Cannot view SWF content with IE & Flash 9.0.47

We have recently upgraded to the latest version of Flash
9.0.47. When viewing pages that are directly linked to a .SWF file,
the content is never displayed. The IE status bar shows
'Downloading' and then 'Done' but only white space is displayed.
The file will not play when downloaded and opened through IE
manually either.
These files and sites still work with Flash 8, and with Flash
9 on Firefox.
I am able to view content that is embedded and the Adobe
version test (
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/)
shows that it is installed.
Uninstall and reinstalling does not fix the issues nor does
reverting back to an older version of Flash on machines where this
once worked.
I have been through the registry and as far as I can tell
everything looks fine. File associations and MIME settings were in
order.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is a problem
for quite a few computers.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

Like I said in the previous post, if we try to open a naked
swf file in IE it does not play. However, when I enlose it in the
proper tags the content is displayed. Is this the way it's going to
be from now on?
Here is an example I pulled from google that got it to work.
<OBJECT

</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
Here are a couple of other things I have tried.
Registry Permissions are correct, I even gave users full
control to everything (on a test box)
Ran Flash Uninstaller, rebooted, installed package from
adobe's site
Ran Flash Uninstaller, Rebooted, installed package from
filehippo
unregistered & reregistered flash9d.ocx (regsvr32)
Tried both MSI & EXE installers from Adobe's Corporate
download site
Changed IE security settings to lowest possible, everything
was allowed Allowed active content from My Computer (IE advanced
settings)
Tested with different users, some admins some not
Tested with different versions of Windows XP (RTM, SP1, SP2)
None of those steps made any difference, and I have run out
of ideas.

  • Cannot associate media file types .swf .flv with Adobe Flash media player

    I have been trying to associate these media types ( .swf .flv ) with Adobe Flash media player (9.0.124 latest from Adobe site) but cannot see the program in the list (looked under Adobe, Flash, Macromedia, Common etc) after loading. I have repeated the process, rebooted, and no luck.
    Any ideas why a new program should not show in the Programs list ?

    Thanks, I'm curious to find out what's different. I've repair disk permissions again using the one in Disk Utility instead of Cocktail with not luck As far as I can tell, all my issues seem to be occurring solely on www.adultswim.com and is sill happening with Camino, Firefox, Safari, and SWF & FLV Player. I'll keep checking other sites to see if the problem manifests itself elsewhere and I'll post any other changes I make to my system that might appear to help.

  • Viewing web sites with Adobe Flash contents

    How can I view web sites with adobe Flash player plugin for safari on iPad?

    Sorry, you can't.
    Thoughts on Flash
    But a lot of sites are converting to HTML5 and there are other options.
    Examples from Steve's link above, "YouTube, with an estimated 40% of the web’s video, shines in an app bundled on all Apple mobile devices, with the iPad offering perhaps the best YouTube discovery and viewing experience ever. Add to this video from Vimeo, Netflix, Facebook, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, ESPN, NPR, Time, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Sports Illustrated, People, National Geographic, and many, many others."

  • Can't view uPerform content with Flash Plugin 10.1.102.64

    My company uses uPerform a product that we use to create flash based simulations and WBTs. After downloading the most recent version of the flash player, I have not been able to view existing content published on a server. When users accesss Flash content it displays a blank white or black screen. I have seen an article which seems to describe my issue entirely, but it was posted as an Adobe Captivate issue. There is a workaround for the product, but it directed towards users have problems with Captivate.
    Here is a link to one of our published simulations:
    https://rwdp.ebsp.msu.edu/ucontent/e2f402a4126b4d8e9c10210472f564ec_en-US/sim/flash//index .htm#
    Similar known Captivate issue:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2010/11/cp5-content-with-text-animations-not-working-with -latest-flash-player-version.html
    The problem seems to be present in IE 7, IE 8, and Firefox. I attempted to follow uninstall directions and was directed to most recent version of the plugin. This issue is effecting thousands of our users.

    You can find information on this issue at the ANCILE Product Support Center -- products.ancile.com. We recently posted a few blog articles on this issue and options to address.

  • Cannot view SWF ebook in full pages

    After I export my ebook to a swf file and then view the html file of it, I can only see one page at a time. Originally I had two pages side by side and able to use page turns and everything worked. I had a few changes to be made and now after the changes I cannot view it in a 2page spread. I checked the document setup, thinking it had to do with facing pages, but that wasn't the issue. Any other thoughts why this is happening?
    I also tried creating a new ebook and the same thing happened... Is there a setting I have that needs to be changed?
    Thanks in advanced!
    ( i am using indesign 5.5 on a mac)
    here are my exporting and document settings: (let me know if you need any other info)

    Probably your swf file does not link to the xml file in the repository.  To check the link to the xml file - look at the properties on the xml file.  Try putting the access link for the xml file in your swf.

  • Cannot view desktop contents and finder shuts down

    Iam using macbook pro mid 2012 with OS mavericks. Everything was running completely okay until yesterday but when i switched on today the finder kept shutting down after 15 seconds..i cannot view my documents or pictures on the desktop..the applications icon disappear from the dock when i open it and cannot see anything in my downloads folder either..i didnt not downnload any app recently and cant seem to figure out the problem.i tried attaching a screenshot but the browser crashed..i saw some posts where they were relating this problem with google drive but i dont use it..any help would really be appreciated because i have a presentation coming up next week and really need to get done with this problem

    You can work around this issue by choosing Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and then entering a / followed by the name of the folder you want to access.
    If you need to access the top level of the hard disk from the other accounts or want to fix the issue, try logging in with the original account. Open the Script Editor in the /Applications/AppleScript folder and run the following script:
    do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder.AppleShowAllFiles '1'"
    tell application "Finder"
    quit
    end tell
    delay 3
    tell application "Finder"
    run
    end tell
    After the Finder restarts, open your hard disk's icon and locate the file named .DS_Store. Rename this file and try logging in with one of the other accounts. To hide the additional files and folders revealed, replace the 1 in the first line of the script with a 0 and rerun the script.

