DW8 built in Flash not working

When in design view and choose media--flash button or flash
text, i fill out the dialog box and save file but all I see when I
hit apply and OK is a gray box with handles and a f in it. Then in
browser check it does not show at all? My computer does have flash
reader as I can see other site's flach elements properly. I
followed the DW help and an online movie explanation.
I understand that Dreamweaver can generate it's own flash
elements such as flash text and buttons.
What am I missing

Thanks - that helps loads.
Do you have a site defined in DW? Are you operating within
the current site
when you do this?
I followed your instructions to this point -
> I hit APPLY for a preview and I see the approximately
> 30pixel gray box with a f in it.
When I hit APPLY, I see the Flash button on the page, not the
gray box. And
this is the code I get -
<object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0"
width="107" height="18">
<param name="movie" value="jims_test.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFF00" />
<embed src="jims_test.swf" quality="high"
pluginspage="

type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="107" height="18"
bgcolor="#FFFF00"></embed>
</object>
You can see the proper encoding of the SWF filename.
In your case, try just making the code you have look like
this and see what
happens.

ISight built in flash not working

I took pictures on the photo booth last week and the built in flash was working just fine.. it would do the countdown and it would brighten up the image. Today, I tried taking a picture and the flash would go off (screen turn bright white) but the image would look as if my flash did not go off. the images are dark.. is this a software issue or a hardware issue? should I take it in to get checked??

• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (the "reset" suggested there
   often restores normal function,) continue with the following.
• Use Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
   download and apply the 10.7.2 Combo Update:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1459
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
The Combo version of updates can sometimes correct
strange problems like yours.

Iphone 4 camera flash not working.

Iphone 4 camera flash not working when taking pictures but works with the flashlight app. I have ios 7. Tried factory reset. My wife has the same problem with her iphone 4 since the first month she has had it. Any suggestions?

and what have you done to try and fix the situation? Have you taken the steps recommended in the User Guide?

Flash not working in Safari 5

Flash has been buggy for me in Safari 5, ever since I updated the Flash player last week to "10.1 r53". Either Flash files don't play at all, or just the audio plays without video.
Per the instructions on these boards, I have:
1. reset Safari
2. uninstalled flash player
3. installed the flash player
4. repaired permissions
5. restarted
The issue is still there. Firefox plays Flash files, YouTube, etc. just fine. Safari does not.
I'm running SL 10.6.4, latest Software Updates.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I created a new account. Flash works in the new account. That's cool, but I really don't want to re-locate all my prefs, etc., just for a buggy plugin.
So, I next...
1. grabbed the Safari plist from the new account
2. logged out of the new account
3. logged into the old account (where Flash does not work)
4. moved the old account's com.apple.safari plist file out of the Preferences folder
5. moved the clean Safari plist file (from the new account) into the Preferences folder
6. reset and restarted Safari
7. Flash worked...for about two minutes. I tested on YouTube, Vimeo and Google Analytics. Back to Flash not working in Safari.
I then tried repeating the earlier steps.
1. reset Safari
2. uninstall flash player
3. install flash player
4. repaired permissions
5. restarted
Still doesn't work.
Just one other thing to note: whenever I pull up a web page with Flash, I get a "file not found" error in Safari's activity monitor (link is below)...could this be an error with Adobe's website rather than a Safari-permission thing?

Flash not working in photo booth.

The flash in photo booth on my iMac is not working. When I take a pic, the screen flashes but the pic is still dark. Was working fine yesterday. I did install the latest osx today. That's the only changes since then.

In case anyone is interested in your screen flash not working in the Yosemite or Maverick photo booth application, I finally called Apple today and he kept insisting it was working on his - I asked him to take a pic with the screen flash enabled and then disable it and he said it came out the same. And rationalized that it was because he was in a well lit room. I kept telling him in my old photo booth from system 10.6.8 that my face was lit up and my husband had reflections from his glasses so we went from him wanting me to reinstall my software (I refused since both computers were having the same problem - one using Yosemite and the other using Maverick) to him finally going into HIS partitioned disk that has system 10.6.8 on it to discover that the flash there reflected off HIS glasses too. Bottom line is he admitted there has to be some flaw that prevented the photo booth flash from working for Maverick and Yosemite. Whew, finally validation!

Why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

HP Mini 110-3700 built-in camera not working

I just bought my HP Mini 110-3700 (LV831PA#UUF) last january. I just tried using the HP camera twice to check if the image it captures is clear. Yesterday, i will use the camera for a video chat but the messenger said "Cannot detech the camera/ device is not connected).When I had clicked the link for the HP Camera it had open but the light indicator didn't have any light and the camera isn't working.
I already tried restoring the HP mini to factory settings but after that, the camera isn't working still. What should I do? Need help ASAP.
Thank you!

