Control a swf via RF remote control, ala Powerpoint?

Hi
I am in the middle of a Flash project creating a powerpoint
like
presentation to be shown on a projector screen. Flash 9 or a
projector.exe
I wonder have you ever had to ask Flash/Flex to control the
remote clicker(pointer) buttons using a Front Projection screen ???
I looked on Adobe, Forums and found only this entry,
Topic Title::: How can I control a swf file via RF remote
control, ala Powerpoint?
- but don't seem to be able to get to work.
Is there a new method used in AS3? I really need to get my
hands on a very simple .flv example.
I need to click to the nest stop(); and click back if needed.
onKeypress pagedown
onKeypress pageup
Thankyou

I figured it out. Just make a full-screen invisible button
and place it on a layer on each frame.
For insatnce, Actions - Button for frame 2:
on (keyPress "<PageDown>") {
gotoAndStop (3);
on (keyPress "<PageUp>") {
gotoAndStop (2);
sends the show forward to frame (slide) 3 with a press of the
remote's "Next" button and sends it back to frame (slide) 1 with a
press of the "Back" button.
I have a Stop action on each frame.
This allows me to control a Flash show just like a Powerpoint
show. Cool.

  • Loading a remote SWF via SWFLoader Issue

    I have a simple flex app which loads an external XML into an
    arrayCollection using HTTPService send method. This works fine as
    both a stand-alone, or when loaded into it's parent as a LOCAL file
    via the SWFLoader tag. However, when I place this child file onto a
    remote server and try to load it into the parent which resides on
    my desktop, the ArrayCollection default resultFormat of the send
    method triggers the following runtime error (listed below). I don't
    think it's a sandbox issue because when I change result format to
    e4x, it works fine remotely. I've been hitting a wall on this for
    days now... Any insight would be greatly appreciated and thanks to
    all in advance!!!

    After further investigations, it appears that the problem might be, due the fact that in the remote (loaded) swf, the following is null:
    var sm:ISystemManager = ISystemManager(SystemManagerGlobals.topLevelSystemManagers[0]);
    sm.swfBridgeGroup <----- equals null
    I tried creating the swfBridgeGroup in the local (loading) swf, but the loaded one still thinks it is null.
    Any ideas?

  • I want to control a PowerPoint presentation on my iPad remotely from my iPhone. Is there an app that allows me to wirelessly control my iPad from my iPhone?

    I want to control a PowerPoint presentation on my iPad remotely from my iPhone. Is there an app that allows me to wirelessly control my iPad from my iPhone?

    Yes.
    The app is called Keynote Remote and is available for both iPhone and iPad from the App Store. This app can also run Keynote presentations from your Mac from either your iPad or iPhone.
    Both your iPad and iPhone need to be on the same WiFi Network. With your iPad Keynote file loaded, go to:
    iPad > Keynote > Tool Menu (wrench) > Advanced > Remote and turnon "Enable Remotes"
    on your iPhone set up the link:
    Keynote Remote > Settings > New Keynote Link and follow instructions - you will be given a set of numbers, enter those numbers on the iPad and you are all set.
    Good Luck

  • Distribute Adobe Air Runtime via Apple Remote Desktop

    I've be researching whether or not it's possible to distribute the Adobe Air framework via Apple Remote Desktop, but I haven't found any solutions. The Adobe Air Admin guide has this to say:
    Enterprise deployment
    IT administrators can install Adobe AIR and AIR applications silently using standard desktop deployment tools. IT administrators can deploy the following:
    •Silently install Adobe AIR using tools such as Microsoft SMS, IBM Tivoli, or any deployment tool that allows silent installations that use a bootstrapper
    No mention of Apple Remote Desktop, or any other Apple-related Enterprise deployment methods. Is this possible, or must Mac software vendors bundle the Adobe Air framework with their pkgs (and jump through the necessary licensing hoops) in order for clients to get an Adobe Air app and all it's dependencies (i.e. the Adobe Air framework) distributed to a network of Apple machines.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the interest in AIR.  You are correct that you would have to wrap everything (runtime and application) up in a .pkg for installation via ARD.  Another alternative would be to get the AIR Runtime installer on to the remote system, and then execute it via ssh.

    Please try to run iisreset on the WSUS server, then try to reconnect.
    Also, please try to run the server cleanup wizard to remove the unused update.

  • Can't deploy CS6 Master Collection via Casper Remote

    Recently, and I'm not sure what has changed, I am unable to deploy CS6 Master Collection, which I packaged in AAMEE, via Casper Remote. I am able to successfully deploy CS6 Design and Web Premium. I downloaded a new .dmg of Master Collection from Adobe and re-packaged it in AAMEE. Issue persists.
    I will share a screen shot of the end of the very long log file I get in JSS as well as two log files that I sent to an Adobe rep. Maybe this community has some insight on what may be going on.
    It was working about 3 months ago when I installed it on about 15 lab computers, however, it hasn't worked on the last two computers I've tried. Additionally, I copied the package to the computers and the installer still failed (I understand that this means its likely not an issue with Casper Remote).

    Exactly the same issue !
    Please let me know if you have a solution...