  • I cannot view pdf files with free download from Adobe. Simple

    I cannot view pdf documents, since recent download of Adobe Reader. Click pdf doc, Adobe opens, but bleeps if I click anywhere on the screen, then closes.
    Recently I tried to look at my Amex Statement online, but Adobe wouldn't show the file.
    I downloaded the Statement, but every attempt to view, is futile!!!!!!
    Today, I downloaded, Assistant and signed in. Also Adobe Air. But still the Statement cannot be viewed.
    If this is a free download, why change the setup so the damn thing doesn't work, when downloaded. I don't want to view the "World", just 1 document. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. (Words of some intellect, I would say) (Please take note)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Use the Adobe Cleaner to completely uninstall Reader. http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, download the full offline installer here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and run it to reinstall a good working copy of Reader.

  • Cannot view the content of XML document.

    Hi experts,
    i have saved edit form (SAP Demo News) in document folder (KM Content > document). To view the content, I click the XML document then the content is display as design in ShowForm.
    My problem is i save the edit form (SAP Demo News) in my own folder (KM Content > MyFolder), then when I click the XML document the content is NOT display as design in ShowForm. But its display as XML coding.
    How to make the content of XML document NOT view as XML coding?
    Thanks and regards
    faeza

    Hi faeza ,
    by default XML Forms can only be used in the repositories documents and userhome.
    If you want to use XML-Forms in your own repository like "MyFolder" than the behaviour is like you have described.
    So you have to adjust the KM settings for using XML-Forms as well in the repository "MyFolder".
    Goto
    System Administration ->
    System Configuration ->
    Knowledge Management ->
    Content Management ->
    Configuration
    -> Content Management
    ->  Repository Filters
    -> XML Forms Repository Filter
    Choose the XML Forms Repository Filter entry "xmlforms_filter" and choose Edit.
    Add as "Repositories:" your repository "MyFolder".
    Save it and restart the whole portal.
    Best regards

  • Cannot view PDF forms (with Signature) in Workspace Error : "SigDict/Contents illegal data"

    Hello,
    With Jasmin's help, I am able to import a PDF form which is digitally signed >> view it in Workspace >> click Approve/Decline for archiving. Thanks Jasmin !
    When I view the form in workspace, I get a "Atleast one signature is invalid" prompt on the top left corner of the window. Upon clicking the "Signature Panel", it says "The Signature is invalid" with a description of "SigDict/Contents illegal data"
    Once the process is complete, I am unable to open the same form. I get an error message in Adobe Reader (within workspace).
    "Adobe Reader could not open '_7358722841708390983-102[1]' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ( for example, it was sent as an email attachments and wasn't correctly decoded)"
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Aditya

    For everyone's reference.
    I figured out the "Signature is Invalid" message.
    This was my fault as I used a Form Augmenter (insert form bridge) to a signed form which broke the PDF.
    After removing that module, I no longer got that message. However, once I approve the form I could no loner view it and I would still get an error.
    "Adobe Reader could not open '_7358722841708390983-102[1]' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ( for example, it was sent as an email attachments and wasn't correctly decoded)"
    Anyone know why ?

  • Cannot view embedded video with FP 11.8.800.175 on WIN 7 Laptop with IE 10.0.9 - hear audio

    I am running a laptop with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer version 10.0.9.  I have loaded and reloaded Flash Player 11.8.800.175.  I want to be able to see embedded videos on websites like Bloomberg TV - all I get is the audio, screenshot below
    Videos seem to work fine in YouTube.
    I have tried the various fixes I have found on this site:
    - deleting flashplayer & macromedia folder as directed,
    - using regedit and finding the MIME folder and associated shockwave-flash key (I have tried changing permissioons as well as deleting the key) (found this in a thread but can't find it again)
    - Checked the activex settings
    - Checked the Manage Add-ons section in settings and all ok there.
    But still do not see the video content - please help before I go crazy.

    I've had this exact same issue (can hear, but not see MOST embedded web videos).  I can see and hear videos on YouTube, but on a site like Vimeo, I can hear the videos but cannot see them.  I have Windows 7, and the latest versions of IE and Chrome.  I get the same exact problem in both, so it doesn't seem to be a browser issue.  Is there any new input here?  Did you ever get the problem resolved or still looking for help?

  • Editing a swf file with Adobe Flash cc or Dreamweaver

    Hi,
    I have a .swf file which is embedded in to a html file, I need to make changes in the swf section of the file which Dreamweaver can not help me with it.
    I tried to click on the swf file and take it to Flash cc, but still I can not edit and make changes.
    If I dont have the fla files, I can not edit the .swf file at all?
    I have all the applications of the creative cloud but couldnt find any of them helpful in this matter.
    Is there any help?
    Thanks,

    I have no experience with any decompilers beyond possibly attempting to trial one once.  The only one I have seen recommended is made by Sothink.
    Here is a link to a page with a tool that has an interface you can use to determine various properties of an swf file, including the Actionscript version.