Flash is totally unrelated to Java, so what you're saying is that certain plugins are not working under Safari of which one just happens to be Java. You're the second one I see make mention of that, but the fact remains that you'd need to ask Apple what is going on with their browser.

Photo Booth flash not working in Maverick or Yosemite

I have noticed that the photo booth flash in Maverick on my Macbook Pro and in Yosemite on my iMac is not working Screen flash is enabled on both.
So this is happening on two different computers. Does anyone know how to fix this? All my photos are so dark on both of my computers using Maverick and Macbook Pro.
It works fine on system 10.6.8 though.
Has anyone else had this problem too?

Built in app not working

my weather icon built in app not working ??? anybody help please

First try opening multi tasking by double clicking the home button and scroll through until you fine weather app, hold it until it start bouncing and then delete it. Then try opening it again and see if it is working. If not repeat the previous step and then reset your device by holding the home button and the lock button simultaneity until screen goes black then release. Wait until device restarts and try the app again. If the problem still exists than back up the device either on its home computer or through iCloud reinstall the software. If it comes to this step there are more in depth tutorials online: just google it. Tell me if this helps.

Hp pavilion dv6-3151sf built-in speaker not working

Need help on hp pavilion dv6-3151sf built in speakers not working but can hear sound using the headphone. Is there a service manual on how to replace or check the speakers?

Hi there @JINGDOMS
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.
In answer to your question about the service manual, there sure is, and I am happy to help you with this.
You can find it on the support page for your model, or just use this link: HP Pavilion dv6 Entertainment PC - Maintenance and Service Guide.
Within the service guide you will find the replacement instructions for the individual assemblies, and also the part numbers. I would start with just checking the connection to make sure it is good, and if there is still no sound from the speakers, you can also try this page as well, before replacing the part.
No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
If you determine that is a faulty speaker and you want to get replacement parts, take a took at this page:
HP Notebook PCs - Ordering HP Certified Replacement Parts
Let me know if you need any further assistance.

My Aspire 5750-6438 built in microphone not working.

My Aspire 5750-6438 built in microphone not working. My OS is windows 7 64-bit. I have updated all the driver. Built in microphone is not even recognized in the sound setting.

welly267,
Go into the device manager and check to see if there is a yellow or red icon next to your built-in microphone. If there is a red one, it's probably disabled, see if you can enable it. If it is yellow, right click to uninstall it, then restart your notebook to see if it installs correct and starts working. Look through these steps if it does start showing up in the sound manager.
If it does not, you can try to remember when it worked last and try a system restore. If you cannot remember, you might have a hardware problem or can try to perform a recovery as a last resort to see if that solves it.

Built in iSight not working with Google chat?

Hi all,
I recently updgraded to Mac OS X version 10.7.2 for my Intel based iMac. Since then, the built in iSight camera does not work with Google Chat. It does work with iChat and Photobooth though.
I reistalled the Google chat plug in (or I guess I installed it again). I ran a check, and my software updates are current. I tried the power down, unplug the power cord, wait 15 seconds routine, and that didn't work either.
When I go in to Mail Settings in gmail, click Chat, and then Verify your Settings, I don't see anything in the window next to it - just black.
Does anyone have any good ideas to help? Using google chat is just a lot more convenient for me than using iChat...
Thanks!

Hi,
For some time now the Google Web Browser Video Chat plug-in (Also and automatic part of Installing Chrome) has been an issue in relation to going to Video Chat sites that use the Flash Plug-in.
My Flash Plug-in in Lion is version 11.1 r102
I don't have the Google one so I could not tell you the latest from them.
I am not sure that Google are moving very fast, if at all on this matter.
It could be as soon as either Flash makes an update it ruins the progress Google have made.

T5i auto flash not working

My T5i auto flash has stopped working in every mode except CA. It worked fine for a while but now this problem just appeared. I have the 100-400 and 24-105 lenses and the same thing happens with both. I upgraded the firmware but that did not help. I really dont want to send this camera back to the factory though it is still under warranty...any thoughts? Thanks.

Normally you have to pop-up the flash to enable it. But the camera will raise the flash on it's own in some modes... CA, full auto (green box), and some of the scene-based modes such as portrait, close-up, and night-scene.
In other modes it should not pop up on it's own, but if you press the button to raise the flash then the camera will use it (basically your decision to leave the flash down vs. pop the flash up tells the camera if you'd like to use it ... or not.) You raise the flash by pressing the button that resembles a lightning bolt on the front of the camera located near the "EOS Rebel T5i" badge.
The built-in flash isn't nearly as powerful as some external flashes. Subject distances should typically be within about 10' or so when using the built-in flash. If you need to cover greater distances (as might be the case when using a 100-400mm lens) then you'd need an appropriate external flash.
