Animated gif will not stop when placed in director

I have an animated gif I am trying to place into a director
file.
When its placed and I press play it will play the animated
gif over
and over. I also took the gif and saved it as a swf file
placed it in
director it does the same thing. Please tell me what I am
missing.
Also I will show the dir file if you need to see it.

Oops - wrong button - didn't mean to send that yet...
anyway...
You don't have much control over Animated Gif members in
Director. You
can use
sprite(animGifSprite).pause()
to stop the animation and
sprite(animGifSprite).resume()
to restart it. The tricky bit is knowing when to do those
things.
There is no way I know of to find out if the sprite is at the
end of
it's image sequence.
Perhaps a better way of going about it would be to take the
animation
apart into individual frames and load them into a swf member
(in Flash)
or a Film Loop in Director. You may have more control over
the
animation that way.
The fact that it keeps repeating over and over again is sort
of the
point of an animated gif... though I believe that you can
make an
animated gif that specifically does not loop back to the
start using
ImageReady or the newer version of Photoshop. Though I have
not tried
this...

  • Animated gif is not moving in the FireFox 3.6.3 ?

    why animated gif is not moving in FireFox 3.6.3 ?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Same problem in save mode. An animated gif will not start. No offending plugins or themes are installed.
    But if I right-click on the animation and then on "Grafik-Info anzeigen" (maybe "show grafic info") then as soon as the info window starts the animation, it is also started in the browser!
    And this error does not happen on all machines. My Win7 64bit does it right. My XP 32bit (freshly updated) freezes the animation. Weird world.

    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)

    When my iBook got hot like that, I would take a break and let it cool down.
    You can buy laptop desks that have USB powered fans on them, such as the Targus Chill Mat.

  • Rebuilding aMacBook 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, hard drive failure so rebuilding system.  Aircard will not stop self-assigning IP address.  Any ideas how to resolve successfully?

    Had hard drive failure on MacBook 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, so had to rebuild the OS on new drive. Was on Lion 10.7.5 prior to failure, but had to reinstall Snow Leopard 10.6.3 since that was most recent OS on media I had.  After finally getting ethernet connection to router working, was able to get to internet and download / upgrade to 10.6.8.  I assume I can probably buy the upgrade to Mountain Lion 10.8 from there.
    Problem is this, Airport will not stop self-assigning IP address for my wireless connection, and unless I can get wireless back on this laptop, doesn't make a lot of sense to continue the rebuild and reinstall of all the software that was on it prior to HD failure.  Only way to my home network and router is ethernet now.  Everything else on my network (Apple MacBook Pro laptops, iPhones, desktops, and non-Apple printers and laptops) is hooking up to router wirelessly fine.
    Any ideas how to resolve successfully so that the airport will stop self-assigning and allow the router to assign the IP address?

  • My ipod touch will not stop playing music

    My ipod touch will not stop playing music. I will pause the music, leave the playlist, and after 30-60 seconds, the music starts playing again. I use my ipod when I run and when I drive (hook it up to the stereo). It is very annoying when I stop to take a phone call or listen to directions, turn off my music, and then hardly a minute into my stop, the music starts right back up again.

    FUEL1996, not correct. Apple does not allow one app to control another app.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I just installed Photoshop CC 2014, but Latest version of Bridge will not work when I want to open it from PS

    Any idea why is Bridge latest version not working when trying to open it in Photoshop CC 2014 ? (French version) ? When trying, Creative Cloud app will open to ask if I want to download newest version, which I did numerous times now.
    Thank you

    Hi Eric,
    Here's how a similar problem was resolved between PS and BR.
    The issue was confirmed by ChunXiaYang at Adobe staff and solution put in the forum discussion on June 19 (no. 13). Here's a copy:
    I have confirmed that this is a known issue before release. And the workaround is to uninstall and reinstall PS 2014. Then Bridge can be launched by selecting 'Browse in Bridge' in PS2014.
    Please try the installation, and let me know whether it works. Thanks!
    It woks just fine since I unistalled and reinstalled PS 2014.

    I did this with a fresh install of the entire CC package. As soon as the CC packages updated, CC Bridge broke. Unistalled CC PS, reinstalled again, CC Bridge works, but CC PS updates itself again, and breaks CC Bridge.
    You know... The whole move to CC has been a massive cluster... I've struggled with the CC packages for my entire subscription year, and now I'm 1.5 month away from needing to throw down another $720 for no reason what-so-ever, just so we can Beta test your really screwed up subscription services.

  • Itunes 10 will not stop auto syncing

    I have itunes 10 on a mac and a 160 gb ipod classic.
    it will not stop auto syncing when I plug in my ipod, even though "do not auto Sync" button is checked as well as checking off "do not open itunes automatically.
    It syncs FOREVER. I would love to find a way to stop this from happening. I dread plugging in my ipod to put on new music etc.

    I have had this problem with Windows 7 and iTunes updates for some time. Each time it takes hours to solve but with the over the air upgrade to IOS6 on my iPhone and iPad, I was determined to solve and remember what I did, So here it is:

  • ITunes will not stop verifying

    I have an iPhone4 with the latest iTunes (10.1.0.54) and when I plug my iPhone4 in, it will not stop verifying. I used to have this problem if I canceled a sync. It would verify the phone the next time I plugged it in. I did that this time. I canceled a sync, but now it will not stop verifying to do anything else. I have left it plugged in for 14 hours and it just verifies the entire time. I can do nothing else. It is not set to sync automatically. How do I stop this?

