Does director require flash player to be installed

Hi All,
I have developed a director application where i use flash
content(swf's) for my UI. Is there any need to install flash
players in the machine where i run my director exe.
Because in the run time i am loading combox contents from an
xml array. The problem which i face is that when i click on the
dropdown i a getting hanged.
Can any one help me on this.

Your program works correctly in authoring mode, yes? Your
projector
works correctly on one computer and not on another, yes? You
get no
errors when the program starts up?
Your projector will use the xtras that you included with your
projector.
They should work as expected.
This line of Actionscript can't possibly work: getURL("lingo:
"+_root.callBackFun+"("+evt_obj.target.selectedItem.data+","+"\""+evt_obj
.target.selectedItem.type+"\""+")");
There are many quote characters that aren't escaped. Can you
explain
what all of those "+" are for in there?
That change function would be a lot more clear if you put the
selectedItem's values into variables and then used those
variables.
Using _root to reference the base level of a Flash movie is
almost
always a bad idea. This may be the cause of the problem. I'm
not sure
what the hierarchical structure is for a Flash movie when
it's been
imported in to a Director movie, but it may be that _root
becomes the
Director movie, not the main timeline of the Flash movie. You
might try
using a relative path to that function and see if there's a
difference.

  • Youtube video requiring Flash Player

    Some of Youtube video requires Flash Player. I installed it successfully, but I still encounter the same error message. It appears that I have not installed ActiveX control. How do I install it. BTW, is the ActiveX control the issue here or somethingelse is going on?

    Hi,
    Please check the below mentioned knowledge base article and follow the instructions

  • I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image".  I don't know what this is and I cannot see anything that requires Flash Player.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have downloaded and installed Adobe Flash Player, but it was installed to a "disk image".  I don't know what that is, but I cannot view anything that requires flash player.  What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks for your help, but that didn't do any good either.  I have been double clicking from the download files, double clicking on the "install adobe flash player", closing the anti virus, closing Safari, watching the install progress and clicking finish.  It indicates that "flash player" is installed, but every time I try to view something requiring flash player, it tells me I must download it.  It shows up in the "system preference"  and from there I can make some changes, but it still won't let me view anything requiring "flash player".   It does not show up in my apps like Adobe Reader does.  It shows up in the "downloaded files" section of "Finder".  I'm getting really perplexed over my inability to get this right.

  • After Flash 11 install: Adobe Connect requires Flash Player 10.1 or above.

    Adobe Connect will not run on my XP Pro workstation. Flash (11.1.102.63) has been installed several times, with and without AVG. We get the Flash Successful Installation Screen, try to launch Connect again, and always bounce right into the same message:
    Adobe Connect requires Flash Player 10.1 or above.
    Its like the system is not recognizing the Flash install. How do we get beyond this? Thanks for your help!

    I have tried to invite my sister-in-law to join me in a Connect Now meeting.  Every time she tries to respond to the dialogue box that comes up when she clicks on the hyperlink I send her, she gets a message saying that she has to install Flash Player.  We have tried doing this on a number of occasions, but always end up with the same response.
    I've noted from your advice above that Internet Explorer and Google Chrome require different versions of Flash Player.  She tells me she has both browsers on her machine.  From the description she has given me, she appears to have downloaded both versions of Flash Player.
    Despite the fact that it appears she has now install both versions of Flash Player, however, she is still getting the same request to install Flash Player when she responds to my hyperlink request.
    Please help.
    As my sister-in-law is not technically minded, a simplified set of instructions would be appreciated.
    With my thanks and kind regards,
    Nicholas.

  • Does Air applications Require Flash Player?

    Well, this question may sound stupid but please help me out with my basic doubt. Does those applications created in Flex (as AIR application) require Flash Player at the client side or just installing AIR at the client side will do?

    No, Just AIR runtime is enough. Air application will use the airglobal.swc for compile.

    i have a HP laptop, when i try to do certain things that require flash player it tells me i need to install the latest version so when i try it says its already installed. i have tried all the trouble shooting suggestions and it stll isnt working. I even checked the activex filtering and that doesn't seem to be the problem.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

    Hi, You might want to review the Troubleshooting Guide as it has been updated and a lot of new information is now included. If you prefer you can use the Manual Installer for IE which you'll see there. A lot of the questions that I would ask are listed also.

  • Adobe Flash Player says not installed when it is.

    Adobe Flash Player shows as installed on the primary Admin account (and works there) all other Admin and regular user accounts say it isn't installed.
    I have tried installing as various users and Administrator status, but I get the same response.
    "Install Successful"
    "Adobe Flash Player not Installed"
    I am new to MAC, but can't fathom how this could be Apples fault. Unfortunately, Adobe support requires Adobe Flash Player to access help content.

