DW CS3 ImageViewer - problem with .swf file

I'm trying to make a slide show in Dreamweaver for the first time. I've searched and found a lot of common problems people have - forgetting to upload the .js file, not including the .swf file, etc.
I think I've done everything right (obviously I'm wrong though), it previews in DW, it works when I preview it in a browser, but when it's uploaded, nothing.
But I think I've found where the problem is. The .swf file that was created doesn't seem to be the right file. When I open it, it shows a blank flash slideshow with three empty slides, just as the sample is when you first open the Imageviewer.
But then what is DW pulling the slideshow from that works in the preview?? How do I re-export the .swf file from DW?
Do my questions even make sense? Sorry, kinda new at all this.
Thanks in advance.
Oh, here is the blank page, but when I view source, the code is there.
http://www.americanindianreport.com/imageviewer.html
The .js file is in the Scripts folder, the .swf is in the same folder. Actually, here you can see why it doesn't work. This is the .swf file, three blank pages:
http://www.americanindianreport.com/imageviewerflash.swf

If you look at my last post, the js file has been overwritten with html code, and this is what will be causing the problem.
The only solution is to delete this file insert a new flash object (any swf file will do for this), then copy the new js file to your server, as your flash will not work with this file.
here is a short example of the js files content (not javascript), -
<html>

Problem With Swf File. Please Help!!!!

Hi! I recently got adobe flash cs4 and i tried to create swf wallpaper (flash lite 1.1), so everything looked good, untill i opened the file. The problem is its constantly blinking, like its refreshing with every second or frame or something. Then i transfered it to my phone and theres no change. I had the same problem with CS3...I attached the sample, if someone cares to see...Please can somebody help me??? Thank you!

I think (at a first look) that you should put a stop() command at each frame of your movie.
Playhead is running through your movie from one frame to another and back to beginning if you don't stop it with stop() command.
What I mean is:
in frame one of your movie put ActionScript: stop();
in frame two of your movie put ActionScript: stop();
etc.
If navigation through your movie is linear, like some animations then don't put this AS in frames, but it seems to me that this will solve your problem.
For more (if this isn't helping) upload your movie along with ActionScript.

Problem with swf file on website

I created a swf file with flash CS4. I can do the publish
preview and the video plays just fine. I can even view the
generated html file on my local machine and it works. I upload to
my website and it does not work. Here is the link
http://www.streamlineprofits.net/movies/Potential.html
The player skin is acting like it cant find the swf file but
it is in the same directory. Also, when i go to the publish
settings for the html I select the "Paused at start" but the video
plays when I load the local html file in my browser. Any ideas or
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think it's a permission problem, but somehow the
Flash Player thinks (I think) the stream is coming from another
domain. With me a error pops up that goes like this:
SecurityError: Error #2148: SWF-Datei

Have you tried a super-simple <object>-style embed of
your video?
I really do think it's the Adobe-AC-JS-stuff that's messing
things up?
You could instead consider using swfobject
http://code.google.com/p/swfobject
But first I think you should try an <object>-embed to
see if it's the JS or the Flash that's messing things up.

Problem with .swf playback

Hello,
I have a problem with .swf animation playback in captivate 4. I created the .swf in flash with as3 on one frame. The animation is contained in a movieclip. I exported from flash and made sure the framerates between captivate and flash work. I import the animation to a slide and notice that the duration of the animation is .01 (could this be a red flag?). When previewing my captivate file the animation does not play it shows up static. I have my captivate file set up with continue buttons but I tried taking the button off the animation slide and it still shows up with the static what would be animation. Has anyone else encountered this? I'm really at a loss as to whats going on
For bonus points: I'm still getting a transition that fades to white briefly even after I put no transition. Is their a way to just have an abrubt transition without the fade?
Cheers
-Matt

Alright now it makes more "sense".
Your SWF problem is caused by a bug in Captivate. I have encountered this many many times. Basically if you import a Flash animation and you have more than 1 slide in Captivate it will play to the end before you get to the slide with the animation. It's a really annoying bug that also occurs if you insert an SWF created in Captivate into a master Captivate project.
There are a couple of solutions to your problem.
1. Try and Externalize your animations when you publish your Captivate project. This can sometimes remove the problem. You can edit the settings in Preferences - Publish Settings.
2. Create a loader in Flash that will pull in your animation SWF. Basically you just need to do a loadMovie shell in Flash and then have that pull in your animation SWF. I use this all the time for AS2 projects, but I guess that it will work just the same for AS3 projects.
As for your fade in / fade out issue. Did you by any chance set a transition effect on your slides? Check the Slide Properties for a transition effect. If that's not it - is your fade in issue only occuring on the first slide? The "master" setting for a Captivate project has a default to fade in on the first slide. You can change that in Preferences - Project - Start and End.