    I'm having the same problem, but I've got a MacBook Pro (rather than a PC).
    Not only does it continue to 'verify' but it won't even let me force quit (says it's restoring my phone ... but after a number of hours it must be done already).

  • Ever since I upgraded to 4.0, the welcome tab will not stop opening. It's getting rather annoying.

    The welcome tab for the new 4.0 will not stop opening every time I open my browser. Each time I open Firefox two tabs open, the welcome page for the new 4.0 and my home page. I updated some time ago and this welcome page is becoming quite annoying. How do I stop it from opening? In the past, it has stopped after the first time I open Firefox following an update.

    Thank you for the reply. I have Google set as my homepage, and that's the only homepage listed in the Options box. I tried restoring to default, but when I opened again, the 4.0 page and Google opened again. That leads me to think it might be options, but that article meant absolutely nothing to me.
    What I find strange is that when I have one Firefox window open, then open another Firefox window, only the Google page opens, not the "get to know 4.0" page.

  • TS3474 The ipod display will not orient when turn...picture will move when turned.  Thank you.

    I've reset the ipod nano..downloaded the software again and still the display will not turn when the ipod is turned.  I don't know what else to do.  Does this ipod need to be sent back to Apple?  It's 6 months old.  Any other suggestions?  It's a 6th generation nano bought as a bundle with a armband and changer for Christmas 2011from Best Buy.

    So you placed two fingers such as your thumb and index finger in a pinchlike fashion on the Nano's display and turned them clockwise and counterclockwise and nothing happened?
    If so, you have a hardware issue, meaning you'll want to have the iPod serviced or replaced.

  • Distiller will not stop distilling postscript file

    I use Distiller 6.0.2. Lately, when I try to distill a Quark layout into a pdf the distilling process will not stop. The progress bar shows a number that just keeps on climbing up. It seems if I quit the program and then restart it, this will solve the problem and distiller will make a pdf of the postscript. However, I will get the same problem once I try to distill another page. I tried to trashing the Distiller preferences and then restarting the program. This did not do anything.

    It's not a specific file and it doesn't matter how big a file is. I am distilling a postscript file. My Mac is running on 10.3.9. I only print from Quark to get postscript files.

  • My brand new PB will not charge when in standby or when on

    I played with a number of PB's so far and finally have my own but... My brand new PB will not charge when in standby or when on; as soon as I plug the charger into the USB port it detects it and brings the screen up (if in standby) showing the lighting bolt on the battery but it does not charge; the lighting bolt stays but the % charge does not change (or hopefully increase) at all; it will actually decrease (??); the only way I can charge it is when I attach the charger and the PB is powered off… the PB brings the red (or green can't remember) LED on and starts to flash it on off and charges; tried the hard reset with no change; I am running the latest OS release 1.0.8.6067. Has anyone seen this? Is it h/w or f/w? Any Fix?

    Here's a final update on this... the units goes back to its maker or the store sometimes tomorrow... Why? First I tried to understand if this was s/w or h/w related or maybe both before calling support which in the end I did; so I did try a different charger, hard resetting the unit, discharging and recharging etc; nothing helped or fixed the charging in standby; the unit continued to charge only after being turned off and then plugged into the charger. Here's what I learned:
    1. Going through the initial setup and OS update it is quite possible for the unit to NOT load the OS image correctly i.e.  it appears that it loaded the OS and displays the OS version as if it loaded properly when in fact it did not and the image loaded is corrupt. I found this out during a live session with support when they were looking at my PC screen while the PB was connected to the PC only to point out that the Desktop Manager was showing a s/w update being available (1.0.8 bundle 6067) while the unit was reporting 1.0.0 bundle 0. Strange, I thought I already had 1.0.8.6067... after accepting the update, which takes a bit to load, I started more testing, charging, discharging, hard reset (i.e. Volume Up + Power) etc with no positive results to report. This also proved that the USB port is working, both data (PC to PB communication alright) and power (PB displays the plug over the battery bar when the power contact work)
    2. The charger I have works and it is the correct one: P/N PSM09A-050RIM; make sure it is not one of the incorrectly rated chargers some received.
    3. In order to reduce the amount of current the unit consumes when on, you have to run the Video Chat app at least once and acknowledge the (c) page; otherwise this remains as a background app that take more CPU cycles on the battery. After doing this I did notice a slight improvement in the sense that PB did charge some instead of discharging. The problem is that it only charged to about 60% and did not move higher no matter how long I waited (yes I did reset just to make sure it is not the s/w acting up and deciding to not update the power bar)
    4. The way the RIM RMA works is like this: they start the process for you to return the unit back for repair which I understand may take 10 days; you may get a unit to use for this time if so desired, it will be charged to your CC; your unit may get repaired if possible; if not possible to repair, your new unit will be replaced with a refurbished unit; once you get some unit back you need to send the “10 day replacement unit” to RIM to get your CC charge cleared. I find that this program is good for when you can not return the unit to the place you purchased it from. Otherwise it is not good as I do not like getting a refurb for something I consider brand new (not to mention that you may get a unit with a few bright or dark pixels)
    5. Throughout this process I looked at three (3) Playbooks: 2 had bright pixels and were returned immediately; this last one does not charge correctly. No win for me!
    6. The battery lasts approx 4 hours with the unit playing a video clip in a loop and WiFi on with a WEB pulled stop watch running as well (had to allow multi tasking in setup/general).
    Finally, my theory about this problem is that it is h/w related and that it is caused by the noise the board or the display is making when the unit is either on or in standby; a component not soldered properly (cold joint) or out of spec may be the culprit; for example a resistor in resistor divider monitoring the battery voltage or a decoupling capacitor missing or not soldered...
