Do you have plan to make flash player to open source?

Adobe abandons flash player for mobile web browser.
We, many flash developers, can make great flash applications for mobile.
We do not satisfy AIR.
If adobe make flash player to open souce, we can use it in our mobile applications.
Open flash player source code!
Flash is best cross platform application environment.
Adobe can't? We can!

Hi daslicht,
im also very interrested to know the answer.
But im afraid they wont because it uses code from other proprietary tools.
And even if the community get flash catalyst source code, it will be useless (in a sens) mainly because the synergy with other Adobe Tools will not be maintained. And for me it was the main power of Flash Catalyst.
And knowing that, i think it is more easy for Apache community to create a new tool from scratch not linked to Adobe's tooling chain.
It could be a Flex app!!
For you information, the design view from Flash Builder has also been discontinued by Adobe. But in that case its a flex app incorporated in Flash Builder so theres good chances that Adobe will donate it to Apache community.
So why not use the design view as a base for a Flash Catalyst like tool? by making it a standalone tool or designers.

  • Did you have video problems with Flash Player 10.2?

    Hello Flash Player community,
    We're getting ready to release Flash Player 10.3 and we'd like to ask for your help and input.  If you encountered video related problems with the current version of Flash Player on sites like YouTube, we're especially interested to learn if the change's we've made to 10.3 help you.  We've tested this internally, and while we've seen a definite improvement, we really want to expand the scope of hardware and have those previously impacted try again.
    Here's all you need to do:
    1. Install the latest video drivers for your system (see step 3 on this page for video driver links and instructions.)  This is important, as older drivers contain limitations and bugs that can impact hardware acceleration in Flash Player.  Flash Player works with all video cards, but it's possible hardware acceleration might not be fully supported on older hardware.
    2. Download and install the browser appropriate Flash Player 10.3 from labs.adobe.com.  If you encounter problems installing, please let us know.  When upgrade issues occur, it's recommended you run the Flash Player uninstaller (Win, Mac), then try installing again.  
    3. Verify that the Flash setting "Enable hardware acceleration" is checked. 
    For instructions on finding this setting, please see step 1 of our Troubleshoot video playback issues article.   Ignore the instructions to uncheck this setting, we want hardware acceleration to be enabled (make sure “Enable hardware acceleration” is selected/checked.”)  If video still fails, please disable hardware acceleration and try again.
    4. Navigate to the following two video samples and verify that both video and audio play correctly:
    http://www.youtube.com/embed/tgbNymZ7vqY?wmode=direct
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/live-player/
    Note: The second link is a large 1080p HD video, so don't worry about any buffering/bandwidth issues with this video: what we're looking for here are display issues (black screen, corrupted video, etc.)
    That's it!  We'd love to hear your success stories, especially if you were one of the ones that ran into problems when 10.2 was initially released!  However, we're equally interested in hearing if things don't work correctly.  Please let us know on this thread or send email to [email protected].  Please include a brief description of the problem and your hardware diagnostic file.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Can't play you tube and other videos with Firefox. Have re-installed Adobe Flash player without success. I can play you tube videos using Internet Explorer.
    I am also unable to even see the link to audio replay on Capitol Pressroom archives. The same link is visible and functional on Internet Explorer.

    There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

    I have a mac book pro and have already downloaded adobe flash player. However when i go to watch a video it says "Blocked Plug In". But my adobe is already up to date. Can someone help me to fix this so i can watch videos?

    If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
    Step 2
    In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
    Step 3
    If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    Step 4
    If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
    If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Open this folder as in Step 4:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    Step 6
    Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    Step 7
    If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
    Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
    Then click the button marked
    Manage Website Settings...
    if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
    Step 8
    Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

  • I have tried to update flash player and when I put in my password, it is rejected.  I have recently updated my email address and changed my password, but adobe will not accept.  Can I get help, please, to update flash player?

    I have tried to update flash player and when I put in my password, it is rejected.  I have changed my email and password and have so informed adobe, but I am still unable to install flash player update.  How can I update adobe flash?

    This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
    If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt.  If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
    If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

  • 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.

  • My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think.

    My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think but it is linked as a plug in with chrome and IE.  How can I get my windows to recognise the .swf files to play them.

    The downloaded file is the projector, not an installer; you need to make the file association manually:
    move the downloaded exe file to a location you can remember, e.g. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
    right-click on a swf file and select Open with > Choose default program
    navigate to the folder you saved the player and select flashplayer_13_sa.exe

  • Pluggin container makes flash player crash. all is up to date. How to avoid this?

    Question
    pluggin container makes flash player crash. all is up to date. How to avoid this?

    First, download and run the Flash uninstaller: [http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html] . You probably want the 64-bit version. After that has run, restart your computer, and then let's download a fresh version of Flash. Try downloading and installing it from [http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_player_11_plugin_32bit.exe here].
    Once you have flash installed again, start Firefox up, and see if you are getting any errors. If it works, awesome, if not, let's move on.
    Start Firefox up in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode ]] (don't select any of the checkboxes that appear). If Flash works here, then it is one of your addons which is causing a problem.
    If we are still having a problem, try [[Updating your graphics driver|Updating your graphics driver]] .
    If none of these work, read [[Troubleshooting plugins|Troubleshooting plugins]] and let me know!

    I have a new Mac Pro and when I want to watch some videos on YouTube or videos for my online class, I get the "missing plug-in" message and am directed to download Adobe Flash Player. This is frustrating because I DESPISE just about anything Adobe! It's one of the main reasons I switched from PC to a Mac. Do I have to download Adobe Flash Player? Do I have another option? Should I stop whining about it and just do it even though it is a piece of crap?

    Could you do the following please.
    Click "Start" and then in the search box at the bottom of the menu, type: CMD
    When you get the link, right click it and choose "Run As Administrator".
    At the prompt, type CD\ and hit Enter. This will take you to the root.
    Next, type: net user administrator /active:yes and hit Enter to enable the hidden Administrator account.
    Type: EXIT to close the command prompt. 
    Reboot the machine and you'll see an additional logon option called Administrator. Choose that and then hit Enter to boot to the desktop (the Aministrator account doesn't have a password by default).
    Disable your antivirus to prevent it interfering with the installation. If you have AVAST antivirus, right click the orange icon in systray, go to Avast Shields Control and disable all shields for 1 hour. Otherwise consult this list for instructions on how to disable it: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html
    Next, download Flash for Internet Explorer from here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax_64bit.exe
    When you see the prompt, click "Run" to install it immediately.
    After the installation completes, open a command prompt again and type: net user administrator /active:no to disable the Administrator account.
    Reboot the machine and then open Internet Explorer.
    Click "Tools", then "Manage Add-ons".
    In the dropdown menu on the left near the bottom (see screenshot), choose "Run without permission".
    Scroll down to "Adobe Systems Incorporated" and verify that "Shockwave Flash Object" is installed and enabled. If it's present, but disabled, click the "Enable" button bottom left of that menu.
    Finally, re-enable you antivirus and reboot again. Check the "Manage Add-ons" menu to verify that Flash is still present.

  • Why does mac have to download adobe flash player to view videos

    why does mac have to download adobe flash player to view video clips?

    If you have a new-ish Mac or one you just upgraded to Mac OS X Lion, Adobe Flash Player is not installed by default. Since some web content is created specifically to be seen only with Adobe Flash Player, if you want to see that content, you need to install it.
    It's trivial to do so. Start here:
