Android kitkat issue in loading swf file from device. URL found but not working

Hi,
I am facing one issue from a very long time regarding file access in Android Kitkat version 4.4.*. I have developed Adobe Air player application for android and it is working as expected below kitkat version but not on kitkat.
I am following this methods -
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(InvokeEvent.INVOKE, onInvoke);
public function onInvoke(event:InvokeEvent):void
                                    var newFile:String = String(event.arguments[0]);
                                    trace("Received new file from Android: "+newFile)
Received URL form device in Android Kitkat -
/storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Animation/27 031_1_Welcome screen.swf
file:////storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Anim ation/27031_1_Welcome screen.swf
                - Loading this URL using loader class in AS3 AIR but not working.
file%3A///storage/emulated/0/.iProfData/swf/playListFiles/ContentCreation/Ma_V2_522/en/Ani mation/27031_1_Welcome%20screen.swf
       - Have used also by doing escape character but still it is not working showing file not found both SWF and mp4 case. (Mp4 case NetStream.Play.FileNotFound)
By using the above methods I can have swf or mp4 video url but when I am loading it, It is not working giving error message "File not found/ IO Error". I have read that if use escape character then it will work but I have used escape character also but it is not working.
Humble request you to please advise how can I solve this issue.
Best regards,
Sunil Kumar

Starting in KitKat, Google requires that applications have permission to access files on the system. You must specifically add either the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE or WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions in order to access files. Adding either one of those permissions should let you read/access files on the device. Prior to KitKat, you didnt have to have these permissions listed in the manifest to access files.

Loading swf files from an iPhone Air App

Although the faq says its possible ( http://bit.ly/gyxmCo ) I can't seem to load .swf files from my app.
There's no .AS code in the .swf file I'm trying to load.
PNG files load with no problems, swf's fail.
A working example would be appreciated instead of suggestions, I've spent the entire day trying out suggestions
regards,
Martijn

Because I can't see any library assets in an as2.0 file.
I've discovered that the swf fails to load as soon as you make a symbol 'export for actionscript'
probably because it will then create a class. So you can only load SWF's as simple pictures or animations, you cant use it as an asset library with multiple animations/images/sounds in it..
As for you other questions:
it doesnt matter if the file is local or on the web. same results
I created the swf file from a fla in CS4, and I'm compiling my air project that loads the swf with FlashDevelop.

I have Photoshop Elements 9. I downloaded the plug in 6.0 and it works on the RAW files from Canon EOS 60D, but not with Canon EOS 70D. I cannot download higher versions of plug in, because I have Windows Vista and it is not supported.

You could try using the DNG converter 8.7 on Windows vista:
<Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
<Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7>
You then need to watch this video to get hang of it:

Update to 10.6.8 and HP F2100 and D2400 Printers stopped working. Restored 10.6.7 and printers from Install CD's but not working, Same with scanner

Help....
Updated to 10.6.8 and HP F2100 and D2400 Printers stopped working.
Restored 10.6.7 and printers from Install CD's but not working.
Same with F2100 scanner
Am I glad I kept Windows desktop as without it I would be scre**ed now
What is going on with this latest update as its like a return to Windows with things crashing or hanging up every few minutes????
On a MacBook Air that has not been updated everything still works so what has 10.6.8 done and why won't the restore to 10.6.7 work?
Steve

None of those things you mentioned were what I suggested.
I'm guessing the "ctrl click in printer preferences" means you Reset the Printing System?
If so, that is what I would have suggested if deleting it by selecting the ( - ) button and then adding it with the ( + ) button.
But, if HP has a fix, it likely needs to update its drivers.

Is it possible to load SWF files from an SQL database?

