Embeded flash IE6 no start arrow

If I open my page with FFox it's fine the flash symbol occurs
sized by the object definition (height 100px). If I open it in IE6
or IE7 it goes straight to the flash content missing out the start
arrow. The content is shown in the object height (silly) and not
the embed height (640px). How do I get these two delinquents to
open with that flash or start symbols?
site. Go to the
Newsletter for August item.

I've now noticed that many websites now have the Flash play
button appearing instead of going straight to the picture or movie.
So the webpage can be littered with these. Is there a reason for
this other than someone making lots of flash content for their
site?

Why can't I view embedded flash videos on my MacBook Pro?

I can view videos on Youtube and embedded videos on some sites, but when I try to view embedded Flash videos on sites like CNN.com and NBA.com, I just get a black rectangle and nothing loads. I've tried this on all browsers. BTW, I also cannot open up tinted ads that come up in Google searches. I have the latest version of Flash, and I've deleted browsing data and settings and have checked "Allow sites to save info." I've disabled pop-up window blocker. I have no ad blocking software. I've installed the latest Flip4Mac plugin. I have even set up a new user account and tried these sites with that account to see if the problem goes away (it didn't).
I have a 12 inch 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro with OS 10.8.3 installed (though the problem started when I still had Snow Leopard). I have all the latest browsers and , as I've said above, the latest Flash. I've tried both Java 7 and Java 6. I should also point out that I can access these sites without problem with my office Macbook Pro, which is a 15 inch Core 5, loaded with the same software I have on my problem 12 inch notebook.
Any suggestions?

You have JavaScript enabled in all the browsers, yes? Have you tried launch the browsers in Safe Mode?

Not aware of a 12-inch Intel MBP. Anyway, could you possibly have an old version of flash player on your computer too. Look in the In the Internet Plug-ins folder to be sure you have only one flash player plugin. Path is HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/Flash Player.plugin
Also try searching your hard disk for flash.
Some other things to try are in this thread.

Flash is not handled correctly with Firefox. In an Flash Environment modules are re-initialized if other embedded flash modules in the main one are rotating

We develop flash modules for clients. In the latest Firefox with the latest Flash Plugin it happens that flash components are affected when other components are rotating .
For example if you open one of our demo's
http://www.crocon-media.com/?page_id=190&lang=en
and you click in the top on "MUSIC" a radio player will load. Before the Intro MP3 file is played completely, some modules that are embedded in that flash rotate, means they re-start. This never affected all other embedded modules but do now. The radio component simply stops playing. This does not happen in any Internet Explorer version and has worked with under Firefox before.

After putting those 2 flash components out the bundle we also see, that even if the rotating flash is loaded separately and another for example audio streaming flash module is running, once the stand-alone rotating flash module is starting back at frame 0 it affects all other flash modules on the same page, even if they are not connected to each other. This is a serious issue.

Controlling embedded Flash player

Hi All,
I am working on a project whereby the embedded Flash player
(9) needs to be controlled from code.
The following must be accomplished:
There is a list of .swf files stored in a XML file on the web
server. (These .swf files are converted from .mpg movie files.)
The Flash player needs to load the first .swf file.
When it finishes playing the first file it must load the next
one and start playing it automatically.
This process needs to be repeated until the last .swf file is
played.
Whilst playing the .swf file corresponding text must be shown
in a textbox on the same web-page.
When the player finishes playing the last file it must
restart at the first file for the second time
and repeat the whole process the second time but now when it
reaches a certain file for the second time
the player must stop and ask the user a question. The user
will type in his/her answer.
When the answer is correct the Flash player will continue to
play the next file else show the correct answer, mark the question
as wrongly answered and then continue on to the next .swf file.
After the Flash player finishes playing the last file it must
check if any question was wrongly answered.
If so then that .swf file will be shown again and the
question & answer game will be repeated.
When all questions have been answered correctly the user will
be redirect back to the calling page.
The current development environment for the project is C#.NET
2.0
Any help in accomplishing this is very much appreciated.
Best regards,
Arjan

Hello ak_kanan,
Welcome to the forums.
Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off. Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue.
Let us know how you make out.

