Bitmaps and Symbols Appearing Red?

Hey guys I am pretty new to flash and cannot figure this out.
I am using Flash to create a website and I am having issues. When I
am editing everything looks normal, but when I test the movie a few
of my graphics are displayed as just solid red. I have no idea what
is going on, even my teacher at school is dumbfounded. I have used
all sorts of different file formats for my imported bitmaps, jpg,
png, gif... but none have worked. Also this is a problem that seems
to only be happening on intel Macs. Works fine on a PPC mac and on
windows... Any suggestions? Here is a photo of the problem...

I don't have an answer, but may have a clue to lead to one.
That red is a familiar sight. If you create a movieclip containing
a jpeg or other raw graphic from the library, and then delete the
raw graphic from the library, you end up with a red movieclip
that's the same size as the graphic.
That fact that it apparently works in other machines may mean
that whatever the intel Macs are doing, they aren't supporting
inclusion of the image file in the movie.
If those red areas are supposed to be images, then try
replacing them temporarily with some Flash drawn graphic and see if
they display properly. If they do, then you may have to get some
info regarding what the intel Macs are doing (or the
browsers/players therein).

    I have seen this problem hundreds of times. It's a long
    standing flash bug, and very annoying.
    when I open a file containing many bitmaps and one of them
    shows up red,
    a quick look in the library shows <Bitmap Not Loaded>
    in the preview window.
    If you double click to try and re-load the image, Flash will
    crash.
    Presumably flash was unable to load the particular bitmap for
    <technical reason beyond me>
    The only solution I have is to recreate the bitmap art from
    scratch, or from a secondary file I saved because this happens to
    me so often. I sure wish they'd fix it...

  • Strange formatting and symbols appearing in podcast description fields

    Hey guys!
    Hope you're enjoying your weekend so far. I'm having problems with the text formatting in the podcast description sections. For some reason strange characters are added in the podcast description fields that aren't there when I initially enter them in. Examples "nbsp;" "mdash", "ersquo;s". I feel like its related to the font or when I use punctuation. Can anybody here point me to the solution?
    Check out what I mean here. This happens in both the main description and in the individual show descriptions:

    Thank you in advance guys! Really appreciate it

    These are incomplete html codes for characters - you've left off the ampersand which must begin them.
      is a non-breaking space
    &rsquo; is the apostrophe or quote - '
    &emdash; is a wide dash.
    Firstly: you cannot use these named codes in XML, you have to use the numerical equivalents. If you are handwriting the code you can use &apos; for the apostrophe. But in general you should avoid using any of these codes: the iTunes Store usually does not render them but displays them. You should stick to plain text and paragraph returns. You've used a straightforward apostrophe elsewhere - 'She's been pIcked up by al the major labels' - and that's worked; so use that instead of the quote, use a straight dash - instead of the emdash, and replace the non-breaking space with an ordinary one.

    I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders. If I click on these question marks I get a message saying ' the item can't be found'.

    Not sure where these hard disk folders are located that you are referring to?  Finder, Finder tool bar, Finder side bar, Desktop, Dock? 
    More then likely they are  an alias that not longer point to the orginals,  thus the question mark.
    I would reboot.  Delete icons if an alias and just recreate by dragging from the source. Try right click (control) click to remove.

  • How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name, and no trash can icon appears below most of the pictures the computer just put on my new iPhone 4.

    How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone 4? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name when I press "Edit," and no trash can icon for me to click appears below most of the individual photos in the albums the computer just loaded on my new iPhone 4. When I synced the new phone the computer added these photo albums without permission from me. They are now taking up about 3 GB of memory on my phone. I would like very much to get rid of these photos from the phone. How do I do this?

    To delete photos from your device
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.

  • My iPod says the battery is low, the apple symbol appears and then cycles back to low battery message?

    My older iPod classic says when I dock it either with charger or hooked up to computer that the battery is low, the apple symbol appears, you can hear a whirring sound (hard drive coming on) then a clicking sound and then back to low battery message.  Has been doing this for the last week.

    Hey there Kevin,
    It sounds like your iPod Classic is exhibiting some unexpected behaviour when you have it connected to your computer with the usb cable. I suggest the troubleshooting steps in the following article to help troubleshoot the device:
    iPod classic Troubleshooting Assistant
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    Start by resetting the iPod, then retesting the issue.
    Reset
    To reset your iPod:
    1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    2. Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
    Tip:
    If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
    If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • When I mouse over an active tab, a circular "block" symbol appears and prevents me from either clicking on or closing the tab

    When I am in FireFox, and I mouse over any area that would normally allow me to do something, like select a tab, close a tab, or even fill text into this details box, a circular "block" symbol appears and prevents me from entering or doing anything. I have scanned all of the installed programs in the Control Panel and removed anything suspicious and reviewed addons and the like in FireFox, all to no avail. BTW, this problem does NOT occur while in Google Chrome, but I much prefer FireFox. Help!!!

    Note that your System Details List shows multiple Flash plugins.
    # Shockwave Flash 11.9 r900
    # Shockwave Flash 11.8 r800
    You can find the installation path of all plugins on the <b>about:plugins</b> page.
    You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove all (older) version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32) and (re)install the latest Flash player.

  • I have connected an AirPlay enabled device to iphone4s. I started palying songs. I was able to access internet through 3G from iphone.After few seconds 3G symbol disappears and WiFi symbol appears. After that I'm not able to access internet. Why is it so?

    SMS. Deggie, had them check that.  After a lengthy discussion with Senior Tech advisor, it appears it is iMessage/Face Time server (they are the same) issue, which will strong arm those into purchasing Data if they use iMessage over multiple devices, as the server registers the phone number associated with apple ID.  Not impressed. I put what I've learned here in a simliar thread
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17416082#17416082
    and this is what I've put in apple.com/feedback
    "iMessage requires internet.  SMS does not.  iMessage/FaceTime auto logs phone numbers to the iMessage/Facetime  server (it's the same server as I've come to learn), this means that when iMessage/Face Time is turned on anyone sending a message through the server to me will only be sent as an iMessage- not when I'm not connected to internet, meaning I will not receive the message as an SMS by default, when I have another device using iMessage (such as MacBook) logged in.
    This feature is a problem for me, bottom line, in that iMessage strong arms the consumer (me) into having to buy a data plan that they either do not want, or do not need."