Hi all, I am very new to flash (I am primarily a C'# developer!) and I have been asked to investigate the possibility of doing the following;
Create an application that allows swf files to be uploaded and stored inside of a SQL database as binary data (Why a database is a long story!)
Allow this binary data to be extracted via a http request to be dynamically loaded inside of a web page.
Now the first part was easy. I have all of my swf's uploaded and stored inside of the database. I have code that can make a request for the binary and write it to the response, so far so good. Now this is where I am stuck.
I thought I could dynamically load the swf binary data by creating a very basic swf that simply contains a movie clip holder and for now a simple loadMovie statement. My idea being that I can could provide a url for the loadMovie statement that returns the swf binary data. This is where I have ground to a halt.
I can see the call being made from the swf, I can see the data being returned but I cannot get it to render. I remember seeing an article some time agao where someone stated that they had used this method with success but I cannot find now. Has anyone ever done anything like? Is it even possible? Am I missing something simple?
I have tried to return both the raw binary data and also used response.write but to no avail. Can anyone help?

You are possibly trying to load AS3 swf into an AS2 Container at least the use of loadMovie() points in that direction. Be sure to use AS3 and target at least Flash 9 in your Loader/Main.swf. Also the AS3 concept of how to load swfs differs a lot from the old concept.
Look into the docu:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/Loader.ht ml
But the biggest Problem seems to me -what you mentioned- that Loader needs a (defined) URLRepuest and since your swf files have no "real" URL and you surely don`t want to let the user directly write to your server, a workaround would be to write the BinaryStream with AIR-functionality to a local installlation directory and load it then from there.

Swf files from my web site do not show in Mozilla/5.0

I HAVE DEVELOPED A WEB SITE AND THE SWF FILES AS WELL AS THE .MOV FILES DO NOT SHOW WITH Mozilla/5.0
I would like users of my web site to automatically install plugins and not manually
Thanks

For the mov file file you will need the QuickTime plugin or another plugin that can handle type="video/quicktime"
For the Flash file visitors need to have the [[Flash]] plugin installed.
I do not think that you can install missing plugin automatically, on Firefox you will always have to confirm that via the info bar at the top. A possibility to avoid installing QuickTime would to to convert the mov to a format that the Flash player can play. Most visitors will have the Flash plugin, but not QuickTime (there is no QT for Linux).

Swf files appearing in preview (D8) but not n browser after uploading - frustrated!

Hello,
I have worked with Flash and Dreamweaver on the side for a
number of years. We all know that after the recent changes, the way
it handles object and embed tags has changed to favor Java
actionscripts instead.
This code I am about to paste was created using Dreamweaver
8.02, with transitional (x) html. Now mind you, this is not the
prettiest piece of code you've ever seen. I now am learning to use
CSS layouts instead of layers/tables, with php and flash
integrated. This one example is not the only time I have had this
problem however.
I made a silly flash banner (its actually a placeholder for a
better one I have to develop) for testing purposes and sizing. It
appears fine in Firefox, and IE6 in the preview mode via
Dreamweaver. When I upload it all to the site, the flash banner
does not appear.
I have tried copying the FLA and SWF files to the root folder
(the fla, swf, and html files generated are all present), and tried
a number of variations in the code and parameters to no avail. The
darn thing just won't appear now. Similarly older pages I have
created that Dreamweaver now prompts you to "fix the object tag
that may not work in IE7...etc" have the same issue. If I select
"go ahead and fix them for me", they are visible in production, but
gone after uploading.
Now to remove the possibility that this was a layering or
parent tag issue of visibility, I created a blank HTML page and
"insert/media/flash" and stuck the banner in there, then uploaded
it to my server. It doesn't appear.
I need help. I have been scouring the web for a few days now
to no avail and have become quite frustrated with what used to be a
really easy integration of Flash and html.
Here is the top chunk of code from the page in question: (the
page is live with the missing banner here:

Cannot Retrieve referenced URL in wscript file from Local System Account, but not other accounts on the computer.

