Cant open SWF websites

Whenever I try and goto a webpage that ends in a .swf file
extension I get a blank page with nothing in it and down at the
bottom right I get the icon saying the webpage has completed
loading but there where errors on the page. When I look at the
error information it says line 2, character 1, invalid character
and the next error is line1, character1, object expected I have
been getting this error for a very long time and just have ignored
it but I am getting tired of not being able to view a lot of
websites so I am wanting to get this fixed.
I am running windows XP service pack 2 using IE7
I hope someone can help me solve this problem.

Hi, this is the site for the latest smartphones for Flash Player:
http://www.adobe.com/flashplatform/certified_devices/smartphones.html
https://market.android.com/developer?pub=Adobe+Systems
http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplatform/2011/02/update-for-fp-10-2-on-tabs.html   
If Flash Player is available for the Motorola Xoom, it should be on the Android Market site.
From what I've read, there may have been a delay, but not sure.

  • I cant open many website with firefox, there say filter not let open this site, but when i open they with internet explorer not have any problem.

    i cant open many website with firefox, there say filter not let open this site, but when i open they with internet explorer not have any problem.

    Could you post an example of the filter message?
    This article has more information on the filters built in to Firefox: [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/phishing-protection/ Firefox Phishing and Malware Protection].
    It's possible that you also have a Firefox add-on, or external software, that is filtering what you see. However, we don't have enough information to help identify it yet. If you want to review a list of your add-ons, you can find them under: Help > Troubleshooting Information.

    i cant open any websites in firefox(version 25) ,its loading long time ,help plz

    hello, normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions: [[Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox]]

  • HT1810 my system cant open some websites that it used to open before i ran the software update

    I had the OS X v10.8.3 update pop up and i ran the update. Before then, i had access to all the websites but now i ralised some websites cant open e.g my twitter login on this mac doesnt get to log me in, cant open asos website, the most annoying aspect is that i'm actually developing my website via wix.com but evresince i ran the software update, the editor page of the website via wix just never loads. Initially i thought it was my browser,home network, then i went to the office and tried opening the wix editor html5 on the imac, running on OS X v10.7. and it was same experience. I went further to try opening the wix editor html5 on another desktop in the office windows 7 and it opened. only then did i come to a conclusion that it must be the operating system that is the cause of this. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME OUT...

    Mountain Lion introduced Gatekeeper, a security software addition that helps avert issues.
    That may be what you're experiencing.

  • Cant open .swf

    Hi
    I have quicktime pre installed. I want to open a .swf file, so that I can convert it for use in a website. quicktime says it cannot open the file as it is not a movie file!
    I createdthis file myseld. It is a screen capture I made, and I can view it as a movie on my computer.
    Can anyone help me with this problem?
    Many thanks
    Sarah

    Older versions of QuickTime Pro could open a small percentage of .swf (Flash) formats (those published as compatible to version 5).
    QuickTime Player no longer opens any .swf files and will display a black player window. Security concerns.

  • When downloading, why do I get a message saying "Safari cant open file because the file has moved since it was downloaded?"  I just attempted to download the file from a website.  Thanks.

    When downloading from a website, I get a message that says, "Safari cant open th file--- because the file has been moved since you downloaded it.  How do I correct this problem.  It wont let me open attachments from yahoo email either.  Thanks.

    EDIT:
    After posting I see this question has the tag of "windows". I don't know if this applies to the Windows version or not.
    The only time I see this message is if I download something, trash it, AND empty the trash. If I don't empty the trash, it finds it there. It will find it wherever I move it to, unless it is was in the trash and emptied.
    Using Finder, is the downloaded file in your Downloads folder?
    Maybe if you go to Safari/Preferences/General and change the location for downloads to something else then change it back to Downloads it might correct it.

  • Cant get Safari or Firefox to open youtube website anyone else having this problem?

