Edit... Flash button not working in Studio 8

If I select a Flash object and click on the Edit... Button in
the Properties window, nothing happens. No errors, no warnings,
nothing. Flash 8 does not open.
If I double click the Flash object, the resulting dialog
shows me that Dreamweaver knows where the .swf file is (right disk,
right directory), but the Edit... button doesn't work.
I've re-entered the application that opens .swf files in the
Preferences Menu, and I've even reinstalled both Flash 8 and
Dreamweaver 8.01...still no go.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Since "ABOVE" means nothing to those of us using NNTP to read
these forums
(most of the regulars), and since it's usually the regulars
who post the
answers, it's always a good idea to restate your problem and
its symptoms,
instead of just saying "me too".
Can you do that?

Flash Buttons Not Working in DREAMWEAVER !!!!!!!!!!! :(

Ive made an animation in flash of curtians opening to a stage of dancers, who are all buttons.
When i put this animation into dreamweaver and test the web page the buttons do NOT work
PLEASE HELP ME !!
lmack

Most likely a site definition problem. Did you define a local site in DW BEFORE you created your web page? This critical first step is necessary for DW to properly manage your site.
If you don't already have web hosting (a commercial web server space), you need to sign-up for one. There are countless hosts and hosting plans available.
Use the log-in details provided by your web host to set-up your Remote Site connection in DW. See link below for details.
Creating your first web site in DW CS5 -

Flash buttons not working in IE7 and Chrome

Here's my website where the problem is occuring www.bakercreative.co.uk
As you can see the Flash buttons animate, but when clicked they should go to a new html page.
I've tested it in IE8 and Firefox without any problems but it's not working in IE7 and Chrome.
Does anyone know what the problem is? Could it be the html code or the flash file itself?
Thanks

Hi, Glad you were able to solve that issue with the buttons and Chrome. Any small thing can cause big problems!! LOL
I'm sure IE7 will test out ok, IE6 did Your website is very nice and has a variety! I hope it all comes together for you.
Thanks,

Flash Button 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?
To read the old tread where there was no resolution search
for jimkemble as author thanks

Post the "code view" code that is generated and any other
code that you have written so we can get an idea of the problem.

First Flash Button Not working

I am new to Flash, so please forgive me if this is a basic
question. But I have searched and searched and cannot find the
answer. I've tried everything I can think of - but nothing is
working. I have a button I created in Flash - I've used the
following script to make the button take the user to the correct
page:
schb_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
buttonClickHandler);
function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("
http://www.raycomfg.com/stump_cutters_mwf.htm"));
which works...except that it opens the page in a new window.
The page exists in the same directory as the page containing the
button...what is the correct way to get there? I tried using
getURL, but I get an error saying its an undefined method.
thanks for any suggestions

it is not very clear that what you want by your post but if
you are looking to open the content in the same browser window you
need to write this.
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("
http://www.raycomfg.com/stump_cutters_mwf.htm"),"_self");
it will open the file in the same window make sure the target
html file needs to be in same directory in which your swf and swf
publish html file lies.

Animated Flash Buttons Not Working Right

I'm updating my website and my menu buttons have an animation on the mouseOver. A simple animated button with the "Up", "Over", "Down" and "Hit" keyframes.
www.brenda-nies.com will show the effect of my menu buttons and the effect I want to keep. Part of my updates are switching to AS3 and that's where my problem comes in. You can't see it on the website I gave you, but in my working file, when I test it (in IE8), everything starts out fine when I first rollover my button, the animation runs through it's cycle and stops. However, if I press down on the mouse button, the animation starts over. The same when I release the mouse button, the animation starts over. I want the animation to run through 1 cycle and stop, then stay stopped until I roll off the button.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong....or not doing?

I appreciate you help, you helped me on another question before as well. However, for this particular question, I'm am already doing what your saying, at least I think I am.
I've attached a screenshot below of what I currently have. The first layer, is all text, so...the "About Me". The second layer is my animation. That blue and black bar is actually hidden behind that grayed out "black and wood" area. That blue and black bar is also the "Button_Bar" layer in my timeline. When I rollover "About Me", that blue bar rises up and the edges fade. That all works fine and dandy. However (and I'm sorry if I'm repeating), let's say I want to go to the "About Me" section. When I click "Down" the mouse button, the animation starts over - the blue bar disappears for a split second and rises up from behind that aforementioned area. The same when I release the mouse button - the bar disappears for a split second and rises up. And I have to mention that not once did I roll off my button, yet the animation replayed with each mouse event.
I thought maybe it was my file so I did a test and started fresh with a brand new document. Same thing is happening. I don't have any script, except for the stop script in my movie clip. Should I be using some kind of script?
As for the movie clip, I created it using a shape tween. I also don't want anything in the "Up" state.

