Can't open flash widgets on all Apple

On my Macbook Air, I can open websites with flash widgets. But on all other MacBook people I know, they are not able to open the same flash widgets even though they seem to have all the same flash setting as I do. Any suggestions?

I found the solution. After searching the web for what seemed
like an eternity, I found the following on a Google Groups page:

1 - How can I make my PC play a flash file on my local hard
drive?
Unless you buy Macromedia Flash (the authoring environment)
you can't play them just straight off, you have to open them with a
browser which has the Flash Player plugin installed. To do this,
either right-click on the .swf and select open with... (internet
explorer) or open IE and then go to file... open.... etc.
Then I realized that I started having the problem about the
time I got my new laptop. I didn't install Flash MX on my new
laptop because I don't really use it anymore, I use Swish, so I
didn't install it because I hate installing programs I don't use.
Anyways, I installed Flash MX on my new laptop and walla, I can
open .swf files on my machine again.
I didn't realize I had to have Flash installed (the program,
not the player) in order to be able to open .swf files on my
machine as opposed to viewing them in a browser. Guess I know now!
I thought I'd post what I found in case anyone else had the
same problem and didn't realize it.
Thanks!

Can you tell us about one or more of the video files - what are they? QuickTime? MP4? Something else? How did you create the video files in the first place?
I do a lot of video and when I upgraded to Snow Leopard I discovered that many of the QT videos that I had created previously (via iMovie & Final Cut) would not play correctly in QuickTime X - the bizarre behavior was that QT X acted as if my video files were only audio files! I reported this to Apple at the time but never heard anything back, and there hasn't been any change in later updates to QT X.
The solution was to (re)install QuickTime 7. But first look in your Applications > Utilities folder. When you upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard, the installer normally moves the old QT 7 program to your Utilities folder. If it's there, try using QT 7 to play one of your video files. If QT 7 is not there, you can download and install it from here Make sure you are running at least OS X 10.6.3 before you install QT 7. It's even better if you make sure you are running 10.6.8 which was the last release of Snow Leopard.

I can't open Flash, Illustrator or Dreamweaver CS6

Hi everyone !
I have a very big problem :
I can't open Flash, Illustrator or Dreamweaver CS6.
For the two last, I think downloading the latest version (CC) would solve the problem.
But I need to keep Flash CS6 to open my client AS2 files.
It stopped working for nothing (no updates or anything new).
When I try to launch : Dreamweaver and flash icons move and then stop. And Illustrator icon won't even move. And I don't get any launch screen or anything.
I tried to download again the softwares, to restore the preferences...
I'm on Mac OSX 10.9.1.
Thanks for your help !

Hi everybody !
I uninstalled everything, cleaned preferences, everywhere I could find them, cleaned my computer, repaired permission, etc...
And then re installed the adobe softwares I need...
And still, I can't turn on flash or dreamweaver CS6 AND CC.
Fortunately, I have my old notebook that I can run everything on to make what I need for my clients but it's an old one and it's really slow
The last solution I can think of is to re-install all my computer.
I really don't understand
I'll do that this weekend, I think... it should work... hopefully...
Regards,
Nastasia

Ok so I have OS X Lion now and this is what I get: "You can't open the application Lexmark All In One Center because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

Proceed with what? You CAN'T merge them.
This is from that link:
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

Can't Open ITunes Program at All

Two days ago, the program was fine. Today, I can't open at all, not even to sync. Running OS Vista. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

Well I had my father strip all Apple products from the PC using the utility and install the standalone Quicktime.
At that point we tried to simply open Quicktime to see if we would get ANY error.
Oh we got one. We got the mother of all errors: The Dreaded Buffer Overrun.
For anyone following this thread...this seems to be the heart and soul of all iTunes not opening problems. This is something that has been going on since this past spring; but is now a huge problem with all the headaches going on this Christmas morning/afternoon.
A lot of iPods/iPhones will be getting returned if Apple doesn't do something quickly.
Repeat...this is not a new issue. And at present, it is an issue that has not been addressed. I've told my dad to return the iPhone & I certainly will not be buying one till Apple does something. I've never seen the buffer overrun on my PC, but the fact that has existed this long is irresponsible.

Can't Install Flash Player At All, nothing works.

Can't install Flash Player on my Mac/OSX10.8.5 successfully, nothing works, including all the troubleshooting steps and a suggestion of installing the Secrets preferences and Mach_Kernal. There now is no Flash Player on my computer whatsoever. What Next??