    I can't get safari or firefox to open youtube website, keeps saying server not available and it has been doing it for a month. Anyone having this problem?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    You can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue you can open Firefox in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • Safari 5.1 Cant open websites

    Hello, after updating to Safari 5.1, I cant open any page.. I type the adress and it keeps loading but nothing happens.. Before updating everything worked great, so im sure its this version, i uninstalled it, dowloaded again from apple site 5.1 version, installed it, but nothing changed.. Please help (Im Windows XP user)
    (Sorry for my English)

    @Sh4dOWx and others:
    I’m not sure if this is the source of your problem, but I and others found this fixed the problem of the “WebProcess” pop-up windows.
    Safari 5.1 and “WebProcess”: PROBLEM SOLVED
    The culprit is “Little Snitch”
    I am running OS 10.6.8 (Lion-ready). Yesterday, I installed the Safari updater from 5.0.5 to 5.1 . . . and am experiencing repeated and annoying pop-up windows for "WebProcessing."
    I found the culprit to be the third-party utility "Little Snitch" — which monitors outgoing internet connections. (http://www.obdev.at/products/littlesnitch/index.html).
    I solved the problem by upgrading (FREE) Little Snitch v2.0.x to v2.4 (for Snow Leopard and Lion).
    PROBLEM SOLVED.

  • Can't open *.swf files in pc.

    It dint cross my mind, when i installed win 7 ultimate x86 2 weeks ago and installed adobe cs4 master suite, to check whether i can open swf files or not. I just like always, downloaded ADM, and installed Flash player 10.1. The web videos were all working fine, except on facebook, where the videos and uploader keeps prompting me to get latest flash player EVEN AFTER I INSTALLED 10.1 version thrice. But i dint care abt it since i dont watch videos on facebook anyways.
    The issue is about swf files. Everything regarding to flash, even flash animations, work perfectly well on the internet, whether it be firefox or any other, but today i was designing a photo gallery for my portfolio, and pressed test movie to see if it was looking good. Everything worked in the test movie.
    But when i open, some tutorial included swf's or my own created swf's, the famous error comes which states"WINDOWS CANT OPEN THIS FILE. TO OPEN THIS KIND OF FILE WINDOWS NEED TO KNOW WHAT PROGRAM TO USE TO OPEN IT". When i click "select program from installed programs", i cant find Flash Player anywhere on my pc. Now wtf am i supposed to do if my swf's cant open (not on the internet) but on my pc. Please tell me. don't suggest uninstalling cs4 or flash player and reinstalling, because i already did that countless times. Should i get olders flash player versions?
    Please don't tell me i will have to reinstall windows for i then i will have to reinstall so much.

    guys! Big news, somehow, i just uninstalled flash cs4 and all the flash components along with plugin and activex. Then restarted pc. Then reinstalled flash cs4, then downloaded flash player and installed it. and VOILA! It works now. i can easily open all the swf files now. No more need for the solution. although you can look for solution if in future someone else acquires the problem

  • Can't open a website that supports only Internet Explorer

    hi, i can't open a website that supports only Internet Explorer (high-q.co.il - which i need badly for my bachlor dagree)!! 
    my mac runs OS X 10.9.2 system operation. i cant open this site with: chrome,opre,firefox,safari...
    what should i do?

    Try changing your browser agent using the Developer menu your browser preference can enable.
    If that doesn't work, complain to your college dean that the website violates accessibility laws, and should follow http://www.w3.org worldwide conventions to ensure accessibility.  Do not enter any personal information if you are forced to use Windows to browse the website, as it may be insecure.

  • Cant open Hyperlinks on my computer, how do I fix?

    Cant open Hyperlinks on my computer, how do I fix? OS X version 10.9.5. Terryfrombinghamton

    Hi Terry ..
    Might be a cookies, cache, extensions, or plug-ins issue.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
    Click:   Remove All Website Data
    Then delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that didn't help, from the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Can't open .swf files

    Hi,
    I create virtual tours and have used quicktime up until now. I've recently converted to flash but when I create a .swf file and save it to my desktop it wont open. I have 2 windows open up (both blank white windows) and one seems to be the actual flash file window but the other seems to be something to do with Hewlit- packard?
    Anyway, I cant open the actual files but if I then place that file into a HTML page it works fine.
    Another thing I don't understand is that it saves the file with a blue (macromedia??) flash logo instead of a red Adobe flash logo.....is that right?
    Can anyone help me? I'm using a mac with snow leopard installed. I rang apple who ensured all my software is up to date but he said it's up to Adobe from now on.
    Can anyone help me out here?
    Kind Regards,
    Grant

    Ok....So I needed a standalone Flash player rather than the browser plug in!
    Problem sorted.