  • Unix security and privacy setting unix command via apple remote desktop

    Could someone guide me on the unix command to set System Preferemces Security & Privacy to xx minutes [see screenshot please] via Apple Remote Desktop.
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/5485939/osx_screenshots/sys%20pref%20security%20privacy .png
    Thank you,

    Pereference tend to be stored for the computer as a whole
    /Library/Preferences/
    or specifcally for the user
    /Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/
    well when I set required password for XX minutes... I see that
    /Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver.plist modfication date & time changes to the current time & date... hMMM maybe the setting we want is stored here? Can we test this?
    If I check require password and then do the terminal command:
    defaults read ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver
    I see
        askForPassword = 1;
        askForPasswordDelay = 0;
        tokenRemovalAction = 0;
    turn it off
    run the terminal command;
    defaults read ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver
    I see:
        askForPassword = 0;
        askForPasswordDelay = 0;
        tokenRemovalAction = 0;
    so I can turn it on with
    defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -bool TRUE
    and I can turn it off with
    defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -bool FALSE
    So if a user is logged into a computer. I could send unix command as current console user.
    defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -bool TRUE
    BUT what if the user is logged out? or there are more then one user on the computer?
    then I could run unix command as user root and send
    defaults write /Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -bool TRUE
    (replace USERNAME with the user's short name.)
    but what if I don't know the user name? or names
    send unix command as root
    ls -al /Users/
    get back a list of folders
    bob
    surely
    shares
    and then do
    send unix command as root
    defaults write /Users/bob/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -bool TRUE
    defaults write /Users/surely/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -bool TRUE
    you could also do some thing like
    defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPasswordDelay -integer 5
    if you want to change the period of time to lock to 5 seconds
    or
    defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.screensaver askForPasswordDelay -integer 900
    (900 seconds  / 60 seconds = 15 minutes)

  • Is it possible to add a PC to a domain via a remote CLI using Powershell?

    If this is going into a domain, which it sounds to be the case, you'll be using a specified base image as per your company policy (image A goes to computer build A group). If you are using SCCM, FOG, etc... A better method would be to put in a task sequence to integrate the machine, at the end of the sequence of course. Don't want GPOs and firewall settings coming up before everything is complete. This would also allow you to automate the process, rather than push it manually.

    I saw an instructional video from "Eli the Computer Guy" about adding Windows 8.1 PC's to a Server 2012 Domain. He did it via the GUI which is what I am very comfortable with, but I would love to be able to do this via a remote command line using Powershell, is this possible? Let's say my Workgroup is ABC and the Domain I'd like to join the PC to is BCORPINC

    not possible to do sync through remote desktop, unless you install DTM on the server and plug the BBinto server and remote to server and tell it to sync... which wou.ld defeat the purpose.
    if you are the only BB user and you have exchange you can install BES pro for free(only free for 1 user) which will send everything wirelessly

  • HT1947 Any way to directly control the apple TV volume via ios remote app?

    It is great that remote app can now control direct streaming options to the apple TV (such as apple match, apple radio, and home sharing) but is there any way for the remote app to control the volume?
    Note that when I indirectly stream music through an external device (such as an iphone/ipad/laptop), I can of course use an apps volume control (such as, say, spotify, or itunes or whatever), and that works. What i'm talking about here is instances where I'm using the remote app to have the apple TV stream directly from, say, apple radio.
    As it stands now, the only way to control the volume in such cases is to control what is receiving the signal from the apple TV (such as an amplifer, or external sound producing device such as powered speakers, etc.).
    To make sure this clear to everyone, if I do:
    internet -> WIFI LAN -> iphone running, say, spotify -> WIFI LAN via airplay -> Apple TV -> Amplifer
    I can control the volume using the spotify app (or even the iphone's volume). This also works if I replace the spotify app with any music app runing
    on the iphone (such as the music app). If, however, I try to do the following:
    internet -> LAN -> Apple TV -> Amplifer
    and where the Apple TV is controled via the latest iphone/ipad remote app so that the Apple TV streams from, say, apple radio directly, there is no way
    to control the volume other than to adjust the amplifer.
    Thanks very much!

    The Apple TV has no volume control. When you are streaming from an app you are then controlling the  volume  on your iphone and transmitting via airplay.

  • Domain users cannot connect to the network folders when logged in via rds remote apps

    Hi,
    recently I setup an RDS farm for remote apps on server 2012 r2.
    all users can connect to the apps published. no problems there.
    but when users connect via rds they cannot connect to the networkfolders and cannot store the resultance of there work (docx and xlsx files)
    all users are normally connected to the networkfolders using a small login batch file handing down the unc path needed. when I log in as domain admin, also using a login batch, connections are setup correctly. It seems to me to be an security issue on the
    rds session host.
    how to alter this?

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    We use WMI to communicate with the RDSH server. Various issues can cause WMI to deny access or return error codes. Here's a few things you can try:
    1.  Check if the "TS Web Access Computers" security group on the RDSH server has incorrect permissions in DCOM and/or WMI:
       For checking DCOM security settings:
       1. Start the Component Services MMC snapin
       2. Navigate to Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer
       3. Right-click on My Computer and select properties
       4. Go to the COM Security tab
       5. Under Access Permissions, click the Edit Limits button
       6. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list, with all of the permissions set to “allow”.
       7. Under Launch and Activation Permissions, click the Edit Limits button
       8. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list, with all of the permissions set to “allow”.
       For checking WMI security settings:
       1. Start the WMI Control MMC snapin
       2. Right-click the WMI Control node and select properties
       3. Go to the Security tab
       4. Navigate to Root->CIMV2->TerminalServices
       5. With TerminalServices selected, click the Security button
       6. Ensure that TS Web Access Computers is in the list with Execute Methods, Enable Account, and Remote Enable set to "allow"
    2.  Verify the RD Session Host server's firewall allows WMI calls.
    3. Verify that the RD Connection Broker hasn't lost its trust relationship with the domain.
    4. See if non-RDS related WMI calls can be successfully made to the RDSH server. This can help differentiate between a general WMI issue and an issue calling the RDS WMI provider.
    (Quoted from following thread.)