Have you done a "clean install"?: How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
Or a COCOA install?:
Download the FULL Offline installer: Flash Player 12.0.0.77 Plug-in (Mac OS X)
Save it and Quit Safari (Cmd+Q)
Double click the DMG
and "mount it" on your desktop.
A window will open showing the Installer - DO NOT RUN IT!
Right click (Ctrl+click or two(2) finger tap on a trackpad) and "Show Package Contents".
In Contents/Resources, double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg
Follow the steps to run the COCOA installer.
Then eject the DMG by right clicking

Can't open flash

i can't view flash content with my safari.
i followed the window that says get flash player, i've checked my java script and tried safari help, but it still doesn't work.
it's all fine on my internet explorer though.
i'd be glad if you could help.

Make sure your third-party adblockers are disabled, such as PithHelmet. I had the same problem until I turned the blocker off. If Flash works on Firefox but not on Safari, that may be the problem.

Can't open Flash files on Windows XP

I have Flash Player 9 installed. I can view Flash files
online in my browsers (IE and Firefox), but when I try to open a
Flash file on my computer to just play it in Flash Player, it asks
me what I want to use to open the file. I have searched the support
documents and looked online everywhere, but can't seem to find the
problem. Basically, I can't find the actual Flash Player program
file on my machine. I know it's there, otherwise I wouldn't be able
to view Flash files in the browser, but I can't view them on my
local machine.
I have tried setting the program associated with .swf files
in folder options to the following, but none of them work. When
associating .swf files with any of these, it says an update for
Flash is available. I go through the update, reboot because it says
it's required, but when I start back up, it just does the same
thing. I cannot open Flash files (.swf) on my computer, only in the
browser and none of the paths I have tried setting .swf files to
open with are actually the Flash Player application. I need to know
where the Flash Player is on Windows XP.
HELP?!?!?!
The paths I've tried are:
C\WINDOWS\stsyem32\Macromed\Flash\Flash9b.ocx
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil9b.exe
C:\i386\Flash.ocx
C:\Program Files\Mozilla
Firefox\plugins\NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe
None of them will open Flash files on my local computer. I
have searched my machine, and those are the only paths I can find
that have anything to do with the Flash Player. Even though it's an
Adobe product now instead of a Macromedia product, I can't find
anything for Flash in any Adobe directories, just Macromedia
directories.
Does anyone know how to remedy this? Has anyone else had this
same problem? Any help would be
GREATLY
appreciated!!! It seems like I started having this association
problem as soon as Flash was switched from Macromedia to Adobe.
Thanks!

Do you see the context menu of the Flash player if you right-click in this part of the screen?

Can't install Flash Player 12 on Apple Macbook Pro w/ 2.6 GHz Intel i5 proc. Adobe needs to fix it

Can't install Flash Player 12 via Safari on my Apple Macbook Pro 13" w/ 2.6 GHz Intel i5 processor. Error message says "User does not have sufficient privileges." I've worked w/ Apple Tech Support, tried various fixes, no change-it's not a setting on the Macbook. I've emailed Adobe requesting a fix. Any suggestions?

Adobe can't fix user permissions on your MacBook... and "User does not have sufficient privileges" comes from your OS, on your MacBook, NOT the installer.
Have you tried a "Clean Install"? (offline - NOT using Safari) How to perform a "clean install" of Flash Player in Mac OS X
or a COCOA install:
Right click the installer and choose "Show Package Contents"
Go to: Contents/Resources and double click the Adobe Flash Player.pkg file

Can't open Numbers document at all

Recently came to the "other side" and using latest mac book air and as far as I can see I don't have to update anything further. But I'm getting the same message here....see below. This is the same document that I created with the same version of numbers and now I can't open it. Weird thing is it still opens other Excel spreadsheets.

Hi Ben,
Just a thought. Is this something to do with the document name (all those dots ".") ?
Right click (or control click) on the document in Finder and choose Get Info. What does that show under Open with?
Regards,
Ian.

Can't open flash/fla files (with CS4) - might be version issue

Hi,
I am trying to edit a website for a friend (built with Flash and XML) and i can't seem to get into any of the .Fla files.
I don't know if it is my version of Flash (CS4) or the files and not sure how i could test it. Could also just be a CS5 file hence i can't open it.
Any help or suggestions would be great. Please help i don't know what to do, haha.
Here is an upload of one of the files i am talking about
http://www.2shared.com/file/kb2NKm0i/book-verification.html
I wasn't sure which hosts were allowed so if i messed up please let me know.
Thanks
Asher

Hi Asher,
You cannot open a file which is saved in future version such as CS5 version in Flash CS4 .This is as designed .
If you need to open a CS5 file in CS4 , You need to save the file as CS4 file and then open in Flash CS4 .
Thanks