Buttons not working, all of a sudden?

Nothing has changed, no editing was done, and all of a sudden, buttons not working. I trued exporting from Flash again, with the same pblish settings. Bit Action Script seems to give me a message now saying it wont export as a button. Tried AS 2.0 and 3.0, but i made original files in 3.0
thoughts???
thank you!

Either convert that symbol to a button symbol so that you can use the code you showed, or assign it an instance name and place the following code in the timeline...
yourMCName.onRelease = function(){
getURL("page2.html","_self","GET");
Where yourMCName is whatever instance name you assign

Logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014

logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014 winds 8.1. Is this a common problem?
I have updated the latest drivers and have a few buttons programmed with keyboard shortcuts that used to work in previous versions of Photoshop but don't work now.
Scrolling with mouse in bridge stopped working in cc butI see it is now working.
any ideas?

Many Photoshop extensions are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014 for Adobe removed support for Flash Panels in CC 2014. Many extensions panels are flash based. Check with the developer to see if their blendmein extension works with CC 2014.
Adobe does not maintain Photoshop so it backward compatible with prior versions of Photoshop. This brakes things like action scripts plugins extensions etc. Keep old version of Photoshop installed....

thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

Why does flash player not work with facebook?

Why does flash player not work with fcebook? Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player. When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one. I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows. I don't know anything else.
Message was edited by: khettich

This means you don't have the latest version installed. Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

Edit-flash button grayed out

Hey, I have Dreamweaver MX2004 and Flash MX2004 normally
installed on my computer. Although my edit-flash button is grayed
out when i'm in the properties panel of the .swf document (who i
added to my document with Insert >> Media >> Flash)
http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/8024/helplr4.jpg
I searched alot for this, but it does not seem to happen to
anyone. Can somebody help me? Thanks.

No, PSE 6 and later never displays an icon for a sub-category. If you accidentally created a sub-category where a leaf keyword tag will do, change the sub-category to a keyword tag by right-clicking it, and then you'll be able to assign an icon. But if you change the keyword tag back to a sub-category, the icon will disappear.
None of that design seems very well thought out.

CS3 Web Standard SE. Can't edit Flash buttons

I have an issue where I am unable to edit Flash buttons or
Flash text that have been created in DW CS3.
I am using CS4 Web Standard SE. A colleague of mine is using
the same software and also unable to edit these.
Until now I thought it was maybe a trial issue but have today
activated the software. But the issue remains.
Regards
Dave

It's not a Trial issue. It's a conscious design decision by
Adobe announced
in Aug 07.
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402489
Flash buttons and Flash text have always been ill conceived
features for
webpages.
Adobe recognised this by dropping them from DW CS4.
If you still want to keep them and edit them, use DW CS3.
However, consider using CSS styled buttons instead.

Saved Shopping Cart Display/Edit functions are not working

Hello SRM experts,
The problem that I have is that the buttons like Display, Edit, etc are not working on a saved Shopping Cart. What is the best way to debug this problem? How would I find out what methods are being called on the SRM system or if some entries are missing in some table for BUS2121?
We are on SRM 7.0 PPS SPS 5, Portal 7.01 SPS 5.0.
Thanks,
Mani

Hi Mani,
We are also facing a similar issue. Our protocol is HTTP throughout but still the issue persists.
Can you shed some light on any other config that you changed?

NOKIA 202 RED BUTTON NOT WORKING

I JUST TURNED OFF MY PHONE 202 AND after some time i try to switch on that phone but red button not worked and other keybuttons works good and i try flash the phone but it says remove cable and batery and put cable and put batery and power on but funny thing is my red button not worked and i just got dull finally i am asking you guys is there any solution to power on i try almost all key board tricks i.e * 3 gren red etc or a software to power on.MY NOKIA 202 RED BUTTON NOT WORKING

Hi, DEVRAMP. How did you flash your phone? Is there a battery indicator when you charge it? You may try the following solution below:
Check that the keypad is not locked.
Make sure that all keys are responding correctly when they are pressed. In some cases, a key may get stuck and freeze the whole keypad.
Try removing and replacing the covers (if your phone supports that feature). Check that the power and side keys on the cover are properly aligned (e.g. pushed out) to their respective positions to have a proper tactile feel when pressing the keys.
Keep us posted.
