Can't run flash player in full screen on 2nd monitor

Hi all! I have a laptop with dual video displays. The main
display is the laptop's LCD and the 2nd display is a 19" LCD
connected via VGA cable. I want to let a Flash movie loop endlessly
on the second monitor while I continue to work on the laptop. When
I drag Flash Player 8 over to the 2nd monitor and start the movie,
I can hit maxmize and it will take up the entire 2nd montior as it
should...with the file options and boarder around as expected. I
then hit Ctrl-F to go full screen and it snaps directly to the
laptop's primary monitor. I tried it at work where my desktop has 2
displays and the same thing happens. I need to force Flash player
to run full screen on the 2nd monitor and cannot find a way to
accomplish this. Any help is appreciated because it's driving me
nuts. I can always make the external monitor my primary but then
the start button and all my icons move there too and that is not
acceptable. Thanx!

Seriously? No one has any thoughts about this? I can't
believe I would be the first to come across this issue.

Make Flash player window full screen automatically, when it's opening

Hi, all.
It's today I joined Adobe forums so, I don't know much about community guidlines and functionality here. So, pardon me if I do any mistake or something.
This is my problem...
I'm creating an interface with Adobe Flash Catalyst and I want it to be written to a CD and distributed to clients.
When I publish swf, I cannot find an option to make flash player full screen.
I want my SWF file to be opened in full screen mode when the user opens it.
To the best of my knowledge, I think, I cannot do it with Catalyst as it doesn't have coding facilities.
I hope Flash Builder is helpful with kind of times. But I know nothing about FB. Do you know how to do it with Flash Builder ?
( I mean, open my Catalyst project in Builder, then make the edits or something to make Flash player full Screen when opening )
Thanks a lot,
Tharindu.

TextI have the same problem my flash player which is 9

sucks.Can someone help us???

I have problem with Flash Player. Full screen doesn't work correctly. Turning off hardware acelleration helps but I want this option to work.

Problem exist only on YouTube. When i want get full screen, I have black screen with audio. If I click few times full screen button it helps, but I want to go to full screen by one click.
If i turn off hardware acceleration everything is ok but vids looks terrible.
I have this problem with Flash Player 10. No 9 works good, but some websites wants no. 10

Generaly FP works, but problem is that i must press few times full screen button. Now i have turn off hardware accelleration, but movies are quite bad.
I have already installed newest graphic drivers but it didn't help.
Everything was good unless Flash Player and Mozilla notificated that update is necessary :<

How to keep Flash in Full Screen on Dual Monitors

Hi,
I have a simple question. What should I do, to make my application (written in Flex SDK 4.5.1) staying in Full screen when I work in 2nd monitor - like Youtube and Euronews player (http://www.euronews.com/news/streaming-live/) ?
I don't know, how should I embed my application correct or add something to source code to make it work? My application is working correct in Full screen mode, I can use keyboard etc. but I'm not able to make this working - it's always going back to normal when it loose focus.
I have read many topics on this forum and internet, so I'm not interested in solutions like: http://flash-full-screen-multiple-monitor.clangen.com/en/ or .dll tricks like http://lifehacker.com/5419028/keep-flash-videos-in-full-screen-on-dual-monitors
If Youtube and Euronews is working with normal Flash (my current 11.9.900.117) there must be a way?
If someone can type code examples (like for a total dummy ), it will be great.
Thank you.

You'd want to ask in the Flex forum or Flash Professional forum, since you CANNOT edit ANY Flash content with Flash Player.

I keep getting a message to update my flash player, then a screen showing flash player pro appears, I don't have this on my iPad that I'm aware of. I cannot view videos etc (new to ipad) can anyone assist please.

On Clicking Entrance hyberlink, wanting Flash to open Full Screen

Hi,
Hopefully, someone can offer their expertise-
If you go to my website "entrance" page, you will notice the
"flash" side of my site as "Studio Entrance".
In the html code, I would like to have the visitor to the
site, click on "Studio Entrance" and then the flash site open FULL
SCREEN.
Because the images are 900x600, I need as much screen real
estate as possible. I notice that even though some computers are
1024x768, sometimes they have to "scroll" to the bottom of the
flash site to see the links.
PLEASE HELP!
If you view the page source on the index page, you will of
course, see the coding.
I attempted to insert your suggestions to another user but no
luck.
My email address is: [email protected]
I sincerely appreciate your help.

The flash swf has
'width="1000" height="700"
You could set it to width 100%
Has its merits and demerits. Test it on different resolutions
and see if it
works for you
The flash swf file has a height of 700px. Most users will end
up having to
scroll. Same for the page with the pic.
You could put the navigation links both at the top and
bottom. Regardless
with a height of 700px, viewers with 800x600 px resolution or
even 1024x768
will not see the entire flash content. Should try and not
exceed height of
450 px or 500px. Would also reduce the size of the file
You cannot lose until you give up !!!

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

Is anyone else having problems running Flash Player on Mountain Lion?

After installing Flash Player on my MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion, my computer started crashing when I put it to sleep. When I uninstalled Flash, I no longer had the problem. Is anyone else having problems like this with Flash Player? Is this an issue with Mountain Lion or Adobe? Is there a fix for it, or am I just out of luck with the prospect of running Flash Player on my new Mac?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Adobe Flash Player pop-up screens are blocking correct operation of IE

As soon as I start up Internet Explorer, Flash Player pop-up screens start appearing. After selecting the No-button it disappears and re-appears again and so on. Finally a request for an installation permit screen pops-up and IE is switched off and restarting again. Is there something I can do?

Sorry Pat,
I first tried another option, removing and re-installing Flash Player, and
that solved my problem so far. I am not able to send you screen views as
they don't appear any more this moment.
Thanks for your effort

Is there a way to run flash player on iPAd?

I am rather unhappy that I cannot run FlashPlayer on my iPad. I can't run most of my weather sites without it. As a boat captain I rely on weather sites for safety among other things and when I travel it becomes even more important. I find it ridiculous that apple won't run Flash and Java. If I can't run these I will go back to my laptop.

What you rather unfriendly and DEFINITELY unhelpful people fail to realize is 1) I am still, regrettably, using my laptop BECAUSE the iPad cannot run Flash Player. 2) As a PROFESSIONAL, whose livelihood and safety depend largely on weather and the ability to forecast CORRECTLY, not just with a pretty forecaster or cute comments, I SUBSCRIBE to PAY weather services which are much more accurate and detailed than the Weather Channel and Accuweather which try for mass appeal. SO STOP TELLING MY WHAT SIGHTS I SHOULD USE? After 30 years (20 with Internet) I chose my sites because of their quality. 3) I ASKED A SIMPLE QUESTION. With the exception of one or two answers, all the rest of you chose to attack me and criticize me for not wanting to use HTML5 or whatever garbage Apple chooses t shove in my face.
I could give a rat's &$@ what you think of me. I wanted to know if Apple could work for me and now I know it cannot. For now I will continue to lug my heavy laptop around and I will dedicate more time to researching a
Ight alternative. You APPLE JUNKIES are ridiculous. If somebody is unhappy with anything Apple, it is never Apple's fault. OK you run out and buy whatever you are TOLD. I for one choose to buy what works for me. I bout the iPad because everyone raved about how great it was - well, I found out that wasn't true.. in the few months I have owned it I have encountered MANY people unhappy with it for various reasons. YES IT WAS MY FAULT I PURCHASED IT WITHOUT SUFFICIENT RESEARCH--- I WON'T MAKE THAT MISTAKE AGAIN.
All you know-it-alls, can have your junk. I am happy with myself and when I make a mistake I recognize it and change it. I am doing that. I have no use for any of you. you are no help to anyone. Fortunately, I can go back to wonderful life out on the ocean, being paid for what most of you can only dream about doing even once. you on the other hand can go back to your litle cubiclels taking whatever corporate America shoves down your throat and believing it is best for you.
LASTLY, how is it that anyone who has a complaint is a troll? Do you all work for Apple? Or ar you just THAT BRAINWASHED? how lame a life you must have.

I need to know how to run Flash Player in a Vista 32-bit browser running on a 64-bit O.S.

Help please ! I have been reading for days, trying everything to find the answer to my dilemma, which BTW is making it impossible to use our new computer now. Every other minute it seems I get the message that I need to run Flash Player in a VISTA 32-bit browser which is actually running on a 64-bit operating system. Do I have to uninstall a program (what and where is it) and then instal something else (from where etc.)?
Give me back our XP! I get the idea that Adobe keeps SAYING they are developing a platform for Adobe Flash to run on a 64-bit, but I fear that is only a stall. Who is responsible for helping neophytes? No matter how many times I have tried to contact Adobe, it is a joke. One time, even though I do not have a subscription for service, the poor man took pity on me. But his Indian accent was so severe I have ZERO idea what he was saying. Can one of you wonderful, erudite, helpful people out there give me the solution in computer language 101?? I will be forever grateful. I wish our computer "guru" had been smart enough to give us the pros and cons when he suggested Vista and 64..... When I am asked for a serial number even I have no earthly idea how to get that either. I feel completely HELPLESS and SLEEPLESS in Tucson. Thanks SOOOO much to whomever can get me going in the right direction. (Forgive my LONG message. I had to vent. I feel better.) CLOWG

Hi Clowg,
Sorry to hear that you are having trouble. Unfortunately, I don't believe the folks here on this forum will be able to help you with your issue. Have you tried posting on the Flash Player forum?