Problems with .ARW files and auto toning

problems with .ARW files and auto toning
let me try to explain this because this has happened in past and never found a way to resolve but i lived with it
now that I have a Sony A7R the problem is more serious
Firstly i take pride it making the picture happen all in camera, i use DRO lvl 5 to get enough light, like when i'm shooting at dusk. DRO its like doing HDR but in a single file, it lightens the darks. in my camera i'm happy with results
but when I upload them to lightroom, they come out near black.
allow me to explain
lets say I import 100 images
i double check my preferences and everything is UNCHECKED when it comes to importing options, there is no auto toning, nothing.
as the images import i see a preview in the thumbnail which looks fine.
i double click on one to enlarge it, hence leave grid view.
for a brief 1 or 2 seconds, i see the full image in all its glory but than lightroom does something funny, it darkens the image
one by one as it inspects each image, if it was a DRO image it makes it too dark.
to make this clear, the image is perfect as it was in the beginning but after a few seconds lightroom for some reason thinks it needs to correct it.
how to prevent lightroom from doing this, i want the image exactly as it is, why must lightroom apply a correction>?
i think it has to do something with interpreting the raw file and lightroom applies its own algorithm.
but here is what i dont get.....before lightroom makes the change i'm able to witness the picture exactly as it was taken and want it unchanged..
now i have to tweak each file or find a profile for it which is added work.
any ideas how to prevent lightroom from ruining my images and just leave them as they were when first detected...
there are 2 phases...one is when it originally imports and they look fine
second is scanning each image and applying some kind of toning which darkens it too much.
thanks for the help

sorry thats the auto reply message from yahoo email.
i've disabled it now
thing is, there is no DRO jpg to download from the camera
its only ARW. so my understanding is when i use DRO setting, the camera makes changes to the ARW than lightroom somehow reads this from the ARW.
but then sadly reverts it to no DRO settings.
because i notice if i take normal picture in raw mode its dark but if i apply dro to it, it comes out brighter, yet when i d/l the image from camera to lightroom, which is an ARW - there are no jpgs. lightroom decides to mess it up
so in reality there is no point in using DRO because when i upload it lightroom removes it.
is there a way to tell lightroom to preserve the jpg preview as it first sees it.
its just lame, picture appears perfect...than lightroom does something, than bam, its ruined,.
what do i need to do to prevent lightroom from ruining the image? if it was good in the first place.

printout.writeBytes(content);conffie is sent to the server but
it's non possible to treat binary data as String!
Image files must be sent as byte[] NOT as String ......

Because i commented the above line & compiled, so it is not giving any error now.

I think the real problem is that you don't check the return value from read (it's probably less than data.length indicating an incomplete read). Isn't there a readFully somewhere?

Problem with .sitx files (Safari but not Firefox???)

Hi All,
I have a website online (with help from iWeb and BBEdit) but am having a problem I cant figure out (this IS my first website!)
I am hoping that someone much more knowledgeable than me can help me with it.
I basically have a download section. Icons and desktops.
Now, when I (or anyone else) tries to download- everything seems to be fine in FireFox (even IE!) but not in Safari.
My desktops are compressed as .zip files. No problems there, everyone can download and open (including Safari users!)
My icons are compressed as .sitx files. This is where the problems come in. Firefox and IE download them no problem ('save to disk?' etc) However when one attempts to download the icons (.sitx files) with Safari it simply displays pages of gibberish (starting with the word 'Stuffit') which I am presuming is Safari trying to 'display' the contents of the actual stuffit file.
Why is this? Why wont safari simply download the .sitx files as it does .zip files?
Does Safari have some sort of inherent problem with .sitx files? Is it some sort of configuration within Safari preferences? or (and probably most likely!) is it something I have done wrong?
Oh, my website (page in question!) can be found here:
http://aoimedia.co.uk/news/news.html
Thanks in advance for all your valuable help
Kind regards

Hi,
It sounds like the server the website/file is hosted on is not identifying the type correctly. As you've seen, different browsers will handle this situation differently.

Problems with updating files in the cloud

problems with updating files in the cloud

What kind of problems?
Have you recently upgraded to iCloud Drive on your iOS devices with iOS 8?

Error: There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied

I've been trying to copy (and essentially move) the contents of an NTFS-formatted external HDD to my iMac's internal HDD so I can then format the external HDD to Mac OS Extended. However, when I simply try to drag and drop, I get an error during the transfer that states:
There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied.
I tried a basic cp command in Terminal to copy all contents of the external HDD to a folder on my iMac's desktop, and found that while there were no errors, there were many individual files missing full chunks of data (ie. original file would be 4GB on my external HDD, but only 350MB on my desktop).
Any ideas on how I can successfully copy a large amount of data (approx. 170GB) from my external HDD to my internal HDD while avoiding this error, so I can ultimately format my external HDD to Mac OS Extended? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

That's not a good error to see. It indicates something is very wrong. Pulled out of an old programming header file:
ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/
If Apple labelled it "bummers," they had a good reason! Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you.
Try running Disk Utility again. Keep repairing over and over until one of two things happens: 1) Disk Utility says no repair was needed, or 2) Disk Utility reports the same error in two sequential repair sessions and is unable to repair it both times.
If you hit the second case, or if you hit the first but still can't copy files, then you've got two basic options:
= Buy a third-party disk utility or two and try them. Try TechTool as a first choice.
= Recover what files you can and write the rest off as gone.
= Send your drive to a data recovery service and hope they can extract more than you can.
Of course, none of this is necessary if you have a backup of the contents of that hard drive. (If you don't, this is your learning experience. Once bitten, twice shy, so they say.) Also, regardless of the outcome, once you've got your data or have decided it's gone, you're going to want to wipe that drive completely clean. Reformat the drive with Disk Utility, then when it's done, select the drive in Disk Utility and hit command-i. (Don't select the new volume you just created on that drive, select the drive itself. Mine looks like "232.9 GB Hitachi ..." with the volume name indented underneath.) Look for an item that says S.M.A.R.T. Status, and if it doesn't say Verified, you might as well throw out the drive. Don't trust any more data to it.
If all appears safe, you can start moving data back onto it. But, as always, make sure you have a backup of everything!
