Building a flash version update screen...

hi,
I am a flash developer and I am working for a project for a wide spread organization..
I made my project compatable with Flash Player 10.0 and I need to make sure that everybody
that runs the site and has a lower version of flash player will be prompt with the "get flash player" button.
I know how to identify the flash player in AS3. Lots of tutorials there.
My question is, can I trust the flash player to notify the user that his version is not up to date or should I build my own notification screen?
If I should make my own notification screen that tells the user that his\her flashplayer is not up to date, how will it react with the flash player notification and what is the url I should address the user to get his\hers update from?
Cheers...
Aviv
p.s. I am dealing with a lot of security issues developing flash based apps for organizations (intranets). is there a good tutorial that deals with those issues?

Judging by Flash's security vulnerability record, any tutorials would probably be worthless even if they exist: http://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-53/product_id-6761/Adobe-Flash-Play er.html

After updating to Flash version 11.6.602.171 - can no longer play any embedded videos..and worse

To begin with, I'm running a clean AMD 64 Bit Windows 7 System. Never any problems with any of my video playing scenarios - until now - with this version 11.6.602.171.
After downloading and installing both versions - both for Firefox (other browsers) and IE, none of my browsers can play videos unless they are at their lowest resolution of 240.
So I used the Adobe Flash Uninstaller and ensured that the last vestages of Flash Player were removed - and reinstalled - all to no avail.
Then I downloaded the archived version of 10.3 to see if a previous version would work. But that wouldn't work either. None of my browsers will play videos now and I'm talking:
IE 10
Firefox 19.01
Avant Browser
Google Chrome
Google Chromium
Commodo Dragon
Commodo Ice Dragon
Opera
Waterfox
Pale Moon
None will play the video.
What you get is the video screen but unless you have a 240 option (lowest resolution), all you get is a green screen. You hear the talking/music, but there is no picture and all the green screen does is flash. Here's a JPG of the screen. If you put your cursor anywhere on the progress meter (arrow) it will show you a small image of what's supposed to be playing (see below), but the screen remains green and flashes while playing.
Now here is where it gets interesting. When I completely uninstall Adobe Flash Player and then go to a You Tube embedded video (on any site), there first appears a screen that tells you that you need a plug-in - but then within seconds (without downloading anything), the movie starts playing normally.
I then checked my Firewall (Zone Alarm) - turned it off temporarily - that wasn't the problem. Then checked my latest version of Avast AntiVirus software and temporarily turned it off - that was not the problem either. The videos still won't work and remain green unless you use the lowest resolution.
So this new version 11.6.602.171 has become a nightmare - but I'm afraid it messed up my system big time and I don't know what to do to alleviate this.
Crying HELP!!!!!!!!!!   Is there something I'm overlooking. I'm now screwed - way to go Adobe for releasing such a faulty software product.

It sounds like we've got a number of *different* problems on this thread. I'll try and respond to a few of them.

Sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.

@mem2013 - The Flash Player update service will not impact Flash Player's performance. This is a separate service that runs for just an instant on your system once an hour (if you have automatic updates enabled.) Changing it from manual to automatic shouldn't make any difference.

Operational Flash Version # Not Updated After Upgrade?

I've just upgraded my 11050's to 5.00 build 69.
When I look at a "show version", the new version is displayed but the operational and locked flash still list build 33. Anyone else run into this or know what could cause this?
Here's the output:
B5-CSS-1# sho ver
Version: ap0500069 (5.00 Build 69)
Flash (Locked): 5.00 Build 33
Flash (Operational): 5.00 Build 33
Type: PRIMARY
Licensed Cmd Set(s): Standard Feature Set

I used these documents when upgrading. I used the manual upgrade method instead of using the script.
1. copied code to the CSS
2. unpacked the image
3. set the primary boot-image
4. rebooted
The response I got from TAC on this is that the operational flash is only updated when going to a new major release, not maintenance releases.
All indications are that I am running the newer version despide the wrong operational version # showing up. Perhaps this is just an issue with this particular code version?, i.e. When the code was compiled, there was a version number parameter somewhere that wasn't updated?

I have Vista, recently switched from Internet Explorer to FireFox 3.6-. Since switching over, it can't download alot of versions/updates like Adobe Flash: It error messages: "INSTALLER WILL CONTINUE AFTER CONFLICTING MOZILLA FIREFFOX IS CLOSED".
Most pics blocked on sites/programs. I can't open some programs that Explorer opens. I would sure appreciate any help!!!

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases. Or roll back to the previous build:
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

I can't download/install Adobe Flash Player update version 11.7.700.169.

I have tried several times to download and install Adobe Flash Player update version 11.7.700.169 without success. My OS is Windows XP with SP3 and my web browser is Internet Explorer. My current Adobe Flash Player version is 11.6.602.180. In the Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player IE window I unchecked the checkbox "Yes, install Chrome as my default browser and Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer - optional" and clicked [UpdateNow]. Then I followed the installation instuctions. When I tried to run the installer I got an Internet Explorer Script Error dialog box.
I then clicked yes on the Scrippt Error dialog box and it closed. The new version did not install. I still have the old version.
What am I doing wrong?

Download and run the offline installer(s) from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header (under the heading Progress bar hangs...).

There is no reason to do that. You can buy a legitimate copy of the product from Adobe.

Adobe Flash Security Update Question Version 9 and 10

How are you? So I was checking out a security website at the Washington Post when I came upon this article http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2009/02/adobeissues_security_updatef.html#comments
In the article it detailed that Adobe issued a security update for its Flash Player. This was on February 26, 2009.
Why were we unaware of this update? So I went to the link to find out what version of Flash did I have on my Macbook Pro, it was this: You have version 9,0,151,0 installed
I was unsure of whether to update to Flash 10, do you recommend updating to Flash 10, what are the pros and cons?
The article had a link if you wanted to keep Flash 9 but get the security update. So I tried to download and install the Flash 9 update. When I got to the install part it said it was unable to install, something of a preinstall failure, I did not write down the error message. Why is it not installing?
Is it because in the last Leopard security update this issue was resolved? Is that also the reason we were notified of this Adobe security update?
What other programs come preinstalled with Leopard or Safari that we need to check the security on our own????
Thanks for your time.

Yes, you should update your FlashPlayer. The latest version includes the security update but doesn't say so.
You should also ensure you have installed Apple's security update 2009-001.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
Note that Adobe requires you to uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, as mentioned here:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=1
using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Notification of Flash player version updates

Looking for an auto-notification means by which we can be prompted of pending Flash Player update releases so we can package the new version for distribution of our users ahead of time.

This is actually pretty easy, and we provide pre-packaged bundles of the ActiveX and NPAPI versions of Flash Player ready for distribution through AD/SCUP/SCPD/etc.
We also provide an Extended Support Release, which is still patched with security fixes and released in parallel with our generally available release, but the intent is to insulate organizations from the risks associated with new feature development, while keeping the up-to-date from a security perspective. For organizations that have strict testing requirements for feature-bearing product updates, this is our way of providing pain relief as browser release cadences and the security landscape have necessitated a much faster cadence for Flash.
First things first, you need to apply for a Flash Player distribution agreement. It's free. The license for the individual download doesn't technically grant you permission to repackage and redistribute the player, plus you don't get access to all of the prepared packages and notices.
We expect some changes on the distribution side of the house to increase the number of applications coming in soon, so if you're redistributing Flash Player inside your organization now and you don't have a current distribution agreement, take a few minutes to fill out a fresh agreement before we get absolutely crushed with new requests and our processing time takes a hit.
Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe
Once you've been approved, which should hopefully be pretty quick, you'll get access to our distribution portal, and I believe you'll get automatic notifications by virtue of being on the distribution list.
You should probably also sign up for the Adobe Security Notification Service, just so you're sure to be notified of critical updates to any of our products that may be on your network:
Adobe - Security Notification Service
Here's the system administrator's guide for Flash Player, which probably has some stuff you'll find useful:
Adobe Flash Player Administration Guide for Flash Player 14 | Adobe Developer Connection
Flash Player releases on a monthly cadence, aligned to Microsoft Patch Tuesday, in addition to occasional out-of-cycle releases, when we need to address critical security issues.
Flash Player also includes an automatic update service, which we highly recommend that you take advantage of, particularly if you're already really busy. If you're updating on an ad-hoc basis, you're leaving your users exposed to threats that we've already mitigated. Given the level of sophistication we're seeing with both organized crime and nation-state sponsored hacking, it doesn't take long to do a binary diff of a new version and reverse-engineer the fixes for use against older versions.
While we work closely with our partners in the security and research communities, and the vast majority of those updates are the results of issues that are discovered and disclosed responsibly, it's important to keep your clients updated, especially when we're issuing out-of-cycle patches when an active exploit has been identified in the field.
Anyway, I think the resources above will keep you informed of anything critical and give you access to all of the tools necessary to distribute Flash Player inside your organization, while minimizing the associated work.
Good luck!

When I try to open a PDF file the reader flashes on the screen then closes

When I try to open a PDF file the reader flashes on the screen then closes. I have to open the reader, then search for the pdf file through the reader. I'm using Adobe Reader 11.0.5 with windows 7 service pack 1 home premium. Is there any way I can just click on a PDF file and the reader automaticaly opens? I purchased the upgrade so I can convert PDF to Word but it didnt make any difference.

Some things to try...
Update Reader to version 11.0.06
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Need to reduce `target-player` to support users with older Flash versions?

Right now we are currently compiling ZeroClipboard using the Flex 4.6 SDK, which has a minimum (and default) "target player" version of 11.1. I am uncertain if this is preventing users with Flash 10.x from utilizing ZeroClipboard but the documentation I found related to this certainly suggests that may be the case:
Use the target-player compiler option to specify the version of Flash Player that you want to target with the application. Features requiring a later version of Flash Player are not compiled into the application.
One reason for setting the target Player version is if you are unsure of Player usage penetration rates and want to choose a Player version that is lower than the most recent one. Another reason is if your users are locked in to a particular Player version, such as when they are on an intranet and cannot upgrade.
If users with older versions of Flash (i.e. 10.x) cannot use ZeroClipboard because of this, I would've expected more bug reports on it by now. However, as Adobe is pretty good about pushing Flash Player updates out, perhaps most users have already upgraded to 11.x.
Can anyone confirm or reject this hypothesis? Obviously our goal would be to support as many realistic user configurations as possible (i.e. support both Flash Player 10.x and 11.x with a single SWF).
Resources:
Targeting Flash Player versions
About the application compiler options
Backward compatibility

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
James Greene

Just to add to this thread the links I posted in the other one:
I can't speak to anecdotes like parents' or friend's computers, but in general Flash Player 10 is extremely widely available -- installed on over 95% of the world's desktops & laptops. There are more people still using IE 6 than there are people lacking FP 10. Even in enterprises, which tend to upgrade very slowly, FP 10 is probably on well over 75% of computers by now.
Catalyst projects truly require Flex 4, which truly requires FP 10... there's not much getting around that. If you absolutely must support FP 9, one option is to use Catalyst purely as a mockup/prototyping tool (for user testing, client/executive approval of designs, etc.) and then build the final app from scratch in Flex 3. You won't be able to directly reuse most of the material you created in Catalyst, but it can still be a valuable tool in this workflow -- we've heard from many people that Catalyst lets them create mockups far more quickly than tools they've used in the past.
Hope that helps!

HELP Adobe flash drive update BUG?? Big Problem

I bought a 13 inch MacBook Air in August 2014.
OS X Maverick, Version 10.9.4. 4 GB memory, 256GB storage.
I have been using Safari to see lecture videos from Echo360, and they have been working well despite the slow internet of the country.
Just until two days ago, everything had been working fine, until a Adobe Flash Driver Update popped up on my screen.
At first I ignored it (b/c I usually dont care about using the latest versions; the lecture videos had been working perfectly)
but it kept popping up so I clicked update.
The next day, my mac kept losing connection to internet every 1-3 minutes, such as "resolving host" messages.
The videos kept crashing and I had to re open the page, refreshing wouldnt work. about 15 times for a 50 minute video.
I erased the Flash Driver.plugin from my internet plug-ins in the library, and the internet came back alive.
I was guessing the "updated" plugins were eating up my internet/browser...
So then I downloaded chrome so I wouldnt have to manually use adobe anymore,
and now, the videos keep freezing at random moments at about 5-10 minute intervals. Now that the internet is back alive, i just have to refresh the page, which still takes forever to load...fortunately the browsers dont crash anymore...
Right then, I completely disposed anything related to adobe flash drive. I still have Adobe pdf which works great.
But even after, it kept freezing...
Maybe I was thinking this is normal when watching videos on chrome b/c the plug ins are not manually stored in my mac?
If not, what is causing the freezing of the videos on google chrome? (i dont think my mac is losing internet connection anymore every second like yesterday)
Is there any way to fix it? Is it from yesterday's history of downloading the "update"?
I just want to be able to watch my lecture videos like I normally did the past two weeks, before I downloaded the "update"
and now I am afraid that downloading adobe might crash my internet/browsers again.
It took me several hours to come to erasing the "updated" plug ins as I am fairly a noob in computers.
I spent a lot of time and researched a lot up till 5AM in the morning just last night.
and I have exams coming up next week... I would really want this to be resolved.
Should I try downloading adobe from its actual website and see what happens?
If yes, which versions would you recommend?
Yesterday when I checked after the update, it stated the most current Adobe 15.
If this contains bugs for mavericks, I would rather do older versions.
I do not know which version I was using before the "update" when everything worked perfectly.
Thanks for reading all this
I know I am all over the place; Im just very frustrated and desperate as not knowing what to do....
I just want my mac to work like before I clicked on the "update"
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thank you

You probably installed some kind of malware pretending to be a Flash update. That's very common.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Build to Flash - won't support video for menu backgrounds?

I spent hours on a project that includes After Effects motion menu components included as a video background with a loop point. What looks great in preview and on DVD apparently falls a part in Flash. Flash doesn't show the video background in the main menu. Also - it sure would be nice if Encore included a "preload" progress bar for progressive downloads.
Anyone an expert with using Encore to build to Flash? Are there any other do's and don't I should know about?

Thanks for your response...
I can wait. After all, it was by waiting for the release of the 10h version after the 10e version sabotaged my flash installation, that I was eventually able to at least get Firefox up and running flash again...
It's just frustrating to think that the folks at Adobe can't come up with a better product testing cycle so they are unleashing these problems on end users systems...
I recognize that there may be some sort of issue with my particular system registry. If so, I wish I knew what it was...but flash releases are the only installations I ever have any difficulty with...All of the other software I run updates without failing....sad to say...
Perhaps I will try running a home edition version of secedit (See here)http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313222 instead of the clean or repair install...I'll let you know what I decide and how it works out...
Anyway, thanks for the input..