Audio problems with embedded Flash

I have the Flash of a Captivate simulation embedded on one of
the slides in my Presenter file. When I publish it, the audio for
the Flash starts playing in the middle of the previous slide -
playing over the audio for that slide. When I click Pause, the
audio for the Presenter slide stops, but the Flash audio keeps
going even though I haven't gotten to the slide with the embedded
file yet. It always starts 4-5 seconds into the previous slide.
Does anyone have a clue why this is happening?
I've used embedded Flash files in Presenter several times
with no problems, and the settings in Presenter are all the same as
in the presentations that work correctly.
- In Presentation Settings, I have "controlled by
presentation playbar" deselected because there are click boxes in
the Captivate sim that users will click to advance.
- In Slide Properties, I have "advance by user" select for
both the embedded slide and the previous slide.
- I thought that there was some glitch in the Audio Editor,
so I added 5 seconds of silence at the end of the previous slide,
and added enough silence to the embedded slide to more than cover
the length of the embedded piece.
This is the first time I've tried to embed a Flash file since
I upgraded to Captivate 2. Could something have changed on the
Captivate side of things? It still doesn't make sense why the audio
would start playing before the Flash starts, but I'm grasping at
straws here.
Thanks!
Judi

A little additional information:
It isn't just the audio from the embedded Flash that runs
early - it's the actual Flash file. I don't know if this makes any
difference in figuring out what's going on, but thought I'd add
that bit of detail.
Also - I had found out that my Captivate project that I
created the Flash from had gotten corrupted and was hoping that
fixing that would fix this problem as well ... but no such luck...

Embedded Flash videos don't work

Since updating Firefox to 36, embedded Flash videos don't work. HTML5 and Flash videos on YouTube work fine. I have Click-To-Play enabled (disabling it didn't help too), but instead of a grey area with the message I just see a black area where the video is supposed to be. Does anyone else have this problem?

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

Hello,
That means it can find the Hard Drive, or can't find the things needed for booting.
See if DU even sees it.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

Embedding Flash in HTML using Dreamweaver - stopped working

Hi all, not really sure what's going on, but I've done this many times before and it's worked fine.
I've previously embedding Flash videos I've created in Premiere and/or converted using other software. I simply drag and drop the Flash file where I want it and then adjust layout using code/design etc and that's it, job done. It's always played back fine.
Now for some reason I've tried doing it again this morning and can't figure it out. When I preview the file it doesn't even show the video, but instead displays all the icons for the controls at once in a grid where the video is meant to be. I've tried in IE, Firefox and Chrome, updated drivers, windows, Adobe, Flash etc all to no avail.
I've even tried doing it in a blank HTML page in case some of the template I might have been using was interfering for some strange reason; still no luck. What's even stranger is that a site I created last year is also now not displaying Flash (FLV) content locally, but is working fine on the server.
Does anyone have any ideas?
(CS5 Dw:V11 build 4993, Win7 64bit SP1)
I've pasted the code from the blank HTML page. It's probably something really simple that I've not noticed:

Im' having a VERY similar problem with a few estra 'happy' moments. I have a blog (WP). On this simple and VERY basic blog (with almost NO plug ins) I have attempted to embed FLV videos with CS$ Dreamweaver code.
(This code is different in CS$ than it was in earlier versions as it now calls to the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf as the player and uses Flashvars to pass the value of the FLV. PReviously, it was four simple lines of code that pointed directly to the SWF)
Here was my process - I encoded the files with AE and Media Encoder to end up with Transparent FLV's. These, I then setup in Dreamweaver so I could copy the embed code. On my first attempt, it worked PERFECTLY. I was testing one particular flv, got the code and inserted it into the blog page with some special CSS to position it.
The movie played perfectly.
Then things got weird.
I was excited I had a solution, so I went to put another video on another page. No luck. The second page was playing the video from the first page. As if I had copied the same code, but I hadn't. I copied code that was 'pointing' to the new file, but for whatever reason, the new file would not play.
I did EVERYTHING. I deleted all the pages and strted fresh. I deleted the FLV's and reuploaded them. I created different folders and put each flv in it and created index.html files for each (assuming possibly there was a hardcoded element in the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf). I copied and pasted back and forth for nearly 6 hours.
Nothing. Each time I would copy and paste code into a blog page, it would simply pull the original video.
THEN....things got worse.
I pulled one video off of the server, and now NONE work. I can't get ANY videos to play. Worse, I still have the 'express install' link showing.
Ok, so here is what I am trying to figure out;
Does the NEW DW CS4 code somehow have control over the file that is called? Further, HOW can I get more than one FLV to play across a whole blog site.
Here is a link to one of the pages that HAS code but is calling NOTHING. And please know that I have left copies of the necessary files ALL over the server. So they are in the root, in the 'files' folder, in the talent folder and everywhere.
Is there a conflict flash hits when there are multiple FLV's being called? Is there a way to do this? Please help....
Thank you

