver and access the files that way.  If you're technical, that's the best way to go.  If not, you can try to click Settings and add the folder to the trusted folders location, but the browsers have changed a lot in the last couple years and the local file support is a pretty big mess because of all the fragmentation in support for this across the browser space.  In short, if it doesn't work in your favorite browser, try a couple other ones.

  • Flash has stopped a potentially unsafe operation (all files are local)

    We trying to run a small flash movie locally from a local html with some javascripts to communicate to and from the flash movie and it worked fine
    however sometime late last year we started seing this message pop up. So it must been some changes in flash and/or in the browsers.
    Running IE9 in compaility mode allows the flashmovie to work correctly.
    Now we want this to work on Mac as well and I can't get Safari to avoid this.
    Main problem is that for whatever reason Flash thinks the local html file is internet-enabled. The error box is not saying a link to an internet site, just like this:
    Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.
    The following local application on your computer or network:
    C:\location\file.swf
    is trying to communicate with this Internet-enabled location:
    C:\location\file.html
    Why can't we no longer run flash movies locally like this. There is no interaction with internet in any of the files.
    How do we fix it, having the users add the directory in Trusted locations in Flash Global Settings is not a good way.

    either adjust your security settings:  http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
    or, test online.

  • Overiding "Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation"

    Hello,
    I have an application that is causing flash player to display
    the ""Macromedia Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe
    operation" warning message and I was wondering if there was a way
    to override this w/ a publishing setting or an actionscript System
    command.
    It's rather crucial that I kill this error message for our
    users.
    Thanks for your help!

    TabNavigator causes that dialog to crack.  When I remove it, dialog doesn't open, add it back in, unsafe dialog pops.
    I made it as simple as:
    <mx:TabNavigator width="100%" height="100%" />
    Removing that one line determines whether dialog opens or not.
    Weird.
    I created a simple SWF with a panel and tabnavigator on it and attempted to run it but no dialog opens so there is another variable somewhere causing this.

  • Disable dialog: Adobe Flash Media Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation

    How do I prevent this dialog?
    http://www.corenetworkz.com/2011/04/adobe-flash-player-has-stopped.html
    I've set it to Always deny here
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l
    I don't want to see this dialog.
    By the way, sometimes the dialog doesn't allow input so the only way to get rid of it is to end plugin-container.exe. It's like the famous mouse detection error in the flash dialog
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=552520
    although this dialog doesn't seem to run from flash but looks like a regular Windows API dialog.

  • Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation - using Yahoo Mail

    For months I have been getting this error message when using Yahoo mail. Going into the control panel and adding the domain doesn't fix the problem. In fact, Flash Player seems to just ignore any domains I add there (I often get multiple "potentially unsafe" messages as Yahoo loads). Some other web sites also cause this same problem-- for example, YouTube.
    I am completely frustrated by this behavior. If there is an open source substitute for Flash Player, I'd be interested to know about it. I'm tired of all these error messages and I'm also tired of constantly having to update Flash Player, which seems to be happening on a weekly basis now. It seems to me that Flash Player has outlived its usefulness and should be done away with because it is way more trouble than it is worth. It is buggy software.
