Cannot find debug player--sometimes

I have Flex2 up and running. Only problem (so far) is in
using the debug.
Sometimes in debug, Flex Builder seems to find the flash
debug player fine. Other times, it cannot find it; giving the
dialog about "where is the debug player located?"
Since the debug does is found and works *sometime*, it must
be there.
Any ideas why the behavior isn't consistent?
Thanks
Keith

in the first debug, are you using AAA override with options 64/65/81?  Could be a bad packet trying to set the VLAN/Interface.
as for WARP Capabilities, it happend right after Scotty(or Jordy if you a TNG fan) fixed the plasma couplers, to allow the proper flow into the warp core.
that message is per-usual, I don't remember what it means, but it should be fine.
HTH,
Steve

  • Javax.media.NoPlayerException: Cannot find a Player

    Hi all,
    I've installed JMF,
    and tried the sample 'SimplePlayerApplet.java' from Sun:
    http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/2.1.1/samples/
    (see the code below)
    However, everytime I run the applet,
    I get the message:
    "javax.media.NoPlayerException: Cannot find a Player"
    Can anybody help?

    First and most obvious question is, what are you trying to have the applet view? The NoPlayerException generally means that JMF couldn't figure out how to display what you're telling it to display, be that an unknown codec, or unknown media type.

  • JWS cannot find main class - sometimes

    I have a swing application which I've deployed onto several pc's using JWS.
    On my PC I can launch the application using the icon which JWS installed and it works properly every time. On the other PC's it will always work the first time it is used after installation, but on subsequent runs it will sometimes works and sometimes fail with an error message suggesting it cannot find the main class.
    The error is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: RichMonV15.Richmon
    What I cannot understand is why it will sometimes work, and other times not.
    This has me completely stumped, can anyone offer any advice?

  • Cannot find flash player 10 after install: xp pro, IE6, SP2

    I have been trying for a week to install Flash Player 10 to no avail. I uninstall and reinstall every time. I have XP Professional Media version, IE6, ans SP2. After install, from which I get no errors and a successful install message, I search for flash player and cannot find it anywhere on my C drive. Any ideas? Is there still a problem with trying to install with IE? Thanks for your help and support.

    Flash Player is a browser plugin, not an installed application. It's not designed to work as a standalone app for opening FLV or SWF.  It's designed to play SWF content inside a web page inside your browser.
    Now, if you must open local content then you can either open those using File: Open in your browser, or you can get the FLash Player 10 Standalone player from the archived players technote here:  kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html

  • Cannot find Flash player download

    I downloaded Flash player 10 active X yesterday on a promt but although it shows in Add or Remove programmes list it does not show size etc and I cannot find it on my computer anywhere else.

    Check http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ - if you see the Flash animation, then it's successfullyinstalled.
    The FP files are located in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\   or  C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\ - note that this is a web player, not a standalone player.

    I also have exactely the same problem and just had the "custom personnel" on the phone for nearly an hour - with no result. The advice was to check out on the forum or to buy an up-grade "of this out dated software"!
    Could you solve your problem in the meantime?

  • I cannot find icloud player on my computer or items submitted purchased from other sources

    I find it easy to access Amazon cloud but I am unable to find items on itunes match sinec I moved files to a separate hard drive when they were filling up my Apple notebook. Do I need to download itunes icloud player again? Please advise what I need to do. I also want to access icloud on my ipod and a Samsung Galaxy phone. Thanks, John Tyrrell - Triel 2976

    I'm afraid I do not quite understand what you are trying to accomplish. There is no "cloud player" application. You access your music in the cloud with iTunes on a computer and through the Music app on iOS devices. Please describe the problem you are having in more detail so we can help you.
    As to accessing "icloud" on mobile devices, iCloud is not the same as iTunes Match. Please tell us what model of iPod you have. At this time only OS X, iOS and Windows (Windows Vista SP2 and up) are supported.

    I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

  • Safari being REALLY slow or sometimes "Cannot find server"! HELP!

    Right, i have the new 'Safari 4' but its being really slow.
    When trying to load up webpages, it sometimes takes AGES to load a page, or sometimes it even comes up with the message 'Safari cannot find the server'.
    I have 'LittleSnitch' installed so I can see when Safari is using the internet to either upload or download information and most of the time, Safari is sat there doing nothing and not downloading any information...
    I have reset Safari to no avail!
    Why might this be happening?

    'Safari cannot find the server'
    Generally refers to a DNS problem.
    (First, if yours is an Intel Mac, check that Safari is not running in Rosetta, which is enough to slow it to a crawl.)
    Adding DNS codes to your Network Settings, should gives good results in terms of speed-up:
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu. Click on TCP/IP and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' enter the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (An explanation of why that is both safe and a good idea can be read here: http://www.labnol.org/internet/tools/opendsn-what-is-opendns-why-required-2/2587 /
    Open DNS also provides an anti-phishing feature: http://www.opendns.com/solutions/homenetwork/anti-phishing/ )
    Whilst in System Preferences/Network you should also turn off 'IPv6' in your preference pane, as otherwise you may not get the full speed benefit (the DNS resolver will default to making SRV queries). If you want to know what IPv6 is:
    This is Apple's guidance on iPv6:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8708.html
    Click on Apply Now and close the window.
    Restart Safari, and repair permissions.

  • Sometimes cannot find wireless networks??

    i've looked around on a couple messege boards, but they didn't seem to be exactly the same problem i was having.
    essentially, after waking up from sleep or hibernate, i sometimes cannot find wireless networks.  the wireless switch will be on, Fn + F5 says my wireless is on, yet nothing can be found.  strangely, when i try to turn off wireless, whether it's through Fn +F5, or the hardware switch, the light below the monitor remains ON.  basically, i can't even turn it off.  when i do click the button to try and turn off wireless, it gives me the busy cursor and eventually the whole menu disappears.
    the way to fix this is by restarting.
    just today, however, i suffered this same problem, even though i wasn't coming back from sleep or hibernate - it just lost connection randomly and then couldn't find any networks.  attempts to turn off wireless failed.
    is there a solution?  is this actually the same problem that was remedied by changing a power setting?
    thanks in advance.

    Yeah I'm having this problem too, with my antique T41 running XP. It used to be rock solid it seemed to change when I installed XP SP3.
    I have tried reinstalling the Intel drivers but that hasn't helped. It seems when it restarts after hibernate (and occasionally at other times, as with the previous poster) it somehow doesn't lock on to the signal or it gets confused in the protocol or something. It doesn't always happen though - about one in three.  Rebooting cures it...until the next time.... 
     any assistance / ideas most welcome, thanks.
    PS I'm using Windows Zero Configuration not Access Connections. That was a change some years ago that made it work better so I'm inclined to stick with that unless someone can tell me why not....