Adobe Reader cannot play embedded Flash content

I don't know why, the Flash format was originally created by Macromedia, and then Adobe acquired the company, but the Adobe Reader cannot display Flash content.
My PDF file is here:
http://genifer.googlecode.com/files/agi-book.pdf
Scroll to page 37.
The original SWF file is here:
http://genifer.googlecode.com/files/unified-AND-OR.swf
which *can* be played on my Chrome browser.
But when I embedded the SWF file in the PDF, the result is unplayable.
A clue is: Adobe Reader asked me to download QuickTime to display media contents. So I downloaded QuickTime. But QuickTime nowadays has removed Flash support. Why did Adobe Reader ask me to download QuickTime to display Flash, when Adobe owns the Flash format?
I have also tried selecting other media players in the Reader's option box (eg, Windows Media, Windows built-in, Adobe Flash, etc) but none of them works.
I have also tried using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9. Same result.
It seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Adobe Reader most certainly CAN play embedded Flash content, but only if you embed it properly.
You're seeing a Quicktime warning because you're embedding the SWF as "legacy media" content - this is no longer supported for authoring and is disabled by default for playback.You should use Rich Media Annotations instead (embedding using the multimedia/flash tool in Acrobat 9 or Acrobat X).

Embeded Flash and Internet Explorer

When try and access a page I have created with internet
explorer composed of html with an embed .swf there is a white box
that one has to click to then access the normal functions of the
.swf. Is there any code to make it so this extra click to access
the embeded flash does not have to happen? It does not happen in
firefox or safari.

Oh god .. here we go again .. Obviously someone has been
living under a rock
or on a deserted island for a few months :)
This is due to Microsoft IE changes required to avoid
infringing the
(stupid) EOLAS patent. It applies to all Active-X control
that can interact
with the user.
If you are viewing a web site, you cannot really do anything
to fix it,
except complain to the web master

HELP! Embedding Flash with Dreamweaver CS4

Hello i'm have issues with CS4 embedding Flash FLV's.
It won't show up when it's on the server but it's working
locally.
i've uploaded all the files in the scripts folder and the swf
skin files.
But it still won't work server-side.
I did not have this issue with dreamweaver CS3 as i've found
that Dreameaver CS4 seems to
change how the code of how the .FLV is embedded
any ideas??
or is anyone else having this issue?
thanks
Jordan
here's is my current test page link with a sample flv video:
http://www.lambethdesktop.com/flashtest/index.html

embedded in.

folder)

Hello ak_kanan,
Welcome to the forums.
Try doing the following. In the browser swipe down from the top and choose Settings, now choose Content, here where it says Enable Flash change this to Off. Now try going to the website that was not working (it will not work again this is fine) Once on the page swipe down from the top again and this time enable the Flash setting. Now reload the page and test to see if you have the same issue.
Let us know how you make out.

Get URL from embedded Flash AS3 movie

I have a thumbnail scroller app built with AS3 on my website
homepage. I have the class files but would like to know of any
quick workaround to make the embedded Flash movie clickable without
reworking the AS3 files. What I would like to do is if you click on
a thmbnail or anywhere in the movie, the "portfolio" page loads. I
asume this would use javascript? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I notice that when I click on the thumbnails in the browser,
a "0" appears on top of each thumb. When i test in Flash preview
clicking on an image generates:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL

Embedded flash in PDF - Adobe links not working

Super annoyed here.
We have a bunch of PDF's used in public education by teachers all over which have flash embedded (yes some not so smart person created them)
Until 3 weeks ago Reader would send the user to the page: Acrobat Help | Flash Player needed | Acrobat, Reader XI
Which had two links in that would make Reader work with the embedded flash. (http modified so links will show)
hoop://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_ax.exe
hoop://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe
Now of course they just get 404 errors. We still get this msg with the latest version of reader and latest version of flash...
Now I can't find anything to get the embedded flash to play and I have Special Education staff screaming.
Not a happy camper.
Shooter

Yes, these links are old - I will try to get them updated.
The correct links are
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
Flash Player for Mac OS X
