Auto Run in Flash

Hi,
Is it possible to create an Auto Run cd in Flash without having any extra software? I want to be able to create a cd that runs automatically with buttons on the menu that will take the user to individual files? Do I need special software to do this?
Thanks for your help!

You can't for the Macintosh. The ability to autorun a cd was removed after a security issue under OS9 back in the 90s. Since OSX came out it is not possible to make an autorun CD.
But perhaps you were thinking of that other platform....
In many cases it is possible you just need to create an ini file or something like that. I can't remember exactly but I have done it before and it is easy. You can easily search with google to find out how.
However a lot of folks have disabled the feature in windows as well since it is such a security risk. So you should have an alternate plan to make it easy for your users to start it on their own as well.

  • Auto run CD menu from Flash

    Hi,
    I want to create an auto run menu for One of the
    installers.The requirement is that swf gets launched as soon as I
    insert the first CD ,but under certain conditions it'll ask for
    another cd(say 2nd CD) ...so when I take away the First CD and
    insert the 2nd CD ..the Flash menu should be running .Is it
    possible??
    If I convert the .swf to an .exe then I know it's not
    possible.Is there any other way of doing this?

    It's possible, I did that few times for a client, tho not
    with flash itself, you need
    3rd party tools.
    You see, once you remove the CD, the flash might or might not
    run. It's very random.
    To make sure the movie runs even if the CD is not in, you
    could copy it to user drive.
    I used tool call Jugglor from www.Flashjester.com
    It allow to build custom installer and copy the presentation
    to user drive then run it
    from there. There are hundreds of other options that can help
    you customize the project
    like flash could never do. Check it out, I have been using it
    for almost 10 years and
    it was best investment ever, when comes to Flash's 3rd party
    tools.
    Take note tho, I do lots of CD based work :)

  • Auto-run file on USB flash drive

    Is it possible to Auto-run a file on USB flash drive when it is first plugged in, or when it is clicked on ?

    ok, clicking on the icon of a folder can not launch anything. what you can do is make it so that when you insert the flash drive then it plays that mp3. that can be done with a folder action but I would recommend using Do Something When http://www.azarhi.com/Projects/DSW/index.php for this. it works much better than folder actions and is easier to use.

  • How to set Lion built-in FTP Server auto run off

    Hello all.
    I set FTP Server by using Rumpus Server application.
    But Lion's built-in FTP Server is running on the front.
    So if I try to connect my FTP Server out of my LAN, I can only connect to the built-in FTP Server despite I wanted to connect Rumpus FTP Server.
    It can be solved by unload the built-in FTP Server(using sudo -s launchctl unload...) but every after rebooting I should set it because it is set to run automatically in every booting.
    How can I set the auto run off?

    well, the ftp server (=ftpd) takes account info from the user list for your mac. so, go to the system settings on your mac, then to users, and then just add another user with a password of your choice (tap on the little plus-sign to add a user!). this will then be a valid user for your ftp server after you restart your ftp server.
    the other thing you want to do, about the home directory, is called chroot. you can set the home directory of a specific ftp-user to be another directory then the standard. for this, there are configuration directives in the configuration file in /private/etc/ftpd.conf which you have to edit by hand. so make sure what you do there.
    you should read this before editing the file, this will give you a better understanding of what to put there: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/darwin/reference/manpages/ man8/tnftpd.8.html

  • Job Schedule - Doesn't auto run at a given time.

    Hi
    I hope you can help. I have set up the job below:

    ( job => X

    It compiles and is viewable from dba_jobs, but for some reason doesn't seem to auto run at the times given.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

  • SSRS 2008 R2 Report parameters have default values and report not to auto run

    Hi, I am using SSRS 2008 R2 one of my requirements for a Report is all the parameters have default value and I do not want this report to auto run when users open this report. I can create a dummy hidden parameter to break the auto run for this
    report. But I am looking for solutions other than that.
    Thanks in advance..........
    Ione

    Hi lone,
    According to your description, you have a report with parameters. Now you want you report not to run automatically with your parameters default values. Right?
    In Reporting Service, if you have parameters with default values in your report, your report will always auto run with these default values. We can say these default values are used for report running initially. So for your requirement, if you really need
    to see your default value before the report running, the best workaround is set one more parameter to break the auto run like you have done. If you just want your report not to auto run, your can achieve it by removing those default values.
    Reference:
    Report Parameters (Report Builder and SSRS)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,

  • Cannot run adobe flash player on windows 8.1 pro with IE 11

    this is very frustrating and I have research multiple Q&A on this forum with no resolution.
    When I try to run adobe flash player I get the error:
    Either Flash Player is disabled or ActiveX Filter is ON.
    Please follow trouble shooting steps to play Flash content.
    I have gone through the steps to attempt to resolve this as indicated on the adobe site and it is not resolved
    Enable Flash Player
    Disable ActiveX Filtering
    Update Internet Explorer to get latest version of Flash Player
    I have removed and re-added IE 11.
    I have been trying to research this for days and have hit a dead end.
    Any recommendations?