Hello,
I have a WScript File that includes an external resource (js file).
It works on one computer and it does not work on another computer.
If I run this file from a normal admin command prompt everything runs fine on both computers.
If I run this file from the Local System account using PsExec it runs fine on one of the computers and throws an error "Cannot Retrieve referenced URL" on the other computer.
The reason I want it to run from the Local System account is that it is executed from a Windows Service.
Is there some setting or some way for the IE cache to get corrupt on the Local System account or something like that?

JRV,
You are by far the worst 'support' person I've ever seen. If you aren't going to be thoughtful in providing support, don't pretend. If you're going to pretend, leave your condescension on the shelf. You have provided no thoughtfulness whatsoever to his issue,
and have in no way improved the discourse. You are arrogant and condescending without exhibiting any intelligence whatsoever. I'm impressed Matt kept calm through your demeaning, counterproductive diatribes.
Matt,
First I'd check UAC settings, because I believe that can change how elevation works substantially.
Second, I would check the versions of wscript.exe on both machines, both in System32 and SysWow, and I'd check for updates bypassing WSUS to make sure there's not something silly going on there (totally a shot in the dark, catch-all theory).
Have you made any headway in the last few weeks?
-John
This is not a support forum and it is not for assistance in fixing broken configurations. It is a scripting forum. The OP proved that the issue is not the script but the environment it is running in. You should not get mad just because you are
not getting satisfaction.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why does embeded .swf file goes crazy in IE but not in other browsers?

hi everyone
I'm building a SharePoint page with an embedded .swf file that is capable of detecting the current URL to activate and show content. Everything goes smoothly in all the browsers I've tested it except IE. When I open the SharePoint page in IE the .swf just reproduces the frames non stop, It completely ignores my scripts and I cant find anything that could be responsible of this. besides the url detection script, i just have simple button configuration for the timeline and general stops.
any idea?.....anyone?

Normally when swf's play differently for different browsers it is due to the embedding code used in the html page.

SWF file opens in safari / firefox but not IE

Hi.
I was wondering if someone could help me. I'm working on a flash project that people can download from the internet and use or just use on the internet. I'm have a problem with one of the links however. Its a button that is to link to a excel file, at the minute the following code works in safari and forefox, it opens the file pefect in a separate window, but in IE it opens on the same window. does anyone no what the problem could be? The code i'm using is
on (release) {
getURL("../docs/OIA.xls", _blank);

I can't say if this will fix it, but you can try putting quotation marks around "_blank"... it is a String argument so it should be quoted just like the URL is.

Import From Device "show preview" Does not work for RAW (Canon T1i/500D)

Hi,
Not sure if anyone else has seen this. I just got a canon T1i (500D for you Europeans). When I plug the camera into the computer and select Import From Device, and select "show preview" in the import window, only the JPEGs show thumbnails. All of my RAW images show up as grey boxes. This is the first digital SLR I ever owned, and the first time I am really using lightroom. This kills my workflow plans, as I ususally download images into folders, and name them, by category. Without seeing the thumbnails, it is impossible to know what category what images belong to.
Anywone have any ideas? Does this happen with all RAW images on all cameras? Is it a T1i problem?
Thanks.
w0den

OK, I have the previews working now, which is good. Here is how I am using the tool.
1) put the card in a card reader
2) select import from device
I noticed a couple of things that are very frustrating:
1) I Don't see a way to delete photos from the import tool, either manually or automatically after import. I seem to have to delete thing through explorer (I am on windows xp)
2) There is no indication of whether you have downloaded an image already or not. The software that came with the camera puts an arrow on all downloaded pictures. This is very nice if you are not importing all your pictures at once.
3) My camera takes movies. There is no way to import them along with the rest of the files (yes I know lightroom is not a movie tool, but having to use another program or explorer is annoying). Furthermore, every time I try to import files when there is a movie on the card, I get an error saying movies will be skipped. The pics still import, but it is irritating.
Any suggestions? I am trying to figure out a good work flow. I would import everything and than organize the files, but I don't see any easy way to resort files and rename them en-mass. I tried moving files in explorer, but, as could be expected, LR could not find the files afterward. I re-synced the folder, but that lost the changes I made on images (I did not have them saved as DNG, so the modifications were in the side car, I guess).
Thanks,
w0den

Load SWF file from AIR library module.

