Can I play a Macromedia Flash web-game off-line?

I frequently play PacMan at the following URL:
http://frombumps2babes.co.uk/forums/arcade.php?&act=Arcade&do=play&gameid=3
I was wondering if there is any way in which I can play when not online? I know the game files are downloaded and then I can play a whole game even if I switch off my network connections. But then, when the game ends (i.e. I've lost all my lives!) I can't start a new one unless I reload the page, which means I must be online again!
I know the file is already downloaded for the first game to start, so how could I use it for a new game?
Many thanks, as always.

BTW, any ideas why I have lost audio on Flash sites. Here's what happened:
I went to
http://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html
which is an animation of the 'Song of the Elements' lyrics (Tom Lehrer, 1960s).
I saw the flash animation and listened to its own audio (the song itself).
I then entered "curl http://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html -o tomsmoviex.swf" in Terminal.app and downloaded the flash file to my Home folder for offline use. I played back the swf file in a Safari window with no problems.
After a while, I could still play back the swf file, without the audio, though. I sent it to my other powerbook, just to check, and sure enough, the audio was there.
So, I'm left wondering: what has suddenly caused my first powerbook to lose its audio when playing back swf files? I've tried Camino, as well, and also I setup a new user account and the problem persists.
Any ideas? Many thanks, people.

  • How can I save a previously published web page off-line instead of deleting

    I have some web pages with photos I do not want to post anymore on my iWeb site. However, I do not want to "delete" the pages because I spent so much time putting them together. Is there a way to save them off-line somewhere for access later on? I am a Scoutmaster and post photo pages of our hikes and adventures. I prefer to save my "masterpiece" pages somewhere for future reference instead of deleting them, which is the only option, to make room for more pages.
    Thank you so much for assisting me.
    p.s. Is there a number limit to the amount of photos I can drag over from iPhoto to an iWeb photo page?

  • What games can I play on my iPad without going on line?

    What games can I play on my iPad without going on line?

    You mean no intenret at all? 
    Or after you've downloaded them, you want to go offline and play them?
    If the first one, then none, there are no pre-installed games on the iPad you can use.
    If the second, there are tons of games there that can be downloaded and then played without an intenret connection atferwards.
    Just search the App Store. Most allow offline playing in some fashion.

    How can I keep email to read later when off line please

    I'm not sure how it works on your iPad, but once the email has been downloaded onto my iPad, I can read them even in Airplane mode with WiFi disabled. I don't see the images that are in the emails, but I can read the messages. I have one POP account and three IMAP accounts and it works for all four accounts.

  • How can I get a Japanese flash web page to display 100% correctly?

    I've tried everything I can think of but I can't get some of this web site's font to display correctly. Some of the flash shows in the correct, Japanese, characters, but some of it shows as code. If I log in as a different user, and set that user's International Language preferences to Japanese, the web page displays correctly. But, when I change users, and go back to the English user, the page displays in a mix of Japanese and messed-up code.
    Here is the page: http://weathernews.jp/livecam/
    If I click onto a different page of that website, http://weathernews.jp/map/
    the writing appears as Japanese in the box, at the bottom of the map.
    But, if you click on that map, and zoom in 3-times, to the city level, the font in the box under the hourly weather and weekly weather appears as code, and not Japanese.
    I'm guessing that it is a problem with the computer booting-up as being English or Japanese, and the browser, then not being able to detect which version of flash to run, the Japanese or English version, cannot display the font correctly.
    Why does it happen only on some pages and not all of the pages on that site?
    Can it be fixed?
    If so, how?
    Thanks!

    Yeah, I tried Opera and Firefox, but I get the same garbled text. The only thing that makes that page open and display correctly is switching to a different user, and making that user's main language Japanese, in the international settings.
    Of course none of this is all that important, I mean, it's about viewing a weather page, but I am just curious why some of the Flash is read or written so that an English language set user can see some of it displayed correctly, but not all of it, where as a user set to Japanese language settings can get all pages correctly.
    I know it has to do with how the Flash Macromedia sees the main language setting for the computer, but what I don't get, is how come a user using Japanese as the main language can read English and Japanese Flash pages (pages with English commanded Java come up correctly), but using English as the main language only allows me to view Flash pages written using English commands. Can I change my Flash program to read Japanese pages, without changing my computers main language to Japanese? Or am I stuck with a Flash program that must match the main language the user is using?

  • I can't play Pinochle on Yahoo web site

    I recently updated Firefox and I can no longer play pinochle on Yahoo web site.

    Hello Frederick.
    You may be having a problem with your Flash plugin. Still, try a new (temporary) Firefox profile ([http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles managing profiles]) and see if it has the same issue. If it doesn't, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering Flash's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (except Shockwave Flash), to see if it goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
    If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.
    If the new profile has the same problem, it's a problem with Flash and you need to contact Adobe for support, since they are the ones who develop it.

  • Can't play videos on some web sites.

    Since the last update for Safari I been unable to play videos in some web sites.I checked Safari preferences, under extensions and than list is empty, so I don't have anything that needs updating. Also cleaned cookies, resetted safari, emptied cache and sitll, can't play the videos. No software updates are available and i havent removed anything from my computer (flash player or any other player).
    Any idea how to solve this problem? Is it because the new OS Lion, thant Safari changed settings?

  • Seeking teammate to port Flash web game to iPad/iPhone

    I have developed a Flash AS3 game which I like to have ported to iPad and iPhone using the Adobe Air Player and release it in the App Store.
    It's a simple & proven concept, with polished gameplay and an original twist in the visuals. The overall game is simple, porting shouldn't take longer than 2-3 weeks (even though I'm not too familiar with any kinks this rather new Air Player Tech might have on the iOs devices).
    I'm looking for an individual to port this game. You would receive 50% of the App Store sales (we can do Android+Mac App Store later if we like). I take care of adapting gameplay and screen designs to the different devices, and would promote the game.
    Please hit me up if you think you have reasonable experience and this sounds like a fun project to you! [email protected]
    Thanks,
    Robert

    But it does use Flash to play it, the App creator simply packaged/embedded the Adobe Flash Player with his content.
    Apple allows Adobe Flash, and Adobe Flash Content, Apple just makes the developer include the Flash Player inside the App.
    So yes, it is a Flash game, just played inside an app instead of a webpage, but its the same flash player.

  • HT201177 I can't play videos on the web - they just stall - stop and start.

    when I am playing videos on the web, Vimeo for example, they play for about one or two seconds and stall.  Then they play another one or two seconds and so on for the entire video.  I have no means of changing the download size in safari preferences.  I am at a loss what to do.  i know of no-one else with this difficulty and the Microsoft laptop on the same broadband router dos not have this problem.

    Empty the Cache, and you can also try the RE-SET Safari option from the menu-bar.
    Let us know if anything changes.

  • How can I play old Apple System 7 games on a new imac?

    I would like to play some of the old games that I loved thirty years ago when I bought a Mac SE. My kids loved Cairo Shootout, Mille Bourne, Birds, and the old Rogue (still have the floppy!).
    Is there a straightforward way to do that, without violating the Apple license agreement?

    Classic Environment was a Mac feature that would let you run Mac OS applications but was limited to OS X 10.4.11 maximum.

    You can get an older Mac at a reasonable price to run these old games in native Mac OS. Beware that some old
    games will not play on PPC machines and require Macs with 030 or 040 processors.

  • Web start off-line applications

    Is it possible to disable the automatic update feature of web start, and indicate that an application will always run off-line? For users that only have a dial up connection, it's inconvenient for web start to try to connect each time.

    I think I answered my own question; the answer is that presently the answer is no. Web start will always try to get the latest version, like it or not. I also understand that this might change in Java 1.6.
    There is an ongoing debate as to whether creating java executables (exe files) in windows is needed or advisable. Many suggest using java web start; others suggest distributing an executable jar. Both have problems.
    In the case of an executable jar, unless one makes a shortcut and uses an application icon, it is apparent that the program is not a normal windows application. Also, if the application uses javahelp, there is the additional difficulty of getting jhall.jar to the right place.
    Java Web Start has good potential. However, this business of always looking for automatic updates has problems. Many users don't want updates unless they explicitly ask for them. It is possible to run the application offline using the Java Web Start manager. But then its very obvious that this is not a standard windows application. Clicking on the icon that web start creates causes Java web start to announce itself to dial up users who happen not to be connected to the internet at the time of the launch. Again, it becomes obvious that this is not a windows application.
    It's my personal opinion that this is a serious design flaw. Java can make inroads to .net if its applications can run in windows transparently, as any other application. My vote is to correct this flaw in the next version.

  • Extreme Delay when playing/using any Flash media games.

    Well, I've been playing Habbo, a very nice and chatty game, for a long time and all of the sudden.. I've been having EXTREME DELAY and I know what the problem is, but I don't know how to fix it. When I go to task manager there is something called plugin-container.exe that is taking up SOOOO much memory, commit charge, cpu usage.. But, if I end the process, it ends the game and everything that uses Flash Media as well.

    I only have this issue with certian flash websites. I am able to play games on the games sites I have visited fine, and most flash works fine.
    However on Hulu.com, after loading a flash video, I notice that when I scroll down the page to look at comments, the cursor simply disappears. I can find it again when I mouse off the page. It happens consistently on hulu after I have unflashblocked a video. (I use the flashblock addon.)
    Just now I went to hulu and the mouse disappeared and froze for 5 seconds when the page loaded. I had created a Guest Account but apart from this I am not able to replicate the terrible behavior with firefox/flash/hulu, but I have not spent much time using it. I don't know if Flash Block has anything to do with this behavior.

    Hi-
    Referring to this post:
    "The AIC codec is installed by iMovie HD and is just what its name implies. Intermediate (temporary conversion from one file format to another).
    Your G4 will not be able to play the file past a few frames per second because of the large dimensions and high data rate even if you did find the codec. You'll find editing it using QuickTime or iMovie a frustrating experience because of those facts."
    I'm a little confused-- do you mean that the G4 computer is just not strong enough to edit HD files "even if I did find the codec"? I was planning to edit it with Final Cut Pro (have never edited a HD project before), but is my computer not adequate? Let me know if there is any way for me to tackle an HD project with my current laptop-- otherwise I guess I really need to look into a new one.