    @paula1228,
    I'm sorry you're encountering issues with Flash Player on Windows 8.1 with Internet Explorer 11.  There is a new Flash Player update available today.  The new update should be available from the link at the bottom of the Flash Player Issues | Windows 8 page.  You can also run Windows Update from the Control Panel to obtain the latest update (KB2974008).  If the latest update doesn't display, install all available updates and then check for updates again.
    @NerdyWasabi,
    Microsoft embeds Flash Player in Internet Explorer on Windows 8.x.  Users cannot install Flash Player for Internet Explorer on their own.  They must install the Internet Explorer Update for Flash Player to update Flash Player on Windows 8.x

  • How do I get a program to run inside flash

    How do I get a program on my harddrive to run inside flash on my computer? I would like to build a Flash front end for my boat pc, but I would need to be able able to open up a program inside a flash.exe?
    would a external .ini  File work? if so what code would I use internally to execute the .ini
    any help would be greatly appreciated Sincerely newwaveboats

    Thanks for the tip about Zink, but it is not what I'm after.
    On (Release)
    FS Command ("exec", "install.exe")
    End On
    google search just revealed this button code but it was for back in the day "Flash 8" as1 or 2.  as3 your not allowed code to be plaaced on buttons.
    So I know it is possible, I just need the know how.
    EDIT: I looked further into to this, and it is perfect for my needs. my first look was quick and I saw a close to 300 price tag and that it was a compiler, 2nd longer look showed it was free for personal use and has lots of great system features.
    Thanks again combustion007 for your help was greatly appreciated, Sorry I did not realize how perfect it was when you first told me about it.

  • Slideshow auto run issue?

    I notice that when you create an auto run slideshow, if you include thumbnails or back and forward arrows, once the thumbnails or arrows are used - thus interrupting the auto run - the show does not restart to auto run afterwards and there is no play button to re start it?
    Phil

    Hello Phil,
    It is the expected behaviour of Slideshow. When an autoplay is interrupted then it cannot be started again.
    The only options in that case for user is to either use the back and forward arrows or refresh the page to start the slideshow again from the beginning.

  • KODI/XBMC auto run and script problems?

    I started a project a couple weeks ago to build a htpc using xbmc/kodi. I wanted to be able to play retro and steam games. So I've installed emulationstation and steam. Now comes the tricky part (for me anyways), writing bash scripts to access the programs through Advanced Program Launcher. Once I finally got that set up, I set the computer to login automatically and to auto run kodi. And here's where the issue happens. Normally when I run the simple script below, it closes kodi, and opens the program (so only one program is running at a time). However if I try to access the program from the auto-run instance of kodi, it doesn't close kodi before running. Instead, it opens the program and then opens another version of kodi. So if I press alt-tab it shows "kodi/emulationstation/kodi", so I have 3 programs open instead of 1 and trying to close any of them starts a cycle of new instances opening that causes a crash....
    #bin/bash
    killall -9 kodi.bin
    emulationstation
    kodi &
    So since everything runs fine when I start kodi by hand (icon and terminal), I'm assuming the problem is the way I'm auto starting the program? I've used the autostart section under the LXsession configuration, trying @kodi and @lxterminal -e kodi but both produce the same problem. Is there another/better way to autostart a program that I can do this? Or do you guys think it's an issue with the script?
    Thank in advance!!
    I'm running Arch 64 bit with the LXDE desktop.

    How do you autostart kodi ? By enabling the service ?
    In that case killing kodi would make it restart.

  • Problems installing or running Adobe Flash Player for safari

    problems installing or running Adobe® Flash® Player for safari when trying to install Adobe Flash Player.pkg it asks to quit Dash Board client then brings up Exclamation mark up and quits install ??????

    Adobe Flash is pretty much a 32-bit application. You may be able to fix the problem by going into your Applications folder, and right-clicking on Safari. There is a check box that will allow you to run Safari in 32-bit mode. Try that and see if Flash works in Safari.
    I have retired my iMac, and have an HP now, but a friend helped me with the same problem when I upgraded to Snow Leopard. My PC seems to have just one 64-bit browser, that being Internet Explorer. I am using IE9 Beta in 64-bit, and the Beta for Flash "Square" in 64-bit seems to work fine. See link below:
