Can't open Adobe Flash for SWF file...keeps opening Install Manager instead.

Hi, I need to open a SWF file made from InDesign (interactive PDF). And when I click on it, Adobe Flash Install Manager keeps popping up with an uninstall manager. I've re-downloaded it three times, re-installed it 3 times. It's just not working. Any suggestions?
I'm on a Macbook Pro if it matters.

To view a local SWF you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

  • How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI format without losing quality?

    How can I save a Flash or .swf file in AVI (or another video) format without losing quality?

    As long as you don't have code in your animation then just hit File->Export->Export Movie, then configure the options.
    Here's an article on exporting sound, images and video. Just skip on down to exporting AVI and it explains the process. The codec is in the Video Compression section. When you click Settings for Video Compression, the codec is in the drop-down at the top. There's various kinds but to get lossless quality AVI you'll have to choose Uncompressed / None for full quality. Again, the file will be huge and you'll need to use another program (like Adobe Media Encoder) or Microsoft Windows Media Encoder, etc, depending on what format you intend to compress it ultimately.

  • How can I download adobe flash for my 2006 imac OS 10.4.11? Lost it recently and repeated attempts manage to download but it then does not work.

    How can I download adobe flash for an imac intel using 10.4.11? This disappeared recently and although I go to adobe and download successfully, when I try to access video on web it says I need to download adobe. Very frustrating. Can anyone help?

    Looking at Adobe's site there is version 10.3 for Intel Macs running OSX 10.4 or 10.5.  There is version 11 for Macs running OSX 10.6 or newer.  Most web sites don't really need the newest FlashPlayer, but if you are trying to view one that really does intensive video then maybe it does require Flash 11.  You aren't very specific as to which exact error message you are seeing.
    If a site does require FlashPlayer 11 then you will have to upgrade your operating system.

  • I can't download Adobe flash player, and it keeps telling me to. Is there anything else to use besides Adobe flash player.

    I can't download Adobe flash player, and it keeps telling me to, especially to watch videos, is there anything else to use besides Adobe flash player?

    You would download Flash from here http://www.adobe.com/go/EN_US-H-GET-FLASH however if your running an old version of Mac OS X say 10.5.8 or earlier then you cannot run the current version of Flash which is 11.3
    Remember you not only have to download Flash but you have to run the installer.
    Some websites that use Flash might tell your computer the site needs a specific minimum version of Flash and as above if your running too old a version of Mac OS X then you will not be able to run a new enough version of Flash.

  • Can i download adobe flash for mac

    Hi uhm can I download adobe  flash pro for mac

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, it's already running the newest OS it can.
    If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
    If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.

  • How can you get adobe flash for iPad

    Adobe flash for iPad

    Adobe Flash is not supported for the IOS platform. One app, iSwifter, allows you to view some flash content, but not all. Also, it is a paid service (An in-app payment is required.) I do not recommend this as an alternative, but it will work, at times. Hope this answers your question.

  • Can we use adobe flash player Dll files in our product directly?

    Dear
    We have a commercial software product, and we use Chromium Embed Framework (CEF)  as our internal browser kernel.
    As we find currently,  the CEF doesn't recognize the PPAPI flash player plugin, which is downloaded from Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions
    So we want to use NPAPI plugin, and take two dlls named
    NPSWF64_16_0_0_257.dll  & NPSWF32_16_0_0_257.dll  into our product directly,  then user doesn't have to download the plugin from the adobe website.
    Can we package these two Dlls into our product directly ?
    Thanks
    Young

    Hi Young,
    Could you email me directly at [email protected]?  I'd like to learn more about your product, users, etc and can talk about licensing and distribution options.
    Thanks,

  • Can they enable adobe flash for ipad in ios 6

    i need adobe flash!!!

    Adobe has discontinued Flash on ALL mobile devices, including Android. There is no Flash that will work on a mobile device (other than a laptop).
    Also, note that this forum is for the latest version of Mac OS X, and is not the right place to ask questions about iPads. There's a separate iPad forum.

  • How can I save a flash or swf file to flv file?

    I've created a flash banner and I need to send it by email as a flv file. Does any one knows how to convert from swf or fla files to flv?
    Thanks

    Only accept FLVs at 40 KB? Yikes... Well, I'll say this, I never work on ads or banners, etc., so I don't have to deal with such stringent file size parameters. But, when it comes to video, you only have one option to reduce the file size: Compress compress compress.
    You have to choose a very low bit rate (aka data rate) for your FLV video file when you compress the MOV file. And, likely, it's going to make it look pretty crumby... You're going to have to set your data rate down tot he absolute lowest setting.
    Data rate is measure in kbps (kilobits per second), such as 700 kbps (a current, typical data rate for video that is suitable for broadband Internet speeds).
    As an aside, I find it pretty odd that they require a video file, versus a simple, small Flash SWF animation (that's more to do with my banner ad / bandwidth limits un-awareness than anythings, though). It makes your job a little harder and adds seemingly unnecessary steps... They really require that ALL banner animations be video, and not Flash SWF animations? Be sure you know 100% what their specs are, AND also ask to see other banner ad examples so you can see proof that other animations have been given tot hem with the same spec. I just can't belive that a video file is going to be < 40KB...
    Get more familiar with using the Adobe Media Encoder. If you're not that confortable using it, just search online for tutorials about it, which will be easy to find.
    See the attached image. I did a 60 frame (30 fps, total runtime of 2 seconds only) SWF animation of a box animated from the upper-left to the lower right, stage size of 300x200 (per your spec). Simple, basic, nothing crazy. From Flash, I exported the MOV file, and brought this into Adobe Media Encoder CS5. Setting the format of the new video to FLV, and setting the data rate to 5 (crazy low setting). The file size came down to ~ 110 KB.
    Good luck!

  • I can't download Adobe Flash Player? It gets to 50%  and fails, saying I must close 'Safari'. Safari is no open, yet it gets stuck repeatedly on this?

    I can't download Adobe Flash Player? It gets to 50%  and fails, saying I must close 'Safari'. Safari is no open, yet it gets stuck repeatedly on this?
    This is my first Mac and I'm not convinced of them.....nah, I just need a shove in the right direction.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Is this a problem with the DOWNLOAD or with the INSTALLATION? You should be able to download with Safari open but you do have to quit Safari in able to install. Try downloading the dmg file, restart with no apps open and then trying to install Flash Player.

  • I can not get Adobe Flash Player to update on my Mac. It keeps telling me to close Safari even though it is closed. I have tried all suggestions on the Adobe site and always get the same results. Thanks for any help

    I can not get Adobe Flash Player to update on my Mac. It keeps telling me to close Safari even though it is closed. I tried every thing on Adobe's site to fix the problem with the same results always. I went to Mac's site as well and was told to go to Adobe for a solution. It worked fine since a new Mac in Feb. ,but it will not update now so no Flash Player ay all. Thanks for any help.