    To find the folder I went to Finder > Library > Internet Plug-ins.
    The folder is empty and says 0 files. I am not currently on an Admin log-in, but I'm used to files showing regardless. When installing, I am asked for the Admin account and log in info before the file will load.
    I downloaded the latest flash player from Adobe this morning.
    Virtual Drive: What I am used to being an installation file in Windows shows up as a disk drive icon on my desktop. I have to "eject disk" to get rid of it. I thought it was just a "MAC" thing. Other software loaded this way, but also had me drag an icon to the Applications folder. Adobe does not.
    I am starting to wonder if there is a file sharing issue that isn't allowing me to see some software. I noticed I also do not see data in 'Public' when I know I added pictures there in another account. I can't remember changing any settings on my MBA. I have only had it a month and have been afraid of messing up my first MAC.
    Thanks for staying with this.

  • Flash Player only stays installed for one use

    I am using a Mac G4 Dual 1.25ghz MDD with OS 10.4.10 and both
    Safari 2.0.4 and Firefox 2.0.0.6 Browsers. I install Flash Player 9
    OSX, then the Browser works fine. I quit the Browser, relaunch it
    and any file requiring Flash Player displays as a Quicktime Q
    symbol with a Question Mark superimposed it. I have to install
    Flash Player before each use of either browser to be able to view
    files requiring flash player. The problem does not exist with
    Internet Explorer 5.2. Any Suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks
    ahead of time.

    Problem still exists on both Firefox and Safari, but not on
    Explorer. I have done restarts, re-installs of Flash, Permissions
    repairs. Nothing I have tried so far seems to be permanent. I have
    the install flash player on my desk top. I re-install to start up
    my default browser. It will work until I close the browser, then
    not work when I re-open it.

    Miu Miu Wooden Handle Tote
    I am constantly drawn to cream colored leathers. Browns and
    whites can be harsh at times, so adding a bit of cream to tone it
    down is the perfect option. And whites do not have to stop being
    worn after Labor Day, in fact winter whites are perfectly luxe for
    the season. But I typically opt for a white that is creamier. And
    the soya cream leather on the Miu Miu Wooden Handle Tote offers a
    feeling of winter resort. The wooden handle does give the bag a
    very resort feel, but would look perfect in a more tropical area
    (like South Florida). The wooden handle may not fit on your
    shoulder well, and even if it did it may grind into your shoulder a
    bit. Of course Miu Miu added in an optional detachable shoulder
    strap. I adore this bag, adore the color of the leather, and adore
    the wooden accent. Buy through (Buy through

  • What is the minimum required flash player version for FMP?

    subject pretty much says it all.
    and, does FMP degrade gracefully with older FP versions?  e.g., does it use StageVideo only if a user has the required flash player version?

    Oracle says that from 10g onwards, not need to have any other cluster software since it is providing CRS (cluster ready services) with 10g. However, having HACMP installed would be a good idea. I heard many problem, earliy release of 10g, aboug just using CRS instead of other clustered services.
    Well, we are using SHARQ d240 storage, but, didn't required any raw partition, and also not using ASM. Basically, we are in a testing mode.

  • Flash Player 10 Not installing on Win 7 64 bit PC

    Flash Player 10 download goes through install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
    After that There is always  a Flash Player Install file on the PC.
    When I click on that it goes through the install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
    Have tried above install more than 6 different times. Also on my wife's new PC.
    Always the same bad result.
    These two new PC's are both on WIN 7 64 bit OS.

    I tried the suggested method of uninstall and then install.  Also the disable instructions for Norton AV.
    Still no success.  When I again check the list of programs in Control Panel for possible uninstall the Flash Player 10 has returned there.
    But the player does not play when needed for some videos on Facebook, etc.
    One thing I could not find to disable on Norton AV was "Smart Firewall."  It was not in my NAV 2011.
    Any other suggestions appreciated.

    Hi, I would try this method and see if it works better. There is a link for FF(Firefox) If you don't use FF, ignore that. Also before you begin this procedure, I need to know what Anti-Virus/Spyware programs you have Installed. Some will block the Install of Flash Player and that needs to be taken care of first.
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
    Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
    Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
    Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
    Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
    Run the Installer for IE, Run the Installer for FF(If needed/used) and when finished, Reboot.
    Then go to this test site and test each browser:

    Some MacBook Pro versions cannot be upgraded past 10.6.8; others are maxed out at 10.7.5. newer models can go all the way to 10.10. So it is important to know exactly what version you have--there may be close to 40 variants produced since the MB made its debut in 2006.