Hi,
I am writing a testing agent (record and playback agent) for Flex applications.
Here, I am required to load a SWF object (in a new window) from a AIR module library.
And then I need a handle to the newly opened SWF so that I can perform testing operations on it.
How can I accomplish this. Any links or sample code is welcome.
Thanks,
Pradeep.

10.0.1 is very old, we're on 11.2 now. Do you know about when this started breaking for you? I'd suggest two things. First, you might want to post over on the Flash Pro forums as there's a larger developer audience there and someone might have a quick answer for you. Next, you might want to open a new bug at bugbase.adobe.com. Please include detailed steps to reproduce, along with a link to your site and / or sample code so we can test this internally.

Using files from dreamweaver 8 in CS5 - not working

Hi All
I made 2 websites a few years ago in Dreamweaver 8. We now have windows 7 at work so we are trialling CS5.
Basically, i open up our web files (which were made in Dreamweaver 8) in CS5 and the site ios not being very friendly at all. It is almost like it doesn't recognise the codes and formats properly.
And to change one line of text - i select and change colour - it changes the whole 3 paragraphs.
Is Dreamweaver 8 files compatible with CS5.
Need help
one website is www.progressivegroup.com.au
in the old version i could simply make changes with out any bit of hassel, in the new one i can barely do anything with out it going crazy on me!!
Thanks

Thank you for your help.
Are the code errors from Dreamweaver 8?
I am not the best with this sort of thing.
How do i fix the errors so i can use the web siles in CS5?
also, how do i validate the code?
Thanks again

Trying to upgrade to 10.4.7 from 10.3.9 but not working please help!

ok so first off I have no problem with panther. I have been happy with my powerbook b4 titanium for the past 6 years now. but now that I went and bought a new iphone 3G , my powerbook doesn't support it. fortunately I converted my parents over to mac last year and they have a i-mac that does support it. but I dont want to have to go to their place to sync my iphone ... I am going to buy another mac even though I really dont want to spend the money but for the time being I need the help to get tiger on this laptop.
here are the specs
powerbook g4 titanium
667 MHz powerPC G4
1MB L3 cache
512MB RAM
OSX 10.3.9
ok so I have 2 CD's for OSX 10.4.7
I put the first CD in and I get the big error screen and the last command or statement darwin makes is "we are hanging here" what ever that means. but thats all it will do. the cd reads fine while OSX is up and reading files.
any ideas?

I hate to interrupt your fuming, Joshua, but those Apple "nazis" do still sell Tiger as of a few days ago. Call 1-800-SOS-APPL and ask for Phone Sales (not iPhone sales, but a sales department that only operates over the phone, not through the online store).
As for "I just love how they dont support older products anymore," I think if you look around a little, you'll discover that Microsoft doesn't sell outdated versions of its OS any more, and most car manufacturers aren't selling their 2005 car models any more either. In fact the practice of not selling discontinued, superseded products is standard across most industries. Apple's continued selling of Tiger long after the introduction of Leopard is quite unusual.
And as for the "nazi" practice of not allowing you to install Tiger on your Powerbook from the Intel iMac's discs, the machines use entirely different architectures, and the iMac discs are configured specifically for the Intel architecture. The OS on them is also licensed for use on only one computer, not multiple computers, as you would know if you read the license agreement. And while you may never have encountered this limitation before, the discs that are shipped with every Mac have always, since the mac's earliest days, been specific to that machine model and, in all but a few exceptional (and accidental) cases, unusable on any other model. Apple has never changed this longstanding policy/practice. It's nothing new.
